The King of Jin suddenly burst into laughter.

"At the end of my rope, I still met someone as interesting and honest as you. God has been kind to me. It's a pity that I didn't get to know Chen Yucheng earlier and missed many opportunities."

Chen Guanlou laughed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for thinking highly of me. However, even if you had known me earlier, I would have kept my distance from you."

"Why?"

"Because you are a loser!" Chen Guanlou said bluntly, scaring the jailers present and lowering their heads, wishing they had never existed.

His Royal Highness the King of Jin really changed his expression, as if he had been stung and suffered the greatest humiliation in his life.

He gnashed his teeth and stared at the other party, "Do you look down on me?"

"As a loser, you must have the consciousness of a loser. If you lose, you must admit it and be prepared to die. I know that you nobles usually don't want to admit your fate and think highly of yourself. But there is only one position after all, and there are many brothers. If you are not brave enough and not ruthless enough, it is normal to lose your life." Chen Guanlou talked about life and death casually as if he was discussing what to eat tonight, and didn't take the anger of King Jin seriously at all.

He is such a person.

In his eyes, no matter rich or poor, noble or humble, if you like him, he will be polite. If you don't like him, he will spit a few times.

The poisonous tongue Chen Yucheng is well-deserved.

As for the mood of the people he spitted, whether they are stable or not, he never cares. He only cares about his own happiness and doesn't care about the life and death of others. A typical person who likes to be beaten, he didn't get put in a sack and beaten to death, all thanks to his high cultivation.

"From what you said, you seem to have a lot of experience. If you were in my position, what would you do?"

Prince Jin calmed down in a moment. He was able to control his emotions, which was worth affirming.

Chen Guanlou didn't indulge him, pointing at the prison door, "Your Highness, please come in!"

If you don't enter the cell, nothing will happen.

If you want to chat, fine!

If you stay in the cell honestly, there will be plenty of time to chat.

He is the chief of the Tianlao Prison, and he has never forgotten his duties.

Prince Jin was furious, glared fiercely, and stepped into the cell unwillingly.

Bang!

Chen Guanlou personally closed the prison door and locked it. He waved his hand and sent away the jailer who pretended to be a quail.

He leaned against the opposite wall and said casually: "Sitting in your position, what should I do? When the late emperor was alive, I certainly acted like a spoiled braggart to get power. If I couldn't get power, I would still show my presence so that the late emperor would remember me as a good son.

When the late emperor was in a coma, I should have acted decisively, taken the palace with lightning speed, and imprisoned all the princes, including that one. I should have persuaded the political affairs hall to support me with emotion and reason. If you don't want to, then sorry, go see the ancestors."

"Doing this will damage your reputation. I'm afraid that after you take the throne, you will not be able to escape the world's criticism!" King Jin said disapprovingly.

Chen Guanlou sneered, his expression a little incredible, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

He smiled and said, "In the face of life and death, in the face of imperial power, in the face of that chair, reputation is nothing. You, you princes, have been corrupted by those Confucian scholars. In the face of life and death, in the struggle for power, you are still considering reputation.

History books are written by the victors. Even if you can't change the history books, will your bad reputation affect your status as emperor? Look at you, you were poisoned by Confucian scholars, what is the result? How good can your reputation be? Guess how history books will evaluate you after you die. Will they show mercy and praise you for your kindness because you are concerned about your reputation and don't kill your brothers? Are you stupid!"

King Jin has lived for decades, and this is the first time that someone pointed at his nose and called him an idiot in front of him. He couldn't save face.

He changed his face on the spot.

"Chen Yucheng, although I am a prisoner, I am still the King of Jin of the Dagan Dynasty. You'd better be polite when you speak."

"I want to be polite, but you are so stupid that you still insist on not changing your ways. Tsk tsk, I really can't help but speak out. Please forgive me, Your Majesty! In my opinion, all the princes of your generation have become fools under the oppression of the late emperor. They are enterprising and ambitious, but they lack the ability to act. The late emperor was such a tyrant that the court officials were in an uproar, but none of you sons could seize the opportunity. You are so stupid!"

Chen Guanlou spoke his mind.

There are some things that he has been holding back for years and has wanted to say for a long time.

Emperor Taixing is such a powerful person that he plays all the dignitaries in the court at his fingertips. The court officials quarreled all day long, but they couldn't do anything to him. The court officials couldn't even touch a hair with a Jiangtu.

Such a powerful person gave birth to sons who were more useless than each other. It was indeed mean reversion, and the emperor's family could not escape this rule!

He saw only two words on the emperor and these princes: mediocrity!

Emperor Jianshi was a little strong, but also limited. But he had an advantage: he had a very smart think tank around him, and he could listen to the advice of the think tank.

He guessed that Emperor Jianshi dared to move the King of Jin at this time, and it was most likely the plan given by the think tank represented by Xie Changling.

This plan was not good, and it could even be called risky.

The safe approach was to wait at least three to five years before taking action.

It was only the first year of Jianshi, and he was in a hurry to take action. It was too ugly. The reputation of brothers killing each other spread, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu would definitely take advantage of it to add bricks and tiles to the rebellion.

Without discussing the position, just talking about courage and execution, the King of Chu was several times better than these princes. He dared to rebel when Emperor Taixing was in power. He was a warrior! And he was able to withstand the offensive of Emperor Taixing, which showed that he was quite capable.

Now the King of Chu is fighting the Emperor Jianshi. Even if he cannot win, he can probably draw a tie.

"Don't talk nonsense! As a son and a minister, how can we rebel?" When he said the word "rebellion", His Royal Highness the King of Jin subconsciously lowered his voice. Although he knew that there was no one around who could eavesdrop.

No one could eavesdrop under the nose of a ninth-grade warrior, unless they were a master.

"So you became a prisoner!" Chen Guanlou laughed at the other party without any sympathy, watching the other party's jokes, and did not give the King of Jin any respect at all.

The King of Jin was furious, "Chen Yucheng, you are such a villain."

"Even if I am a villain, I am a real villain! Your Majesty, you don't need flattery now, but someone who dares to tell you the truth. In this way, when you leave this world, you will know where you lost and where you made mistakes. How many opportunities to get promoted have you missed. Reflect on it! The struggle for imperial power has always been a fight to the death. Haha, you are really brothers and sisters."

Chen Guanlou was full of sarcasm.

According to his understanding, after the explosion at the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, when Emperor Taixing fell into a coma, he should have picked up a knife and started killing. Instead of being gentle and talking about rules, ethics and reputation. Being educated by Confucianism to be hypocritical and timid, he deserved to lose!
