Section 18 Sophia's Counterattack 1
readx;
Although Sophia's words were not loud, they stabbed Situ Yushuang's heart like lightning, and at this moment, Sophia could even clearly see her sister's slightly pale face and discolorated lips, and the expression of silver teeth clenched proved that the contradiction in her heart was suddenly provoked by herself, which made her fall into a painful struggle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In fact, how could a smart woman like Situ Yushuang not consider the meaning of Sophia's words, even Situ Yushuang herself had to admit how fragile and selfish she seemed at this point, she could only avoid and escape this contradiction, but on the surface, she had to use strong and sonorous words to prove her inner weakness.
The Situ family and the Tang River Empire, the Tang River Empire and the entire Tang Clan, this layer by layer extends outward, and the extension is getting bigger and bigger, the meaning in his sister's words is undoubtedly negative, can the Situ family still represent the interests of the Tang River Empire? Can the Tang River Empire still represent the interests of the entire Tang people? If this answer is negative, it undoubtedly means that the Situ family is not qualified to demand that the Tang River Empire and the Tang people be loyal to it and let everyone die for him.
But if Situ Yushuang wants to say that the Situ family represents the interests of the Tang River Empire and the Tang people, this kind of unwillful words may be said to be righteous and strict in other people's mouths, but Situ Yushuang doesn't want to be duplicitous, especially in front of his sister. As early as more than 20 years ago, when the Luope people began to wreak havoc on the land of the Northwest County, the Situ family had gradually lost the interests of the Tang River Empire and the Tang people that it should represent, and then the situation worsened, the Liberians ignored the existence of the empire and brazenly attacked the Principality of Gerook, the Maqi Khans annexed Ankun and Jemelo, and later the fall of Yuejing, which has fully proved that the Situ family can no longer let the Tang Empire, the first power in the Eastern Continent, safeguard the interests of the Tang nation. The rebellion of the Taiping people proved this even more, and the Tang people had more options to choose their suitable representatives to protect their rights and interests, although this was only the most superficial and meager idea.
But all this is not enough to say that it is time for the Situ family to launch the stage of history, until the strong rise of Li Wufeng. In Situ Yushuang's words, the behemoth of Western Xinjiang created by Li Wufeng is actually a freak that gradually grows into a freak that is attached to the thin camel of the Tang River Empire, which is already crumbling, sucking its nutrients and even blood, and when it is full-fledged, it is when it grins at the mother who raised it and reveals its bloody mouth, which is also the most unacceptable side of Situ Yushuang from the emotional level.
Seeing that her sister fell into a state of confusion for a while, Sophia knew that now was not the time for mercy, her sister was a smart and determined person, she could see the situation clearly and also analyze the trend of the situation on the mainland, it was because of this that Sophia hoped that she could convince the other party, if it was just a fool who was stubborn and stubborn, Sophia didn't want to waste her tongue and energy to do useless work.
"Sister, you should see the current situation of the Tang River Empire very clearly, your eldest brother's performance sister doesn't believe you don't know, this kind of person who can even sell his own national territory for his own personal interests, my sister can't believe how long this kind of person can last this empire even if he sits on the throne, his rule is completely based on extremely weak military power, when he loses the economic basis for maintaining military power, he is afraid that if he wants to maintain his rule, he can only betray, and your brother seems to be more willing to sell his sovereignty and interests to the enemies of the empire。 As for your sixth brother, I can only say that if he is not in troubled times, maybe he can be a peaceful prince and live a happy life, when he is in today's ever-changing empire, whether he wants to or not, he will inevitably be involved in endless conspiracies and wars, and his little wisdom and ability can hardly control this chaotic and complicated situation, and it is even quite difficult to deal with it. It would be his nightmare for the Maqi Khans to eyeing the Five Lakes region, and if there were no other factors to restrain him, my sister should also know that the Five Lakes region would have been a county of the Maqi Khans for a long time. ”
Sophia's series of undisguised comments made Situ Yushuang also hear a little personal feeling in the other party's words, and his sixth brother didn't know why he was fascinated by his sister all of a sudden, and buzzed around Sophia like a fly, which is probably an important reason why Sophia made such a somewhat contemptuous comment on him, although Situ Yushuang also admitted that Sophia's evaluation of Situ Biao was not untrue.
Seeing Situ Yushuang hanging her head and being silent, Sophia continued her persuasion: "Sister, you should understand me, I am not a person with my own feelings** Cai is a person who changes his objective view at will, I believe you should also see the situation in the empire, no matter whether the Situ family wins or loses in the battle with Li Wufeng, the collapse of the empire will be inevitable, if Li Wufeng wins, then naturally there is no need to say much, if Li Wufeng is defeated, the system of the western frontier will be torn apart, the nomads will regain their strength, and the peninsula region will probably soon become the territory of the Maqi Khans and the Nanyang Alliance, and what about the empire that has exhausted its strength in this battle? Can the Macekhans and even the Milanese survive when they are fishermen? Anyone who is sensible should know it. ”
"Sister, what do you mean is that you want me to turn to support Li Wufeng to deal with my brothers, or persuade my brother to surrender to Li Wufeng and make Li Wufeng the new emperor of our Tang people?"
"Sister's words are a little too emotional, the sister did not ask her sister to do anything, and she has no right to ask her sister not to do anything, but the sister just hopes that her sister can put aside all her opinions and look at the current situation with a fair eye as much as possible, only in this way can my sister see clearly what way the interests of the Situ family can be preserved to the greatest extent. In the face of her sister's somewhat negative words, Sophia seemed more calm at this time, "If my sister thinks that fighting for the interests of the empire and even the Tang people may be able to exchange for the continuation of the current status of the Situ family, then my sister is really wrong." No one will let go of this kind of opportunity, not to mention the wolves around the empire, even those who have grown up in the empire's civil war, and the girl means that if Li Wufeng really falls in this battle. Didn't the establishment of the Tang River Empire also grow up through such a scene?"
Sophia's last few words seemed to have some stimulation for Situ Yushuang, Situ Yushuang fell silent again, what she deliberately avoided would never happen because of her avoidance, on the contrary, sometimes the attack would be even more violent, she already had some vague rumors, some of the so-called Four Heavenly Kings of the military world under her eldest brother had begun to have some slight remarks because the logistics of the legion could not be guaranteed enough, although this could not explain anything, but it was definitely a bad omen, if the army that claimed to be absolutely controlled in his hands had such a phenomenon, then what Sophia said was even more true。
"Sister, sister hopes that you can calm down and think about the future of the Situ family, if you really can't let go of the entire Situ family, sister thinks you might as well think about it from another angle. As the saying goes, take a step back and open the sky, many things that are too persistent will lead people to fall into a strange circle from which they can't extricate themselves, and now you have pushed all the upper classes of Yanjing, including the Situ family, to the opposite side of Li Wufeng, don't you think this kind of gambling is too risky, and you yourself are too selfish?"
Sophia's words finally angered Situ Yushuang, perhaps a little annoyed, Situ Yushuang's voice suddenly raised to a height that Sophia had never seen:" Enough, Sister Sophia, please pay attention to your identity, you and I are both adults, Situ Yushuang is not mentally retarded and not stupid, I have my own opinions, I understand your kindness, yes, I admit that sometimes I am a little selfish, whether it is the interests of the empire or the interests of the Tang family, compared to the interests of the Situ family, sometimes we have to make some sacrifices that are almost despicable, but I have no choice, please sister, you also understand my hardships. ”
From the anger and vitriol coldness at the beginning to the pain of the words later, Situ Yushuang found that he had never been so incoherent: "Sister, I will carefully consider your suggestion, but the decision made cannot be changed, sometimes I even hope that I will lie down and not wake up, but I lack this courage, okay, sister, sister is tired, sister may be a little out of shape today, sister first say sorry, I want to rest first." ”
Situ Yushuang, who looked sleepy and confused, couldn't remember how Sophia left her room, some fell on the embroidered couch in a daze, some dim lights swayed and changed various postures, this feeling of loneliness and helplessness in the silent night made Situ Yushuang feel desolate in his heart, and the satisfaction and excitement of Fang Cai had long disappeared, could it be that what he did really made the Situ family and all the people who followed the Situ family on the road to destruction? For the first time, Situ Yushuang reflected on what she had done.
