Guo Peng's words are always very interesting.

This taste is not sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, but the complex existence created by the interweaving of various life flavors.

At first, Guo Jin could only taste sweet and sour, but later he tasted salt and spicy. Only now can he taste a trace of real sadness.

He began to feel what Guo Peng pursued and what he wanted to go through.

All bitter.

"It is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country. My son understands."

"Just understand, don't think that the emperor is the most respectable emperor. No emperor who can hold the throne firmly is a loser. It is more difficult to govern the country than to create a country.

People’s talents are always limited, and it is impossible to do many things well at the same time. Some emperors are good at governing the country, while others are good at fighting wars. There are very few of them. It would be great if you can keep the country firmly."

Guo Peng held Guo Jin's hand.

Guo Jin nodded silently.

"My son will do his best to keep the country firmly, and will never let his father's efforts go to waste."

“That’s right.”

Guo Peng stood up and looked at the world map hanging behind him: "A Jin, there is something that my father thinks is time to talk to you."

"Father, please tell me."

Guo Jin also looked at the wonderful map of the world that made him unable to believe it was a real existence.

"When you abdicate for your father and become the emperor, how do you plan to arrange your brothers?"

Guo Peng spoke slowly.

Guo Jin blinked and looked at Guo Peng who was looking at the world map in surprise.

"Son...of course he will treat them well."

"Treat good? How to treat the law well? Appoint an official? Appoint a king? Appoint an external? Appoint an internal? Or some other means?"

Guo Peng turned his head and looked at Guo Jin.

Guo Jin was silent for a while, and suddenly realized that this was a formal, rigorous and important conversation.

It may be related to whether he can successfully inherit Guo Peng's status and whether he can become the emperor in the future.

It must be taken seriously and not slackened.

So he pursed his lips and said, "My son thought he could not be crowned kings to his brothers, nor could he be conferred unanimously at will."

"Why?"

"Above the king is the emperor. If they have been granted a title to them, it would be fine if they are satisfied. If they are not satisfied, or if some of their confidants are not satisfied, they will be able to use the court disputes to seek further possibilities for them at any time. This possibility is unacceptable to the son."

Guo Jin took a deep breath and made an open and honest statement: "At most, it is impossible to be granted a king. Official positions or other official positions cannot be given real power. It can only be a false position, let alone a country, nor should it be a ban on the country when you go out. This is the son's opinion."

"You care about this kind of thing very much, so you have thought about it in advance and prepare for the future?"

Guo Peng looked at Guo Jin with a smile.

"The father conferred his son as the crown prince, and the son naturally regarded himself as the crown prince. In the future, the first thing he had to do is to consolidate his power. It is impossible to allow any uncontrollable force to hinder his son's centralization.

There are no two days and no two masters in the earth. If a country has two voices or more, it will inevitably be in chaos. Even war breaks out for this. After all, the people suffer, so the son thinks it is not possible."

Guo Jin said so.

"good."

Guo Peng nodded: "This is like an emperor. Remember, there is only one imperial power and cannot be divided. Even if the other party is your legitimate brother, you cannot let go."

"Son understand."

Guo Jin nodded.

"But if this is the case, it may not be safe enough. Your brothers are always there. They are born with the right to inherit the throne and are born with your competitors. Even if your status is stable, how can you ensure that there will be no problems when you want to inherit the throne?"

Guo Peng raised new questions.

Guo Jin frowned.

"Father, this kind of thing is too illusory. It is difficult to get the correct answer to what happened decades later. My son can't think of it so far."

"But you have to think, you have to be clear that your status may be threatened at any time. This threat exists. All your brothers are well-educated, not incompetent.

They have all received civil and military education, but what they lack is not knowledge, but experience. With a little experience, they can be competent for at least two thousand stones. Your second brother has political experience and has already entered politics, so he is a threat to you."

Guo Peng stared at Guo Jin.

Guo Jin didn't expect Guo Peng to speak so naked in front of him.

For a while, he was unable to confirm what Guo Peng's purpose was to say this.

Is it a test?

It tests whether his mind as a brother and emperor can take on his responsibilities to his brothers?

Or should I consider him from the bottom of my heart?

As a father, can you really do this?

His brothers are also the father's sons.

"There is only one throne, and my son will not allow such a thing to happen."

Guo Jin hesitated for a moment and gave his own answer.

He felt that no matter when, the most important thing was the throne and power, both of which were indispensable, and then the others.

Brotherly ties or something can be placed in the back row.

"Will you use every means to ensure your status?"

“…”

Guo Jin was a little nervous, and he didn't even dare to look Guo Peng in the eyes: "If necessary, for the sake of national stability."

He didn't finish his words, and he didn't dare to finish them.

Guo Peng was silent for a while.

Then he sighed deeply.

"A Jin, as the emperor, I am very happy to see the crown prince he chose is so enlightened. This is a good thing. It proves that you are mentally prepared to be an emperor. You will not panic. You will quickly settle the throne and start to rule.

But as a father, I don’t want to see you have such enlightenment. It is said that the Tian family has no affection. Indeed, the Tian family should not have such feelings, but the Tian family also exists. I don’t want to see your brothers kill each other because of the throne.”

Guo Jin thought for a moment and knelt on the ground.

"Father and son promise that under what circumstances, there will never be any traitors."

"In other words, your last method is to be placed under house arrest until death?"

Guo Peng looked at Guo Jin kneeling on the ground.

Guo Jin didn't say anything, and he agreed.

"You are a good brother who can do this."

Guo Peng sighed and helped Guo Jin up: "There are many things in the world that have no answers, or no one can find them yet. When I decided to let you be the prince, I thought about such things with your mother.

This day will come eventually, you will be the emperor after all, and one day you will go to Langjuxu Mountain with your mother. If you don’t solve some things, the emperor of the father will not do so competently. This is how you feel for your father.”

"Father means..."

"Don't worry, for everyone, you know the importance of power, and you will never leave you a hidden danger."

Guo Peng smiled, patted Guo Jin on the back, and pointed to the world map: "Look, this is the solution to this problem that my father found for you that his predecessors had never tried."

Guo Jin was full of question marks.

"Father?"

"Don't you understand? This huge world is enough to accommodate you brothers."

Guo Peng said, "Do you remember the extreme empire that my father told you?"

"Remember."

"As long as your brothers' respective countries are more than three months away, you will never be able to have conflicts or confrontations, and no one can threaten each other, because the government orders cannot be transmitted smoothly, and there will definitely be problems.

Starting from Luoyang, three months away, is the fiefs of your brothers. If you seal it in those places, your brothers can live in peace with you."

“…………”

Guo Jin looked at Guo Peng and then looked at the world map, and he was really stupid.

"ah?"

"What, I'm working hard for your brothers for your father, I thought of a good idea. It's good for your brothers, good for the State of Wei, and good for all the people."

Guo Peng pointed to the land and large islands marked on the map.

"Look at these places, some have been explored, some have not been explored, and I don't know if there are countries and strong enemies above, but it doesn't matter, we can explore them.

Then occupy, then build, and finally survive there, while deciding to abdicate for you, you have already begun to build large sea boats for your brothers.

For the father, I plan to seal them into these places and let them establish new countries. In these places that cannot threaten your status, recreate China. In the future, there will be China besides China.

What will happen in ten or a hundred years? What kind of grand occasion will it be if the descendants of China reproduce and grow, connect with each other in these places, and expand their power to a level beyond the reach of their predecessors?"

Guo Peng described that he seemed to yearn for such a future.

After hearing this, Guo Jin stared at the world map in a daze, as if he had seen something completely unacceptable, and could not soothe his mood for a long time.

"Father, this...the son has never heard of these."

"Of course you have never heard of it, because before that, Father could not be sure whether these things could be done. Father did not know whether our sea ship could send them to those places. Now it seems that it is OK.

Send them to these large lands, to these large islands, and let them develop and build these places. Your distance is too far to cause conflict. You will not mobilize troops to attack them, nor will they be stupid enough to counterattack.

No one can plan for anyone, so they will be at peace and develop their own way. They will start from scratch, build their own country from nothing, and you will have to hold the throne firmly and govern the Wei Kingdom well.

In the future, your brothers will gain a foothold overseas and you will gain a foothold in Wei State, and you will be able to communicate with each other and make the entire China bigger and bigger."
