Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Chapter 1538: Live for yourself once!

"This, is what you mean?!"

"Are you going to destroy Ci'en Temple?!"

When everyone had left and only Lei Tong and the prime minister were left in the room, he stared at the prime minister viciously and asked angrily in a low growl.

You know, the influence and significance of Ci'en Temple on Leitong is extraordinary.

Where does a mere Huang Cheng get the courage from?

"Do you think the truth needs to be like this?!"

At this time, the Prime Minister was calmer. He looked at Lei Tong and shook his head.

"My dear, you are the most powerful person in the Great Zhou, and the last person of power in the court."

"If I had this idea, I would not have asked Huang Cheng to talk about it, but would have directly sent people to bring all the people in Ci'en Temple here. Wouldn't that be more deterrent?"

The prime minister's words were light, but they seemed to make sense.

With his current abilities and means, he can naturally do it.

"However, I don't bother to do that."

The Prime Minister's words were full of earnestness. He was a smart man and knew very well that he could not do everything at once to deal with someone like Lei Tong, otherwise Lei Tong would be completely exposed.

It will not be easy to recruit him again.

Sure enough, after the prime minister said this, Lei Tong became much quieter. He remained silent, and when he looked at the prime minister, there was a rare hint of peace in his eyes.

Noticing this subtle change, the Prime Minister was overjoyed. He had to admit that Huang Cheng did have some abilities and means.

At this time, the Prime Minister's evaluation of Huang Cheng also improved a bit.

After all, if Huang Cheng hadn't cooperated today, at least Lei Tong wouldn't have had the same attitude when looking at him.

As long as there is relaxation, it means there is opportunity.

"In fact, I know what you are insisting on."

"But, is it really worth it?!"

Strike while the iron is hot, the prime minister began his lobbying. And his words also made Lei Tong focus on him again.

It has to be said that because of the relationship with Ci'en Temple, in the eyes of the Prime Minister, it is enough to make Lei Tong change his attitude and opinion towards himself.

Sure enough, this time Lei Tong did not respond directly, but he did not fight back either.

This alone made the prime minister very happy because he saw an opportunity.

"If Zhou Zheng really cared about you, he wouldn't have come to rescue you now."

This time, the prime minister's words were quite straightforward, even so straightforward that it made people feel a little panicked.

“Maybe now the power disparity between the two sides is so huge that it’s impossible to send someone to rescue you, but he didn’t even send someone to negotiate.”

"Do you know why?"

The Prime Minister ignored Lei Tong's reaction and continued to speak to himself.

But this time, he clearly did not see any fluctuation in Lei Tong's pupils, and even his head turned a little, and began to look at him unconsciously.

This is human nature.

Human nature always wants to explore the truth and get an answer.

"There is only one person who is willing, and that is you, Lei Tong. You are not that important. At least in Zhou Zheng's eyes, your importance is too low."

The Prime Minister stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back and a determined look on his face.

He has experienced ups and downs in the court for decades, has seen countless officialdom, and has gone through many things.

The Prime Minister knows better than anyone that in the face of real interests, anything can be abandoned.

Of course he knew that Zhou Zheng would definitely not be willing to part with Lei Tong, and he also knew that Zhou Zheng would definitely want to rescue Lei Tong, so he never avoided this point, but he also knew that Zhou Zheng wanting to rescue and Zhou Zheng actually coming to rescue were two different concepts.

This is also the reason why the Prime Minister is willing to postpone the time of the decisive battle and wait for Lei Tong to wake up.

Because he knew that Zhou Zheng would never come to save Lei Tong.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

Since ancient times, those who have been able to become powerful people are bound to be heartless and disloyal.

The emperor is always alone. He only cares about one kind of benefit, which is himself. Other than that, everything else can be sacrificed.

It was obvious that Lei Tong was the victim.

At this moment, Lei Tong's breathing became much faster.

His expression changed slightly, and even though he hid it well, the prime minister still caught it sharply.

This further strengthened the Prime Minister's thoughts and confidence.

"Let's take a step back and say that Zhou Zheng is in a lot of trouble right now, and he doesn't even know that you are still alive."

"But what did he do while you were alive!?"

The prime minister continued to intensify his offensive.

"Your existence is extremely important to Zhou Zheng's success."

"But have you been promoted to a higher position? Have you been made a marquis or a prime minister? Have you returned home in glory and honor?!"

"No, none!"

This time, the Prime Minister's voice was louder, and even trembled a little when he was emotional.

"Your contribution, if it were anyone else, would be enough to make you famous all over the world, but go out and ask, how many people in the world know the name of Lei Tong!?"

"These things are easy for Zhou Zheng, but why doesn't he do them?"

"You, are you really not surprised?"

I have to say that the Prime Minister's strategy of attacking people's minds was really powerful, and even made Lei Tong understand the other party's logic for a moment.

He looked at the prime minister, his facial expression somewhat out of control.

"I'm telling you the truth, because Zhou Zheng's so-called great benevolence and righteousness are not true."

"His great benevolence and righteousness are only for the people of the world. He is heartless and ungrateful to the people around him, whether it's you Shi Sui or Yan Pan, or even Zhou Ping and Xiao Guan!"

"People praise Zhou Zheng because they have gained tangible benefits."

"Why is Zhou Zheng willing to give them benefits? Because they will not threaten Zhou Zheng, and may even increase his reputation."

"But you are different!"

The prime minister's indoctrination was extremely fast, to the point, and quite accurate. For a moment, Lei Tong even felt that he was being brainwashed.

"No! No! No!"

"Stop talking, stop talking!"

Finally, Lei Tong seemed to collapse. He gritted his teeth, his eyes already filled with tears. He stared at the prime minister and waved his hands continuously.

Seeing this, the Prime Minister would never let go of this opportunity.

He knew that Lei Tong's state of mind would be shattered at this moment, and he would never let go easily.

"He, Zhou Zheng, has never really cared about you. To him, you are just tools."

"Without you, Thunder Copper, he has other tools to use!"

"He is so heartless and disloyal, do you really want to be devoted to him?!"

The Prime Minister's voice was almost a roar.

At this time, Lei Tong's face was pale, his eyes were dull, and his whole body seemed numb.

"Have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to be in your life?"

"Have you ever thought about living for yourself?!"

The prime minister was very disappointed with Lei Tong, and seemed to be looking at him with a distressed look.

"wake up!"

"You've died for Zhou Zheng many times!"
