Pathological Trapping - Chap 112
Li Dezhuang felt that if he had a tail, it would be swinging wildly behind him at this moment, comparable to a windshield wiper running at three times the speed.
He grabbed him, “Then I’ll get some sleep.”
”Um.”
”Don’t run away…”
”Go to sleep.”
His voice became softer and softer, “No matter who told you not to go… Wait until I wake up, when I wake up… Kill him…”
Li Dezhuang did not answer, as the person next to him had fallen asleep.
The eunuch beside the emperor had been waiting at the door for a long time. He estimated that the time was about right, so he lowered his body and went in. Li Dezhuang had already gotten off the bed and tucked in the quilt for Mu Jian.
”Mr. Li, the emperor wants you to come over.”
Li Dezhuang turned around and said, “Okay.”
The eunuch took him to the riverside. There was no emperor there, only a young military officer. Li Dezhuang had never seen him, but he had seen what he was holding.
–knife.
Li Dezhuang laughed: “The emperor can’t tolerate me.”
The eldest eunuch cupped his hands and said, “The heir of the royal family is willing to risk his life for Master Li. This is a blessing for Master Li, but a disaster for the court. If Master Li doesn’t die, the Ninth Prince cannot inherit the throne.”
Li Dezhuang smiled even more.
“For me, it may not be a blessing.”
To him, Mu Jian was a disaster, a net, a shackle, a pain, and also…
Li Dezhuang closed his eyes and said, “You can’t escape, right?”
The military officer said, “Of course.”
The emperor is determined to kill and must see the body.
Li Dezhuang sighed.
Why can’t I escape anywhere…
Other people who travel through books live such awesome lives, but when it comes to me, I feel so miserable from beginning to end.
In his next life, he must learn math, physics and chemistry well!
If I ever have the bad luck to travel through a book again, I will still have a chance to show my talents.
The military officer approached and said, “If Master Li has any last words, I can convey them to him.”
Li Dezhuang shook his head.
He has no relatives here.
When he was dying, the only person who could be considered close to him was Mu Jian.
This bastard gave him pain and love at the same time.
”I only have a little regret now.”
Military officer: “What do you regret? Did you meet His Majesty the Ninth Prince?”
Li Dezhuang shook his head.
If I had known that I couldn’t escape the fate of becoming gay, I should have taught Mu Jian the correct way to pursue and love someone when he was still young!
The military officer cupped his hands and said, “Then I will send Master Li on his way.”
The sharp blade suddenly pierced into his abdomen.
The pain made Li Dezhuang curl up.
Blood dripped at his feet.
One drop…
Two drops…
It looked very much like the blood that Mu Jian had dripped onto his face.
Darkness and coldness gradually engulfed Li Dezhuang. He could no longer support himself and fell to the ground.
Before he was completely enveloped by darkness, he saw Mu Jian’s smiling face as a child, wearing a patched cotton coat.
With his red, frozen hands, he said, “Guard Li, I like you. I like you the most.”
Chapter 87 Ascending to the throne of the crown prince
Mu Jian was seriously injured. After he fell asleep, he was in a coma for several days and had a fever.
When he was delirious with fever, he fumbled around and called out to Li Dezhuang. None of the servants dared to answer him, as they had not seen Guard Li since returning from the spring hunt.
Once, Mu Jian woke up and looked for someone. He rolled off the bed. Li Yu helped him back to bed and comforted him, saying that he was afraid that the disease would be passed on to Guard Li, so he let him go to the side hall to rest.
From then on, Mu Jian heard a lie every day.
Today it was Guard Li who was decocting medicine for him.
Tomorrow it will be Guard Li who will prepare soup for him.
On the third day, Mu Jian’s condition improved slightly, and he insisted on getting out of bed to see for himself. Seven or eight servants stopped him. Before he even reached the door, someone came to report the news.
The imperial edict has arrived.
The eunuch who came to announce the decree was the senior eunuch beside the emperor.
This shows how important this imperial edict is.
The servants were all guessing that the imperial edict for enthronement had probably arrived.
Mu Jian was supported by someone to receive the imperial edict.
As he walked, he looked around for Li Dezhuang. After two steps without finding him, his pale face was covered with a layer of frost.
He suddenly threw away the servant who was supporting him and shouted, “Why are you supporting me? Get Guard Li!”
The servant was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
Mu Jian’s face was gloomy, and he shook off the other person who was supporting him. His weak body swayed in the wind for a while before he managed to stand firm. “Where is he? Where is he?!”
The servants dared not speak.
Mu Jian kicked away the servant who was kneeling beside him.
”I’ll go find it myself!”
The servant kneeling on the ground hugged Mu Jian’s thighs.
”Your Highness! You are asked to go and receive the imperial edict! Your Highness!”
It is a serious crime to disobey the order.
Mu Jian kicked the man over and said, “Since when did you dare to meddle in my affairs?!”
He left the eunuch who was announcing the decree at the door and the servants who were kneeling in the yard, and hurried to look for someone.
After walking only two steps, he could no longer hold on and stopped to rest against the wall. Perhaps after slowing down a bit, he hurried forward again, this time almost reaching the end of the corridor in one breath before stopping, holding on to the wall and breathing heavily, and did not move forward any further.
Because there was a person kneeling at the corner.
——Li Yu.
Mu Jian looked at him without saying a word, standing still like a silent statue.
Even though the servants behind him couldn’t see Mu Jian’s face, they could feel a chill emanating from His Highness, as if winter was coming.
After a long while, His Highness asked the kneeling man.
”He ran away?”
Your Highness did not receive a positive answer.
There was a long, deathly silence.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but the eunuch who was in charge of announcing the imperial decree came to urge him to come out. He asked why the Ninth Prince hadn’t come out yet.
