Pathological Trapping - Chap 115
”You… you killed the king… you killed the father…”
Mu Jian smiled and shook his head, saying softly, “Please, Father, I will go to the funeral.”
After saying that, he stabbed down fiercely with the knife in his hand.
The old emperor spat out a mouthful of blood and died with his eyes open.
Blood splattered on Mu Jian’s shoes.
He didn’t care, he drew his knife and pointed it at the doctor, “Do you know what to say?”
The imperial physician kowtowed suddenly, his clothes were damp and smelled of urine. “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he was seriously ill and died suddenly without any cure.”
Mu Jian smiled, “It’s a useful tongue, so keep it.”
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the military officer on the ground, slowly put the knife against his abdomen, leaned closer and lowered his voice, and asked him.
”It’s your turn. Where did you stab Guard Li?”
The military officer looked pale.
He had never seen such a scene, such a crazy prince!
It’s just a madman!
devil!
He will die!
You will die!
He trembled, looked at the knife that was about to pierce his body, and screamed like crazy.
”He, he’s not dead! Not dead!”
Chapter 89: Does everything he said to me about liking me no longer count?
“Bang.”
The knife in his hand fell to the ground.
The military officer was speaking incoherently and was trembling all over the place.
”I arranged for Master Li to be at Yanmen Pass now. Liu Yong asked me to spare his life in case of emergency.
Liu Yong and I are good friends. He showed me the picture drawn by Mr. Li. He was a talented person, and it would be a pity if he died. So I kept his name and let him go…”
Mu Jian grabbed the military officer’s neck and said fiercely.
”How long have you been gone?!”
Words were squeezed out from the military attaché’s neck, “Almost, almost two months…”
Mu Jian’s face darkened, he stood up and rushed outside.
Li Yu knelt in front of him, “Your Highness! The emperor has passed away, and you are wearing the dragon robe. You cannot leave the capital at this moment!”
“Get lost!”
Li Yu kowtowed suddenly on the ground.
There was a thud sound.
”Your Highness! It’s been almost two months, and any injuries should have healed. He didn’t come back, which means he doesn’t want to come back, Your Highness!”
Mu Jian suddenly stopped.
This sentence made him feel like he was at the bottom of the sea. It was dark, cold, and he was sinking continuously.
It’s been almost two months.
When he was struggling and suffering over his death, Li Dezhuang didn’t even give him any news.
He just wanted him to think.
Is he dead?
The sudden surge of anger burned Mu Jian’s forehead so hard that veins popped out.
He suddenly took off the jade pendant that he had cherished for nearly two months, not wanting even a speck of dust to fall on it, and threw it to the ground. With a bang, the jade pendant exploded.
He roared, “This is exactly what he wanted, isn’t it?!”
The people kneeling on the ground didn’t dare to speak or look up.
Du Yanqiu stood aside, looking at Mu Jian without saying a word.
Mu Jian gritted his teeth and trembled.
The scarlet eyes were covered with a layer of mist, flickering faintly under the candlelight.
He spoke each word with gritted teeth.
It seemed as if every word was filled with his flesh and blood.
”How did I do anything wrong to him?”
We have known each other since childhood.
They have gone through so many years together and spent so many nights together.
So long…
When I count them carefully, these years and days are so long.
Mu Jian grew up in the cold palace where people were cold and indifferent, and in the magnificent palace city. He was used to the killings in the palace, and also saw the gorgeousness in the imperial palace in the capital.
But in his eyes, none of them were as good as Li Dezhuang.
He is like the bright moon and the dawn.
Using half a lifetime of gentle smiles, she warmed up the little warmth under Mu Jian’s skin, like a little candlelight in the dark night.
Mu Jian carefully guarded that piece of warmth and gave all his enthusiasm to the person who lit up his life.
But he doesn’t want it.
Mu Jian felt a pain in his chest, and his entire chest was filled with bloody pain. He looked at the broken jade pendant on the ground that reflected the candlelight with hatred. He stared at it for a long time, then went to pick it up, picked it up, and put it back together.
A handful of fragments was covered by the palm of the hand.
Mu Jian leaned on the table and cried like a child.
The moon he wanted would never shine its light on him again.
When the emperor passed away, the country mourned for three days.
Everyone said that the prince was kind and filial, but he knelt in the mourning hall, refusing to eat or drink, his face was pale, and half of his soul had gone.
When he came out of the mourning hall, he was still supported by the eunuchs. After being ill for two days, he appeared in the court, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. There was no trace of the smile of a young man in his eyes and eyebrows.
Everyone thought that it was the dragon throne, which was lonely up there.
Only Li Yu knew that Mu Jian did it because of Master Li.
When the emperor passed away, people from all over the country rushed to mourn and submitted memorials.
Yanmen Pass is no exception.
But Mu Jian read the memorial handed over by Yanmen Pass several times, and there was not a single word about Li Dezhuang. There was not a single word asking whether he was well.
It was as if Li Dezhuang was really dead and disappeared from this world.
Mu Jian sat on a chair in the imperial study. On the desk was a pile of memorials waiting for review, but in front of Mu Jian was only the memorial from Yanmen Pass. He would stare at it without moving or saying a word.
Li Yu walked in from the outside and knelt down to salute, “Your Majesty, Concubine Li has sent someone to discuss the matter of establishing the Queen.”
Mu Jian originally worked with Du Yanqiu.
Not only does he want to protect the glory of the Shangshu Mansion, but after the success, he also wants Du Yanqiu to ascend the throne of Queen Mother and enjoy wealth and prosperity forever.
Mu Jian had no intention of dealing with these trivial matters and said casually.
”If you want to ban her, just do it. Then kill her after banning her.”
