The quiet hall was filled with a strong and unsightly smell of blood.

Murong Haochen, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, looked down at Changsun Pingtao, who had been kneeling on the ground.

Changsun Pingtao didn't even dare to raise his head, his white lips had long dried up. His hands were covered with blood all over his body.

The trembling body is like a life wandering extremely on the edge of a cliff, unable to escape, and it is really a feeling that life is worse than death.

Murong Haochen waited for their father and daughter to arrive very leisurely, with a sly smile on his lips.

"Ping Tao, why did you..."

Seeing the blood all over his body, the eldest grandson Chengde looked closer in panic. Even the eldest grandson Guanji couldn't bear to cover his mouth. Seeing that his right arm was empty and the bloodstains all over his body turned out to be...

Hearing this, Changsun Pingtao trembled slightly, and slowly moved towards the two of them with difficulty. He even grabbed his father's sleeve with his other hand with great difficulty, enduring the pain on his body, and begged bitterly.

: "Dad, please save me. Your Majesty, you want to kill me."

kill?

Changsun Chengde looked at the kind-faced and ruthless Murong Haochen, thinking that he was just too arrogant and arrogant, but he didn't expect that he would actually take one of Ping Tao's hands.

This is simply more vicious than killing him.

When I looked at his mutilated arm, I saw that it was different from a cripple, but I didn't know why he did this.

Yesterday, I learned that he was in jail and asked Guan Ji to plead for mercy, but now he looks like this.

"Your Majesty, what crime did Ping Tao commit that warrants cutting off one of his arms?"

What crime was committed?

This sentence was such an understatement. I'm afraid they didn't know that Changsun Pingtao had touched upon something he was most taboo about.

Murong Haochen stood up slowly with a disdainful smile and walked down leisurely. Looking at his half-disabled appearance, he was really upset.

"He touched something he shouldn't have touched, and I will naturally punish him."

As soon as the eldest grandson Guanji looked at his father's angry eyes, he knew that he would be blamed for this matter. What's more, the eldest grandson Pingxi was the only son in the family, so he was naturally more valuable than anyone else.

Seeing this situation, the eldest grandson Guanji naturally didn't care so much. He knelt in front of him, grabbed his clothes tightly, and pretended to cry: "Your Majesty, yesterday you promised me that you would meet me."

I have spared the life of a flat marmoset, and you have no words for it."

You have no joke?

He had already made it clear. As for the hand behind his back, it was far inferior to the Changsun family's, but he was just giving it back to them.

"My promise to the Queen was true, but I only said that she would spare her life, and I did not say that I would not chop off one of her hands."

After hearing that, the eldest grandson Guanji couldn't help but slumped aside. She never thought that even if her plea was false, Murong Haochen had broken his promise to her. Yesterday, in order to protect the eldest grandson Pingji, he actually gave away such and other items.

He told him the secret of the matter, but now it was too easy for him to trust his words.

"Dad, the emperor is pretending to punish me. He randomly found a woman and seduced me. The emperor kept saying that he wanted to kill me."

He knew that his father's weight in the court was so important that Murong Haochen could not do anything to him. After all, Murong Haochen's throne was still dependent on his eldest sister's support. If not, it would still have to be done in terms of face.

.

Now, he had his hand chopped off while he was still alive. And when he was in prison, no matter how much he begged for mercy, he was so ruthless.

The eldest son, Chengde, couldn't bear to look at his son's mutilated hand, but it seemed that this matter was carefully planned by Murong Haochen.

For a woman to hurt him like this was clearly a warning to others.

"Your Majesty, this is too much. This makes the world..."

"This world is naturally my world. There is no need for the Prime Minister to say more." He was not afraid of how many comments there were in the world, just because he had the ability to become stronger. He looked at the eldest son Ping Tao with a look of disgust on his face,

The hatred in his eyes resolutely emerged. "The eldest Sun Ping Tao touched my woman, and I have already done my best to benevolent and righteous before I even touched his hands."

For a moment the night before, he really wanted to take his life. But in the end, he still gave it a try. Just because there was something he had not done yet.

woman?

I heard that the eldest grandson Guanji knew who the person he was talking about was. Besides, it was completely unknown how Ye Yilan would appear in Liuxiang.

She was dubious and didn't dare to believe it, so she defended herself and said: "Your Majesty, Chen Zhaoyi is in the palace, how can he go out of the palace to seduce Ping Tao?"

"Yesterday, Chen Zhaoyi was kidnapped. If not for my retribution, Chen Zhaoyi would have been defiled by the Prime Minister's son."

"Dad, the emperor is trying to inflict a crime. My son has never done it, so dad wants to make the decision for me."

"What a shame. You dared to accuse the emperor of doing such a shameful thing. Why don't you please apologize to the emperor."

The eldest son Chengde could see that what Murong Haochen said was not false. Although it was false, there was no one to testify. Moreover, he had already blocked the news about this matter, so he naturally wanted to investigate, but Ping Tao was already half-disabled, and now he was left alone.

His life can be considered as having survived.

I just didn't expect that Murong Haochen's methods in recent years have become really powerful.

"There's no need to apologize, not to mention he has already been punished."

Murong Haochen knew the purpose of what he said, not to mention that the eldest son Pingmo had no intention of repenting at all just now. It was just because he relied on his father's current power.

An evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly and calmly: "Now Anling is a place where people are employed, why not let your son go there."

"Your Majesty, Ping Tao knows he has made a big mistake. He is already one-armed and is a useless person. He cannot go to Anling."

Can't go?

Murong Haochen was waiting for his words. He pretended to frown and said lazily: "I think the Prime Minister also knows something about the rumors in Anling. If the person who framed the frame is found, the Prime Minister feels that the merits are equal to the faults.

?"

Hearing Murong Haochen talk about Anling, the eldest grandson Guanji was always in a state of panic. After all, if he hadn't been told this matter, how could Ping Tao's life be exchanged for it.

It turned out that everything he said yesterday was just to force himself to speak. In his eyes, there was only the meaning of exchange and not too much interaction. Everything was nothing more than his own random thoughts.

"I will bring the conspirator with me to prove my innocence. I hope the emperor will forgive me for a few days."

Gradually, I began to realize that everything Murong Haochen did was ultimately for Ye Xunyu's so-called rumors.

"I will appoint the best imperial doctor to serve as a political official for the dog. In the past few days, the Queen must work harder and take more care of her younger brother in the palace."

After hearing this, the eldest son Chengde never thought that he was even more cunning than himself. For fear of finding an impostor, he deliberately locked Ping Tao into the palace like a hostage.

In these years, Murong Haochen has never shown his talents, but now he really does everything for the Ye family.

"My concubine, I will definitely find a place to stay..."

"I have ordered you to choose a residence. I will live in the Xuan Pavilion."

"No."

As soon as she heard about Xuan Ge Lou, the eldest grandson Guanji was extremely panicked and stopped her. It was because that place would always be a pain in her heart. That night, it was only because of that night that she and Yi Lianxun lingered here for a long time.

That place, as soon as you walk into it, you can remember what happened that night.

"Why, does the queen have any objections?" Before she could say anything, she continued, "If you don't have any objections, let's all go."

Ye Yilan, who had been hiding aside, looked at the bloodstains all over Changsun Pingtao and was so frightened that she couldn't bear to take a look.

But the moment Sun Guanji stood up, he seemed to see himself, and there was a lot of hatred in his eyes.

"You think I'm too cruel."

Suddenly, he was hugged from behind, and he could hear the voice he spoke, and it was obvious that he was already exhausted physically and mentally.

And what he said was just because of this incident that he felt that he was cruel.

"You are the emperor, there is nothing wrong with you." What is his fault in this matter? He just saw how much he loves himself. Why should he blame himself so much and feel guilty? He held his hand tightly and pretended

Sighing. "But it would be cruel to use my anger to chop off someone's hand."

Cruel?

There are some things that he really can't control his cruelty. Especially when others treat her, her helpless eyes make her want to kill them one by one.

This time, he committed suicide because he naturally wanted his eldest son Chengde to know. No matter whether his eldest son Ping Tao had defiled Lan'er or not, they naturally didn't know whether it was true or false. As long as they knew one thing, he would always have a way to deal with Ye Xunyu's matter.

It's just a response. It's just a warning to the others.

"Lan'er, I really can't bear it. He did this to you that night. He deserves it this time."

This time, he showed mercy. If he hadn't remembered his master, perhaps his life would have been lost in the end.

"I know that you did this all for me." He blamed himself, and the one who blamed himself even more was himself. Letting go of his hands, he looked up at her face to face, but the bitterness in the corner of his mouth remained.

He forced a smile on his face and said, "Such things will never happen in the future. And we are not allowed to act too impulsively."

She was just afraid that the world would be too prejudiced against him.

Just now, he deliberately intercepted what Chang Sun Chengde said because he was too arrogant to allow others to say a word. But after all, he could hear every word he said.

Resolutely able to control the excesses in his actions.

impulse?

His impulse was only because it was for her.

What's more, what she said naturally took it to heart. When facing her, it was like the first time we met, wanting to get close but not daring to get close. Just because she was the master's daughter. I never thought that he

Will love her so deeply.
