Chapter 376: Dawn Broke, and So Did They
d inform them when the time came.”"Lord Fenglou, can you hear me clearly Do you have any objections" After finishing his words, Mingyang looked at Feng Yan'niao.Wind Yanni stood up and respectfully re..."You rebellious son, I hope you won't regret your actions today!" Under the influence of the soft tendon powder, every word the emperor spoke was labored, but it failed to bring a moment of realization to Qian Li Ye.
"Father, at this point, my son has no way out! As your eldest son, you have deprived me of the right to inherit the throne simply because my mother is not the empress. How can that be Why did he, Thousand Thoughts Dust, become the crown prince just by being born This throne should go to the most capable person. Thousand Thoughts Dust is nothing but a fool obsessed with love. Why should he inherit the throne! No matter how hard I tried, you ignored me. You only focused on my mistakes. During that hunting competition, I clearly won, yet you gave the Dragon Cavalry to Thousand Thoughts Dust and only gave me the Tiger Cavalry. We had agreed that whoever wins would command the Dragon Cavalry. Why were you so biased" Qian Liye passionately denounced the injustices he had suffered over the years.
The Emperor sighed, his face full of helplessness: "Ye'er, what I do is to protect you. Why don't you understand my good intentions" The Dragon Cavalry has always been led by the Crown Prince and the Emperor himself. If he gave the Dragon Cavalry insignia to him, wouldn't that deny the Crown Prince's authority to everyone How could Empress Dowager's faction just give up then
"Father, even now, you still deceive your son At the time, I thought that the Dragon Cavalry Token would be given to the Crown Prince at least. As for the Tiger Cavalry and Wolf Cavalry Tokens, Father, you would give them to me, but how could you be so partial You'd rather give the Wolf Cavalry Command to my third younger brother, that cripple, than let me manage it. Do you truly dislike your son this much In your heart, am I even less worthy than that crippled third brother of mine"
"You!" The Emperor was so angry he couldn't even speak.
The Empress beside him interjected, "Your Highness, the Emperor does this for your own good. He wants to transfer all the power of the Imperial Guards within the palace to you. He fears that once you take command of the Wolf Cavalry, you will have no time for the palace."
"Nonsense! Don't think I'll believe you just because you say so, and let you go! You're just helping the prince, why must he always be better than me He already has the best of everything, yet he doesn't know how to cherish it. I envy him, and I resent him! As long as he dies, everything he has will belong to me!" Qian Li Ye grew more and more agitated, the bloodstained sword in her hand pointing directly at Qian Si Chen.
"Dust!" The Empress saw this and, regardless of anything else, instinctively stepped in front of Qian Si Chen.
With a sneer at the corner of her lips, Qianliye let out a cold snort: “See He’ll always hide behind you, seeking your protection. Qiansidun, I look down on you!”
"Mother, this is a matter between my son and I. Let us handle it ourselves!" Qian Si Chen was deeply insulted by this. He struggled to stand up. They had all been given multiple doses of softening powder by Xiao Quan Zi. Without the antidote, it would take at least a day and night to recover. Even the slightest movement caused unbearable pain and weakness!
"Now that's more like a man!" Qian Li Ye smirked at him, his provocative gaze treating him like trash. Indeed, now Qian Si Chen was just as good as dead.
"Thousands of nights, this prince you want me to give you, just take him. Don't harm my father and mother, as long as you let them go, I'll allow you to do whatever you please with me!" At this moment, Qian Si Chen also seemed like a proper person.
"Dust!" The Empress heard this and was very anxious.
“Qian Si Chen, you have no right to bargain with me now! Everything you have will belong to me tomorrow, including Fu’er and Ge’er, the one you like!” Qian Li Ye laughed with a hint of triumph. The resentment that had been suppressed in his heart for many years finally erupted.
"If you dare to harm Ge'er, I swear even as a ghost I won't let you off!" Hearing him mention Ge'er, Qian Si Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold.
“Such a stunning beauty, no man could resist her. But rest assured, my heart belongs only to Fu’er. I'll listen to your song, savor it, then toss it aside in the military camp. You can watch from hell as your beloved woman seeks pleasure with another man!” Qian Liye laughed maniacally after finishing his words.
"You dare!" Qian Sichun gritted her teeth, her eyes bloodshot with rage. If looks could kill, then Qian Liye would have been killed countless times over right now.
“Qian Si Chen, Fu’er loves you so much, you shouldn’t disappoint her. You hurt her time and time again for Xiao Yu Ge, so both you and Xiao Yu Ge should die!” It has to be said, Qian Li Ye is still a devoted lover; his current urgency is half for Fu’er. He wants to marry Fu’er, but Fu’er has said that she wants the position of empress. She will marry whoever can give her that title.
He loved Fuelle, couldn't bear to see her suffer even the slightest bit of grievance, so he must fight back. As long as Xiao Yu Fu hated someone, he would kill them!
"You rebelled for Fleur" Qian Sicheng also found it ridiculous: "You actually love her this much Then why not tell her clearly."
"Do you understand From beginning to end, the only person she loved with all her heart and soul was you. How could she possibly accept me But as long as you're gone, she will definitely accept me. So, you have to die! What future emperor, I want you to go to hell and become a ghost!"
Just then, Qian Li with a flick of his hand, had the two guards bring in the bound and gagged National Teacher into the hall.
"Your Majesty!"
Seeing the Emperor's current state, the Grand Master slightly frowned. That was all; his thin face showed no panic.
"Grandmaster, you once said that the Crown Prince was the future emperor. This palace had you brought here from your residence 'specially' and kept you alive until tomorrow so you could see with your own eyes who the true emperor is!" Seeing his pitiful state, Qian Li Ye laughed maniacally.
Unbeknownst to him, the Grand Master still shook his head: "Your Highness, you're mistaken. If you had listened to His Majesty's words and stopped just now, perhaps you could have lived a life of ease and comfort until old age. But now, it's too late. Your end is sealed!"
When Qian Li heard his words, she was instantly enraged and shouted, "Poppycock! Listen to the sounds of fighting outside—that's the battle cry of victory! Even as you face your demise, you dare spout such nonsense here! Tomorrow, when I ascend the throne, the first thing I'll do is use you as a sacrificial offering. I will dismember you into eight pieces!"
The National Master calmly closed his eyes, remaining completely unmoved. His ears twitched subconsciously, as if he were listening through the torrential rain outside, carefully attending to the deafening battle cries. Gradually, the sounds of fighting seemed to lessen. He suddenly opened his eyes, not very large themselves but now resembling abysses, impossible to peer into.han anyone else. Normally, someone would have rushed to save him, but she just stared coldly without any intention of helping. She even acted as if she were terrified, rushing into Qian Ting Xuan's ar...
