King Mo sighed.
"Speaking of which, I and I played together since childhood. This friendship was originally different from others'."
Prime Minister Du and Du Qianli looked at each other.
King Mo suddenly changed the topic, "The old Prime Minister is sick. Your sons and daughters should be attending to him. Why are all of them except for the eldest son?"
Prime Minister Du's face revealed shame, "Speaking of which, my wife heard some bad rumors and went back to her parents' home."
Prime Minister Du had always been strict with his family, but such a thing actually happened. It could be seen that the Du Residence was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"Madam is messing around too." King Mo put down his teacup.
Prime Minister Du glanced at Du Qianli.
Come to think of it, Prime Minister Du could be considered to have gone with the flow.
Although he had caught hold of Prince Qing's weakness, he was not sure if the Emperor would side with him.
If the emperor were to persevere, as Du Jinse's father, he would bear the brunt of the attack. Even Du Qianli would not be able to escape.
The children born to him and Madame Li might have survived due to the pleas from his colleagues. It would be better if they returned to their parents' home first.
These little thoughts naturally couldn't be said to the King of the Desert.
A flash of hatred appeared in Du Qianli's eyes. He would never forget the humiliation he suffered at the Li Clan's place, nor the nasty words that his sister's matter had spread to the Du Clan.
"In the end, he is not the original Madam. It is only natural for him to fly when a great catastrophe is about to befall him."
Du Qianli enunciated each word clearly.
"A thousand kilometers."
Prime Minister Du wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.
Du Qianli had finished speaking, he lowered his head.
"My apologies, King Mo."
King Mo's thin lips curled up, "Young Master Du is right. In the underworld of the Princess Qing, to know one's own direct blood brother, to protect her like this means he is smiling from the bottom of his heart."
Du Qianli lowered his head.
Even though the look in King Mo's eyes looked warm, he did not dare meet his gaze.
Every word that King Mo said was deeply stabbed into his heart, causing him to bleed profusely.
Sister.
When her sister needed help the most, they pushed her out the door.
Ever since she was young, her elder sister had never experienced any hardships. In a single night, she had lost everything and fell into the purgatory of the human world. When she died, she must have felt despair.
After returning from the palace, Prime Minister Du had told Du Qianli that Du Jinse was dead and that she should never mention the matter of her return to the Du Residence ever again.
Du Qianli never thought that his elder sister would actually die.
In the past few days, he had watched the Prime Minister Du move forward step by step, watching as he chased Lady Li and her son back to their parents' home, all for the sake of the Du Family's fire and incense.
He just silently followed behind Prime Minister Du, unable to recall what his sister's voice and smile looked like.
That day, when he saw his sister disappearing into the darkness, he should have ran forward to pull Du Jinse back.
Life and death together.
How could Madame Li and her child be part of their family?
His sister, him, and his father were the real family.
"Prime Minister Du cannot be revived, you have to restrain your grief, Young Master Du, Prime Minister Du is the pillar of our nation, you have to comfort him, in the imperial court, there must be a Prime Minister Du."
King Mo said earnestly.
"Yes."
Du Qianli promised.
King Mo stood up.
"In that case, I will take his leave, there's no need to send me off."
He said there was no need to send him off, so how could the Du father and son not send him off?
After walking to the second door, King Mo seemed to have thought of something and turned to the side, "The Princess Qing was personally bestowed with an order by the Emperor. Although it was not a grand wedding, the Emperor was especially grateful and allowed the Princess Qing to enter the temple to enjoy the incense of the future generations."
