Su Yu Wan was forced to stay by the side of the paddock, holding onto the dagger on her back without retreating at all. Qing Qing, who had finished reading the book, rubbed her neck as she raised her head and looked at Su Yu Wan: "Elder sister, are you hungry? I'll go get something to eat. "
"I'm not hungry." Su Yu Wan gritted her teeth and squeezed out these two words: "Cheng Yi, I'd like to ask Big Brother Xuan what exactly did I do wrong."
"A crime like colluding with Empress Xiao Hai and Empress Xu is enough to slice you into a thousand pieces."
Duan Chengxuan's voice sounded from the door, and he wore a black gold robe with an imposing manner and a piercing gaze.
Su Yu Wan only felt her body stiffen as a chill ran down her spine, causing her to sweat profusely.
Why was it that in just this short moment, Big Brother Xuan was able to tell that something was amiss?
Qing Qing didn't know what the two of them were talking about, but she smiled and ran to Duan Chengxuan's side, softening the latter's gloomy expression. With one hand, she carried Qing Ze in her embrace and looked at Su Yu Wan with a cold gaze, "I'll let you live, but because you still have some use, if you can't be of use to me, I will untie your arms and legs and tie you to my master's grave for a hundred years."
As if recalling the three days in the dungeon, Su Yu Wan still remembered the miserable state that had occurred before the death of the Venerable Azure Dai. She had been restless all night and now she was even more terrified, "Brother Xuan, I really didn't kill Master's wife …"
"Even if you didn't kill them, you still harmed Yan'Er and Gu Zixian's two children. Two lives for the rest of your life, I don't care." Duan Cheng Xuan raised her hand to cover Qing Ze's ears. Her actions were extremely gentle.
However, from her words, she felt as if her skin had been cut open by a blade. Her scalp went numb and her face turned deathly pale. "Brother Xuan …"
"You no longer deserve to be called This King. I have allowed you to live for the past few days, do you really think that this king is someone who cares about old friends? " Duan Chengxuan walked up, picked up a piece of candy, and placed it in Qing Ze's arms. Ignoring the fact that he might be eating all the crumbs on his body, he still carried him, turned around, and prepared to leave, but only left a few words, "I'm just curious as to what you and Xiao Hai can do."
"Duan Chengxuan!" His delicate face turned ferocious, and even though his back was split open by a dagger, he didn't notice as he looked at Duan Chengxuan with bloodshot eyes, "I grew up with you and gave you this heart, and yet you say that you don't care about the feelings of our past! Then, what exactly are the twenty years that we've been entangled with, to you! "
The woman's voice was almost loud, almost hoarse.
However, when Duan Cheng Xuan stopped walking, she continued, "Back then, I was indeed close to you for the sake of power, and I treated you intimately. But in these twenty years, even if you've already lost your heart and love towards me, have you no feelings of kinship anymore? Do you remember when Master punished us in the snow? "Do you remember how Mistress told you to take care of me in this miserable life of mine?"
Every word was spoken from the bottom of her heart, causing Su Yu Wan to almost burst into tears. Her voice became hoarse: "I will do anything for you and me! Yet you treat me like this for a Gu Liuyan! In her eyes, there is only the responsibility of a doctor, or the common people and friends of this world. There is no one who can help you! "
Silence instantly enveloped the few people and Duan Chengxuan did not move. Su Yu Wan's tears fell on the table as well.
How could there be a heartless person in this world?
Duan Chengxuan naturally remembered that the two of them were the sunrise on top of the mountain peak's boulder. He also remembered Su Yuwan whispering her love words into her chest. He also remembered that even though Su Yu Wan was clumsy, she still learned how to take care of the Duke's Mansion.
However, she naturally remembered everything that Su Yu Wan had told him.
Only when Qing Qing unhappily raised her hand and slammed it on his shoulder, did she shout in a soft and tender voice, "Big sis, you say you like daddy, but you just want daddy to like you and love you. But my mother wished for father to be a good person, regardless of the water nature of father's flesh and blood! Mother likes father more than you do! "
Because the young prince's words were a little dazed, Su Yu Wan angrily flipped the table.
On the other hand, Duan Chengxuan smiled lightly as he hugged Qing Shui even more tightly. As he smiled softly, he did not even turn his head to look at Su Yu Wan.
"Qing Zi is right. Because of this, you can't even compare to a single finger of Yan'Er."
"I am not only your husband, but also this Navy Tide's King Jing. Even if I don't kill you, a selfish and ruthless person like you is not worthy to be my wangfei. "
In his arms, Qing Yi felt a little better. However, she was still lying on his shoulder, glaring at Su Yu Wan. Indeed, this was a child's character.
Su Yu Wan pressed her fingertips into her palm and her body started to tremble.
So what else could she do?
Cheng Yi withdrew the dagger in his hand. "Your Highness is no longer Crown Princess Jing. In the future, I will always be by your side. Surely, I won't let you leave my side even half a step?"
"Even if I go to the latrine or take a bath!" Su Yu Wan angrily flipped the chair behind her over and panted as she looked at Cheng Yi. Even when he nodded seriously, Su Yu Wan was completely out of options.
No matter what, Duan Chengxuan at least hadn't thought of dying.
At the same time, in the villa's lobby.
Duan Cong had never thought that Gu Ming Yan would make such a request. Her words were like a lightning strike as she looked at her in shock, "If Cheng Xuan knew …"
"He definitely won't let me and the Third Prince off, but the situation has already been set. His military power has long been scattered. What can he do to me?" Gu Danyan pursed her lips and lowered her head, "As long as Your Majesty agrees, I can guarantee that Erdan and the Navy Tide Alliance won't understand, regardless of whether the country of Jiang Yan has completely collapsed or not."
Duan Cong became more and more confused.
This woman was one of the few. Whether it was the amount of information in her possession or her clear mind, she was a rare sight. Yet, she was currently deeply in love with Duan Chengxuan, and now that she mentioned it, it actually caused him, the Emperor, to feel a sense of danger.
"I want to know the reason for your actions."
"Time is of the essence, I have to go and do something more important. Only when I marry the future Crown Prince and use him to suppress a group of brothers will there be no internal conflict." After Gu Daiyan finished speaking, she told everyone that Empress Xu may have had something to do with Jiang Yan.
Duan Cong's face did not show any trace of shock, as if she had already known this would happen.
"You know that Empress Xu's heart is unspecialized, why did you still tolerate it …"
"The power behind her is complex, it's not something that can be resolved overnight. The things that you proposed today are not impossible. It could even be said that you have benefited greatly, but … How are you going to explain this to Cheng Xuan? " Duan Cong looked troubled.
Even if the Third Prince was his own son, he still felt that heartless love wasn't appropriate, not to mention that the Third Prince was the future emperor, so what would happen between Gu Danyan and Duan Chengxuan? It was unknown whether Duan Chengxuan would force himself to court the palace for the sake of seizing Gu Mingyan.
However, with the current complicated situation, this was the fastest way to solve the problem.
"As long as we have the assistance of Aldan, we can definitely help the Emperor deal with Empress Xu." Gu Danyan said honestly.
