No hts were in their heads, they could only accept and carry out the decree
The Ely taking the secret medicine preserved his life, the backlash was also very serious
In the short half a year period, his hair had beco hier to live, so he su Yue still couldn’t confir that the Erit his teeth and agree
After receiving the auspicious hour from the Ministry of Cere Hui”
He hurriedly headed to the side palace where Zhong Yue was living and drew hi Yue was stunned He then turned his head, s, “Dear Yan, what causes you to be so happy?”
Two years ti adulthood The ier had receded and his temperament had become more refined, like a jeweled sith an unexpectedly sharp edge, causing people to ponder Moreover, his injuries had already healed His current appearance was evenat his s flower, allYue had always done things in a high profileLi Yan, knew that the E Yue The Crown Prince being able to ascend to the throne so sely attributed to him
“Today the Ministry of Ceremonies had decided on the ascension date It is set to be on the fifteenth of next month In just one more month, I’ll be able to sit on the throne At that time…”
Li Yan controlled the ecstacy and i Yue’s forehead and said adoringly, “Chong Hui,you is my luck accu Yue’s eyes Faced with this kind of Li Yan, he was dazed
The gentleness in Li Yan’s eyes was undoubtedly sincere This sort of gazeYue deeply entranced, the unpleasantness of the past all disappeared in the moment He was suddenly uncertain: In this lifetime, except for this man in front of him, there probably won’t be a second person who can make him love and hate so deeply…can he really harden his heart, ruin his path to rulershi+p, and take his life?
However, what Li yan said next quickly trampled his last trace of hesitation
Li Yan asked hi Hui had said before that once you reach adulthood you’ll be able to take over the Zhong Clan At that ti Yue’s heart sank but he smiled and said, “There’s no need to wait until my birthday On the day you ascend the throne, my clansmen would accept me as the Clan Head and come to takeAn, but I entered the palace that day and negotiated with hi Yue, will only recognize you as theClan’s attitude won’t change, and only then did he give up that idea It’s just…I’ain in this lifetime”
Li Yan didn’t discover the co how Father E An and had wanted to push him aside, Li Yan narrowed his eyes faintly In his heart, he deter on, Li Yan felt overjoyed, then grateful, and then reluctant, “Chong Hui, don’t go Didn’t we promise to see all the beautiful sceneries and to create a flourishi+ng new age together hand in hand? Stay by ed hihtly, he said with a voice choked with e, but…I have no other choice”
Only your life can redeem mine
He could only make a choice
Li Yan didn’t knohat he was thinking He heard him then pressed, “Why? TianJi Mountain is only a few days away fro periods of ti Clan and I am the country’s monarch If ant to meet, who can stop us?”
“You don’t understand…the clan rule is like this I originally thought we could stay together if I just give up the Zhong Clan and give up my identity as someone from TianJi Mountain But if I do that, you wouldn’t be able to obtain the world You will regret it, rue it, be tor you be sad byHui, don’t say that Whatis there to the mountains and rivers without you?” Li Yan made him face him and held his face, “Rules are e it? Or is it that you’re not willing to be together with , if not for you, ould I…”
“Chong Hui, don’t cry I know your difficulties, but I also believe things can be changed through effort To be where we are today, we had to cut down countless obstacles before we could walk a sether”
Zhong Yue cried even harder He asked Li Yan, “Do you love me?”
“Of course The waters are plenty, but I only want you”
Li Yan said with conviction
Zhong Yue breathed in deeply He hugged hihter and said in a low voice, “Li Yan, re An’s Manor
It was shrouded in gloo on everyone’s brows
Niu Bi looked at King An’s dark expression and said, “Your Highness, have you thought it through? There is no going back after you’ve taken this step”
King An clenched his fists, “Could it be sir has some other ways? Even if I concede, is there truly a way out forof the news he had received fro Yue to five horses and dismember him
Clearly, Father Emperor had intentions to depose the Crown Prince and instate him instead, but unexpectedly in the end he still yielded to the power of TianJi Mountain, choosing to pass the throne to Li Yan, as supported by Zhong Yue They had clearly conspired to steal what originally should’ve been his!
Seeing how Li Yan’s ascension date was nearing, King An kne perilous his own situation was He could only cut off his own retreat and stake everything on one last fight
He clearly understood that if he gave up this lastof opportunity, Li Yan would never keep hi—just like if he was the one who succeeded, he would refuse to let Li Yan live for a
Moreover, King An had his own trusted aides at court, not to h, there was still the Zhang Clan Zhang Tian once hu Clan surely wouldn’t just sit idly by as Li Yan ascended the throne With this in mind,it wasn’t completely impossible for him to seize the throne Even if he failed, the worst outco An said heavily, “Sir doesn’t need to say anything more The winner takes all Whether I succeed or fail, this prince won’t shrink back!”
Zhong Manor
Li Xi once again disguised hi was too lazy to see hie—to do nothing extra However, at the same time he knew that Li Xi would definitely not listen
As expected, not a few days had passed when Zhong Quan received a report, “Master, there are movements in the south The subordinates left by E north; they are certain to arrive before the ascension cere his ation also revealed that King An was alsosoldiers as an insurance as well At the sa Yue and had left an escape route for hi smiled, “They are truly related, their ambition lives up to their bloodline as descendants of the founding Emperor”
Like this, on the day of Li Yan’s ascension cere each other
Oh right, the Zhong clansmen that had already been sent fro Yue planned to resolve his life and death crisis on that day, and the Zhong Clan had attached utmost importance to this matter Even the Clan Head who rarely ventured out came personally to ensure no ers and panthers all gathered in one palace It would surely be a lively scene
Gou Liang rubbed his lips with a small smile He looked forward to it quite a bit
Before Li Yan’s ascension cere Clan’s death anniversary
On that day, Gou Liang brought Zhong Quan and a few other shadow guards to give offerings He didn’t go visit the memorial set up by the Emperor at HuGuo Temple, instead he went outside of the capital to where the bodies of the Zhong Clan members were buried
This place used to be a completely barren piece of scorched earth, but after ten years, the wild grasses had regrown and were now flourishi+ng
This place was a taboo for the natives in the capital Whether it was because they were afraid of the State Teacher’s mysterious arts or because they felt reverence in their hearts, no one dared to disturb the Zhong Clan members who rest here They all cautiously avoided this place
The wild grasses here grew freely, pushi+ng against each other and were nearly threejust short of a person’s chest
The entire way there was peaceful When the joss sticks were burned completely and the paperin the dark still hadn’tcas, and the second was to use hireat-grandfather into the open
That person knew the secret that a two sons of heaven, only one could live The date where Zhong Yue was planning to resolve his ordeal was quickly approaching An uncertain factor like hiet rid of him before the ascension ceremony
And today was the best opportunity
However, the person was even ht
When the offering ritual ca ti the wine”
A cup of yelloine spilled onto the earth
“Grandfather, Father, Mother, Chang Qing didn’t fail your expectations Everyone who har Clan has been made to pay in blood”
He bowed
