"Father!" Min Ruoying knelt down in front of the emperor's bed, holding the bed with both hands, tears flashing in her eyes, "You, your body is not seriously injured, is your son really worried. Da Chu, you can't live without you!"

Listening to his son's words, the Emperor of Great Chu was mixed with emotion and stared at the face in front of him that looked like his youth. There was no sign of hypocrisy in the other person's eyes, and that sadness, anxiety, and real existence.

But the emperor knew that the son in front of him was afraid that he would die sooner, of course, after he determined his throne.

"An Ruhai's investigation is over. This is his investigation report and corresponding evidence. Don't you want to take a look?" The emperor reached out and patted the thick report beside him, staring at Min Ruoying.

Min Ruoying was slightly stunned and reached out to get the report, but the emperor's hand was pressed on it. Min Ruoying's hand froze in the air, either stretching or shrinking.

"Ruoying, I want to ask you something." The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at Min Ruoying. Although his voice was light, it seemed to be under great pressure in Min Ruoying's ears.

"Why did you have to kill Zuo Lixing?"

It was like a bolt from the blue, which made Min Ruoying's eyes blurred. He looked at the emperor with tongues and shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, no, no, why would I kill Zuo Shuai? What's this about me?"

With a crisp sound, the old emperor slapped heavily in the face.

"Do you think I'm a fool?" The emperor's voice was still low, as if he was trying hard to suppress his anger, and as if he was afraid that others would hear it.

"This bureau is perfect, you think so, right?" The old emperor sneered: "But you are extravagant. The destruction of the western border army is enough to point the finger at your royal brother. You should not make a fuss in the capital. The paper scraps deliberately left in the register, but they deliberately left one person. The murderer represented the underwear of the eastern border army, and Yang Yi, the division master. These are all redundant, do you know?"

Min Ruoying's body slightly shrank back, and she was frozen.

"From the beginning, I really thought it was your royal brother who was doing it, and the purpose was to cut off your wings and let the action you led end in a big failure, so that you can't make you famous and have no ability to compete with him anymore. But you shouldn't do the things that followed, you are insulting your father's IQ!" The emperor laughed.

"Or can you hide it from most people, but do you think you can hide it from An Ruhai? Can you hide it from Yang Yihe? You deliberately left those traces for An Ruhai to discover one by one, but who is An Ruhai? Do you know that during the arrest that night, An Ruhai had already arrived in front of Yang Yihe's door, but he didn't go in because he was hesitating." The emperor looked at Min Ruoying with a look of earth: "Yang Yihe is right. You are cruel, but you don't have great wisdom. The only clevernesses are used in places that should not be used."

Min Ruoying shrank back a few more steps. She looked at the emperor with a wolf-like gaze.

"Do you want to kill me?" the emperor sneered.

"Son doesn't dare, how can I have such a ruthless intention?" Min Ruoying sweated heavily. Although the emperor was lying on the hospital bed, Min Ruoying suddenly realized that she could not move at all. She seemed to have a heavy object on her body. After a little struggle, her bones actually made a sound of Titicaca. Looking at the emperor, a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

"You are so sick, but you can't lose your power. Do you think that with your level 9 skills, you can have the chance to succeed when I am seriously ill?" The emperor laughed, "Or, you are relying on the guy who pretended to be a eunuch who came in with you. He is Luo Ying, right?"

Min Ruoying almost lay down on the ground, holding her hands tightly on the ground, and the sound of blue bricks on the ground kept shattering one after another.

"Just this ruthlessness is a bit like you." The emperor sighed.

Outside the bedroom, Luo Ying, dressed as a eunuch, stood up straight with hunched eyes when Min Ruoying lay on the ground, and her eyes were instantly exposed like a falcon. In an instant, she was even more than a slight height. He took a step forward.

The door of the bedroom creaked open, and an old man holding a sword walked out and stood in front of Luo Ying. He was wearing a white-washed cloth, his hair was casually tied and his sword was scattered on his shoulders. The sword in his arms was also extremely ordinary. In the street weapon shop in Shangjing, you could buy one for a tael of silver, but this person stood casually. Luo Ying took the step he had just taken it out.

"Brother Luo, long time no see." The old man holding the sword said with a smile.

"You are not dead yet?" Luo Ying said gritting her teeth.

"Yes, I'm not dead." The old man holding the sword smiled, "But when did you become a eunuch when you waved your sword? Are you tired of men trying to try what it feels like to be neither a man nor a woman?"

Luo Ying's face turned red and white. He looked at the old man holding the sword and his throat was gurgling a few times, but he couldn't say a word. What shocked him even more was that what they planned was probably exposed. Looking at the door behind the old man holding the sword, the anxiety in his eyes was revealed.

"Why are you here?"

"I was beaten up by the emperor in my early years. I kept thinking about finding the place, but I never had a chance. Now that the emperor is leaving, I will send him off. It seems that I can't find this place." The old man who hugged the sword smiled and said, "Old opponent, old friend, when he passed away, he should naturally have old friends by his side. But I didn't expect that you would appear in front of me like this."

"What does Your Majesty mean?"

"I don't know, so we'll wait!" said the old man holding the sword and smiled.

Luo Ying took a deep breath and nodded silently. When he saw the old man holding the sword appear, he understood that the only thing they could do now was to look at the old emperor's attitude.

In the room, Min Ruoying, who was struggling to support her, suddenly felt empty. He was resisting the pressure with all his might. He actually bounced into the air. Fortunately, the bedroom was high enough. When he barely hit the roof, he finally relieved the pressure and fell back to the ground. However, he lay down on the ground with all his legs, and did not dare to move.

"Now you can tell me why you must kill Zuo Lixing?" The old emperor's voice sounded again.

"Because, because Zuo Shuai is a master, if he knew that I did this afterwards, he would definitely turn against me. I don't want to have such a master-level enemy, and I am even more worried that he will hate me and turn to another country because of this." Min Ruoying said tremblingly: "There are not many masters in the world. People like Zuo Shuai who have the cultivation of a master but are skilled in training and fighting will either be friends or kill them."

"It's really cruel." The old emperor sighed: "I have fewer people at the level of Grand Master of the Great Chu, but now there is one less. I think I must be very happy to come to Xiqi and Dongqi now."

"Father!" Min Ruoying said in a trembling voice, raised her head and looked at the emperor with begging eyes.

"It's okay Zuo Lixing. Although there are few masters, a new generation is better than an old man. There will always be new masters in my great Chu. But Xi'er, do you even care about her life and death?" The old emperor's eyes showed a sad look.

"My son sent someone to go and made it clear in his agreement with each other that he should ensure Xi'er's safety."

"Make sure? Then now I'll ask you, where is Xi'er?" The old emperor's voice became louder.

Min Ruoying lowered her head and couldn't answer.

Looking at the cruel son in front of him, the old emperor shook his head slightly. He didn't know whether his decision was good or bad for Da Chu, but did he have any other choices? If he didn't want to go to Beijing for chaos, he had to make the most in line with Da Chu's interests.

"I have ordered An Ruhai to enfeoff the Prince's East Palace." Staring at Min Ruoying, the old emperor said lightly.

Ah! Min Ruoying looked at the old emperor in amazement, with great ups and downs, great joy and sorrow, which made him completely unaware of how to face the person in front of him.

"You have already controlled the imperial guards, and most of the inner guards have turned to you. An Ruhai can control now is only a small part of them. In this regard, I have to say that you are indeed doing a good job. Today, Xuan entered the palace, and I think you have prepared both ways, right? As long as you have to, you will fight to the death, right?"

"Baby, kid..."

"Now you should know that not everything is in your calculations, right? Even if you control the imperial guards and control most of the inner guards, it is easy for me to kill you. Luo Ying, whom you rely on, is still unable to move now." The old emperor sighed: "Today is the last lesson I have taught you, so that you know that when victory is in sight, it is often the time to lose. Do you understand? At any time, you must walk on thin ice."

"Baby, I've written it down."
