Chapter 223: It's All Threats
Above the Huaguo Palace, it was the end of the early dynasty and the courtiers left one after another.
"Wait a minute, I have something to say to you." Murong Qi shouted to Rong Xi, who was about to turn around and leave. His voice was low, and there was a sharp light flashing in his eyes, with a bit of coldness and coldness.
Hearing this, Rong Xi stopped, then turned his eyes slightly sideways, as if intentionally or unintentionally glancing at the person behind him. The moment the last courtier in the hall stepped out of the main hall besides him, he slowly turned around and faced his father.
"Father." Rong Feng smiled on his face, and stood with his sleeves very indifferent, and his warm and beautiful face was still the best in the world. It seems that as long as he smiles, he is the most dazzling existence in heaven and earth.
"I know that the appearance of your mother is rare in the world, but I didn't expect that one day this kind of beauty can be born in a man, or in my own son." Murong Qi stared at Rong Xian for a long time, and finally squinted deeply, and the essence of his eyes appeared, but his tone still sounded low and deep.
Rong Xi chuckled lightly, opened his lips and said, "This is the first time that Father and I have talked about your mother...... However, I still thank my father for his praise. β
"Oh? Do you think that's a compliment? This kind of appearance, born in a woman, is a red face and a disaster, and born in a man, don't you think it doesn't matter? Murong Qi looked at his son with a smile.
"Because some people like it, I feel that it is my honor to have this face, and I am grateful to my father and mother." Rong Xian still smiled between his eyebrows, but it was only softness on the surface, because the person standing in front of him now could only feel an inexplicable sense of oppression, and it seemed that there was a natural coercion and coldness on Rong Xi's body that was spreading.
Murong Qi frowned slightly, he looked at Rong Feng, he seemed to be able to see an existence called Feng in Rong Feng's deep eyes.
"The person you like is a dye of the dying?" Murong Qi looked at Rong Feng deeply for a while, and the next moment he spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes." Rong Xian replied very indifferently, and then he smiled again: "But I also think Ah Ran is very beautiful." He said this with a sincere expression.
Murong Qi snorted coldly and said, "You two are really a good match. β
"Thank you, Father, for your compliment." Rong Xi still said humbly.
"But at the same time, you must also know that you married her and have always been ready to keep her by your side, which is not only a threat to Huaguo, but also the biggest threat to yourself." Murong Qi's eyes flickered, and he continued unhurriedly.
Rong Xi smiled slightly, his eyes were a little deeper, he opened his eyes, and his voice sounded a little calmer, "In the eyes of my father, I'm afraid we are all threats, right?" β
Murong Qi stared straight at Rong Feng for a long time, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Actually, Gu has always been thinking that you are obviously Gu's son, but Gu actually feels that he has never understood you. β
"Since I was a child, I have understood the world in the palace, and I know that my father treats me with only disgust. My father said that he didn't understand me, and that was only because one thing my father had always hoped for was that I could disappear from my father's eyes, and the best thing was that I could die. It's a pity that my father found that he couldn't get his wish, and my father's heart was even more troubled by the memory of his mother's concubine, so my father drove me out of the palace and let my son come to my side to watch. It's just that what my father didn't expect was that I would get to know Ah Ran, and the threat my father felt would be even greater. Rong Xi lowered his head and chuckled, "To be honest, this time I returned to Huaguo, and my father still hasn't done anything, which has surprised me very much." β
"You can really see it through." Murong Qi closed his eyes and opened them again, there was a sharp color in his eyes, the words he said just now were indeed a compliment to Rong Xi, and it was from Murong Qi's sincerity. He paused, brushed his sleeves and said, "But you know that Gu is waiting for you to come back in Huaguo, why do you still want to walk into the trap yourself?" β
For what?
For yourself? Or is it for the sake of dyeing?
Murong Qi really wanted to know this.
Rong Xun listened, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, like a flower blooming in spring, gorgeous and dazzling. He raised his right hand, his slender fingertips supporting his chin, and pretended to think seriously before he said, "Father asked this question well, and it seems to me to be really difficult to answer. β
"Will there still be difficult questions for you? Isn't there a decision in your heart? Murong Qi said sarcastically.
Rong Xun suddenly laughed silently, he lowered his eyelids, and his slender eyelashes swept across his eyelids, leaving a trace of shadow. And his expression softened at this time, as if in his slightly constricted eyes, the expression was longing and resentment.
When he heard Murong Qi ask this question, a person suddenly appeared in his mind, it was a woman in a clean and flowing dress, the woman was extremely beautiful, the woman seemed to be standing under a flower tree, twisting flower petals in her hand, turning her head and smiling at him.
"Rong Xi, in this world, you are the most beautiful person I have ever met. Do you feel happy when I say that? He seemed to hear the woman whispering to him in his ear.
This woman is jade dye, and at this moment, the moment Murong Qi asked this question, what came to Rong Xi's mind would be jade dye.
"Indeed, since I was a child, when I was at odds with my father, all I had in my heart was the world. But now, Father, I find that I have fallen in love with someone, and that person is now a thorn in my father's side. So, it can be said that I came back here not only for the world. Rong Xian's face was smiling, but the tone of his voice was extraordinarily sincere and firm.
Murong Qi said in a cold voice: "Is it still for the sake of dyeing?" But have you ever wondered if she needs your contribution or not? Don't forget, she was obviously the eldest princess of Mingxu, but she was able to step by step from a princess of Mingxu to the prince of Ningguo, then the prince, and now the regent, and almost grasped the power of Anguo from behind. The Ming Dynasty was destroyed by her own hands, such a lesson from the past is in front of you.
"Even if there is your fault in this, but such a cruel and ruthless woman, what is there worth your lingering? You care about her so much now, like her, and make concessions for her, but do you know what she really thinks in her heart? If in her heart, between the world and you, she only chose the world, and only used you as a pawn to use, then what should you do? β
"Father, the world and her, I have no reason to give up on any of them. She and I are not good people, and we both know the ruthlessness of the struggle for power, so even if we use each other, there is nothing wrong with it, and neither of us has the right to anger the other. This is what we have acquiesced to from the beginning. Rong Xi's tone sounded very calm, he was not angry, and he didn't feel that Murong Qi could understand.
Because, after all, there is a horizontal ditch between Rong Xi and Murong Qi, and this horizontal ditch represents fate.
When Murong Qi regarded Rong Xi as the person he hated in his heart, Rong Xi also regarded Murong Qi as an enemy he had to defeat. In the final analysis, the relationship between father and son will come to this point, and it is Murong Qi who first cut off the fate between them.
It's like Jade Dye and Emperor Zhuan, obviously Yuran can be a noble eldest princess with peace of mind, and she can also assist Emperor Zhuan with her own strength, but Emperor Zhuan gave up Jade Dye, regarded Jade Dye as a big fear in his heart, and even was hostile to Jade Dye. If it weren't for Emperor Zhuan who broke Yuran's heart, then the current Ming Xu should have created greater brilliance.
It's just a pity that it's too late.
Rong Xi had already opposed Murong Qi, and Yu Ran had destroyed Ming Xu with his own hands.
Default...... Good a default. But now that you have returned to Huaguo, and you are the regent of Huaguo, then you have to listen to Lonely. Murong Xi narrowed his eyes, his eyes were deep and sharp, and his voice sounded extremely cold, "Intrigue above the court, you are good at it, it doesn't mean that you can't." Since you said that you came back for both her and yourself, then you should do it for Lonely!
"By the way, Lone remembers that she has been pregnant for more than seven months now, right? It seems that it won't be long before even you will be a father. Oh no, I don't know, maybe if she continues to make such a fuss, not only her children will not be saved, but even her own lifeβI think it's worrying. β
After Murong Qi said the end, a sneer suddenly appeared on his lips. Murong Qi still has to maintain his majestic side as a king in front of Rong Xi, he wants Rong Xi to know that he is the king, and Rong Xi is a minister and a son. After all, he is the one who should be respected by Rong Xi. Even if the king wants his ministers to die, so what?
Murong Qi always believed that what he did was not wrong, and he always regarded Rong Xi as a rebellious child, maybe he didn't want to admit this child at all. Because as long as he sees Rong Xian, it will remind him of a person, and that person is Shi Shanxue.
Rong Raid and Shi Shanxue actually don't look alike, but as long as Murong Qi sees Rong Raid, as long as he thinks that Rong Raid is Shi Shan Xue's child, he can't help but think of Shi Shan Xue who was still alive back then, and what he saw in his eyes was Shi Shan Xue looking at him with a sad and resolute look.
Then, the snow disappeared, and his mind suddenly became chaotic.
Why?
Why is this happening?
Because--Shishan Xue died.
Shi Shanxue couldn't bear Murong Qi's distrust, nor could she believe in this desolate world, so she chose death.
In the eyes of everyone, she seems to have become a short-lived passerby. Obviously, she should already be a person sealed by time, and obviously no one in this world cares about her anymore, but Murong Qi just can't forget it. Because his body and mind told him how much he had loved this woman.
