Chapter 65: Mother and Child
The ancient tea is light and misty, and the taste is pure, but it is surprisingly bitter.
Dao Tianxing watched quietly, he didn't drink, and the Duchess looked at him, a little puzzled.
"You don't seem to want to drink?"
"Well, I've drunk it and don't want to taste it again." Dao Tianxing nodded and looked at his surroundings.
Between the ruins, only this table, a few chairs, and a teapot seem to have been well preserved, which makes people feel a little deliberate.
The Duchess also nodded, those who have tasted it naturally know what bitterness is, so there is really no need to taste it.
"That, mother......"
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly made a sound, the Duchess's heart trembled, looking at Zhu Zhuqing's flawless face, she felt like she was looking at a mirror of the past, with indescribable pain and suffering.
The Duchess placed her right hand on the table, her palm slightly open, and then clenched her fist tightly, hesitating in fact self-doubt, she did not know if she was qualified to touch her child.
Eventually, the Duchess let out an imperceptible sigh and withdrew her palm, resting it back on her thigh.
"I know what you're worried about, don't worry, even if it's a dragon, your father, Duke Zhuluo, will take care of everything, and Emperor Xingluo won't have too many problems on his side." The Duchess held the teacup, dipped some tea to her lips, and pursed her lips.
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head violently, her pupils glowed with a crystal luster, full of longing: "What I want to ask is not this, but to know about your past, mother!" ”
"What ...... I"
The Duchess sighed and laughed self-deprecatingly: "I have nothing to say about the past, but it is a maneuver that has been repeated countless times in the Imperial Family. ”
"If you don't understand, you don't empathize, how can you let go of the mustard in your heart?" Dao Tianxing sighed with emotion, which made the Duchess at this time extremely recognized.
"You're right, maybe I should have faced the past once......"
The bitter tea entered her throat, and the Duchess, stimulated by this extreme bitterness, began to reminisce about the past and tell the bits and pieces of the past.
The Duchess is the eldest princess of the Dai family, and she is extremely talented, and if it were not for the fact that she was a daughter, she would even be qualified to compete with her brother for the throne.
It's just that she met a man in her life who could compete with her, the first time she met and fought, the second time she became a confidant, the third time she became a lover, and the fourth time she was separated by yin and yang.
They fell in love for a short time, but this love was heavy.
It was so heavy that her hands were stained with the blood of her lover, so much so that she never had the ability to pick up any blade again!
The Duchess is actually very cowardly, she has endured it for many years, so that now she has surpassed her husband, Duke Chola, and stepped into the realm of titles, but no one knows about it in this huge Star Luo City!
But so what?
The cowardice in her heart made her, who was originally afraid of failure, dare not take revenge on everyone easily!
"There is a Douluo who manipulates people's hearts in the enshrinement?!"
Dao Tianxing was terrified, he would never have thought that Xingluo, who was peaceful on the surface, would hide an incomparably terrifying blade!
Whenever the rules specified by Xingluo are challenged, then these sharp blades will not hesitate to slash at the challenger, even if it is a loved one!
"Yes, he died at last, but he was still smiling happily, and my arms were through his chest, holding bloody organs, and the fountain was scarlet and blinding......"
The Duchess remembered so deeply that her heart seemed to be gripping with a meat grinder, and the deeper she went, the more she found that the past had long since been shattered, and only bits and pieces remained.
Dao Tianxing watched the Duchess cry, but she was still very quiet, because she had experienced too much, she had long been numb, and even if she was emotionally fluctuating now, her face was still like frost and snow.
The Duchess quickly calmed down her emotions and wiped away her tears, and she was the lonely fang who had left the world alone.
"Boy, you're strong, much better than him. But you still need to be careful, in addition to the Titled Douluo who can manipulate people's hearts, the Star Luo Royal Family also has the Emperor Taishang who lives in seclusion in the worship hall.
Of course, you may be able to cross these mountains, but they are nothing. Because in addition to facing an army of millions, you also have to face an enshrined god! That is your ultimate obstacle, and it is also the most difficult threshold for Zhu Zhuqing to break free from the shackles of the family. ”
Dao Tianxing and Zhu Zhuqing were silent, which was too difficult for them now.
Moreover, the situation in Xingluo was complicated, and the mud gathered into a muddy swamp, which was far more difficult to struggle than they imagined.
Dao Tianxing and Zhu Zhuqing chose to enter the game at the beginning, originally for Dai Mubai, but now they have long been unable to protect themselves, do they choose to earn their own lives, or break the shackles?
In fact, none of this makes sense.
Dao Tianxing already had a plan, and if he was forced to the end, it would be a big deal to overthrow the royal power!
"Alright, that's it, I'm tired."
The Duchess held her head, her mood swings were too violent today, and she was very tired, and she didn't have the energy to talk to Dao Tianxing and them anymore.
"With Madame's approval, we will go to see Emperor Xingluo tomorrow, and it will be justified."
Dao Tianxing bowed to the Duchess and pulled Zhu Zhuqing to turn around and leave.
When they walked to the door, the Duchess opened her mouth again: "Is his name Zhu Zhuqing?" If you have time in the future, can you come to see me often? ”
Zhu Zhuqing stood stunned in place, she was very excited, her teeth clenched her lower lip and she didn't make any sound, but tears had already slipped down her cheeks and face.
Finally, her lips quivered, and she struggled to spit out a word.
"Good!"
