Chapter Seventy-Six: What a Ruthless Heart
"What about people?!" This is the fifth cup that Gu Zhiqi has broken.
"A subordinate is derelict in his duties." The three black-clothed men kneeling on the ground just shook their heads, this was the first time they had seen their master so annoyed and angry, even if they were humiliated by the prince, they were still light-hearted, but they didn't know that for a woman would change so much.
"But what did the remnants of the Min clan do?" Gu Zhiqi calmed down and asked.
Gu Zhiqi went straight to the palace after receiving the broken cup, but unexpectedly, the emperor was still very weak and had never given such an order. Who could that be?
"Lord Wang, the Min family is like a rat crossing the street, and he doesn't have the courage to come to the palace to make trouble. According to the subordinates in the palace, those people did take the things in the palace and swaggered into the palace to pick up people, and no one dared to stop them. The man in black kneeling at the front said carefully.
"People in the palace, go and find out who in the palace today suddenly resigned or said goodbye without saying goodbye!" Gu Zhiqi's cold words are like frozen bones on the ice, without a trace of temperature.
"Yes!" One of them immediately retreated, and the atmosphere was really oppressive.
"Where is the princess now?" Gu Zhiqi narrowed his eyes and asked lazily, still playing with the last cup in his hand.
"The princess has always been in the palace and has never left." A person reports.
"Hmph." Gu Zhiqi flicked his robe, and the cup also fell to the ground, and he strode out of the door with a face like frost.
"Wang ...... Lord, the slave greets the prince. "The princess's courtyard is now crowded, and the people at the door saw that it was the prince who entered the door, and they were so frightened that they couldn't speak for a while.
Yes, the prince doesn't come much on weekdays, and there is such an incident at the princess's maiden family at this time, how can she come at this time? Those who left and left, and those who left behind were all brought by the princess when they were young, or they were favored and loyal.
"The princess is here?" Gu Zhiqi didn't deviate his head, and asked in a low voice.
"Back to the prince, the princess is in the house." It doesn't seem to be a good thing to look at King An's appearance, the subordinate is trembling, and is about to make a report.
"No need, this king will go in himself." Gu Zhiqi directly interrupted her and quickly entered the house.
"Lord Wang?" Ding Muxue obviously didn't expect Gu Zhiqi to enter the house at this time, and was a little surprised, but her upbringing and rules quickly made her salute calmly.
"The princess is still very interested, and she can still wear red makeup and gold wisps, hairpins and jasmine beads?" Gu Zhiqi smiled instead of being angry.
"Lord, the concubine is the prince's person when she enters the palace, no matter what happens, the concubine only remembers to abide by her duty." Ding Muxue seemed to have grown up overnight, but when she said this, her long nails seemed to be able to poke into her flesh and bones.
"Oh? Does the princess know that the twelve members of the Ding family are all related to the rebellion case, and they will be beheaded at the south gate tomorrow at noon? Gu Zhiqi stared at her, trying to see something through her eyes.
"Lord, the concubine said that the concubine is now only the concubine of King An's mansion. It was, and it will be. Ding Muxue's light tone was like kneeling and begging for a peach before, which had never happened.
"Good! Good! The princess has only really become the princess of my Anwangfu until now! "Gu Zhi means something.
"If the prince just wants to ask Xue'er today if her heart is in the palace, then the prince already has the answer." Ding Muxue obviously didn't want to continue the topic.
"This king is here today, and I just want to ask the princess one question." Gu Zhiqi said softly, with a sigh in his tone.
"Lord Wang, please speak." Ding Muxue didn't care, everything is different now, after she finally went to prison and met her father, she changed, completely changed.
Her father told her that she is the only one in the Ding family now, as long as she is Princess An one day, then she will be the queen in the future, and no one can shake it. However, if she also loses her life, then everything is meaningless and will come to naught. When the time comes, it will really be the relatives who hate the enemy!
"If this king has spoken, this king has already given an order yesterday to have your father taken out of prison. You...... Will it still be done? Gu Zhiqi's voice was no longer so cold, more with a hint of tiredness.
"Lord Wang?!" Ding Muxue was shocked and subconsciously knelt on her knees.
With tears in her eyes, she looked straight at this man, who was now high up. In the past, he was as gentle as water, although he rarely fell in love with her, but he never said a cold word to her, always faint. Now his eyes are like fierce, like the envoys of hell, but they are so real. Is it all for that woman? What is there about her Ding Muxue that is not as good as that woman?
"Don't be surprised, the king is telling the truth. Do you want to know why? Sympathy appeared in Gu Zhiqi's eyes.
Ding Muxue, from beginning to end, he has never been moved by this woman. She was used by her own family, by the power of the royal family, by his revenge, and everyone in this world seemed to be using her. And she, but always loyal to these people who use her, is it sad?
"Nope! I don't believe it! Ding Muxue didn't believe that her father was going to die, and she couldn't trust anyone, even herself.
"She interceded for you." Gu Zhiqi looked at Ding Ding Muxue, and a sentence was like a sharp knife piercing her heart.
"Mu Zhao?! It's her? How come?! I begged her, I begged her on my knees, but she gave me endless humiliation! No! No, it won't! Ding Muxue sat on the ground and looked at the dead things on the ground and scattered.
"Know that your father married you into the royal palace to find out everything about the king. And your father has long been in the same party as the crown prince. He knew that this king would die one day. On that day, if the king does not fight back, then the crown prince will completely wipe the king from this world on the way to the side! Your father, from beginning to end, knew it. You're just a victim of him. Gu Zhiqi was patient, and said softly, so softly, so fearlessly, as if he was not talking about his own business.
"Nope! No, it won't! I don't believe it! Ding Muxue had forgotten her mind, she didn't know what Gu Zhiqi was talking about, her mind was already in chaos.
"When this king dies, you will be the orphan of the eternal life of King An's mansion, and the eternal life will bear the name of rebellion." Gu Zhiqi continued, not caring about Ding Muxue's current appearance at all.
"Say no more! No way! No! No! Ding Muxue covered her ears and shouted loudly.
"And she advised the king, don't kill your father! She advised the king not to kill those who were plotting to kill the king in every possible way! You keep saying that you are the king's person, but except for her, including you, you have been betraying the king, from beginning to end. Gu Zhiqi looked down at her.
"Nope! Stop it! Stop it! Ding Muxue shook her head vigorously, she didn't believe it! She didn't believe it!
"Don't you want to know why this king still marries you?" Gu Zhiqi said again.
Ding Muxue put down her hand, raised her head, and looked at him with tears on her face, with indescribable pain and confusion in her eyes.
"Because, your surname is Ding, you are the queen's man, you are the prince's man, and you have a sharp blade in your hand that pierces the king. As long as this king has the slightest soft-heartedness, he will be torn to pieces by you. Gu Zhiqi curled the corners of his lips.
Ding Muxue just looked at him blankly, looking at this man, and even his breathing became weak. This man, since when did she no longer know him? Or does she not even remember when she didn't know herself? But she still remembers that on the day she married into the palace, this man used the country's financial resources to make her prosperous. Silk silk, gold and silver jewelry, innumerable, brocade ten miles, red like fire, she stepped into this door on that day.
She told herself countless times that she was Princess An, and no matter when and where, she would never leave behind that man. However, it turns out that from the very beginning, it was all a lie and a falsehood. It wasn't him who deceived her, it was she who deceived herself. Yes, her surname is Ding! She had never hated the last name so much. She even hated everything that this surname brought her, if she didn't have the surname Ding, could she get his true love like that woman.
"If Xue'er is not from the Ding family, will the prince still take a look at Xue'er?" Ding Muxue raised her head and asked stubbornly.
Gu Zhiqi just looked at her like this, and after looking at it for a long time, he opened his mouth gently: "No, there is no such thing." ”
"Hahaha! The prince is really ruthless! "Ding Muxue may have really understood this man from today.
"Tell me, where is she?" Gu Zhiqi waited for her to finish laughing, and asked silently.
Ding Muxue stood up, sat down in front of the dressing mirror again, picked up the unsipped red paper, and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the prince, and Xue'er doesn't know where she is." It should be, die. ”
Ding Muxue pursed her red lips as she spoke, wiping away the tears on her face one by one.
"Who is it?" Gu Zhiqi's voice suddenly became cold.
"Lord Wang, Mu Xue doesn't know. I only know that there is a person who hates her more than Mu Xue and took her away. As for how to take her away, Mu Xue did help. It's just that the eunuch is probably out of the city now, and the prince can't find it anymore. Even if it is her corpse, I am afraid that the prince will not have a chance to meet. Ding Muxue said as she arranged the beads on her head, she quietly took out the golden step when she got married, and carefully inserted it into the delicate bun.
"Someone!" Gu Zhiqi stood up.
"Lord Wang." Immediately outside the door, someone entered.
"The princess seems to have something to do with the rebel party, and she will be banned from today in Hongzhu Courtyard." Gu Zhiqi then said.
"Huh." Ding Muxue seemed to have expected it, and she didn't even save crying.
"All the subordinates around the princess have instigated them to be imprisoned and punished. Choose a day and make a decision. Gu Zhiqi left without looking back, leaving only Ding Muxue and the people who were crying all over the ground.
"Gu Zhiqi, I hate you!" Ding Muxue was only stunned for a while, and then shouted heartbreakingly in the direction he was walking.
She looked at the people who begged for mercy all over the place, but were dragged away by the guards, and her numb eyes were full of hollowness, until she was the only one left in the whole room, the door was closed, there was no light in the room, and even her heart fell into the endless abyss.
