Chapter 309 Biting Each Other

On the Li State side, ever since Murong Heli woke up, the army that had assembled overnight changed its target and went to suppress the bandits.

Yue Xing was also completely confused. He felt that his Highness was too unpredictable and difficult to predict, with weather conditions changing from sunny to rainy.

Ever since returning to Li Kingdom and regaining his status as the crown prince, Murong Heli has been obsessed with Qi Yue and has forgotten the most important thing.

This time, he was trapped in a dream and recalled what happened in the past. He felt that he was ridiculous. Although he had avenged his great hatred, he forgot to clear the injustice for his mother.

In order to depose the queen, Emperor Li conspired with Concubine Wen to accuse Queen Yue of committing debauchery in the palace. Fortunately, Yue Zhenwei's disciples were spread throughout the court and the country, so Emperor Li did not dare to touch the Yue family easily and could only force them to resign and retire.

Moreover, there were many suspicious points in the matter at that time, and Emperor Li did not dare to let people delve too deeply into it, for fear that flaws would be discovered, so he could only suppress it and end it hastily.

Fortunately, Queen Yue drank poisoned wine in exchange for Murong Heli's life, and she was dead without any evidence.

Now, it is time for him to clear his mother's name and let Emperor Li and Concubine Wen go down to atone for their sins to her as soon as possible.

Now, Emperor Li lies half-dead in the cold palace every day, unable to move, and Concubine Wen is locked up in there with him, acting crazy.

The door of the cold palace room was closed, the windows were sealed, and the room was filled with a foul stench.

In order to make the two suffer while alive, Murong Heli and Concubine Yue arranged for people to be sent in every two days to do a little cleaning, and they were fed with rotten rice and leftovers for one meal a day.

All the palace maids involved in the incident involving Queen Yue, including the guard, were killed by Emperor Li.

Murong Heli had people search the bedrooms of Emperor Li and Concubine Wen, and even the imperial study, but in the end they only found some incriminating evidence in the secret compartment of Yuqing Palace.

It seems that Concubine Wen was afraid that she would fall out of favor in the future and be abandoned by Emperor Li, so she left these evidences as a threat.

Unexpectedly, the so-called true love of Emperor Li turned out to be a rotten rice that was hard to swallow.

Murong Heli was thinking, if Murong Fu knew about this, would he be so angry that he would want to kill that bitch Wen Ruohan?

The thought made him feel happy, and after thinking about it, he ordered someone to copy the letter and send it to the cold palace.

Someone gave Wen Ruohan a temporary antidote, which made him sober up temporarily.

Murong Fu also temporarily regained the ability to speak, but was still unable to move.

The room was also cleaned up and the unpleasant smell was gone. Then Murong Heli and his men walked in with the evidence and the confession.

When the two saw him, hatred seemed to overflow from their eyes.

Murong Fu rolled his eyes, stared at him, and called him a rebellious son. Wen Ruohan bared his teeth and kept shouting and cursing.

Seeing her rushing towards him, Yue Xing kicked her away.

Murong Heli said coldly, "Cut one of her leg tendons."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

As soon as the words fell, the woman's screams echoed throughout the cold palace.

Wen Ruohan was frightened and crawled towards Murong Fu, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.

"Rebellious son! You rebellious son! She is your mother! How dare you do such a rebellious thing..."

Murong Heli sneered, pulled out a dagger and played with it in his palm.

"My biological mother is the wife that you, Murong Fu, had betrothed to three matchmakers and six betrothals to marry. She is the empress, the mother of the Emperor of Li, and the legitimate daughter of three dynasties."

"She, Wen Ruohan, is the daughter of a criminal. Is she worthy?"

Murong Fu excitedly retorted: "Nonsense! Han'er's father was framed back then..."

"Frameup?" Murong Heli laughed, his eyes full of sinisterness. He raised his hand holding a dagger and walked in front of the two of them, with the dagger pointing directly at the tip of Murong Fu's nose.

Wen Ruohan was so frightened when he saw this that he stepped back repeatedly, trembling as he huddled up in a ball holding his injured leg.

Murong Heli's laugh was eerie and terrifying, and his tone was like that of a Shura from hell.

"You think the embezzlement of 200,000 taels of disaster relief money is a frame-up? You think using the dead bones of the victims to build the riverbank is a frame-up? You think oppressing and killing the people is a frame-up? You think the truth that my grandfather asked my grandfather to find out is a frame-up?"

Murong Fu stared at the dagger in horror, fearing that his nose would be cut off by accident.

Yue Xing's eyes were also full of hatred. He was an orphan among the tens of thousands of disaster victims. If he had not been rescued by Yue Zhenwei who was ordered to investigate the case, he would have become one of the tens of thousands of dried bones.

This is also the reason why he has always been loyal to Murong Heli.

Murong Fu had no way of refutating these words, but he also didn't want to admit it, so he could only grit his teeth and remain silent.

Seeing this, Murong Heli raised his hand and pointed the dagger at Wen Ruohan, instantly scaring the man so much that he screamed.

He frowned and covered his ears, "Noisy."

Upon hearing this, a palace maid immediately stepped forward and slapped her in the face.

Wen Ruohan had never been treated like this before. She forgot her fear all of a sudden and was so angry that she wanted to scratch the palace maid's face.

"Bitch, you dare to hit me?"

The palace maid slapped her on the face again, making her face symmetrical.

Then he grabbed her foot where the tendons had been cut and squeezed it hard.

She screamed again in pain, but this time she didn't dare to be arrogant at all.

Murong Heli raised his hand, and the palace maid tactfully stepped aside.

Holding the dagger, he lifted Wen Ruohan's chin and said in a sinister tone, "Do you want to put your fingerprints on this confession while you're still alive? Or do you want to put your fingerprints on it after you die?"

The dagger slid to her neck.

The slightest movement could have cut her neck.

Wen Ruohan was so frightened that she dared not move, and could only hold back her trembling and said: "Just... let me live... I will press any button..."

Murong Heli retracted the dagger, raised his eyes and asked the palace maid to bring up the confession letter.

Seeing this, Murong Fu was helpless and furious and said, "You can't admit it! I order you not to press it! You can't press it even if you die!"

Murong Heli sat on the soft chair while playing with the dagger, and said leisurely: "Yuexing, show the letter that Concubine Wen kept to my good father."

Hearing this, Wen Ruohan immediately struggled.

"No! You can't look at that..."

The palace maid beside her immediately held the person down.

Yue Xing took the letter paper and placed it in front of Murong Fu one by one for him to read.

There were only about ten pages in total, and before I had even read half of them, I was so angry that I vomited blood, and the letter paper was stained with blood.

Murong Fu's mouth was full of blood, and he cursed helplessly: "Bitch! I have been cursed by the world for you! How dare you, a bitch, treat me like this! Bitch! I shouldn't have saved you in the first place!"

Wen Ruohan also lost his strength in an instant and collapsed to the ground.

"You are useless! You can't let me be the queen! Moreover, with a man like you who is so ruthless and heartless, if I lose your favor one day, I might end up like the Queen of Yue! If a man doesn't care about himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth! What's wrong with me leaving some evidence as a way out?"

"Bitch! I'm going to kill you!"

Seeing the two of them scolding each other, Murong Heli felt much better.

He casually threw the dagger over and said, "Kill him and you can live, otherwise you will be buried with him."
