Emperor Jinde: "Prince Kang, you disappoint me so much."
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
"Duke Zhenguo, you old fox have finally revealed your true colors. After all these years, it's time to put an end to it."
Emperor Jinde seems to be full of energy and has a rosy complexion. How can he look like he is terminally ill?
The Duke of Zhenguo was so angry that he felt dizzy.
Good thing they got fooled again.
First, the crown prince pretended to be assassinated and seriously injured, and then Emperor Jinde pretended to be bedridden and had not much time left. They were all lies to them.
They were badly deceived.
The Duke of Zhenguo really had a heart attack.
A bitter taste spread in his mouth, and King Kang raised his eyelashes slightly, "Disappointed?"
"Does the emperor really have a son like me in his eyes?"
"It was the Wei family who helped my father ascend the throne, but he made Situ the empress. Where is my mother?"
"Is Father worthy of the Wei family? Is he worthy of Mother?"
"Has the Emperor ever trusted the Wei family or me in all these years?"
Emperor Jinde said in a deep voice, "You want me to believe that you are a traitor who killed your father and brother?"
"Do you believe that you are so scheming and scheming? Even when my mother is in danger, you are still pretending to be famous?"
"How can I trust a heartless man like you who killed his first wife with his own hands?"
"You've thoroughly learned the Wei family's unscrupulous, selfish, and heartless ways. You haven't listened to a single word of what I taught you: loyalty, benevolence, trustworthiness, and righteousness."
King Kang's face turned dark purple, as if a basin of ice water had been poured over his head, and he felt like he had fallen into a cold pond.
Emperor Jinde exposed his wolfish ambitions, his meanness and ruthlessness, and trampled on the beautiful image he had created.
The corners of King Kang's mouth trembled slightly, and he sneered and said, "Do you think I've lost just like that?"
"Haha, this king still has a trump card."
He looked at Xie Qingyao, "Xie Qingyao, you've been infected with the Heart Binding Gu. You must do whatever I tell you to do, or you will bleed to death."
"Marquis Anguo, you don't want anything to happen to your wife and children, do you? Then obey me obediently..."
"Is this the Heart-Binding Gu you were talking about?" Xie Qingyao interrupted him and took out a crystal clear bottle.
Inside, there was a Gu.
King Kang's face tightened, his Adam's apple moving a few times. "You, what's that in your hand?"
Xie Qingyao said lightly, "The offspring of the Heart Binding Gu, isn't that the one you asked Concubine Qi to plant in me?"
Upon hearing this, King Kang's pupils shrank, "Impossible!"
His face looked gloomy and a little scary.
"That's impossible. Qi Wanying clearly cast a spell on you...how could it fail?"
"You are deceiving this king, you are lying!"
King Kang's breathing became heavier. He tried to activate the mother Gu in his body and then gave orders to Xie Qingyao.
"Xie Qingyao, I order you to kill the Marquis of Anguo, kill His Majesty, and kill the Crown Prince. Kill them all."
"kill--"
After he finished speaking, he stared at Xie Qingyao, but Xie Qingyao remained indifferent. Instead, the Gu in her hand was jumping around and was very active, as if responding to him.
In an instant, King Kang felt completely cold.
With a "puff" sound, blood flowed out from the corners of his lips. He was so stimulated by Xie Qingyao that he vomited blood.
Xie Qingyao was not poisoned.
What he thought was his trump card was nothing from the beginning to the end and was a joke.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to spare Prince Kang's life." Concubine Wei stumbled over and knelt in front of Emperor Jinde.
"Prince Kang was just confused for a moment, Your Majesty."
Her hair was stuck to her face in a mess, and there were tears in her eyes, making her look pitiful.
"Mother, why are you doing this?" Prince Kang closed his eyes and said, "Wei army, listen to my order, release your arrows and kill everyone on the opposite side on the spot."
At this moment, Concubine Wei could hardly believe it.
Her own son didn't even care about her life and was going to kill her too.
For the throne, he even gave up his mother?
The Duke of Zhenguo choked and said, "Wait, your mother is still over there..."
But King Kang refused to listen.
At this point, if he loses, he will have no way out and he can only go down this path to the end.
For his great cause.
"Uncle, after this is accomplished, I will bury my mother with honor and posthumously confer the title of Queen Mother upon her."
All the archers of the Wei family were ready to attack. They were outnumbered and doomed to die. But even if they died, they would take someone with them.
"Wait--" Xie Qingyao spoke, took a step forward, and looked into King Kang's eyes.
"Do you dare to look me in the eyes?"
"..." King Kang narrowed his eyes, "What tricks do you want to play now?"
Xie Qingyao immediately shook her head: "I don't want to play any tricks, I just want you to lose clearly."
"Do you know why you lost?"
King Kang scoffed, a little impatient: "Why?"
Xie Qingyao took another step forward, but He Zheng grabbed her wrist and pulled her back into his arms.
He Zheng: "Let's talk about it right here."
Xie Qingyao coughed and continued to stare into King Kang's eyes and said, "Those who are righteous have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous have few supporters."
"You killed your wife and father, and you even disregarded your own mother's life. You are doomed to fail."
“Even God couldn’t bear to watch.”
King Kang was stunned, and his eyes gradually became dazed and confused.
"Then what should I do?"
After a moment, his voice came softly.
Xie Qingyao: "You should withdraw your troops, stop before it's too late, and turn back."
King Kang shed two lines of tears and said blankly: "Yes, you are right, I should withdraw my troops, withdraw my troops..."
He slowly turned around and said to the Wei family army behind him: "You all retreat, retreat..."
The Duke of Zhenguo paused, "King Kang?!"
"What are you doing? If you retreat now, all your efforts will be in vain."
King Kang did not answer, but just kept muttering: "Retreat, retreat..."
Xie Qingyao: "Wei Jiajun, your Highness Prince Kang has given the order. Do you intend to disobey it and resist stubbornly?"
At this time, King Kang roared fiercely: "All of you retreat, retreat for me!"
"I lost... I lost..."
The game is over.
The Wei army surrendered, King Kang was captured, and the Duke of Zhenguo was unable to stir up trouble and was arrested and imprisoned.
Emperor Jinde was puzzled: "Why did Prince Kang suddenly come to his senses? He seems more like he's gone mad."
Xie Qingyao felt tired and replied casually, "How do I know? Maybe he was fooled by me and his conscience has been awakened."
Emperor Jinde did not ask any further questions.
King Kang suddenly woke up in prison, recalled everything that had happened, and shouted: "How could this happen?"
"I haven't lost yet. I won't accept my fate!"
"Xie Qingyao, you witch, you know witchcraft, what did you do to this king?"
What kind of stupid thing did he do to order his troops to retreat and surrender?
"I don't know any witchcraft, I just know the Xie family's soul-stealing technique." A clear voice sounded behind him.
Prince Kang wanted to strangle Xie Qingyao to death.
Xie Qingyao, however, was calm and natural. "Your Highness Prince Kang, do you want to know what it feels like to have the Heart Binding Gu?"
