Long San bowed slightly, but his face remained calm and his eyes were somewhat empty, just like a puppet.
Ma Zheng brought Jiang Ti out of Long Musi's study and went straight to Xu Tianze's yard. When they stood at the gate of Xu Tianze's yard, Ma Zheng hesitated rarely.
"Do you know why the master gave you to Mr. Xu?" Ma Zheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Ti in front of him.
She is extremely charming in a red dress, and also looks flamboyant and evil. The most important thing is that this beauty is a man.
Jiang Ti looked indifferent all the way until he heard Ma Zheng's words, then his expression changed slightly. He looked up at Ma Zheng.
The deep eyes are as calm as a well, but also an abyss that people can fall into.
"Master Ma, you have crossed the line. Out of your kindness, Jiang Ti will conceal it for you. But please be careful with your words and actions in the future." Jiang Ti's tone was a little distant, and he did not directly answer Ma Zheng's words.
"I don't know what you mean." Ma Zheng felt that his kindness was taken for granted. He shook his head and said this before walking straight into the yard.
In his opinion, unless Jiang Ti had thought of his own retreat early on, given Xu Tianze's current personality, if Jiang Ti stayed by Xu Tianze's side, he would only end up dead.
When Jiang Ti saw Ma Zheng turn around, the faint smile on his face disappeared instantly, and his face became dull again.
Here, Xu Tianze was still holding Xichen with a satisfied look on his face. The satisfaction of finally having food in his mouth reduced Xu Tianze's bloodthirsty impulse a lot.
Even the irritability he had just felt was soothed a lot. In his heart, the taste of Long Mujiang left him wanting more, while the taste of Xichen had a hint of youthfulness.
"Mr. Xu."
"Get out!!!" Xu Tianze's mood, which had just calmed down, suddenly became violent, and he blurted out the words before he even had time to suppress it.
Ma Zheng, who was standing outside the door, raised his hand, not knowing whether to continue knocking on the door or put it down, with embarrassment and helplessness on his face.
After Xu Tianze finished yelling, his rationality returned a little. He took a deep breath and fiercely blocked Xichen's lips, exploring back and forth, and then he completely calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Tianze patted Xichen lightly and gestured for him to get up. The two then stood up and dressed neatly. Xichen did not show any dissatisfaction or delay throughout the whole process.
Just when Xichen was about to leave the bed and stand aside to serve, Xu Tianze pulled Xichen and sat directly on the bed.
"There is more than one person outside. Guess what King Jing wants to do most right now?" Xu Tianze put his arm around Xichen's waist and put on a human skin mask for Xichen himself.
"Xichen understands." Xichen sat obediently beside Xu Tianze, and leaned his body into Xu Tianze's arms.
Xu Tianze did not think that Xichen's behavior was wrong. Instead, he admired Xichen's intelligence, and there was a hint of real warmth in his eyes, which had always been indifferent.
If Xichen does not betray Xu Tianze in the future, perhaps Xu Tianze will really treat Xichen as his own and take him under his protective wing.
"Young Master, His Highness has ordered me to come here to convey something." Jiang Ti spoke suddenly while standing behind Ma Zheng.
Ma Zheng was startled by Jiang Ti's sudden words and looked at Jiang Ti in astonishment. Before he could react, Xu Tianze's voice came from inside the room:
"Enter."
Jiang Ti pushed Ma Zheng aside and went in first.
When he entered, he saw a handsome man with disheveled clothes and half-open shirt, hugging another boy with an ordinary face.
Jiang Ti then lowered his head, walked to the bed and knelt down: "Your Highness, I greet you. I am the servant of Your Highness. I beg Your Highness to give me to you. I hope Your Highness will have mercy on me in the future."
Xu Tianze glanced at Jiang Ti without saying anything. He stared at Ma Zheng with an undisguised murderous intent on his face.
When Ma Zheng followed Jiang Ti in, he saw Xu Tianze with his arms half open. He was unable to react for a moment. When he woke up because of Xu Tianze's murderous intent, the clothes on his back, which had been slightly dry, were wet with sweat again.
"I am sorry for being rude, sir. Please punish me." Ma Zheng quickly knelt down with his head lowered.
"Ma Zheng, you and I are old acquaintances. If possible, I really don't want to kill you, but you have angered me again and again." Xu Tianze walked barefoot in front of Ma Zheng and stepped on Ma Zheng's shoulder.
"Tell me, should I kill you?" Xu Tianze leaned over, pinched Ma Zheng's hair, and forced Ma Zheng to look at him.
"If you want my life, sir, I will certainly offer it with both hands." Ma Zheng's eyes were dim and he uttered the words with difficulty.
Although he was not smart enough, he still understood his prince's intention. After all, it was just a worthless life. Since Xu Tianze wanted it, he could just take it.
As long as his father wasn't involved, nothing else mattered.
Thinking of his old father, Ma Zheng closed his eyes, but still did not plead for himself. He knew that Xu Tianze no longer had any affection for him.
In Long Musi's eyes, he has become a discarded chess piece, so instead of struggling, it is better to be decisive in the end. Maybe his old father can live the rest of his life in peace.
"I'm not interested in your life, but I'm very interested in your father's life. Do you think Long Muse will give him to me?" As Xu Tianze stood up, he kicked Ma Zheng to the ground with force.
He looked down at Ma Zheng with extremely cold eyes, as if he just wanted to kill an ant.
"Sir, you can take my life, but my father." Ma Zheng quickly got up and reached out to grab the corner of Xu Tianze's clothes.
Xu Tianze was originally impatient and wanted to kick Ma Zheng away, but suddenly he felt that the scene in front of him was somewhat familiar.
When he remembered why he felt this scene was familiar, a tear suddenly slipped across the corner of his eye. After a long time, Xu Tianze smiled self-deprecatingly.
"A humble and pitiful creature will eventually become the person he once hated the most."
Upon hearing this, Ma Zheng did not understand what Xu Tianze meant. He just looked at Xu Tianze pleadingly, praying that Xu Tianze would change his mind.
On the contrary, Xichen and Jiang Ti, who had been quietly acting as the background, had a dark look in their eyes when they heard Xu Tianze's words, and then returned to normal.
"This is a poison that can penetrate the intestines. It will take effect at midnight tomorrow. After you take it, all the past events will disappear into thin air." Xu Tianze threw a small porcelain bottle to Ma Zheng, then turned around and returned to the bed.
Originally, Xu Tianze wanted to kill Ma Zheng directly, or let Ma Zheng's father die in front of Ma Zheng, and then kill Ma Zheng.
After all, the chicken that was offered had to be killed to serve as a warning, but in the end Xu Tianze still softened his heart.
It's not that he was soft-hearted, but Xu Tianze thought of himself when the Xu family was slaughtered and he was in a desperate situation with no way out.
