Xu Tianze looked out the window. The sky was clear, and the rain-soaked branches were inexplicably dark, as if the innocence after baptism was revealed to the world.
"I do hate it." Xu Tianze's gaze remained fixed on the branches, calmly expressing his unknown state of mind. "Sometimes I hate it for no apparent reason, and sometimes it's well-founded."
"As the facts clearly show, you all gained some benefits, but I was the only one who suffered a real loss, and even suffered constant criticism."
"Even though you are innocent and never imagined that the previous generation would lay such a shocking plan, I still hate you~"
Lan Nuoling could no longer maintain the calmness on her face. She bit her lips tightly to hide her emotions. In fact, she has always been a vested interest holder, but she also really regarded Xu Li as her father and Xu Tianze as her own brother.
But no matter how much she didn't want to admit it, it was she and her sisters who owed Xu Tianze the most, and nothing they did could make up for it.
The empress sighed and gently patted Lan Noling's hand to comfort her. She had thought a lot during this period, but she had to choose a solution in the end.
She couldn't continue to drag it on and bring harm to the next generation, so when she saw Xu Tianze again, she would bring things up to her head to see what Xu Tianze really wanted.
If he wants the throne, she is willing to pay it back, whether it is the throne of Minglan Kingdom or Gan Kingdom. As long as Xu Tianze wants it, she thinks Long Mujiang will not object.
"What do you want? I know I owe you a lot, but if you have any request, I will definitely satisfy you." When the empress said this, there was determination in her eyes.
Long Mujiang, who had been standing outside the door, was also silently waiting for Xu Tianze's answer. He could hear the indifference in Xu Tianze's words, and naturally he could imagine the confusion and overwhelming hatred hidden under this indifference.
Just as the empress thought, if Aze really wanted something, he would get it even at the cost of his life.
"I don't want anything." Xu Tianze looked away and shook his head slowly, "You don't owe me anything."
When the empress changed her self-proclaimed name from "I" to "I", it showed how much she valued this promise. Xu Tianze also understood that as long as he said a few words, the empress and Long Mujiang would definitely satisfy him.
Now that Long Mujiang has said that he is waiting to kill him, it seems that he has made arrangements with Gan Kingdom.
But they were all wrong. He, Xu Tianze, no longer had anything to complain about, hate, or want. Although everything in this world seemed to be related to him, in fact, there was nothing he could touch anywhere.
"I, Xu Tianze, have been persuaded a long time ago. I no longer have the thought of revenge, and there is no one to take revenge on. I just hope that you will not appear in front of me." After Xu Tianze finished speaking solemnly, he stood up and walked outside.
When he reached the door, Xu Tianze turned his head to look at the windowsill, then turned and left.
After Xu Tianze left, Lan Nuoling could no longer hold on. Her eyes were red and her voice was choked with sobs: "Why doesn't he want anything? Even if he just opens his mouth, as long as he opens his mouth..."
"How can a person with a dead heart care about these worldly things?" The empress murmured to herself, with a sense of emptiness in her eyes.
If Xu Tianze really wanted something, she would definitely be dissatisfied, but no matter how dissatisfied she was, she would get it and give it to Xu Tianze. But when Xu Tianze really didn't want anything, she felt empty in her heart again.
Long Mujiang, who was standing at the corner, walked to the windowsill again. He looked at Xu Tianze's departing back and listened to the conversation between the two sisters in the room. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but that smile turned into a bitter smile in an instant.
This is how things are in the world. You have no choice but to let go. In the end, they were separated and may never have the chance to meet again.
Minglan Kingdom, Palace, Regent's Courtyard
Xu Tianze sat quietly in his room until dark. Then he sighed and began to slowly destroy all the secret weapons he had prepared.
It was hard to say when the hatred in his heart dissipated. He suddenly felt as if he was being unreasonable, and felt as if everyone owed him something.
But only when they are in a trance can they truly wake up. They are all born with their own mission, but most of them are forced to do so, and most of them only see the truth halfway through their journey.
Xu Tianze thought about overthrowing the entire Gan Kingdom. As long as Long Mujiang, Meng Qi, the Empress, and Lan Nuoling died, the world would be leaderless and disputes would inevitably arise again. After all, that position was still very attractive.
By then, he won't need to do anything anymore. The greed in people's hearts will drive the whole world into chaos, and Gan Kingdom and Minglan Kingdom will eventually be buried in the dust of history. How can this not be considered revenge?
If Emperor Gan, Xu Li, Song Zhenjiang and other old foxes knew about this in the afterlife, they would probably only regret their plan to use the world to gain a piece of chess, as in the end all their hard work was in vain.
However, the passage of time and Lan Nuoling's words eventually made his conscience prevail. If the world were to fall into chaos again.
Then countless people would starve to death, corpses would be everywhere, and cannibalism would happen again. This is the humiliation he suffered, and I am afraid that countless others would suffer from it.
So in the end he hesitated. This hesitation was as if he could no longer be so cruel as to let the whole world be buried with him. After tossing and turning for several days, he finally gave up in a cowardly manner.
Suddenly, Xu Tianze stopped, raised his head and looked outside, then continued the action he had just unfinished.
But only then did his movements slow down countless times. When he heard the unusual movement again, he suddenly pushed open the door and ran out. When he ran out, he found that the entire palace had become quiet without him knowing when, and unconscious palace maids and eunuchs could be seen everywhere.
Xu Tianze walked forward and squatted in front of an unconscious palace maid. He checked her breath and felt her pulse. Then he realized that it seemed that the remnants of the Cangjie Kingdom were attacking.
After all, the only thing that can make a large number of people unconscious in a short period of time and have immediate effects is Cang Yunxiang, the royal secret medicine of Cangjie Kingdom. No wonder I smelled a faint scent just now.
Then Xu Tianze rushed towards the only noisy place in the distance.
"Your Majesty, you must hold on. I will take you out to find a doctor." Lan Nuoling shouted while protecting the empress, and at the same time used the other hand to fight the thieves.
"A Ling, promise me that if anything happens to me, you must ascend the throne to stabilize the Minglan Kingdom." The empress's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her pretty face was extremely pale.
Originally, she didn't think there was anything wrong after Xu Tianze left. After all, there were palace maids around her who tested poisons, and nothing went wrong in her daily life.
But who knew that just such a short period of absence would give the remnants of the Cangjie Kingdom the opportunity to attack. Now the child in her womb may not be able to be saved, and I am afraid that even she herself will be doomed.
