"However, killing you right away would be too easy for you."
"I'll gouge out your eyes first, then cut off your hands and feet."
"Also, before you die, I want to tell you that I have never been Shen Rouci. This is the name you gave me. I am Jiang Zi."
After the empress finished speaking, she picked up the knife in her hand and stabbed the emperor.
Unexpectedly, Li Shengyuan was prepared, and no one knew what he had done, but a strong tremor suddenly occurred in the secret room.
Then, several more shackles were placed on top.
It trapped everyone inside.
Li Shengyuan laughed heartily.
“Even if you kill me, you won’t be able to leave.”
"Besides, from the very beginning, I had already decided that you couldn't hurt me."
As Li Shengyuan finished speaking.
Mi Shan inwardly cried out in alarm; he had to escape.
Sure enough, the floor tiles beneath Li Shengyuan's feet loosened, and the next second, he plummeted downwards, disappearing from everyone's sight.
It was so fast that no one could react.
Everyone was trapped inside, except for Li Shengyuan, who casually walked in from the outside.
"You dog emperor, what do you want to do to us? Let us out at once!" said Empress Rouci.
"If I let you go, will you have another chance to kill me?"
Li Shengyuan sneered, "Don't worry, I won't take your lives immediately. As soon as it's light, I'll regain my strength. At that time, after the Empress Dowager's death, Tongji, I will personally take your lives."
Blood was flowing from his face and arms, making him look extremely frightening.
At that moment, Tongji frantically grabbed the iron bars and shouted at him, "Your Majesty, you can't kill me! This is against the will of Heaven!"
"What Heavenly Dao? Why shouldn't Heavenly Dao let me kill you? You old bald monk, you're getting more and more audacious!" Li Shengyuan stared at him coldly, his eyes filled with icy intent.
Xie Ling frowned, as if she had already guessed something.
Sure enough, Tongji cried out anxiously, "I am your biological father! Killing me is against the laws of Heaven!"
Today, he seemed more frail than usual, much thinner, with a white beard covering his wrinkled face, and his bald head reflecting light in the night.
"Hahahaha, what a joke! This is truly the funniest joke I've heard all day." Li Shengyuan laughed so hard he almost fell over. "You, a monk, dare to say such absurd things."
"What's wrong with being a monk? I can give birth to Kongwang, and I can give birth to you. Have you forgotten what the Empress said before? That's right, all the children in this harem are actually my descendants! Not only that, the late Emperor and I were also..."
"What did you say?" Li Shengyuan clicked his tongue in astonishment, as if struck by lightning.
"The late emperor and I were homosexuals. For some reason, he was infertile. But as the emperor of a dynasty, he could not be without an heir. So..."
Tongji paused here,
"He decided to have me take his place and sleep with the concubines. The previous concubines were all kept in the dark until one day, the Empress discovered the secret..."
"It was the late emperor who wronged the empress first. In order to keep this secret, he took Kong Wang under his wing and left her a secret decree."
"You speak with such conviction, but why should I believe you? Besides, if I were your own son, would you use a curse to kill me? You're clearly just spouting nonsense!"
"I cast the spell because I knew the birth date and time weren't yours. I knew it wouldn't have any effect on you. Others might not know your birth year and month, but how could I not know?"
Tongji said,
He revealed Li Shengyuan's correct birth date and time.
Mi Shan listened from the side and felt it was absolutely explosive.
I never imagined that the late emperor and Tongji had such a relationship. But why couldn't the late emperor have children?
Mi Shan was puzzled.
Xie Ling, however, kept a cold expression, as if none of this concerned him.
Only Li Shengyuan looked utterly dejected, then a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Don't try to fool me. Whether you're my biological father or not, it doesn't matter. You're about to die, so saying these things is pointless. Even if you really are, then you deserve to die even more!"
After Li Shengyuan finished speaking, he directly pressed the switch on the dragon head cane.
Suddenly, the ceiling opened, and a canopy fell down, accurately covering the location of Tongji University.
Tongji panicked even more: "Really, I really am your father. I was thinking that since you are disobedient, I might as well take you down and let Kongwang become the emperor. He has always been very respectful to me. If he becomes the emperor, I will be like the emperor emeritus. However, you are still my son after all, and I can't bear to do it."
That's why I didn't make a move against you earlier.
Seeing you injured breaks my heart, but I know it's nothing to you.
You possess an immortal body; at dawn, you will return to your original state.
Just now, when you pressed the mechanism and locked us all in, I had a chance to stop you, but I didn't, because as your father, I ultimately didn't want you to be in danger..."
"Enough, you disgust me. You are not worthy to be called my father, I will send you away right now," Li Shengyuan said coldly.
Although his resolve had wavered, and he knew that what Tongji said might be true.
It's possible that my father was gay.
It is possible that he made a pact with his father to have him favor the concubines and bear children in his place.
So,
The best way for him to keep this secret is to kill Tongji University and everyone who knows it.
