The rebellious man was gagged by the guards and dragged out of Dongxu Palace without mercy.
When Li Xuanyi saw Jiu Di come in, he leaned back on the chair.
"Where have you been recently? I don't see you often in the palace."
This person always came and went quickly. Sometimes he would suddenly pop out from the roof and give him a scare.
He didn't have any worries. He would kill people when he received a mission and sleep when he didn't.
Jiu Di replied casually, fanning herself as usual: "I've been staying in the palace for too long and got a little bored, so I went out to play recently."
Outside the palace?
Everyone wanted to go outside the palace.
Li Xuanyi's eyelashes trembled. For some reason, Jiu Di's unrestrained and ostentatious smile gradually overlapped with Ling Yue's.
On the day after their wedding, she also pulled his sleeve and smiled brightly, celebrating that she could finally go out.
Li Xuanyi slowly stood up and walked towards the window.
The summer night was cool, and the breeze carried a faint floral scent, like the fragrance of her hair.
If I bring her some gardenias when I go back, will she like them?
"There's something I need you to do."
Jiu Di looked at Li Xuanyi, "What's the matter?"
"You will work with Cheng Feng and lead the golden armored guards to kill someone. This person is Zhou Yunhai's son, Zhou Yusheng."
"Former general? Zhou Yunhai?"
He had heard this name before when he was a killer.
I heard that this man is a tough guy. When he was young, he had defeated powerful enemies in the north many times, making them dare not move south.
Later, he returned to Beijing in his old age and was personally appointed as the General of National Defense by the emperor.
For military generals, this is the supreme honor.
But later on, he became so stubborn that he had to seek justice for the incompetent emperor.
At first, Li Xuanyi admired his achievements and planned to keep him in the position of General Protector of the Nation so that he could enjoy his old age.
But that man was extremely determined to kill Li Xuanyi.
I won't leave until I chop off his head.
Li Xuanyi finally gave the order to kill.
He is a man who will never show mercy when he wants to, and will never show sympathy when he wants to kill.
He wants to protect someone and he will not allow anyone to hurt her in the slightest until his death.
Even if the person he wants to kill escapes to distant places, he must hand over his head.
Life and death are clearly distinguished.
"Didn't they kill all the people in their family?"
Half an hour after Zhou Yunhai was shot to death by arrows, Li Xuanyi successfully took control of the palace.
Before the sun rose, he issued the order to massacre the entire clan.
There should be no relatives who escaped, especially an important person like his son.
"This person had not been in the capital before, so he hid."
Jiu Di responded quickly, "Okay, I understand."
Killing is his skill. As long as he is paid enough, even killing the emperor is not a problem.
Although there is no money involved between the two of them.
He didn't like to owe favors to others, and Li Xuanyi saved his life.
He killed people for him and helped him become emperor.
This was the last time he killed for Li Xuanyi.
The musician had saved his sister's life before.
His sister's life was much more important than his own, so this time he chose to help the musician.
He never hesitates when killing people. With one stroke of the thread, the life is over.
It only takes a blink of an eye.
But Li Xuanyi was much more cruel than him.
The musician's legs are broken and he has to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
His eyes were blind, but fortunately his hands could still play the piano and his ears could still hear.
Maybe I can make money by performing in the future and not end up living on the streets.
"After I kill this man, I won't come to the palace anymore. The palace has too many rules and it's not suitable for someone like me."
This is the truth.
Even if the matter of the zither player had not happened, he would not have planned to stay in the palace for long.
When Li Xuanyi heard this, he was shocked.
It sounds so familiar. The musician said the same thing about her.
Princess Lingyue has longed for freedom all her life, don't trap her in the palace.
Did he really do something wrong?
The moon hangs high in the sky and does not belong to anyone.
But he insisted on going against the rules. He didn't want her light to shine on others.
He wanted her to be his alone.
Su Yumo: Humph, you little mortal, you can’t catch the moon.
Li Xuanyi asked softly, "Do you think I should let her go?"
Jiu Di raised his eyebrows, put away the fan in his hand and touched his chin with it.
He still had to answer this question properly, perhaps it would save him a lot of trouble.
"I think... Your Majesty should just let it go. If your Majesty doesn't back down, and the princess doesn't back down either, no one will benefit if this continues. The relationship will become stagnant and deteriorate."
Li Xuanyi corrected him, "She's not a princess, she's a queen."
Jiu Di: You're about to be divorced, and you're still fussing about this trivial stuff. You deserve it.
"Yes, Queen, it's His Majesty the Emperor's most beloved Queen."
Li Xuanyi grabbed the window sill with his hand, and several scratches appeared on the wooden window under the action of his nails.
Palace maid: The emperor has found something for us to do again. We really can’t have a day off.
"You go down."
Li Xuanyi didn't want to let go of her hand, nor did he want her to be depressed every day.
But it is difficult to have both.
Does he really want to arrange for her to live in a courtyard outside the palace and have him visit her every day?
It doesn’t seem impossible.
At least we can ease the relationship between them and then take it slowly.
It just takes a lot of time to go back and forth.
He could review the memorials on the way back and forth, so that he could spend more time with her.
Is there any means of transportation faster than a horse-drawn carriage?
