Since Li Yu had decided to help Liang, he didn't want to let Liang make an extra trip, so he immediately took King Jing with him and went back to see the emperor.
When the emperor learned that Li Yu wanted to help Liang, he was very surprised, but thinking about how Princess Jing taught her sons, he felt that Li Yu was a kind-hearted person.
"He thinks so, what about you?" The emperor asked King Jing, wanting to know his opinion.
King Jing nodded to show his support for Li Yu.
The emperor was now happy to give face to King Jing and his wife, and said, "In this case, I agree."
The emperor wanted to remind him of something, but after thinking about it, he shut up.
Li Yu quickly brought the news to Liang. Liang was afraid that the guards would stop her, so she asked Li Yu to go with her. Li Yu hesitated for a moment, thinking that
he would do his best. After obtaining King Jing's consent, he sent Liang to the tent where the Sixth Prince was imprisoned. It was absolutely impossible to go one step further. Li Yu also had to be careful, and it was not that he wanted to visit the Sixth Prince.
Liang thanked him profusely and entered the tent.
Seeing Mu Tianxiao, who was dirty and handcuffed, Liang's red and swollen eyes could not stop shedding tears.
"Suyun, why are you here?" Mu Tianxiao was overjoyed when he saw his wife. The guards who were responsible for guarding him did not allow him to see anyone, so why did Liang show up? Did this mean that the emperor had softened his attitude?
"Did the emperor ask you to come? Did he forgive me?" Mu Tianxiao asked anxiously.
"I did it myself. I went to ask King Jing and Princess Jing for help, and then the emperor showed mercy." Liang explained timidly, fearing that the Sixth Prince would be unhappy.
"King Jing again?" Mu Tianxiao's face suddenly changed when he heard King Jing's name, and he pushed his wife's hand away impatiently, "Why did you ask him when you could ask anyone else! Don't you know that he is the one who hurt me?"
The Sixth Prince thought about his failure and felt that he was schemed by King Jing. The Emperor was targeting him because he believed King Jing's words. The Sixth Prince blamed King Jing for all the mistakes.
Liang wiped her tears, not knowing how to answer. Should she tell the Sixth Prince that no one else was willing to help them now?
Mu Tianxiao was imprisoned and could no longer pretend. He cursed the King Jing's family, even the King Jing's young son, and cursed as harshly as he could.
After cursing enough, he seemed to finally remember something. He turned back to look at Liang, and his tone became gentle again.
"Suyun, don't cry." He reached out to wipe Liang's tears and said expectantly, "Since you are here, please help me beg my father. For the sake of the child in your belly, he will definitely let me out. I promise to treat you well in the future." Liang
heard him keep making promises, but there was a false smile on his face without any warmth. She felt a pang of pain in her heart. How could she have been deceived by the Sixth Prince before?
This husband who always seemed to be very gentle, obviously only had him in his heart.
Li Yu and King Jing were standing outside the tent. The Sixth Prince was cursing inside, and they could hear it.
King Jing didn't care about being scolded, but the Sixth Prince even scolded Xiaoyu and the children. King Jing's expression became sinister and he tightly grasped the sword.
"Tianchi, don't!" Li Yu quickly grabbed King Jing's arm.
When he heard the Sixth Prince scolding his son, Li Yu wanted to beat the Sixth Prince's head, but King Jing was about to teach the Sixth Prince a lesson, so he couldn't do that.
Mu Tianxiao was already a prisoner of the emperor, and it was not appropriate to beat him in public. With King Jing's current status, he could use a shackle, but there was no need to do it himself, which would make the emperor think too much.
Li Yu whispered to King Jing a few ways to embarrass the Sixth Prince. After listening to it, King Jing looked at Li Yu who had just been soft-hearted and helped Liang, and was quite speechless.
Li Yu stuck out his tongue mischievously: "Let's put things aside. Liang is pitiful. The Sixth Prince has done so many evil things, and I will not forgive him for this."
Little Yu always has a lot of reasons. King Jing smiled and rubbed his head, and was persuaded.
The Sixth Prince uttered dirty words again, and the two looked at each other and pretended not to hear it for the time being.
Liang came to see the Sixth Prince, not only to know how the Sixth Prince was doing, but also to hope that the Sixth Prince could completely turn around and be a good person.
The Sixth Prince wanted to compete for the throne, and Liang, as his wife, had more or less seen it. In the past, Liang thought that her husband had his own ideas, and as his wife, she really couldn't interfere. Besides, which woman wouldn't fantasize about the opportunity to go further?
Therefore, although Liang didn't participate, she didn't actually stop it. Now Liang regretted it. She regretted that she was obsessed with it at the beginning. How good would it be if she had advised the Sixth Prince to be down-to-earth earlier?
She didn't dare to ask for anything else, just hope that her husband and children could be safe.
Liang advised earnestly, and the Sixth Prince's eyes widened in disbelief. Liang didn't want to help him as he asked, but why did she blame him?
Wasn't the title of the Crown Prince's Consort because of him? What good would Liang do if he was held captive by the emperor?
The Sixth Prince was angry and had other plans. He smiled coldly and said to Liang: "You have a point... Suyun, come here, I have a secret to tell you."
Liang was not on guard against Mu Tianxiao. He called her and she went over. Mu Tianxiao suddenly put handcuffs and chains around her neck.
"Tianxiao, what are you doing!" Liang was shocked and scared, and shouted repeatedly.
"Don't move." Mu Tianxiao locked her neck and shouted coldly to the outside of the tent, "Come here, I want to see the emperor, otherwise - I will kill her!"
I will kill her!
This sentence completely ruined the relationship between the Sixth Prince and Liang.
Liang looked at Mu Tianxiao with tears in her eyes, feeling that her heart had been strangled to death bit by bit.
Prince Jing and Li Yu were just outside. They rushed in with their guards after hearing the news.
Li Yu didn't know what to say when he saw the Sixth Prince holding the Sixth Prince's wife.
The Sixth Prince's eyes were bloodshot and his face looked like a devil. He kept shouting that he wanted to see the emperor. Some guards had already run to report.
Li Yu watched Liang struggling in pain. He wanted to help her, but he was afraid that the Sixth Prince would get mad and really hurt Liang.
"Mu Tianxiao, are you still a human being? She is your wife and she is pregnant with your child!"
Li Yu felt sorry for Liang. Why did he always encounter things that were more outrageous than novels?
The Sixth Prince snorted and laughed a few times, and tears seemed to flash in the corners of his eyes.
"I can't even protect myself, so what do I need a wife and children for?" The Sixth Prince said nonchalantly.
The emperor arrived soon, and faced with the Sixth Prince's request, the emperor was furious.
"Mu Tianxiao, are you crazy? Let Liang go!" the emperor shouted.
"Father! Now that you are here, please listen to my last words. I remember that I did nothing wrong. I was framed by King Jing! Father, you don't know how scheming he is. He planned everything!"
Mu Tianxiao tried his best to defend himself. King Jing was listening, motionless. After listening, the emperor shook his head in disappointment.
"That's enough, Tianxiao. Wasn't it your idea to frame Concubine Lu? Wasn't it you who instigated Doctor Pan? Didn't you send someone to sneak into King Jing's mansion to take Dabao's blood? Wasn't all this forced by King Jing?" Mu Tianxiao was stunned:
"Father..."
Why did the emperor even know that he sent someone to take blood?
In a flash, Mu Tianxiao understood everything. It turned out that King Jing had guessed what he was going to do since that time.
It was ridiculous. When he thought he had the other party's handle, the other party was already waiting for him to fall into the trap.
"Father, it was really King Jing who plotted against me!" Mu Tianxiao wanted to expose King Jing angrily.
"Enough." The emperor interrupted him coldly, "Why should I trust a man who didn't even let his wife and children go, but not King Jing?"
"Tianxiao, there is a sentence you often say to escape my punishment, and now I will give it back to you."
"All of this is just your 'one-sided statement'."
"Father..."
Mu Tianxiao was stunned and laughed, as if the emperor was joking, and then he gritted his teeth.
"Bah, you are partial to King Jing and have never believed in me!"
The Sixth Prince spat, staring at King Jing and the Emperor with a trapped beast-like gaze.
The guards in front of him circled behind him and slashed at the back of the Sixth Prince's neck with a knife.
The Sixth Prince shouted in a hoarse voice: "Hurry up and do it!"
Li Yu: !!!
Li Yu realized from Mu Tianxiao's sudden words that there were Sixth Prince's accomplices around, and someone had taken advantage of the chaos to stab the Emperor with a dagger. This was the last arrangement of the Sixth Prince.
It was used to make a crazy attack on the person he hated when necessary.
Mu Tianxiao hated his birth, hated King Jing who took everything from him, but what he hated most was his father who never liked him and didn't take him seriously even though he tried hard to please him.
He knew that the emperor would not kill him, but he couldn't stand it and became transparent again.
At this moment, Li Yu was closest to the emperor, and he subconsciously pushed the emperor away, but he didn't have time to dodge and was accidentally exposed to the dagger.
Xiaoyu——!
King Jing let out thousands of shouts in his chest and rushed over anxiously with a sword.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Li Yu closed his eyes in fear.
There was the sound of whistling wind and various messy voices in his ears.
He waited for a while, and there was no pain.
Li Yu opened his eyes again, and saw a palace maid holding a dagger, standing in front of him, with the tip of the dagger just a finger's distance away from him.
With a thud, the dagger fell to the ground.
The palace maid's chest had been pierced from behind by King Jing's sword.
It was King Jing who saved him!
"Tianchi, I'm fine!" Li Yu shouted excitedly.
King Jing drew his sword coldly, kicked the palace maid aside, and hugged Li Yu who rushed over.
The Sixth Prince was pinned to the ground by the guards, unable to move. Liang had been rescued, and was watching all this in horror.
Unexpectedly, until the end, he didn't even touch the emperor's dragon robe. The Sixth Prince was extremely desperate.
He suddenly saw a beauty in palace dress in the bustling crowd. This person had a beautiful face, like a fairy in a painting, with indifferent and delicate eyebrows and eyes, quietly watching everything.
Mu Tianxiao looked at this person greedily, and after thinking for a while, he remembered who this person was.
This was the emperor's new favorite, Chu Guiren. He personally presented a chess piece to the dragon bed. It was his person!
Yu'er, help me...
Mu Tianxiao lay on the ground and begged silently.
He still had hope, and Chu Yanyu was now his last hope.
Chu Yanyu seemed to have seen him as well, and smiled at him from a distance, just as gentle as she was to him when he was young, and then turned and left without any nostalgia, taking all his hopes.
The emperor was not injured after the false alarm, but he was no longer polite to the Sixth Prince who dared to assassinate him.
Mu Tianxiao murmured "Kill me" and was tied up by the guards and dragged away.
Liang knelt on the ground, sobbing.
"Tianchi!" Li Yu hugged King Jing tightly. He was really scared just now.
At that time, he thought of the emperor who was very affectionate to the children, and the emperor was also King Jing's father.
The assassination of the Sixth Prince was too sudden. There was no time to think about anything else except saving a life.
King Jing did not blame Li Yu for being reckless, but hugged him and rubbed his head briefly.
Li Yu keenly noticed that King Jing's face was not right.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Li Yu asked with concern.
King Jing seemed to be feeling really unwell, and he gently let go of Li Yu, pressing his chest with one hand.
Li Yu had never seen him pant so violently before, and suddenly he covered his lips and coughed violently a few times, with a stream of black blood seeping out from between his fingers.
"Tianchi, what's wrong with you!"
