Before Li Jian came, Chun Yuqing had just heard that Xuan Tianhua was blown up by thunder outside the west gate of Tongcheng, and no one was found alive or dead. The analysis given by her secret guards was: such a large minefield, with dense mines, how could someone be blown up inside, there is no chance of survival. The reason why the body was not found was probably because it was blown to pieces without leaving any bones.
Chun Yuqing couldn't accept this fact. She felt very upset and had no place to vent her anger. Suddenly, Li Jian rushed in and yelled at her, which gave her an outlet. This empress, who had always been impeccable since entering the palace, fell out with the emperor for the first time. Facing Li Jian's threat, she sneered and said, "Okay, if you want to depose me, just issue an order, but you have to think about it. If you depose me at this time, it will be equivalent to completely falling out with the Chunyu family. By then, Zong Sui will not only lose three border cities, but I'm afraid even the capital will not be able to be defended. Moreover, Li Jian, don't you think about it, at this time, who still cares about the position of empress? I heard that some people in the court have questioned how you got to the throne, and some are even secretly looking for Li Kun. Li Jian, you haven't been able to find the will in Li Kun's hand, right? Humph, before you mention deposing the empress, you should think about how to protect yourself. If you really want to, go find Duanmu Anguo, who has lost his arm but is still alive, and have him tortured and torn to pieces to avenge the pain of losing the three cities, instead of running to the empress to get angry with a woman."
After Chun Yu Qing finished speaking, he turned away, leaving Li Jian standing there, shaking with anger.
But Chunyu Qing was right! He was just showing off his eloquence. He had never dared to touch anyone in the Chunyu family before. Now the country was in crisis and the military power was still in Chunyu An's hands. How dare he depose the queen? I'm afraid if he deposed her today, he would be driven out of the palace tomorrow, right? For the first time, Li Jian regretted so much that he had used such despicable means to fight for the throne. Even if he sat on the throne, he was still controlled by others. Before he could slowly grow wings and prepare to turn over, a wrong decision would ruin everything he had.
"Duanmu Anguo!" Li Jian gritted his teeth, "If you show up again one day, I will definitely use the most cruel punishment in the world to treat you to relieve my hatred!" He closed his eyes and tried to calm down the anger in his heart. Chunyu Qing just mentioned Li Kun. It's not that he didn't want to get the will of the previous emperor in Li Kun's hand. But Li Kun ran away! Why did he run to Dashun? The spies he sent out sent back a message that Li Kun had been secretly protected by Dashun, and it was impossible for him to take action.
For the first time, Li Jian felt fear. For the first time, he felt as if Zong Sui was really going to be destroyed in his hands. If the Li family's foundation of hundreds of years was destroyed like this, how could he face his ancestors?
But think about it again, even if it is not destroyed, will he have the face to see his ancestors? For the throne, he killed his father and brother, and did all the unscrupulous things. How can he see his ancestors like this? What a pity! Even if he wanted to build a separate imperial mausoleum for himself, he didn't know if he would have the opportunity. The threat from Dashun was too terrible, and he really regretted it.
At that time, Li Kun was chopping wood in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Compared with Li Jian who was trembling with fear all day long, he was much more comfortable. He got up early every morning, fetched water, chopped wood, and occasionally had to follow Feng Tianyu's orders to wash a few clothes. It seemed hard, but life was peaceful. Apart from eating and working, there was nothing else to do. The Prime Minister's Mansion did not put him under house arrest. He could still leave the mansion freely. In fact, the Prime Minister's Mansion did not care about him at all. He could go wherever he wanted. It was better for him to leave, so as not to send people to protect him.
But in the end, it was Li Kun who didn't dare to leave, and didn't want to leave. No matter how strict the Dashun's defense was, it was impossible to have no loopholes. He finally escaped and hid for so long, how could he give up all his efforts? But think about it again, is it right for me to do this? He initially held out hope that Dashun could help him regain the throne. As long as he became the Emperor of Sui, he would definitely not turn against Dashun.
But now thinking about it, I was too naive. Dashun had spent a lot of effort and suffered casualties to defeat Zong Sui. How could it be returned to him? As long as that country belonged to someone else, Dashun would run the risk of being rebelled. At that time, all the efforts today would be wasted and everything would have to start all over again.
Therefore, Dashun would definitely swallow up Zong Sui and incorporate it into its territory. As a member of the Zong Sui royal family, he was lucky to be able to save his life, so why would he negotiate with others? In this way, he was equivalent to handing over the Li family's world, but if you think about it again, it can't be considered that he gave it up! After all, it was Li Jian who rebelled, and Zong Sui would always lose in this war. In the final analysis, Zong Sui was destroyed by Li Jian, and it had nothing to do with him.
Li Kun thought, this is actually good. Instead of being harmed by Li Jian, it is better to let Dashun take care of it. The people of Zong Sui will definitely live better under Dashun's rule. And as long as the people live well, who is the emperor? The Li family owns the world, and they also hope to bring a good life to the people under that sky. Now, there is a better head than the Li family to protect them, which is a blessing for the people of Zong Sui.
As he was distracted, his hands stopped moving. Feng Tianyu came around to his courtyard without knowing when. Seeing him holding the axe in a daze, he frowned and became unhappy again: "You are still distracted while chopping wood, Li Kun, you are really getting less and less motivated."
He really didn't know what chopping wood had to do with making progress, but he still smiled and immediately started chopping wood again. He had only chopped a few times when he heard Feng Tianyu say quietly: "I heard that Jiancheng is gone and Tongcheng was blown up. But Li Kun, I have to make it clear to you, it wasn't Dashun who did it, but Duanmu Anguo. The people of Jiancheng were poisoned by Duanmu Anguo and were living a life worse than death. The mines buried outside Tongcheng were also done by Duanmu Anguo, so if you want to hate, don't hate us Dashun, you should hate Duanmu Anguo."
Li Kun was stunned. So fast? Dashun actually took three cities so quickly. Zong Sui always boasted that it was a great country. Even if it was not as big as Dashun, it was at least much stronger than the other three countries. But what could it do? It was still vulnerable in front of Dashun.
"Da Shun is the ruler of Zong Sui. Why should I hate him?" He waved his hand. "Miss Feng, you are overthinking."
"Oh." Feng Tianyu touched his nose, it's good that he doesn't hate him. He wanted to leave, but when he turned around, he saw the robe Li Kun was wearing. He couldn't help but frowned again and said, "Your clothes are torn, and you don't know how to ask the servants to mend them, or just change them into good ones. You are still a prince! You don't take yourself seriously enough."
Li Kun laughed, "Didn't you tell me not to keep my past identity in mind? What's the use of being a prince? My father died at the hands of Li Jian. I, as his son, have no ability to avenge him, so I have no right to call myself his son." Bitterness appeared on his face, "Miss Feng, go back! It's still cold, and you're wearing too little."
Feng Tianyu looked at himself and found that he was indeed wearing too little and felt cold. He did not stay any longer, but said to Li Kun before leaving: "Don't chop, the New Year is not over until the first month of the year is over. I can't let you do hard labor during the New Year. Take a rest!"
But Li Kun didn't want to rest. Once he rested, he would always have random thoughts, which only added to his troubles. It would be better to chop more firewood, even if it paid for his meals at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest. Just when everyone in the world was looking for Duanmu Anguo, and just when Emperor Li Jian of Zong Sui was gritting his teeth and wanted to tear Duanmu Anguo to pieces, no one could have imagined that Duanmu Anguo actually escaped into the Zong Sui palace and was now with Li Jian's favorite Concubine Fang.
Fang Jinse looked at Duanmu Anguo, who was still full of murderous intent despite having one arm broken, and felt mixed emotions in her heart. She had no feelings for this so-called father, and the reason she followed his orders and entered the palace of Zong Sui was just to save the lives of her adoptive parents. Even her maid Yuexin was restrained by the same threat.
This was Duanmu Anguo's usual method. Almost all of his daughters who were scattered among the people were under the same threat. At this moment, Fang Jinse looked at him, wondering in her mind whether Duanmu Anguo, who had fallen to this point, still had the ability to take action against his adoptive parents.
However, even though she had such doubts, she still didn't dare to take the risk. What if it happened? She couldn't joke about the lives of her loved ones.
Duanmu Anguo looked at Fang Jinse and Yue Xin, and laughed coldly, "Don't try to play any crooked tricks. Even if a tiger is bullied by a dog in plain land, there is still a saying that you should not forget, that is, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although I have fallen to this point, it is as easy to crush you to death as it is to crush an ant. If you don't believe me, just try it. As long as I die, your family, all of your family members, will leave the world in the most painful way. This is the great gift I prepared for you."
Yue Xin took two deep breaths, and it was difficult to calm down. In the end, Fang Jinse was calmer. She said to Duanmu Anguo, "Father, what are you talking about? We are your daughters, and we don't have any other family members. Daughters in the world are of the same mind as their fathers. Don't worry, since you are already here, just stay here. I will do everything I can to protect you and will never let you get hurt again."
Duanmu Anguo was very satisfied with Fang Jinse's performance. He nodded and said, "Whether you are sincere or not, as long as you help me get through this difficult time, from now on, I will set you free and also set your family free." After that, he looked at Yuexin again and said somewhat unwillingly, "And you, just learn from your sister when you serve her. This time, I will accept your kindness. As long as you keep me safe, your adoptive parents will be free."
Yue Xin glanced at Fang Jinse, and seeing Fang Jinse kneeling down in front of Duanmu Anguo, she knelt down as well, and then heard Fang Jinse say, "Thank you, father, but I don't need any freedom. I just hope that you can be safe. The grace of raising a child is not as great as the grace of giving birth to him. In my heart, you are my only relative."
Duanmu Anguo nodded with satisfaction, and then let Fang Jinse hide him in a secret room in the palace. It was not until the door of the secret room was closed and Fang Jinse and Yuexin walked out of the room that Yuexin whispered, "Miss, are you speaking the truth? You don't care about the safety of your adoptive parents, and you only recognize him as your father?"
