Chapter 321 Sorry, I can’t do things like getting married and having children
Wei Ying hugged the sword tightly.
Marry...
Prestigious families like the Zhenbei Palace place the utmost importance on the inheritance of offspring.
She has long lost her fertility, so why should she implicate Xie Zan?
Even if Xie Zan doesn't mind now, he may not be able to do so when he is forty or fifty years old. What's more, he still has a grandmother and elders who will definitely not let him do whatever he wants.
Why should she make herself unhappy?
The girl's high ponytail was blown by the hot wind.
She suddenly smiled, as bright and proud as the sun, "Sorry, I can't do things like getting married and having children. I, Wei Gaoyang, want to be the empress!"
Xie Zan stared at her.
The girl avoided his gaze, the corners of her lips still raised brightly, only her long and fine eyelashes quietly cast a shadow in her pupils.
The blood dyed the white marble square red.
Xie Xuchi's double swords made his palms numb.
He turned around and glared at Gong Lou in annoyance.
He was fighting here and risking his life, but high up in the palace, his military advisor was busy having a love affair with the cold and beautiful princess of the previous dynasty!
How infuriating!
The two swords blocked the halberd, and sparks flew everywhere.
Xie Xuchi's blade cut a gap.
We can't delay any longer.
He must force the emperor to abdicate before his father's reinforcements arrive.
He suddenly exerted force to repel the soldiers around him, trying to fight his way to the Golden Palace.
While they were fighting bloody battle, they saw Xie Zhe actually walking out of the Golden Palace.
Behind him were civil and military officials and concubines, and he personally held Madam Wei's hand and stood in the middle of the crowd so casually.
Twenty feet away.
Xie Xuchi couldn't help but think that as long as he jumped over this distance, he could keep his mother and Ningning by his side, protect them well from now on, and prevent them from being tortured by their father again.
The blade grazed the guard's neck, leaving a clear line of blood.
When the fight was in full swing, there was a sound of breaking wind from behind.
Xie Xuchi jumped up from his horse, turned around, and stabbed the assassin in the face with his long knife.
The warm blood dyed most of the young man's face bright red.
The horse neighed and caught Xie Xuchi steadily.
Xie Xuchi opened his eyes which were covered with blood.
Fifteen feet.
He was only fifteen feet away from his mother.
The sound of fighting was deafening.
There was a buzzing sound of white noise in Xie Xuchi's ears.
He suddenly thought that after he ascended the throne, he must respect his mother as the Empress Dowager, visit her every morning and evening, have meals with his mother and Ningning, and spend the four seasons of the year in peace.
As for Xie Zhe, Xie Zhe is his father after all, and he will spare his life and imprison him in the deep palace.
And...Ayan.
He would apologize to Ayan sincerely, he would govern the world diligently, let Ayan know that he was trying to be a wise ruler, and he would make Ayan no longer hate him so much.
As for inheritance, if Ningning gives birth to a child, he will choose that child as the heir.
He must not be as cruel and brutal as his father, and he will love the child well.
Xie Xuchi thought that for the rest of his life, he finally had loved ones to protect.
He wants to be a good person!
Ten feet.
Xie Xuchi's two swords were swung and became afterimages.
There was a blinding red pool of blood before his eyes. He tried his best to chop down the two guards. He was so close to his mother, but for some reason, more and more troops were blocking his way, like a surging tide, ready to crush him to death under the huge waves!
Why……
Why are there so many people?
Eight feet.
Xie Xuchi raised his head with difficulty in the gap and clearly caught the pity in Xie Zhe's eyes.
He looked back subconsciously.
His troops were defeated at some point, but Xie Zhe's army seemed to be endless. At some point, even the surrounding palace buildings were occupied by the enemy.
"A-Zan?"
He murmured.
There was no trace of Xie Zan and Wei Ying where they were originally. Instead, there was a large black flag with the word "Zhou" embroidered on it.
Just as he was lost in thought, Wei Si's shrill voice suddenly rang out, "Prince!"
When Xie Xuchi came to his senses, the sound of breaking wind was already right in front of him!
He only had time to turn his head slightly.
The sharp sword just grazed his cheek, leaving a glaring blood mark.
"Prince!"
Concubine Zhang was frightened and suddenly let out a terrifying scream. She knelt on the ground with her mouth covered, staring at Xie Xuchi.
Swords clashed.
Only six of Xie Zhe's twenty-four Lin Guards were dispatched, but they were as ferocious as sheep-slaughtering dogs. In just a moment, they killed all of Xie Xuchi's confidants!
Xie Xuchi was breathing rapidly, but still struggling to move forward.
Five meters.
He was only five feet away from Wei Si!
The young man burst out with unprecedented strength, and the surging internal force was infused into the blade. He roared and killed two of the Lin Guards, but his own shoulder was also hit hard!
The armor shattered.
Seeing the three Lin guards falling from the sky, Xie Xuchi jumped off his horse nimbly.
The spear knocked over the horse.
Xie Xuchi was forced to fight with the Lin guards, but Xie Zhe's guards were everywhere, and the three Lin guards were elusive. In just a few breaths, his back and thigh were injured again.
He fell to his knees, holding a knife tightly in his hand.
Lin Wei had a blank expression on his face and was about to deliver a fatal blow to him, but Xie Xuchi suddenly raised his long sword and blocked the opponent's attack.
Visible cracks appeared on the blade.
In an instant, the blade shattered.
Xie Xuchi held the broken knife handle, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground in a mess.
He looked like he was fished out of a pool of blood. His silver helmet was lost at some point. His long hair was blown by the wind, and some strands of hair were stuck to his cheeks by the blood.
He slowly raised his head and looked up at the white marble steps with red eyes.
Two meters.
He was only two meters away from his mother.
With hands stained with blood, he crawled across the ground bit by bit.
There was a long trail of blood behind him, but he kept looking up at Wei Si persistently.
The guards stopped attacking at some point, retreated to the sides with their swords in hand, and looked at him in silence.
"Mother……"
Xie Xuchi's voice was trembling and broken, almost inaudible.
Concubine Zhang covered her mouth with her hands, tears streaming down her face.
She thought Xie Xuchi was calling her, so she grabbed Xie Zhe's robe and cried, "This is my only child. The Crown Prince has always been filial. He must have been instigated by a traitor to commit treason! Your Majesty, please forgive him this time for his youth!"
As he was speaking, Wen Xingluo rushed out hurriedly from the corner of the palace eaves not far away.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned the corner, he ran into Xie Zhe and others!
She had just escaped from the prison during the chaos, but unexpectedly, in her panic, she ran directly in front of Xie Zhe!
Wen Xingluo suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Wen Yueyin followed closely behind her, not noticing that she suddenly stopped, and due to inertia, she bumped into her back!
Behind Wen Yueyin were the three brothers of the Wen family, and Wen Rulei followed at the end with a stick in his hand. He also failed to stop and bumped into the person in front of him!
The huge impact force forced Wen Xingluo, who was in the front, to rush out.
The noise attracted the attention of Xie Zhe and others.
When everyone looked over, they saw the five brothers and sisters of the Wen family stumble one after another. The spirit tablet that Wen Rufeng was holding in his arms flew to the feet of Xie Zhe and broke into three pieces!
The three Wen brothers and Wen Yueyin couldn't help but burst into heartbreaking cries, "Dad!!"
