Chapter 908 Find a Backer for Yourself
Nian'er looked at his father in silence.
This father feels so strange, as if he appeared in a dream.
His father had never looked at him with such gentle and kind eyes.
He always murmured his own name, as if looking through him at another person.
Every time I came to my senses and looked at him, my eyes would become cold and terrifying.
He doesn't like himself.
Everybody knows.
But now, he looked at me with tears in his eyes and gently opened his bloody hands: "Niannian, you are a good child. It's father..."
"It's your father's fault. I'm not worthy of being your father."
Nian Nian's tears fell. He walked forward and grabbed his father's trembling and cold hand, and pressed it against his soft cheek.
"Nian Nian doesn't blame my father. Please don't abandon me."
"Nian Nian is so scared."
Xuan Jichuan felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He held the child's hand tightly, pursed his lips, and blood dripped from the corners of his mouth.
"You...you did a great job. Nian Nian has always done a great job."
He was afraid that there were some things he would never have the chance to say again.
His child has been waiting for an affirmation.
Xuan Jichuan gently kissed him between the eyebrows. He was so ignorant that he sneered at the child who begged for his father's love.
Now he thought that it was simply because he could not accept the fact that his face resembled a lotus flower.
"Father will always love you, don't be afraid." He leaned on Nian Nian's thin little shoulders and closed his eyes in worry.
Countless stubbornness, countless unwillingness, all destroyed.
With a bang.
His dejected figure fell weakly to the ground, one hand still tightly grasping the withered lotus.
The blood dyed the lotus blood red, and the two became one, never to be separated.
Nian Nian knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Father, Queen Mother..."
"Father, don't abandon me, Mother... Mother, I'm so scared. Don't leave Nian Nian alone, don't you all want Nian Nian?" Nian Nian wanted to wake his father up, only then could he enjoy his father's love, which was so warm and precious.
But it was fleeting.
The whole audience was silent.
Even Xie Chengxi had never expected such an ending.
Civil and military officials of Dongling rushed over and saw the young crown prince kneeling helplessly in a pool of blood, tears streaming down their faces.
Everyone understands that this is actually the best ending.
Lu Yanshu watched from afar, his eyebrows and eyes cold: "They are all a bunch of selfish people."
"The crown prince is young, and the court is unstable. He has a child of a few years old left behind, and no relatives to help him. I'm afraid he will be eaten alive by court officials. It's hard for him to survive among jackals and tigers." The Dongling royal family fought until their relatives were cut off, and now there is no one available.
In such a huge court, there is only a single young man of just a few years old left.
Puppet emperor will be his final destination.
This is the cruelty of the court.
The officials of Dongling looked at each other and then frowned slightly. Then they shouted that His Majesty had passed away and the new emperor was enthroned.
He immediately shouted: "Please give an order from the new emperor." Give an order? What to do next?
He was just a few years old, still a young boy.
In front of him were the oppressive civil and military officials, and behind him were the Beizhao soldiers who were eyeing him covetously.
They were waiting, waiting for the new king's helpless cries.
Then it was natural for him to take over the state affairs of Dongling.
Nian Nian knelt in a pool of blood. Her mother had turned to ashes and her father had already died. There was no one behind him, no one to rely on.
He was like standing on the edge of a cliff, and if he wasn't careful he would be crushed to pieces.
There was even a hint of confusion on the little face.
There were even some soldiers who were new fathers who couldn't bear it and quietly looked away.
The soldiers of the three armies, everyone was looking at him.
Waiting for him to be helpless and in pain, he sought help from civil and military officials.
Some people even cursed in their hearts that the two old ministers killed by Xuan Jichuan last night were both Dong Lingchun ministers. With them around, they would definitely protect the new emperor's safety.
But his parents left him nothing.
Only countless messes were left behind.
Nian Nian sniffed and remembered what his mother had said.
"Do you know? Queen Mother herself is an inconspicuous lotus in the lotus pond of the God Realm."
"Everyone responded to the call, but I didn't want to. Of course, I'm said to be full of pride, but in fact... it's also because I'm stupid. It was the Sword Master who left me a good reputation, saying that I'm full of pride and don't want to respond to the call."
"All the fairies excluded me, but it was Chaoyang Sword Master who took pity on me and brought me to Wuwang Mountain."
"That group of arrogant fairies used to sneer at me. But later, when they saw me, they politely called me Sister Lotus and were extremely flattering."
“That’s how important thighs are.”
"When you have no ability, just cling to the strongest person and you will be able to survive. Face is nothing compared to life and death."
"Mother hopes you will never need it." His mother was sitting in front of the bed, the candle was flickering, and he couldn't see her face clearly.
But I vaguely felt that my mother was very regretful about what she said.
She wanted to go back to the past.
She clearly has the strongest backer, so she can live a good life without having to do anything. But she chose to follow her father to the lower world...
Nian Nian stood up, her small figure shivering in the cold wind.
Dong Ling cannot defeat Bei Zhao.
But my father had the lives of 100,000 people in his hands and was in control of the other side.
Nian Nian couldn't help but lower her head again, and even felt ashamed.
