Chapter 1076 Fate or Not: Destiny and Lifespan
"what!
Ah!
......"
One piercing scream after another seemed to pierce the roof tiles of the Vice Minister's residence and then the eardrums of everyone there. Those who were unconscious or asleep opened their eyes one after another...
They opened their blurry eyes and stared blankly at everything before them...
When they finally saw everything clearly... uh... no, when they realized there was nothing left in front of them...
Then...then even more shrill screams came from the Vice Minister's residence!
"Ah! Ah!... The screams of the woman in the backyard..."
"Ah! Ah!... The screams of the man in the front yard..."
Then, someone screamed in terror, "Father... what's wrong?"
"Mother...where are my things from my room?"
"Master... I've lost all my jewelry and personal savings!"
"Butler...butler...something has happened at the manor!"
The mansion has been completely robbed!
"Help! Someone come quick!"
……
Jiang Ciche's residence as the Second Assistant Minister can be summed up in one word—chaos!
Let it be chaotic... let it be chaotic!
The carriages that left the city were running quite happily!
The moment Leng Rongyue boarded the carriage in front of the Duke of Anguo's mansion, Empress Luan Xiying pulled her to sit beside her.
Before Leng Rongyue could even perform her formal greeting, Emperor Hongde smiled and excused her from the formalities.
"Alright, alright, we're all family here, no need for all that, Rongyue, please have a seat!"
"Your Majesty is right. We're all family, so let's skip the formalities!"
Come and sit next to your mother!
Empress Luan Xiying reached out and took Leng Rongyue's hand, pulling her to sit down beside her.
The carriage started.
Emperor Hongde, Empress Luan Xiying, Leng Rongyue, and Xiao Jingyu chatted all the way as their carriage left the capital.
"The moon has had a hard night!"
Emperor Hongde looked at Leng Rongyue and said.
"Your Majesty is too kind. This is what I should do!"
Leng Rongyue said respectfully.
Emperor Hongde smiled and waved his hand, "Yue'er, there's no need for such modesty!"
What you have done is of great significance to my Jingyue Dynasty!
What you do is something that others cannot do.
I must thank you!
"Your Majesty is too kind to this humble woman!"
Leng Rongyue stood up to pay her respects, but was stopped by Empress Luan Xiying.
"I've already said we're family, no need for formalities!"
"Yes, Yue'er, just listen to your mother!"
"Yes, Rongyue obeys!"
“Moon, on the way here, I heard a brief account from Yu’er of your experiences that night…”
Leaving aside those beasts from the Eastern Wei Kingdom, let's just talk about my good nephew, Prince Yi...
well! "
Emperor Hongde sighed, "It's all my fault. I almost caused a great disaster for the entire Jingyue Dynasty just to repay the late Crown Prince's personal kindness to me!"
"It was I who raised a tiger to cause trouble; I was wrong!"
Based on Leng Rongyue's understanding of ancient history, it was extremely rare for an ancient monarch to admit his mistakes, especially in front of a junior.
It's rare to find an emperor who can admit his mistakes!
"Your Majesty, it is not wrong to be grateful and repay kindness!"
The mistake was that Prince Yi harbored ambitions and malicious intentions!
As a member of the Jingyue royal family, Prince Yi enjoys the honors and privileges of the Jingyue royal family. Instead of repaying the kindness and protecting Jingyue, he plots rebellion for his own selfish desires, colluding with foreign enemies and betraying the Jingyue Kingdom!
Such ungrateful people, who betray their country on a grand scale and forget the kindness of those who raised them, are a scourge to Jingyue Kingdom if left alive!
Even if the Emperor spares his life out of consideration for the late Crown Prince, he cannot be allowed to continue committing evil deeds!
"Yue'er is right!
"I will never again sacrifice the greater good of the nation for personal favors!"
Emperor Hongde has finally learned his lesson!
He treated his nephew as his own son and treated his elder brother's son with the same gratitude he would show to a grateful person.
But the result?
His own nephew only regarded him, his uncle, as the enemy who had stolen his throne;
He saw it as an obstacle to his ascension to the throne of Jingyue!
And what about his own elder brother...?
On his deathbed, he held his own hand, earnestly entrusting his children to his care;
But secretly, he was leaving behind a force for his own son to seize power in the future!
This left a seed of disaster for the Jingyue Kingdom.
Whenever he thought of these things, Emperor Hongde would feel a chill and a sharp pain in his heart!
Leng Rongyue could clearly sense Emperor Hongde's low spirits.
If we regard Emperor Hongde as an elder, then it is only right for us, as the younger generation, to offer him comfort!
However, as an emperor, Emperor Hongde had to consider the country, the court, and all the people. He could have personal emotions, but in the end, he had to prioritize the country and the world!
"Your Majesty need not be saddened or distressed by someone like Prince Yi!"
If Prince Yi is merely unruly and willful, disobedient and angering Your Majesty, his uncle, then it is still a family matter.
But he was plotting rebellion, seizing the throne, instigating foreign enemies, and betraying Jingyue—he was committing a heinous crime!
He's no longer just a rebellious son at home, but a traitor to the Jingyue Kingdom!
He is a traitor to the country, and everyone has the right to kill him!
At this point, Your Majesty still wishes to spare his life; that is your mercy!
However, whether Prince Yi can survive now... depends on fate, on his destiny!
