Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

"So, you no longer have any trump cards or escape routes."

As he spoke, Mu Yuanzhi had already arrived beside the emperor.

It was at this moment that the emperor suddenly revealed a look of horror, "You...how did you know about the token!"

Mu Yuanzhi smiled, "Father, have you forgotten? Every time you got drunk and reminisced about the late queen this year, I was there. One time when you were deeply drunk, you brought up this matter."

"It's all thanks to me pretending to be obedient, so you never guard against me and didn't even know I switched your token."

Originally, the emperor felt that Mu Qinghan was not capable enough and was afraid that he would not be able to manage these 300,000 people after his death, so he set a strict rule when training these cavalrymen: they only had to obey orders and not look at people.

As long as Mu Qinghan has the token in his hand, he is not afraid that these people will not obey his orders.

But after so long, Mu Qinghan died early, but he was badly cheated because of his original intention.

The emperor's face turned the color of liver when he heard Mu Yuanzhi say in a light voice, "I have already mobilized all those cavalrymen from the palace and put the entire city under martial law. I know Third Brother's methods and abilities. We must not let him get away this time."

"That's your brother, you just want him dead!"

"If he doesn't die, I will be the one to die."

Mu Yuanzhi's eyes grew colder. "Born in the royal family, there's no such thing as brotherly love. Only that idiot Fifth Brother can live so heartlessly."

The emperor's breathing became rapid, and he stared at Mu Yuanzhi as if his eyes were about to pop out.

Mu Yuanzhi smiled happily when he saw his expression. "Don't glare at me, father. Tell me where the imperial seal is and stamp it on the imperial edict as soon as possible."

"Don't even think about it! I will never pass the throne to you."

The emperor was so angry that he started coughing violently and couldn't stop, as if he was going to cough out his lungs.

Mu Yuanzhi didn't care at all. There was a hint of satisfaction on his face as if he had gotten revenge.

"So, Father is the most naive. Is it still up to you whether to pass the throne to me or not?"

He waved his hand, and the soldiers in the room immediately began to search everywhere.

"Presumptuous! Presumptuous!"

The emperor was so angry that he accidentally fell off the bed in excitement.

He fell to the ground in pain, gasping for breath. His heavy breathing sounded like a rag stuck in his throat, and it sounded extremely labored.

Looking at the embarrassed emperor, Mu Yuanzhi suddenly felt relieved about the past that he didn't want to face or talk about.

The mountains that he once thought were insurmountable have now been trampled under his feet. He has become strong enough to face all his own shortcomings.

He really doesn't need to look to others as salvation anymore; rights are his best salvation.

Mu Yuanzhi's eyes were full of ridicule. Times had changed and positions had been reversed. The person who had once determined his entire first half of life with just one sentence was now crawling on the ground, and he was the one whose fate could be determined by just one sentence.

"Asshole, you are committing treason and trying to force the emperor to abdicate. The people of this world will not tolerate you."

The emperor was furious and roared with all his might.

Mu Yuanzhi didn't even look at him, his eyes were firm as he said, "So what? I will kill anyone who doesn't tolerate me. If everyone in the world doesn't tolerate me, I will just kill everyone in the world."

The emperor tried again and again to sit up, but he couldn't do it because his limbs were too weak.

The soldiers searched the entire Funing Palace but could not find the imperial seal, and even the imperial study was not found.

Mu Yuanzhi couldn't help but turn his gaze back to the emperor, "Tell me, where did you hide the imperial seal?"

The emperor, holding up his weak body, laughed mockingly, "I won't give it to you. Without the imperial seal, even if you ascend the throne, you will be a traitor."

Mu Yuanzhi squatted down so that his eyes were level with his.

"Why? Am I not your son?"

He really didn't seem to understand, and his eyes were full of confusion.

"You took the initiative to carry my mother into the palace, didn't you? After that, it wasn't my mother who tied you to the bed, right? It wasn't my mother who forced you to have sex with her and then have me, right? Why did you treat us like this? Why can't you treat each of your sons fairly?"

This question has troubled Mu Yuanzhi for more than ten years since he could remember.

He doesn't even need absolute fairness, just a little attention so that he can live a smooth life.

But the emperor could never do it.

In this situation, it would be fine if they did something wrong, but they and their mother did nothing wrong.

Even the fifth prince, who was truly pure-hearted, was better protected because his mother was the Imperial Noble Consort.

The emperor still didn't pay much attention to Mu Qiancheng.

After asking this question, Mu Yuanzhi stared at the emperor without blinking, trying to hear an answer from him that he could accept.

Unexpectedly, the emperor looked even more bewildered than he was. "Fingers vary in length, and everyone has their own preferences. Isn't that normal? I care about the whole world, so how can I possibly consider everything? It's fine that you don't sympathize with my hard work, but you actually blame me for such a trivial matter."

“It’s not a small matter.”

Mu Yuanzhi clenched his fingers and repeated word by word, "This is not a trivial matter at all. In the eyes of a young and helpless child, this is a huge matter. He cannot understand the great righteousness you are talking about. He just wants his father to hold him in his arms and comfort him gently when he is scared. Why don't you understand?"

Anger gradually grew in Mu Yuanzhi's eyes. "Why don't you understand? As a member of the royal family, I should be treated with great respect. But because you don't care about me, I have been treated coldly and wronged. Why don't you feel guilty? Why can't you even recognize your own mistakes?"

He picked up the sword beside him and said, "See? Just like now, you forced me to pick up the sword and face you."

"Okay, are you going to kill my father?"

The emperor was so angry that he spat out blood.

Mu Yuanzhi's eyes turned a seductive red, and after hearing these words, he finally gave up.

Endless murderous intent rose in his eyes and he lowered his voice.

"Until now, you are still blaming me from a high position."

He gave a weak smile, "Yes, you guessed it right, I want to kill my father."

After saying the last word, his expression suddenly froze, and he raised his sword and plunged it deeply into the emperor's chest.

The emperor's body trembled, and the sharp, cold blade instantly pierced through his flesh.

His eyes widened, filled with disbelief and extreme pain.

With a swish, Mu Yuanzhi drew out his sword.

Blood suddenly gushed out from the wound like a fountain, staining the emperor's clothes red and gathering on the ground.

His lips trembled, "How dare you..."

Mu Yuanzhi's face was cold, "Why wouldn't I dare? Isn't it always the truth that an unkind father will lead to an unfilial son?"

There was no emotion on his face as he watched indifferently as the emperor gradually lost his life.
