The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven

Li Qingluo: "Maybe... maybe not?"

"It is undeniable that King Qin and Zuliya are the culprits for Zong Zheng Langri's current state."

"It's a pity that when Zulia fell into our hands in Daliang, she didn't dare reveal a single thing about what she had done to Mother, so she died so easily."

"Now that Prince Qin and Zong Zheng Wuxie are both dead, we can be considered to have avenged Mother, right?"

Duan Rongshi clenched his fists tightly.

A pair of hands, with blue veins bulging out.

Suddenly, perhaps he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, so he raised his hand and punched the stone wall hard.

His left hand instantly became bloody.

"But I still hate it!"

"I hate his selfish desires back then, which brought my mother to this state!"

"But if he hadn't saved my mother, she would have been tortured into a madman by Zulia and King Qin."

"He wouldn't have been tortured by the two poisons and turned into the unrecognizable, cruel and tyrannical ruler he is today."

This is a fact that Duan Rongshi cannot deny even after knowing the truth.

"Zuliya and King Qin, both of them should be ground to dust!"

Speaking of these two people, the hatred in Duan Rongshi's eyes instantly ignited and burned like a huge wave.

Staring at the endless darkness, it seemed as if it could devour the demon in one's heart.

At this moment, Li Qingluo reached out and gently held Duan Rongshi's bleeding left hand.

"Ashi, we can't change what happened in the past, let alone repeat it."

"I know you would rather not exist in this world, and you also want your mother to live a peaceful life."

"But if it weren't for you, the Li Qingluo in this world would have died long ago."

"Without you, there would be no star of my destiny. Who should I come back for?"

"My mother has let go of the past now. Isn't she happier in the underworld than in the human world?"

"No brother, no unfaithful man, no conspiracy against her by the whole palace."

"You want to drive more."

"Just follow your heart."

"Zong Zhenglangri has wronged Mother in countless ways, but there is one thing he does the same as you: He loves Mother very much."

"Among the men in this world, besides you, he is the only one who would sacrifice his life for my mother without hesitation."

"Back then, he used the poison and let his head bleed. Didn't he know what consequences this would have on the Great Chu in the future?"

"But he did it anyway."

"He was ruthless and ungrateful to the people of Great Chu, and he failed them. But he didn't fail his mother."

"The reason he didn't seek revenge for my mother was because of the influence of the poisonous insect."

"Of course, I'm not saying this to get you to let him go."

"If we release him back to Nan'an, who knows if he will get out of control and kill innocent people again."

"But I also don't want you to do anything that you'll regret."

Duan Rongshi listened to her quietly.

After he finished speaking, he held her tightly in his arms.

"Luo'er, I'm glad I have you."

"You help me solve my problems, and I have no regrets in my life."

Li Qingluo held his face in her hands with a look of heartache, then raised her head and said, "Ashi, there might be another way to deal with this matter."

Soon, Li Qingluo brought Duan Rongshi back to the tomb again.

Emperor Chu may have lost too much blood and had only eaten one meal in the past few days, so when they came back, he had already fainted and was completely unconscious.

Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi looked at each other and walked forward together.

When the Emperor of Chu woke up again, everything around him was so quiet and peaceful as if he was still in a dream.

Rustic bed curtains.

Simple and plain interior decoration.

A room that is only slightly better than the cold palace.

A bird swooped in from the window.

The constant chirping disturbed the tranquility, but surprisingly, it did not make the Emperor of Chu feel annoyed.

After listening for a long time, the King of Chu finally spoke.

"Someone is coming..."

"water……"

Someone pushed the door open and came in.

Soon, the cup of water was handed to his mouth.

The Emperor of Chu quickly raised his head and moved closer to the water cup.

However, the cup was too small and he drank it all in one gulp.

His throat was still dry and aching, so he couldn't help but say angrily, "You bastard—can't you bring a bigger bowl?"

His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he turned and glared at the person who fed him water.

But after seeing clearly who was in front of him, the murderous intent and anger in his body disappeared completely in an instant!

"Rong Shi?"

The Chu Emperor's eyes were filled with joy.

His face seemed to brighten up a lot.

Where is the look of the past, where he would kill people at any time, get angry at any time, and have eyes as red as a ghost?

At this moment, he looked just like an ordinary middle-aged man.

Duan Rongshi did not respond.

He just turned around silently and actually went to get a big bowl.

The Emperor of Chu was very excited.

After Duan Rongshi personally fed him two more bowls of water, he dared to ask, "Am I dreaming?"

"Even if you put arsenic in the tea, I would drink it without any regrets."

Duan Rongshi: "I want to kill you, why wait until now?"

"The Imperial Mausoleum is your burial place!"

Faced with the ridicule of his own nephew, the Emperor of Chu was not angry at all.

He replied with a smile: "Yes, Rong Shi is right."

"I wonder where we are..."

Duan Rongshi's attitude was very cold: "Zhuangzi, come on."

The Emperor of Chu's eyes lit up even more. "I've heard that your wife, Nangong Qingluo, is a very capable businesswoman. It's been less than a year since you arrived in Great Chu, and she's already made several shops flourish. Now she's even bought a farm."

"Now, I am finally in your home?"

Duan Rongshi did not respond to his deliberately flattering topic.

He simply asked with a straight face, "Have you sought out a Miao witch to examine the poison in your body over the years?"

The King of Chu looked embarrassed. "Rong Shi, my uncle is afraid of ropes after being bitten once. Forget asking a witch to treat my illness. Even if you ask me to destroy the entire Miao region, I don't want to get involved."

"Even though I hate it to death, the poison controls me and makes me bully the weak and fear the strong. Every time I have to make a critical decision, an uncontrollable fear will surge in my heart, and I will eventually be unable to make a decision."

"So, after the Saint left, I never saw any other witch again."

"Is my uncle useless?"

Duan Rongshi really wanted to say "yes".

But when I think about the fact that he became like this, it was because of the backlash after swallowing his mother's poisonous insect.

So, I couldn't say this word for a long time.

After a long while, he spoke again in a cold voice, "While you were unconscious, I had the Miao witch, Sect Leader Jinhua, personally take your pulse and examine the poison in your body."

"What you said is indeed true."

"Your poison has long since penetrated deep into your bones and blood. For years, two of these insects have been wreaking havoc within your body, and now one has entered your heart."

"The other one is entrenched in your skull."

"That's why you have frequent headaches, are manic and irritable, and like to kill people."

"As for why both King Qin and Zulia died, but you didn't get implicated and die, Jinhuan theorized that the so-called mother Gu in their hands might have been a lie from the beginning."

Zong Zhenglangri: "What did you say?"

"They deceived me?"

Duan Rongshi: "For someone as vicious as them who always leaves a way out for themselves, this is indeed possible."

"They won't risk taking the mother poison themselves."

"But as long as you lie and claim that the mother Gu is in them, you won't dare to take their lives easily, and you might even be controlled by them."

"Haven't you not touched even a hair of the King of Qin in all these years?"

Zong Zheng Langri's face turned pale and blue, looking very ugly.

"Yes... yes. It was because my uncle was useless that he fell into the trap of the treacherous people and was fooled by their schemes. Over the years... I have let down the country and its people."

Duan Rongshi frowned in disgust: "The Great Chu is indeed devastated because of you."

"Now, anyone who sends troops to the Western Regions and Daliang can easily seize your kingdom, swallow up your mountains and rivers, and suppress your throne."

"No one has made any rash moves yet. They are just watching each other."

"If anyone starts a war, the entire Chu State will be devastated and destroyed because of your cowardice and incompetence."

"You have failed to protect your kingdom, and instead you have been killing innocent people day in and day out, indulging in bloodlust and drinking for pleasure."

"You are indeed the eternal sinner of the Great Chu."

Zong Zheng Langri lowered his head as he listened.

If it were based on his previous temper, he would have been furious by now. Even if he couldn't kill Duan Rongshi, he would never let him off easily.

At least show your anger and majesty violently.

But now, he was being scolded with his head down like a quail.

The strange thing is that ever since Duan Rongshi revealed his true face and identity, he couldn't feel any anger towards his nephew at all.

Because when he saw this face, he felt as if he really saw the moon!

How could he get angry at Yue'er's face?

He didn't even dare to show the slightest bit of anger.

Because he doesn't deserve it.

Unwilling.

I don't want to either.

Over the past decade, my heart has never been so peaceful and calm.

Seeing him like this, Li Qingluo, who was waiting outside the door and eavesdropping, was stunned.

Is this still the bloodthirsty Emperor of Chu?

Is this still the tyrant that everyone wants to kill on sight?

Seeing him like this, Duan Rongshi was filled with anger: "Have you ever thought about how to save your kingdom?"

"Even if I don't kill you now, I hope you can turn over a new leaf and reform yourself!"

"I will have Sect Leader Jinhua do his best to suppress the poison for you, and I will also send people to find a way to break the poison in your body."

"But I hope that from now on you can pull yourself together and stop being a tyrant controlled by two worms!"

"If you can't do it, or if you kill people at will again, I will kill you myself!"

"If you let your prince ascend the throne, perhaps he will consider how to save the people of Great Chu from the suffering of war and national destruction!"

After saying this, Duan Rongshi flicked his sleeves and strode out.

Zong Zheng Langri hurriedly called out to him, "Rong Shi!"

"Uncle knows he was wrong."

"Whatever you say is fine."

"Whatever you say, uncle will do it."

"Uncle changes it. Uncle changes everything."

"My uncle will do his utmost to make up for the mistakes he made in the past and will do his utmost to reform himself."

"Rong Shi, thank you... Thank you for being willing to show some mercy and give my uncle this chance."

Duan Rongshi walked out of the door without even pausing.

Then he slammed the door shut with a bang.
