Concubine Wan Gui did not expect that he would be so cruel to her.
Suddenly my heart trembled, and I didn't dare to step forward again.
Chu Mu pulled out the dagger with all his strength, put his hand on the ground, and slowly stood up straight.
Then he turned around and walked towards the door of the room.
He still held the dagger in his hand, and there was blood on it. Every time he took a step, a drop of blood would drip from the dagger.
There was also blood pouring from the injury on his leg, seeping directly into the heel, leaving incomplete bloody footprints along the route he took.
Just as he was about to reach the door, Concubine Wan Gui suddenly ran towards him as if she was risking her life.
She finally had this opportunity, and she knew that if she missed this opportunity, she would never have another chance.
No matter what, she must keep him under her body, even if it means death in the end, she is willing to do so.
It's just that she overestimated Chu Mu's endurance.
Just when she was about to approach Chu Mu, Chu Mu raised his hand and flicked it back, and the bloody dagger directly cut through Concubine Wan Gui's throat.
Being merciful once does not mean that he will always be merciful.
What about women? He kills without fail!
Concubine Wan Gui's eyes widened, and her hands instinctively covered her bleeding throat.
She didn't even call out. With a bang, she fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then lost her voice.
Chu Mu glanced at the dagger in his hand. It was also stained with Concubine Wan Gui's blood. He threw it to the ground with a look of disgust on his face.
He wiped the blood from his hands on his clothes before continuing to stagger towards the door.
It was only when he opened the door that he found it was locked.
Princess Jingning, who was standing guard outside, seemed to have heard the noise and stood at the door pacing anxiously.
She also felt it when she was at Chumu Lamen.
Chu Mu pulled it several times, but couldn't open it, so he opened his mouth and said outside: "Jing Ning, I know that you are outside, and I order you to open the door immediately."
Jingning didn't know what was going on inside. Listening to Chu Mu's voice, she felt that he seemed to be very awake at the moment, and she became a little scared.
But she didn't say anything, thinking that maybe Chu Mu wouldn't know she was outside.
But the next second, Chu Mu's voice came again, and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Concubine Wan Gui has been killed by this king. If you don't want to die, just open the door for me."
Chu Mu's voice was as cold as a messenger from hell, and Jingning couldn't help but tremble all over.
She was also aware of Chu Mu's reputation outside.
But Chu Mu was always gentle and polite in front of her. Although he didn't talk much, he never had a bad temper towards her.
But now Chu Mu is so strange that no one can recognize him, especially since he said that he had killed Concubine Wan Gui.
She was even more afraid.
If Concubine Wan Gui dies, then their plan has failed. If she still doesn't repent, I'm afraid that the only thing waiting for her is death.
If she was bitten to death because Concubine Wan Gui threatened her and forced her, then her brother Mu would still be her brother Mu.
Thinking of this, she didn't dare to hesitate any more, and quickly opened the lock with trembling hands.
As soon as the door opened, she came into contact with Chu Mu's sinister and cold eyes, and she subconsciously took two steps back.
Then with a trembling voice, he cried and said: "Brother Mu, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. It was Concubine Wan Guifei who threatened me. She forced me. I...I had no choice but to cooperate with her. Brother Mu, don't blame me, okay?" ?”
Chu Mu looked at her and stepped out of the threshold.
"Jingning, your blessings are as good as today. I will send someone to send you back to Yunyang. You will never even think about setting foot in Shangjing again in this life."
When Jingning heard this, his feet gave way and he fell directly to the ground.
She couldn't go back to that small place in Yunyang.
After seeing a prosperous and luxurious place like Shangjing, and a small place like Yunyang, where could she stay?
Back then, the Empress Dowager wanted to choose a baby from her mother's clan to keep by her side. However, she went through many rounds of screening and defeated all her brothers and sisters in the clan to get this opportunity.
She was only seven years old at the time, but she was very pretty at that time. She was also proficient in playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she also had a sweet mouth.
When the Queen Mother saw her, she immediately fell in love with her.
Everyone in Yunyang knew that she, Jingning, was destined to be wealthy and should be raised in a wealthy home.
If she is asked to go back now, how can she have the face to see anyone?
And those people, including her brothers and sisters from the clan, were afraid that all of them would come to add insult to injury and ridicule her.
She couldn't go back, she definitely couldn't go back.
She didn't dare to hesitate anymore, crawled to Chu Mu's feet and hugged his feet, "Brother Mu, please forgive Ning'er this time. Ning'er knows that she was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again."
"I will definitely be safe and sound in the future. I don't dare to covet brother Mu anymore. I am right next to my aunt and I will serve her well. Just forgive me for once and don't send me back to Yunyang, okay?"
"Let go!" Chu Mu's voice was still without warmth, cold to the bone.
But Jingning still hugged her tightly, "Brother Mu, please, Ning'er knows that she was wrong, don't send Ning'er back to Yunyang."
Chu Mu was able to wake up by stabbing himself. As the pain of the wound numbed him, the restlessness began to stir again.
Chu Mu knew that he could not linger here any longer.
"Jing Ning, I order you to let go immediately, otherwise, you will end up like Concubine Wan Gui."
Jingning was afraid of death, so she reluctantly let go of her hand.
Chu Mu broke away from her restraints and stumbled down the steps quickly. When he reached the door of Shou'an Palace next door, he told the guards at the door several times to call someone to deal with Concubine Wan Gui and Jingning.
But just as Chu Mu was about to leave, one of the guards asked worriedly: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
In fact, they discovered something was wrong with Chu Mu since he appeared.
They are people from Chu Mu, and they stayed here specifically to protect the Empress Dowager.
"The king is fine."
Chu Mu waved his hand and prepared to leave.
The guard said again: "Just now, Lord Dongzhan came to see His Highness, bringing a boy with him, but he didn't find you. He said he had left the palace first."
"Yes, I understand." Chu Mu nodded and left quickly.
After that, the carriage that Ruan Tang and the others were leaving was stopped here.
Ruan Tang looked at Chu Mu, whose face was flushed, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, are you feeling uncomfortable now?"
"..."
Chu Mu said nothing, but stared closely at Ruan Tang's face.
Ruan Tang was reminded of the strange feeling when he held her wrist at the banquet just now.
I suddenly felt ashamed and angry.
She glared at him, "Here, you... don't even think about it..."
Although she knew that she had been drugged and the heat was unbearable, she couldn't lose her moral integrity and just follow him here...
But Chu Mu's eyes were always fixed on her, making her very uncomfortable.
"You've endured it for so long anyway, and you don't care if you endure it for a little longer. When you get back to the other hospital and put medicine on your injury, I'll ask Ling Qing to prescribe an antidote for you. I'll make sure that the medicine... softens your roots."
