Yan Mu stared blankly at the dagger on the ground. It did not penetrate his body, but he could already feel the pain of digging into his heart.

"When Yan's Mansion was raided, my mother pushed me to the executioner's knife first. Later I dreamed of that scene countless times, but I told myself that my mother let me go first because she was afraid that I would be left alone after she died. Lonely.”

"Oh, how ridiculous. It's like the saying, 'You don't have to say goodbye when you leave home. Come back to apologize when you get home.' I actually thought these were mother's words of concern."

Heshuo laughed loudly after hearing this, "My son is so pitiful!"

Yan Mu looked up, as if he didn't understand why He Shuo was laughing, because he was crying. After looking at her for a long time, he was finally disappointed and then smiled.

"My adoptive father saved me. I was grateful to him, trusted him, relied on him, respected him as a father, and was willing to go through fire and water for him. Until one time, I casually said: I also want to seize the throne. So that night , I was attacked by a sneak attack, hit with a hidden triangular weapon, and almost died."

Shangguan Xu sighed slightly: "Old Qi, it's a good thing that you are ambitious, but you are naturally rebellious. I'm afraid that if I help you up, the first person who will be unlucky will be my adoptive father."

"I don't care about this power!"

"But you have separated from us, so we can only abandon you."

Yan Mu nodded and smiled again.

He looked at Jin You again, she was the one who protected him when he grew up and was the person he trusted the most and was closest to.

"What about you? Is there anything I can't do to you?"

Jin You thought for a while and shook his head: "No."

"Then why?"

Jin You said with a smile: "There is no reason. If a chess piece is useful, keep it. If it is not useful, discard it."

Yan Mu looked at Jin You carefully, as if he could only see her face clearly now.

"It turns out she was right. You have changed. I was stupid enough to think that you would always be the kind and timid person who needs my protection."

He sighed and bent down to pick up the dagger from the ground.

"You all want me dead, don't you?"

Yan Mu looked at Heshuo, "If I die, you will be relieved."

Looking at Shangguan Xu again, "If I die, you will feel at ease."

Looking at Jin You again, "It doesn't matter to you if I die."

He put the tip of the knife against his heart with his backhand. The tears in his eyes stopped immediately, and his face slowly lost its vitality, like a tree slowly withering.

Seeing this, Liu Yunxiang rushed out in a panic, "Yan Mu, don't, don't hurt yourself!"

Yan Mu was startled for a moment, then turned his head bluntly to look at Liu Yunxiang, but the moment he saw her, the last tear fell from his eyes, and then there was only a deathly coldness left in his eyes.

"Liu Yunxiang, you have abandoned me too."

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I was wrong, and I will never do it again!"

"I was so confident that you loved me."

"I love you!"

"But it turns out it's fake!"

"No, no, let me put down the knife first and let me explain to you."

"I hate them when they hurt me. I can't hate you when you hurt me."

"Yan Mu..." Liu Yunxiang cried. Yan Mu had never looked at her with such eyes, without love or hatred, as if he had no feelings for her at all, "I was wrong, I was wrong, please be like this." !”

"Don't let me see you again!"

Through his tears, Liu Yunxiang saw Yan Mu's stern expression and threw the dagger away.

"Anyone who doesn't want to die, get out!"

Yan Mu gave a low drink, then turned around and went back to the house, slamming the door shut.

Jin You was a little worried, "Father, if he hadn't died, would he have spared us lightly?"

Shangguan Xu and Heshuo looked at each other, and then said with a deep breath: "Don't worry, the emperor is more worried than us and will not let him live another day."

Hearing this, Jin You felt a little relieved.

She looked at Liu Yunxiang again, narrowed her eyes, and said, "What about this Liu family?"

Shangguan Xu sneered coldly: "She has done us a big favor. In order to save her, Lao Qi broke into the Shannian camp and exposed the conspiracy between King Suping and the emperor. After that, public resentment must have boiled, and the emperor wanted to protect his reputation. , will definitely put all the blame on King Suping. King Suping has lost power, and the emperor will only blame Lao Qi for bad things, and will not doubt us. "

"This woman cannot be kept, she must be killed, then I can rest assured." Jin You said.

"Then..."

Just as Shangguan Xu opened his mouth, a spy from Dongchang came to report, "Superintendent, the Night Wolf Army is coming this way."

"It seems that the emperor is going to take action!" Shangguan Xu said.

Heshuo laughed: "My father killed his own son, haha, Yan Chong, you saw it, the people who harmed you will not end well!"

When the wolf army moves out that night, no one will be left alive. At that moment, Shangguan and Xu were sure that Yan Mu would die, so they left under the cover of night.

Liu Yunxiang was stunned for a moment, then hurried to the door of the main room. The door was locked from the inside. She slapped it vigorously: "Yan Mu! Yan Mu! Come out quickly! The Night Wolf Army is coming!"

She shouted for a long time, but the people inside never responded.

At this time, Mu Jin came over with Xing Yi and Yan'er, "Madam, take the two children and leave!"

"No, there is Yan Mu!"

"Madam, do you want your two children to die with you?"

Liu Yunxiang looked at the two children, perhaps infected by the atmosphere, and they grabbed her clothes in fear.

"Mom, my brother and I are so scared."

Liu Yunxiang took the hands of the two children and looked at the closed door. After all, he couldn't let go of the two children, so he pulled them and ran out. When I ran to the door of the courtyard, I thought of Lu Changan again. I quickly entered the darkroom from the wing and took Lu Changan out.

Sure enough, he was injured, in the abdomen, still bleeding, and already in a daze.

Liu Yunxiang helped Lu Changan and took the two children out of the back door. At night, Liu Yunxiang took Lu Changan and the others to Lingyun Grain Store, where he met Zijin and the others.

After handing Lu Changan and the two children over to them, Liu Yunxiang turned around and ran back.

She was going to save Yan Mu!

Even if it meant death, she would stay with him!

This time, she will never abandon him!

Ran ran to the street and saw that the Seventh Prince's Mansion in the distance was already in flames. Her body swayed, and she staggered forward. Her mind seemed to have been sucked out, and only her body was left moving.

When he ran to the door of the Seventh Prince's Mansion, he saw the Night Wolf Army wearing black armor surrounding it layer by layer, and it was already a sea of ​​fire inside.

"Yan Mu...no..."

She wanted to go over, but was held back by Zi Jin who was following behind.

"He's still in there, I'm going to save him!"

"Girl, you can't save him!"

"I can't leave him!"

"You just wanted to die in the past. Think about the young master. Now that the Seventh Prince is dead, he will be even more dangerous."

Liu Yunxiang looked at the fire, his body softened, and he knelt on the ground.

This fire will not burn Yan Mu to death, but what if he has no hope in life and just wants to die?

Liu Yunxiang didn't dare to think about it, but there was a voice in her heart that hurt her again and again: You, you are the one who made him so desperate! You killed him!
