King's favor is hard to do

Li Guangning stood there in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.The desperate roar just now was still echoing in the palace, lingering endlessly.

However, the lingering sound will eventually disappear for a moment.Suddenly, the palace fell silent.

It was so quiet that even Li Guangning's heartbeat could be heard clearly.One sound, like a drum beating, hit his chest hard.

"Du Qing..."

Li Guangning's voice trembled.His heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and his breathing was getting faster and faster.Even the eyes were blurry and clear for a while - I don't know if it was because of the alcohol, or because of the tears that suddenly welled up in the eyes.But he still tried his best to keep his eyes wide open, looking greedily at the person opposite.

The man on the other side came over without making a sound.There was a strong wind tonight, and Du Yuzhang's white robe fluttered in the wind, outlining a thin but tall silhouette.Although his black hair was tied behind his head, it was still blown wildly by the wind.

Those peach blossom eyes also seemed ruthless, but also passionate.Just looking at Li Guangning fixedly like that, as if he had seen through his soul.

"Du Qing...you are finally willing to come back...I knew it, you didn't go...you can't bear me!"

Li Guangning finally came back to his senses.But Du Yuzhang didn't answer.

He walked over step by step, with no expression on his face, but Li Guangning was so fascinated that he couldn't move his eyes away!

"Du Qing... I thought..."

Li Guangning staggered forward and stepped on an empty wine jar.He barely maintained his balance, but this time he fell firmly to the ground.

The wine jar rolled several times on the ground and landed at Du Yuzhang's feet.Du Yuzhang looked down, then at Li Guangning.

Li Guangning was so drunk that he couldn't get up for a while.At this moment, there are wine jars all over the floor, and there is always some residual wine spilled on the ground, which is dirty wine sludge on the body.Li Guangning struggled a few times, and even the dragon robe was wrinkled, not to mention the mud on it.

The emperor of Dayan had never been so embarrassed before.But now, how could Li Guangning care about these things?

In his heart, there is only one Du Yuzhang.Even when he was crawling on the ground, he just looked up and stared at Du Yuzhang.As if afraid to lose sight of him, Du Yuzhang disappeared out of thin air.

Du Yuzhang just stood there, watching Li Guangning coldly as he struggled to get up.

"Du Qing, where have you been? I'm so worried about you..."

As soon as Li Guangning got up, he hurriedly spread his arms and pulled Du Yuzhang into his arms.He tightened his arms more and more, crazily kissing Du Yuzhang's ears and cheeks.Du Yuzhang let him kiss without moving a muscle, let alone responding in the slightest.

"Where did you go? I looked for you everywhere...I thought...you..."

Li Guangning held Du Yuzhang's face with both hands,

"Where did you go?"

"Your Majesty, I went to kill someone."

"Murder? Heh..."

Li Guangning still looked at him obsessively, not caring what he said at all,

"Where would Du Qing kill people? You just...but almost killed me...I almost died of worry...Do you know the crime?"

"Of course I'm guilty. In front of Your Majesty, isn't this subject always guilty?"

Du Yuzhang laughed shortly.He put his lips close to Li Guangning's ear, whispering,

"Your Majesty, I just committed another serious crime - I killed Xu Xiaoqiu's only son. I don't know how to clean up this mess, Your Majesty?"

Li Guangning stiffened his body and opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Du Qing, what did you say?"

"I said—I killed Xu Xiaoqiu's son. He ruined 23 poor women. I just ordered someone to stab him 23 times. Now, notices to the world have spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital. His body should have been hung on the tower."

Du Yuzhang's voice was still soft, but with a gloomy coldness,

"Your Majesty, Xu Xiaoqiu sent troops to quell the chaos last night, King Qin has made a contribution. However, the minister used the iron coupon of the alchemy book to cut off his Xu family first. Your Majesty, how do you want to deal with this matter?"

"You killed Xu Xiaoqiu's...only son?"

Li Guangning's alcohol almost turned into coldness, dripping down his back.

He wasn't really afraid of Xu Xiaoqiu.But now that the suppression of the rebellion has just ended, Xu Xiaoqiu's prestige is at its peak!

But Du Yuzhang killed his only son at this time, and hung the body on the wall, tantamount to announcing it to the world - even if Li Guangning wanted to put pressure on it, it would be difficult for him to do so!

"why?"

"Because he's damned."

Du Yuzhang gently pushed Li Guangning's chest away.Li Guangning took a step back unconsciously, and suddenly felt that Du Yuzhang in front of him was so strange.

Du Yuzhang flicked his cuffs and stood with his hands behind his back, his voice was awe-inspiring——

"Using his identity as the son of a frontier general, he would force women to be his concubines every year when he went to the south of the Yangtze River to collect food. If the girl refused, he would rape him! The girl's family came to ask for an explanation, and he would even slander her. The girl sold herself on her own initiative, and she is actually a prostitute! The local officials are also afraid of the power of the Xu family, and they help the tyrants to abuse them. Those women have nowhere to redress their grievances, and they cannot bear the humiliation. Every year, some people commit suicide to prove their innocence! Your Majesty, do you think this kind of person should be killed? "

"If what Du Qing said is true, he should be killed."

Li Guangning murmured,

"But why did Du Qing...give me such a difficult problem today..."

"What problem did the minister give His Majesty?"

Du Yuzhang sneered,

"Could it be, is it a question of whether or not to give death to the minister?"

"Du Qing! Don't talk nonsense... How could I kill Du Qing?"

Li Guangning covered Du Yuzhang's mouth.The alcohol gradually came up, and his head began to hurt.For some reason, his heart also began to ache - but more, it was fear.

It seems that something important is passing away, and it will never look back.

"What's impossible?"

Du Yuzhang sneered in his voice,

"The minister walked all the way from outside the city, and the ground was covered with blood. A herald shouted loudly—rebellion and rebellion, everyone can be punished! Those rebels, there are many high-ranking officials! They are all dead! Why did the minister Can't?"

"Those are all traitors..."

"The minister is also a traitor!"

Du Yuzhang turned his head suddenly, his eyes were frighteningly bright.He took a step forward and stared into Li Guangning's eyes, which made Li Guangning shiver!

"Du Qing... don't talk nonsense..."

"I'm not talking nonsense! Your Majesty, haven't you really thought about it—who did Xu Xiaoqiu meet at the Huxin Pavilion yesterday? Whose connections did the Seventh Prince use to force him to join? Prosecute, why did you suddenly prosecute his son for marrying a woman from a good family? And why did you imprison Xu Zhenbian for a month, but after he fell to His Majesty, the minister immediately killed his son?"

"You shut up..."

"Why do you want to keep your mouth shut? Your Majesty, you know it in your heart! Xu Xiaoqiu met me at the Huxin Pavilion yesterday; the Seventh Prince was raising food in the south of the Yangtze River, and I was the one who dealt with it! I detained Xu Zhenbian, and in order to threaten Xu Xiaoqiu, I did not hesitate to fabricate Evidence, but still failed to convince him—seeing that the matter failed, I killed his son to vent my personal anger! I, Du Yuzhang, am the number one traitor in Tianzi! ! Your Majesty, not killing ministers is not enough to make the people angry, not killing ministers is not enough to calm Xu's anger..."

"Du Qing!"

Li Guangning suddenly roared and strangled Du Yuzhang by the throat!

He was gasping for breath, his chest heaved violently, and his hands clenched tighter and tighter—it was obvious that Du Yuzhang was the one who was on the verge of suffocation, but Li Guangning's expression was even more desperate!
