King's favor is hard to do

"Your Majesty said it very well."

Du Yuzhang spoke slowly, only feeling that every word hurt his heart.

"All of this is what I asked for. It's my fault! It's my... It deserves it."

"It's good that you know!" Li Guangning held his toes proudly, "So how do you choose? Do you want to obediently serve me in the palace, or..."

"Report to Your Majesty, I am willing to be His Majesty's pet."

Li Guangning was overjoyed and looked at Du Yuzhang proudly.He thought, this person really is like this—as long as there are tangible benefits, he doesn't care about any appearance of shame.Although the prime minister has a high position and authority, he still needs to be restricted by Yushitai and court officials in his work.His pet, Li Guangning, was different.The ones who are directly transferred are the Ouchi guards, who enjoy the rich clothes and fine food. If they serve him comfortably, they can also enjoy the life and death privileges given by Shang Fang's sword. With these benefits, a person like Du Yuzhang can care about nothing else ?

Unexpectedly, Du Yuzhang's next words directly froze his smile on his face.

"I am willing to continue preparing for the peace talks with Ximan as your majesty's beloved."

"What did you say?!"

"As your Majesty's beloved, I would like to prepare for the peace talks with Ximan!" Du Yuzhang's voice became louder, "When all the dust settles, I will naturally enter the palace to serve Your Majesty!"

"I've said so much, but you still don't understand?"

"Your Majesty, you are wrong. In the past, I was obsessed with obsession—I always thought that there were some things and some people that I should have a little hope for." Du Yuzhang smiled bitterly, "But now I have an epiphany. It's time to let go."

"..."

"Your Majesty. After three months, I resigned from my post and discussed with Ximan. After that, I will... leave it to His Majesty to deal with."

——Why did Du Yuzhang say that suddenly?What does he mean by epiphany and letting go?

Doubts arose in Li Guangning's heart.When he frowned slightly, he saw Du Yuzhang raised his head with a smile - that extremely bright and enchanting face just looked up at him from bottom to top.There are two peach blossoms on the cheeks, and when she smiles, it is so beautiful that it is shocking!

Li Guangning's breathing was stagnant.Something wrong that he vaguely noticed just now, was immediately forgotten by him.

"Your Majesty, I will retire now."

Du Yuzhang was so disheartened that he didn't want to stay in the palace for a moment.But he didn't want to, someone grabbed his wrist and almost fell down.He staggered and bumped into Li Guangning.

"His Majesty?"

He was supported, but in the next second, he was kneeling on the ground with his shoulders pressed.

"Du Qing, do you think that in this palace, you can come and leave whenever you want?"

Du Yuzhang knelt on the ground without saying a word.Li Guangning's voice sounded from above his head.

"Du Qing, I don't know why, seeing your recalcitrant appearance, I just want to force you to subdue you like this, and ask you to serve me...until I am satisfied."

While speaking, Li Guangning thrust his hand into Du Yuzhang's mouth, stirring vigorously.With sharp knuckles, he directly stabbed Du Yuzhang's throat, causing him to suffocate.

"Woo...Your Majesty!"

It was too deep... so uncomfortable... Tears welled up in the corners of Du Yuzhang's eyes, and he vomited.He couldn't bear it anymore, reached out and grabbed Li Guangning's wrist,

"Your Majesty! No..."

"Yes, that's how you beg for mercy!"

Li Guangning laughed loudly.There is a bit of cruel pleasure in my heart.
