Chu Wuming left. Just as he walked out of the courtyard, Chu Wuque's laughter came from within.
"Hahaha, third brother, big brother will leave first. Hahaha."
Just as Chu Wuming said, he gave the two of them the most dignified way to die. Chu Wuque knew that he didn't have a second choice. Hearing Chu Wuming's laughter outside the courtyard, two streams of tears flowed down from his eyes.
Boil beans to make soup, soak beans to make juice. Soak beans in the pot, sob beans in the pot. They were born from the same roots, why should they kill each other so quickly?
Although the three brothers had always been fighting to the death for the position of Crown Prince, and wanted to completely eliminate each other, until now, when the dust had settled, Chu Wuming's heart was still uncontrollably touched when facing his brother's death.
No matter what happened in the past, no matter what grudges they had, the three of them were still brothers.
Chu Wuque's words kept ringing in Chu Wuming's ears. Chu Wuming raised his head to look at the horizon, trying his best not to let himself cry out loud. Chu Wuming murmured softly, "If it weren't for the fact that I was born in the imperial family, why would I be so heartless? But what can I do?
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Wuming left in loneliness. At the same time, in the courtyard, Chu Wuque raised a pot of poisoned wine and drank it all in one gulp. He then spat out a mouthful of blood and died on the spot.
Seeing Chu Wuque leave first, Chu Wushuang, who was at the side, walked over to Chu Wuque's corpse as if she had lost her soul. Hugging Chu Wuque's corpse, Chu Wushuang was expressionless. After that, she lifted the other pot of poisoned wine and drank it in one gulp.
Chu Wuming had already returned to his Crown Prince Eastern Palace, which had now become his temporary residence. At this moment, Chu Wuming was drinking alone in the courtyard. Zhao Feng quickly walked over and bowed respectfully to Chu Wuming. "Your Highness, the First Prince and Second Prince …"
He originally wanted to tell Chu Wuming that Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang had already died, but before Zhao Feng could finish, Chu Wuming waved his hand helplessly and interrupted him.
"I know. First Prince Chu Wushuang will be named King Nanyang and Second Prince Chu Wushuang will be named King Beihe. They will be buried in the Imperial Tombs."
"Understood," Zhao Feng respectfully replied after hearing Chu Wuming's words.
"That's right, go invite brother Xiao Chen over," Chu Wuming said.
After personally killing his two brothers, Chu Wuming was extremely annoyed and wanted to drink. At this moment, the only person who could drink with Chu Wuming was Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen, who had received Chu Wuming's invitation, soon arrived at the Crown Prince Eastern Palace. Ever since Chu Wuming came to power, although Xiao Chen hadn't received any rewards, everyone knew that Chu Wuming still treated Xiao Chen as a friend and brother. Even though Chu Wuming was in power, he was still wary of Xiao Chen. This was because Chu Wuming knew that with Xiao Chen's talent and strength, a measly Moonless Empire was nothing in his eyes. Xiao Chen's world was the vast world outside the Pill Sun County.
In the entire Moonless Empire, only Xiao Chen could enter and leave the Imperial Palace as he pleased.
They soon arrived at the Crown Prince Eastern Palace. Seeing Xiao Chen, Chu Wuming revealed a forced smile and personally pulled Xiao Chen's hand to the pavilion in the courtyard.
In the pavilion, Wu Yun also bowed respectfully when she saw Xiao Chen. "Young Master Xiao Chen."
Now that Chu Wuming was already the Crown Prince, Wu Yun naturally became the Crown Princess. Her status could be said to be unattainable. At the same time, the Wu Clan also became the most popular clan in the entire Moonless Empire from a small clan.
However, even so, Wu Yun still didn't dare to be impudent in front of Xiao Chen. She was a smart woman and knew that the reason why Chu Wuming could be where he was today was all because of Xiao Chen. Otherwise, Chu Wuming's fate would have been Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang today.
He nodded slightly at Wu Yun and then walked to the table with Chu Wuming. The two of them sat opposite each other and Wu Yun personally poured wine for them.
Xiao Chen had already guessed why Chu Wuming called him over. Knowing that Chu Wuming was depressed, Xiao Chen didn't say anything and drank with Chu Wuming.
After three rounds of drinking, perhaps because of his mood, Chu Wuming didn't use his spiritual energy to dissolve the alcohol in his body. Thus, at this moment, Chu Wuming was already a little tipsy. His eyes were blurred as he looked at Xiao Chen and spoke incoherently.
"Brother Xiao, do you think I'm too cold-blooded? How could you kill your own brother? I … "
Chu Wuming didn't feel good about personally executing two of his brothers. Upon hearing his words, Xiao Chen said indifferently. "Do you regret it, Your Highness?"
Regret it? Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Chu Wuming asked himself this question. After pondering for a moment, Chu Wuming shook his head and replied. "I don't regret it. I didn't choose. I didn't choose …"
You don't regret your decision. Upon hearing his words, Xiao Chen continued. "Since you don't regret it, why do you have to do this, Your Majesty? As a King, there are many things that you don't want to do, but you have to do them. This is the helplessness of a King."
Xiao Chen didn't know how to console Chu Wuming because he hadn't experienced this before.
That night, Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming drank the entire night in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. Crown Prince Chu Wuming was completely drunk and bawling his eyes out. He didn't seem like a Crown Prince at all.
Originally, he thought that he could mercilessly kill Chu Wuming and Chu Wuming who wanted to kill him. However, when it was time to actually take action, Chu Wuming realized that his heart actually hurt so much.
No matter how much he hated Chu Wuque and Chu Wuyue, the kinship of blood was thicker than water. It was easy to say that he wanted to kill his own brothers. However, if he really wanted to do it, that feeling was heart-wrenching.
In the end, Chu Wuming was supported back to his bedroom by Wu Yun, while Xiao Chen returned to the Heavenly Stellar Residence alone.
Perhaps he was infected by Chu Wuming. On the way back, Xiao Chen inexplicably imagined that if he were to encounter such a situation, would he end up like Chu Wuming?
After all, the Xiao Clan was also a large clan. It wasn't hard to imagine that if they successfully returned to the Heavenly Stellar Continent in the future, the Xiao Clan would become one of the top clans even if it wasn't the largest clan in the Heavenly Stellar Continent. In that case, would the Xiao Clan end up like the Wuyue Empire today?
In order to fight for the position of Patriarch, would the Xiao Clan's disciples kill each other?
Without an answer, Xiao Chen didn't know if the Xiao Clan would end up like that.
With his imagination running wild, Xiao Chen returned to the Heavenly Stellar Residence. Now that the matter of the Wuyue Empire had been settled, the only thing left was to destroy the Heavenly Wolf Empire. With the first ray of sunlight in the morning, Xiao Chen, who was standing in the courtyard, looked in the direction of the Heavenly Wolf Empire and softly muttered to himself.
"Blood Wolf King, I said that I would definitely cut off your head with my own hands."
