Mo Ronghui handed over the jade seal because of Ye Zhen. He watched Ye Zhen grow up. Such a pearl-like little girl, when she called him brother, her voice was so delicate that it melted people's hearts. He didn't know when he fell in love with her. He only remembered that at that time, whether he was holding the crown princess or the favored concubine, all he could think of was Ye Zhen.
If it weren't for Mo Rongzhan, he would have made Ye Zhen empress when he ascended the throne.
Instead, she became Mo Rongzhan's concubine.
He wished he could tear Mo Rongzhan to pieces.
However, not only did he not have the ability to kill Mo Rongzhan, but he was also robbed of the Jin kingdom.
Mo Rongzhan sent someone to negotiate with him. As long as he was willing to hand over the jade seal and announce to the world that he would abdicate the throne to him, he was willing to exchange Ye Zhen for it.
The Jin kingdom in exchange for Ye Zhen.
If he did not hand over the jade seal, the Jin kingdom would be lost sooner or later. For Mo Rongzhan, the jade seal was something he would get sooner or later, so he agreed to hand over the jade seal in exchange for the beloved woman he could not forget.
He did not wait for Ye Zhen. The jade seal was stolen by someone around him and sent to Mo Rongzhan. He was placed under house arrest. It wasn't long before he heard the news that Ye Zhen committed suicide in Prince Qin's Mansion.
For so many years, he had never figured out why Ye Zhen committed suicide. She was the Princess of Qin, the one who would rightfully become the empress. He thought she was implicated by the Ye family, but now he knew that it was not the case. He just didn't expect Mo Rongzhan to be so ruthless. Even if he hated Ye Zhen, he would not confer her a title, but he sent someone to kill her.
For the first time in a long time, Mo Ronghui's heart was filled with anger and unwillingness.
Lu Lingzhi saw Mo Ronghui's reaction and just smiled faintly. "Crown Prince, you don't have to be sad. Since the emperor made Lu Yaoyao the empress, Ye Zhen has also been posthumously conferred the title of empress and buried in the imperial mausoleum."
"Who are you?" Mo Ronghui suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at the man in front of him with his dark eyes.
This man said that he was the chief steward of Princess Yi from the State of Qi, but listening to his words, he seemed to be from the Jin kingdom.
"Your servant just … sympathizes with Your Highness's life experience." Lu Lingzhi said in a low voice, "I also have a woman I love, but she was snatched away by someone of a more noble status than me. I was also made into a eunuch and ended up like this. In the few years I've been in Jingdou, I've often heard of the legendary stories between the Emperor and the Empress. After careful investigation, I discovered that there was more to it than meets the eye. I can't help but feel a little emotional."
Mo Ronghui didn't expect Lin Yan to have such a story behind him. However, he had a feeling that this Steward Lin wasn't as simple as he seemed. "If I didn't know that Eunuch Lin was from the State of Qi, I would have thought that there was a huge grudge between you and Mo Rongzhan."
"I don't have any hatred. I said so much to Your Highness because I sympathize with Your Highness's situation." Lu Lingzhi said calmly, "For so many years, is Your Highness willing to hide in the sea?"
Just as he had guessed, Lin Yan did not say these words for no reason. "The loser is the thief. This is the fate of the loser. Do you think I can rebel?"
Lu Lingzhi shook his head and smiled. "How can you call it a rebellion? I'm just taking back what belongs to me."
He was now alone, and there was no one who could help him do things. How could he get back what belonged to him? Mo Ronghui said faintly, "Eunuch Lin thinks too much. I am very satisfied with my life now. In the future … you don't have to come anymore."
"Your Highness seems to have no fighting spirit." Lu Lingzhi had already guessed such a result, so he was not surprised by Mo Ronghui's expulsion.
Mo Ronghui said lightly, "People need fighting spirit to live."
Lu Lingzhi got up and said goodbye. He knew that this alone could not make Mo Ronghui make a decision immediately. What if Mo Ronghui knew that Lu Yaoyao was Ye Zhen?
Unfortunately, it was not the right time. Even if he said it, Mo Ronghui would not believe it.
"This slave has always had a firm belief. No matter how much effort I have to put in, I must find a way to get back what belongs to me." Lu Lingzhi said as he walked.
Mo Ronghui looked up at his back. He felt that this Lin Yan was too naive to encourage him to fight against Mo Rongzhan. What he needed was not only the identity of a former crown prince. Mo Rongzhan was already the king of a country. What was he? He was just a waste who was under house arrest in the palace. How could he command thousands of soldiers to follow him with a wave of his arm?
Lu Lingzhi left the palace, but Mo Ronghui's mood could not calm down.
"Master, Winter Song has already gone to the manor. Princess has sent someone to invite Your Highness, but Your Highness hasn't left yet." Luo Cheng was waiting in the carriage outside. When he saw Lu Lingzhi come out, he immediately went forward to report.
"Mo Rongyi is afraid that Zhao Ning wants to separate from him, so he doesn't dare to meet him." Lu Lingzhi smiled faintly, "It seems that Zhao Ning has found a problem. Find someone to take the blame, lest they find you."
Luo Cheng responded, "I understand. I have already made arrangements." He glanced at Lu Lingzhi, "I just don't understand. If Zhao Ning really separates from Mo Rongyi, will we have no excuse to stay in the capital?"
"If they could separate, they would have done so long ago." Lu Lingzhi said, "How are other things going?"
"Don't worry. Everything is going smoothly. When the time comes, the jianghu will definitely be in chaos. Those good-for-nothings in the imperial court will not be our match. However, is that Mo Ronghui still not willing to listen to your arrangements?" Luo Cheng said.
Lu Lingzhi smiled, "He still needs some stimulation."
"This subordinate is just worried … …" Luo Cheng looked at Lu Lingzhi hesitantly.
"Worried about what?" Lu Lingzhi stepped on the snow, making squeaking sounds. He did not walk quickly. In this kind of weather, it was a strenuous thing for him to go out.
Luo Cheng looked at him. His master, who used to be so skilled in martial arts, had become so sickly. He could only rely on persuading others to believe in him and help him. "This subordinate is worried that that person is just using the Thousand Hand Spider to kill people for him. Master, it was not easy for the Thousand Hand Spider to gain a foothold in the jianghu. Although it has replaced Qian Luocha, but … …"
"It was originally an existence that killed people to earn money. Being used is also killing people. There is no difference." Lu Lingzhi said coldly.
"Master … …" Luo Cheng still wanted to persuade him. After losing so much, now they only had the Thousand Hand Spider left. If even this was gone, then they would really have nothing.
Lu Lingzhi looked at the bright sky and said, "What he wants is what I want to destroy. Snatching it from Mo Rongzhan's hands for him, I will have my revenge. That is enough."
"Master, don't you find it strange that he wants Jin Country?" Luo Cheng asked in a low voice. For a martial artist to suddenly want something that should not belong to him, it was an unimaginable thing.
"It's not strange." Because that person's identity should have all of this.
