"Xun 'er, don't cry. Father-in-law and mother-in-law will be sad to see you like this."
"The dead are gone. You still have me. When this is over, we'll bury them with our own hands."
Duanmu Yulin hugged her through the coffin and patted her back continuously. His voice was soft and slow, trying to help her walk out of her sorrow.
Xunmi buried her head in her husband's shoulder. Her tears were all on his clothes.
The original owner's emotions were very intense. She hadn't been affected much before, but when she heard about the remains of her loved ones, she couldn't help it.
How could she not understand this kind of pain, sorrow, and despair?
After a while, she slowly calmed down. "I'm fine. Yulin, don't worry."
"Right, look. Is this it?" She struggled out of her husband's embrace and raised the item in her hand in front of him excitedly.
Bright yellow was a color that only emperors could use since ancient times. Now that she found this in the coffin, even if she didn't see if there was any content on it, she was certain that this was the imperial edict that dog and her husband were looking for.
Duanmu Yulin didn't know what to say. How could she be so foolish?
She was so good to him. She clearly knew that the Zhong Marquis Estate was like this because of this item. It could also be said that it was indirectly because of him, but she didn't hate him at all.
His heart was so devoted that he couldn't control it. His rapid heartbeat told him that he had to hold on tightly and firmly.
If he didn't have her in his life, his life wouldn't be complete and meaningless.
At this moment, he felt that his existence was to wait for her arrival.
"You're so happy that you're silly. Quickly open it and take a look." Xunmi poked her husband's arm in amusement and pushed the item into his hand.
Little guy, she clearly knew about her husband's messy thoughts.
All of this was clearly caused by that dog emperor. It had nothing to do with her husband at all.
He made her husband sad. As expected, she should teach that dog emperor a lesson tomorrow.
Duanmu Yulin gathered his thoughts and opened the bright yellow brocade in his hand. Black words and a bright red seal immediately appeared in front of them.
"It really is. My father is so smart." Xunmi exclaimed happily. She was full of admiration for Marquis Qi, who she didn't have the chance to meet again.
To think of hiding something here, he really dared to take a gamble.
"That's right. Father-in-law is really smart. Xun 'er, let's go. It's time to seek justice for father-in-law and the others."
Duanmu Yulin put away the things and stood up to help Xunmi out. He had already turned twenty last year.
At first, his original intention was to avenge his father and mother and make the person on the throne pay the price. He didn't have any thoughts about the throne, but now …
He was determined to get the throne because he wanted her to become the most noble woman in the world.
— — —
"Latest news, latest news! It turns out that that person has a younger brother. The throne was also snatched from his younger brother. The old emperor said that when the real crown prince comes of age, he would let that person return the throne to him. In the end …"
"What's the result? Tell me quickly."
"In the end, not only did he not return that thing, he even wanted to kill all the princes and lords, just to prevent the late emperor's imperial edict from being published."
"What imperial edict?"
"Returning the Imperial Edict to the real Crown Prince. I heard that the reason why the Zhong Marquis Mansion was destroyed was because the last Imperial Edict was in the hands of Marquis Qi. That thing is afraid."
"I can't believe there's such a disgusting emperor in this world. Looks like he won't last long."
— — —
In less than two days, there was another wave of activity in the capital city, and this wave was not limited to the capital city.
In less than ten days, almost all the princes and lords knew about it and started to get restless.
The contents of the imperial edict were detailed by Duanmu Yulin and leaked without any concealment.
How could someone with ambition let go of such a good opportunity?
Moreover, in all these years, almost no one had seen the real Crown Prince. Even the princes in the palace didn't know they had an imperial uncle.
"Father, are the rumors true?"
Duanmu Lun, who had recovered after a few days of recuperation, anxiously asked the man in the dragon robe sitting behind the table.
He still wanted to inherit the throne. What if someone else took the throne? What would he do?
Duanmu Yurong's face was gloomy. His fat body filled up the entire chair. He didn't seem to hear Duanmu Lun's words.
"Have you found out?" Who was the one who kept causing trouble? He couldn't find any clues.
Also, the imperial edict he had been looking for had been leaked. Damn it, damn it.
"Master, we only found out that someone went to the Zhong Marquis' residence. She was dressed in white. According to the description of the people who saw her, it should be a woman."
A voice came from the dark. It was unpleasant to the ears, but it wasn't the focus of the two people in the study.
Bang. "A woman? It must be Xunmi Qi. Find her. If you can't find her, you can apologize with your lives. "
He slammed the table. He was so angry that his eyebrows trembled. He didn't expect that old bastard Qi Guang to have such a backup plan.
Bang. The teacup beside his hand was thrown away. This position was his. No one could take it away.
No matter how stupid Duanmu Lun was, he understood that the rumors were true.
No, even if it was true, it couldn't come true. The throne was his. Since that imperial uncle didn't appear in the beginning, then he shouldn't appear.
Only a dead person was the safest.
"Father, since the imperial edict said that if that person died, another prince would take the throne. Then let's kill him and find someone to pretend to be him. Let him say that he doesn't want the throne. Wouldn't it be fine? "
The angry Duanmu Yurong was stunned. Then, he laughed. "My son is smart. Hahaha."
"I'll leave this matter to you. Once you're done, I'll make you the crown prince."
He didn't think of such a simple problem. Fortunately, it wasn't too late.
Fortunately, he had hidden that damn brother of his all these years. No one had seen his true face. It was great.
"Yes, Father. I'll do it well."
Duanmu Lun's chest was burning. As long as this matter was solved, he would be the crown prince and the emperor in the future.
Anyway, his father wouldn't live for long. It was just a few years. He could afford to wait.
Xunmi, who was invisible, appeared on the roof. She looked up at the scorching sun in the sky with tears streaming down her face.
Why was she so stupid to come to the roof? Even being under the roof was better than this. She was frustrated.
However, she was very satisfied with what she heard. She was prepared to deal with that dog of an emperor, but now …
She looked at the white powder in her hand with a sinister smile. The Nightmare Fantasy Powder was a must-have for traveling and killing.
With a light blow, all the powder floated into the imperial study along with the tiles that were uncovered.
The powder became colorless the moment it came into contact with the air. Without them noticing, they absorbed it as air.
