As I watched the old woman put on a loving tone to make a sugar-coated bullet, I knew that she was someone who could change her face. However, she changed her face too quickly. Everyone knew that she had ulterior motives, let alone Tang Min.
/p
Tang Min sneered and didn't say anything else. He secretly gathered power in his hands.
/p
I glanced at Prince Yue. He didn't look surprised at all. I finally understood why he dared to stand on the sidelines and watch the show with folded arms. As it turned out, this alliance between the Prince of Yue and Tang Min had been arranged long ago. A spy had inserted himself into the Old Madam Tang's great case of rebellion to disrupt the situation, while the Prince of Yue only needed to remain motionless and wait for the great dog-eat-dog show to begin.
/p
Old Madam Tang didn't say anything else. However, her cultivation was much higher than Tang Min's. Tang Min was already prepared when he was secretly gathering power. She didn't wait for Tang Min to make a move. She directly rushed forward and pressed her withered hand on her grandson's head.
/p
There was a loud bang. She didn't hold back at all.
/p
I was shocked. However, after thinking for a bit, I understood. I said to Prince Yue, "It seems that Old Madam Tang is really a lamp that has run out of oil."
/p
Prince Yue replied, "Otherwise, she wouldn't have tried so hard to steal someone's body."
/p
The Tang Matriarch had made this vicious move for the sake of one last gamble. She wanted to take over her grandson's young body and rise from the ashes. She didn't eat her own child. Moreover, it was a distant relative.
/p
Prince Yue and I looked at each other and smiled. There was a bit of sadness in our smiles. Perhaps it was human morality, but when we saw this scene of flesh and blood, we felt a bit of pity for him.
/p
Tang Min faced Old Lady Tang's attack head-on. She met a tough opponent and stood firm on the ground, putting on a vicious appearance.
/p
However, he withdrew all the power in his hands.
/p
No one knew what Tang Min was thinking. He used his head as a shield and allowed Old Madam Tang's claws to hit his head. However, he was not a master of the Iron Head Technique. After forcibly receiving the attack, the veins on his forehead throbbed like the dense lines of a fishing net. He seemed to be in great pain and let out a muffled cry.
/p
Surprised, I couldn't help but curse, "Tang Min, you're crazy!"
/p
Tang Min let out a low chuckle. She went from a muffled chuckle to a loud laugh. While laughing, she suddenly pulled out a small knife from her waist. She aimed it at her heart and fiercely stabbed it.
/p
I was stunned and carefully rubbed my eyes. That's right, Tang Min, this pervert, was indeed trying to stab himself in the heart with a knife.
/p
Is he tired of living?
/p
At this moment, Tang Min's voice sounded a little like that of an old man. It was hoarse and unpleasant to hear. He leisurely said to Old Madam Tang with a smile, "So, can you die?"
/p
I saw that Old Madam Tang's chest was also bleeding profusely. She seemed to be in disbelief, so much so that she didn't have the strength to pay attention to anything else. The hand that was pressing on Tang Min's head suddenly loosened its grip, and her two hands clutched at her chest in a futile attempt to stop the bleeding.
/p
Tang Min easily pulled out the knife from his chest, bent over and spat out a mouthful of blood. He showed his red teeth and said with a mocking smile, "Grandmother, you told me that I can't be careless during the soul swap. My soul is your soul, and your body is my body. My body is indestructible, so how can your old and broken body withstand my knife?"
/p
Of course, Old Madam Tang couldn't withstand it. It was probably not only her body that couldn't withstand it, but also her heart. The grandson she relied on the most betrayed her while ridiculing her. Her heart and body were damaged.
/p
"Your knife took my life, and you won't be able to keep your life!" Old Madam Tang shouted angrily.
/p
Tang Min pretended to take a good look at the knife that had just been inserted into her heart. Under the sunlight, the glint of the knife made people's heart turn cold.
/p
He smiled at his knife, and then turned his head to smile at me. That smile had the meaning of farewell. I also saw him raise the knife and stab himself in the heart again.
/p
I couldn't bear to look anymore. Yes, it seemed that he was tired of living.
/p
Tang Min shouted, "Turn your face around!"
/p
I subconsciously understood that he was calling me, but I just didn't want to turn my head to look at him.
/p
"Tang Chuizhu!" He directly called my name, "Turn your face around for this young master."
/p
I just didn't turn my head. Not only did I not turn my head, but I also mocked him, "Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around?"
/p
Prince Yue, who was originally protecting me like a child, was now mute and did not say a word. I glared at him and wanted to move behind him, but he moved two more steps, exposing my body in front of Tang Min's eyes.
/p
On the other side, the battle had already come to a standstill. The Tang Old Lady kneeled in the wet mud and did not get up again. She only used her hands to cover the wound on her heart, as if saying another word would cause her to vomit out several more basins of blood.
/p
Tang Min was still young and strong. He could still stand in the same place and shout, "If you want her to live peacefully, let her face the blood herself!" These words were obviously directed at Prince Yue.
/p
Prince Yue looked at me and didn't say a word, but his exposed eyes were already wavering. His attitude made me more confused. I was a woman who was going to be in charge of the household, why would I have to face the blood?
/p
"He's right."
/p
Yue Wangye suddenly opened his mouth and said to me in a low voice as if he was enduring intense pain.
/p
"He's right."
/p
Prince Yue repeated this sentence, as if he was using this sentence to encourage himself. He heaved a long sigh and held my body, forcing me to face the other side of the battlefield.
/p
When Tang Min saw that I was turned around, he grinned at me, revealing his bloody teeth. The knife in his chest had already gone in and out a few times, but he still didn't seem to be satisfied. He reached out to pull it out and stabbed it into the same wound again.
/p
Not only did he stab it in, he also stirred it like he was grinding medicine. The crushed flesh and blood flowed out like a small spring. It was really disgusting.
/p
Tang Min was truly able to endure, but Old Madam Tang's old body simply could not endure such a cruel punishment. Her throat was rough as she screamed towards the sky. Her bones seemed to have been pulled out as she became limp. She raised a trembling hand and pointed at Tang Min, hateful but unable to say anything. She could only hold back one word and scream again and again.
/p
She said, "You!! You!!! "
/p
Tang Min staggered to Old Madam Tang's side and pulled out the dagger that he had used countless times from his chest. Old Madam Tang's face was splashed with blood.
/p
Tang Min weakly stood in front of her. He said softly, "Grandmother, take care." As he spoke, the dagger in his hand changed direction. It didn't go to his heart and was lifted high. Tang Min's hand loosened, and the dagger directly penetrated Old Madam Tang's skull like an arrow.
/p
The blood was like a pig's bubble. When the sharp steel needle pierced it, it was like fireworks exploding and covering her face.
/p
The spirit in Old Madam Tang's eyes completely dissipated.
/p
She died with her eyes wide open.
/p
My stomach churned, for it was a sight which would have given any man nightmares at night.
/p
Old Madam Tang's aged body swayed a few times before falling backward. She had once been the Holy Maiden of Guanzhong, a first-rank noble lady. Now that she had died while wearing imperial robes, she was dignified. She could be considered an ambitious and ruthless woman. However, with such an end, it was unknown if she would feel indignant for herself in the underworld.
/p
The execution of death was really long. I looked at Old Madam Tang's body for a long time. After I was sure that the body wouldn't move anymore, I dared to ask Prince Yue next to me, "Old Madam Tang, is she really dead?"
/p
Prince Yue was a know-it-all. He only glanced at the body and replied with certainty, "She's dead."
/p
At the same time, Tang Min shouted, "She's dead!"
/p
This shout startled Prince Yue and me. Tang Min shouted, then slowly stood up and said sadly, "They're all dead."
/p
He lowered his voice and suddenly cried in a low voice, "I'm the only one. I'm the only one who can't die."
/p
My heart softened at once.
/p
Living a life worse than death. Begging for death wasn't possible. It was also a tragedy in the human world. What did this man, who looked like a psychopath on the surface, experience that made him want to die without hesitation?
/p
The Prince of Yue pulled me over, wanting to help him up. Presumably, the Prince of Yue knew a lot. Even if this person had done many irreparable wrong things, it still made him feel a rare trace of pity.
/p
Tang Min turned around. The top of his head looked like Old Madam Tang's. There seemed to be a big hole that was bleeding. Prince Yue looked at his miserable appearance and slightly frowned. He said to him, "You've done well in this case of the Tang family. This Prince will report the truth to Imperial Father and reward you for forsaking the darkness and joining the light."
/p
I frowned and looked at his miserable appearance. What was the point of rewarding him? Would he be able to live for another hour? His chest was pierced, and his skull was pierced. His body might not even be able to preserve a complete corpse.
/p
Tang Min stood up weakly and said to the Prince of Yue: "What I asked for, what I asked for was destroyed by my own hands. What was forced upon me, I don't know if the Prince of Yue could lend a hand and help me get rid of it."
/p
Prince Yue asked, "How do you want to get rid of it?"
/p
Tang Min still had some strength to lift his hand. He pointed at me and said, "Let her get rid of it."
/p
Being called, I panicked. I turned to Prince Yue and asked, "What does he want me to do? He doesn't want me to kill him, does he? "
/p
The Prince of Yue didn't reply to me. He glanced at me, then at him. Tang Min nimbly pulled out the dagger she'd been using to cut meat from Old Madam Tang's head. Blood and brains, white and red and greasy, were all hanging from her head. The smell was very disgusting and unpleasant.
/p
I wrinkled my nose and covered my mouth and nose. My heart was full of displeasure.
/p
Prince Yue didn't mind that it was dirty. He reached out and took the dagger. After a pause, he turned to me. His eyes were burning with a hint of guilt.
/p
I didn't take it. I pointed at the two men and scolded, "Crazy!"
/p
They were really crazy!
/p
One didn't care about his life, one agreed, and the other didn't care about his life. If these two weren't crazy, then what were they?
/p
Tang Min looked at me and said word by word as if he wanted to chisel his words into my heart, "To Tang Chuizhu, I'm the evil brother who forced her to jump into the river. I'm the hungry ghost who tortured her. To you, I'm the enemy of the Tang family. I'm the thief who plotted against you. I'm so evil, why can't you kill me?"
/p
I was stunned. My mouth opened and closed, but I couldn't say anything. Tang Min was telling the truth. Because it was the truth, I couldn't refute it.
/p
Tang Min had committed so many evil deeds. Even if he died, it wouldn't be a pity.
/p
I calmed myself down and muttered in my heart, "Although I'm not dead, although I'm not dead, although I'm not dead, although I'm not dead, I forcefully took the red and white dagger. My hand trembled as I looked at Tang Min's face that deserved a beating. But no matter what, I couldn't do it.
/p
Even if he didn't deserve to die, why did he make me this annoying executioner?
/p
I gritted my teeth and handed the dagger back to Prince Yue. I didn't even dare to look at him, "You do it!"
/p
Tang Min grinned and asked me, "You don't dare?"
/p
Prince Yue put the dagger in my hand and grabbed my hand that was holding the dagger. He coaxed me, "I'll help you, I'll accompany you, but you have to do it."
/p
I couldn't break free, so I just kept asking him why.
/p
Prince Yue said, "Tang Matriarch is dead. It's a good opportunity for the imperial court to take over Guan Zhongsheng Village. With your status, you are the best person to take over Guan Zhongsheng Village. Everything you face in the future will be a thousand times worse than today."
/p
I kept pushing and shoving, not wanting to take over. Prince Yue was like an iron chain that bound me, making it impossible for me to move. I really didn't want to do this. There was a hint of pleading in my posture. I softened my voice and begged him, "Different situations call for different actions. You don't have to make me face these things right now. Learn these things."
/p
"You have to learn."
/p
My eyes were filled with tears as I glared at him.
/p
Prince Yue looked at me from behind the mask. He said to me seriously, "When the time comes, I won't be able to take care of this for you. If you can't take care of it yourself, I won't be at ease."
/p
He sighed somewhat self-deprecatingly. "Today, I finally realized that I can't protect you in everything. There's nothing I can do about it, just like there was nothing I could do about it before. "
/p
This dagger, which had been stained with blood today, was now held by two people. Prince Yue and I were in a deadlock. I wanted to withdraw my hand from the dagger, but he wanted to firmly press my hand on the dagger. Taking advantage of this empty space, both of our hands pressed on the other hand. I raised my head and saw Tang Min angrily glaring at me with a pair of red eyes.
/p
"You don't dare to kill me?"
/p
I looked at the dagger and then at him. Then, I admitted defeat and said honestly, "I won't kill you. I don't dare to kill you."
/p
Tang Min curled up half of her face and smiled. "Kindness will harm one's life. Although you are a different soul, once you enter this body, you are the same as my younger sister."
/p
I retorted, "I'm not being kind. I just don't want to stain my hands with blood."
/p
Tang Min said, "Then how about you ask your husband to kill me?"
/p
How about it? It should be possible. But when I looked at Prince Yue next to me, I couldn't tell him to kill me.
/p
"You can't say it, right?" Tang Min said with a smile. "You are still kind."
/p
Prince Yue's hand that was holding mine tightened because of this sentence.
/p
"People say that it is easy to kill someone, but difficult to save someone. But let me tell you, it is also difficult to kill someone." Tang Min looked like he was dying, but his words were kind as he taught me. "The saints also said that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. It is much easier to order someone to kill someone than to kill the enemy with your own hands. But in fact, if you can't kill someone yourself, how can you order someone to kill someone?"
/p
He had said so much that his blood had already flowed out into a puddle, yet there was no sign of him dying. He continued to preach, "In the final analysis, it is benevolence that causes mischief. Being benevolent to the common people is the flowery appearance of those at the pinnacle of power; being benevolent to your enemies is your foolishness."
/p
After being called stupid by him, I didn't have the courage to kill him anymore. With tears in my eyes, I scolded him, "Shut up!"
/p
He didn't shut up. Instead, he laughed even more heartily. "I let you call me brother for no reason, so I can't do nothing. Let me be the first to kill someone."
/p
Tang Min raised his head, and his eyes slid from my face to Prince Yue's face. "I'll do it."
/p
Prince Yue let go of my hand and said politely, "I'll have to trouble you."
/p
Their tone was respectful, and it was as if they were teaching each other how to cook. I wanted to cry. What kind of people are they?
/p
Tang Min touched my hand directly. At first, it trembled as if he was pricked by a needle. Then, he looked at me and slowly smiled. His smile didn't have the usual sharpness and evilness. It was as bright as the rising sun, and it showed the vitality that people his age should have.
/p
First, he took my hand in his and squeezed it tightly, as if he were reluctant to part with me before he left.
/p
I didn't have anything else to say, and I didn't dare to look at him, so I diverted my attention and shouted, "It hurts! It hurts! " He let go of my hand as if it was a treasure, and then solemnly held me again, and drove that disgusting dagger towards his heart.
/p
I moved inch by inch slowly, and inch by inch reluctantly.
/p
I gritted my teeth and finally looked up at him. "Actually, you don't have to die if you change your identity and go to the end of the world."
/p
Tang Min's face was particularly pale because of the last blow, and his pupils reflected the confusion before death. I looked at him and didn't have time to feel sad. Instead, I heaved a sigh of relief. He's finally dead. He's finally dead.
/p
But before he died, his mouth didn't stop. He only said intermittently, "I'm better off dead than alive. Even if I'm dead, I can still find … find …"
/p
I didn't know who he was looking for, and I had no way of finding out. Because before he finished his sentence, his neck tilted and he died. This person was deranged, perverted, dirty, and cruel. He had been a scourge for thousands of years. But he was dead. He died in my hands, but I couldn't feel happy.
/p
Prince Yue walked over silently and said to me, "Let's go."
/p
Two corpses and an unconscious Seventh Prince were lying haphazardly on the grass. After all this trouble, the sun was already setting in the west. When the cicada moon first appeared, a great case of rebellion that shocked the entire country could be said to have been successfully concluded in my hands. It was commendable and worthy of praise.
