Chapter 1065 Doing evil
A group of guards were ready to go, waiting for Gu Mengzhen to succeed, and then they would appear to capture Fang Zhixuan and Ning Yunxi and escort them to the North Hall of Disheng Palace.
Gu Mengzhen ordered Ning Yunxi to be tied to a special chair, not only her limbs but even her fingers, to ensure that she had no power to fight back.
Seeing her struggling desperately, her face full of pain, Gu Mengzhen felt happy and smiled contentedly.
"Don't be afraid, Xi'er. You should know that under the current circumstances, I will not let you die in the palace."
"Even though I can't control the entire world, I still want to enjoy the honors of an emperor, be known as a meritorious official, and be posthumously honored as an emperor. If you die inexplicably in the palace, how can I stop the people from talking?"
"Even if I intend to execute you, I must find a suitable reason. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious and I cannot bear it."
Ning Yunxi put away her pained expression and responded indifferently.
"Your Majesty, please release me."
Gu Mengzhen sat leisurely on the couch.
"I know your medical skills well. With just a flick of your finger, you can knock someone unconscious and escape successfully. I have no choice but to restrict you like this. I hope my daughter-in-law will understand."
"Don't worry, Xi'er. Father just invited you here to reminisce about the past. There's no other reason for that."
Ning Yunxi solemnly declared.
"You are not my father, and I am not your daughter-in-law."
"Your Majesty, I have no relationship with Gu Nianting."
Gu Mengzhen was arrogant and spoke rudely.
"The more you dislike it, the more I will speak out. Only by making you unhappy can I feel at ease."
"When you were Gu Nianting's plaything, you were loyal and unwavering, never abandoning your heart and ambition. Since following Prince Di Jin, your character has changed drastically. You talk about benevolence and righteousness, but in reality you are hypocritical. Worse still, you abandoned me."
"If I had known this, I would never have allowed you to divorce. You, an ungrateful person, deserve to be trapped in Prince Chen's mansion and be toyed with by others."
Ning Yunxi did not respond to the bad words, adjusted her mood and regained her composure.
"I am willing to be a hostage. Please, Your Majesty, allow my uncle to leave the palace."
Gu Mengzhen curled his lips in disdain.
"You're a hostage?"
"It's not like I haven't suffered losses before, how can I use you?"
He glanced at his "good brother" lying on the ground, his eyes cold and murderous.
"When Fang Zhixuan was in danger, King Di Jin's people did not go crazy and rage. If you were in danger, it would be different."
"I cherish my life and do not want to be ruined. As long as I can preserve my life and reputation, I will eventually make a comeback."
Ning Yunxi's brows were furrowed with sorrow.
"How do you want to be treated?"
Gu Mengzhen looked at her with disdain.
"What do you say?"
Ning Yunxi advised him to be as respectful as possible.
"If you harm the descendants of the Fang clan, you will also be ruined. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Gu Mengzhen was crazy and had an incorrect title.
"You clearly saw through my thoughts. Why are you pretending not to know and giving me this unnecessary reminder?"
"You thought he was Zhuang Shao, deliberately entering the palace to eliminate the trouble. You never expected that he would accidentally kill his own family and regret it deeply."
"I have lost a beloved minister and am the victim. You are the evildoer."
"I forgive Fang Zhixuan for concealing his true identity. I value friendship and loyalty, and I swear to stand up for you and punish the evildoers without mercy."
Ning Yunxi glared angrily.
"Your trick will not succeed."
"I will leave the palace and immediately investigate the truth. I will announce to the world that it was you who murdered Fang Zhixuan."
Gu Mengzhen remained unmoved and felt complacent.
"If you leave the palace, you will be free?"
"Why doesn't Xi'er understand the situation?"
"Now, you are in my hands. You are powerless alone. I can do whatever I want with you."
"I have Fang Zhixuan's family under my control. I'm not afraid that you won't obey me. After they die, you won't live long either."
"After I send you out of the palace, I will make a thorough plan, act decisively, and eradicate the problem completely. I won't give you a single moment to breathe."
"I have a plan. Whether it succeeds or not, we'll see."
Ning Yunxi's almond-shaped eyes were filled with anger and tears.
"Your Majesty, why must you kill them all without mercy?"
"You two are like a family, you've been together for so many years, don't you have any feelings for each other?"
"I advise Your Majesty to stop now. I promise to ensure you great honor and wealth, and to honor you after your death. I will never treat you unfairly."
Gu Mengzhen's expression changed and he was filled with anger.
"Why should I stop?"
"Xi'er said it lightly, but she didn't put herself in their shoes. If it were you, being deceived and schemed against by this flatterer family for over twenty years, would you be willing to give up?!"
"They were the ones who deceived me first. They are unkind. What's wrong with me venting my anger and avenging my brother's shame?"
"He's wrong, you're wrong, and you're the ones who should stop!"
He glanced at Fang Zhixuan, tears in his eyes filled with hatred, and smiled bitterly.
"Fake, hahaha... My brother is fake, and our family love is fake too."
"I gave my all, but he wasn't moved at all."
"More than 20 years, all wasted."
"I am ridiculous as an emperor, and my brother is even more ridiculous."
"My family abandoned me... No one in the world wants me..."
"If my great plan fails, no one in Fang Zhixuan's family will survive!"
Ning Yunxi looked gloomy.
"You could have kept to your proper place, worked diligently to govern the country, fulfilled your promise, remained a loyal subject of Yan, and left a good name for eternity."
"Given the current situation, it's not that Yunyun is accusing you of being disloyal or untrustworthy. Judging by the facts, you have indeed broken your promise to the late emperor."
"You have abandoned me and lost the support of the people. This is all your own fault."
Gu Mengzhen was furious and angry.
"What about breaking your promise to Emperor Mu?"
"Is this my fault?"
"You haven't experienced my suffering, so what qualifications do you have to comment on disloyalty and distrust?"
"Lord Jingshan, I don't need to tell you what kind of character he is; you know it in your heart. Emperor Mu has done everything he can to prevent me from rescuing my brother. Why don't you criticize his selfishness?"
"Could it be that it's just because he's Master Yan?"
"When Lord Yan did something wrong, he didn't need to correct it, nor did he need to accept the criticism of the people? Why do people all over the world favor the Yan clan?"
"What's good about the Yan clan, and what's wrong with me?"
Ning Yunxi briefly explained the reasons.
"If you conquer the world with integrity, no one will blame you for anything wrong."
Gu Mengzhen was confident and righteous.
"I destroyed Xingliang and exterminated those selfish people. How could this not be an act of integrity?"
Ning Yunxi's expression was solemn and cold.
"Your Majesty is sensible. Why do you need me to explain too much?"
"I dare to ask, if the Emperor had pardoned Uncle Shao last year, would you have given up your greed and not seized the throne?"
Gu Mengzhen's dragon eyes were filled with a hint of pride.
"At least, that's what I think."
"My evil deeds were not my own will. They were caused by Emperor Mu and his followers, and forced by the villains of the Gu clan."
"If I had experienced things like you, I would have become a virtuous man."
"You don't approve of me from the bottom of your heart and are too prejudiced against me."
"Since you are stubborn and unrepentant, I, as your elder, must discipline you strictly."
Ning Yunxi is cold and stern.
"Whatever you want to do is your business. Don't use me as an excuse."
Gu Mengzhen raised the corner of his lips and smiled slightly.
"Emperor Yue passed away. I feel very sorry that you didn't get to witness the poignant and beautiful process."
"This time, in order to deal with Fang Zhixuan, I sincerely invite Princess Yuexi to enjoy the scenery and have fun together."
"Come, get the chains and lock him to the wall..."
