1707 The End of the King 2

Zhou Huaijin was taken aback by the scene before him.

He had never expected his Elder Brother to show up and take such drastic action, given that he was weak and seemingly incapable of rebellion. He was also surprised by the depth of his brother’s grudge against the King.

Initially, Zhou Huaijin had planned to simply remove the King from the throne and relocate him elsewhere, as he still saw him as his father. Like his Elder Brother, he was too kind to take his life.

At least not with his own hands.

But now he saw that his Elder Brother had thought through the situation thoroughly.

His words about being the “bad one” here indicated that he was prepared to take responsibility for the King’s death.

While the outcome was unexpected, Zhou Huaijin felt that it was reasonable. The King had committed sins and was now paying for them.

He didn’t feel much emotion about the situation, seeing it as simply the result of the King’s actions.

The silence in Weiyang Palace was deafening after Lord Yan’s attack.

Although he was initially driven by his long-standing resentment towards the King, he did not continue his assault on the weakened monarch.

Lord Yan was ultimately a kind-hearted man at his core, and he could not bring himself to cause further harm. Despite his restraint, the wound Lord Yan inflicted had reached a critical point.

Blood continued to flow from the King’s body, and there was no one there to offer aid. Even the imperial army failed to arrive in time to save him.

As the King’s life began to slip away, he turned to face Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan, recognizing their true intentions.

He had lived a life of glory and privilege, but in the end, he was felled by his own son, a child born of lowly origins.

It was a cruel irony, and he could not help but reflect on his many years of existence as he drew his last breath.

He had planned to take the throne when he was a young man, so he could live a long life after he became older.

No one next to him had ever meant him any good, apart from Jiang Shuang, who once loved him and thought about him.

Honored Princess Jing did all for her own son’s sake and her own sake for the Queen. She had never liked him or considered him.

“The Queen, I miss you so badly. I am here to come to you.”

“…”

“The Queen… the most regretful thing I have done in my life is what I did to you,” the King continued.

“…”

“Only you treated me well. I will drop all the desire and spend my life with you peacefully,” he said, thinking of Jiang Shuang’s face and his deep love for her.

Zhou Huaijin frowned, disapproving of his father’s words. “Zhou Sheng! How dare you mention the Queen!” he exclaimed.

” “…”

“You have no rights to meet her underground.”

“….”

“She is still alive. She will not keep you company on the way to your hell!”

“….”

“You are ruthless and cold, and you can only go to hell alone. Be nice in your next life!”

Zhou Huaijin snapped.

What?

Was Jiang Shuang still alive?

“Where is she? I want to see her, I need to speak with her!” The King shouted loudly.

He had never thought that Jiang Shuang would still be alive.

Zhou Huaijin reached out and forcefully pushed down the dagger in the King’s chest, causing blood to burst out in every direction.
