The clear and powerful voice spread throughout Langkun Hall!
Everyone watched this scene in silence, holding their breath unconsciously.
It was enough for the others to collude with Jiang Yucheng and Shangguan Wan to frame Di Ji. After all, they all had their own desires, but Mu Qinghe was different.
Everything he has today is thanks to Di Ji.
Without Di Ji, there would be no Mu Qinghe, the deputy commander of the Black Cavalry Army today!
After all, he was one of Di Ji's most trusted confidants!
If he really betrayed Di Ji, he would not be able to escape death today, and he would also be reviled after his death!
But if he hadn't, what happened to Di Ji's death that year
Countless pairs of eyes were all focused on Mu Qinghe!
Mu Qinghe raised his eyes and looked at the woman standing on the nine steps, his mind filled with chaos.
turn out to be
It's really her!
No wonder he felt inexplicably familiar with her since he first saw her in Yaochen Kingdom.
Later, he worried about her affairs several times.
Even if he noticed that she seemed to be overly cold and polite to him, he didn't think much about it.
He thought it was just because of the similar eyebrows.
But in fact, now that I think about it, the similarity is not in appearance, but in breath and demeanor!
He glanced sideways and glanced at the red demon on his shoulder.
"You already knew that, right?"
The red demon's eyes flashed slightly and he buried his head under his wings.
In fact, it didn't mean to hide it from him, but...
But Mu Qinghe didn't mean to blame it. Instead, he slowly let out a breath.
The next moment, he raised his feet and walked forward, stood in the middle, then raised his head slightly again and looked at Chu Liuyue who was standing directly in front.
Chu Liuyue thought that something was holding her, and her whole body became tense.
She could regard the betrayal and revenge of others as a passing thing, but she still felt a trace of unwillingness towards Mu Qinghe in her heart.
She didn't understand where the taciturn, stubborn but loyal Mu Qinghe had gone.
So today, she only wants one answer!
She wanted him to say it himself!
After a brief stalemate, Mu Qinghe suddenly threw the sword aside with a crisp sound.
Chu Liuyue's eyebrows moved slightly.
Immediately, he saw Mu Qinghe taking off his armor again!
Because today was Shangguan Wan's wedding and enthronement ceremony, everything was very grand. Even Mu Qinghe was fully armed, wearing the highest-grade armor of the Black Cavalry Lieutenant General.
At this time, he took off the heavy black armor and instantly felt much lighter.
It was as if a heavy burden was suddenly lifted.
Immediately, he faced Chu Liuyue and knelt down!
His knees hit the ground with a muffled sound.
"Your Highness."
He suddenly bent down and kowtowed, his forehead resting on the cold jade slab, a chill that almost spread throughout his body!
"Mu Qinghe betrayed His Highness and served as a minister in vain. Please give him death!"
Every word, every word, clearly!
No one present expected that Mu Qinghe would react like this.
He made no arguments, no complaints, no protests.
In just one sentence, he admitted his betrayal so frankly and frankly!
Under the current circumstances, isn't this asking for death?
As long as he says that he did not betray, or that he was forced, there may be a way to survive!
But - he didn't!
Two years ago, who would have thought that Mu Qinghe, whom Di Ji trusted the most, would be where he is today!
If he remains loyal to Di Ji, after today, when Di Ji takes over the imperial power and ascends the throne as emperor, he will be a first-rate hero!
pity
Jiang Yucheng glanced at him, and a dark light flashed across his eyes, but it was fleeting, and soon he lowered his eyes, hiding the look in his eyes.
Chu Liuyue looked at Mu Qinghe who was kneeling below, her eyes calm and condensed.
Everyone looked at her.
Now, Mu Qinghe should have only one dead end left.
In the silence, Chu Liuyue spoke again and asked:
"Is everything you say right now true?"
"yes."
"No lies, no hard reasons?"
"none."
"Are you willing to die?"
Mu Qinghe was still kneeling there, with his head resting on his head before. After hearing these words, he finally straightened up.
His face was calm.
"Yes. Please grant your permission, Your Highness."
Every word and every sentence expresses the desire to die!
Chu Liuyue paused and suddenly smiled.
"The last time you asked me to help you, it was because you wanted to go to the Great Wilderness."
At that time, although her status was respected, her power in the court was unstable, so Mu Qinghe took the initiative to enlist in the army in Dahuangze to earn military power for her.
She disagreed at first. The Great Wasteland was so dangerous. She would have to suffer a lot if she went there. More importantly, she might not even be able to save her life. She wandered between life and death all day long. If she was not careful, she would stay forever. There it is.
However, that was the only time that Mu Qinghe did not obey her order and knelt outside her palace for a long time.
At that time, he also said - please fulfill it, Your Highness.
I just didn't expect that when I heard these words a few years later, it would be him begging for death.
When Mu Qinghe heard this, his heart seemed to be stabbed hard by something, and he was trembling slightly from the pain.
His expression turned gloomy for a moment, but he quickly lowered his head.
"Please, Your Highness—"
The remaining two words were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them out.
Chu Liuyue looked at him and sighed softly.
"In that case—"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw the red demon waving its wings anxiously on Mu Qinghe's shoulders.
It flew around Mu Qinghe, coming closer from time to time and emitting rapid chirps, as if it was saying something.
Or maybe he's trying to persuade you.
But Mu Qinghe remained unmoved.
Seeing this, the red demon was so anxious that he turned around and flew towards Chu Liuyue!
Everyone saw a ball of green flames streaking through the air, and the next second, they saw Mu Qinghe's green bird flying in front of Chu Liuyue!
It flapped its wings and looked at Chu Liuyue nervously and anxiously, as if it wanted to say something, and tears kept welling up in its anxious eyes.
Chu Liuyue's heart moved and she stretched out her hand.
"Red demon!"
Before her hand touched the red demon, Mu Qinghe suddenly realized something. He stood up and shouted, his brows furrowed and his tone warning.
The red demon's body trembled slightly, but he still fell into Chu Liuyue's hands.
Big tears rolled down, wetting its fluffy feathers, and fell into Chu Liuyue's palm, feeling slightly hot.
Chu Liuyue could see clearly that there was a look of grievance and pleading in its eyes.
No, no!
At some point, Tuanzi also came out and squatted on Chu Liuyue's shoulders, watching this scene.
Rarely, this time it didn't make a fuss with the red demon. It hesitated for a moment, but flew over and surrounded the red demon, seemingly at a loss.
After a while, it clumsily and carefully raised its head.
-do not Cry.
