"Only when I stand up on my own will I not be fooled by others! I have been waiting for too long! I will not wait any longer!"
The determination and madness in Zhu Minglie's eyes were undisguised. At this moment, he was like a lion king who was forced into a desperate situation and was about to break the boat and make a decisive decision.
"Fourth Master, what do you mean..." Liusu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated after hearing this. He...he wanted...wanted...
Zhu Minglie snorted coldly, put his hands behind his back, looked at the mountainous palace in front of him with a pair of icy eyes, and said——
"Today, I have voluntarily given up the title of prince."
When Liusu heard this, he was shocked. He actually refused to give up his title in order to resist the marriage and for her.
"Then Prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it, what I want is you!"
"Fourth Master, you must not do it. If you give up the title of prince, the blow will follow. The second prince, third prince, and sixth prince, they will not let you go like this, they will definitely..."
"Liu Su..." Zhu Minglie turned around, looked at the people who were worried about him, and said, "I have been immersed for so long, experienced all the wind, frost, snow and rain, endured the contempt and trampling that others can't bear, and survived step by step.
Come here. For this breath, I must stand at the highest peak of power. Now, it will be the time for me to get everything back. The person I am today will be the king tomorrow!"
"You...really want to..." What Liusu had been worried about for a long time was finally going to happen.
Is the bloody turmoil of the Sun Yao Dynasty coming soon? She glanced at the hazy sky, and the low-pressure dark clouds seemed to cover the entire palace.
Zhu Minglie stretched out his hand and held Liusu's shoulder——
"That's right! I will rule the world and control it. On that day, I will let you enjoy all the honors. The me you see in your eyes will not be who I am now. I am the right and I am the world.
When I ascend to the throne, that is the day when blood flows like rivers, I will demand the blood of all those who owe me money! You will see it, you will see all the wails and laughter caused by the struggle for power.
, you will see everything I have!”
"Fourth Master, don't...are you going to kill your brother and your father? If you do this, you will just push yourself into a deeper abyss. What will you do then? Don't let yourself become a victim of the power struggle, okay?
?" Liusu said to him eagerly. She had read the history books and knew that every power dispute in history would not have a good outcome. In any case, she did not want to see Zhu Minglie embark on the road of eternal destruction.
When she asked, he didn't comment, just looked at her and said -
"Lisu, please accompany me on this road!"
"No! I will not accompany you on this road, nor will I let you go on it, because I know this is a road of no return. I want to stop you. I don't want you to die, and I don't want Qiluo to have no father."
Liusu looked at him and said firmly.
"Liu Su, I said, I want the country, and you, I want it too. Originally, with you, I was willing to give up the country, but now I find that if I don't have the country, even you and I will lose it!! So, I have the power to
It must be done!"
"Fourth Master..." Liusu was stunned and took two steps back.
"Come, follow me!"
After saying that, Zhu Minglie got on the horse and pulled Liusu onto the horse without any explanation and put him into his arms.
"Drive..." Raising the whip, the horse galloped away, Zhu Minglie's black hair fluttering in the wind. The red palace wall behind them was getting farther and farther away from them, while the abyss in front was getting closer...
…
Liusu was forced to be involved in a long and never-ending dispute.

Emperor Zhuyue paced back and forth in the royal study, and finally his eyes rested on the jade crown left by Zhu Minglie, his brows were deeply furrowed, and his thin lips were tightly closed.
a long time--
He turned around -
"Li Dequan!"
"The slave is here..."
"Return this jade crown to the fourth prince and tell him that I want him to resume his position as prince. At the same time, take Liusu and her daughter to the Meridian Gate, and send Duo Hai, the daughter of a general who has been a general for many years, directly to the fourth prince's house to get married. If the fourth prince
If you dare to disobey, Liusu mother and daughter... will be beheaded in public!"
"This..." Upon hearing this, Li Dequan hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if you push the fourth master too hastily, isn't it... inappropriate..."
"Follow my decree. Let Liusu and her daughter enter the palace first. Don't make the fourth child suspicious, and then escort them to the Meridian Gate." Emperor Zhuyue waved his hand and said.
"...Yes, I obey your order."
*
"What did you say? The fourth brother took off his jade crown to resist the marriage and stopped being a prince?!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Yetong stood up suddenly.
"Yes, the emperor has just suppressed the news that he has just returned from the palace. Anyone who comes out will be beheaded," Zuo Mu said.
"Why would my father do this?"
"I heard that the Emperor knew that you went to duel with the Fourth Master. He wanted to break up the Fourth Master and Master Liusu, and... he wanted to help you."
"This is absolutely impossible! Zuo Mu, prepare your horses, I am going to the palace to meet my father." Zhu Yetong swung his robe and walked out of the study.
"Thirteenth Master, this... no matter what the emperor's reasons are, isn't it beneficial to you? Master Liusu can no longer be the fourth princess, so your hopes are even greater..."
*
"What did you say?"
"My dear father, I beg you not to force your fourth brother like this." Zhuye Hitomi repeated.
"Thirteen, don't you like tassels? Doesn't it fulfill your wishes if my father does this?" Zhuyue Emperor looked at his beloved son sitting down and said.
"Er Chen... Er Chen likes Liusu, but I don't want to see my fourth brother in such a miserable condition. As for Liusu, I can compete fairly with my fourth brother!"
Zhuyue Emperor sighed after hearing Zhuye Hitomi's words——
"Tong'er, are you so upright and aboveboard, is it a good thing or a bad thing?"
