Zhuque looked at Chen Qi blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
As early as half a month ago, Suzaku had learned from Chen Qi that the other party had the idea of abdicating the throne in favor of someone worthy of his position.
Suzaku tried to persuade him, claiming that the current [Dragon Temple] could not live without him.
But Chen Qi did not give a definite answer at that time, and Suzaku thought that Chen Qi had put away his thoughts.
However, Chen Qi's actions today directly overturned Suzaku's previous fantasy.
Does he really want to quit?
Qinglong and Xuanwu were silent.
As the first group of people to follow Chen Qi, they, Suzaku, and several other generals from the [Dragon Temple] were all brought out by Chen Qi.
Everyone has grown from an ordinary soldier to a general who can stand alone.
All of this is due to Chen Qi's support.
People should never forget their origins.
Chen Qi is their guide, their spiritual support, and their belief.
Now that I see the other party making such a decision, I naturally feel an indescribable feeling in my heart.
Looking at the silent three people, Chen Qi smiled slightly.
"Why are you keeping a straight face?
I haven't even retreated yet, it feels like I'm about to leave."
Chen Qi shook his head helplessly, "After this, let's go have a few more drinks and we won't come back until we're drunk."
After saying that, Chen Qi raised his eyes slightly and looked at Murong Haoying who was not far away.
As for whether he will abdicate, let's not mention it for now. After all, there are still matters that need to be resolved urgently.
Murong Haoying noticed Chen Qi's gaze and raised his head blankly, meeting Chen Qi's eyes.
At this moment, his dream of uniting the two royal families of Yan and Yun to destroy the Chen royal family was completely shattered.
The 400,000 Yanyun army was dead and injured, and even the second emperor of the two royal families of Yan and Yun had no bones left.
A complete defeat!
Murong Haoying Huaying's eyes were blurred and her expression was astonished.
It's like dozens of years old in an instant. After all, decades of hiding one's capabilities and biding one's time and working hard have all been wasted now.
However, at this moment, he felt a sense of relief.
Hundreds of years ago, the Chen royal family was despicable and shameless, and designed to kill many senior members of the Murong family, and then ordered the massacre of the entire Murong family.
This has been a grudge for hundreds of years, and has always been the obsession of the descendants of the Murong family.
Murong Haoying is actually a person who pursues nothing. He is indifferent to fame and wealth, and looks down on the world. Revenge for his family is the only motivation that drives him.
Today, this motivation is gone.
For a moment, he felt a little boring about life.
Just listen to Chen Qi say, "Mr. Murong, although Chen is an outsider, he deeply sympathizes with you and what happened to your Murong family."
"The Chen family did something wrong when they massacred your entire family."
"But now that so much time has passed, you should not be shackled by this hatred all the time. You should have your own life."
When will the injustice be repaid?
As a member of the Chen royal family, it is Chen Qi's responsibility to safeguard the integrity of the Chen royal family.
But from Murong Haoying's perspective, her family was slaughtered and she spent her whole life in poverty, thinking only about revenge.
He is also a poor man.
In Chen Qi's view, Murong Haoying's spirit deserves recognition and respect.
Now it would be easy for Chen Qi to kill Murong Haoying.
But what about the future?
If he really kills Murong Haoying, the hatred between the Chen royal family and the Murong family will continue.
In the next generation, several generations, or even a dozen generations, more innocent people will be sacrificed.
Therefore, why not end it in his generation?
Murong Haoying's eyes once again glowed with a little sparkle.
Of course he heard what Chen Qi meant.
As the saying goes, when will the injustice be repaid?
Hatred, if you keep holding on to it, will become a vicious cycle of poison.
Even if he, Murong Haoying, really wiped out the Chen royal family today.
Maybe in the future there will be descendants of the Chen royal family who will play the role he has today.
If this continues, when will it end?
Although Murong Haoying harbors family hatred, he is not an ignorant person.
How much does he want to get rid of these burdens, watch his children and grandchildren live happily in the house, and share the happiness of a family with the one he loves the most?
However, whenever I think of those ancestors who passed away, I have to do this.
Now, everything he should do has been done.
Although the result was unsatisfactory, he fulfilled his obligation as a descendant of the Murong family.
"Is this what they mean?"
Murong Haoying glanced at the city wall, Chen Yinghao, Chen Xiaotian and others said.
Chen Qi nodded slightly, "No, this is what I mean as the current head of the Chen Royal Family."
Murong Haoying's eyes narrowed and he looked at Chen Qi for a long time.
Then he smiled and said, "That day when I played chess with you, I felt that your future was boundless."
"But I never expected that you would be far beyond my imagination."
"No wonder Ashue falls in love with you."
Chen Qi also smiled for a moment, "Should I understand that you are praising me or hurting me?"
"Of course I'm complimenting you.
but……"
Murong Haoying stared at Chen Qi, "I appreciate your kindness."
"I know that everything I have done is a serious sin. Even if you can let me live, as far as other Chen Royal people are concerned, I definitely don't deserve to live in this world."
Chen Qi frowned, "As long as you are willing to let go of your hatred, I promise to protect you."
Murong Haoying smiled miserably, "How can this hatred be said to be something that can be put down?"
"I once swore in front of the memorial tablets of my ancestors that I would overthrow the Chen royal family and avenge those people who died tragically."
"But in fact, I don't have that ability at all."
Murong Haoying looked up to the sky and sighed, "You are right, when will the injustice be repaid?"
"I only hope that my death today can bring peace to our two families in the future."
"I also don't want more people to be dazzled by the hatred of this generation and die in vain."
Chen Qi: "..."
"But before I die, I hope you promise me one thing."
"What's the matter?"
Murong Haoying glanced at Murong Qingxue at the top with gentle eyes, "Axue doesn't know everything I have done."
"Perhaps she only found out today that she has the blood of the Murong family.
Moreover, her bloodline is very special, it must be a rare bloodline, which will often put her in jail."
"So, I hope you can keep her safe after I leave.
Let her live happily and without worries."
Chen Qi's tone was heavy, "Do you have to do this?"
Murong Haoying nodded, "Now I have nothing to worry about. Even if I am alive, I am still a walking corpse."
"Why don't you let me go down and reunite with those tribesmen, and at the same time persuade them not to be a lonely ghost again."
Chen Qi opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back.
He understood the decision made by Murong Haoying.
Because of him, the Chen royal family was almost wiped out.
The Chen royal family must have hated and feared him. Even if Chen Qi came forward to guarantee it, some people would still have a grudge against them.
Family power disputes are a bottomless abyss, and no one can guarantee what will happen next.
What Murong Haoying thought was that if he could use his own death to exchange for the safety of other tribesmen, especially Axue, that would be the best choice.
Chen Qi was silent for a long time, "Okay, I promise you."
After receiving Chen Qi's consent, Murong Haoying took a long breath and said, "Thank you."
As he spoke, Murong Haoying put his palm on his forehead.
On top of the city wall, Ashue seemed to have discovered something strange about her grandfather.
She ran forward a few steps, leaned on the railing and shouted, "Grandpa! What are you going to do?"
Murong Haoying smiled warmly and said softly, "Axue, I'm sorry..."
"don't want!"
, Ashue shook her head in despair.
"Grandpa, no!"
As Ah Xue screamed, Murong Haoying gathered his true energy and slapped himself on the forehead, then fell to the ground, lifeless.
