Chapter 3904 30. Moral Education Makes the Country Prosperous (Wu Xuanyue Adds Stab to the Mound)

Not long after Wu Xuanhua left, Shangguan Zhuhou was so angry that he was shaking all over and spurted out a mouthful of blood. When his confidants outside the door entered the room and saw this scene, they were really scared.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Are you okay? Someone, come, someone, quickly summon the imperial physician to the palace..."

Just as his confidant was anxious to summon someone, Shangguan Zhuhou put his trembling hand on the other's shoulder and whispered: "Don't call the imperial physician... I know my body best... You... go find Master Nalan now... Tell her that I have something urgent to ask her..."

Hearing this, the confidant was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Xuanwu Xuanyue had to be announced at this juncture. While he was thinking about this question, Shangguan Zhuhou coughed and shouted, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up!"

The confidant finally came to his senses. He didn't dare to ask more questions, let alone neglect him, and hurried to find Wu Xuanyue.

After Wu Xuanyue received the order, she was not surprised at all, because this was the result of her brilliant calculations.

"I know, I'll go right away."

At this moment, Wu Xuanyue was reading a military book in the house. Seeing the other party's anxious look, she was not anxious at all, but responded to the other party slowly.

"Don't worry, Nalan Zhenshi, my Majesty is very anxious right now, just follow me to Changchun Palace."

Wu Xuanyue glanced at the other person, and then made a look to Shan Lingyao. Shan Lingyao immediately understood, and then he found a cloak in the house and slowly put it on Wu Xuanyue.

"Okay, I'll go there with Neiguan He right away."

As he walked along the way, Eunuch He's feet were flying and he was extremely panicked.

Wu Xuanyue looked at them coldly and walked with Shan Lingyao, but he also quickened his pace to keep a distance from the person in front.

When they arrived at the gate of Changchun Palace, the man raised his hand to invite Wu Xuanyue into the hall. Just when Shan Lingyao wanted to follow him into the hall, the other party raised his hand to block Shan Lingyao's way.

"Miss Shan, please stay. Some things should be handled by your family's Zhenshifu."

Shan Lingyao looked up and met Wu Xuanyue's gaze. The other party's meaning was very clear. There was no need for Shadow Island's opinion.

Wu Xuanyue looked back in shock, and after thinking for a moment, she smiled and nodded, indicating that Lingyao should not worry.

Wu Xuanyue walked into the room alone. At this moment, Changchun Palace was dark.

"What's going on in this room? Why isn't anyone lighting a light?"

"I just had someone turn off a few lights."

"What's going on? What happened to His Majesty the Dragon King?"

Wu Xuanyue's mind was as clear as a mirror, but she pretended to be concerned and slowly walked towards the direction of the voice.

Following the sound in the dark is a bit difficult, but it is not a difficult task for Wu Xuanyue.

Gradually, Shangguan Zhuhou's figure came into Wu Xuanyue's sight. At this moment, Shangguan Zhuhou was sitting alone on the steps, his whole body curled up, his head supported by one hand, in great pain.

"You are finally here..."

"What happened? Why is His Majesty the Dragon King so negative?"

Wu Xuanyue deliberately quickened her pace and approached Shangguan Zhuhou. Looking at his appearance, she felt mixed emotions. This person was not completely bad, but he did make people wary.

Aren't all powerful officials like this? They are ruthless and will do anything to achieve their goals.

But then again, people in this position often have no choice.

"You told me before that if I joined forces with you, you would ensure that my descendants would prosper and continue the glory of the Quan family... Is this true?"

Shangguan Zhuhou did not answer Wu Xuanyue's question, but asked the other party directly.

Hearing this, Wu Xuanyue was stunned at first, and probably already knew what had happened to the other party.

"Yes... that's right, but Your Majesty the Dragon King, you have to tell me what happened?"

"That madman Wu Xuanhua...he has gone mad...I can't control him at all!"

Shangguan Zhuhou slowly raised his head in horror, trembling all over, as if he had experienced some great disaster.

"My third brother... has been here?"

"Well... I wanted to have a good talk with him, but... but... how did he become like this?"

Shangguan Zhuhou was extremely disappointed and roared in pain.

"How did he become like this... Hehe~ Good question, how did he become like this? This is something I need to ask Your Majesty the Dragon King~ After all the scheming, did you really get what you wanted?"

After hearing this, Shangguan Zhuhou was stunned again. It seemed that he had misjudged his image in Wu Xuanyue's heart, which led to the other party's sarcasm when he was down.

"How can you say that to me... I... I..."

When talking about his painful spot, the scars were exposed again, and he became even more embarrassed.

"Alright, Your Majesty the Dragon King, you have tasted the bitterness. I want to ask you, did your self-righteous plan backfire on you in the end? You treated people as if they were not human beings, you were ruthless to them, but you tried to control them with emotions. Whether it was my third brother or the people in the Quan family, didn't your Shangguan family control them with this method? Now, you have been backfired by power, and I don't know how this will end, right?"

"You... which side are you on? Did you agree to join forces just to humiliate me? And... why do you speak so similarly to your third brother?"

Shangguan Zhuhou was immediately extremely upset. He was injured twice, and the same problem was brought up again by the other party and tortured to death. Who could bear this?
"Hahaha~ That's for sure. They were all raised in a martial arts school. They have the same master, so naturally they speak in the same tone."

"Are you still happy? Seeing me like this, isn't this taking advantage of my misfortune?"

"That's not the case. What are you thinking about? I understand everything. Don't worry. Since I have joined forces with you, I will naturally protect your precious son. However... I just want to ask you one question. If the time comes when you really have to choose between your eldest son and your second son, what will you choose?"

"What should I choose? That's a good question. As a parent, we naturally hope that our sons can be safe and happy, and live in peace... I certainly don't want to see them killing each other!"

"So, as parents, what did you do? When you and your brother abandoned your family ties and fought for power, did you ever think about setting a good example for your children in the future?"

"I... I had no choice about the life or death of the two of them at that time... How could I think so far ahead?"

"Don't make excuses for your own lack of moral integrity. Maybe you had your own difficulties at that time, but when you chose to fight for the throne, you should have realized that your children would follow your example, disregarding family affection and morality, and killing each other just for power..."
