Lonely King and Widow

Chapter 693 The Pit Depth Changed to 131 Meters (1)
This bloody scene is simply soul-stirring.

Dong Ji stood at the door, his left and right arms supported by two guards, and he was stunned on the spot.

Blood slipped from Concubine Xie Guifei's fingertips, seeped into her soft sleeves, and slowly fell on the quilt, melting into clusters of hideous flowers.The sharp dagger shone coldly, not only piercing Zhihua Emperor's neck, but also cutting her slender and white fingers.

It was hard to tell whether the scarlet blood belonged to Zhihua Emperor or hers.

Seeing her son, Concubine Xie was also stunned.

In the corner of the bed, there was also a silly Yujia.

They are a family of four, yet they gather in one room in such an embarrassing way, staged the parting of life and death... Such a horrifying scene is too direct to the heart, with a dreamlike sense of unreality.

For a long time, no one spoke.

The wind blew in through the open windows, and the coolness penetrated into the heart and lungs, but there was no way to dispel the bloody smell stagnant in the air, nor could it conceal the bleak ending of this human tragedy.

"Go down!" Song Xi broke free from the guards.

"...Your Highness!" The guards were afraid that he would fall and did not dare to let go.

"I want you to go down!" Song Xi raised his voice, his cold tone was full of orders, and he rarely had a coldness.The guard didn't dare not to listen, but still bit the bullet and helped him sit on the chair first, leaving two crutches behind, then retreated without saying a word, and closed the hall door tightly.

From beginning to end, they did not dare to look up at the bed.

With the door of the palace closed, the air cannot circulate, and the smell of blood is even stronger.

But those inside the house didn't seem to notice it, and didn't move at all.

After a long silence, Song Xi opened his mouth first, "Mother, what is the reason?"

Concubine Xie Guifei seemed to be frightened, and threw away the dagger in a panic. She shook her head again after thinking about it, picked up the dagger, pointed at Emperor Zhihua and said: "You have seen it... I killed your father, I killed it... ...I did the regicide, it has nothing to do with Yujia, and it has nothing to do with anyone else."

How could this kind of cover-up rhetoric deceive Song Xi?
He stared at Concubine Xie's frightened face, frowned, and didn't move, but felt pain in every muscle in his body.Seeing that human tragedy, he fell into silence again.When he opened his eyes again, they had calmed down a lot, as if he had sorted out his emotions from the previous scene.

"Father suddenly fell ill and passed away due to illness!"

A word is neither light nor heavy, but it is decisive.

Concubine Xie was slightly taken aback by the faint wind that came into her ears.

She understood what her son meant, but she also knew that it was not that simple.

"In full view, many people have seen it. Dong Ji... we can't hide it from anyone." With a wry smile, Concubine Xie slowly got up from the couch, every word she spoke was feeble and somewhat incoherent.

"Someone has to take responsibility for the regicide, so that you can stop everyone. Yujia... can't, and this matter can't be known. I am a mother, and I want to protect my child. Therefore, the regicide , it can only be me... Dongji, the mother and concubine have nothing to do. Shut up in Lenggong, or use death as an apology, as long as it is for your brothers and sisters... mother and concubine are fine..."

"Needless to say!" Song Xi looked at her sharply, with impatience between his brows, "I have my own way. Concubine Mother will take Yujia back to the palace first. Leave the rest to me."

It is a gratifying thing that the son has grown up and is sensible.

Concubine Xie looked at Song Xi with sadness, sorrow and joy in her eyes.In her heart, her son has always been the child who was waiting to be fed, and the child who was not as tall as her shoulders...but in the blink of an eye, he has grown into a decisive man.
