1706: The End of the King 1

The End of the King 1

The King, who had been shouting frantically like a madman, suddenly stopped. 2

The next moment…

His pupils widened in disbelief, and he gasped in fright as he looked ahead.

As Gu Chaoyan looked around, she could sense the blood in the Weiyang Palace

Blood dripped from the corner of the King's mouth and stained his robe, but the members of the Shadow Door did not move, as Zhou Huaijin had not given the order.

The King couldn't believe that he would lose both his throne and his life in one fell swoop.

He tried to grip the hand holding the dagger, but he was too weak.Struggling to see who was taking his life, he blinked away the blur and recognized the face of his attacker.

The King's widened eyes locked onto the figure before him. "It's you!" he exclaimed.

He was completely shocked and unable to believe what had happened.

The figure was his eldest son, Zhou Huaiyan, born to a low-class maid and therefore deemed unworthy of the imperial family. The King never considered him as part of the royal family and thought he didn't deserve to be his son. Nevertheless, Zhou's mother spared his life, an act of mercy that the King believed was enough. He did not treat any of his sons badly and even felt he was kinder to Zhou than to the others.

But now, it was Zhou who had taken his life. The King couldn't fathom how this could have happened.

Zhou, on the other hand, felt a sense of relief seeing his father's reaction. He felt like he had taken his revenge.

He was the King's son, but he had lived a bitter and miserable life because of the man standing before him who he called his father.

" "…"

He had thought that if he were just a commoner's son, he would have lived a better life.

He did not even need to see how the servants behaved or to endure terrible food. He did not have to worry that he would be poisoned by one sip of tea or marry a spy who would be killed when she was deemed useless.

His life had been ruined by this father of his.

So before he died, he was going to take revenge that he had been holding for dozens of years.

Looking at the King, Zhou Huaiyan suddenly got excited and started laughing. "You're finally dying. You are an evil person, and now you are dying. No one is going to torment me anymore!"

Zhou Huaiyan stopped and looked at the King in disbelief. "And you should have died long before!"

"…"

"But for me sneaking into the court through the chaos, a kind man like Eighth Brother would not have killed you. I am glad I am here. I can be the villain here!"

Zhou Huaiyan held a grudge towards the King.

"You shouldn't…" The King wanted to defend himself.

Zhou Huaiyan's face changed. "Shut up, shut up now! You have no right to say anything, never!"
