Chapter 68 Choice
He never expected that Ye Tian would appear here at this time!
Moreover, it was done in such a domineering and forceful way!
"You, how did you get here?!"
The crown prince's voice trembled slightly, almost uncontrollably.
He felt as if he were being stared at intently by a primordial beast that had crawled out of hell!
That feeling sent chills down his spine and made him feel like his soul had left his body!
Ye Tian ignored the Crown Prince's exclamation.
His gaze fell directly on Li Yunrui, who was lying in the Crown Prince's arms, disheveled, with seductive eyes and a dazed expression.
When he saw Li Yunrui's pitiful and helpless appearance, he was deeply moved.
The anger that had been building up inside him finally erupted!
"brute!"
Ye Tian roared, and his figure blurred, appearing in front of the Crown Prince in an instant like a ghost!
Then, under the prince's horrified and incredulous gaze...
He suddenly reached out and grabbed the prince by the neck, lifting him off the ground like a chick!
"You, you damned, insolent bastard!"
"How dare they drug her?!"
"I think you're tired of living!"
Ye Tian's voice was icy cold and devoid of any emotion!
Every word was like a sharp dagger, piercing the prince's heart!
The prince was being choked by Ye Tian, and he felt difficulty breathing. His vision went black, and a strong feeling of suffocation instantly engulfed him!
He struggled desperately, trying to break free from Ye Tian's grasp.
However, Ye Tian's arm remained as still as an iron clamp!
He could clearly feel the shadow of death approaching him step by step!
"No, no!"
The prince managed to squeeze out a few words, his eyes filled with desperate pleading.
"Spare me, spare my life!"
He doesn't want to die!
He didn't want to die!
He has a bright future ahead of him, and the supreme throne awaits him!
However, when Ye Tian looked at his cowardly and ugly appearance, his eyes were filled with disdain and disgust.
He knew that any pity or mercy towards such scum was superfluous!
Just as he was preparing to go all out and get rid of this good-for-nothing prince completely!
An aged yet authoritative voice suddenly came from outside the door!
"stop!"
Immediately afterwards, a white figure rushed in like lightning and stood in front of Ye Tian!
Indeed, Ye Liuyun arrived just in time!
·············
Ye Liuyun's sudden appearance caused Ye Tian's hand, which was about to snap the prince's neck, to pause slightly.
He turned his head and looked at Ye Liuyun, who was standing in front of him with a solemn expression, and frowned slightly.
"Ye Liuyun, are you going to stop me too?"
Ye Tian's voice was icy cold and filled with undeniable killing intent!
He knew that Ye Liuyun was the guardian of the Qing Kingdom's royal family and would not stand idly by and watch him strangle the crown prince to death.
But so what?!
Today, this incompetent prince is doomed!
No one, not even a little bit, can stop him!
"Young friend Ye Tian, please show mercy."
Looking into Ye Tian's eyes, which were filled with murderous intent, Ye Liuyun felt a chill run down his spine.
He knew that the boy in front of him was a lawless madman!
If he is really pushed to the limit, he might actually kill the crown prince!
At that time, the entire Qing Kingdom will be plunged into chaos!
"Your Highness, although you were in the wrong first..."
Ye Liuyun took a deep breath, trying to make his tone more peaceful.
"But after all, he is the crown prince, the foundation of the nation."
"If something were to happen to him, it would likely cause turmoil in the court and unrest among the people."
"I hope that young friend Ye Tian will consider the bigger picture and spare his life."
Upon hearing this, Ye Tian sneered, his eyes filled with disdain and mockery.
"Prioritizing the overall situation?"
"Heh, Ye Liuyun, you want to talk to me about the big picture?"
"Then let me ask you, when you framed my mother and caused her death, did you ever consider the bigger picture?!"
"When you treated Fan Xian and me as illegitimate children, as thorns in your side, as enemies, constantly making things difficult for us and plotting against us, did you ever consider the bigger picture?!"
"Now, this incompetent prince has actually dared to drug my mother's adopted daughter, who is also my mother, with malicious intent!"
"You actually want me to consider the bigger picture and spare his life?!"
"Don't you think this is ridiculous?!"
Every word Ye Tian uttered was like a sharp knife, piercing Ye Liuyun's heart!
He felt speechless and deeply ashamed!
He knew that Ye Tian was telling the truth.
Indeed, the royal family was at fault back then.
Indeed, they owed Ye Qingmei, Ye Tian, and Fan Xian an enormous favor.
but,
"Young friend Ye Tian, what happened back then was indeed our fault."
Ye Liuyun sighed, his voice tinged with weariness and helplessness.
"But the dead are gone, and the living must go on."
"We can't live in the hatred of the past forever, can we?"
"When will this cycle of revenge end? Why not each take a step back and see a brighter future?"
He tried to use this method to resolve the hatred in Ye Tian's heart.
He tried to use this method to resolve the hatred in Ye Tian's heart.
However, Ye Tian just looked at him coldly, without the slightest wavering in his eyes.
"A vast and boundless world?"
"Heh, Ye Liuyun, do you think that's possible?"
"The hatred for killing one's mother is irreconcilable!"
"Today, I'm determined to kill this incompetent prince!"
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Tian tightened his grip on the prince's neck once more!
"No, no!"
The crown prince felt the suffocating sensation growing stronger and stronger, and his eyes were filled with desperate fear!
He struggled desperately, trying to break free from Ye Tian's grasp.
However, it was all in vain.
At this critical moment!
An old and anxious voice suddenly came from outside the door!
"Stop! Spare his life!"
Immediately afterwards, a hunched figure, surrounded by a group of eunuchs and palace maids, stumbled in!
Indeed, it is Grand Eunuch Hong Sixiang!
Looking at the tense situation before him, where swords were about to clash and the Crown Prince was being choked by Ye Tian and on the verge of death, he was completely terrified!
He never expected that Ye Tian would be so bold! So lawless!
How dare they openly murder the Crown Prince within the Eastern Palace?!
This is practically a rebellion!
"Young Master Ye,"
Hong Sixiang's voice trembled slightly, almost uncontrollably.
"Please, please talk this out calmly, please, please don't act impulsively!"
"Your Highness, he... he is His Majesty's own flesh and blood!"
"If you really kill him, then His Majesty will never let you off!"
He tried to intimidate Ye Tian by using the name of Emperor Qing.
However, Ye Tian only glanced at him coldly, his eyes filled with disdain and disgust.
"Emperor Qing?"
"Heh, do you think I'm afraid of him?"
"Today, even if Emperor Qing himself were to come, he wouldn't be able to stop me from killing this beast!"
His voice was filled with undeniable domineering power and killing intent!
Upon hearing this, Hong Sixiang was utterly devastated!
He knew that he was completely powerless to stop this madman!
He could only watch helplessly as His Highness the Crown Prince died tragically at his hands!
However, at this very moment...
A sudden change has occurred!
Suddenly, Li Yunrui, who had been lying on the bed in a daze with seductive eyes, abruptly opened her eyes!
Her beautiful phoenix eyes still held a hint of bewilderment and desire.
But more than anything, there was a sense of clarity and lingering fear!
It turns out that just now, while Ye Tian was confronting Ye Liuyun and Hong Sixiang, he had silently transferred a stream of pure true energy into Li Yunrui's body!
Furthermore, he secretly slipped a "Hundred Herbs Heart-Clearing Pill," which he had obtained from previous check-ins and which had miraculous detoxifying effects, into her mouth!
The pill melted instantly upon entering the mouth, transforming into a cool current that flowed throughout the body in a flash!
The force raging within her made her lose her senses. The terrifying, burning effects of the medicine gradually dissipated under the impact of this cool airflow.
Li Yunrui has regained consciousness!
She looked at the tense situation before her, where swords were about to be drawn and a conflict could erupt at any moment.
Looking at the Crown Prince, who was on the verge of death with Ye Tian choking him.
Looking at Ye Liuyun, whose face was solemn and as if facing a formidable enemy.
Looking at Hong Sixiang, whose face was full of fear and who was at a loss.
And Ye Tian, who exuded a terrifying killing aura as if he were a god of death descending to earth!
In an instant, she understood what had just happened!
He also realized just how dangerous the situation had been for which he had been rescued!
"Tian'er,"
Li Yunrui's voice was slightly hoarse, and also carried a hint of barely suppressed fear and gratitude!
She suddenly sat up from the bed, threw herself into Ye Tian's arms without thinking, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears!
"Waaaaah, my darling, my darling!"
"Thank you, thank you for saving me."
"If it weren't for you, I, I..."
She was sobbing uncontrollably and could no longer speak coherently.
Ye Tian was caught off guard by Li Yunrui's sudden "embrace".
He could clearly feel the soft and supple body of the woman in his arms, and the deep-seated dependence and gratitude she felt.
He gently patted Li Yunrui's back and softly comforted her, "Mother, it's alright."
"It's all in the past now."
His voice had a reassuring magic.
Li Yunrui gradually calmed down in Ye Tian's arms.
She raised her face, which was still breathtakingly beautiful despite the tears streaming down her face, and gazed at Ye Tian with adoration. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with endless love and adoration!
Then, without hesitation, she kissed Ye Tian's lips!
The kiss was passionate and intense, filled with gratitude, adoration, and a hint of relief at surviving a close call!
Ye Tian was caught off guard by Li Yunrui's sudden kiss.
But he did not push her away.
Because he knew that this woman had truly been terrified.
And indeed, there really is an outlet for venting.
For a long time, the lips are divided.
Li Yunrui nestled breathlessly in Ye Tian's arms, a satisfied and happy smile on her face.
Moreover, she did it willingly!
Looking at the docile beauty in his arms, who was as gentle as a kitten, Ye Tian felt a sense of helplessness.
He knew that the relationship between himself and his crazy foster mother was probably something that could never be resolved.
but,
He didn't want to deal with it anymore.
Sometimes, letting things take their natural course is the best choice.
