On the second day of the Mid-Autumn Night Banquet, I heard that the Crown Princess was in a good mood after seeing her family and began to go out for a walk. Those who had the same doubts as Beichen Mofeng had their doubts dispelled at this moment.
In Prince Gong's Mansion, Beichen Mofeng was sitting in the study, with a stack of banknotes and a letter in front of him.
In fact, since last night, he has been keeping the same action, sitting in the study room with a gloomy look on his face.
Mu Yunsang has been captured. Beichen Mofeng must be vigilant. I am afraid that if he escapes in the future, it will be difficult for him to reach the sky. In other words, it will be difficult for him to see her again in the future. If he wants to have her, it will be difficult for him to reach the sky.
It’s a fantasy.
Now that his power has been eroded by an unknown evil force, it has gradually weakened, and his father's attitude has begun to waver. In the past, he always favored him. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that his father wanted to make him his leader.
The prince is just restricted by the rules of his ancestors and cannot be broken.
But in recent months, he had asked to see him several times in a row, but his father had refused with various reasons. It was clear that he was alienating him again.
He couldn't figure it out. It seemed that in just half a year, his power had plummeted, and he was getting further and further away from the throne of the emperor.
He had to give up the woman to Beichen Mofeng just because he was the prince.
He had to give up the throne, just because he was the legitimate son?
He was unwilling to give in, too much. What he wanted, he could get it easily without doing anything. And he was obviously the eldest son. He was obviously better than the prince in literary skills and military skills since he was a child. Even his father personally praised him as the eldest son.
He was so talented as an emperor that he even secretly promised to break the ancestral rules and make him the crown prince once Emperor Gaozu died.
Since he couldn't give it, he shouldn't have promised it at that time.
After making a promise, the emperor should not give up on him halfway.
"Your Majesty!"
There was a knock at the door, and Beichen Yixuan's eyes were full of evil, as if he wanted to cut into pieces the person who suddenly knocked on the door and interrupted his thoughts.
"roll!"
There was a cold shout, and there was no movement at the door. Shaoqing, someone pushed the door open. He looked up and saw a delicate face. She was his princess and cousin. She was his uncle's eldest daughter. She and he were childhood sweethearts.
The big one is called Mei Xian'er.
"What happened to me?"
She didn't seem to be afraid of Beichen Yixuan's sinister expression, or maybe she was used to it. No one in the world understood Beichen Yixuan better than her.
In front of others, he always has a smile on his face.
But there was a demon living in his heart, a demon that was devouring his reason all the time.
What he wants will always be hidden in his heart. The more he wants, the bigger this demon will grow. Now this inner demon has happened to the people in his hands one after another, and his power has become weaker and weaker.
He began to whip him, abuse him, and ridicule him every day.
He was swallowed up by his inner demons. The more he wanted, the more he couldn't get it.
The less you can get it, the more rampant your inner demons will be.
Mei Xian'er couldn't bear to see him tormenting her like this. She knew that after returning from the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet yesterday, he had been locked in the study and could not leave even an inch, so she came.
He told her to get out, but she knew he didn't mean it, he just felt too painful and uncomfortable.
Looking at Mei Xian'er's face, he was filled with resentment, jealousy, and anger, and finally gradually calmed down.
He closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and finally his eyes returned to calmness.
"I'm fine, why are you here?"
"Sir, I am incompetent and cannot help you solve your problems."
Mei Xian'er blamed herself and said how much she felt sorry for him. Every time she saw him like this, she felt worse than he did.
"Xian'er, come here."
"Master!" Mei Xian'er walked to Beichen Yixuan with a heavy face. Beichen Yixuan reached out and pulled her to his knees, holding her gently.
Mei Xian'er nestled quietly in his chest, listening to the ups and downs of his chest, which was very chaotic.
"Sir, do you have any clues about the series of murders?"
"I can probably guess, but it's hard to say for sure."
"Sir, could he be the prince?"
Beichen Yixuan was silent for a moment, wondering if it was okay.
Mei Xian'er raised her head from his arms, her eyes blazing: "If Master Fan just says a word, my father and grandfather will go through fire and water for you without hesitation. The emperor is old and indulges in wine and sex all day long. He is drunk in the gentle land. The last time he entered the palace
I went to see my mother-in-law. The mother-in-law and my concubine said that the emperor treats her now just like he treated the queen in the past. Sir, if the emperor suddenly changed his attitude towards me, something must have happened. If I don’t want to wait any longer, all
Just a word from me."
The corners of Beichen Yixuan's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a lot of worry in his smile.
He originally placed his hope in the emperor, hoping that the emperor would depose the prince and make him the crown prince.
But now the emperor's attitude has become unpredictable, and he has no confidence in his heart.
Not to mention that he is not yet strong enough to kill the king and seize the throne. Even if he already has it, he has to guard against Demon King Mountain.
If that murderer is really the Ghost King on Devil's Mountain, then why does he target his people everywhere, and is ruthless and ruthless?
And is there any inevitable connection between this incident and his father's neglect of him?
Is there any connection between Demon King Mountain and Beichen Mofeng?
If these problems are not solved for a day, he will be unable to take action.
The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind, so how can he not do anything?
"Xian'er, I want to go to Devil King Mountain once."
The answer must be found out after all. Instead of just waiting for death, he wanted to go to the Ghost King and the Demon Lord and ask his people whether they were the ones who killed him.
When Mei Xian'er heard this, her face turned pale for a moment.
"I don't allow my cousin to go."
During these years of marriage to Beichen Yixuan, she changed her title to him, calling him father and calling herself concubine. However, only when she was extremely emotional, she would call him cousin as before.
He held her hand: "I know you are worried."
She withdrew her hand and said resolutely: "No matter what, I won't allow my cousin to go up the mountain in person. Not to mention that all the people on Devil King Mountain are not ordinary people. I don't know whether my cousin's trip will be a surprise or a danger.
It is said that the road up the mountain is difficult to find. I heard that the whole mountain is full of miasma. The emperor once sent three thousand elite soldiers. What happened? Less than half of them came back. Without even a single soldier on Devil King Mountain, three thousand gold soldiers were already defeated.
Two thousand people are trapped to death, no matter what, I will not allow you to go to a place like that."
"Xian'er."
He called her, his tone as firm as her attitude.
Mei Xian'er's eyes were slightly red, and she choked with sobs: "Do you have to go?"
"I have to go."
"Well, I swore on the day we got married that I would be with you life and death. If you insist on going, you must take me with you."
Beichen Yixuan's expression froze.
The corner of his mouth curved in a warm arc, and he kissed Mei Xian'er's forehead: "Okay, let's go together. If you can't come out after you go in, it's fitting that you and I are destined to be the same year as me, Xian'er."
Even if you die in the same month and on the same day, you will have no regrets in life."
