The old man lowered his head and knelt on the ground without a word.

"Luo Kun, tell me exactly what happened back then!" Yue w.a.n.g walked up to him and squatted down to look at him.

The old man Luo Kun raised his head. "Your Highness, please listen to my words of advice. Do not pursue the truth of what happened back then. It will only be beneficial to you."

"You are too old, I don"t want to torture you, so I will ask you again, what exactly happened that year?"

Luo Kun raised his eyelids, "Your Highness, you know that you"ll regret this in the future."

"Whether I regret it or not is my business. You don"t need to worry about it. You only need to tell me the truth about what happened that year!"

Luo Kun carefully examined his face. After a long while, he shook his head and said, "No, I won"t say anything."

Yue Yang"s eyes flashed with killing intent, he suddenly stood up and pulled out his sword, his sleeves bringing about a powerful wind, the sword flashed with a cold light and struck straight at Luo Kun"s throat, "If you don"t say it, I will kill you, and you will bring the truth to an end!"

"No," Luo Kun, who had an indifferent expression, suddenly dodged backwards and stumbled to the ground, "Your Highness, I have committed countless sins in this life. Isn"t killing me the same as dirtying your hands?" When His Highness leaves, I will commit suicide. I will not live for even a moment longer, please rest a.s.sured Your Highness. "

"The Luo Family"s Patriarch is notorious for his treachery. Back then, all nine of the six great families were killed, and only you survived unharmed until now. This shows just how skilled you are. Do you think I would believe you? "

"Your Highness, I will absolutely not lie to you. When Your Highness leaves, I will immediately die, but I cannot die at your hands."

"Since we"re both going to die anyway, what"s the difference between dying by someone"s hands?"

"I was originally a deeply sinned person, even if I was late, it would still be difficult for me to redeem the sins on my own body, but I can"t let Your Highness carry those … "Shameless."

"If I kill you as a sinner, how can I be tainted?"

"Your Highness," Luo Kun"s body trembled as he knelt on the ground. "Please listen to me, Your Highness. I won"t harm you."

Yue Yang frowned, he then raised his head and looked at the sky, "It"s already late, if I don"t go back now, Yun Yao will be worried." After he finished speaking, he thrust the sword forward. It was about to stab into Luo Kun"s throat.

Luo Kun"s face turned pale with fright as he struggled to retreat. "Your Highness … "Your Highness …" He gripped the sword tightly with both his hands. His fingers were almost cut off by the blade. Blood immediately dripped down. Luo Kun took the sword from Yue Yang"s hands and placed it across his neck. "Your Highness, the sins of this life cannot be repaid. I am willing to suffer eternal torture in h.e.l.l. Your Highness, the truth of the past is no longer important, you should cherish the present, and Wen Wen

"Princess Xian is living a good life." With that, he slashed his sword across and cut his throat, falling to the ground with a loud thud.

Yue w.a.n.g abruptly took two steps back. When he saw that Luo Kun"s body was bleeding profusely, he couldn"t help but feel that it was particularly dazzling.

Wei Yiyi and Yun Chun, who had heard the commotion at the door, hurriedly walked in, "Mistress, are you alright?"

Yue w.a.n.g stared at Luo Kun"s corpse, the coldness surrounding it oppressing the hearts of the people. After a long while, he slowly restrained his aura and said, "Take him down and cremate him."

"Yes."

Mu Yunyao hadn"t seen King Yue return for a long time, so she leaned on the window and waited. She was extremely tired during the day, so she couldn"t help but fall asleep as she waited and waited.

When King Yue returned to the courtyard, he saw that Luo Kun had refused to speak of the truth. The hatred and anger he felt in his heart grew even more intense. His eyes turned slightly red.

The unswerving determination in his brows deepened as King Yue moved faster and faster. His clothes flapped in the wind as he walked. Luo Kun"s performance today had further confirmed his mother"s death. However, he still felt a sense of frustration.

Unknowingly, he had arrived outside of Mu Yunyao"s room. Warm candlelight seeped out from the door and the window, causing his furious mood to suddenly become slightly pacified. He pushed open the door and walked in, his steps very light.

Mu Yunyao was currently sprawled on the table by the window, her hair scattered to the side of her body, making her look very delicate.

Yue w.a.n.g took slow steps forward, and was about to take the cloak to help her cover it when he saw Mu Yunyao abruptly awaken.

"Master Four?" Mu Yunyao was originally not in deep sleep, so when she heard the slightest movement, she woke up. After discovering that it was King Yue, she let go of her defenses.

"Did I wake you?"

Mu Yunyao smiled as she shook her head. "I"m fine, but what happened at the Yi River? Why are you back so late?"

"I ran into a person and was delayed for a while."

Mu Yunyao sized up King Yue before her smile suddenly froze. "Fourth Master"s clothes …"

Yue Yang lowered his head to look at the hem of his robes. A drop of blood was imprinted on it. Looking at the bloodstain, the image of Luo Kun on the verge of death appeared in his mind. He couldn"t help but feel anxious.

Mu Yunyao felt that something was wrong with King Yue"s mood. She hurriedly stood up and walked over to hold his hand. "Fourth Master, what"s wrong?"

Yue w.a.n.g suddenly pulled Mu Yunyao into his embrace, a hint of weakness appearing on his usually resolute forehead. "Yunyao, I"ve seen Luo Kun."

"Luo Kun?" Mu Yunyao thought carefully for a while. She had no impression of this person. Many years ago, the Luo Family, which Luo Kun belonged to, was the strongest of the six n.o.ble families. The Luo Family, which Luo Kun belonged to, was the strongest of the six n.o.ble families, and the Luo Family, which was the strongest of the six n.o.ble families.

"

Hearing King Yue"s words, Mu Yunyao suddenly thought of the cause of Empress Wei"s death. "Your Highness, did you find Luo Kun to ask about what happened to the Empress at the Imperial Palace?"

"That"s right, but he didn"t say anything." Yue w.a.n.g carefully controlled his strength, afraid that he would use too much strength to hug Mu Yunyao, "Yao`er, why did Imperial Aunt advise me not to search for the truth? Why is it that Luo Kun would rather die than explain …" Mu Yunyao opened her mouth and felt waves of anxiety and anger coming from Duke Yue"s body. She couldn"t help but reach out and stroke his back, "When Fourth Master was determined to investigate this matter from the past, didn"t he already antic.i.p.ate this kind of situation? I looked into my own life and experienced so many obstacles, not to mention four

This grandpa is going to investigate the truth. "

Yue w.a.n.g paused slightly. Mu Yunyao continued, "The Empress is the mother of a nation, and it also involves the death of ten princes from the imperial harem. It also involves the annihilation of six great families … The scope of the matter was fearsome, and the only way to investigate it was to make things more difficult. However, the Fourth Master that I know isn"t such a weak person …

If you want to investigate, you will eventually find out. "

Mu Yunyao"s gentle voice that carried a hint of a smile flowed to the side of his ear, slowly soothing the violence and anxiousness in his heart. "Yao`er, it"s great that you"re here."

Mu Yunyao couldn"t help but burst out laughing, "Master Fourth still has the mood to tease me. It seems that you"ve already thought it through?"

"Yes, no matter how cruel the truth was, no matter how many difficulties we encounter in the investigation, I will do everything in my power to find out the truth of the matter." "Alright, I will accompany Master Si."
