Chapter 230 Gu Zhixiao stops Mo Jingheng.
Mo Jingheng frowned, "What do you want to say?"
Gu Zhixiao looked at Mo Jingheng with tears in his eyes, "You promised me that you would not step into this imperial power again, but what are you doing now?"
Mo Jingheng frowned slightly. He had promised to stay with her forever and not get involved in this power struggle, but his mother died for him, so he couldn't just do nothing.
"Xiao'er, I promise you, if I take that position, you will be the queen, and no one can replace you."
"But what will you do if you fail?" Gu Zhixiao shouted.
Mo Jingheng said seriously: "The Regent is dead, Mo Jingxuan is nothing, and Mo Jingsu is now in my pocket, why did I fail?"
Gu Zhixiao shook his head in disappointment and asked, "Why did you become like this?"
"I've always been like this. Is this the first day you've known me?" Mo Jingheng asked back.
Just as he finished speaking, a guard came in respectfully, "Third Prince, General Guarding the Nation..."
Mo Jingheng glanced over fiercely, and the guard immediately shut his mouth.
When Gu Zhixiao heard that it was his father, he looked at the guard and asked, "What happened to my father?"
The guard didn't say anything. Gu Zhixiao suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and looked at Mo Jingheng, "You attacked my father?"
Mo Jingheng looked serious and didn't say anything. Gu Zhixiao grabbed Mo Jingheng's hand and stood up, looking at him with tears in her eyes, "What happened to my father?"
Mo Jingheng knew that he couldn't keep this secret, so he said, "I already gave him a chance, but he didn't cherish it."
"You..." After hearing this, Gu Zhixiao's body trembled violently, he stepped back, and then immediately turned around and was about to run out of the house.
"Stop her." Mo Jing snorted and ordered loudly.
After hearing this, the guard at the door immediately stopped Gu Zhixiao who was running out.
"Get out of the way, I want to go back." Gu Zhixiao said coldly.
Mo Jingheng's voice sounded majestically from behind, "The Third Imperial Concubine is sick, why don't you take her back quickly? No one can let her out without my order."
"Yes."
When the two guards were about to pull Gu Zhixiao away, Gu Zhixiao quickly dodged and turned to look at Mo Jingheng, "Mo Jingheng, I want to go back to see my father."
"You can't go anywhere." Mo Jingheng said seriously.
Gu Zhixiao, however, pushed the guards aside and tried to leave regardless. The guards standing in front of him didn't dare to move.
Seeing this, Mo Jingheng strode forward and grabbed Gu Zhixiao's wrist, his eyes filled with impatience, "The general is dead, it will be useless even if you go back."
After hearing this, Gu Zhixiao felt like he was struck by a bolt from the blue. His head started buzzing, even his eyes became dazed, and his body went limp on the spot.
Mo Jingheng quickly held Gu Zhixiao's waist.
"Don't touch me!" Gu Zhixiao reacted and pushed Mo Jingheng away loudly, his body hitting the door frame.
Gu Zhixiao's tears flowed down, and she looked at Mo Jingheng with disappointment and resentment, "Did you kill him?"
Mo Jingheng looked at Gu Zhixiao who didn't care about his image. He didn't intend to kill the general, but he was a tough nut to crack.
Looking at Gu Zhixiao's distraught expression, his heart was a little throbbing, but power still overcame his soft heart. This was his one and only chance. If he won, he would stand on the supreme position. If he lost, he would be a sinner trampled upon by everyone.
Mo Jingheng finally hardened his heart and said, "Now that the general is dead, he only has you as his daughter, and you are my wife. The soldiers under the general can only serve me."
As soon as Mo Jingheng said this, Gu Zhixiao sneered, "Humph, you are simply dreaming if you want my father's men to support you to ascend the throne."
Mo Jingheng frowned, "What do you mean?"
Gu Zhixiao looked at Mo Jingheng disappointedly and said, "Mo Jingheng, I thought you had changed, but I didn't expect that you were just forbearing. Your ambition has never diminished from beginning to end. Ever since Su Qingqing betrayed you, you have tried every means to please me and coax me, hum..."
Gu Zhixiao shook his head and continued, "I was so blind that I thought you were sincere to me. If I had known this, I shouldn't have taken you back when your life was hanging by a thread during the suppression of bandits."
With a loud slap, Mo Jingheng slapped Gu Zhixiao hard on the face.
Gu Zhixiao covered her face with her hands without any emotion and laughed, "Oh, I, Gu Zhixiao, was really blind. I was schemed by my own husband and harmed my own father. It's really ridiculous!"
Mo Jingheng shouted expressionlessly, "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you see that the Third Imperial Concubine is having a hysterical attack?"
The guards standing there immediately stepped forward to ask Gu Zhixiao to go back, but unexpectedly, Gu Zhixiao quickly drew the sword from the waist of the guard in front of him and put it against his neck.
The atmosphere froze in an instant, and the guards stood there, not daring to move.
Mo Jingheng looked at Gu Zhixiao holding the sword against his neck, his eyes a little flustered. When he was about to step forward to stop him, Gu Zhixiao saw Mo Jingheng's intention and said coldly, "Don't come over."
Mo Jingheng stopped in his tracks instantly, suppressed his temper and said, "You want to threaten me with death?"
Gu Zhixiao's cold face was covered with tears. He looked at Mo Jingheng with despair and said, "Even if I do this, you won't compromise, right?"
"It's good that you know." Mo Jingheng paused and added, "When I ascend to the throne, you will be the queen. I don't understand why you want to stop me?"
"Don't you understand?"
Mo Jingheng tilted his head slightly in confusion, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Why?"
"Because the dragon throne is not yours at all. It does not belong to you, do you know that?"
"What a joke!" Mo Jingheng said angrily, "Since ancient times, whoever has the ability to sit on that position is the owner of the dragon throne. Do you think that your father got the throne legitimately?"
Gu Zhixiao was already in tears at this time, but her heart was calm. This was no longer the life she wanted, and the Third Prince in front of her was no longer the person she liked. All the past events were like passing clouds and smoke, and disappeared in an instant like fireworks blooming in the sky.
Gu Zhixiao raised his eyes and said calmly, "In this case, I wish the Third Prince a successful start and may everything go as you wish."
Soon after, her neck hit the sword beside her, and blood gushed out instantly. Gu Zhixiao fell to the ground with a look of regret in her eyes. Suddenly, all kinds of past memories of her and Mo Jingheng appeared in front of her, including the two of them enjoying the cool under the tree together, buying New Year's goods together during the New Year, and going to the temple together to pray for blessings.
Then her father appeared in front of her and tears rolled down her cheeks. "Father, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have disobeyed you. You're right. The third prince is very ambitious. I can't handle him."
Mo Jingheng looked at the blood splattered on his face, his eyes full of surprise and panic. Just when Gu Zhixiao was about to fall, Mo Jingheng quickly caught Gu Zhixiao in panic, covering his neck which was still bleeding with his hand.
His eyes instantly turned red as he shouted, "Go find a doctor, go get a doctor."
