1076: 489: Zhi Yan in agony!
Lanling’s cruel revenge!
More than a year ago, within the Rage Wave Palace!
“I have all the records of Ling Ao’s biological mother, as well as her romance with the late King, Ling Ao’s birthdate, and the King’s token.” Gui Xingfu knelt down and handed over a box.
Queen Zhiyan gazed at Gui Xingfu for a long ti and said, “You truly are ticulous in your plotting.”
“This old servant is terrified,” Gui Xingfu prostrated on the ground.
“Ling Ao’s biological mother should be my father’s lover from the common folk, right?” Queen Zhiyan said, “No need for these docunts; taking a vial of Ling Ao’s blood will suffice.
Our Zhi Clan’s blood has a specialized color spectrum.”
“Yes,” Gui Xingfu replied.
Queen Zhiyan said, “You hard my father with your left hand, and with your right, you found his illegitimate son.
But Ling Ao, this trump card, was intended for my father, wasn’t it?”
Indeed!
According to Gui Xingfu’s plan, he would bet on both sides, Zhi Li and Zhi Bian.
If Zhi Li triumphed greatly, Ling Ao’s identity would remain unrevealed.
However, if Zhi Bian managed to even the playing field, Gui Xingfu would present Ling Ao to perfectly solve King Zibian’s issue of having no heir.
Under normal circumstances, an illegitimate child does not have the right to inherit, but in everything, the strong decide.
The childless King Zibian, upon learning he had a son, who was exceptionally talented, would certainly first certify his lineage at the Dragon Temple, then publicly marry Ling Ao’s mother as his second wife, even if she had already passed.
This way, Ling Ao could rightfully beco a mber of the royal family and the sole heir to the throne.
Therefore, Gui Xingfu always treated Ling Ao very well, even better than his own children, hoping that one day, Ling Ao would beco his ultimate trump card or even ascend the throne.
One must admit, Gui Xingfu’s sches are top-notch in the entire Rage Wave Kingdom.
Yet, often tis, human calculations fall short of divine ones.
Who would have thought King Zibian would be so maniacal and resolute, first completely breaking with all the nobles and lords, preferring to be sidelined rather than compromise?
Then, he dared to challenge the world’s disapproval by supporting his daughter to be King.
Even more unexpected was Suo Lun’s rise; this dead-end move by the King actually succeeded.
Suo Lun, ard with just Tianshui City, defeated Zhi Li, who possessed the entire kingdom, pushing Zhi Yan to the throne as Queen.
Naturally, this result wasn’t too bad.
Although Gui Xingfu lost Tianshui City, his ancestral foundation remained in the hands of his daughter Gui Qinshao.
Furthermore, although Gui Xingfu had sold out his dignity, he achieved positions as minister of the Departnt of Punishnts and cabinet minister, with potential advancent to Pri Minister, reaching the pinnacle of his life.
However, he hadn’t anticipated such a sudden upheaval.
Suo Lun fell from the exalted position of Regent King to beco the world’s enemy, the malevolent World-Ending Demon Emperor.
Consequently, Gui Xingfu also plumted once again into the abyss.
At this mont, the trump card in his hand seed to regain its effect.
Queen Zhiyan suddenly said, “Gui Xingfu, Suo Lun was my husband, my greatest benefactor.
Without him, I wouldn’t have ascended to the throne, nor would my life be secure.
Yet I killed him; isn’t it the ultimate betrayal?”
Gui Xingfu cried, “Of course not; no matter how great Suo Lun’s achievents, he was a subject.
Moreover, he bore the Yao Xing, which was his own sin.
While he was Your Majesty’s benefactor, you are of a celestial body, untouchable by mortals.
The mont you married him, you repaid all kindness.
Though significant, compared to the Zhi Family, compared to the Rage Wave Kingdom, he is trivial.
You acted correctly, and justly, for the country, for the people.”
Queen Zhiyan said, “Yet, Uncle Zhi Ting committed suicide.
Although he didn’t utter a word of reproach, his gaze upon was unbearably cold, as if looking at a venomous snake.”
Gui Xingfu dared not reply.
Queen Zhiyan continued, “Eunuch Gao Yin also took his own life, though he claid it was to accompany my father in death, but…
I knew he did it for Suo Lun.”
She lifted her beautiful eyes, looking at the ceiling, and said, “Hei Ningqi claid illness to resign, even cutting off an arm to do so.
When I killed Suo Lun, my father died at that mont too, spewing blood, his heart in agony.
It was as if, by killing Suo Lun, I also killed my father.”
Gui Xingfu, weeping uncontrollably, knocked his head on the floor repeatedly, saying, “The late King was simply at the end of his lifespan, passing peacefully; Your Majesty mustn’t overthink.”
“You don’t understand,” Queen Zhiyan shook her head and said.
King Zibian knew beforehand of Suo Lun’s identity as the master of Yao Xing, instructing him to let no one find out, including Zhiyan.
Afterward, King Zibian privately summoned his daughter Zhiyan, telling her that no matter what happened in the future, regardless of any changes with Suo Lun, to let him go, not to kill or harm him.
At that ti, Zhiyan was very curious as to why her father would say such things.
Then, King Zibian made her swear never to harm Suo Lun for life, or else her father wouldn’t rest in hell.
Zhiyan took the oath back then.
Moreover, afterward, Suo Lun also proposed handing the kingdom over to Zhiyan, retiring with his family.
However, Zhiyan refused.
And so, the unforgettable wedding followed.
