The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 179
Prok! prok! prok!
A loud applause was heard and broke up the quarrel between the couple, making the two men stop their quarrel. They soon realized that it was not just them in the room and they were in the limelight. And the most important thing was that the person who was in one room with them was Pei Zhang Xi, the one who should at least see their quarrel that would reveal their crimes.
"Sister... It's not what you think." Pei Liu Wen regained his senses and went back to wanting to get close to Pei Zhang Xi before being knocked back by him.
"ah! Little sister. You don't believe me?" Pei Liu Wen's face was distorted.
"I've heard and seen enough of everything. Is there anything else I should listen to? And also King Nan, even though I am your younger brother, but King Nan must remember that I am the Crown Prince and already king Nan should respect me anyway."
"This is. Crown Prince, you know that's not what I meant."
"Then what? What would King Nan explain how the good thing was talked about earlier? We forget first about King Nan's intention to become the Crown Prince and replace me. Now please explain how King Nan hired assassins to kidnap my son and order them to eliminate him?" Pei Zhang Xi stared intently at Pei Liu Wen.
"I didn't. I wouldn't dare to do it. I could swear! I could have sworn I didn't."
"You don't have the courage to do anything. You only rely on your delusional wife wanting to become a Queen with her abilities. Am I right?"
"Your Majesty. It's not me. That was my wife. An Jia Yun's. He forced me to do everything. I am your good brother. I will never do anything against you. You have to trust me."
"Hey! Why be me? We both know exactly what happened." An Jia Yun did not accept only him being made a scapegoat whereas Pei Liu Wen would be free and enjoy his life freely after all.
"That's true. You're the one who did everything. You planned everything. You also found the assassins to kidnap the Crown Prince's baby and order him to kill him when I didn't agree. All that evil you did."
"You! You idiot!" An Jia Yun was so angry to see Pei Liu Wen provoked and revealed their crimes so easily."
"Master Lin, have their statements been recorded?" Pei Zhang Xi did not bother listening to the quarrels of the two people. He immediately asked Mr. Lin who was the senior officer in charge of recording the results of the interrogation.
"Yes Your Majesty. Servant has written what King Nan and Empress Nan have acknowledged."
"good. Since both of them have admitted guilt, Mr Lin must have known what to do, right?"
"Your Majesty, you can't do this to me. We are brothers after everything. As a Crown Prince you can't be too cruel to your own brother or outside rumors will say if you're ruthless and merciless. Are you not afraid of karma?" Pei Liu Wen's panicked face distorted. He cannot be imprisoned.
"Huh! Maybe it's because I was too loose on everyone's previous crimes to make people like you fearless and constantly frame my family. This time I will not let go of anyone who tries to hurt them no matter what price I have to pay. Besides, there's one thing I've always wanted to ask you guys, people who have the label 'brother' which is attached to you but you are always the one who is always looking for ways to bring each other down and even viciously target the lives between you. Is a throne so blinding to the eye that it makes you go crazy?" Pei Zhang Xi stopped halfway and asked without turning around.
"Huh! You hypocritical man! Didn't you always say if you didn't want to be the Crown Prince before and said that you wouldn't be in the race for the position? But now it is you who occupy that place. Aren't you ashamed that you're the one who's glaring for power now?"
"God! It's not this position that I'm going to but it's one of the ways that I'm protecting my family. I've said out loud to stay out of power struggles but still you're still after me and my loved ones no matter how far away I am from you. By becoming the Crown Prince at least I will have the power I can use to protect my family, I don't mind breaking my principles. After all, I'm occupying this position purely with your abilities not something that is cheating. Then why am I embarrassed?" Pei Zhang Xi turned his head and spoke arrogantly.
"You! You don't deserve to be the Crown Prince. I'll tell Dad to get you taken down. A person who is a slave to his family will not be able to lead a country." Pei Liu Wen shouted loudly.
"Mo Ting, don't you feel like he's too noisy?"
"Hamba understands Your Majesty." Mo Ting understood and nodded his head before he took off his socks and stuffed them in Pei Liu Wen's mouth which instantly made the man faint after smelling the foul smell that smelled from Mo Ting's socks forced in his mouth. If he didn't faint, everyone was sure he would vomit. But maybe later after he woke up from his stupor, he would definitely vomit soon. Like An Jia Yun who was vomiting incessantly at this moment.
"Hamba has done your Majesty's command." Without feeling anything was wrong with her actions, Mo Ting reported proudly.
"good job. But next time you might have to bring spare socks while you're gone." Pei Zhang Xi did not know what to say. After all his order to Mo Ting was to silence Pei Liu Wen whom he judged noisy, he did not care how. The most important thing is that it is very effective.
"Hehehe. Good Your Majesty. I will remember it well." Mo Ting scratched the back of his head.
