Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1299 The source is muddy and the flow is turbid, and there is a struggle between the upper and lower parts!
In an instant, blood flowed down Shang Ruyi's white fingers.

Yuwen Ye's face darkened: "Ruyi, let go!"

A sharp pain came from between her fingers and palms. Shang Ruyi subconsciously bit her lips, but did not let go as he said. Instead, she held the sharp sword even tighter, allowing the sharp blade to cut her palms and fingers. Drops of blood flowed down between her fingers and dripped into the Liangyi Hall.

The blood finally stained this place.

Yuwen Yuan frowned - it's not that he had never seen blood before, he had seen more blood, he was accustomed to more cruel scenes than those inside and outside the Xuanwu Gate, but at this moment, facing Shang Ruyi's blood, he felt an indescribable heartache.

He also said, "Let go."

Shang Ruyi gritted his teeth and said, "Father, he is your only son."

"..."

"Father, your legacy needs to be passed down, and the Great Sheng Dynasty needs to last for thousands of years. Don't you really care about that?"

Yu Wenyuan's eyes turned red again.

But this time, it was not because of anger, not because of pain, but because of the surging sadness in his heart. Tears were almost about to fall, but as an emperor, he still controlled his emotions tightly, even though tears were already in his eyes and he could not see what expressions Yuwen Ye and Shang Ruyi had at this moment.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Do I want to pass my great dynasty to a man who killed his brothers?"

Shang Ruyi said: "Who forced him to kill his brother?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Shang Ruyi immediately felt a sharp pain in the palm of her hand again. It was Yu Wenyuan's hand that trembled violently, and the sword edge once again scratched her hand.

Yuwen Ye's eyes also turned red: "Ruyi, let go!"

But Shang Ruyi didn't even look at him. He just tightened his grip on the sword in his hand and looked at Yu Wenyuan and asked, "Who forced him to do that?"

"..."

"Your Majesty just said that as a wife, you should respect your husband and be friendly to your relatives, and be friends with your uncles. What about fathers?"

"..."

"When sons quarrel over family disputes, it means their father's teachings are lacking; when the source is muddy and the stream is muddy, the upper and the lower will quarrel!"

"..."

"Father, is everything you do fair to him?"

These words were like thunder exploding above his head. Yuwen Yuan subconsciously took a step back. His hand trembled, and the sword fell out of his hand and fell to the ground with a clang.

Yuwen Ye rushed over and held Shang Ruyi's hand. He saw several deep bloodstains on her palms and fingers. The skin and flesh were turned over, and the bones inside could almost be seen. He gritted his teeth in pain and looked up at Shang Ruyi deeply: "You——"

After the initial pain, my palms are now gradually going numb and it doesn't hurt as much anymore.

But Shang Ruyi was still sweating profusely. She looked at Yuwen Ye's red eyes and shook her head gently.

"I am fine."

Yuwen Ye was speechless. Even facing the tragic scene of rivers of blood and corpses everywhere on the battlefield, he could still remain calm and indifferent. At this moment, he was in so much pain that he was panicking, but he could only endure it. He held Shang Ruyi's hands with both hands. He wanted to use force, but was afraid that using too much force would make her more painful. His fingers were almost in cramps.

He held Shang Ruyi's hand, trembling, and after a long while he finally said in a deep voice: "Father, is this all my fault?"

"..."

This sentence almost defeated Yuwen Yuan.

He staggered back several steps until he fell down in front of his desk. Under the dim, flickering light, his old face was filled with pain and helplessness, and there seemed to be tears on his face.

After a long while, he said, "Feng Chen, what can I do?"

"..." "Don't I know that you have worked very hard? Don't I know that you have made great contributions? Don't I know that half of the Great Sheng Dynasty was conquered by you?"

"..."

"But--"

"But,"

Although he stopped here, and although these two words didn't seem to explain anything, they were like a sharp knife stabbing into Yuwen Ye's heart. He looked at Yuwen Yuan with pain in his eyes: "But, Big Brother is Big Brother, and I am me, right?"

"..."

"Father knew it was unfair to me, but he still gave the position of crown prince to my eldest brother."

"..."

"Just because he is the eldest son? The eldest son?"

Yuwen Yuan was speechless, but his silence acknowledged everything.

Yuwen Ye's eyes gradually turned cold. He looked down at the wound on Shang Ruyi's hand again, and wrapped her hand completely in his palm. The blood also dyed his hand red. The bloody smell seemed to cover him in an instant. He took Shang Ruyi's hand and slowly stood up, saying: "In this case, please be consistent, father."

"..."

"Now, I am your eldest son."

"you--"

Yu Wenyuan looked at him with red eyes, but even if he wanted to say something, he couldn't open his mouth at this moment.

Because over Yuwen Ye's shoulder, he saw flames flickering outside the gate of Liangyi Hall and swaying figures. A burly figure as big as a mountain slowly walked to the door of the hall and almost blocked the door again.

Compared to Yuwen Ye and Shang Ruyi, he was covered in more blood, even his beard and hair were still dripping with blood. Even if he stood still at the door, the wind from behind him poured into the Liangyi Hall, and the bloody smell in the wind made people in the hall shudder.

Especially Yuwen Yuan.

He knew that he had not heard wrongly. The seemingly chaotic sound of wind just now was from Yuwen Ye's subordinates. These soldiers who were supposed to follow him to Luoyang had all returned, and now, they had surrounded his Liangyi Palace.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and stared at Yuwen Ye: "After killing your brother, are you going to kill your father and the king?"

"..."

Yuwen Ye's shoulder twitched.

He did not speak immediately, but held Shang Ruyi's hands with one hand and held her shoulders with the other. The two of them turned around slowly, and when they walked out of the door, he said in a deep voice: "I could have chosen not to do this."

"..."

"If Your Majesty is willing to treat me fairly, if Your Majesty's treatment is not biased, I would not have to fight, and I would not have to come to this point with my brother and Yan Jie."

"..."

"So, what to do after today is up to Father to decide."

As they were talking, they had already walked to the door. When Shentu Tai saw Shang Ruyi's hand, he immediately frowned and turned to the people behind him and ordered: "Send someone to get the medicine immediately to treat the princess!"

Yuwen Ye looked at him: "Here——"

Shentu Tai said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will guard this place."

Yuwen Ye didn't say anything and silently protected Shang Ruyi as he left. Just behind them, Shentu Tai raised his hand and the door of Liangyi Hall slowly closed.

Inside the hall, there was only a pair of old, sad eyes filled with tear marks.
