After the concubine ran away, the cold prince lost control

Chapter 444: Decisive Killing

Huayang glanced at her calmly, then knelt down in front of Prince Xian and his wife and said, "Father, Mother, Zhang has done many evil things and deserves to be punished. But Huayang has been your daughter for twenty years, and this relationship cannot be cut off just like that. I hope Father and Mother will give my daughter a chance to live for the sake of our twenty years of family affection."

This means not wanting your mother and only caring about yourself.

Zhang had committed such a serious crime, and she knew very well that she could not be saved. Facing Zhang's calls, Huayang turned a deaf ear and only pleaded with the wife of the virtuous prince, "Mother, you have always been kind-hearted. I only ask you to give Zhang a quick death."

After hearing this, Zhang gradually became dejected, with sadness and despair on her face. It must have been a mixture of emotions that made her feel very uncomfortable.

After all, she was the daughter they had raised for twenty years, and it was difficult for the Prince and his wife to remain heartless in the face of her pleading.

Seeing that the couple did not express their opinions, Lu Ji asked, "Prince, Princess, what do you mean? Do you really want to acknowledge the daughter of your enemy?"

"Father, mother." Without waiting for the Xian prince and his wife to express their opinions, Huayang fell to the ground crying, "Don't tell me, you really don't recognize your daughter?"

Prince Xian turned his head slightly, and Princess Xian subconsciously raised her hand to help Huayang up, saying hesitantly: "Otherwise, let her stay in the mansion and be my adopted daughter."

She looked at Prince Xian and discussed with him, "We have raised this child for so many years, and now she is suffering from illnesses. If we don't want her, how can she survive?"

Seeing his wife say this, Prince Xian was also moved: "Then let her stay for the time being."

As he said that, he looked at Lu Ji and asked again what he wanted most in his heart: "Excuse me, Regent, where is Ah Ning now? I will go and take her home in person."

Lu Ji was amused, his laughter was cold and ironic: "Since the prince and princess have accepted this thief as their daughter, why are they still thinking about Ah Ning?"

"We naturally want our own daughter."

The wife of the Xian Prince abandoned Huayang, stood up anxiously, and walked to Lu Ji in two or three steps: "Prince Regent, An Ning is our biological daughter, we naturally value her the most, all of this is Zhang's fault, as for Huayang, she is also innocent, letting her stay in the mansion will not hinder An Ning in any way, from now on, we will naturally love An Ning the most, and make up for all the debts we owe her in the past."

Lu Ji smiled coldly when he heard this: "How does the princess plan to make it up to An Ning?"

The Princess of Xian was speechless for a moment when asked.

Yes, how can she, as a mother, make it up to her own daughter?
She is now the regent princess, with status and position no less than herself. She has a husband who dotes on her and two sons. Her life is perfect and she lacks nothing.

Lu Ji glanced at the wife of Prince Xian calmly: "Princess, you are too kind." Then he looked at Prince Xian: "Does Your Majesty also want to reward this thief?"

Seeing his wife's eyes welling up with tears after being scolded by Lu Ji, Prince Xian was eager to protect his wife and replied to Lu Ji: "Princess, you are right. These are all the faults of the Zhang family. It has nothing to do with Huayang."

Lu Ji glanced at Prince Xian coldly, then stood up and was about to leave. Prince Xian hurriedly caught up with him and said anxiously: "What do you mean, Prince Regent? Now that the truth is out, we want to see A Ning and recognize A Ning. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Lu Ji stopped walking, turned to look at Prince Xian, and asked coldly: "Your Highness, you want to recognize Ah Ning even though you are paying dividends to the thief girl?"

Prince Xian was choked by the retort. Lu Ji smiled faintly and continued, "Do you want Ah Ning to be on an equal footing with this thief girl and call her sister?"

Prince Xian frowned upon hearing this: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Lu Ji simply said, "Kill the two thieves."

"This" Prince Xian hesitated. Lu Ji smiled coldly: "Why? Your Majesty is also learning from the princess, the kindness of a woman?"

Prince Xian opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "After all, Huayang has been under our wing for twenty years. Who can be so heartless?"

Lu Ji simply said: "Since the prince and princess have feelings for this thief, then forget about recognizing An Ning."

"Lu Ji, aren't you being unreasonable?"

Hearing that they were not allowed to acknowledge their daughter, Princess Xian became anxious. She walked over in two or three steps and said to Lu Ji unhappily, "A Ning is our biological daughter. Why don't you let us acknowledge her?"

"Just because she was about to die of cold and hunger, and had nowhere else to go, I took her in and raised her, just because I was her husband."

Lu Ji's tone was so overbearing that the Princess of Xian almost fainted.

"Your Highness, look at this, what should we do?" Princess Xian looked at her husband helplessly.

Prince Xian thought for a moment and asked, "Does the Regent have to put Huayang to death before he allows us to recognize our daughter?"

Lu Ji said nothing, just nodded.

The silent oppression makes people more uneasy.

The wife of Prince Xian was completely at a loss and fell into Prince Xian's arms, crying.

Prince Xian glanced at Huayang, who was kneeling on the ground and crying heartbreakingly, and said to Lu Ji with difficulty: "I will send her away far away, and will never allow her to set foot in the capital again, and I will never see her again in the future."

"Father, how can you be so cruel?"

Huayang cried heartbreakingly, but Prince Xian ignored her and said to Lu Ji, "The Regent is also a father, so he should understand my feelings. I just want to acknowledge my daughter and fulfill my responsibilities as a father."

When he said this last sentence, there were tears in his eyes and sadness in his tone.

Lu Ji couldn't help but be slightly moved.

Finally, he said, "Since the prince can't bear to do it, then Lu will do it for you."

Prince Xian didn't quite understand what Lu Ji meant. He just looked at him blankly with confusion in his eyes. But before he could ask, Lu Ji turned back into the hall. He went straight to Zhang and swiftly drew out the dagger from his waist. Everyone was still in shock. There was a flash of cold light, and blood gushed out from Zhang's neck. Her eyes were wide open, her mouth open, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it in the end, and she fell down weakly.

It was not until Zhang fell down that screams were heard in the huge hall.

Huayang, who was kneeling on the ground, let out a cry of fear that was not like a human voice, mixed with the involuntary screams of fear from the surrounding maids. The huge hall suddenly became a mess.

"Prince Regent, you——" Prince Xian was still calm, and he shouted at Lu Ji; "Even if you want to deal with her, you can't do it here, Lu Ji, you are so barbaric."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ji raised his hand and grabbed Hua Yang's hair. Then there was the sound of a knife piercing flesh, and Hua Yang fell in a pool of blood.

With just a few moves, Lu Ji easily took care of Zhang's mother and daughter.
