1573 Duanmu Ge’s Ambition (2)
Hearing that, Duanmu Ge didn’t feel sad at all. Instead, he revealed a twisted smile.
“That old man is finally unable to hold on anymore.”
Speaking of this, Duanmu Ge chuckled disdainfully. “That old man must still be waiting for my good fourth brother to save him, right? Unfortunately, Fourth Brother really thought that he had fallen out of favor, and didn’t think about anything else at all. Old man, look at your son, who you’ve doted on for so many years. He can’t save you at all. Perhaps he still hates you! Don’t blame me for being ruthless. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too biased. Apart from being less talented than Fourth Brother since I was young, how am I inferior to him? But when have you ever looked me in the eye, you damn old man?”
Duanmu Ge took a deep breath and revealed a crazy smile. “Die. When that old man dies, the only person who will sit on the throne in the end will be me, Duanmu Ge! As for Fourth Brother and Consort Xian, don’t worry, old man. I’ll send them down to accompany you soon and let you reunite with your family in the netherworld!”
After Duanmu Ge vented the resentment in his heart, Wang Jiu asked carefully, “Your Highness, do you want me to source for another carriage to rush back?”
Duanmu Ge glanced over coldly. “When did I say I was going back?”
Wang Jiu was instantly stunned. “Your Highness, are you planning to deal with the fourth prince in advance?”
There were only three princes and a princess born to the current monarch. The eldest prince, Duanmu Chun, was already dead. If even the fourth prince, Duanmu Heng, was dead, the throne would definitely fall to Duanmu Ge.
Under such circumstances, it wasn’t impossible to return to the Imperial City later.
“There’s no hurry. It won’t be too late when we return to the Imperial City. With Consort Xian in hand, won’t it be easy to deal with my fourth brother?”
Duanmu Ge knew Duanmu Heng’s weakness very well, so he had nothing to fear.
Wang Jiu looked troubled. “But Your Highness, the Helian family has already urged you several times to resolve it as soon as possible.”
Hearing the Helian family, Duanmu Ge looked a bit angry. “Ignore them!”
After saying that, Duanmu Ge flicked his sleeves and left.
Wang Jiu felt helpless when they saw this and immediately left quickly.
After the two of them left for a while, Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan appeared where Duanmu Ge and the others were standing before.
Looking in the direction where Duanmu Ge left, Lu Zijia crossed her arms and said, “This second prince is indeed not simple.”
Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan’s cultivation levels were three to four levels higher than Duanmu Ge’s, so they heard the voice transmission clearly just then.
“Uncle should be arriving at the Imperial City soon,” Mu Tianyan said.
Lu Zijia sighed slightly. “I hope Uncle can make it in time!”
Even though she had only met Liang Wenmei, her second aunt, two or three times in total, she had a good feeling every time.
So, she still didn’t want anything to happen to her second aunt.
“From the second prince’s reaction, Consort Xian is safe for the time being.” Mu Tianyan held his wife’s hand and comforted her.
“I hope so,” Lu Zijia took a deep breath and said.
“Array Master Mu, Alchemist Lu, I heard from the guards that you suddenly left without even eating lunch. Did something happen?” As soon as Lu Zijia and the others returned to their resting place, Duanmu Ge came up to them and asked with concern.
Mu Tianyan was expressionless and had no intention of answering.
