Chapter 87
The Ninth Prince was still sleeping soundly lying there, without any defense against Duanmu Rui's back, his breathing was still steady...
But Duanmu Rui's hands were shaking.
The tip of the knife was already aimed at his back, as long as it was pierced down... as long as it was pierced hard...
Solve this demon, and everyone will be better off.
All of them will no longer be used by him, and if they die, they will not die in his hands.
As long as he is dead, no one will come to snatch Zhenzhen, and no one will snatch the two little guys in the future...
But once the Ninth Prince dies, he will not be much better. What should I do, what should my parents do...
No...
Or... that's all!
After so many days of courage, he was suddenly discouraged, but Duanmu Rui felt relieved instead.
The uncontrollable tension and heavy breathing also calmed down with his mood.
The heartbeat seemed to return to its place, and the whole body was also recovered. The hands holding the dagger were no longer trembling. Duanmu Rui carefully retracted the dagger he was holding.
He only felt that his hand hadn't moved half a minute, and suddenly the Ninth Prince who had been lying there had moved!
A metallic sound sounded, and Duanmu Rui was firmly pressed on the bed by a strong impact.
He didn't dare to move the dagger in his hand, but he saw the situation clearly in the dark.
Ninth Prince held him down with one hand, and held his saber on Duanmurui's neck with the other, the cool blade pressed against his skin.
And his dagger was pointing right at the heart of the Ninth Prince...
I couldn't see the expression of the Ninth Prince clearly, but the feeling of being so cold that I was about to freeze made Duanmu Rui shiver.
Sure enough... this man was much harder than him, and the hand with the knife didn't tremble at all.
"Why do you want to do this!" Duanmu Rui had never heard such a tone of the Ninth Prince, with anger, depression, disappointment, giving up, or expecting something, "What is the purpose of being by my side!"
The coolness from the knife against Duanmu Rui's neck made him tremble again, the place where it touched was slightly tingling, and he wondered if there was bleeding, "Purpose? I have to ask you!"
"Ask me!" The Ninth Prince turned his head and snorted, his chest rose and fell sharply, and his heavy breathing was all sprayed on Duanmu Rui's face, "You know I'm going to fight, could it be that you have something to do with the Western Feudal Kingdom and kill me directly?" silenced?"
The Ninth Prince's knife did not leave, and Duanmu Rui's blade was still pointing at his heart. Neither of them moved a little, and only the sound of their breathing could be heard in the room. Duanmu Rui's heart fell into the ice cave all of a sudden. inside.
It turns out that no matter what you do, you will be suspected instantly, so what is true, what are the two in your stomach, what is trust!Nothing!
"So? You used me to silence me two years ago, and now you are using this excuse to try to silence me?" Duanmu Rui was very disappointed with him. He was usually too gentle, but the knife on his neck would not shake at all. He doesn't tremble when facing him, and even less trembles when facing Zhenzhen. Such a person... his heart is so hard that it's scary.
The Ninth Prince opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he insisted on holding it in his stomach. He forcibly endured the temper that wanted to explode for a long time, and his breath was still heavy. After a while, he lowered his voice and suppressed the obvious anger. Said, "If you want my life, it's not enough for you now! Get out!"
roll!
"Take your hands away!" Duanmu Rui's eyes instantly turned cold, more complete than disappointment, but there was another layer of relief.
roll?good!
The Ninth Prince looked at him coldly for a long time, then put the knife back on the other side of the pillow.
Duanmu Rui sneered when he saw it. After entering the room, the saber that was casually placed on the table had reached his pillow side at some point. He was on guard against him, and perhaps he had never let go.
Duanmu Rui also took back his dagger, put it on the knife case and put it beside the pillow.
He turned and got out of bed to get dressed, the Ninth Prince took the opportunity to take the dagger in the dark and touched the pattern on it.
After touching it twice, and putting it in the same place again, he clenched his fists and sat there, looking at Duanmu Rui who had already lit a lamp and put on his clothes.
The anger in his eyes could set the whole room on fire, but his whole body was covered with frost.
"That house, I'll pay you back 500 taels first, and I'll borrow the rest of the money! I'll pay you back when I borrow enough! Or we move out, and you take back the house." Duanmu Rui got dressed and walked over to get it. He picked up the dagger and stuffed it into the skirt of his shirt.
"I said at the beginning that there is no reason to take back the things that the king gave away. The house will not be given to you, but will be reserved for the unborn child and Zhenzhen!" He thought for a while after speaking, "As for the mark, four There may be someone in the backyard that can cover it, you go to the fourth brother, and don't come to see me in the future!"
Duanmu Rui took everything he had, "From now on...don't come to see me either!"
He turned and left without leaving any room.
I didn't feel sad at all, but rather relieved.
It was very dark outside the inn, Duanmu Rui went back to ask for a lamp from the waiter at the inn, he carried the lantern back home, the cold air made him very clear-headed, no matter what the process was, the result was right It's what he wants!That's it!
After returning to the mansion, Mrs. Duanmu got up habitually and poured hot water for him and asked the servants to bring some hot snacks. Seeing his tired appearance, she didn't say anything, closed the door with a smile and went back to the room.
But the Ninth Prince sat in the inn until it was time to go to court, watching Duanmu Rui leave his upper body naked all the time.
When he had to leave, the Ninth Prince sighed deeply, and returned to the mansion to prepare his court clothes.
I don't know which link went wrong, Duanmu Rui actually wanted to kill him, that dagger with the pattern of the Western Feudal Kingdom...
At this juncture, the person next to the pillow is naturally the most difficult to guard against, and it is still a mistake after all calculations!
Was he voluntary or forced... Ninth Prince's mind was empty and he couldn't think of anything.
When it came to Chaoshang, General Zhenxi sent news that the battle is currently stable and there is no need to send more troops.
However, the Ninth Prince proposed to go to the battlefield. Half of the Manchu officials agreed and half opposed it. The emperor suspended the proposal.
After going down to the court, the emperor kept the Ninth Prince, and they went to the imperial study.
"Does Ninth Brother have something on his mind today? Chaoshang's performance is not something you can do. What happened?"
The Ninth Prince took a deep breath, thinking about the war with the Western Feudal Kingdom, thinking about the dagger, and thinking about the man who resolutely left, "It's nothing."
"This is not an answer. Let me ask you. I was in a good mood a few days ago, but today I suddenly feel like this. It must be related to the people around you. It must not be Xiao Jue who can affect your emotions, but Duanmu Rui."
"So obvious?" Ninth Prince was a little surprised.
"Of course! What happened?" asked the Emperor.
Ninth Prince frowned slightly, and immediately changed his indifferent expression, "It's nothing serious, it's just separation."
"It's just separation?" The emperor sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ninth younger brother standing in front of him, "If it's just that, you will definitely not be so impulsive today."
Facing the emperor's questioning, that dagger appeared before his eyes again, and the Ninth Prince was stabbed in the heart, "I met a white-eyed wolf, it will be fine in a few days, fourth brother don't worry."
The emperor didn't continue to ask, "That's fine, you can adjust it yourself. The love between children is a matter, but it's not a big deal. Otherwise, the fourth brother will send some Omega to your house. With new people, you won't miss the old love."
"Thank you, brother four."
The emperor smiled, "Whether you accept or reject this thank you, why do you still look bitter!"
Ninth Prince rubbed his temples, "Accept!"
"There will be newcomers sent to the palace next month. I will pick a few for you at that time, or you can come and choose in private." The emperor saw that he was in a much better mood, so he stopped mentioning this matter. Continue to keep an eye on the war in the country, according to reports that the Xifan Kingdom has some trade with Nanyang, and it is possible to find help in this matter, you are familiar with Nanyang affairs, so you can't relax."
"Yes!" The Ninth Prince put the matter of Duanmu Rui behind him, and analyzed the war with the emperor, as well as some opposition in the Ministry of War during this period.
But Duanmu Rui had never felt so relaxed. He had a good night's sleep in the morning and went to Fangfu full of energy.
Although the Ninth Prince said that there is no need to pay back the matter of the house, Duanmu Rui didn't want to take advantage of him, so he went to Fang's mansion and found Boss Fang.
"If my house is sold, how much silver can it be sold for?"
Boss Fang was very surprised, "Sell? Why? I just moved there a few days ago."
Duanmu Rui found an excuse and briefly talked about his time with the Ninth Prince, focusing on the fact that the two had broken up.
Boss Fang was in a good mood when he heard that, "If you want to sell, I can help you ask if there is anyone who wants to buy it. Mr. Chen, who owns the house, knows a few people. You can also ask your master for help, but the location is not that good. It can be sold, and the price should not be low.”
"Yes," Duanmu Rui rushed in to thank, "As long as there is a possibility of selling, I will sell it, and return the silver taels to the Ninth Prince as soon as possible, so that we will not owe each other."
"Then what about your mark?" Boss Fang asked this question, "If you need help, there is an Alpha in my backyard that can cover the mark of the Nine Princes on your behalf. With a new mark, you won't be harassed by others when you go out."
Duanmu Rui thumped for no reason when he mentioned Marking, "It's better...don't make any plans yet, the important thing is to sell the house. Now that I'm pregnant, it's not convenient to mark it again. It's better to talk about it after giving birth..."
"Right."
Duanmu Rui went to the accountant and told his master about the sale of the house. Apart from being taken aback, the master quickly accepted the reality, "This thing is indeed something you can do, really! Let me help you, this ridiculous Once, just don’t regret it in the future... After all, you have three heirs, so you’re really playing like a kid!"
Duanmu Rui hurriedly explained to the master, and made excuses for himself, but the master finally agreed to his request, and took him to make appointments with several middle-aged men for several days, and explained the house affairs.
In the past few days, Duanmu Rui has been extremely relaxed, and he hardly thinks of the Ninth Prince, let alone the blade that night.
As if nothing had happened, apart from being free and unrestrained, humming a song every day, even doing accounts is full of energy.
But Zhenzhen misses the Ninth Prince a little bit, after Duanmu Rui went back, Zhenzhen nestled in Duanmu Rui's arms, asking "Daddy, Daddy" endlessly.
Duanmu Rui tried his best to divert his attention, but the effect was not bad. After a few days, he really stopped thinking about his father.
Really didn't miss Dad, but the Emperor was completely annoyed by the Ninth Prince.
