Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

The people brought by the Eighth Prince were all his confidants. At his command, these people fought with all their might and the Emperor's men were defeated.

Tu Zhizhi, who was dying, saw this scene, her eyes flickered slightly, and she reminded: "The emperor had faked his death before, and he died so quickly this time, I'm afraid there must be something wrong."

When the Eighth Prince heard this, his face suddenly darkened. The next moment he ordered someone to drag the emperor's body over and he personally examined the emperor's face.

The Eighth Prince breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the emperor was not impersonated by someone else.

Tu Zhizhi deliberately propped herself up and walked over, her eyes fixed on the Eighth Prince's face, making sure that he was relieved and knew that the emperor was really dead.

She was very happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She just asked in confusion: "Didn't the emperor say he was going to Quanzhou with his men? How come he ran into us here? Is my information wrong?"

As she spoke, she glanced at the Eighth Prince subtly, and suddenly sighed, "I really didn't expect you to come to save me, Eighth Prince. I don't care what you're thinking, just because you saved me, I owe you my life."

"The emperor is an old fox. His current bedmate, the queen, is faking her death. So I don't think the emperor will die so easily."

When she was taken away by Yang Qingzhao, she began to feel uneasy and worried that Yang Qingzhao would hurt her because of Tu Yuanzhou.

So in order to survive, she betrayed her own people to a certain extent, and even sold the direction in which the emperor fled to Yang Qingzhao as information. She did not expect that the eighth prince would come to save her.

"This is my father. He is not an impersonator. He is dead. He died in my hands."

Hearing the hidden meaning in Tu Zhizhi's words, the Eighth Prince glanced at her sideways.

"Even if he's not dead, I'll make everyone in the world think he's dead."

After saying this, the Eighth Prince suddenly laughed, with a hint of hostility in his smile, as if Tu Zhizhi's meaningful words had given him a reminder.

"Tu Yuanzhou is a very capable person. You are his sister and have been with Princess An Qing for so many years. My mother and I trust you very much and are willing to entrust you with important tasks."

"The reason why I exposed your identity and sent people to hunt you down was just to deal with my father. After all, my situation was not good at that time. In order to survive and deceive my father, I resorted to this desperate measure."

"Tu Zhizhi, you should be able to understand my feelings and why I made that decision. Otherwise, I would not have risked my life to save you."

"I hope you remember the words 'life-saving grace', but I also hope you don't remember them, because it is a fact that I hunted you down, and you hate me right now."

The Eighth Prince made no secret of this fact, and his frankness blocked the provocation that Tu Zhizhi was about to blurt out.

She looked at the Eighth Prince in surprise, and when she met his sad eyes, some inexplicable thoughts came to her mind.

She unconsciously cast her gaze on the emperor's body, her pale face covered with a layer of cold frost.

"The emperor's death must spread throughout the world in a short period of time. Only then will you and my brother have a chance to compete for the throne."

"As for who will win, it depends on the abilities of the two of you. I am just a woman. Although I can contribute to some things, I can't get involved in the fight for the world."

Tu Zhizhi thought about her own situation and the fact that the Xintian Society was watching closely from the side. She thought over and over again, then she stretched out a hand and touched the Eighth Prince's chest, deliberately dragging out the last word and saying, "Unless you are willing to grant me the position of Queen."

Without waiting for the Eighth Prince to react, Tu Zhizhi withdrew her hand, smiled faintly and said: "If I were the Queen, I would do my best to assist you and make you a wise ruler who will be remembered for all eternity."

"Just you?" The Eighth Prince's heart was slightly moved, but his face was full of anger. "Tu Zhizhi, have you forgotten your identity?"

He stepped closer to Tu Zhizhi, with a look of sarcasm on his face: "You and Tu Yuanzhou are the grandchildren of Prince Mingde. I am a member of the royal family. If you become my queen, wouldn't I be considered a person who disregards moral principles?"

"You have the guts to disregard ethics, but I don't. After all, a wise ruler who will be remembered for all eternity can have blemishes, but he must never have any ethical flaws."

The Eighth Prince's eyes were filled with frost, as if Tu Zhizhi's words were not meant to help him sincerely, but to drag him into a despicable abyss.

"I know that you two have a deep brotherly love, and I also know that you are very capable, but I never thought that you would go this far for Tu Yuanzhou."

"If I had known you were so fierce, I should have let you face Father alone."

"I believe that as long as my father is here, he will definitely strangle you and prevent your brother from becoming king."

The eighth prince kept shouting "Father", and the emperor's body was lying at his feet.

Tu Zhizhi listened to his words and felt only irony when she saw this scene.

The royal family members are all cold-hearted, and even her brother is no exception. If she had not been devoted to her brother, how could she have had such confidants to order her around during those years with Princess An Qing?

A sense of sadness welled up in her heart, but Tu Zhizhi suppressed it rationally and said calmly: "If I say that you are not qualified to fight for the world just because you are the emperor's son, you should..."

Before Tu Zhizhi could finish her words, the Eighth Prince grabbed her fragile neck fiercely.

"Do you know what you are saying?" The Eighth Prince stared at Tu Zhizhi with cold eyes, his tone as chilling as a knife.

Tu Zhizhi only felt that her throat was being pinched, and the feeling of suffocation increased rapidly, making her dizzy in an instant, as if she would close her eyes completely in the next moment and would never be able to open them again to see this beautiful world.

Immediately grasping the Eighth Prince's hand, Tu Zhizhi tried to let herself take a breath of fresh air, and then took the opportunity to breathe and said quickly: "This is true, the emperor is not the blood of the previous emperor, so the emperor's children are not royal relatives."

"You are looking for death." The Eighth Prince was furious, and he tightened his grip on the neck even more.

Tu Zhizhi's face turned pale and her eyeballs almost popped out from being pinched.

Seeing her ferocious look, the Eighth Prince was greatly disturbed. He then relaxed his strength a little, but Tu Zhizhi fainted directly.

"Don't play dead. I am not Princess An Qing. I will not fall for your tricks."

Upon seeing this, the Eighth Prince let go of his hand and let Tu Zhizhi fall to the ground.

Seeing that she was motionless, as if she had been dead for a long time, the Eighth Prince's mind went blank, and then he reached out to feel her breathing.

After making sure that she was still alive, the Eighth Prince was stunned for a while before he had her helped up and put her in a carriage nearby.

"Father, oh father, you did such a ridiculous thing just to cover up the truth."

The eighth prince clenched his hands and then released them. He stared down at the emperor's body condescendingly, and his voice disappeared in an instant like the breeze.

"What should I do? Should I trust Tu Zhizhi or do what I thought before? Prince Rong has been planning for many years. Will he know about this? If I declare myself king, he will probably use this incident to ruin my reputation."
