Chapter 973 Brothers and Sons Killing Each Other
As soon as the words fell, Xue Beng's expression quickly became ferocious and sickly, his eyes widened, staring at Xue Ke like a hungry wolf.
"But what about before?!" Xue Beng almost roared, "Now you know I'm your fourth brother, did you ever treat me as your brother before?"
"Yes! Power is certainly not important to a woman like you! Because you have no chance, you can even find a good family to marry with the protection of the royal family! But I am a man, I am the prince of the Tiandou Empire! I was born with the opportunity to rule the world and sleep on the lap of a beautiful woman, why should I give it to others?" Xue Beng was so excited that he danced and shouted, his pale face flushed due to excessive excitement.
"Clap clap clap!"
As he spoke, Xue Beng stretched out his hand and continuously slapped Emperor Xue Ye's already shriveled face. Each slap was accompanied by a crisp sound, as if he was deliberately provoking Xue Ke, and each slap seemed to hit Xue Ke's heart.
"Fourth brother, even if this is the case, you shouldn't do such a thing. Xue Ke doesn't understand, but she also knows that no matter what our family affairs are, it is not the turn of the people from the Xingluo Empire to interfere, and you shouldn't insult our father's dragon body!" Xue Ke stared at Xue Beng fiercely, her eyes full of anger and unwillingness. At this moment, she hated herself for not having a strong fighting power. At this critical moment, not only could she not help Ye Qiu, but she could only talk powerlessly here.
"Haha. My sister is really naive. This is not a game. The fight for the throne has always been like this, with intrigues, alliances and unscrupulous means! This is the truth!" Xue Beng danced with joy and excitement, as if he was giving a crazy speech. "The fight for the throne has always been so cruel and ruthless since ancient times. For the supreme power, any means will be used!"
As he spoke, he hunched over like a cunning fox, showing two rows of white teeth that seemed to be oozing blood to Xue Ke, and said sinisterly: "Sister Xue Ke, you don't think that the deaths of the second and third brothers have nothing to do with our good eldest brother, do you? Don't be naive, the royal family is a place where people eat each other, brothers and even fathers and sons kill each other!"
"Brother, do you think what my younger brother said is right?" Xue Beng widened his eyes, grinning grimly, and cast a malicious look at Xue Qinghe.
"..." Xue Qinghe did not answer, but just watched the avalanche quietly, with golden light flashing in her eyes, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking at the moment.
"Haha. Big brother, does this count as consent?" Xue Beng looked at Xue Qinghe's ugly expression, and felt extremely happy, as if he had found the greatest pleasure. He patted his head, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said to Xue Qinghe with a teasing face: "Oh! By the way, someone told me before that in addition to the poison I gave my father, he was actually poisoned by another kind of poison. Big brother, do you know?"
"..."
Xue Qinghe remained silent.
However, many members of the Royal Knights looked at her, their eyes full of doubt and expectation. At this time, silence undoubtedly had a huge impact on morale! Everyone was waiting for Xue Qinghe's explanation, even if it was just a few words.
But Qian Renxue didn't want to lie. She felt guilty towards Xue Ke and didn't want to make any excuses at this time.
Once some things are said, they may cause more trouble, and she doesn't want to lie to Xue Ke anymore.
