Xiao Jiuyuan was different from others. He only felt sad. No matter what reason his parents had for him, it was a fact that they had abandoned him when he was born.

And now, he had been abandoned once again.

Although he was not the Empress Dowager’s child, he was raised by her. However, at the critical moment, she did not hesitate to abandon him.

This made him very sad and heartbroken, as if he had never been loved by anyone.

“Why? why are you all treating me like this?”

Xiao Jiuyuan couldn’t help but roar.

The Empress Dowager saw his expression change and quickly said,””Alright, I’ve told you about your matter, so let the Emperor go.”

Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly looked up at the Empress Dowager and said,””Did I say to let him go? He’s schemed against me time and time again, trying to kill me. Do you think I’ll let him go so easily?”

After Xiao Jiuyuan finished speaking, the Empress Dowager’s face changed, and so did the old Emperor ‘s.

“Xiao Jiuyuan!” The old Emperor struggled and shouted,”if you kill me, you will be condemned by the world.”

Hearing his words, Xiao Jiuyuan kicked the Emperor hard and said,””I don’t care if I’m scolded, I just want to kill you,”

The Empress Dowager’s face turned pale. She struggled and shouted,””Xiao Jiuyuan, let him go.”

Xiao Jiuyuan turned to look at the Empress Dowager. Seeing her heartache, he thought of the kindness he had shown for raising him for so many years. Although she was heartless, he was not a heartless person.

If he were to kill the Emperor, the Empress Dowager would definitely break down. She might really die.

And he really couldn’t bear to.

“I don’t have to kill him,” Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly said.”I’ll ask him to pass the throne to Xuan Prince immediately.”

If the throne was passed on to Xuan Wang, there would not be so much trouble.

This damned thing should have long since rolled off the throne.

However, Xiao Jiuyuan’s words caused the Emperor to shout angrily,””This one will not give an edict. This one will not pass the throne to anyone.”

Xiao Jiuyuan sneered and said,”I’m afraid this is not up to you. Now you have two choices. One, I kill you. Two, pass the throne to His Highness Xuan Prince.”

The Empress Dowager wanted to speak again, but Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly shouted,””Shut up,”

“I’ve already promised to let him go, are you still not satisfied? Even if you didn’t give birth to me, you still raised me. Is your heart made of iron? How can you be so cold-blooded and heartless?”

Xiao Jiuyuan’s words made the Empress Dowager’s face pale.

She gritted her teeth and slowly turned to look at the Emperor.””My son, give the decree and pass the throne to Xuan Prince.”

This was also good. There would be no disputes this way, and everyone would be safe in the future.

However, when the Emperor heard that he was going to pass the throne to Xuan Prince, his face changed and he shook his head,””No, I don’t have an edict. Why should I pass the throne to Xuan Prince when I’m in good health?”

As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly went berserk. He raised his hand and slapped the Emperor.

The Emperor was slapped to the point of bleeding, and his body went limp as he fell to the ground.

Not far away, the Empress Dowager struggled to crawl over and hugged the Emperor. She cried out in heartache,””My son, my son.”

The Emperor lay in the Empress Dowager’s arms. His body was so weak that he couldn’t speak, and blood kept flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He glared at Xiao Jiuyuan angrily, and Xiao Jiuyuan also stared back at him coldly.

The two of them were like enemies of several lifetimes.

Xiao Jiuyuan said slowly,”now that the Emperor is in poor health, can you pass the throne to Xuan Prince? the Emperor is not feeling well. It’s better for him to rest in the palace.”
