Chapter 243: Spiritual Life Is Worse Than Death
Lei Shijiu was extremely helpless, but he still couldn't help but persuade him, "Do you know who the opponent is? It's Prince Chen, the invincible god of war! What can you use to fight him?"
The man's expression suddenly turned cold. "You are trying to make others look good but destroy your own ambition? Second brother, do you know why you lost? It's because you are hesitant..."
Lei Nineteen: “…” Forget it, forget it. I’ve said everything I should have said and reminded myself. If he still refuses to change his ways, it’s none of my business now.
I didn't say this to remind him, but I didn't want to see more people displaced or more soldiers die.
Knowing that the final outcome would be a loss, he didn't want to watch so many innocent soldiers die in vain.
However, in his current situation, he couldn't even save himself, so how could he save those thousands of families?
"Just develop the country well. It won't be too late to start a war after you have secured your position!"
The man sneered, "Now is the best opportunity, I will not let it go! Besides, don't we still have you? Although you are a little useless, you still have some value in the end."
Lei Shijiu didn't want to say anything more to him. He killed his brothers and sisters and didn't care about the lives of civilians and soldiers. Even if the princes didn't take action themselves, he wouldn't be able to sit on the throne for long.
"By the way, second brother, do you know how your mother died?"
Lei Shijiu had originally prepared to leave everything to fate and had planned to die here today. After all, this was his own country, and in another sense it could be considered a return to his roots.
However, after hearing about his own mother, he instantly lost his composure and his emotions became somewhat intense.
"Isn't my mother ill...?"
"Hahahaha! My dear second brother, are you a little too naive?"
Lei Shijiu was struck by lightning. Impossible, this is impossible! His mother had clearly died of illness...
Then his eyes turned red, "Speak! Tell me everything you know!"
Seeing how excited and irritable he was, the man on the city wall stopped talking.
"Hahaha, it turns out you don't care about nothing! I knew you care about your mother the most."
Lei Shijiu gnashed his teeth, his eyes revealing disgust, "What do you know? Tell me quickly!"
The man smiled smugly, "What can I do if I tell you? You are already dying, can you really change the situation?"
Lei Shijiu stared at him closely, having a bad feeling in his heart.
Then he said nonchalantly, "Why do you think your mother was poisoned?"
Lei Shijiu's expression paused, but he quickly reacted and became gloomy.
"It's you? You did it, right?! Why did you do this? My mother treated you well!"
The third brother's mother died when he was just born. However, the emperor had so many children that he would never treat him specially.
Therefore, he was a child without a mother and was often bullied by the palace servants.
It was his mother who knew about this and saved him from the fire and water. He never expected that this ungrateful wolf would dare to...
"How dare you?! If it weren't for my mother, you wouldn't be where you are today?"
The man looked disappointed. "Yes, she is the most gentle and kind woman I have ever seen in the harem."
There is not a single good person in the harem. They are all scheming, sinister and cunning villains.
Only his mother is the only ray of light in the harem.
Not only did she decide to take me in, she also taught me to read and write...
Most of my current achievements were thanks to her. What a pity! Unfortunately, I am not her child after all. No matter how good she treats me, it will never be better than her own son.
What's more, the path he chose is destined to be lonely, he has to do this!
If she was not eliminated first, she would definitely let her son ascend the throne. After all, the Immortal Emperor loved her so much.
Lei Shijiu started to cry as he listened, and finally burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Mother, did you see that? Did you hear that? You saved an ungrateful person!"
When the man on the city wall heard this, his face changed. He felt guilty about this matter, but he definitely did not regret it.
Although he was condemned by his conscience, facing the temptation of top power, he would rather bear that condemnation.
"I will kill you. I will definitely kill you! I will definitely avenge my mother!"
Lei Shijiu couldn't help but scream wildly. He treated him as his own brother. His mother took pity on him and adopted him and raised him like her own son. She never expected that he would do such a rebellious thing.
The man snorted coldly, "If it weren't for my mother's sake, I wouldn't have kept you alive until now."
Other princes who posed a threat to his throne had long been dealt with by these people.
Now he is the only one left. Even if the empire does not rescue him, he cannot really be killed. At most, he will be imprisoned in a cell for life.
"Forget about it. You are the only one who wants to kill me? You are in a difficult situation now. You should think about how to survive."
"Watch carefully today! Don't miss any clues! If you lose someone..."
The guarding soldiers trembled with fear, "Yes!"
The new king is cruel and aggressive, with a strange temper. If you are not careful, you will be killed by him, so everyone is always cautious.
After the man left, Lei Shijiu was still struggling violently.
He originally wanted to die, but now he is extremely unwilling to do so.
He hadn't avenged his mother yet, and he hadn't killed the ungrateful beast himself! How could he die?
"Let me go right now!"
Soldier:"……"
Lei Shijiu burst into laughter. "Aren't you afraid of him too? Why do you still listen to him?"
Soldiers: "..." As little soldiers, how could they have a say in these matters?
"Second Prince, you'd better stop struggling. The more you struggle, the more your wound will split open..."
Lei Shijiu was holding back his anger, but he was powerless to do anything. This feeling of despair and helplessness made him want to die but he couldn't. This was a spiritual state of living a life worse than death.
He must live to avenge his mother!!!
He didn't expect that his repeated tolerance would actually kill his own mother!
If I had noticed it earlier, if I could have stopped my mother from taking him in, if... Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs.
