Chapter 1121: Prince Li’s Extra: Dilemma

Murong Zheng had never hated a concubine so much. If it wasn't for the wrong timing, he might have seriously doubted whether his eyes were blind before, and he actually pampered such a clumsy woman for more than ten years.

After Concubine Dong left, Concubine Jin suddenly turned her head again, stared at Murong Zheng, and asked softly: "Did she do it?"

"Not sure, she had someone break Akai's legs before, and I have warned her." Murong Zheng answered honestly.

Even if he didn't investigate, he had guessed that Murong Kai's incident was the work of Concubine Dong. He pampered her too much, making her lose her sense of proportion and forget her identity.

"If Akai's poison cannot be cured, the emperor should release the fourth prince. After all, he is your son."

Concubine Jin's words were calm, as if she was just saying something casually, but Murong Zheng was a little at a loss, because he had never thought of asking Jie'er to pay for his life. He just deceived Concubine Dong. He hoped that Concubine Dong would hand over the antidote for the sake of her son.

Murong Zheng did not answer. At this time, he was just a selfish and biased father.

"I have never fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother. If something happens to him, I will accompany him. We will go through hell and heaven together."

Jin Fei's voice was still indifferent, as if she was not talking about life and death, but the most ordinary things.

"Don't think too much, Akai..."

Murong Zheng wanted to say something to comfort him, but he couldn't say a word.

He wanted to say that Akai would be fine, but that was just his wishful thinking.

"When I die, I will definitely take Concubine Dong with me. Your Majesty should be prepared."

Jin Fei spoke again. Murong Zheng looked at her and could hardly believe his ears.

"I always keep my word. Your Majesty knows it." After saying this, Jin Fei gave Murong Zheng a bitter smile and continued to look at her son.

She had long been tired of this cold and lonely palace. If Akai was gone, her life would be meaningless. So, she would take the person who killed Kai'er with her. She would not be in vain as a mother.

"Nonsense."

Murong Zheng had no words to describe his feelings at the moment. He was afraid that his son would die, that Concubine Jin would sacrifice her own son, and that Concubine Jin would kill Concubine Dong.

He believed that Concubine Jin would do what she said.

He wanted to stop it, but he also knew that he could not stop it.

His only hope now was a miracle.

But the miracle did not come, but the fire came.

The Zhuoyao Palace where Concubine Dong lived caught fire after Concubine Dong was sent in.

When Murong Zheng heard the news, his face turned pale.

He looked at Concubine Jin, endured it again and again, and finally said: "You are too anxious."

"I said that if Akai was gone, I would do it." Concubine Jin looked at Murong Zheng's changed face and said with a smile.

"Then now..."

"Maybe it's retribution for doing too many bad things."

Murong Zheng didn't say anything else. From the moment he saw Concubine Jin, he found that he was always inferior to Concubine Jin.

Murong Zheng sighed, and quickly ordered the guards behind him to take people to put out the fire. He sat not far from Concubine Jin, watching Concubine Jin patiently touch Murong Kai's face.

Murong Zheng looked out the door from time to time, and he was also worried about Concubine Dong's life and death.

On one side was his son, and on the other side was his favorite concubine. He forced himself to stay with his son, but his heart was still completely occupied by Concubine Dong.

When Murong Zheng finally came back to his senses, he saw Concubine Jin looking at him. Her calm eyes, without any resentment, easily shattered his impulse to go to Zhuoyao Palace to take a look.
