Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 758: Feed on your Flesh

Chapter 758: Feed on your Flesh

"I am also brutal, Sheng Li," Mingze said with a smirk.

"You indeed have changed, Sheng Li. I thought it was all a rumor. I cannot believe that your woman made you this weak," Mingze p.r.o.nounced.

"Shut your mouth, Mingze. You already have crossed your limits," Sheng Li warned him and looked at Xiao Zhan.

"Even in times of trouble, you do not forget to act mighty. This is the most annoying thing about you," Mingze stated. "Now, drop your weapon, else this sword be inside the flesh of Xiao Zhan," he threatened Sheng Li, who threw the sword.

With a loud clang, it hit the ground. "Remove your filthy foot from Xiao Zhan's chest. Don't fight like a coward before me," Sheng Li stated. He found his eyes getting heavy, but he could not let himself faint.

Lian Zoumu came forward. "I never knew the Emperor would surrender this easily," he p.r.o.nounced and scoffed at him.

Sheng Li did not respond to him and kept his gaze fixed on Mingze, who moved his foot down to Xiao Zhan's throat. He tried to strangulate him when he heard Sheng Li.

"Mingze, I don't like cowards. Your acts make me sick," Sheng Li affirmed when Mingze came near him. He pointed his sword under Sheng Li's chin and glared into his eyes.

"Sheng Li, I am not a coward." Mingze gritted his teeth. "Your life is in my hands. Your wife can turn into a widow if I kill you right at this moment," Mingze affirmed. Sheng Li gripped the sharp edge of the sword's blade and pushed him back.

"Mingze, don't drag my woman in this fight. I can turn into a madman for her. I will make sure to throw you in prison, full of hungry dogs, ready to feed on your flesh," Sheng Li said with a menacing expression.

"You are forgetting that the First Prince and my two other Commanders are still out of your reach. You should not do anything which will break your dream to rule over Changying. Don't undermine me," Sheng Li's words were enough to make Mingze a little insecure.

Sheng Li knew that Mingze would not kill him. Not this way!

Mingze started to laugh which confused Sheng Li.

"Forgive me for that abrupt laughter, Sheng Li," Mingze apologized.

"The First Prince hates you. The entire Wei Family does. Since when did you start to trust him? How could you forget he once betrayed the former Emperor? Your Second Brother betrayed you. The entire Royal Family is an enemy to each other. It's great to see that you are still alive," Mingze stated and smirked.

Jian Guozhi and Commander Yao, who were still near the resthouse, decided to bring the forces there. Jian Guozhi heard how Mingze was talking about him. It didn't surprise him that outsiders thought this way o

f him.

"The Emperor thinks that Mingze will take them to the residence," Commander Yao stated.

"But Mingze also knows that if he takes the Emperor out, he might get killed. The soldiers can reach the rest house earlier than the residence," Jian Guozhi a.s.serted.

Commander Yao nodded.

"Let's be ready for both situations. Send one section of soldiers to surround the residence and another here," Jian Guozhi commanded him. Commander Yao acted accordingly and left the place to bring the soldiers.

Jian Guozhi, oppositely, thought to go in to save Sheng Li. He recalled how at the numerous events Sheng Li threw himself at the pit of fire to save them. As the eldest brother, it was his duty to save him.

Indeed, Sheng Li had made the plan, and he wanted him to act that way. However, it could also cost Sheng Li's life. He once, like a coward, ran away instead of saving his father's life. Luckily, that day, Sheng Li acted smartly and Han Wenji was saved.

Jian Guozhi did not want to repeat the same mistake twice.

"Tie him up," Mingze told his soldiers, who were feared to go near Sheng Li which made him chuckle.

"I will kill you all along with your families," Mingze threatened them.

"What good will happen to tie the Emperor?" Jian Guozhi said, who had focussed the arrow towards Mingze. Sheng Li was surprised to see him. He had told Jian Guozhi to not come out until Mingze took him to the residence.

"What will happen if this arrow hits the center of your head, Mingze?" Jian Guozhi asked him and then gazed at Sheng Li.

"I could not run away," Jian Guozhi stated. "Drop your weapon. Don't even think to harm the Emperor, else this arrow will pierce straight through your forehead," Jian Guozhi a.s.serted.

"In my veins, the Han family blood flows before the Wei family. You are right, Mingze. I betrayed my father and ran away. I have gotten the chance to prove my loyalty," Jian Guozhi said in a loud enough voice.

Mingze got terrified when the soldiers from Han arrived and started to shoot arrows. Many of his soldiers died while Lian Zoumu ran away to save his life.

Sheng Li's reflex acted sharply and he s.n.a.t.c.hed the sword from Mingze's hand. Though his chin got a cut and blood oozed out.

"Why did you act this foolishly, Mingze?" Sheng Li locked his head between his arms and told everyone to stop.

Jian Guozhi came to them and told Commander Yao to tie Mingze, who came with a rope in his hands. Mingze was tied to the pole.

Sheng Li walked to him. "So, what were you saying, Mingze? I told you to not act reckless

ly," he said and frowned.
