Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1709

1709 All Settled 1

The Eldest Prince had spent much of his childhood living on the outskirts of the kingdom, only returning to the capital at the King’s summons when he was nearly thirty years old. It was then that he was given a Princess Consort.

Zhou Huaijin had little opportunity to interact with the Eldest Prince when he was younger, and as a result, knew very little about him. However, after his return to the capital, Zhou Huaijin had spent some time in his company.

Zhou Huaijin’s impression of the Eldest Prince was that he was like a walking corpse, devoid of any real emotions. He always seemed weak and frightened, as if constantly worried about being killed or executed.

Zhou Huaijin had witnessed the Eldest Prince’s joy at the birth of his first child, but it paled in comparison to the sheer elation he displayed now.

Today was likely the first time in his life that the Eldest Prince had allowed himself to express his emotions so freely.

Zhou Huaijin was taken aback by the Eldest Prince’s sudden outburst of emotion. He felt a certain kins.h.i.+p with the Eldest Prince, despite their differences.

To his surprise, the Eldest Prince seemed to be the most excited about the rebels’ victory.

However, his excitement was short-lived, as he quickly regained his composure and turned to face Zhou Huaijin.

“Eighth Brother, I have killed the King. You can execute me now. I have nothing left to live for,” he said in a flat tone.

The Eldest Prince was very excited when he asked for the request.

Zhou Huaijin reached out to the Elder Prince, saying, “Elder Brother, go back to your mansion and have a good rest. Come to the palace for morning sessions!”

” “…”

“That is all for tonight.”

“….”

“I am not going to execute you because of this.”

Zhou Huaiyan was very surprised, but not beyond his utter expectation.

It seemed that only Eighth Brother ever cared about him after he moved back to the capital.

In this case, he would save his life for the Eighth Brother, so he would give that back to him whenever he needed it, without hesitation.

Zhou Huaijin nodded and told the Eldest Prince to leave.

Zhou Huaiyan had just left Weiyang Palace, and Zhou Huaijin turned to Gu Chaoyan, taking her hands and saying, “Let’s head to the palace gate and ask the imperial army to lay down their weapons. From now on, the Saint Divine Land will be under our control. I vow to do everything in my power to protect the people and give them a peaceful life, despite the chaos that surrounds us.”

” “…”

“Chaoyan, would you like to join me?”

“….”

“Together?” Zhou Huaijin asked resolutely.

“Yes.” Gu Chaoyan took his hands and they walked forward.

Due to the intervention of the Shadow Door, the court had been restored to a semblance of order. Most of the officials had resumed their positions and were busy with their duties.

However, as they approached the gate, they could still hear the sound of weapons being brandished. Gu Chaoyan wrinkled her nose as she caught the scent of blood in the air.

Zhou Huaijin stopped at a place not very far away.

He had one silver mask in one hand and the other holding Gu Chaoyan’s hands. Behind them were hidden guards from the Shadow Door. He said with his resolute voice, “The King is dead. If you drop the weapons now, all will be back to normal instantly. If not, you will die at the gate forever.”

Zhou Huaijin’s voice quieted down the fight.

The imperial army looked at Zhou Huaijin. Behind Zhou Huaijin were numerous hidden guards from the Shadow Door. And he had the silver mask in his hands.
