After collapsing, Lu Shuyun turned around and retreated nonstop.
While retreating, he said, "Whose person are you? If you come over to my side, once I go to Qi Country, I will surely have my Uncle grant you ten thousand taels of gold. If I ascend to the throne someday, I will make you a Duke!!!"
Hearing Lu Shuyun's words, Liang Zong laughed and said, "Crown Prince, I'm not Chu Hongfei—I won't be easily swayed by the grand promises you paint."
At this, Liang Zong was about to take action when Lu Shuyun quickly said, "I am the Crown Prince! You can't kill me! Even if I have rebelled, I am still the Crown Prince appointed by the Sum Emperor. If you kill me, you won't meet a good end!"
Liang Zong paid no attention to Lu Shuyun's words and brought his sword down in a swift arc. The flash of the sword passed, and Lu Shuyun's body slowly fell to the ground, though he still retained a sliver of consciousness.
