Chapter 458 Joy of Life 14
This made Li Yunrui feel aggrieved, and it also confirmed that Emperor Qing wanted to abandon him, so he couldn't help but have the idea of taking action to get rid of Fan Xian.
Hearing her confident answer, Li Chengqian's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Aunt, are you so confident that Fan Xian can't take over the Imperial Treasury?"
"Of course," Li Yunrui replied decisively, a hint of almost obsessive madness flashing in his eyes.
She did so many shady things for His Majesty, how could His Majesty just kick her aside like that?
No!
In this world, she is the best and most useful person to His Majesty, and no one can replace her.
Seeing Li Yunrui's resolute attitude, Li Chengqian's unease lessened slightly, but he still couldn't help but probe, "I really don't understand how Fan Jian managed to bewitch His Majesty to the point that His Majesty agreed to betroth Wan'er to Fan Xian. Humph! He's just an illegitimate child, how could he be worthy of Wan'er? It's truly a disservice to Wan'er."
Li Yunrui's eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously drooped down slightly: "Yes, Wan'er has indeed been wronged."
Double entendre.
Li Chengqian couldn't figure out whether Li Yunrui was indignant that Lin Wan'er was about to marry an illegitimate child, or sighing because his daughter was about to lose her fiancé.
Or perhaps both?
However, after seeing the shadows creeping over her face, Li Chengqian had a better understanding of the situation.
He stole a few more glances at the stunningly beautiful woman before taking his leave, satisfied.
After Li Chengqian left, Li Yunrui's eyes became even more crazed, her pretty face twisted and ferocious with rage:
"Bitch! They're all bitches!"
Chen Pingping planted people in the Imperial Treasury, and Fan Jian instigated His Majesty to take over the Imperial Treasury. They just couldn't stand the thought of me being close to my brother, and they couldn't stand the thought of me being useful to my brother.
Both of them are despicable, and so is Fan Xian, they're all!
A murderous glint flashed in Li Yunrui's eyes, but it quickly turned into sorrow. Her curvaceous body slumped weakly on the couch, her gaze fixed affectionately on the direction of Emperor Qing's palace, a pitiful sight on her face, her mournful eyes tinged with a hint of infatuation.
"Brother, why don't you understand? I'm the only one in this world who loves you the most! Only me! No one can treat you better than me!"
After a moment, Li Yunrui seemed to remember something, a smile appeared on her lips, and she quickly regained her usual composure and calmness.
Li Chengze, who saw the whole thing with his telekinesis: ? ? ?
Li Yunrui's mental illness flared up too quickly; by the time Li Chengze realized what had happened, it was already too late.
Li Chengze: Li Yunrui@@&%**&¥Li Yunqian%¥@@%%¥%This group of crazy people¥@%@%¥
Li Chengze, who had been knocked offline again, originally planned to use his telekinesis to investigate Emperor Qing's situation. However, after learning about Li Yunrui's ulterior motives towards Emperor Qing, he could no longer face Emperor Qing directly.
Despite his severe emotional blow, he used his telekinetic powers to follow the Crown Prince out of the palace, intending to see what the Crown Prince would do next.
Unexpectedly, the crown prince's actions were even more outrageous.
After leaving the palace, the Crown Prince did not return to his residence immediately. Instead, he wandered around to a brothel and, familiar with the place, chose a girl.
Li Chengze: ...
Alright! It's no secret that the Crown Prince likes to come to places like this.
However, choosing to come here at this sensitive time, well...
It seems I really overestimated the Crown Prince.
With such an opponent, how could I not achieve my great ambition?
Li Chengze had no interest in watching this and was about to withdraw his mental power when he saw the Crown Prince cover the girl's face with a blanket. Amidst heavy breathing, the man mumbled two words to the woman beneath him: "Yun... Rui..."
Li Chengze: ...
Li Chengze seemed to be struck by lightning, his eyes wide open, his mind filled with shock and confusion.
Aaaaaah!!!!!!
What did he hear?
Yunrui?
Does this refer to Li Yunrui?
Li Chengqian actually had improper thoughts about Li Yunrui?
what?
Is this correct? Is this correct?
Li Yunrui is infatuated with Emperor Qing, and Li Chengqian is infatuated with Li Yunrui.
They're like this...
Ahhh! ! !
Having been so agitated that he lost the ability to speak, Li Chengze quickly withdrew his mental power and sat up somewhat dazedly.
At this moment, he wished he could slap himself twice, regretting why he had used his telekinetic powers to investigate the prince's whereabouts.
Otherwise, where would we see such a thing?
Li Chengqian, you bastard!
How could he have seen something like this?!
This is even more unacceptable than the original Yin Luoxia and her apprentice, and Lei Hong.
Li Chengze felt like the sky had fallen.
He simply couldn't comprehend that such an absurd thing could exist in this world. Was this the retribution for his abuse of his mental power?
Li Chengze sat there in a daze for the entire afternoon, unable to sift through his chaotic thoughts and extract any useful information.
As night fell, when the servants came to inquire about the dinner arrangements, he dismissed them with a dismissive wave.
Because right now, he has absolutely no interest in eating.
To heal his wounded spirit, Li Chengze personally devised a comprehensive strategy to strike back at Li Chengqian overnight.
The next morning at court, Li Chengze, who had been repeatedly attacked the previous day and had not slept all night, looked particularly haggard, a stark contrast to the Crown Prince who was full of energy after venting his anger the day before.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Qing, seated high on his dragon throne, couldn't help but frown slightly. He then turned to the radiant Crown Prince, secretly feeling relieved.
It seems that the fact that the second prince forced the crown prince to sleepless nights a few days ago was entirely a coincidence.
I've only just arranged the marriage for Lin Wan'er, and my second son can't hold back anymore. In just one day, he's already become like this. He's really so weak.
On the other hand, the Crown Prince was in surprisingly good condition and seemed to have grown.
However, the thought of the Crown Prince's visit to brothels yesterday fueled Emperor Qing's anger.
The Crown Prince really isn't picky; he can bring himself to sleep with any kind of woman.
The capital is full of noble ladies, and the palace is filled with countless female officials and maids. Why does the Crown Prince prefer women from such a lowly place?
It's such a waste of all my years of careful cultivation.
It seems we still need to give the Empress a good talking-to and make her keep an eye on the Crown Prince.
He didn't want future historical records to show that the crown prince of Qing Kingdom frequented brothels.
Emperor Qing pondered for a moment, scrutinizing his two sons below once more. Catching Li Chengze's evasive gaze, avoiding his eye contact, he thought to himself: "My second son is now terrified of me; he's no longer fit to be the Crown Prince's whetstone. It seems my decision to summon Fan Xian to the capital was indeed very wise."
And seeing Emperor Qing below immediately brings to mind Li Yunrui's Li Chengze: ...
