Chapter 444: Even Being in a Wheelchair Doesn’t Stop Me from Beating My Brother

"Brother Yan." Pei Yunjian called out helplessly. It would be fine at other times, but now that it was a matter of life and death, how could Yan Chengtao still be in the mood to tease them?

The guards were already approaching, leaving the three of them with no escape. Yan Chengtao closed his eyes in fear, "Grandpa, little one, will go first. You guys..."

Before he could finish his last words, the ropes around his body suddenly loosened. It turned out that Ren Qingxia had broken the ropes with great effort and started fighting with the guards.

Chu Shangming was startled and raised his leg to stop the fight, but suddenly he felt a chill on his neck. A gorgeous yet sharp dagger was pressed against his neck, leaving a line of blood.

*

[Fuck! How come this fourth prince changes his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book? He was just calling my brother a benefactor, but now he has a knife at his neck?]

[Ahhhhh!!! City Lord Jiang, why haven't you come yet... Ah! Here they come! Reinforcements are here!!]

[The fight started! ! ]

Chu Liuzheng bit his lip unconsciously, his eyes fixed on the system interface, his hands clenched tightly, and he was even more nervous than the person involved.

Seeing that she had been paying attention to things thousands of miles away all morning and hadn't said a word to him, Xiao Jingfan couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied.

Even if Hu Ke suddenly appeared, with King Xiao here, as well as the men Xie Hui brought with him, plus Jiang Yao, Zhuang Linghan and the people from Guiyun City, those four people would not be in any danger. Why should they be so nervous?

He waved his hand to order everyone else to leave, then sat down next to Chu Liuzheng and asked knowingly, "What are you thinking about?"

"Ah!" Chu Liuzheng screamed in fright, staring at the emperor with wide eyes.

[Is Tyrant a cat? He walks without making any noise!]

Xiao Jingfan raised his eyebrows: "Hmm?"

"I'm thinking about what to eat for lunch," Chu Liuzheng quickly made up an excuse. She turned her head and glanced at the imperial desk, noting that there were still quite a few memorials left. So, she asked casually, "Are you not going to review the memorials anymore?"

"I don't know when I hired a supervisor." Xiao Jingfan raised his hand and tucked a strand of hair that had fallen by her ear behind her ear, his tone hinting at teasing.

[Tsk tsk, who's the one who stays up all night every day to finish reviewing memorials? I have free time now, so why not do more? I have things to do in the afternoon. If I delay it until the evening, I'll have to stay up late again. Even if I'm naturally beautiful, I can't stand this kind of hardship!]

"I don't deserve your words." Chu Liuzheng didn't want to face the emperor with dark circles under his eyes. For the sake of her own eyes, she gently reminded him, "You have to go to the Ministry of Works and the Dali Temple for inspection this afternoon. It will take at least an hour. You mentioned it yesterday, but have you forgotten?"

[Hurry up and get back to work! Don't bother me while I'm eating melon! !]

Xiao Jingfan naturally didn't forget, but when he wanted to make a joke, the other party was serious and he felt disgusted in his heart, which was a bit boring.

"I'm afraid there's no supervisor in this world who's more dedicated and courageous than you."

He stood up and wanted to continue working, but his hanging hands were grabbed by a pair of softer and whiter hands, and a piece of sweet and fragrant mung bean cake was fed to him.

Chu Liuzheng raised his face, his eyes curved and full of smiles: "You've been busy for so long, please have some snacks first."

Xiao Jingfan opened his mouth and bit off half of her hand.

The imperial chef's cooking skills were undoubtedly excellent, but he felt that today's dessert had too much sugar in it, making it taste awfully sweet. So he took a few sips of tea, and when the next dessert was served, he ate it without hesitation.

[Eating too much won't make you gain weight, eating too little will make you lose weight. How many girls will envy the Tyrant's physique~]

[It’s better to gain some weight, otherwise I won’t be able to touch my muscles if they are gone.]

Chu Liuzheng openly abused his power for personal gain and forced the man to eat half a plate of snacks and fruits, and only let him go when he felt that he had enough.

Xiao Jingfan was feeling lazy and leaned against her, not wanting to move.

Chu Liuzheng, a former worker, could empathize with this sudden boredom with work. She had wanted to drop a tea bowl on the emperor's head countless times before.

She thought for a moment and then coaxed the emperor softly, "Shall I accompany you to the Moon Pond?"

"No." Xiao Jingfan raised his eyelids lazily, staring at her with his deep eyes.

Chu Liuzheng:?

She glanced around the hall, seeing no one there, so she tentatively leaned over and kissed the emperor on his thin, crimson lips.

Xiao Jingfan held the person on his lap and snorted, seeming quite satisfied.

[Tsk tsk, if you want to kiss me, just say it directly, and you're even hinting at it.]

Chu Liuzheng's eyes moved, he held back his laughter and raised his hands to hug the emperor's neck, tilted his face up, gave him a kiss, another kiss, a kiss and a bite. With the emperor's connivance, he committed indecent acts in broad daylight, which was simply outrageous.

His Majesty the Emperor was quite satisfied with being molested and was finally willing to return to his job.

Chu Liuzheng was also quite satisfied. He had appeased the person and could finally continue to enjoy the melon.

However, after being interrupted by the emperor, her nervousness disappeared and she quickly read the live broadcast.

A lot has happened in such a short time.

As expected of a woman who became a city lord through her own strength, she cut through the chopping blocks with ease. The Fourth Prince's men were no match for City Lord Jiang. Tong Niang and Young Master Cang were also very capable. It's just that Lord Xie arrived a little late, and the fight was already over, leaving him to clean up the mess.

[Eh? Wait a minute! Big brother, I already have a fiancé and we're getting married soon. You can't fall in love at first sight! ! Who says you have to repay a life-saving favor with your body? Even working like a slave is fine!]

"Hey, Master Cang, stop picking up the wedding candy you dropped. My big brother is trying to poach you. Stop him now!"

[Yes, yes, that's right, Master Cang did a great job! Hahahaha, big brother, you have come to this day!]

Chu Liuzheng laughed in his heart for a while, then suddenly realized what was going on.

[Uh...did I just build my happiness on my brother's pain?]

She quietly touched her conscience, which didn't hurt at all.

"Well, a short pain is better than a long one. I'm doing this for Big Brother's own good! They're in love, how can a man be the third party? Yeah! I definitely don't mean to watch the fun!"

Xiao Jingfan glanced at her secretly, thinking that this woman just wanted to watch the fun.

Chu Liuzheng continued to scroll down.

[Tsk tsk, there's really no suspense at all. The Fourth Prince was captured just like that. I wonder what King Xiao plans to do with him.]

[By the way, how's things going with Prince Xiao? Did they catch Prince Li, who took the opportunity to escape?]

[Wow! Prince Li is in such a pity! Even in a wheelchair, Prince Xiao still beats his brother. He's been beaten so badly that the system says he's incorrigible. Tsk tsk tsk, now it's time for him to reveal City Lord Zhuang's antidote, right?]

[He's so ambitious but incompetent. He hasn't even figured out what a prince is, yet he's thinking of rebelling and dividing the empire with foreigners. I've never seen someone so eager to dig a hole for himself. At least Prince Rencheng knows that the throne belongs only to his family.]

Thinking of Prince Cheng, Chu Liuzheng suddenly remembered that she had not paid attention to Prince Cheng's news for a long time.

[Speaking of which, after Yin Lanci died, the beauties she gave to Prince Cheng should have died just like the fake Prince Rui in the palace, right? Doesn't Prince Cheng need to be a puppet anymore?]

She closed the live broadcast and started flipping through it.

[There's been quite a lot of news. It's been over a month now. The Tyrant's men have already found the little grandson and are bringing him back. The news of Yin Lanci's death should have reached Prince Cheng and the Dragon Shadow Guards by now, right?]
