Chapter 4 The Reborn Concubine's Vicious Eldest Sister (The End)

Two weeks later,

Luo Xi ran into Prince Li on South Street...

Teahouse

Luo Xi took a sip of tea, then her gaze fell on the extremely "composed" Prince Li across from her. After a moment of silence, she said, "I heard that the Emperor wants you to marry the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family as Princess Li?"

Prince Li nodded, not hiding anything from her, "Yes, but I didn't agree."

The person he loved from beginning to end was her.

Luo Xi thought of something and asked, "Were you punished?"

The expression on Prince Li's face instantly turned pitiful. He plopped down next to Luo Xi and said, "Yes, I was punished. He had the guards beat me with a full 20 strokes of the cane."

"It hurt so much, I almost couldn't get out of bed this morning."

Luo Xi: "......."

Twenty strokes of the cane, that's a bit "too much".

However, looking at the energetic and rosy-cheeked man, she was skeptical of his earlier statement that he had almost been unable to get up that morning.

It definitely hurts. But it probably doesn't hurt as much as he described.

Luo Xi wore a worried expression. "Is he really that badly injured?"

Seeing that Luo Xi was distressed, King Li stopped pretending and hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "It's fake, it's fake."

He raised his chin and said arrogantly, "Twenty strokes of the cane is nothing. I'm thick-skinned and it won't hurt me at all."

Luo Xi: "........."

Suddenly, Prince Li said, "Although I refused, someone like my father might ignore my refusal and issue a decree to grant the marriage."

He touched Luo Xi's hand. "Xi'er, don't worry, I won't marry anyone else."

"The position of Princess Consort Li is yours, and it can only be yours."

Luo Xi looked at Prince Li and asked seriously, "If the Emperor insists on issuing an edict to bestow a marriage upon you and the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family, what will you do?"

King Li leaned closer to Luo Xi and whispered something to her.

Luo Xi: !!!

King Li: "Trust me."

If his father dared to issue an edict, he would dare to rebel ahead of time.

Three days later

Royal Palace

The emperor's face grew more and more gloomy each day.

He's been very upset lately because the crown prince has mysteriously disappeared and he can't find him no matter what he does.

The Crown Prince's men said they lured away the guards at General Luo's residence, and the Crown Prince secretly entered General Luo's residence alone. After that, he disappeared without a trace.

The emperor didn't care why the crown prince had secretly entered General Luo's mansion; he only wanted to know the crown prince's whereabouts.

He sent people to search General Luo's mansion, but they found nothing.

That day, thieves did indeed break into General Luo's mansion and kill his second daughter. As for the thieves, they escaped.

The emperor naturally could not admit that the thief was the crown prince.

He sent many people to search for him, but they have not found him to this day.

The Emperor knew about Prince Li's affair with the eldest daughter of the Luo family.

He admitted that he was taking his anger out on General Luo's family because of the Crown Prince's affair. Therefore, he wanted to issue an imperial decree to bestow a marriage upon Prince Li and the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family...

He originally intended to issue the decree directly, but was delayed by some matters.

Now, it's time to issue the decree.

He was just about to write the imperial edict when the Minister of Revenue requested an audience. Upon seeing him, the Emperor forgot all about the matter.

Two months later,

The Emperor knew that his sons were restless, and now that the Crown Prince was missing, they were even more eager to cause trouble.

He feigned serious illness and refused to attend court, hoping to see if his sons would rebel.

The spies that Prince Li planted around the emperor caused the emperor to fall seriously ill despite feigning illness.

Luo's father helped King Li rebel and killed the emperor.

As for the other princes, they were naturally dead as well. Being in the royal family, there was little familial affection to begin with.

Finally, King Li ascended the throne and made Luo Xi his empress.

After that, Luo Xi was the only woman in King Li's harem... (The End)

Luo Qian:

Luo Qian was extremely jealous when she saw that Luo Xi had become empress and that she was the only one in the Prince Li's harem. "God, can I be reborn again, just once?"

This time, she won't save the Crown Prince; she'll try to win over King Li.

Later, Luo Qian was reborn again, at the same point in time.

On the second day after her rebirth, she simply went out, hoping to run into Prince Li.

She did see King Li, but she stumbled upon him being assassinated by assassins, who mistakenly killed her instead.

And just like that, she died again...
