Why Pretend to Be Ascetic? The Bullet Screen Says You Want to Force Me

In the third year of their marriage, Yue Li put an end to their distant and formal husband-and-wife relationship, proposing a divorce.

The bullet screen flashed: "If the villainous suppor...

Chapter 148 The Prime Minister’s Dream

Chapter 148 The Prime Minister’s Dream

"It is said that the new chieftain of Miaojiang is born with a mark. We don't know what the specific mark is, but you have a birthmark on your body, so you should know it."

Two daughters, one with a birthmark and one without.

They naturally want the one with the birthmark.

Yueli frowned and understood what the Prime Minister's wife meant.

Between her and the Xue family's other deceased daughter, she was the only one with a birthmark.

The Prime Minister's wife saw Yue Li in deep thought, so she hurried forward and said, "Li'er, please save me and your father because I have raised you for so many years."

She wanted to hold Yueli's hand.

However, Xie Lixing was right next to Yueli, so she didn't dare to go forward. She could only beg Yueli with eager eyes to show mercy.

"Madam Prime Minister, have you forgotten what you told me?" When she is no longer needed, she is not her parent, but when she is needed, she becomes her parent?

What they think is really beautiful.

"I came here today simply to make a deal with you. However, I'm not entirely satisfied with your answer. I'll go see the Prime Minister. If he's satisfied with my answer, I'll rescue you. If he's not, you'll be implicated by him."

After Yuli finished speaking, she left with the thank-you gift.

The Prime Minister's wife wanted to scold Yue Li for being shameless, but she didn't have the capital to yell at Yue Li now. She could only suppress her anger and watch Yue Li leave.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yueli went straight to the Dali Temple.

Yueli's status was noble, so the people in the Dali Temple did not dare to refuse to let her in.

Originally, Yueli thought that the prime minister was a prisoner and would not be treated so well.

But unexpectedly, he was treated quite well there.

There was wine and meat, and they were dressed neatly. They didn't look like they were being held captive at all, but more like they were on vacation.

Yueli's eyes were dark, she was not very happy, and at the same time, she felt that she would not get the answer she wanted from Chen Laodeng.

"The Prime Minister is in a good mood."

When you come to see the Prime Minister, the first thing you say is to express your gratitude.

He spoke with sarcasm, which was completely different from his tongue-tied image in front of Yueli.

This was not the first time Yueli had seen Xie Lixing act so sarcastic, but she still found it novel.

The contrast between how he behaved in front of her and now is so huge!

【Xie Lixing: You're the one who replaced my wife, right?】

【Xie Lixing: Lao Deng, prepare to die! 】

Xie Lixing: You've been eating and drinking like crazy in prison. You're done! Tomorrow I'll report you to the emperor and keep you locked up!

【Yueli: How come he eats so well here? 】

"The couple was supposed to have a fight tonight, but they were delayed by these two Chen family bosses! I'm going to throw rotten eggs at the Chen family bosses! Damn it!"

[Dear Penguin members, you don't want to see this! Members want to see Jiang Jiang Niang Niang! ]

[As long as you unlock the second floor of the Little Golden House, I will temporarily forgive you two]

The Prime Minister had already stopped what he was doing when the two appeared. He looked at Xie Lixing calmly and said, "As for how I am doing here, the Regent will not have to worry about it."

"Of course I am not here to bother you. I am here to... take a look at your situation." This matter will appear in the emperor's memorial tomorrow morning.

Upon hearing Xie Lixing's words, the Prime Minister's expression twisted for a moment.

Bitch!

He came here on purpose to humiliate him! He was going to tell tales!

"What's going on?" Xie Lixing stopped talking to the Prime Minister and looked at the jailer who led them here. "He's a serious criminal. How did you keep him incarcerated?!"

Faced with Xie Lixing's questioning, the jailer immediately knelt on the ground.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I was not aware of this. It was all ordered by the higher-ups."

Xie Lixing signaled to Lao Liu behind him.

Lao Liu carried the jailer outside, obviously to interrogate him.

After the jailer left, Xie Lixing entered with the key. When the prime minister was alert, he stepped forward and grabbed his neck. "I'll ask you once, why did you switch Yueli?"

Xie Lixing's expression turned grim when he put his hands around the prime minister's neck.

His eyes were cold and he showed no mercy when he attacked.

The Prime Minister originally wanted to annoy Xie Lixing, but Xie Lixing started with a killing move and didn't even give him a chance to say anything else.

The Prime Minister's ideas can only be thought about and cannot be put into action.

"You... let me go... like this... there's no way to tell..." The Prime Minister patted Xie Lixing's hand, signaling Xie Lixing to let him go.

Unfortunately, Xie Lixing won't be fooled.

"Isn't this outright?"

Seeing that there was no way to break free from Xie Lixing's grasp, he gave a reason that Yue Li had investigated before going to Feiyun Temple, "I... want her destiny as the daughter of the Heavenly Phoenix..."

This reason was discovered by Xie Lixing and his team, and what he said served as confirmation.

But Xie Lixing didn't believe it.

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Xie Lixing didn't believe a word of it.

He has been dealing with the Prime Minister for so long that he knows him very well.

If there is no certain result, he will not pay for it at all!

"Xie Lixing... I am an official appointed by the court..." Before the emperor issues an order to hold him accountable, Xie Lixing will be held accountable by the emperor if he takes any action!

Xie Lixing sneered, "I have many ways to torture you. Do I need to take your life myself?"

He came from a family of cruel officials.

What is a cruel official?

He is the one who does the dirty work for the emperor. As long as the emperor dislikes someone, he can take advantage of his power and retaliate against them!

The Prime Minister's eyes flickered, and he had to speak: "What I said is true..."

Xie Lixing was unmoved.

Finally, the prime minister had to give in.

"I...had a dream..." A dream about his daughter's life.

Hearing this, Xie Lixing loosened his grip and motioned him to continue.

Yueli's expression also became tense.

If she guessed correctly, it should be the plot described in the barrage. By replacing the two of them, her daughter can grow up in love and she can also get a future queen.

Why not?

"In my dream, I saw the direction of Yueli and Luer's lives, and the future they got after exchanging identities..." the prime minister explained slowly.

Xie Lixing didn't quite understand what the Prime Minister meant, but Yue Li did.

However, Xie Lixing knew why the Prime Minister did this. He frowned and said, "Chen Chaolu's future can only be better if she switches identities with Yueli?"

Yueli could hear the anger in Xie Lixing's tone.

He couldn't understand why the innocent Yueli should be involved just because of a dream!

Chen Chaolu lived a good life in the Xue family. Even in the kiln, the Xue family never let her suffer too much! But! His Li'er suffered every day in the Chen family!

Aren’t they afraid of being struck by lightning for doing this?

At this moment, Xie Lixing hoped extremely that God would punish the Prime Minister and his wife as they deserved!

"Well... life will be very good..." The Prime Minister's neck was still in Xie Lixing's hands, so he could only answer honestly.
