Li Shu's eyes darkened slightly, and he sneered, "I remember that before I developed a plant that could reduce the risk of Star Beasts, the Star Beasts that exceeded the safety line would eventually become wild beasts and meet their death."
"Your Highness Qiao Lusi, as the crown prince and the future ruler of the empire, these star beasts should be your people. At this time, shouldn't you be the one to figure out how to save your people? You've put the lives of all the star beasts on my shoulders and pushed me into the position of savior. Do you want me to take your place?"
When Qiao Lu heard this, the expression on his face instantly became extremely ugly, "Don't even think about it!"
At this time, Qiao Lu had already realized that Li Shu's behavior just now was all a disguise.
This made him realize that he had underestimated Li Shu. If it was any other time and he saw someone pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, he would still be in the mood to join in the fun and watch the show.
But if you are the one being fooled, your mood will become extremely bad!
He looked at Li Shu coldly, "Mr. Li, you are so determined to refuse. Aren't you worried that I will force you to go?"
Li Shu's expression remained unchanged. He shrugged with a smile and said, "I believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a smart man and knows what can and cannot be done."
"Just now, when I came here, I was so excited that I publicly announced that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had invited me to be his guest. If something really happened to me, everyone would immediately suspect you."
Li Shu paused here and continued, "Even if they prove your innocence, they will still stain you with many stains, and such stains can easily be used by your adult brothers and sisters as a weapon to bring you down. After all, only when you fall can they legitimately compete with you for the throne, right?"
Li Shu's words made Qiao Lu's expression even gloomier. He looked at Li Shu coldly with a glare in his eyes. "Yes, you are indeed a man who can develop special plants. I actually thought you just happened to cause the plants to mutate, but now it seems that you are indeed not simple. I underestimated you!"
Li Shu still had a smile on his face when he asked, "Do you want me to thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his affirmation of me?"
Qiao Lu snorted coldly, his expression full of rejection.
Li Shu didn't care about the other person's expression. He glanced at the time and said, "Your Highness, it's getting late. Should I go back?"
Qiao Lu really wanted to strangle this overbearing guy to death, but just like Li Shu said, he couldn't touch him at all now!
He could only watch the other person leave his sight with frustration.
Qiao Lusi looked at Li Shu's departing back, his eyes bloodshot. After a while, he said coldly in the deserted room, "Keep an eye on him. Once you get the plant cultivation method from him, chop him down for me!"
He was answered by the clear cry of a bird.
…
Li Shu came out of Qiao Lu's room and couldn't help but sigh helplessly. He had originally wanted to play the pig and eat the tiger, or pretend to be a grandson in front of Qiao Lu until he left.
But he didn't expect that the other party came here to find him.
In this situation, if he continues to pretend, he will probably be torn into pieces by these guys!
Now he and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have become enemies, and this guy has to stay on the planet Lido for a month. If he wants to save his life, he must make careful plans during this period.
At this time, he subconsciously thought of Howie. He believed that Howie could find a way to solve the current predicament.
Just as he was about to think of a way to get rid of the star beast behind him and go find Howie, a text message suddenly came to his light brain.
It was a text message from the warden. He pressed the answer button and the warden's projection appeared in front of him.
The warden glanced at the environment behind Li Shu and frowned slightly, "Where are you?"
Li Shu blinked and then said, "Just now when I got off work, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invited me to dinner, and I just came out of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's bedroom."
Upon hearing this, Qiao En's expression suddenly changed, and he looked a little nervous. "Did you go to the prince's bedroom just now? Are you okay?"
Li Shu saw the worry in the warden's eyes, felt a little warm, and chuckled softly, "I'm fine."
The warden's frayed nerves finally relaxed considerably. He exhaled lightly and said, "Li Shu, although you will soon be knighted, you are only the youngest baron after all. Even if you are willing to serve His Royal Highness, you probably won't be able to contribute much. So, please stop doing unnecessary things."
The words he said seemed to show no mercy to others, but the worry in his eyes and tone showed the warden's attitude. He was a little worried about Li Shu, worried that Li Shu would get too close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and encounter some bad things.
Li Shu likes the feeling of being cared for, which makes his heart feel warm.
He curled his lips and said, "Don't worry, I know what I can and cannot do, and I will definitely not disappoint the warden's expectations."
Seeing that Li Shu understood his hidden meaning, Qiao En's expression relaxed, and he looked a little relieved.
Li Shu smiled helplessly, then took the initiative to ask, "Warden, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Jon finally came back to his senses and said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "I almost forgot. The reason I came to you this time is because we are running out of plants. I need you to collect more plants."
Li Shu was surprised when he heard this, "No more? How is that possible? Didn't I just take out nearly 150,000 plants two days ago?"
When he knew Qiao Lu was coming, he was worried that his superpowers would be exposed to him. So, under Huo Wei's protection, he drained all his superpowers and gave birth to nearly 150,000 plants. How could it be consumed so quickly?
Upon hearing this, Jon sighed helplessly and said, "Our prison and your live broadcast room really can't consume so many plants. However, these two days are the delivery dates for the orders with the other two prisons, and they suddenly asked for two months' supply. So with all this going on, we don't have many plants left."
Li Shu: "..."
He paused for a moment before asking, "How many are left now?"
"The amount in the prison is still enough for daily use, but the amount in your live broadcast room is gone, so now you have to transport the plants here before tomorrow afternoon."
Li Shu: "..."
He wanted to, but there was a star beast next to him staring at him, so he had no way of making the plant appear out of thin air!
