In just five years, He Lin not only won over Mr. Qin, who had taught him in his youth, but also won over Grand Tutor Gao in the imperial court.
And with her outstanding appearance and extraordinary temperament, she attracted Miss Qin and Miss Gao one after the other.
And so, he and Miss Gao, half-heartedly, ended up having physical intimacy.
This kind of thing had never happened to Li Wenshu before.
If he dares to do such a thing, Li Wenshu will definitely beat him senseless.
He Lin fully demonstrated his potential as a scumbag.
Originally, Grand Tutor Gao was a member of the First Prince's faction. He had once taught He Lin a lesson that left him bruised and battered for the sake of his daughter. However, he couldn't resist his daughter's affection for him, so he had no choice but to switch his allegiance to the Second Prince.
Miss Qin is an introverted person, but she became devoted to He Lin because of his sweet words.
Moreover, it wasn't just Miss Qin and Miss Gao; many daughters of high-ranking officials also harbored feelings for He Lin.
It should be said that He Lin's charisma is so captivating that women would be completely mesmerized by him.
The two young ladies, Qin and Gao, were even jealous of each other because of He Lin.
He Lin, seizing the opportunity, accepted both offers.
However, both young ladies wanted to become the Second Prince's principal wife.
He Lin thought for a moment,
Then let him have two concubines, both of whom will be his principal wives.
The two women readily accepted this.
At the very least, she managed to secure the status of the principal wife.
Which royal man doesn't have a multitude of wives and concubines? How could there be any logic in marrying only one woman?
Gu Qian ridiculed He Lin a lot for this, and also got into fights with him quite often.
He Lin was despicable and vile, and Gu Qian was powerless against him.
He thought that after all these years, his cousin should have forgotten He Lin.
At this time, Li Wenshu was unaware of the situation.
She had long ago been exiled to the land of Baiyang along with her father and parents.
Li Wenshu was still dreaming of He Lin coming to marry her.
Over the course of five years, Li Zheng, due to his status as a prisoner, was forced to perform menial tasks such as building city walls.
He did not resist, and thus became increasingly silent.
Ye Qiuyun, who was once a high-ranking general's wife, has been reduced to an ordinary country woman.
She used to know nothing, and because of that, she suffered a lot and endured a lot of hardship.
But she had no complaints in front of Li Zheng.
At least, the three of them are still together, and that's enough.
During this period, His Majesty began to consider establishing an heir.
The reason he delayed establishing an heir was because he feared that Prince Rui would become arrogant and complacent; therefore, he wanted to give him experience and training.
Furthermore, he did not want the other princes to secretly harm his eldest son.
However, a proper morning court session,
Prince Rui, however, was impeached by Grand Tutor Gao, who was always close to him.
It is said that he frequented brothels all day long, living a life of debauchery and immorality.
The eldest prince was innocent, but Grand Tutor Gao wrote in his memorial that a courtesan had testified to him, his purpose being to leave Prince Rui speechless.
His Majesty, of course, did not believe this and even went to the brothel to verify it himself.
Upon investigation, he flew into a rage, shut down the brothel, and confined the eldest prince to his quarters.
The eldest prince was left speechless with resentment, thinking he would wait until things calmed down before properly gathering evidence for himself.
However, his second memorial was soon delivered to His Majesty.
It is said that he will soon force the emperor to abdicate and rebel.
The reason was that he had heard that His Majesty was going to abandon his choice of heir apparent.
This matter has touched His Majesty's sore spot.
He extended the Crown Prince's confinement period and began to investigate personally.
Upon investigation, His Majesty discovered that the eldest prince was raising a private army outside the capital.
In fact, those so-called private soldiers were all the Crown Prince's former personal guards.
The eldest prince was wrongly accused, but could not find out who had framed him. In a fit of anger, he launched a coup.
