Chapter 145 The fake heiress refuses to be the legitimate wife and insists on being a concubine?
Prince Yun was annoyed: "All of you, shut up!"
Li Qingzhu shuddered and leaned against Prince Yun.
“Your Highness, you see... everything that Zhu’er was worried about has indeed come true.”
"Fortunately, Zhu'er has the Prince's favor, and Zhu'er is not alone in this world."
Li Qingzhu shed tears as large as pearls, continuing to rely on Prince Yun.
Prince Yun affectionately patted her head.
"Pearl, I am well aware of this matter. Rest assured, I will never abandon you!"
After speaking, Prince Yun looked fiercely at the group of people in front of him.
"I have indeed fallen in love with Zhu'er. This should be an honor for your entire family. General Li, what are you doing, full of resentment? Could it be that you no longer regard me as worthy of your attention?"
Li Chaojing gave a bitter smile.
Now that things have come to this, he cannot accept it, and can only accept the reality before him.
"Your subject would not dare! But I wonder if Your Highness wishes to take my eldest daughter, the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, as your concubine?"
"But as far as I know, Your Highness's first principal wife and two secondary wives already have consorts. Could it be that Your Highness only wishes to make my eldest daughter, the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, a concubine?"
Li Qingzhu is an idiot.
Li Qing, lagging behind, couldn't help but shake her head.
Having reached this point, although it was the result of her own meticulous planning and relentless pressure, she still chose the most foolish path!
Prince Yun is really not a good match.
But she seemed not to care at all about being just a concubine in the royal palace, like a moth drawn to a flame, sacrificing everything to get there.
She's giving up being the legitimate wife of the Third Young Master of the Marquis of Zhongyi!
You must lower yourself and shamelessly become a concubine!
What is she really thinking?
Li Qingluo didn't understand Li Qingzhu's choice, but if she hadn't been so persistent, she wouldn't have been able to expose her true colors so easily today.
Prince Yun: "What? She's just a daughter who was switched at birth in your General's Mansion, and you really treat her as your eldest legitimate daughter?"
"Even if you call her noble, so what?"
"Is it an insult for her to be my concubine?"
Prince Yun was extremely arrogant and conceited, simply because he was the second son of the emperor and empress.
His elder brother, the former crown prince, who shares the same mother, is currently imprisoned in the Nanshan Villa. Since no new crown prince has been appointed in the court yet, he is the most sought-after prince and the current emperor's favorite son.
Who would dare to really offend him?
Although Li Qingzhu's face turned pale and then red after hearing what Prince Yun said, she bit her lip tightly and dared not utter a sound.
Prince Yun was very pleased with Li Qingzhu's tact and understanding.
After giving Zhuang Sanlang a mocking look that greatly insulted him, Prince Yun's gaze fell on Li Kechuan.
He really is like a dog.
Prince Yun couldn't help but smile slightly: "Li Kechuan, Li Kechuan. I can't help but feel a little sorry for you."
"Since you all already know the truth, then I might as well tell you. Actually, when you broke your leg last time, Zhu'er was in the courtyard, still in my arms."
"However, you are far too arrogant and presumptuous. Do you think you can just barge into my residence as you please?"
"I am of noble birth! How dare you provoke me?"
"You, a young general, thought your stubbornness and sacrifice were all worthwhile, but what was the result? Now Zhu'er hates you to the core. You lost your leg because of her, and you ruined her voice."
"You siblings, I think we're even now."
Even?
This is hardly something that can be settled evenly!
Li Kechuan's fists clenched so tightly they cracked, his eyes filled with undisguised anger and resentment.
But Prince Yun didn't take him seriously at all.
"I allowed Zhu'er to do these things originally to give your General's Mansion some face and make things right. Now that things have become so ugly, I don't need to show you any mercy!"
"If you've thought it through a month from now, you can send Zhu'er to the inner quarters of my Prince Yun's residence. If you're unwilling, the ruin of your entire family's reputation is your own business!"
As he spoke, Prince Yun's gaze suddenly fell on Li Qingluo at the back of the crowd.
She came too?
Li Qingzhu no longer means anything to Prince Yun.
On the contrary, Li Qingluo piqued his interest.
As he was watching, Li Chaojing sensed something was wrong and suddenly began to struggle and thrash about.
"If His Highness Prince Yun were to mock my entire family like this, His Majesty would certainly not let him off easily if he knew the truth!"
"This matter concerns Your Highness's character. Even if the entire court knew about it, they would certainly condemn Your Highness in words and deeds!"
Prince Yun shouted, "Slap him! When did it become your place to judge my character?!"
The guard raised his hand and slapped Li Chaojing several times.
They only stopped hitting him when his mouth was bleeding.
Standing to the side, Madam Qu trembled and covered her mouth tightly, not daring to utter a sound.
Prince Yun sneered: "Your household has caused trouble time and time again, harming my offspring, trespassing on my residence, and you still want to complain to my father, the Emperor?"
"You have such a big face!"
"Li Chaojing, tell me, does Father Emperor believe me or you?"
“I’ll tell you, it was your eldest daughter who seduced me. It was also your eldest daughter who staged the self-immolation scene. I did save her, but I didn’t know her identity. So, I was truly innocent when Li Kechuan’s leg was broken.”
"Li Chaojing, Li Chaojing, you are truly foolish. The person who cut off Li Kechuan's leg was from the Emperor's Imperial Guard. Who will you hold accountable to?"
"Furthermore, wasn't today's incident a trap set for me by your Li family?"
"You should be grateful that I still want a daughter from the Li family!"
Having said that, Prince Yun was extremely annoyed and strode away.
As he reached the door, Prince Yun left with the words, "If you still intend to send her to my residence a month from now, I do not wish to see my beloved concubine with even the slightest injury."
"Furthermore, I'm only giving you one month. After that, I won't honor it!"
After saying this, Prince Yun personally opened the door in front of him.
Unexpectedly, a large group of people had appeared outside the door.
Prince Yun's face instantly darkened!
Because the person who came was none other than his most hated younger brother in the world, the Fifth Prince Duan Rongshi.
When Duan Rongshi saw Prince Yun, he smiled and said, "Fourth brother, you really have a refined taste. You were caught red-handed by the girl and her family while having an affair at Minglou."
As Duan Rongshi spoke, he glanced into the room.
His last gaze lingered on Li Qingluo.
This woman really doesn't shy away from trouble. If the Fourth Prince finds out that she's involved in this matter, how can she easily get away with it?
Moreover, he stood outside the door for so long without her saying a word, yet these people, like dogs fighting each other, spilled the beans.
She remained perfectly hidden, appearing more like someone watching the show from the sidelines.
That's really impressive!
However, her abilities are really growing stronger every day!
Even Minglou could be manipulated by her silently.
It seems that Madam Pei's influence is not to be underestimated.
When Prince Yun saw him there, he gritted his teeth in anger: "What nonsense are you spouting?! Little Fifth, you've committed countless murders, you must be seeing things!"
