Chapter 162 The Mastermind
Although the belt was not untied, it was a little loose.
The big hand easily ruffled the collar, passed through the gap, and supported the ups and downs.
With another pull, the round little shoulders slid out.
His lips moved gently down to her ear, along her neck to her shoulder.
Qi Yue tried to push the handsome face that was getting more and more excited as he kissed her, but he pressed her to the side with his fingers interlocked.
"Stop it, I really can't do it..."
Lin Xu sullenly said "hmm", raised his face and coaxed her seriously: "I miss the princess too much, princess, be good and let me kiss you, okay?"
"No, you won't be able to help it."
She reached out her free hand to pull at his ear, rejecting him without mercy.
Lin Xu looked at her with resentment in his eyes, but still helped her tidy up her clothes.
Qi Yue touched his face and said, "You are so good. I will make it up to you when you get better."
Hearing this, the resentment in his eyes immediately disappeared. When he thought of the news he had obtained in Li State, his expression became much more serious.
"Princess, the eldest prince of the Kingdom of Li has passed away."
Qi Yue's face showed no surprise, and he said calmly, "Murong Heli did it."
Lin Xu was stunned and asked in surprise: "The princess knows?"
Qi Yue curled her lips: "It's not hard to guess."
He continued, "But Emperor Li believed that this incident was the work of the Fourth Prince. His biological mother, Concubine Xiao, was also executed, and the Fourth Prince was demoted to a commoner. Now he has fled to Suyang City to seek refuge with his grandfather, Xiao Aotian."
"Let Leng Yue take you into the palace and tell my brother all the information we have found out. I am just a useless princess after all, so it is better to let my brother worry about this important matter."
As she spoke, she pressed her brows and stroked the corners of her eyes, "Don't work too hard, it'll make you get wrinkles!"
Lin Xu looked at her beautiful eyes. Not to mention wrinkles, there were not even any dark circles under her eyes. Her eyes were bright and charming.
He smiled fondly and replied, "Okay."
Qi Junqi was very surprised when he heard the news. You know, people in the martial arts world generally would never have anything to do with the imperial court, let alone a top master like Lin Xu.
Not only does his Dark Night team have countless assassins, but their ability to gather information is also top-notch.
If you don't pay enough money, it's impossible to hire the Dark Night people to do things for you.
Now he has also taken advantage of the emperor's sister.
Therefore, Qi Junqi became more determined to tie up the tutor and send him to the princess's mansion as a reward.
It’s not that he is stingy and unwilling to give other good things to his younger sister, it’s mainly because she loves this.
Due to the special nature of Lin Xu's identity, Qi Junqi planned to wait until later before letting Leng Yue bring the person over.
Shao Siyan didn't return from the Imperial Hospital until Lin Xu finished dinner with Qi Yue and left for the imperial study.
He didn't even have time to eat dinner. After returning to his room to take a shower, he went straight to the bedroom.
As soon as he entered the room, Shao Siyan said excitedly: "Princess, I have improved the ointment today, and it is even more effective this time!"
He walked to the bed with the ointment in his hand and presented it to Qi Yue like a treasure.
Qi Yue laughed and glared at him, "Little fox, you came back so late just for this? Have you not eaten yet?"
"No..." He shook his head and said excitedly, "It doesn't matter, Princess, it's time to apply the medicine. I'll help you."
"After applying, go and eat."
"Yes, Princess."
While untying her belt and skirt, he introduced the ointment, "Originally, this wound would take at least five to seven days to heal, but the new ointment can shorten the healing time to three days, and the princess will be able to get out of bed and walk tomorrow."
After hearing this, Qi Yue's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but praise: "Little fox is really amazing! Now I don't have to lie down until mushrooms grow..."
Shao Siyan gently applied medicine to her while asking for a favor: "Then Princess, can you agree to one of my requests?"
Qi Yue was in a good mood and said generously: "Okay, as long as I can do it, I will do it for you."
His face flushed, and he said shyly, "After the princess recovers, I want to be the first one to sleep with her."
"OK……"
Qi Yue blurted out the words subconsciously and agreed.
The next second, thinking about the compensation he had just agreed to from Lin Xu, the smile on his face froze.
"Little fox, how about...you change one?"
Shao Siyan frowned slightly, covered the ointment and put it down, threw her down and held her in his arms, saying resentfully: "No, Princess, since you promised me, there is no reason for you to go back on your word."
Qi Yue looked at the slightly raised hair on his forehead and couldn't help laughing.
Is this a blast?
Never mind, just two.
It's no big deal.
She smoothed his hair: "Okay, no regrets."
The State of Li.
After Murong Su and Murong Jueli, the fifth prince, the seventh prince and the eighth prince also met with accidents one after another.
Either they broke their legs, or were assassinated, or were pushed onto a rockery and hit their heads, causing a bloody mess.
Even the ninth prince Murong Qi slipped and fell into the water. Fortunately, he was rescued in time, but he developed a high fever that night.
Concubine Yue took care of him without taking off her clothes for three days and three nights, and only then did the high fever subside.
Emperor Li looked at the beautiful woman who had lost a lot of weight due to the torment, and held her hands lovingly: "My beloved concubine, you have worked hard. I will find out the mastermind behind this and give Qi'er justice!"
The beautiful Concubine Yue shed tears and said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, please demote me and Qi'er to commoners. This way, we may be able to save our lives..."
Emperor Li frowned and said unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about! You are my beloved concubine, and Qi'er is my prince. Who dares to harm you?"
Concubine Yue complained, "Who would be so bold? I believe the emperor has already made up his mind. I just want to raise Qi'er peacefully."
"Then let Qi'er live out his life as a leisurely prince. Such a simple wish has actually been plotted by some people with ulterior motives..."
Even though Emperor Li was stupid, he understood what she meant, and his expression turned cold. "You and Qi'er should have a good rest. I have something important to attend to, so I will leave first."
Concubine Yue did not stop him and said obediently, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."
Meixiang was a little worried: "Your Majesty, aren't you being too hasty? The Emperor seems annoyed."
"This old fellow has always been stupid and arrogant. It would be strange if I didn't say this." She wiped her hands carefully with a handkerchief, not even leaving out the gaps between her fingers.
After wiping, he threw the handkerchief on the ground in disgust and crushed it with the sole of his shoe.
"He will only think that I am innocent and easy to control. Even if he is angry, he will only vent his anger on the so-called mastermind."
Meixiang sighed: "The Queen is still amazing!"
Concubine Yue: "How is Murong Qian doing?"
Mei Xiang lowered her voice and whispered softly in her ear: "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. As long as the time comes, Murong Qian and Concubine Wen will be completely doomed!"
