Chapter 69 That's My Wife
"Oh? What guess?"
"You want to take advantage of the chaos in Kuizhou to achieve your goals."
"Hmm? What's the purpose?" Fu Yi asked slowly.
Liping doesn't know...
But he first made a bold guess: "You want to kill the emperor."
Fu Yi shook his head: "I told you, I am a loyal minister."
"The late Taizu lived an extremely long life, and the current emperor didn't ascend the throne until he was over fifty. He had so much he wanted to do, but so little time. So he appointed you. Because you are ruthless and quick, you can help him implement his new policies quickly and leave a mark in the history books."
"But the emperor is getting older. Whatever he valued about you in the past, he will be wary of you today. He wants to get rid of you before he dies."
"The prince is intelligent and should understand this principle. So I wonder if you have thought about striking first?"
Li Ping analyzed the situation carefully while observing Fu Yi's expression.
But he was disappointed.
Fu Yi was still as unhurried as before, and the smile on the corner of his mouth had not changed.
"Wrong." Fu Yi paused for a moment. "I am loyal to Your Majesty, how could I change my mind? The prefect is trying to throw dirty water on me."
Li Ping showed a helpless look: "I heard that many people in the Imperial Capital hate the Prince."
Cheng Nianying frowned quietly.
That's those people's fault.
"Because dealing with the Prince is truly painful. There are so many people, but no one knows what the Prince is thinking. I've learned that lesson today...
"Since the prince refuses to say anything, I have no choice but to resort to the worst possible strategy—to sacrifice the prince's blood."
Fu Yi raised his head, ready to be killed, and his hood slipped off his head.
Cheng Nianying saw his face clearly at this moment.
It's not so uncomfortable anymore.
I have to save him.
Cheng Nianying was about to break the roof with a punch.
Li Ping suddenly thought of something and asked, "There is one more thing I would like the prince to answer for me."
"Well, please speak, Magistrate."
"Who is that little nun? She can't be a princess or a county magistrate, right? She's a female official?"
"Neither." Fu Yi paused, "Why are you asking about her?"
"She's just a woman. I'll spare her life once the matter is settled. My son likes her. Since she has no connection to the royal family and isn't a court lady, it doesn't matter."
Fu Yi: "Oh, the prefect is such a good father."
When Li Ping heard him speak like this, he felt a chill down his spine.
He couldn't help but attack Fu Yi: "Yes, if you don't be a good father, you will only raise a son like the prince."
"But she's my wife." Fu Yi said lightly, "What do you think we should do?"
Li Ping: “…”
He racked his brains but never expected that Fu Yi would bring his wife with him!
He was even asked to leave by his son who was greedy for women!
Li Ping said stiffly, "I originally thought she had a good personality and it would be nice to keep her. But now I think it's better to forget it... If my son took your wife as a concubine, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully day or night."
Fu Yi nodded: "Yes, I will come back to find him even if I become a ghost."
Li Ping: "…………" "I'd better send her to accompany the prince to the underworld."
Fu Yi: "No, she's still young, wouldn't it be a pity for her to die here?"
Li Ping was about to sarcastically ask, "Do you still feel pity?" But he paused and immediately asked, "Since the prince doesn't want her to die, why not be honest?"
"Let me think about it."
Li Ping frowned, wondering if he was delaying on purpose.
But if there really is someone who can be Fu Yi’s weak spot… that would be… really great!
Li Ping decided to give him some time.
"I need the prince's answer tonight. Otherwise, his wife will have to become a miserable couple with him."
He turned and walked out.
Just then the servant came running over breathlessly: "Master, Master said he has something to tell you."
Li Ping: "Yes, lead the way."
When he arrived in front of Li Jinjiang, he almost laughed out of anger. At such an important time... it turned out that he was just telling him that his lover was pregnant.
Well, it’s not unimportant.
"Let's take care of the baby first. We can talk about other things later." Li Ping still had expectations for his grandchildren, but the mother of this child... Li Ping looked at Zizhu and frowned.
It's a bit weird, but not very popular.
Zizhu also showed an aggrieved expression. She raised her sleeve to wipe the corner of her eyes while trying to speak.
"Sir! Mr. Liu is back and is eager to see you." A voice came from outside.
Li Ping pressed his forehead, feeling that there were so many things to happen today!
"Bring the person here."
"Take your people back first." The second sentence was said to Li Jinjiang.
Zizhu's eyes changed slightly.
It looks like there won't be any more chances...
Zizhu stood up hesitantly and put her hands into her sleeves.
At the same time, Mr. Liu stepped into the room first, and the prince was held hostage behind him.
Mr. Liu said anxiously, "Sir! That monk claims to be the prince!"
The prince? How could the prince be here?
The emperor and the crown prince are both present. If anything unexpected happens, it will shake the foundation of the country... Is the emperor crazy?
No, no... In an instant, Li Ping understood everything.
The person Fu Yi wants to get rid of... is the Crown Prince!
He wanted to incite the princes to fight with each other, restrain the emperor, stir up trouble himself, and seek power.
Li Ping opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but the people around him exclaimed.
"grown ups!"
What's wrong with him?
He fell down.
*
The other side.
Fu Yi pulled his hood up again and whispered, "Madam, aren't you coming out?"
Cheng Nianying was a little surprised. How did he know I was there?
"Madam." Fu Yi called again, "Don't you want to see me?"
Cheng Nianying hesitated for a moment, turned over and pressed herself against the roof ridge, then slid down the roof with exceptionally softness.
There are more people guarding here, and there are no gaps to sneak into like before... There is no other way, I'm afraid I can only grab two people and knock them out at random.
Cheng Nianying turned around. Huh? This side was surprisingly empty.
She no longer hesitated, opened the window and nimbly slipped in.
To appear less skilled.
She fell awkwardly, then lay on the ground and looked up at Fu Yi.
Fu Yi immediately stood up and walked to her, pulled her up, brushed off the dust on her, and asked, "Have you suffered these past few days?"
Cheng Nianying shook her head, then thought that maybe the other party was worried about her chastity.
To the killer, chastity means nothing.
But men don't seem to think so.
Cheng Nianying didn't know what to say for a moment, but Fu Yi immediately spoke up: "Did you get scared when the hood slipped down just now?"
Cheng Nianying licked her slightly dry lips and said, "I'm used to it. I'm not scared anymore."
"That's good."
Cheng Nianying looked at him, so he immediately pulled up his hood again?
"I know my wife will come to save me, so I am not afraid of the threats from Governor Li." Fu Yi continued.
Cheng Nianying's eyelashes trembled slightly, her throat was blocked, and she could only force out a soft "hmm".
Wu Xun squatted in another corner.
Then what am I, master?
Cheng Nianying's ears twitched sharply, and she tilted her head to ask, "What's that noise outside?"
Fu Yi: "Oh, maybe they caught someone again."
