What is Chapter 22? (2/2)



"Young Master, you should go back now." Mo Yu felt like crying.

However, he also knew that he couldn't control this unruly young prince.

"Young Master, please slow down, don't fall." Looking at Xu Qingshi who was rushing around so energetically, Li Zhiwei was only worried that he would fall.

Before long, Li Zhiwei was brought by Xu Qingshi to the entrance of the storeroom where her dowry had been stored.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhiwei asked, puzzled.

"Hey, look at you, so carefree. Didn't you see that all your dowry has been moved away? You have nothing left. How are you going to establish yourself in this Prince's mansion?" Xu Qingshi said to Li Zhiwei with a dissatisfied look.

"Thank you for reminding me, Young Master." Li Zhiwei felt a warm feeling for no reason. Look, even a little child knows how to worry about her.

But the Lin family only wanted to leech off me. Luckily, I was given a second chance at life, otherwise...

"Go and take a look." Xu Qingshi looked at Li Zhiwei's dazed expression and thought to himself, "This family would fall apart without me."

It's so pitiful that he's been so infatuated with his father that he can't distinguish right from wrong.

There will be times when she cries later.

Although Li Zhiwei didn't know what Xu Qingshi was up to, she still went into the room to check.

He was taken aback when he saw his own canopy bed and the longevity coffin placed next to it in the room. It was a bit strange to put these two things together.

But shouldn't the Emperor's men have moved it away?

Why are you still here?

"How about it? Happy now? This is something I specially saved for you," Xu Qingshi said with a smug look on his face.

"Young Master, these things are no longer mine, so we can't keep them." Li Zhiwei was afraid that by giving away two fewer items, she would displease the Emperor.

After all, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help. Your Majesty will not blame me." Xu Qingshi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Besides, these two items were ugly, and I doubt Your Majesty would like them either.

If all else fails, I'll have the Third Prince go and cry to the Emperor.

The Emperor was most afraid of the Third Prince crying.

“Young Master, I know you mean well, but these things are something I voluntarily want to give to the Emperor,” Li Zhiwei said with a sigh.

That bed was made by her father after he had been collecting wood since she was a child. He hired craftsmen and it took three whole years to make it, so naturally she was reluctant to part with it.

However, more than these material possessions, she wanted to save her parents' lives.

"You ungrateful woman, how can you be so ungrateful? I kindly left these things for you, and you actually despise them?" Xu Qingshi didn't expect Li Zhiwei to react like this. Shouldn't she be happy?

Or perhaps she simply believes that what her father said is right?

He's really quite ill!

In the palace

As Zhu Jingchen listened to Tang Xiuyong report on Li Zhiwei's dowry, he sighed inwardly. This was truly a fortune beyond measure; Li Tianyou's dowry for his daughter was already so lavish.

"Your Majesty, two items of dowry were left behind at the Prince An's residence, which I was unable to bring back," Tang Xiuyong said, kneeling down at the end.

"Left by Prince An?" Zhu Jingchen was taken aback, not expecting that Prince An would ask for something for Li Zhiwei.

"It was the young master of the Prince An's mansion who wouldn't let me take those two items," Tang Xiuyong quickly shook his head and told the truth.

"What does Qingshi want? What is it?" Zhu Jingchen didn't expect that the scoundrel Xu Qingshi would actually embezzle his national treasury. He wondered what he should ask Xu Heming for later.
