Chapter 159 Why do you want to have an affair with Miss Chu?
The Marquis' Mansion in the Capital.
When Lu Chenzhou heard the spy's report, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"What did you say?" Lu Chenzhou's voice was filled with suppressed anger. "Xiao Tingye got out of her carriage?"
Su Changxue, who was sitting next to him and blowing the foam off his face with a teacup in his hand, paused slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then continued to sip the tea without any expression.
The spy who reported the news was apprehensive. "...Yes, Prince."
Lu Chenzhou's eyes were terribly dark and his gaze was cold and fierce.
"Well..." A sinister curve appeared at the corner of his lips as he looked down at the kneeling spy. Every word he said was filled with a chilling chill. "You really... brought me some... very unhappy news."
Before he could even finish his words, a flash of sword light appeared. Before the subordinate could even raise his eyes, the cold blade had already pierced his heart.
Lu Chenzhou waved his hand indifferently, and the blood-stained sword fell to the ground, causing a heart-pounding echo in the entire space.
The strong smell of blood instantly filled the entire study, and blood flowed on the ground like a snake.
Killed with one sword.
The corpse on the ground seemed to have no idea what had happened until its death.
[Spy: Is there anyone who can speak for me?]
[Male protagonist, are you right? Killing innocent people is not what you should do.]
【Did the spy provoke you? 】
[No, the villain hasn't turned evil yet, but you turned evil first? ]
[Are you worthy of being the male lead if you kill innocent people because of a female supporting role? ]
[From what I heard earlier, you're implying that killing innocent people for the sake of the heroine makes you worthy of being the male lead?]
[Of course, whatever he does for the heroine is out of love, isn't that unworthy? ]
Humans and non-humans have no common language.
Su Changxue's expression also changed slightly, and his gaze moved from the corpse to Lu Chenzhou's gloomy profile.
"Because of a woman..." His voice was still gentle, but his brows were deeply furrowed. "Your Highness's action is somewhat inappropriate." His eyes swept across the pool of blood that was gradually solidifying on the ground, and a solemn look appeared on his white jade-like face.
It seems that he does not agree with Lu Chenzhou's approach.
Lu Chenzhou had a blank expression on his face. "Who told him to displease this prince? If that's the case, he deserves to die."
Su Changxue knew that although it was said that he was unhappy, the ultimate reason was...
It’s because of Lin Zhaoyue.
Because that man got off her carriage, Lu Chenzhou lost his composure out of jealousy.
He had already heard of Xiao Tingye.
A true hero.
He will also be Lu Chenzhou's biggest enemy in the future.
That's what he thought.
But after arriving in the capital, he changed his mind.
It seems that Lu Chenzhou’s biggest enemy may not be Lord Xiao.
Instead... it was another woman with great power.
At least, it could make Lu Chenzhou lose his composure to this extent.
For Lu Chenzhou, her position in his heart is already extraordinary.
Lu Chenzhou spoke in a low, cold voice, "Xiao Tingye has been coveting Zhaoyue for a long time. He wants to take advantage of the estrangement between me and the princess and swoop in... Haha, who does he think he is? How dare a stinking rat from the gutter compete with her?"
His eyes were dark.
If Zhaoyue knew what he would do to her in the future...
I'm afraid he wants to tear him into pieces!
He slammed his palm down on the table, gritting his teeth, his expression sinister, his eyes bloodshot. "He was the one who was obstructing the divorce agreement. If it weren't for him...this prince and the princess would never have ended up in this situation!"
Originally, he wanted to find evidence that Xiao Tingye was involved, but Xiao Tingye was such a cunning person that he had destroyed all the evidence long ago.
He had been a powerful official for many years and had fought with Lin Zhaoyue for many years. He was extremely good at fabricating and destroying evidence.
Even if he knew it was him, he had no way to seek justice!
And he and Zhaoyue were divorced for no apparent reason!
The people he sent out to investigate were even skinned and boned!
It’s a pity that he still has to endure it now, trapped in the capital like a trapped beast and being constrained.
If he had done it earlier... he would have been able to complete the plan sooner and would not be in such a passive position now.
Su Changxue looked at Lu Chenzhou's appearance at this moment, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"I have a question, I wonder if the prince can answer it."
"If the prince values Princess Zhaohua so much, then... why would he have an affair with Miss Chu?"
Lu Chenzhou's expression changed slightly, and there was a hint of something in his eyes.
He said calmly, "It's just that I saw that she was somewhat similar to Zhao Yue and mistook her for a pearl."
Su Changxue looked at his expression for a while, then raised the corner of her mouth slightly, saying meaningfully, "I see."
"However, I still have to remind Master Lu that news from Xiling will reach the capital soon. We should be prepared." Su Changxue said slowly.
Lu Chenzhou seemed to be still immersed in what had just happened and didn't say a word.
"I heard that His Majesty has ordered Princess Zhaohua to attend court... The Crown Prince should understand what this signal means."
"I've already planted new spies in the court for His Royal Highness. With the court now divided, the best scenario would be for the fisherman to profit from the conflict." Su Changxue said calmly, "I've already arranged everything you asked me to do. But we also need to prepare for both scenarios. If things don't develop as expected, then..."
He stopped talking here.
Lu Chenzhou raised his hand and interrupted him.
"Once this matter is over, we will move the plan forward."
Su Changxue looked at him for a moment, then nodded.
According to the current situation, he had other plans.
But Lu Chenzhou seemed very persistent in his plan.
Whatever.
He was also very curious whether all this would develop as he said.
Just at this moment, someone came in to deliver a message.
"Prince, Chu Yinyin requests to see you."
Hearing this name, Lu Chenzhou's already unhappy expression darkened for a moment.
"not see."
Now, he only felt more annoyed and disgusted with the name Chu Yinyin.
Chu Yinyin has come to see him more than once.
At the beginning, he still had some feelings for her and couldn't bear to see her suffer.
But now, he no longer has this so-called reluctance.
Even if she married Lin Ye, there was no ripple in his heart.
"Yes." The subordinate took the order and withdrew.
Su Changxue didn't say anything, but just looked at the figure of the person leaving, his eyelashes drooping slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
[What a cruel heart! The heroine likes you so much]
[The heroine is the same, she is already married and still wants to cheat]
[It's already pitiful for the heroine to marry someone she doesn't like, so what's wrong with finding someone she likes? ]
[That’s right, my little girl is the one who suffers the most!]
[These are the same people who supported the male protagonist's extramarital affair, right?]
[To be honest, the male protagonist is indeed a scumbag and a mean person. If he really overcame all difficulties and got together with Chu Yinyin, I would respect him as a man. Now he is a scumbag.]
[+1]
[Princess, be careful! This scumbag and the guy surnamed Su are plotting against you and the villain.]
Lin Zhaoyue threw a handful of fish feed into the pond.
This immediately caused the fish in the pond to scramble for food.
The subtitles in front of me were chattering, discussing something non-stop.
In the original plot, Su Changxue appeared beside Lu Chenzhou.
His power flourished like mushrooms after rain.
Su Changxue brought him more than just strategies.
And his own intelligence network and people under him.
But before he came, Lu Chenzhou's influence in the court had already been eliminated by himself.
He now wants to rebuild his power, which is more than ten times more difficult than in the book.
As for the spy he just deployed...
Her people are already watching.
This is all thanks to the subtitles that tipped her off.
As long as Su Changxue and Lu Chenzhou are together.
They can see the situation of Lu Chenzhou and Su Changxue at any time.
