Chapter 282 [Finished! Something’s wrong!]
After returning home, Prince Jin was so angry that he pounded his wheelchair. He had endured humiliation and painstakingly planned for so long, but in the end, it was all for others!
It should have been his men who captured the rebels and compiled the chain of evidence that had exposed Prince An's rebellion. Unexpectedly, Xia Su, the commander of the military division, reacted so quickly and got there before him!
Xia Su, this is Concubine Rou's brother!
Concubine Rou also gave birth to a prince. One can imagine how her son will be treated!
There's my uncle Xia Su, and He Lin from the He Family Trading Company!
Not to mention that once the eldest prince falls, the imperial merchant Yu family that supports the eldest prince will also be severely damaged.
He Lin, that treacherous pretty boy, will definitely take the opportunity to expand his power and deal another blow to the Yu family.
The more Prince Jin thought about it, the more dismal his expression became.
He deliberately overthrew his elder brother, but instead fostered a new rival. Emperor Qingning was still many years away from death. By then, he would be old, and the little devil in Concubine Rou's belly would still be young.
Prince Jin looked at Hou Xiaoxiao, who had entered the palace gate with him, and asked, "Why didn't you speak up for me in front of my father?"
Hou Xiaoxiao pretended to be clueless, "Your Highness, you are foolish! How dare I speak up for you? That would only bring trouble upon you! Once Prince An's incident comes out, the Emperor will surely become suspicious of the other princes. It's best for you to keep a low profile at this time."
"Although we have some grudges, we will ultimately prosper and suffer together. If you end up badly, I won't be any better off either."
Hou Xiaoxiao patiently persuaded him, her tone gentle and harmless: "Your Highness, how could I harm you?"
"We are in a difficult situation now, and the eldest prince has fallen. Let's shake hands and make peace. If you can discuss it with me properly, you won't have to live in such a restricted situation."
When King Jin heard Hou Xiaoxiao's words, he rarely saw Hou Xiaoxiao treat him with such a good look, and at this moment he felt a little flattered.
After looking at Hou Xiaoxiao for a while, Prince Jin thought more and more that what she said made sense, and he became more convinced of his guess at the palace banquet. In fact, the princess cared about him very much, but because of her self-esteem, she acted against him, but in terms of interests, she still agreed with him.
Prince Jin had lost too much money in this situation. Reconciling with Hou Xiaoxiao was his only option. His attitude also improved a lot: "I hope the princess will take good care of me in the future."
Hou Xiaoxiao nodded and smiled very friendly.
She is the only way out for Prince Jin now, but Prince Jin is not her only choice.
@江麗麗: Xiaoxiao is truly amazing. Even a prince this old can be PUAed by you.
@张小胖: Sister Xiaoxiao is truly a workplace champion!
Not only did the students remain safe and sound in the chaos, but they also made great profits. Each of them became a hero and gained the trust of the dog emperor.
Jiang Lili, the chief dispatcher, finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was already past midnight. Today was a festive day, and it was extremely lively, but also tiring.
She yawned and fell asleep on the desk in the government office.
Jiang Lili also had a small test tube-shaped bottle in her sleeve, with the mouth of the bottle plugged with a wooden stopper. Inside the bottle were some ants with black shells that glowed dark blue, crawling on the bottle wall.
She found this ant on a dilapidated piece of wood in the government office. Yan Chaoyue, the Khan with Kidney Deficiency, said that this kind of ant is suitable for practicing Gu, and such ants cannot be found on the grassland. He asked Jiang Lili to collect more and give them to him in red envelopes when the time comes.
Yan Chaoyue, who loves to grab red envelopes, was forced to learn Miaojiang witchcraft from Hou Xiaoxiao ever since he clicked on the red envelope of poisonous snakes and insects sent by Jiang Lili in Qinglin Mountains. Now, after practicing for half a year, he has achieved remarkable results.
When Jiang Lili was bored waiting for the Beijing team to ask for help, she collected these black and blue ants in the government office.
When Xin Che came to Dan'er County Government to pick up Jiang Lili, Jiang Lili was already sleeping soundly on the table.
Seeing the fatigue between Jiang Lili's brows, he couldn't help but show heartache in his eyes.
After Wanyi School was opened, Li Li and her classmates have been busy. Xin Che had a rare day off, so he was responsible for helping Liao Dabao, who was left alone, to learn the basics of martial arts.
According to Liao Dabao, Jiang Lili and her friends have been concerned about the Lantern Festival Palace Banquet in Beijing since the afternoon, and they have a way to contact Beijing in a timely manner.
Just now, Xin Che had learned from Liao Dabao that his aunt and benefactors in the palace were safe and sound. Xin Che wanted to come and see how Jiang Lili was doing, but he didn't expect that the little girl was so sleepy that she fell asleep.
That’s right, I got up early this morning and didn’t take a break at noon.
The little girl was lying on the table, her lotus pink shawl hat hanging down, covering half of her face. The sheen of the shawl's silk material made her face look rosy. She looked much calmer than her usual lively and noisy self, and looked very well-behaved and harmless.
"Li Li."
Xin Che called Jiang Lili in a gentle voice.
Jiang Lili was sleeping soundly when she heard someone calling her. She opened her eyes slightly and saw that it was Xin Che. Two dimples appeared on her face unconsciously.
She said lazily, "Xin Che, Prince An started a rebellion in the palace tonight. Guess who is the winner?"
After Jiang Lili finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Xin Che, trying to confirm whether she was dreaming or not. Then she became more aggressive and put her hand on Xin Che's cheek with a "slap", rubbing it like a hooligan teasing a virgin.
The handsome face of the Lord God of War feels great, not too soft nor too rough.
Jiang Lili even pinched him, leaving a few shallow crescent-shaped nail marks on his smooth and flawless face.
Xin Che opened his eyes slightly, feeling helpless and ashamed. She would only approach him when she was half asleep, but he would run away after teasing her. When she woke up, she would forget about it and think it was a dream. It was really infuriating!
How can he take the initiative to remind them?
Do I have to cry and complain like a little girl and ask others to take responsibility?
Xin Che has always been able to control his emotions well, but this time he got angrier the more he thought about it.
He domineeringly clamped Jiang Lili's slender wrist and said in her ear with gritted teeth: "I don't care what happens to Prince An."
Jiang Lili tried to open her eyes and looked into Xin Che's eyes: "Then what do you care about?"
She always felt that every time she met Xin Che's eyes, Xin Che's eyes always looked like he was worried about something.
Seeing Jiang Lili's bewildered and obedient look, Xin Che's anger immediately dissipated. He closed his eyes, released her wrist, and whispered, "I only care about you."
There was no response from inside the room for a long time, apparently someone was too sleepy to respond and fell asleep again.
Xin Che let out a long sigh.
He leaned down with a stern face, put his arms around Jiang Lili's waist and skirt, and easily picked up the girl by the waist.
Jiang Lili's hands unconsciously climbed up Xin Che's neck, and she adjusted her position in Xin Che's arms to make herself sleep more comfortably.
Her cheek was pressed against Xin Che's heaving chest.
Xin Che pursed his lips and walked towards the restored cabin while holding Jiang Lili.
Along the way, a stupid thought emerged in his originally clear mind: "Will my accelerated heartbeat wake her up?"
At this time, Jiang Lili's hand was around Xin Che's neck, and the stopper of the test tube bottle in her sleeve was not inserted tightly, and it fell off with a "click" as her hand moved.
The ants trapped in the test tube bottle have finally found a way out!
