Chen Tongyi was tall and imposing; even kneeling on the ground, his robust physique was evident, unlike the people of Nanchen Kingdom.
He had a thick beard on his face, probably to cover up his appearance.
【Oh dear, I'm so sleepy. Daddy's been dealing with all this all morning. I'm so hungry, I miss Mommy, I miss my sweet Mommy.】
When Crown Prince Xiao Sheng heard Li Xingran's soft and cute voice, his heart felt like a flower was blooming. Then he heard a "thump" sound.
The Crown Prince's inner thoughts: I really want to hug this little baby.
Li Xingran's childish voice rang out again.
[This gardener, this gardener has done so many heinous things! He played a crucial role in how Empress Zhao Yunshu was so quickly brought under Zhao Yunwan's control.]
Zhao Yunshu was an extraordinary woman. She was resourceful and skilled in martial arts; ordinary people couldn't control her. It was this gardener who cultivated the mind-controlling datura for Zhao Yunwan.
This flower originally only grew in a small western country because it was extremely sensitive to temperature. Nanchen Kingdom couldn't cultivate it. However, Chen Tongyi had the ability to cultivate a more poisonous datura variety.
Zhao Yunwan instructed the emperor to have datura planted in the side hall where the empress frequented. Each time before the empress went, the emperor would send someone to cut the roots of the datura.
[Furthermore, the emperor would intentionally or unintentionally visit the empress's palace to deliver a sachet and bring her soup. Even though the empress did not love the emperor, she was moved by his attentiveness.]
Tears welled in Xiao Sheng's eyes. Even at only six years old, he knew what this meant. Besides, he wasn't stupid; he'd just been spoiled.
After last night's dream and the reflections upon waking, he knew what he was facing. He had to stand up.
[Tsk tsk tsk, after a while, the Empress became pregnant.]
The emperor still had some conscience; he shielded the empress from much trouble, otherwise Xiao Sheng wouldn't have been able to give birth.
I remember in that book, the author used ten chapters to describe the harm the Empress suffered during her pregnancy. Almost all of it came from Zhao Yunwan and the Emperor's turning a blind eye.
Xiao Sheng listened to Li Xingran's heartfelt words, his heart bleeding. He realized that his mother had avoided him back then because she couldn't let him see her miserable state!
He was too naive and too trusting of others.
He will become powerful and will avenge his mother's enemies!
Just as Li Xingran was about to fall into a deep sleep again, she heard a "Ding! Unlocked secret bag! Chen Tongyi has the process for making thunder bombs, keep it for now."
[So this is how the "secret formula" is used? Changing the course of the book gets me a secret formula?]
[Daddy, Chen Tongyi has the recipe for making thunderbolts, let's not kill him yet. *sniffle* So sleepy, want some milk.]
Upon hearing this, Li Ting was overjoyed. If Nan Chen Kingdom also possessed thunder bombs, there would be no need to fear Da Liang Kingdom anymore. Currently, on the Cangxuan Land, Da Liang Kingdom was the most powerful, followed by Nan Chen.
Seeing his daughter sucking on her lips, Li Ting quickly returned Li Xingran to Xu Ningyou's side.
Li Xingran drifted off to sleep sweetly while nursing.
Li Ting summoned his bodyguard Leng Bing and ordered, "Go and pry open Chen Tongyi's mouth and get all the secrets about the Great Yue Kingdom from his head. Also, he's skilled and knows how to grow rare medicinal herbs, so keep him alive for now and don't torture him to death."
After receiving the order, Leng Bing quickly left, her movements incredibly fast.
At this time, the servants in the courtyard had been dismissed, leaving only Xiao Sheng sitting upright in his seat.
"Liu Fu, invite the Crown Prince to the main hall. I have important matters to discuss with him."
