"Cough cough..."
Wang Yanzhang coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment, then said with a resolute look in his eyes.
"Your Highness, if you spare my daughter, I'm willing to practice martial arts with you all night long..."
Holy crap…
You agreed just like that?
The main issue isn't whether he agreed, but rather that his preference for men is hard to explain...
"roll…"
Li Zhu roared, startling Wang Yanzhang so much that he turned and ran, muttering to himself...
"Not only are this person's hobbies different, but their temper is also so unpredictable..."
Li Zhu found himself like a monkey in a zoo, being watched by everyone again…
Why do we say "again"?
He had already been surrounded by snakes once before, but since snakes can't speak, they couldn't spread his embarrassing stories. But this situation was clearly different; those surrounding him were all talking people. Most importantly, the people in the Eastern Palace spread rumors extremely quickly. He could even imagine what the rumors in Luoyang would be like next…
What a prince becoming a beggar…
A few things about the relationship between the Crown Prince and General Wang…
General Wang outwitted the Crown Prince, refusing to submit to his tyrannical power…
It's terrifying to even think about, but there's nothing he can do right now; he's just beyond tears...
He now felt that the Second Prince was truly despicable. If it weren't for this bastard trying to trick him, none of this would have happened. He was definitely going to teach him a lesson later...
The Second Prince, who was drinking tea in the Crown Prince's palace, suddenly sneezed. A bad feeling rose in his heart, but he thought that he was the Second Prince after all, and no one would dare to make a move against him!
After changing his clothes, Li Zhu returned to his palace immediately. Seeing the Second Prince leisurely drinking tea, Li Zhu's anger flared up instantly. He had survived countless near-death experiences in the underground palace, while the Second Prince seemed completely unaffected here...
All this tragedy happened because this bastard tried to frame him…
"Li Ke, what are you doing barging into my palace? Are you trying to assassinate me?"
Li Zhu's roar startled the Second Prince so much that he choked on his tea, unable to swallow it properly...
"Cough cough..."
The second prince coughed as he turned to look at the furious Li Zhu, his eyes filled with confusion, as if he didn't know what had happened!
"Fine, since you've already admitted it, don't blame me for being impolite..."
As soon as Li Zhu finished speaking, he rushed straight at the Second Prince, giving him no chance to react before Li Zhu had already knocked him to the ground...
Even now, the Second Prince still hadn't realized what he'd admitted to. Why was this guy so angry? Why did he hit me?
"Murder!... Eunuch Tang, save me..."
The second prince could only turn to Eunuch Tang for help. This was the Crown Prince's palace, and everyone here was the Crown Prince's man. Only Eunuch Tang could save him!
"Your Highness...please show mercy..."
Eunuch Tang also looked down on the Second Prince. He thought the beast who could abandon his own wife deserved to be beaten. But since it happened right in front of him, if he didn't speak up and it got back to the Emperor, he would definitely be in deep trouble...
"Uncle Tang, you heard it too. He just confessed to assassinating me. It's a heinous crime of fratricide. I've already been merciful enough by not asking Father to kill him. If I don't teach him a lesson, how can he learn his lesson?"
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, Eunuch Tang clicked his tongue, feeling that Li Zhu was truly like a different person. In the past, he would praise the Second Prince for being brave if he didn't avoid him!
Now they can completely dominate the Second Prince, and even stand on the moral high ground to condemn him, leaving outsiders with no grounds for criticism. This change is hard to accept for a while...
"Your Highness, please forgive the Second Prince this time, for the sake of this old servant..."
Eunuch Tang had no choice but to shamelessly continue pleading for the Second Prince!
After hitting him for a while, Li Zhu realized he couldn't go too far. He could just hit him to vent his anger and then stop. If he went too far, his adoptive father, the emperor, would never let him off the hook...
So when he heard Eunuch Tang plead for mercy, he decided to give him face, believing that the other party would surely reciprocate!
"Li Ke, if it weren't for Eunuch Tang's intercession, I could have killed you without any problem just for breaking into my palace to assassinate me today. Now get out of here..."
Li Zhu feigned anger and scolded, trying to get rid of the other party. After all, Mingfei was still in the dark passage, and she must have been living in fear for a long time. He had to bring Mingfei back as soon as possible to avoid any accidents...
"Li Zhu, you just wait..."
The second prince was also stunned by the beating and forgot why he came here. Being beaten up by Li Zhu in front of so many people was really embarrassing. He planned to leave first and then find a way to get revenge!
"Li Ke, watch your tone! This is still my palace!"
Seeing that the Second Prince still dared to utter such harsh words, how could he, with his fiery temper, tolerate it? He had to settle his score on the spot; after all, suffering a loss wasn't in his nature. Even if there was a lot of trouble later, that was a matter for later!
The Second Prince had intended to threaten Li Zhu, but unexpectedly, Li Zhu turned the tables and threatened him instead. He was incredibly frustrated...
"I…"
"I'm giving you a chance to rephrase your words. I'm now generously letting you go. What should you do?"
Before the other party could speak, Li Zhu stared at him forcefully and threatened.
"Li Zhu, you've gone too far..."
The second prince said, his voice trembling with frustration, tears welling in his eyes. How many times had this happened? He'd almost lost count. Ever since Li Zhu ascended to the position of crown prince, he'd been at a disadvantage almost every day…
"Wasn't what you did today excessive? Don't tell me Changsun Lang isn't one of yours..."
Li Zhu looked coldly at the Second Prince and said!
"you…"
"What do you mean, 'you'? Do you want me to reveal more? To let everyone see what heinous things you, the Second Prince, have done to achieve your goals?"
Li Zhu interrupted the Second Prince and retorted angrily!
"I…"
"What do you mean, 'what about me'? Am I wrong? I let you go, I let you leave, you should be grateful for my magnanimity..."
Li Zhu didn't give the Second Prince a chance to speak at all. As long as the other party didn't apologize, he could silence the Second Prince!
"Huff..."
The second prince tried hard to regulate his breathing, but even so, his breathing was like a bellows, unable to calm down from his anger.
"Thank you so much...Brother, you are so magnanimous..."
In the end, the second prince gave in and reluctantly expressed his gratitude. The situation was too dire for him, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Haha... I, your royal brother, am an upright and pure person, so naturally I wouldn't take such a small matter to heart..."
Li Zhu said with a smug smile, "This feeling of having people constantly offering their faces for me to punch is something only I can truly understand..."
