Li Zhu clicked his tongue. Cui's eldest daughter, Mingfei, had indeed saved his life and preserved his reputation, preventing him from being stigmatized as someone who forcibly took his younger brother's wife!
But all of that was Mingfei's doing, and he was only grateful to Mingfei. He only had endless hatred for the Cui family. If the Cui family hadn't forced Mingfei, how could there have been such a series of tragedies...
"Oh, really? Then I'd really like to hear what secrets are hidden here. After all, I may not care about others, but I still have to give the Crown Prince some face. He is an upright and pure person, and I admire his reputation the most..."
Li Zhu's tone was somewhat teasing, but his words were full of self-praise...
Others, unaware that he was Li Zhu, assumed that the person they had recommended had finally worked, especially Jiang Moyan. Although he was disgusted inside, having been badly tricked by Li Zhu and forced to kneel and call him "grandpa," he couldn't care less at this moment. Being able to use him to intimidate the enemy was a sign of a good person...
"Let me tell you the truth, His Highness the Crown Prince is now the legitimate ruler of the new Tang Dynasty. Just a few days ago, he single-handedly quelled a rebellion led by Consort Zhu and Consort Yang. He is currently at the height of his power..."
These are all well-known facts, and you should have heard of them as well. However, what the outside world doesn't know is that His Highness the Crown Prince was able to accomplish all of this entirely because Consort Ming, the eldest daughter of the Cui family, risked her life to save him, which gave him the opportunity to complete everything that followed…
Therefore, His Highness the Crown Prince is filled with gratitude towards Consort Ming. Consort Ming was also the eldest daughter of the Cui family. After Consort Ming's death, this gratitude will naturally transfer to the Cui family. So now you have not only offended my Jiang family, but also the Cui family, and even the Crown Prince behind the Cui family..."
Jiang Moyan spoke boastfully, completely oblivious to Li Zhu's suppressed laughter, as if he were looking at a clown...
Naza upstairs was also caught off guard by this awkward situation and for a moment forgot to laugh…
"Really? I never expected that Consort Ming would be just as capable as any man. We are truly impressed..."
Li Zhu chimed in, and Nazha upstairs couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself that this guy was truly shameless. When praising himself, he would agree and cooperate enthusiastically, but when others wanted to steal the spotlight, he would go on a rampage, trying to get back at them no matter what. He was truly inhuman…
"Since you admire me, that's good. Now you should know the enormity of your actions, right? This is a member of a collateral branch of the Cui family, and this young master Cui is also Consort Ming's younger brother. You hit Consort Ming's brother, which is equivalent to offending the Crown Prince. I think you'd better admit your mistake and kneel down to beg for our forgiveness, otherwise you won't even know how you died..."
Jiang Moyan spoke with unbridled confidence, and even Li Zhu found his bizarre theory to be quite reasonable…
If we're talking about the pinnacle of using someone else's name to make a big deal out of nothing, Jiang Moyan is definitely a master among masters...
"What if I don't admit my mistake?"
Li Zhu asked curiously!
"Then you can just wait to die. Let me tell you clearly, the Crown Prince is surrounded by many experts. Not to mention others, Zhao Feng alone could take your life from a hundred paces away. If I were you, you would obediently kneel down and admit your mistakes, begging for our forgiveness, lest you bring disaster upon yourself..."
"But I did nothing wrong! I was acting in self-defense! Your Highness wouldn't be so unreasonable, would you..."
Seeing how convincingly Li Zhu spoke, Nazha was practically bursting with rage. How could he be so wicked? But I like it…
Jiang Moyan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, thinking to herself, is being reasonable the point? Is right and wrong the point?
The point is that you offended the Crown Prince, shouldn't you be afraid now?
"Stop your nonsense! You're about to die, yet you remain so arrogant..."
Jiang Moyan thought Li Zhu was scared, so he continued to use Li Zhu to threaten him...
Am I being arrogant?
Li Zhu propped one leg up on the chair and shook it wildly, displaying his arrogant demeanor...
Jiang Moyan was speechless. "Aren't you being arrogant? You practically have arrogance written all over your face..."
"Kid, I don't care who you are or who gave you the audacity to be so arrogant. Do you know you're flirting with death?"
Jiang Moyan threatened through gritted teeth!
"I didn't think so. Maybe it's because I didn't see His Highness the Crown Prince in person. If he were here right now, I would definitely bow down in reverence. After all, there aren't many people as upright and pure as the Crown Prince anymore..."
Li Zhu was lavish in his self-praise, which made everyone frown. After all, including Jiang Moyan, they were all the Crown Prince's mortal enemies. Now, they were using the Crown Prince as a backer, which was already disgusting to them. And to keep praising the Crown Prince to intimidate this masked man in front of them felt strange...
"Who is His Highness the Crown Prince? Does he think he can be seen by anyone so easily?"
Jiang Moyan could tell that only Li Zhu could intimidate the person in front of him, so he had no choice but to continue using Li Zhu as a figurehead...
"Then there's nothing I can do. You can't summon His Highness the Crown Prince, and I acted in self-defense. If you're not satisfied, then go ahead and use your strength to get back at him..."
Li Zhu's words infuriated everyone, turning their faces red with anger. They thought to themselves, if he had real strength, what would he have said? The lesson of the Cui family's young master was right before their eyes; how could they dare to make a move…
"Look at you all, so spineless! You want to vent your anger but don't dare to act! You want to solve the puzzle but lack the wisdom. Besides impotent rage, what can you do? If I were you, I'd just find a place to hang myself. A bunch of useless trash, a waste of food when alive, and a waste of land when dead..."
Li Zhu's words made these people's faces turn red with sullen anger, wishing they could disappear into the ground. Nazha upstairs felt even more relieved...
"You're asking for it..."
Jiang Moyan was seething with hatred, but aside from impotent rage, he dared not react in any way…
"Then come and kill me..."
Li Zhu relentlessly provoked the other party…
"Young Master Jiang, please calm down. He's just trying to provoke you. Why bother with someone like him? He's just a nobody trying to get famous through shortcuts. The more you care about him, the more smug he becomes, and he gets what he wants..."
A hundred taels of gold stood by, offering words of comfort…
"Exactly, just a clown trying to provoke Young Master Jiang. He's destined to be a joke..."
"He's so capable, yet he hasn't come up with a solution to the puzzle, so there's no need to bother with him; it'll only cause more trouble..."
The crowd began to belittle Li Zhu, which made Li Zhu sneer, thinking these people were courting death...
"Are you so sure I don't have a way to solve the puzzle either?"
Li Zhu said coldly!
"If you have it, then show it to me! Anyone can talk big."
"Exactly, anyone can talk big, but they act like they know everything..."
