Chapter 282: It’s Over! Something’s Wrong!
After returning home, the Prince of Jin was so angry that he punched his wheelchair. He had endured humiliation and worked hard for so long, but in the end, it was all for others!
It should be his people who caught the rebels and listed the chain of evidence that Prince An intended to rebel, but he didn't expect that the commander of the military department, Xia Su, would react so quickly and get ahead of him!
Xia Su, this is Concubine Rou's brother!
Concubine Rou also gave birth to a prince. One can imagine how her son would be treated!
There is my uncle Xia Su, and He Lin from the He Family Business!
Not to mention that once the eldest prince falls, the imperial merchant Yu family that supports the eldest prince will also be seriously 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 gloomy his face became.
He deliberately overthrew his elder brother, but instead fostered a new rival. Emperor Qingning was still many years away from his death. By then, he would be old, and the baby in Concubine Rou's belly would still be very young.
Prince Jin looked at Hou Xiaoxiao who had entered the palace gate with him and asked, "Why don't you speak for me in front of my father?"
Hou Xiaoxiao pretended to be confused even though she knew the truth: "Your Highness is confused. How dare I speak for you? That would only bring trouble upon you! Once the incident with Prince An comes out, the Emperor will surely become suspicious of the other princes. You'd better keep a low profile at this time."
"Although there is a grudge between us, we will always prosper together and suffer together. If you end up badly, I won't be any better off either."
Hou Xiaoxiao persuaded him patiently, her tone gentle and harmless: "My lord, 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 long while, Prince Jin thought more and more that what she said made sense, and he became more certain of his guess at the palace banquet. In fact, the princess cared about him very much, but she went against him because of her self-esteem, but she still agreed with him in terms of interests.
Prince Jin had lost too much money in this game. Reconciling with Hou Xiaoxiao was his only option. His attitude also improved a lot: "I hope the princess will take 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 really amazing. You can even PUA such a great prince. 】
【@张小胖: I am indeed the best in the workplace! 】
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 exhausting.
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. The mouth of the bottle was plugged with a wooden stopper. Inside the bottle were some ants with black shells emitting dark blue light, crawling on the bottle wall.
She found this ant on a dilapidated piece of wood in the government office. Khan with kidney deficiency said that this kind of ant is suitable for practicing Gu, and such ants can't be found on the grassland. He asked Jiang Lili to collect more and give them to him in a red envelope when the time comes.
When Jiang Lili was bored waiting for the Beijing team to ask for help, she collected these 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 reveal 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 his friends have been concerned about the Lantern Festival Palace Banquet in the capital since the afternoon.
Just now, Xin Che had learned from Liao Dabao that his aunt and his 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.
Yes, 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 more 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. She heard someone calling her. She opened her eyes slightly and saw 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 went further and placed her hand on Xin Che's cheek, rubbing it like a hooligan teasing a virgin.
Lord God of War’s handsome face feels wonderful, not too soft nor too rough.
Jiang Lili even pinched him, leaving a few faint 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 she would run away after teasing him. She would forget about it when she woke up and thought it was a dream. It really made him angry!
How can he take the initiative to remind him?
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 clamped Jiang Lili's thin wrist domineeringly, gnashing his teeth and whispering in her ear: "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 confused and obedient look, Xin Che's anger immediately dissipated. He closed his eyes, let go of her wrist, and said softly, "I only care about you."
There was no response from inside the room for a long while, apparently everyone was too sleepy to fall asleep again.
Xin Che let out a long sigh.
With a sullen face, he leaned down, 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. The stopper of the test tube in her sleeve was not inserted tightly, and it fell off with a "click" as her hand moved.
The trapped ant finally found the exit.
