Lengxi squinted her eyes slightly and looked at her, feeling a little more disgusted suddenly. This woman and Shui Luolan grew up together, why is there such a big gap?

But in order to stabilize this woman, Lengxi still nodded coldly,

"What this king said is naturally true, but you can't go out and talk nonsense. A woman can live smoothly only if she keeps her mouth shut."

Shui Chunhua bit her lip, brushed her long hair, blushed and nodded shyly,

"Lord Xi, don't worry, I won't tell others about this, then I'll go back and wait for your good news."

Leng Xi frowned, and shouted to the groom:

"parking."

The moment the car stopped, he opened the car curtain door and got out of the car, then said to Shui Chunhua:

"Let the coachman take you back, remember what I told you, don't talk nonsense, or be careful that someone will shut you up forever."

Leaving this sentence behind, he lowered the car curtain door and said coldly to the driver:

"Send her to Changliu Village."

After the coachman took the order, he raised his whip and slapped the horse's back. After the horse roared, it sped away.

Shui Chunhua raised the car curtain door and glanced at Lengxi, then curled her neck and snickered.

She said to herself proudly,

"Shui Luolan, you are just a Princess Yu, and I, Shui Chunhua, will soon be a princess. When that day comes, I will stand in front of you and ask you to kowtow to me, hahaha..."

Thinking of this, she was so happy from ear to ear, she seemed to see herself living in the palace, becoming a concubine, and being served by court ladies and eunuchs.

Only Leng Xi knew that this was just his tactic to delay the attack. The mother concubine wanted him to turn this case over overnight, so he had no other choice but to use both soft and hard tactics against these women.

Among them, only Shui Chunhua, a whimsical woman, was easy to fool, and the rest of the women refused to retract their confessions unless their families were threatened.

When Lengxi lowered his head to think about this, there was a person blocking Lengxi's way. He looked up with a cold face, and met Li Tianyang's slightly stupid face.

"Lord Xi, the method is high enough, and someone like Li admires it. I don't know if you have made up your mind, do you want to cooperate with us?"

For these Chu people, Leng Xi hated them from the bottom of his heart. If it wasn't for the inexplicable force of his mother and concubine, he would not help them even if he was killed.

So, with a look of disdain on his face, he directly replied in a cold voice:

"Get out! Fool, stay away from me, or I will send you directly to Shuntian Mansion."

After leaving this sentence, he didn't look back, and strode away without hesitation.

Looking at his back, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Li Tianyang's mouth, and he murmured in a low voice:

"Sooner or later, you will come to beg me."

Before he finished speaking, a gust of evil wind blew by, and a fallen leaf blew on his face. He frowned and took the fallen leaf in his hand, then held it up in front of his eyes, tearing the leaf into pieces. The teeth are also clenching at this time...

Leng Xi, who was walking all the way, felt that if he didn't understand this matter, he would have no way to feel at ease, so after he left Shuntian Mansion, he went straight to the palace.

In Liyuan, Concubine Li turned a deaf ear to his questioning and kept interrupting him,

"Xi'er, how is Qiaoqiao these days? She's about to give birth, you need to spend more time with her."

Lengxi didn't want to answer her question, but continued to ask:

"Mother Concubine, what happened to that jade pendant? What relationship do you have with the Chu people? Why do we help them? We should throw them out of Daning Kingdom."

"Shut up."

Concubine Li frowned suddenly, and looked at him coldly, "I've already told you, don't mention this matter for now, you are disobedient, these people, you can't drive them out, when they come to you, You have to persuade them well and don't anger them."

"why?"

Leng Xi's voice suddenly rose, and his eyes were sharp, "They are from the state of Chu, and they are at odds with the state of Daning. You still want me to persuade them well? I will order people to arrest them now and send them to the Ministry of Punishment Go to interrogation."

After saying this, Lengxi turned around angrily, and took big steps to leave.

"stop."

Concubine Li called him to stop, the moment Lengxi stopped, she quickly walked up to him, stared at him with resentful eyes, bit her lower lip, and said with a sense of loss:

"Do you think I want this? I can't help it..."

Speaking of this, Concubine Li breathed a sigh of relief, closed her eyes, and shouted hysterically,

"I thought I could quietly be the imperial concubine for the rest of my life, support you on the throne, and watch your children grow up slowly, but whoever thought it was time to come will eventually come."

She raised the handkerchief in her hand, wiped it at the corner of her eyes, and continued:

"Up to now, the mother and concubine will not hide it from you. In fact, I am originally from the state of Chu. I came to the palace by accident, became a concubine, and gave birth to you, but I was born in the state of Chu. Big one, I can't forget my roots!"

She looked at Leng Xi with a serious face, she knew she couldn't tell him the truth, otherwise he would definitely not be able to bear it.

Hearing this, Leng Xi looked at her with unbelievable eyes, shook his head in grief,

"No, you reported your ancestral home when you entered the palace. You are a woman from Jiangnan, how could you be from Chu? Don't lie to me."

"Xi'er..."

Seeing that Leng Xi's emotions were getting a little out of control, Concubine Li hurriedly called out to him, "Xi'er, I didn't lie to you, I have also thought about it during this time, since they are here, they said they can help you, why don't we use it? As long as you can ascend to the throne, no matter what method you use, it doesn't matter."

"No, no, I won't let Chu people help me, I don't need it."

"Xi'er, stop obsessing over mysteries. Can't you see the current situation of Daning Kingdom? The power in the military is in the hands of Liu Dechang, and Leng Yu is the general of the town. When will your father give such an honor?" Over you? Now in your father's heart, Leng Yu is already the best candidate for the emperor, so you can only rely on yourself to fight against them, and you have no soldiers and no power, how can you fight against Liu Dechang's million soldiers? How does it compare with Leng Yu, the town general?"

Lengxi already knew what Li Fei said, but he still couldn't accept the help from Chu people.

So, he shook his head vigorously again in despair,

"Don't mention this matter again. I will solve it myself. Now I can only guarantee that as long as those Chu people stop doing evil, I can turn a blind eye to it. Otherwise, I will never spare them lightly."

After leaving these words, he strode away quickly like a gust of wind.

Looking at his back, Concubine Li's face suddenly turned pale, Nanny Lu hurriedly took two steps forward, and softly persuaded:

"Mistress, take care of yourself."

"My body doesn't belong to me. Whether I can keep it or not is not up to me."

After saying this, she turned around lonely and walked towards the inner room.
