Chapter 5 Your Highness, Please Spare Your Concubine
Li Chen smiled happily.
Everyone in the world is afraid of the power of the Dongchang and the means of killing without blinking an eye, but the royal family is not afraid, because their authority comes from the emperor, and they are also the most loyal lackeys in the hands of the emperor.
As the Dongchang Factory Office, who wanted to survive in the court, was the first to be willing to defect to him.
This force will inevitably become a great help for you.
“Very good.”
Li Chen threw the knife in his hand to the eunuch Sanbao and said, "The father once gave you a knife, but now that knife is rusty. So now I give you this knife, do you want it?"
The eunuch of Sanbao knelt down respectfully, picked up the knife on the ground, and then clenched it tightly and said, "When the emperor handed over the imperial edict to me, he once said that from now on, I will be the knife in the hand of Your Highness."
He looked at the Ganqing Palace who was closed at the palace gate. The emperor who was lying on the dragon couch and insisted on not swallowing it in one breath seemed to have already made arrangements.
"Among many princes, the ninth prince is the youngest. A few years ago, the queen begged the ninth prince to come to raise him, and even asked the father-in-law and the prime minister to teach him personally. I should know the ninth prince's every move every day."
Although he is now the governor of the country, he is still the crown prince. Emperor Daxing will not die for one day and he will not ascend the throne for one day. Then there will be variables in the throne for one day. He believes that no matter whether it is his brothers or ministers in the court, Even those princes who have already settled in the vassal state will have those who are unwilling to give up and covet the throne.
This struggle for imperial power is just the beginning now.
The eunuch of Sanbao said respectfully: "I will send everything your highness wants to know to the East Palace every day."
He looked at the eunuch Sanbao deeply, and Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Go back to the East Palace."
When Li Chen returned to the East Palace, he originally planned to change his clothes, but when he thought of Zhao Rui, he felt that he was so upset inside.
The battle in the Ganqing Palace just now was still in a state of great enthusiasm, which made him urgently need to vent his anger.
So he turned around and headed straight to the bedroom.
However, as soon as Li Chen walked past the corner of the gallery, he saw Chen Zhi standing at the door of the palace where Zhao Rui was.
Chen Zhizheng, who did not notice Li Chen's arrival, said to Zhao Rui in the bedroom with a look of distress and anxiety: "Rui'er, did that prince did anything to you? Please let me go in and take a look, I just want to be good. Look at you! Don't worry, I will kill the prince sooner or later and avenge you!"
"presumptuous!"
In the palace, Zhao Rui's scolding came.
"I am the prince's concubine. According to the system of esteeming and inferiority, you should respectfully call me the prince's concubine. Who will allow you to call me my nickname?"
Standing at the door of the bedroom, Chen Zhi's face turned pale.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I respectfully call you the Prince Concubine, Prince Concubine. Why has you changed so much since you entered the Eastern Palace? Have you forgotten that I took care of you before?"
Zhao Rui said angrily: "Nonsense, I was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time. When was it your turn to take care of me? At that time, I just saw you like me, as the Prime Minister's distant relative. I said a few more words to you, except There is nothing else, don’t swear.”
Chen Zhi's face was distorted because of excitement. He growled: "No, you always know that I like you. I have liked you for a long time! Rui'er, tell me, is that the prince threatening you? He Have you forcibly insulted you today? As long as you say yes, no matter what, I will take off the head of the prince's dog to avenge you!"
"roll!"
Zhao Rui was furious and her voice rose a lot. She threw a teapot from the bedroom and smashed Chen Zhi's feet with a bang.
"My affairs have nothing to do with you. Don't come to see me again in the future, otherwise don't blame me for turning against you!"
Chen Zhi looked at the teapot shattered around his feet and felt that his heart was broken.
I was sincere, but Zhao Rui stepped on me.
This taste made him feel crazy.
He blamed Li Chen for all the blame, and he growled with bloody eyes: "No matter what you say, I know that everything is because of the prince of the dog. Wait, wait for me to take revenge!
”
After finishing his words, Chen Zhi suddenly found a pair of exquisite and gorgeous golden silk cloud boots appeared beside the fragments of the teapot.
After a slump in his heart, Chen Zhi felt his scalp numb. He subconsciously raised his head slowly along the boots, and his eyes moved up inch by inch until it fell on Li Chen's face without any expression.
"You said that I am the prince of the dog, and I have to remove my head?"
Li Chen's expression was indifferent, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Chen Zhi and said.
Chen Zhi took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "High job...High job..."
"Come."
Li Chen was too lazy to listen to Chen Zhi’s explanation at all.
No matter what he said, his fate was destined from the moment Li Chen found that he was standing in front of Zhao Rui's palace.
Behind Li Chen, two guards wearing double-winged goose feather suits walked out.
Seeing the clothes of the two guards, Chen Zhi widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Dong, Dongchang Jinyiwei!?"
Since its establishment, the Jinyiwei of the East Factory has only followed the emperor's orders.
Chen Zhi, who had followed Li Chen and the Queen to the Qianqing Palace, but was not qualified to enter, had no idea how tremendous changes had occurred in the Qianqing Palace and the entire Qin Empire in just one hour.
Chen Zhi's expression changed drastically. He knew very well that once he fell into the hands of Dongchang, he would be a terrible end.
"I am the distant relative of the chief minister of the dynasty, Lord Zhao, and the head of the guards in the palace of the Empress. You can't hand me over to the East Factory!" Chen Zhi shouted.
"Leave it to Dongchang? You're thinking too much."
Li Chen sneered and said, "Press this insulting thing in front of the palace and punish one hundred sticks."
Hearing this order, Chen Zhi was frightened.
A hundred stick punishment sounds less impactful than a behead, but in the punishment of the Qin Dynasty, this wooden stick that was punished by a stick was one person long and two slaps wide, hitting the other end of the prisoner.
There is a layer of fine nails on the surface of the wooden stick, and the executioner is required to hit him with all his strength.
Such a punishment for a stick, as long as ten sticks are taken down, it will be enough to crippled an ordinary person.
One hundred staffs are enough to beat Chen Zhi's lower body into flesh paste.
"Li Chen! Do you dare to beat me to death? The Queen and Lord Zhao will never let you go!"
Two guards from the East Factory were escorting Chen Zhi, who kept struggling and scolding.
"The Lord Zhao you mentioned is just a minister of the royal family. This palace represents the royal family. Even if you kill you, what can you do, and what can Zhao Xuanji do?"
Li Chen sneered and waved his hand and said, "Drag on, fight hard, and fight carefully. If you don't have enough of a hundred scepters, you will die. The remaining two of you will suffer for him."
Li Chen's words made the two executioners' eyes cold. Then they covered Chen Zhi's mouth and dragged him to the open space in front of the hall. The guard who covered his mouth sneered: "I'm sorry."
It’s the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I dare not disobey, so I have to let you enjoy these hundred sticks.”
Chen Zhi's tragic scream came from outside, and Li Chen had already walked into the side hall.
Zhao Rui clearly heard the conversation outside and knew what was going on.
Chen Zhi's screams made Zhao Rui's face turn pale.
"Scared?"
Li Chen raised his hand and gently stroked Zhao Rui's tender face and asked.
Zhao Rui pursed her lips, panic, and she instinctively stepped back to avoid Li Chen's aggressive palm.
But her hiding seemed to arouse Li Chen's interest.
He raised his hand to hold Zhao Rui's wrist and gently walked into Li Chen's arms.
"ah!"
Amid Zhao Rui's scream, Li Chen's big hand pressed against her delicate waist, slowly stroked downwards, and chuckled: "Your answer just now made me very satisfied, so I decided to tell you
A good news.”
Zhao Rui's whole thoughts were on Li Chen's big hand that was causing trouble behind him. Hearing this, he instinctively asked: "What news?"
"Just just now, my father appointed me as the crown prince of the governor. From this moment on, I was no longer the crown prince who was no name but had no actual authority, but the crown prince who exercised the emperor's power on behalf of my father and patroled the world on behalf of the heavens.
”
"Chen Zhi, who was screaming outside, was just the beginning. If Zhao Xuanji wanted to change his dynasty, then he would end up like this sooner or later."
His fingers pinched Zhao Rui's chin and made her look up at him. Li Chen said, "How is it, it's good news."
Zhao Rui was full of surprise and shock, but before she could speak, the big hand Li Chen placed behind her had already reached the important point of her daughter's house, which was so shocked that she exhaled softly.
"Yes, it's good news, Your Highness, don't... I'm sorry, I'm still a little bit hurt."
"Don't worry, this time, I promised to just hug and do nothing."
Li Chen made a promise with confidence, and with his fingers, he pulled open the strap around her waist.
"Your Highness, you said you didn't do anything!" "Yes, but I said I would hug you too. Since I hugged you, it would be more natural to wear clothes?" Li Chen buried his head in Zhao Rui's warm, soft and fragrant neck.
He said the most shameless words in the most innocent tone, and wherever his hands touched were the most delicate and beautiful skin of a woman.
