Chapter 375 Strange Jade Pendant
Hearing his question, the woman took out a jade pendant from her cuff and raised it.
"Prince Xi, this jade pendant was given to me by Concubine Li's biological mother back then. If you hand this jade pendant to her, she will understand everything."
Looking at the jade pendant, Leng Xi's face was gloomy and asked in a cold voice:
"Did you look for me to give me this jade pendant?"
The woman bowed and took a few steps back, and said with a serious expression:
"Prince Xi, please hand it over to Concubine Li as soon as possible. Let's come today. There are other things. This is my son Li Tianyang. Let him tell you in detail."
Leaving this sentence, Mrs. Li took two steps back and walked slowly out of Lengxi's study, and after stepping onto the water door, she closed the door directly.
Leng Xi was a little puzzled by the mother and daughter's actions, but was full of curiosity.
After his mother left, Li Tianyang bowed and clasped his fists and said:
"Prince Xi, I'm here today to negotiate a deal with you."
"trade?"
Hearing these two words, Leng Xi raised his head and smiled, "Hahaha, come and talk to me about the deal? Who do you think you are?"
Li Tianyang continued without rushing and irritating:
"Please listen to me and make a conclusion before you finish your sentence."
"Okay, tell me."
Leng Xi touched Mrs. Li's jade pendant and looked at Li Tianyang curiously. He wanted to see what he could say.
Li Tianyang cleared his throat and said with a serious expression:
"Now, the person who threatens Prince Xi, you are the most threatening Prince Yu, and Prince Yu has Liu Dechang behind his back. Although you have become a relative of Yu Shiming's daughter, you cannot fight against Liu Dechang, so now you can be sure if Xi
Prince, don’t make plans early. When the emperor passes away, Prince Yu can sit on the throne without any suspense. If you want to compete with him, it’s simply like hitting a stone with an egg, and there is no chance of winning.”
His words made Leng Xi's face so gloomy as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He wanted to get angry, but after thinking about it carefully, his words seemed to make some sense. In fact, this was also a problem he had been worried about.
Although he has now established the Weizhen Gang and has also installed his own people in the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue, this is not enough to compete with Liu Dechang's millions of troops.
He lowered his face and looked at him with a sharp look, "You keep talking."
Seeing this, Li Tianyang raised his eyebrows and continued:
"And I can help you ascend the throne."
"Hahaha……"
His words made Leng Xi laugh directly at the sky. This Li Tianyang really didn't know that the world was high.
After laughing, he looked at him with deep eyes, "Li Tianyang, do you? Help me? What are you helping me?"
Li Tianyang's eyes flashed a few times and said proudly:
"I came here today just to show off, so I don't hide it from you. I am from Chu State in the Western Regions. I can use the entire Chu State's troops to help you."
"What did you say?"
Hearing this sentence, Leng Xi immediately slapped the table and asked.
"Gentiles dare to come to my country of Daning to do evil, but they dare to come to my Xi Palace blatantly? I see you are so tired of living."
Although Leng Xi was furious, Li Tianyang was not afraid, but his pupils shrank slightly and continued:
"Prince Xi, don't worry, I'm thinking about you too. If you don't want to cooperate with our Chu State, then you don't want to sit on the throne."
Leng Xi looked at Li Tianyang with glaring eyes and shook his hand disdainfully.
"Hmph! Whether you can take the throne or not is also my Daning native. It has nothing to do with you, a Gentile. But since you came here on your own initiative today, don't blame me for being rude to you."
After saying that, he shouted to the people outside:
"Come here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and several guards from the Xiwang Mansion broke in.
Leng Xi pointed at Li Tianyang and said:
"Catch this man and send him to the Ministry of Justice."
Li Tianyang chuckled slowly, then raised his eyebrows and said:
"I advise Prince Xi not to be impulsive, first, give the jade pendant in your hand to Concubine Li, and then decide how to deal with me."
When talking about the jade pendant, Leng Xi suddenly thought of Li Tianyang's mother. He hurriedly questioned the guard who had just come in:
"Where is that woman outside?"
The guard shook his head in confusion.
"She left after she got out of here."
Hearing this, Leng Xi held the jade pendant tightly in his hand and said to the guard:
"Please lock him in the woodshed first and take good care of him."
Li Tianyang let the guards raise his arm without any struggle. He looked at Leng Xi and reminded him word by word and pride:
"Prince Xi, I want to go out from you, it's easy, but don't worry, I won't leave, I'll wait for you, you'd better let Concubine Li see this jade pendant as soon as possible, otherwise something will happen and you'll be tired at that time
If you don’t have to pay the price, then it will be more than worth the loss.”
Leaving this sentence, he turned around without hesitation, and generously walked out under the escort of the guards.
Leng Xi looked at the jade pendant in his hand coldly. The pattern on it was obviously different from the jade products of Daning Kingdom, but what does this jade pendant have to do with his mother?
Sitting in the study, Leng Xi was thinking about this question. If it wasn't that it was too late, he would have entered the palace to ask what was going on.
...
The next morning, above the Shuntian Mansion Palace.
Yu Shiming sat in the main seat of the court. He picked up the gavel on the table with a serious expression, shouted with a dark face:
"Sum... Hall!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone brought in Caizhu Li, Lord Zhou and Master Yuangang.
They knelt on the ground, looked at Yu Shiming in the main hall, looked at Leng Yu and Princess Yu who were sitting on the left listening, and then lowered their heads.
At this time, Yu Shiming patted the agglomeration and shouted loudly:
"People from the hall, please sign up."
The rich man Li replied first:
"Caomin Li Hongfu, from Lijiazhuang."
"The lower official Zhou Dasheng, the magistrate of Minghua County."
"My name is Yuan Gang..."
Master Yuan Gang was about to use his tricks to answer Yu Shiming's question. When he saw Leng Yu's sharp eyes, he immediately shut up and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.
Yu Shiming asked again while patting the agglomeration wood.
"You three are murdering good women. Do you agree to this matter?"
Hearing this, the rich man Li kowtowed first:
"Sir, we are wronged. Those women voluntarily married into the Li family, and they also took our family's money, so this is not called cruelty at all."
After saying this, he suddenly looked at Luo Lan and said:
"Didn't Princess Yu be sold to Prince Yu's mansion? Even if the royal family can do this, why can't we ordinary people?"
His words made Leng Yu's eyes appear with a hint of coldness. With his backhand, an iron bead as big as a finger cover appeared in his hand, and he aimed directly at the forehead of the rich man Li.
"ah!"
The rich man Li suddenly covered his forehead and shouted,
Chapter completed!
