Chapter 719: Even a viper doesn't eat its own offspring
ce"As soon as Li Chen spoke, Ge Pingyi's face turned pale.Li Chen coldly smiled and said, "Can't speak, can you Then I'll take that as a confession.""Open the cell and bring Xu Changqing out. You, Ge...Chapter 719: Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs, you're worse than that.
Scattered teacup shards and a pool of water on the ground, Zhao Tailai rolled on the floor, screaming in agony.
This scene made the Liu family gasp in shock.
But as the core of the Liu family, Liu Sicun kept his face tense and dared not speak a word.
With his bruised face and swollen features, Liu Sidar looked at Liu Sicun, then at Li Chen. He knew what to do.
All right.
The Crown Prince is actually interested in his younger sister.
Thinking of this, Liu Sida immediately beamed with delight.
This business is more profitable than any other in the world.
It wasn't just him; Liu's third uncle, as an elder, was also eager to see the event.
Those who understand, understand.
And Zhao Tailai on the ground cried out in pain, "I truly don't know anything about this! I was just thinking of making some money to take to Jinling next month when my father sends me there. I wanted something to help with expenses. If I had known it belonged to Your Highness, I would have dared not touch it."
Zhao Tailai's words are absolutely from the heart.
And among them, a very small detail was caught by Li Chen.
Zhaoxuanji is going to send Zhaotailai to the capital next month.
Zhao Tailai was blissfully unaware, while Li Chen knew the truth.
Jinling, that was the domain of the King Wen.
Zhaoxuanji personally killed Li Junze, this was Wenwang's revenge.
He also wants to kill Zhao Xuanji's son.
Looking at the current situation, Zhao Xuanji seems to be willing to compromise.
He fixed his eyes on Zhao Tailai, and his mind immediately buzzed with ideas.
Is there any room for maneuver here
If caught, it could cost Zhao Xuanji his life.
"Get up." Li Chen said lightly.
Zhao Tailai struggled to get up. At this time, blood flowed from his forehead and scalp. Half of his face was scalded red by the boiling tea. Although he was in extreme pain and discomfort, Zhao Tailai still endured it without making a sound. He just said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, you have vented your anger, so please spare me. You don't like seeing me. I will go back and tell my father, and I will leave for Jinling immediately. I will definitely not let you see me again."
Li Chen said calmly, “It seems you still don’t know why your father sent you to Jinling”
Zhao Tailai was taken aback for a moment, then said, “He said it was because the situation in Beijing was tense...”
"I've been anxious so much lately. Why did you just have to send you to Nanjing this time"
Li Chen said calmly, "Because he killed Prince Li Junze with his own hands, and Wen Wang wants revenge, so he will send your biological son to him to be killed."
As soon as these words left his mouth, Zhao Tailai's entire demeanor changed.
"It's impossible!"
Anyone who hears that their own father wants to kill them would initially react with disbelief. Zhao Tailai was no exception.
"King Wen wants to kill me, how could my father send me to my death"
"Because your father needs Wen Wang's help to overthrow this palace."
Li Chen said indifferently, "If King Wen doesn't make a move, then it won't just be you who dies, but your entire Zhao clan."
"Wen Wang, could you possibly have such skill... No! It's you, you want to kill my entire Zhao family!"
Li Chen said: "Not stupid at all."
"Your father is afraid, afraid that this palace will bring him down and hold him accountable. So he can only rally all the power he can, like Duke Wen. And Li Junze's death is the biggest obstacle between him and Duke Wen. To remove this obstacle, he can only sacrifice you."
Li Chen said with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Zhao Xuanji, you are truly a hero. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own child, yet he could do such a thing."
Zhao Tailai's eyes were bloodshot, his face etched with disbelief and despair.
He mumbled that Li Chen was trying to sow discord, but from his expression, he seemed to believe it seven or eight out of ten.uickly."Flattery and attributing accomplishments to superiors are, after all, politically correct practices in official circles.Su Zheting nodded and said, "Yes, yes."The two chatted absentmindedly fo...
