Chapter 738: It Seed That He Would Have To Do It The Hard Way
Hearing his words, Lu Liangwei stopped in her tracks and could not help looking in the direction he was pointing with a frown.
Wasn’t that the courtyard where the Virtuous Consort stayed?
She furrowed her brow.
Long Chi took a few steps closer and whispered, “You’re always thinking of Royal Uncle, but I’m afraid that he doesn’t care about you right now. He’s probably having the ti of his life with another woman in his arms…”
Long Chi’s words ca to an abrupt halt. Less than a finger away was a glinting dagger, its blade pointed right at his heart.
His face was instantly livid. “Lu Liangwei, you!” He was enraged beyond words.
Lu Liangwei looked at him mockingly. “I thought you were a talker, Prince. Go on then, why have you suddenly beco mute?”
Long Chi quickly regained his composure. Convinced that she was bluffing, he softened his tone. “I know that you can’t accept it right now, but it’s the truth. If you don’t believe , you can go there and see for yourself.”
However, Lu Liangwei did not respond to his words and said nonchalantly instead, “I got this dagger from His Majesty. You know, I used it to kill a tiger two days ago. I made a deep gash in the tiger’s throat with the sharp blade, and its blood spilled all over the ground. That just shows how sharp this dagger is! Just think about it – if I were to accidentally shake my hand and scratch you, what would happen? Would you end up just like that tiger?”
Long Chi’s pupils shrank, and his expression turned ghastly as he growled through gritted teeth, “Lu Liangwei!”
“How dare you! No matter what, I’m still your aunt. By calling my na, you’re not just disrespecting your elders – you’re being insubordinate! Now tell , how should I punish you?” Lu Liangwei rebuked him sternly.
For a while, Long Chi was at a loss for words, and after a long mont, he sneered and said, “I can let you play aunt with , but do you really think you, a re Empress, can punish ?”
“I can’t, but your royal uncle can. You’ve offended several tis, and I’ve given you chances ti and ti again. Since you refuse to repent, I’ll let His Majesty decide what to do with you.” Lu Liangwei had no intention of playing nice with him.
Since Long Yang needed a reason to depose him as Crown Prince, was offending the Empress a good enough cri?
How could such an immoral person be qualified for the position of Crown Prince?
When Long Chi realized the implicit aning of her words, his face darkened.
It seed that he would have to do it the hard way!
He had tried to be amiable every ti, but she refused to appreciate it in the least.
He suddenly shouted, “Lu Liangwei, look who it is!”
Lu Liangwei was about to leave, but her worry for the Emperor made her turn around at his words.
However, the mont she turned her head, sothing cold splashed onto her face, flowing past the corner of her lips and into her mouth.
“Pah!” Appalled, she spat unhesitantly in Long Chi’s face and imdiately took out a pill and swallowed it.
The triumph on Long Chi’s face was instantly replaced by a nacing gloom.
His eyes flashing with cruelty, he wiped the saliva from his face and was about to grab her arm when a sword barred his way.
“Please rember your place, Your Highness!” Chu Jiu reminded coldly.
She did not expect the Crown Prince to do sothing as despicable as splashing dicine on the Empress. As she was not alert enough just now, the Empress ended up taking the blow.
Thank goodness the Empress had dical skills, or else she would not know what to do.
Seeing that Lu Liangwei could still take a pill calmly at this mont, she was slightly relieved.
“Are you trying to be insubordinate, Chu Jiu?” Long Chi glared at her threateningly.
Chu Jiu did not budge. “My duty is to protect the Empress. Please don’t make my job difficult, Your Highness..”
