Chapter 152 Testing the bottom line
After the emperor finished his explanation, he returned to the palace, leaving the mess for Li Qun to clean up. Everyone thought that Princess Wanning would definitely die this time, but the emperor did not. Her life was over.
The emperor left such a hand deliberately to create problems for Li Qun. He has wanted to eradicate Li Qun for a long time, but Li Qun is very important, and he has not found anyone who can replace Li Qun as his new right-hand man. people.
So when the newcomer did not show up, the emperor would at most set up some difficult problems to embarrass Li Qun.
If Li Qun handles it well, everything will be fine.
If Li Qun doesn't handle it well, then he will naturally not let Li Qun go, but he will not completely destroy Li Qun as a chess piece. He will beat Li Qun appropriately.
For so many years, Li Qun has solved the problems that the emperor asked him very well, and there is nothing to criticize.
Li Qun's ability and prestige are obvious to all in the court.
In fact, there is another point. This is that Li Qun has always had Cui Xiu in his heart. This is something that the emperor has always known, and he is not surprised.
After all, Li Qun has not married for so many years, and there is no woman around him. He always comes and goes alone, like a lonely man.
It's not that Li Qun couldn't find a suitable match. On the contrary, there were a few ladies in Kyoto who were worthy of Li Qun, and some of them also had feelings for Li Qun.
But Li Qun couldn't see it. What does this mean? It means that Li Qun still has Cui Xiu in his heart.
The emperor saw through it but never said it. He knew that as long as Cui Xiu was in the palace and Li Qun liked Cui Xiu, Li Qun would be used by him.
Taking control of a man is nothing more than using power, money, and the people around you.
The Emperor knew that Li Qun must be feeling uncomfortable. Seeing the person he liked marrying someone else and having children for someone else, the feeling in his heart would be like frying in a frying pan!
In Duke Xu's Mansion, the courtyard where Princess Wanning lived was still blocked. Li Qun entered the courtyard. He pushed the door open and saw Princess Wanning with messy hair and unable to walk.
“Are you here to see my joke?”
When Princess Wanning heard the news, she thought it was Li Cheng who had returned. Over the years, Li Cheng had found ways to humiliate her. Every time, the Queen Mother's words were used to suppress her.
When Wanning was not pregnant, she would fight with Li Cheng, but when she became pregnant, it was not easy for her to fight with Li Cheng even for the sake of the child.
Li Cheng also changed his attitude towards her because of the child, but during her pregnancy, the child was born as a girl.
Li Cheng's face turned cold all of a sudden, and he stayed outside looking for flowers and flowers every day. Wan Ning didn't bother to care about him. After the two of them negotiated, they lived separately.
When Li Qun heard what Princess Wanning said, he closed the door after entering and said, "It's no joke."
"I'm just here to end things. "
Li Qun is not interested in laughing at Princess Wanning. What he is interested in is far more meaningful than laughing at such low-level and boring things.
Now that the emperor placed such an opportunity in front of him, how could he not take advantage of it carefully? After all, such opportunities did not come every time. He originally thought that the emperor was here to protect Wan Wan. Princess Ning's.
But he never thought it would be such a result. This gave him an opportunity to "take advantage of the opportunity".
Go and discuss a deal with Princess Wanning that will make you a sure profit without losing any money.
When Princess Wanning heard Li Qun's voice, she paused but did not turn around immediately. She was obviously judging whether she had heard the wrong voice. After another moment, Princess Wanning turned around. Turning around, when she saw Li Qun's face, a look of surprise appeared on her face. Obviously Princess Wanning did not expect that Li Qun would appear here, or in other words, she did not expect that Li Qun would actually "wipe the butt" of the evil-hearted emperor.
Wan Ning knew everything about how the emperor snatched Cui Xiu. Li Qun not only did not stay away from the emperor who took his wife, but also rushed to Work for the emperor.
It would be fine if this man was just an ordinary person, but he was Li Qun, who was once the most unruly young man in Kyoto.
But no one with some backbone can bear this tone. How could a bright young man like Li Qun endure such humiliation.
Wan Ning felt that Li Qun was the kind of man who would sacrifice his life for the one he loved. His past deeds all proved what Princess Wan Ning was thinking.
Thinking of this, Princess Wanning remembered another crucial thing, that is, Cui Xiu's child is Li Qun's.
For the sake of his own child, Li Qun has been enduring the emperor's hardships, just to support his son to ascend the throne one day and sit on the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.
Until then, Li Xiuhuai was still a piece of shit.
Princess Wanning's thoughts came to this point, and the emotion in her eyes changed again. She felt that she could negotiate a deal with Li Qun.
“Why does Mr. Xu Guogong have time to come to my place?”
“Is it possible that he is also here to add insult to injury?”
“But in this princess’s perception, Mr. Xu Guogong seems to I’ve never bothered with this.”
Princess Wanning thought she knew Li Qun well, but little did she know that the Li Qun of today was no longer the Li Qun of many years ago. After so many years, how could he not change after eating so many more years of food?
When Li Qun heard what Princess Wanning said, he had no intention of beating around the bush with her and said, "Since the princess understands."
"Then I will speak frankly. Let’s be honest.”
“I have a deal here. The princess will give me what I want, and I will protect the princess’s life.”
Li Qun agreed with Wan Ning very seriously. As the princess talked, he knew that when Princess Wanning saw that the person coming in was him, she should have understood something in her heart. He was not an idle person and would not come to her for no reason.
When Princess Wanning heard Li Qun's words, she thought about some issues. She knew that since Li Qun offered a bargaining chip that could protect her life, it must be possible, but she wanted more than just life. No worries.
"Xu Guogong, you might as well tell me what you want."
"This way I can measure whether the chips you gave me are sincere."
Even at this time, Princess Wanning has not forgotten to "bargain" with Li Qun, because she knows that Li Qun will not come to her for no reason. Now that he is here, it will not be a trivial matter.
Li Qun had no expression on his face when he heard Princess Wanning’s bargaining. Then he said, “I’m afraid the princess has forgotten what your majesty just said.”
< br>
"If I leave today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save your life."
Although Li Qun was not present when the emperor was talking to Princess Wanning, he could guess based on the current situation. Some.
In Princess Wanning’s situation, the words “the fish is dead and the net is broken” are clearly written on her face.
