Chapter 251: I was sent by His Majesty to assassinate you
Liang Qingzhou swallowed and tried to comfort Zhao Jinghua, "Brother, I understand your feelings. If it were me, I would do the same. So what do you plan to do now?"
Zhao Jinghua opened his eyes and looked at Liang Qingzhou quietly, as if he was trying to find out whether what he said was true or not. After a moment, Zhao Jinghua turned his head and sneered, "Test him for me first. If he has no intention of competing with these juniors for the throne, I will not kill him. Remember not to tell him that I am still alive."
Liang Qingzhou heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "Okay, okay, don't worry, Senior Brother. Do you have any other instructions?"
Zhao Jinghua glanced at him and didn't answer. Instead, he jumped up, crossed the wall of the Prime Minister's Mansion and returned to the palace. Liang Qingzhou raised his hand and gently stroked his chest to calm himself down, while muttering, "Hey... Don't save people casually in the future. I have to ask if I have a grudge against my senior brother. It would be terrible if I save my senior brother's enemy again. He tolerated me once, but would kill me with a knife the second time. My senior brother has a good temper. If it were me, I would poison him and kill him with a knife."
At this time, Chu Wan in the palace slowly woke up from the illusion. She was wearing a gauze dress with only a red bellyband underneath. The breeze would reveal her fair body. Zhao Jinghua sat on the couch with his back to her, then pretended to adjust his clothes. When he turned to look at Chu Wan, he couldn't look directly at her and looked to the side. "You should have a good rest," he said, and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Chu Wan thought Zhao Jinghua was shy, so she boldly raised her hand and grabbed Zhao Jinghua's sleeve, "Your Majesty, are you leaving now? Didn't you just promise me to stay and accompany me?"
When Zhao Jinghua heard this, although he didn't know what she had promised in her fantasy, he probably guessed that in Chu Wan's fantasy, he should have obeyed her in everything. Thinking of this, he restrained the murderous intent in his eyes, turned his head and gave Chu Wan a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "Okay," he said, turned around, bent down and covered Chu Wan with a brocade quilt, covering Chu Wan's body tightly, leaving only her head exposed. "Don't catch a cold in late autumn," he said, and slowly sat down on the couch.
At the same time, Wan Sutong and Feng Ming finished their meal and slowly came to the backyard. When they saw Liang Qingzhou hesitantly lying on the stone table like a deflated ball, they thought he was dead, so they quickly ran towards Liang Qingzhou.
However, when Liang Qingzhou heard the footsteps, he slowly raised his head and yawned, "Sister-in-law, you are back."
Wan Sutong was relieved when she heard this. "Where's Jinghua?"
Liang Qingzhou stretched lazily and pointed at the wall. "I wonder if he was mad at me and jumped into that yard." As soon as he said this, Feng Ming suddenly remembered what Chu Wan said, and then whispered in Wan Sutong's ear, "He should have cast an illusion on Chu Wan. When the time comes, he has to go back. I'll take my brother back, and you go with 0533 to take a look. I guess this is what happened."
Wan Sutong made an OK gesture to Feng Ming, then jumped up and stepped on the tiles to head straight to the backyard of the Prince Regent's Mansion.
When she arrived at the backyard and saw that Chu Wan's room was still lit by candlelight, Wan Sutong walked carefully to the window with light steps, then opened the window a crack and looked into the room.
Chu Wan carefully reached out her hand and held Zhao Jinghua's hand. "Prince... I..." Chu Wan hesitated to speak and just looked at Zhao Jinghua with a slightly red cheek.
Wan Sutong roared in her heart when she saw this, but she reacted after a moment, "It's over, the system has exposed me, I forgot that Jinghua can hear my voice"
Zhao Jinghua glanced out the window with his eyebrows slightly raised, and at the same time put Chu Wan's hand back into the quilt. "You can say whatever you want."
After hearing this, Wan Sutong suppressed her smile and talked to 0533 in her mind, "System, why do I feel like Jinghua is talking to me?" After saying this, she continued to look into the room
0533 Hehehe smiled and said, "I think so too."
At this time, Chu Wan pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before she dared to speak, "I was sent by His Majesty to assassinate you."
Wan Sutong felt a little bit of disbelief at her honesty after hearing this. "System, is she doing this to gain trust?"
0533 sighed and then shook his head in confusion. "I don't know. Host, please open the window a little wider. This system will go in and take a look and help you analyze it." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jinghua in the room chuckled and said in a calm tone, "Of course I know. Who taught you all these today?" Upon hearing this, Wan Sutong hurriedly helped 0533 open the window a little more.
0533 squeezed in with great effort, and the next moment she saw Chu Wan biting her lower lip with worry in her eyes, and the next moment she burst into tears, "Your Majesty asked a maid to teach me, and I didn't want to do this, but Your Majesty threatened me with my mother, and I gave my body to you, you won't abandon me, right?"
Zhao Jinghua frowned and was about to speak when he heard 0533 say, "According to the analysis of this system, this is % true."
Zhao Jinghua sighed and then slowly stood up. "It's getting late. I'll come to see you tomorrow." After saying that, he walked away. 0533 saw this and hurriedly followed him. "Wait for this system. Don't leave this system in the room!"
When he opened the door, he saw Wan Sutong standing outside the door waiting. When she saw Zhao Jinghua coming out, she hurriedly pulled him away. After they walked out of Chu Wan's courtyard, Wan Sutong whispered, "This girl doesn't seem as bad as you thought."
Zhao Jinghua held Wan Sutong in his arms and smiled tiredly, "What do you think we should do, Madam?"
Wan Sutong puffed up her cheeks and thought carefully, "Why not let her stay in Fengming Tower after everything is over?"
Zhao Jinghua chuckled after hearing this, and a hint of subtle sinisterness appeared in his eyes. "Okay, I'll listen to you, Madam."
Wan Sutong looked up at Zhao Jinghua and then looked at him suspiciously, "Tell me the truth, if the girl hadn't told you these words, would you have planned to use her and then kill her?"
Zhao Jinghua lowered his eyes slightly and curled his lips slightly, agreeing with Wan Sutong's statement.
Wan Sutong raised her hand and tapped Zhao Jinghua's forehead with her left index finger. "You are so scary! I can't imagine if I will be kept in the dark by you like she is."
Zhao Jinghua raised his hand and held Wan Sutong's fingers in his palm, leaned over and whispered in Wan Sutong's ear, "Then how can Madam trust me? Why not wait until everything is over, and then I will tell Madam all my past. Then Madam will understand why I am like this, how about it?" Zhao Jinghua's voice was low and sincere, and the last two words ended with a hint of temptation.
Wan Sutong only felt her heartbeat speeding up and her breathing becoming more and more rapid. Her cheeks gradually turned red. "Okay," she said, then she turned her head and kissed Zhao Jinghua's cheek.
The next moment, the fatigue between Zhao Jinghua's eyebrows was instantly swept away, and then he chuckled and kissed Wan Sutong on the forehead. "It's late, go to bed early. You still have to go to Qinggu Sect tomorrow. Have you prepared a gift?"
0533 and Wan Sutong were shocked when they heard this and exclaimed, "You want a gift?"
