I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 615 "Ling'er, do you believe in Brother 2?"

Late at night, Zhao Chuxi sat up from the huge gold-inlaid bed.

Beside him, the woman's curvy and graceful figure outlined a perfect curve.

The moonlight poured into the room, and what was seen was the charming and graceful figure of the woman, but her pale face had long lost its color.

The woman's eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly parted, and there was some congealed blood at the corners of her eyes and in her mouth and nose.

The white and tender skin was covered with scars like thorns.

Zhao Chuxi took a deep breath, smelling the hormones and bloody scent in the room.

He got off the bed and put on a black silk shirt with a dragon pattern on it.

The fiery madness in his eyes gradually faded away, leaving behind a handsome face with a hint of evil charm.

The anger that Qin Ling had aroused before was finally released, and there was an indescribable satisfaction on his face.

At this moment, a dark shadow appeared in the room.

Judging from her figure, she should be a woman.

She glanced at the woman who had already died on the big bed, her eyes were calm and her tone was emotionless.

"Your Highness, Qin Ling did meet with Yu Shouye in private."

“Pfft, hahahahaha—”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Chuxi laughed out loud. The laughter seemed to be sarcastic, but more of it was playful. He looked at the woman in black with gloomy eyes and asked,

"Xiao Nan, am I really such a fool?"

Qi An Nan kept silent. If she answered, she would be a fool.

Zhao Chuxi seemed to feel bored and waved his hands helplessly.

"You are such a boring person."

Qi An Nan ignored it. It was interesting that he was just lying on the bed now, and it was not certain that he would have a good ending.

Her eyebrows knitted slightly, and her nose trembled under the veil, as if she didn't like the smell in the room.

"Your Highness, what should we do with those two people?"

"Deal with it? Why do you want to deal with it?"

Zhao Chuxi tilted his head slightly and looked at Qi Annan with interest.

Qi An Nan was puzzled, but did not express it and continued to remain silent.

Zhao Chuxi sighed slightly, his tone full of disappointment.

"You...never mind, I'm just looking for trouble."

Zhao Chuxi knew what kind of personality Qi Annan had, and he obviously wouldn't support him, so he just kept talking to himself.

"Since these two disobedient dogs have come to my door, I will have some fun with them."

Hearing this, Qi An Nan would not refute Zhao Chuxi's decision, but still reminded him,

"Your Highness, the Qin and Yu families have already developed ulterior motives. Will this lead to more harm than good?"

Zhao Chuxi waved his hand, walked to the tea couch and sat down. He picked up the cake on the table and was about to put it in his mouth. Then he looked at Qi Annan and asked,

"Do you want to eat?"

Qi An Nan glanced at the blood stains still on Zhao Chuxi's fingers with his cold eyes, and said nothing.

Zhao Chuxi shrugged and said while eating cakes,

"The magic skills were originally used to deal with the Hundred Families. They just stretched their hands a little too far and wanted to control the royal family. That's nothing. When the time comes, we will just chop off the outstretched hands."

Zhao Chuxi said casually, his mouth full of the leftovers of the pastry, and he even licked his fingers with satisfaction.

"This tribute cake from the south is really good, don't you want some?"

Qi Annan tilted his head slightly and reminded again,

"Because of what happened last time, Your Highness has already been suspected. If you get involved again, it might be inappropriate."

Zhao Chuxi rubbed his hands on his clothes, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he looked towards the north.

"Father will understand me. Hundreds of factions have ruled their own territories. In Qiuzhou, Mocheng, Yanshan, the Confucian, Mohist and Taoist factions have long surpassed the royal family."

"The Legalists have been entrenched in the outskirts of the Wilderness, and have long been colluding with the remnants of the previous dynasty."

"The Yin-Yang family is trying to control the royal family, and the military family is at its peak in the army."

"The farmers have long been closed to the world, but the common people call them saints, and there are countless folk schools of thought."

"A hundred families can exist but not prosper! I will become the first one in the history."

Zhao Chuxi spoke passionately, but Qi Annan did not react at all and just stood there.

Zhao Chuxi was not annoyed. It was because of Qi Annan's personality that he was willing to tell her everything without reservation.

The emperor is indeed a lonely man, but as long as one is a human being, it is not easy to truly be alone.

Everyone needs to vent their emotions.

This was the case with the cold body of the woman on the bed, and also with Qi An Nan.

Zhao Chuxi gradually put away his casual attitude as if he was treating a friend, slowly stood up, and walked out of the house, his voice was cold and unquestionable,

"Clean it up and don't dirty my yard."

……

Saint Street.

Baijia Inn was specially renovated for this summit.

Li Ling'er was dressed in red with a bright silver spear hanging behind her waist.

"Dong dong dong."

She knocked on the door in front of her.

After waiting for a few breaths, the door opened.

Li Ling'er paused for a moment and then went into the house.

Inside the house, Shan Yuan, wearing a Taoist robe, sat quietly by the window.

Seeing Li Ling'er enter the room, he waved his robe and the oil lamps in the room lit up one after another.

"Ling'er, long time no see." Shanyuan's eyes were gentle and there was a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.

"Why fake your death?!"

Li Ling'er frowned, her eyes were cold, and her hand had already reached for the spear behind her.

Shan Yuan noticed Li Ling'er's actions, and with a look of dejection in his eyes, he said self-deprecatingly,

"You all want me dead, don't you?"

"So, I granted your wish."

"But you are not dead!" Li Ling'er held the spear in her hand. The joints of her originally pink little hand turned slightly white.

Shan Yuan looked at the seat in the distance and said with a wry smile,

"Wouldn't you like to sit down and talk with your second brother?"

Li Ling'er did not move, staring at Shan Yuan vigilantly. She had almost no impression of her second brother who had been frail and sickly since childhood.

When she was a child, she was just envious, envious of her second brother for being able to stay with their mother all day long.

But she could only stay in the distant capital.

She wasn't actually that sad until her mother passed away.

She even resented her mother, who only loved her second brother and sent her to live in the Lu Mansion.

Li Linger looked coldly at the man who had taken away her mother's love and spoke lightly,

"What on earth do you want to say to me?"

Shan Yuan sighed slightly and looked out the window.

"Mother actually loves you very much. It's because of me that I had to send you to the Lu family."

"You called me here just to say this?"

After entering the room, Li Linger's expression changed for the first time.

Madam Lu, Zhang Hanrui, and Prince Yan had all said these things to her.

Even the usually naive eldest brother Li Ru would often mention his mother.

She couldn't say how she felt about her mother, who would only visit her in the capital once or twice a year.

But no matter what, she would not easily forgive the person who killed her mother.

Especially since this person is my mother's most beloved second brother.

"You want to ask about what happened back then." Shan Yuan seemed to see what Li Ling'er was thinking and said in a light tone.

Li Ling'er didn't say anything, but her meaning was self-evident.

Shan Yuan sighed slightly, his eyes as deep as the abyss, looking at Li Ling'er with a sad expression, and asked word by word,

"Ling'er, do you believe in my second brother?"
