Chapter 94: Undressing the Prince

Not only was his attitude cold, but his words were also mean.

A surge of anger suddenly arose in Liu Ruxu's heart, and she suppressed it.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince! Zhaoyang is your imperial brother after all. Even though he is not related to you by blood, he is the king of Zhaoyang appointed by the emperor and one of his ministers. Why do you speak so viciously?"

"Have you read all the sages' books you have learned since you were a child in vain?"

She looked like a loving mother and a filial son. If Su Zhaoyang had been present, he might have been moved to tears.

Li Yunxing glanced at her indifferently and curled his lips contemptuously.

Liu Ruxu came suddenly today, she must have some agenda.

Therefore, Li Yunxing also deliberately refused to say anything and left Liu Ruxu hanging there.

He quietly raised his eyelids and glanced at Liu Ruxu. He saw that her cheeks were red and her fists were clenched. She was obviously very angry.

Jin Xi wiped his sweat secretly, why is this prince so calm today?

"I just came to see the emperor today. I didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince and I, the Queen Mother, would be so similar."

She forced a smile on her face and tried to maintain a dignified manner.

"Reporting to my mother, my son and I are busy with state affairs every day, and are indeed a little tired. However, if the empress does it herself, I will be able to relax seven or eight points."

Li Yunxing's words were unclear, but how could Liu Ruxu not know what he meant? She was so angry that her whole body trembled, and she wanted to tear his disgusting face to pieces!

"His Royal Highness the Prince is really good at joking." Liu Ruxu tried her best to keep calm.

"That's right, I heard that the prince hasn't bought any new clothes for three months. It's getting hot today. If he wears the clothes from previous years, I'm afraid it will damage the prince's face."

"So, I brought some of the best materials to the prince to save him the trouble."

She looked at Li Yunxing with a smile, her eyes full of calculations.

Li Yunxing snorted coldly, "The Queen is really interested."

Liu Ruxu sneered in her heart, but still had a gentle smile on her face, "If His Highness the Crown Prince likes it, feel free to choose."

Then he ordered his men to bring up several pieces of cloth. Even without looking at it, Li Yunxing knew that these were high-quality silks, and I am afraid that there were not so many in the palace.

"This is a brocade purchased by my brother Liu Chen from Jiaozhou. The materials used are mainly silk and cotton yarn. It requires fifteen processes to make. It is an extremely rare treasure."

Li Yunxing touched the material with his hands. It was all hand-embroidered with auspicious animal patterns. It was indeed exquisite.

"This is the Shu cloth that General Yizhou presented to your father before. I am afraid of the heat, so the emperor was considerate and rewarded this material to me. But I can't use it all. There is still more material, it is enough."

Let’s make another summer shirt for the prince.”

Liu Ruxu was very familiar with these fabrics and explained them one by one to Li Yunxing like they were presenting treasures.

Is this the sun rising in the west?

Li Yunxing never believed that she had such good intentions. He had just punished Su Zhaoyang severely a few days ago. Liu Ruxu hated him and it was too late, so how could she specially send him fabrics to make clothes?

After observing for a while, Li Yunxing did not speak.

On the contrary, Liu Ruxu hurriedly asked, "Is there anyone you like, Your Highness?"

Li Yunxing nodded calmly, "It's very good. They are all made of precious materials."

When Liu Ruxu saw this, she felt relieved.

"In that case, why not let my royal tailor measure the prince's size first. Over the past few months, I don't know how much the prince's waistline has increased."

After saying that, she waved her hand behind her, and a male tailor came forward holding a mahogany tailoring ruler.

"Your Highness, please raise your arms straight and let me measure your size."

Li Yunxing folded his arms and had no intention of cooperating. It turned out that Liu Ruxu came here for this purpose.

The tailor held the ruler with some embarrassment and looked up at Li Yunxing. Seeing that the other party didn't pay attention to him, he turned back to Queen Liu.

Liu Ruxu could only smile awkwardly, "Your Highness, what's going on? It's just a measurement. Could it be that I will harm you?"

Li Yunxing smiled, his eyes full of contempt.

"I don't like others to get close to me, so why not let Jinxi do the measurements for me?"

How could Liu Ruxu let go of this opportunity and directly rejected Li Yunxing's proposal.

"This little eunuch is clumsy. If the size is off, this fine fabric will be wasted."

"It still has to be measured by a tailor to get the correct size."

This confirmed Li Yunxing's conjecture.

Last night he returned to the East Palace and only changed out of his bloody clothes.

The Liu family's informants must have known that he had been to the General's Mansion yesterday and returned to the East Palace with injuries all over his body.

It was a lie to say that she wanted to make new clothes for him, but it was true that she wanted to find out whether he was really injured.

If the prince of the prison country is injured, it will be a major event for the whole country.

Not only will all the maids and eunuchs in the East Palace be implicated, but the General's Mansion will also be punished. For the Liu family, this is undoubtedly an opportunity to severely damage Li Yunxing's power.

Therefore, Liu Ruxu was worried that if his wound was mostly healed, he would not be able to let the prince take off his clothes in public to prove his true identity, so she thought of a tailor-made way to come and find out the truth.

Unfortunately, Li Yunxing had no pain all over his body, and even the blood stains were not his.

Even so, he still wanted to put on a good show with Liu Ruxu and let her try the feeling of trying to draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain.

"Then later, I will ask the tailor in the East Palace to measure the size and then send it to the Queen. This should be fine, right?"

The more Li Yunxing tried to cover up, the more Liu Ruxu felt that she had grasped the situation.

"No need to go to such trouble, I will measure it today. Your Highness, please don't refuse. It is all the Queen Mother's wish."

She looked so sincere, if Li Yunxing hadn't seen the cunning look in her eyes, he would have almost believed that she was real.

"In that case, why don't you, Queen Mother, measure me personally?"

Liu Ruxu's expression changed. She was the queen, how could she do it herself?

What's more, this skin-to-skin relationship, Li Yunxing is also a master who eats people without spitting out their bones.

"I'm not good at this, so why don't we let the tailor do it?" Liu Ruxu wanted to refuse.

Li Yunxing changed his attitude instantly, his expression was as cold as an iceberg, and the corners of his brows and eyes revealed a sense of coldness, arrogance and alienation.

"Since the Queen refuses, then forget it." His tone was firm.

He was determined to embarrass her.

"No!" Liu Ruxu was unwilling to miss the opportunity like this.

Then he glared at him angrily, and finally reluctantly took the wooden ruler from the tailor's hand.

"You guys stand down," she ordered.

The tailor and several maids immediately turned around and left the entire room to them.

Liu Ruxu stepped forward, stood on the left side of Li Yunxing, and stretched out her hand to widen his sleeves.

Li Yunxing frowned slightly and stared at her coldly.
