Chen Zhi clenched his teeth tightly and was surging with anger. His body was trembling slightly, and the veins on his hands that were tightly gripping the handle of the knife were exposed, and he was obviously in extreme anger.
"Don't you dare? If you don't dare, just get out! Take five steps back from me and step down the steps. If you dare to step on the steps, you will be killed without mercy!"
Li Chen looked at Chen Zhi's dark face and slowly backed away in humiliation. He didn't stop until he got down the steps. He sneered, turned around and entered the hall.
Staring at Li Chen's back, the hatred surging in Chen Zhi's chest almost drove him crazy.
"Li Chen, just wait for me. When the chief minister and the queen's plan comes to fruition, I want you to die without a burial place!"
Back in the palace, Li Chen saw Queen Zhao Qinglan carefully comforting Zhao Rui, who was crying in her arms.
Although Zhao Qinglan was also untouched, he could tell what had happened just by looking at Zhao Rui's appearance and the bright red color on the bed.
As a woman, she can best relate to it.
"Prince, you are so presumptuous!"
Seeing Li Chen come in, Zhao Qinglan scolded him.
Li Chen smiled faintly, stared at Zhao Qinglan and said playfully: "Queen, why are you so presumptuous?"
For some reason, Zhao Qinglan always felt that the way Li Chen looked at him was greedy, not at all like the timid and timid person he used to be.
"You treat Rui'er like this and you still want to make excuses?" Zhao Qinglan said angrily.
"Empress, Zhao Rui is the crown prince's concubine, I am the crown prince, and she is my concubine. It is natural for me to have a love affair with her. How can I be sophistical and presumptuous?"
Li Chen chuckled lightly, stepped forward to the bed, and looked down at the two women sitting and lying on the bed.
The candlelight was dim, and Zhao Qinglan looked extremely beautiful in this slightly dim bedroom.
That kind of motherly demeanor is unique in the world, and there is no other.
Breathing gradually became heavier, Li Chen chuckled, leaned over and said: "My father made my mother the queen, but I know that this is just a political deal. My father is old and cannot fully control the government. In order to stabilize the situation,
Living in the imperial court, your father Zhao Xuanji became the head of the state, and the empress is still a virgin. Can I be wrong?"
Li Chen's words about tigers and wolves made Zhao Qinglan's eyes widen.
She looked at Li Chen in disbelief, as if meeting him for the first time.
"You, you rebellious son, how could you say such filthy words!?"
Shocked, embarrassed and angry to the extreme, Zhao Qinglan raised her hand to slap Zhao Yun.
Li Chen smiled coldly, raised his hand and grabbed Zhao Qinglan's wrist.
Gently stroking the delicate skin on the inner side of the Queen's wrist with his fingers, Li Chen said softly: "The Queen is so angry and angry. Is it because her son-in-law said something that hurts her?"
Zhao Qinglan exclaimed, feeling ashamed and angry, she opened her mouth to scold him.
"The Queen."
Li Chen said with an extremely calm face: "Outside, your Zhao family's lackey Chen Zhi and a group of people are all there. Does the Queen want them all to see this scene?"
Before he finished speaking, Li Chen had already pulled up Zhao Qinglan and hugged her into his arms.
The strong masculine aura surrounded her. Zhao Qinglan had never experienced anything like this before, and she was even more frightened by Li Chen's boldness and felt a little overwhelmed.
"This, this is going to cost you your head, are you crazy?" Zhao Qinglan gritted his teeth.
"Death under the peonies, being a ghost is also romantic."
Li Chen gently sniffed the hair between the Queen's ears and temples and murmured: "Is the Queen also willing to accompany me to death?"
Such close contact and friction made Zhao Qinglan panic.
She subconsciously wanted to retreat and escape, but her delicate waist was firmly held in Li Chen's arms.
"Including Zhao Xuanji, all of you are waiting for the death of the emperor. Once the emperor dies, you will seize power and usurp the throne, abolish this palace, and support your own puppets."
"But if at this time, there is news that the empress and me are messing up the palace, the Zhao family's decades-long plan will be completely ruined. By then, the whole world will want to kill the Zhao family and then kill them all."
Li Chen smiled evilly and said: "Queen, are you willing to take risks, or am I willing to take risks?"
There was a hint of panic in Zhao Qinglan's eyes.
Li Chen's words tightly controlled the fate of the Zhao family.
She didn't expect that the prince, who was usually such a waste, could be so resourceful.
At this time, Li Chen's big hand had already reached Zhao Qinglan's waist.
Zhao Qinglan didn't know what to do.
She never imagined that she was here to save Zhao Rui, but in the end she also ended up in trouble.
Looking at Zhao Rui, who was lying on the bed dumbfounded, Li Chen felt the evil fire in his heart almost burning throughout his body.
"Tonight, why don't you two go to heaven together with me?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Zhao Rui and Zhao Qinglan changed dramatically.
At this time, there was a loud noise outside, followed by the eunuch singing loudly.
"The Queen, Your Highness, the Emperor is vomiting blood and the situation is critical. Please return to the palace as soon as possible!"
The sudden sound coming from outside the palace changed the atmosphere in the palace.
Zhao Qinglan didn't know where he got the strength to push Li Chen away, gasping for air.
"Tonight, I won't argue with you about what happened tonight, but there will never be a next time. If you take advantage of it again, I will never let you go!"
After Zhao Qinglan said these words, he ran away.
"Queen."
Li Chen stopped Zhao Qinglan, "The clothes are scattered."
Zhao Qinglan looked down at her messy clothes, and her fair and tender body was vaguely exposed. She was so embarrassed that she quickly arranged her clothes, and then hurried away with a cold face.
"You stay here and wait for me to come back."
Li Chen said something to Zhao Rui, who had been shocked for a long time, turned around and left.
The moment she walked out of the palace, Zhao Qinglan had already restored her mother's status as a queen and the magnanimity she should have.
"Go back to the palace."
Saying two words coldly, the surrounding guards and maids knelt on the ground. Zhao Qinglan walked quickly to Fenghu. A young eunuch immediately knelt on the ground and let Zhao Qinglan step on Fenghu's back.
After Zhao Qinglan got on the sedan chair and was driven out, the little eunuch was about to get up when a big foot stepped on him and pushed him to the ground again.
"How dare you! How dare you go to Queen Fenghu!"
Chen Zhi, who had been staring at Li Chen, immediately shouted as if he had grasped something.
Li Chen stepped on Feng Chu with one foot and stepped on the little eunuch's back with the other foot. He turned to look at Chen Zhi coldly and said: "My father is seriously ill. I must go with the queen to the hospital immediately."
Holy lord, if you delay something important, how many heads do you have enough to chop off?"
Zhao Qinglan's impatient voice came from Fengxu.
"Let's go back to the palace first. We can't delay important matters."
Chen Zhi was so full of anger that he couldn't express it, and he almost suffered internal injuries and vomited blood.
At this time, Li Chen had already gotten into Fenghu.
Chen Zhi gritted his teeth, and the anger and hatred in his eyes almost burst out. Finally, he squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Get off and go back to the palace!"
In Fengxun, the queen's living room is naturally extremely spacious. It can accommodate not only two people, but also a few more.
But Li Chen just sat down next to Zhao Qinglan.
"Just now, Queen Xie came to the rescue." Li Chen said with a smile.
Zhao Qinglan looked at Li Chen coldly and said: "I am not here for you. Don't be sentimental. I am just afraid of delaying important events."
"I know, I know."
Li Chen's tone was like coaxing a little girl, and he raised his hand and naturally wrapped his arms around Zhao Qinglan's waist.
Zhao Qinglan felt as if she had been electrocuted. She could not have imagined that Li Chen would dare to be so presumptuous in Fenghu, with a large number of Yulin guards and palace maids outside.
"You are presumptuous!"
Zhao Qinglan became angry and scolded.
"Whether or not I am unbridled, doesn't the queen know?"
Li Chen leaned against Zhao Qinglan's ear and whispered.
Feeling the hot breath from Li Chen's mouth making her whole body uncomfortable, Zhao Qinglan stood up and wanted to stay away from Li Chen.
But as soon as she got up, Li Chen took the opportunity to pull her into his arms.
