Your Majesty, this outer room is painting a pie for you again!

Chapter 526 Take Control

After leaving the imperial study, Zhao Rui returned to the residence arranged for him in the palace with puffy eyes, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Li Yanji is always like this. He never treats others as human beings and even uses this as an excuse to plot against others, but... can this really succeed?

Zhao Rui took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly.

After what happened, Zhao Rui knew that there was no turning back for them.

What’s more, the most important thing now is that Li Yanji has already decided to kill them.

He used Li Rushi to threaten himself, which Zhao Rui could not tolerate.

Originally, Zhao Rui didn't take these things seriously, but now after communicating with Li Rushi, Zhao Rui couldn't just ignore it.

And Li Rushi is innocent.

No matter what happened, Li Rushi is innocent.

If Zhao Rui doesn't even care about Li Rushi, then Zhao Rui himself will look down on himself.

And now it has come to a point where the fight ends in death, so why should Zhao Rui care so much?
"It seems...I won't stay in this palace for long."

A person like Li Yanji, once he has decided what to do, will definitely not allow himself to destroy it, and this is also a good thing, so Li Yanji will definitely take the opportunity to settle everything.

Thinking of this, Zhao Rui decided to make all preparations before leaving.

And sure enough, the next day, Li Yanji asked Zhao Rui to leave the palace.

As for the reason, I am too lazy to give one.

But Zhao Rui didn't care about it, and even made a promise in front of the emperor before leaving the palace.

After arriving at Duke Dingguo's Mansion, when Fu Yubai and Su Jiao saw Zhao Rui returning, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Fu Yubai seemed to have guessed something, and immediately asked, "What happened?"

But Zhao Rui just smiled slightly when he heard this.

"Never."

But if nothing happened, why would Zhao Rui come back?
Su Jiao didn't believe it.

Su Jiao tilted her head and looked at Zhao Rui. She seemed to have thought of something and asked, "What happened?"

Looking at this situation, it seems like something is going to happen.

Because at this moment, Zhao Rui's eyes showed a look of excitement.

If it was just a small matter, Zhao Rui wouldn't have done this.

Moreover, Su Jiao would never doubt Zhao Rui's thoughts. After all, the national hatred and family feuds were right in front of him. If Zhao Rui could still betray because of this, then it could only be said that he was hopeless.

But Su Jiao thinks this is unlikely.

And it was precisely because of this that Su Jiao pondered for a while before continuing to ask: "Could it be that she is finally thinking of taking action against us?"

After all, Zhao Rui was in the palace, and the first person Li Yanji came into contact with was Zhao Rui. The fact that he was a man without brains yet liked to play tricks on others explained everything.

Simply put, Li Yanji wanted to use Zhao Rui to plot against them.

Although all this was Su Jiao's guess, based on Su Jiao's understanding of Li Yanji, she thought that this matter was almost true.

When Fu Yubai heard this, he couldn't help but frown and look at Zhao Rui.

It seems that Fu Yubai doesn't really believe it.

After hearing what Su Jiao said, Zhao Rui immediately gave Su Jiao a thumbs up.

"Miss Su is really amazing."

"It really is?"

Li Yanji was really surprised at this time. After all, in Fu Yubai's opinion, the situation shouldn't be like this, and let's not talk about other things, just based on Zhao Rui's relationship with them, Li Yanji shouldn't trust him so blindly, right?

What on earth is Li Yanji thinking?

For a moment, both Su Jiao and Fu Yubai were dumbfounded.

Then the two of them looked at Zhao Rui with curiosity.

"Tell me, what is he going to do this time?"

To be honest, this is not just gossip for them, but they really want to know to what extent Li Yanji can commit suicide.

There is no need to mention the previous words, but the situation is obviously very tense now. If he is a smart person, he will never choose to take action at this time. But Li Yanji is obviously not an ordinary person, so he actually arranged for Zhao Rui to do the job.

Zhao Rui!
That's their man!

Does Li Yanji have any brains at all?

Su Jiao was too tired to even complain at this time.

Even Fu Yubai was silent for a while at this time, and then continued to speak: "I... never knew that she had such thoughts in her mind."

It's just weird.

It's even so strange that it feels unreal.

Zhao Rui just smiled coldly, and did not hide anything from the two of them. He told them what Li Yanji forced him to do and his intentions.

After hearing these words, the two people didn't know what to do for a moment.

"So... strictly speaking, this Li Yanji wants to use the Seventh Princess to force you to compromise, and then use you for his own purposes?"

Although the language was a bit confusing, Su Jiao thought about it carefully and felt that she had not understood it wrong.

Zhao Rui also smiled and nodded.

But in that smile, there is more coldness.

Just because Li Yanji's approach may work for others, but it is doomed to fail if it encounters them.

After all, they all hated and were dissatisfied with Li Yanji.

This is enough to prove that Li Yanji's biggest probability is to lose everything in this matter.

For a moment, Fu Yubai and Su Jiao felt that everything about this man was so ridiculous.

After looking at each other, Su Jiao sighed, then looked at Zhao Rui and said, "Then what? His purpose can't be so simple. I don't believe he would let it go so easily."

Zhao Rui looked at Su Jiao with appreciation.

You see, Su Jiao is smart and can see through the essence of this matter.

Zhao Rui narrowed his eyes slightly, laughed, and said, "He wants me to choose, to choose my identity and position."

"And I naturally chose to believe him unconditionally. Then... he asked me to leave the palace and come to you, under the pretext of building a relationship with you, and obey his orders."

After hearing these words, Su Jiao and Fu Yubai couldn't help but remain silent for a while.

Even the two of them couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

"He's really a fantastic guy."

After Su Jiao finished sighing, she looked at Zhao Rui again.

"What about your choice?"

Zhao Rui was stunned when he heard this.
