Joy of Life: The melon-eating prince sees through Fan Xian's fake death

Chapter 65: The Princess Still Has Charm

Originally the Queen was a little angry because the Crown Prince was complacent about the little incident in Baoyue Tower. Little did she know that Li Chengze had been doing something behind her back and had secretly contacted Li Yunrui, who controlled the financial power of the inner treasury. If these two joined forces, the Crown Prince would definitely be the one who suffered!

But the queen didn't expect that Li Chengqian got the news before her:

"Have you planted spies around Li Chengze?"

"Isn't it the same for the Queen Mother?"

Li Chengqian said modestly.

The queen's serious expression finally eased a little, and she began to remind her own prince: "Since you have already known that Li Chengze has been communicating with the princess in private, why didn't you react? Do you know what you did in Kyoto recently if Li Chengze told Li Yunrui?"

"What will the princess think of you?"

Li Chengqian shrugged indifferently: "I'm not worried that Li Chengze will tell aunt about it. On the contrary, I think my second brother is still a little dull. If it were me, I would report the good news to aunt on the day when His Majesty grants the marriage."

The queen narrowed her eyes and said, "You are vicious."

"It seems that you have already made a plan. How do you deal with them?"

Ha ha.

Even more vicious.

Isn't it you?

Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and mice are born to dig holes.

Li Chengqian secretly complained that he could only be considered a disciple who had surpassed his teacher:

"Mother, what you said is wrong. My aunt and I are related by blood. How can we be against each other?"

The queen looked at the prince's honest and loyal face, and felt ashamed of herself. As expected of him, she was his offspring. The queen frowned: "You keep saying that we are related by blood, but why didn't you remember it when you were painting the beauty before?"

Li Chengqian's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, this old bitch was still worried that he had a secret crush on his aunt. Even after burning the Faceless Beauty Painting, he was still worried about her. It was all because the eldest princess was so beautiful and charming, and at this mature age she was still the most beautiful woman in Qing Kingdom.

As the emperor's woman, the queen understands men best and has to be on guard against her son's evil intentions.

Li Chengqian is good at playing dumb: "What beauty painting? Why can't I remember it? Oh, when Ruoruo entered the palace, I did have a secret crush on her and had someone in my heart, so I couldn't help but draw a few faceless beauties based on her."

The queen laughed and said, "Why didn't you tell me before?"

Li Chengqian pretended to blush: "It's not that we don't have an engagement. I'm embarrassed to say that it was a painting of Ruoruo. Now it's different. Ruoruo and I are already engaged. There's no need for a painting. We can see each other every day."

The prince laughed off the final handle, and from then on the Queen posed no threat to him anymore. Although it was his mother Li Chengqian who had to be on guard, he did not have to be afraid of being harmed by this kind of woman who was used as a gun and eventually caused the destruction of her entire family. He was only afraid of being betrayed by stupid teammates.

The queen looked impatient as she found that the prince and she were no longer close friends and their feelings for each other had faded.

Li Chengqian added, "My mother just asked me how to deal with my second brother's close relationship with my aunt. I just think that I should just follow your orders. I will do whatever your majesty wants me to do. Since this is a test from your majesty, I will do it."

"You are smart. Don't forget how your aunt was driven out of Kyoto!" The Queen's expression softened. "Before she returns to the capital, don't keep in touch with Fan Xian, otherwise His Majesty will misunderstand that you are trying to reach out to the Overwatch Council."

"Mother is too worried."

When Li Chengqian interacted with Fan Xian, he was very careful about his degree: "Fan Xian is just a chess piece of your majesty. He and I are both working for your majesty. I am just taking advantage of his situation to get his help. Even though I am the crown prince, I never dare to overstep my boundaries."

"This is the difference between me and my aunt. Please rest assured, mother. I will be able to act properly."

The queen nodded with satisfaction and waved her jade hand gently.

Li Chengqian mistakenly thought that he was asked to leave:

"I'll take my leave." "You can go if you want. I want you to return the wine glass."

"."

·····
Not only did Li Chengqian learn before the Queen that the Second Prince had written a letter to the Eldest Princess, he even knew the contents of the letter clearly. This was a spy he had planted next to Li Chengze, and Fan Wujiu had played a role.

But even without him, Li Chengqian had the ability to know the second prince's every move.

Li Chengze's alliance with the eldest princess was inevitable in response to the situation. After all, Li Yunrui and Li Chengqian had not yet had an affair, and alliances that had never slept with each other were always prone to fall apart. Moreover, her blood feud with Fan Xian meant that she was destined to be an enemy of the prince in the future.

Li Chengqian did not sit still and wait for death, but immediately told Fan Xian the news.

Fan Mansion.

The dinner table.

After receiving the news, Fan Xian and Fan Jian had a frank discussion about the matter, because it involved not only Fan Xian, or the future Crown Princess Fan Ruoruo, but the entire Fan family, and their future political stance and even sides.
Fan Ruoruo frowned and lost her appetite. When she heard that the Crown Prince was in trouble, she was very distressed: "What should I do now? If the Second Prince and the Princess team up to harm the Crown Prince in the future, it will definitely make it difficult for him to act, right?"

Fan Xian nodded: "The lips and teeth are interdependent. The eldest princess and I are enemies. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is at a disadvantage because of the two of them, I and our Fan family will be implicated. In other words, she is coming for me."

Aunt Liu supported her head with her brows furrowed. The men were talking about important matters and she couldn't get a word in.

Fan Jian closed his eyes and thought, as if he was thinking about an important question.

Fan Ruoruo's eyes turned and she suggested:
"If the princess really returns to the capital and joins forces with the second prince, and we have to take sides to balance the situation in the court, the simplest way is for me to marry the crown prince. If the daughter of the Fan family becomes the crown princess, isn't that the best way to show our support?"

Fan Xian rolled his eyes: "You are using your power for personal gain."

Fan Ruoruo pouted in dissatisfaction: "This is called killing two birds with one stone!"

Aunt Liu smiled helplessly and shook her head. This girl...
Fan Jian slowly opened his eyes and said faintly, "That's not right. Even if the Crown Prince wanted to fight with the Second Prince, why did he choose my Fan family instead of continuing to rely on the power of the Princess? What happened?"

Fan Ruoruo and Aunt Liu were completely confused.

Only Fan Xian broke out in a cold sweat.

He also noticed the changes in the royal family.

In the end what happened?
·······
Xinyang.

Princess House.

The huge garden is full of flowers of all colors. This is not only due to Xinyang's good climate, but also because the owner here has spent a lot of manpower and material resources and spent a lot of money to cultivate this garden of flowers.

Even under the fertile soil, there are unknown fertilizers buried.
She used to be a maid in the palace, but now she is the head servant in the mansion.

She was carrying an urgent secret letter and walked quickly into the mansion with her head lowered.

This bedroom can only be entered by the owner, but now a female painter has been invited to paint.

The eldest princess, wearing a black veil and with long hair, came close to the painter and asked her to draw the image she had in mind. As she bent her back, her round breasts under the thin silk dress were about to emerge, and her every frown and smile revealed her feminine charm.

That is a kind of sexiness and charm that is inherent in her bones.

The maid came to her and glanced at the painter.

"It doesn't matter."

The princess casually extended her jade hand and rubbed her white forehead. She didn't care about the strangers around her and asked the maid to open the letter and read it: "I feel a little unwell. Can you read it for me? Which old friend in Kyoto wrote this letter to me?"
