I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!

Faced with the eager young men who surrounded him, Qin Li had no reason to refuse.

Although these clueless extras are easily fooled by the protagonist, it's not their fault.

It is believed that under his tutelage and bribery, the ordinary people can complete the identity transformation.

From then on, they became the villain's lackeys, working together to target the protagonist.

Looking at Su Chen again, the protagonist was looking down, his pupils dilated, staring at his hands in disbelief.

He couldn't understand why he, as the protagonist, had lost!

This is neither scientific nor logical.

No, I must win this time!

Having made up his mind, Su Chen raised his head and said, "Let's bet again!"

In the center of the crowd, Qin Li said with a contemptuous look, "You've lost everything, what do you have left to bet with me?"

"Who said I've lost everything? I... I have money!"

Su Chen stammered, "I have plenty of money at home. I'll send someone back to get it right now."

Su Chen has won a lot of money these days, and he has saved it all.

Even without using that money, the Marquis's mansion still has savings.

Upon hearing this, Wei Hongying, who was happily stuffing money into a sack, couldn't help but scold Su Chen, "That's enough."

"A little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful to your health!"

"General Su sacrificed his life for the country, and now you're the only one left in the Marquis's mansion. Instead of thinking about revitalizing the mansion, you've become addicted to gambling?"

"To put it bluntly, you're a leopard can't change its spots!"

"Sister Hongying, I...I..."

After being reprimanded by Wei Hongying, Su Chen really wanted to tell her the truth.

He's not someone who can't change his ways.

He gambled for two reasons: first, to lull the world into thinking he was still the same纨绔子弟 (spoiled brat) he used to be; and second, to revitalize the Marquis's mansion.

I never saw him win so much money by setting up schemes in so many days.

"Go home and reflect on your actions!"

Wei Hongying pointed outside and cursed, displaying the demeanor of an elder.

Even if Su Chen was unwilling and wanted to win the money back,

However, faced with Wei Hongying's anger, he had no choice but to temporarily avoid confrontation.

We can't let some money ruin our relationship with Wei Hongying.

If that were the case, it would be a huge waste of money.

Thinking of this, Su Chen reluctantly bowed and cupped his hands to Wei Hongying, "I will keep Sister Hongying's earnest teachings in mind. Farewell."

After saying that, Su Chen slunk away from the private room.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but turn back and scrutinize Qin Li a few times.

The Seventh Prince Qin Feng, right? He'll remember this!

The road ahead is long, let's wait and see.

He simply refused to believe that he, the protagonist, couldn't defeat a useless prince.

At this very moment, in the Seventh Prince's residence, Qin Feng, who was confined to the residence by the Xuan Emperor, was sitting in the study writing a letter.

Qin Li is no good. He needs to write several more letters to Wei Hongying, telling her to stay away from Qin Li.

Although Wei Hongying didn't understand him, he wasn't angry, because he knew that one day, Wei Hongying would understand him.

Suddenly, Qin Feng sneezed several times in a row, knocking the letter off its page.

"That's strange, why did I suddenly sneeze? What did I do to deserve this?"

Rubbing his nose, Qin Feng was completely baffled. He then bent down to pick up the letter from the ground and continued writing...

……

After being lectured by Wei Hongying, Su Chen slunk away.

Qin Li made up an excuse and left Tianxiang Tower with Wei Hongying.

Seeing the bulging sack on Wei Hongying's back, Qin Li chuckled and asked, "Is it heavy? Should I carry it?"

Wei Hongying waved her hand casually and said happily, "No need, it's not heavy at all. The First Prince really underestimates me."

She was, after all, a sixth-rank martial arts master. Not to mention a mere twenty-odd pounds, even a hundred pounds, she could easily lift it with one hand.

On the other hand, the eldest prince, Qin Li, was born into a life of luxury and never lifted anything heavy.

Therefore, it's better for her to carry it.

Looking at this silly girl, Qin Li exclaimed that the protagonist, Qin Feng, was very lucky.

By marrying Wei Hongying, Qin Feng has truly struck gold.

Unfortunately, he's going to steal her away.

Let him, the villain, enjoy this good fortune.

Hehehe!

"By the way, I utterly crushed Su Chen today. I hope nothing bad will happen, considering General Su just died for his country..."

That being said, if Wei Hongying hadn't stopped him today, he would have insisted on continuing the gamble with Su Chen and winning back all the bitter tea seeds for Su Chen.

Su Chen, that little bastard, is far more despicable than Qin Feng, that bastard.

Ideally, Su Chen should be forced to win every last penny, so that the protagonist can truly experience the harsh realities of society.

When the protagonist runs out of money, things become difficult, making things easier for the villain, Qin Li.

"It's alright."

Wei Hongying waved her hand, saying with a look of disappointment, "That kid is a leopard can't change its spots. The entire Marquis of Dingyuan's family is full of loyal and heroic people, but he's good for neither literature nor martial arts. He's a disgrace to the Marquis's family!"

"If I were his older sister, I'd spank him until his bottom was a bloody mess."

"Today, let's teach him a lesson and make him remember it!"

"Your Highness, you have done a good deed. General Su's spirit in heaven will thank you."

Qin Li nodded and said, "I know very little about Su Chen. Why don't you talk to me properly, Miss Wei? Maybe I can help him get back on the right path."

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle!

He already understands the first protagonist, Qin Feng, very well; Qin Feng can't escape his grasp.

The second protagonist, Su Chen, is someone Qin Li has never heard of before. Qin Li wants to know everything about him.

Otherwise, there's a high chance of things going wrong.

Since she had nothing better to do, Wei Hongying told Qin Li everything she knew without reservation.

……

By the time Wei Hongying returned to the Wei residence, it was already very late.

She was very happy with her wonderful experience today.

After returning home, she couldn't help but pull aside Madam Wei and her sisters-in-law to share the story.

Wei Hongying said excitedly, "Mother, sisters-in-law, the eldest prince Qin Li is not at all what you say. You have all misunderstood him. I think he and Qin Feng are not on the same level at all. I really don't know why there is such a big difference between them, since they are both princes."

"Yes, that's true."

Lady Wei nodded and said, "Qin Feng is indeed far inferior to the First Prince. Why don't I go to the palace another day, swallow my pride, and ask His Majesty to annul your engagement with Qin Feng and let you remarry the First Prince?"

"what?"

Wei Hongying was completely stunned and said, "Mother, isn't this a bit inappropriate? She can remarry?"

As they were talking, Wei Hongying couldn't help but lower her head shyly.

Lady Wei laughed in anger, "Why can't I remarry? Our Wei family is full of loyal and righteous people, and we are devoted to the Great Zhou. I believe His Majesty will agree to this small request."

Even if Wei Hongying was stupid, she could tell at this moment that Madam Wei was speaking in anger and was being sarcastic.

She lightly stamped her foot. "Mother, what are you saying? I never said I wanted to remarry."

Madam Wei rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "No? I bet you're itching to remarry the Crown Prince right now. I really don't know how I could have given birth to such a good-for-nothing daughter."

Seeing that Madam Wei was really angry, her sisters-in-law quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

He gestured to Wei Hongying with his eyes to leave quickly so as not to anger his mother.

Wei Hongying wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say, so she pursed her lips and quickly left.

After the people left, Madam Wei was still furious. After sitting down, she said to the women, "It was just a short trip, but I really don't know what kind of bewitching potion Qin Li gave Hongying to make her so devoted to him."

"It seems I need to find an opportunity to have a proper talk with this eldest prince..."

"Mother, please think it over!"
