Xin Qiwu's expression was a little awkward for a moment and he said, "No, no..."

However, before he could finish, he heard Li Chengze say: "If you don't like staying with the prince, then come to me..."

"Pfft!"

As soon as Li Chengze finished speaking, Li Chengyuan couldn't help laughing out loud.

Lin Wan'er and Fan Xian beside him couldn't help laughing.

Li Chengze turned around in surprise.

"Third brother, are you laughing too?"

"No!" Li Chengyuan replied with a suppressed smile, "Second brother, I really didn't want to laugh, but...this Lord Xin you won over is now mine too!"

“???” Li Chengze suddenly turned his head again and looked at Xin Qiwu with a confused look on his face.

Xin Qiwu smiled awkwardly and said, "Second Prince, I wanted to say this just now, but you didn't let me!"

Li Chengze turned his head and looked at Li Chengyuan again. Finally, he couldn't help but gave him a thumbs up and said through gritted teeth: "Third brother, what a good trick!"

Li Chengyuan smiled and said, "Second brother, I've already said it, I don't have any other means, it's nothing more than the word 'sincerity'!

But I admire my second brother. He has the nerve to try to win people over when he can't even remember their names.

"You've managed to get to where you are today by trying to win people over through deception. I guess I still need to learn a lot from my second brother! Poof!"

After Li Chengyuan finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing again.

Wan'er pursed her lips, her eyes full of Li Chengyuan. It was the first time she saw Li Chengyuan so "naughty"!

Fan Xian also laughed out loud, but there seemed to be a hint of gloating in his smile.

Li Chengze also laughed.

I was just laughing out of anger!

After staring at Li Chengyuan for a while, he didn't say anything else and turned around. This time he really left!

......

After Li Chengze left, Li Chengyuan and the others stopped smiling.

Before Li Chengyuan could say anything, Xin Qiwu hurried over to express his loyalty, saying, "Your Highness, please understand. I didn't show any sign of being tempted just now!"

"Alright, alright!" Li Chengyuan laughed. "...I don't doubt you, why are you so anxious? We're all family, how can I not trust you?"

"Hehehe, thank you for your understanding, Your Highness!" Xin Qiwu smiled again, then asked in confusion, "Your Highness, this is just an ordinary dinner. How did it alarm you and the Second Prince?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengyuan said meaningfully, "You're wrong. Today's dinner is not ordinary!"

"Ah?" Fan Xian and Xin Qiwu were both shocked.

"What's the matter? Do you have anything to do at the dinner tonight?" Fan Xian asked hurriedly.

"Maybe!" Li Chengyuan nodded, then leaned close to Fan Xian and whispered, "I've received news that Zhuang Mohan might target you tonight!"

"Huh?" Fan Xian was stunned. "Targeting me? Why?"

Li Chengyuan shook his head and said, "There's no time to explain so much. Tell me the truth. If I asked you to write a poem on the spot, how many could you write in one breath?"

Fan Xian scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, to be honest, I'm not good at writing poetry, but I can copy it.

If we were to copy poems on the spot, even if we copied a hundred, it would be no problem!"

"copy?"

"Oh, don't worry, Your Highness. When I say I'm copying poems, I mean the poems in my head. To some extent, they can be considered original works!"

Li Chengyuan nodded. "That's fine then. Don't worry, I'll help you when the time comes. Think about it carefully after you enter the palace. I might need you to write a poem later!"

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Your Highness!" Fan Xian breathed a sigh of relief. With Li Chengyuan helping him, he felt confident.

After all, in terms of literature, he really admires Li Chengyuan.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go in first!"

As soon as Li Chengyuan finished speaking, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

When they turned around, they saw the prince coming.

Several people hurriedly bowed.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince!"

No matter what, etiquette should not be abolished in public.

The prince nodded. Seeing Wan'er's expression, he was a little surprised. When he saw Fan Xian, his eyes narrowed again. But when he saw Xin Qiwu, his eyes instantly turned cold again.

It can be said that the prince took one step and changed his eyes three times.

Then (Nod Zhao) he didn't say anything and just walked past everyone.

Watching the Crown Prince's departing back, Xin Qiwu wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered, "Your Highness, could it be that the Crown Prince is holding a grudge against me?"

Li Chengyuan shook his head and said, "Don't think too much, Lord Xin, remember, since you are mine, I will protect you.

As long as you don't make any mistakes, then no matter when, anyone who wants to target you will have to get past me first!

With my Highness here, no one can hurt you!"

Such reassuring words immediately made Xin Qiwu smile happily, and he thought to himself that he had followed the right person.

Fan Xian also smiled. He admired Li Chengyuan's sense of responsibility and commitment.

After talking for a while, they finally walked into the hall together.

Li Chengyuan and Lin Wan'er took the lead.

Fan Xian and Xin Qiwu followed behind.

On the way, Lin Wan'er quietly asked Li Chengyuan, "Who do you think would target Fan Xian and force him to recite poetry?"

On the way here, Li Chengyuan reminded Lin Wan'er that there were experts eavesdropping in the palace, so she should speak softly and be careful with her words.

"If only it were that simple!" Li Chengyuan sighed, then replied in an inaudible voice, "Wan'er, you know me. I wouldn't easily show hostility to someone unless it's absolutely necessary, but your mother has crossed my line many times!"

When Wan'er heard this, her pretty face turned pale.

She really understood Li Chengyuan and knew how kind-hearted he was.

It can be said that as long as Li Chengyuan's bottom line is not touched, he will not easily care about those trivial matters.

The fact that Li Chengyuan could say such "cruel" words shows how "egregious" her mother's crimes are!

P.S. Everyone, it's almost the New Year and I have a lot to do. I'll try to update as much as possible, and I'll definitely update a lot by the day after tomorrow at the latest! Thank you again for your strong support!

Chapter 144 The eldest princess wanted to "sell Wan'er", Li Chengyuan scolded Li Yunrui!

Inside the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests.

After Li Chengyuan came in, the ministers who had arrived early stood up and bowed to him.

Li Chengyuan walked forward with his head held high, not looking sideways.

Wan'er followed Li Chengyuan, feeling the respectful gazes from all around her. Even though she had long been accustomed to this, she still couldn't help but feel a little excited at this moment.

After all, the respect of a maid and the respect of a minister are two different concepts.

At this moment, Wan'er had an inexplicable fantasy in her heart. If he could really rule the world, how glorious would this moment be?

Wan'er felt inexplicably excited.

Li Chengyuan took Wan'er directly to the innermost part.

Originally there were only four seats here, but now with Li Chengyuan and Lin Wan'er, one seat was added on each side.

Li Chengyuan took a look and walked over to sit next to Li Chengze.

Wan'er came and sat down next to Li Yunrui.

Li Yunrui frowned when he saw Wan'er coming over, looking very unhappy.

"Why are you here?" Li Yunrui scolded in a low voice.

Wan'er pursed her lips and said, "I've been feeling better recently, so I wanted to go out for a walk. I heard from my third cousin that there was a banquet tonight, so I came along!"

Li Yunrui glanced at Li Chengyuan, his eyes moving slightly, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that you have been very close to the third brother recently?"

Wan'er nodded and said, "Third cousin treats me very well!"

"Really?" Li Yunrui lowered his eyebrows and smiled. "That's a good thing!"

As Li Yunrui was speaking, he suddenly gave an order to the maid beside him.

The maid nodded, then walked to the opposite side and invited Li Chengyuan over.

After Li Chengyuan came over, he looked at Li Yunrui and said calmly, "The Princess wants to ask me something?"

Li Yunrui curled his lips and said, "You don't even want to call me aunt?"

Li Chengyuan suddenly got goose bumps all over his body.

Wan'er suddenly became nervous. What did her mother want to do by calling her cousin over?

"Princess, please speak frankly!" Li Chengyuan didn't want to waste any more time talking to Li Yunrui.

Li Yunrui was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Come closer!"

Li Chengyuan paused, glanced at Wan'er, hesitated for a moment, and took a step forward.

"Come closer!" Li Yunrui said dissatisfiedly.

Li Chengyuan was speechless and said directly: "Princess, just speak frankly! 917"

Li Yunrui was speechless. "I don't know where you get such strong hostility towards me!"

After saying that, Li Chengyuan smiled faintly, and then continued: "Chengyuan, I have always been optimistic about you. If you are willing to join forces with me, I can give you anything you want! Listen carefully, I am talking about anything you want!"

As he spoke, Li Yunrui turned his head and glanced at Lin Wan'er beside him.

Just this one glance made Li Chengyuan angry.

Wan'er felt a chill in her heart instantly!

They are not stupid.

Naturally I know what Li Yunrui meant!
