In the East Palace, in the Hall of a Hundred Flowers where Consort Zhao Rui, consort of the Crown Prince, resided.

The lord has arrived.

Seeing Li Chen stride towards her, Zhao Rui hurriedly got up to greet him.

"I heard that the Crown Prince went to court this morning Is everything going smoothly Are you hungry, my lord I shall have someone prepare some of your favorite pastries..."

Before Zhao Rui could finish her words, Li Chen interrupted her.

"No need, this palace speaks with the Crown Princess. Everyone else, please step down."

All the maidservants had left. Li Chen sat down on the soft bed and looked out at the snow scene, casually saying: "This Baifang Palace is known for its peonies and roses, but these flowers are delicate and troublesome to care for. Their blooming period is also short. With the weather turning cold today, it would be best to raise some plum blossoms."

Zhao Rui brewed a pot of tea for Li Chen and gently placed it on the small tea table beside the soft couch. Hearing his words, she said, "Plum blossoms are cold-resistant, and in this winter when all things are quiet, there aren't many flowers that can bloom so gorgeously. If Your Highness likes them, I will have someone plant some plum blossoms. But previously, Your Highness only liked flamboyant flowers. Now why would you want me to plant such a plain and elegant flower like the plum blossom"

"Man, is changing."

Li Chen said in an understated way, picked up his teacup and took a sip, praising, "A good quality Jin Jun Mei, this tea, wouldn't even be found in the Eastern Palace, would it Must have been sent in from outside"

For some reason, Zhao Rui always felt that Li Chen was strange today, as if everything he said had an ulterior motive.

But she didn't dare to ask directly, so she could only answer carefully: "Green tea is cold and can hurt the stomach. This concubine prefers red tea, so I asked someone to buy some... If Your Highness doesn't like it, this concubine will not drink it again."

"Like, really like."

Li Chen put down his teacup and pulled Zhao Rui's soft waist, letting her lie on his chest. Looking at the beautiful Zhao Rui, Li Chen smiled lightly: "Cao Zhi wrote seven-step poems back then and later penned 'The Goddess of the Luo River' to praise the beauty of the Luo goddess. Now, I say, the Luo goddess pales in comparison to the imperial concubine."

Zhao Rui's pretty face flushed slightly, and she retorted, "In broad daylight, Your Highness is speaking nonsense..."

"Words from the heart."

Li Chen's palm gently caressed Zhao Rui's crystal clear and smooth cheeks. His thumb rubbed against her seductive red lips, his eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "The Imperial Concubine was arranged to enter the East Palace that day, bearing the task of beguiling this palace, wasn't she However, it seems this mission has failed. Has the Grand Preceptor not given you further instructions"

This sentence made Zhao Rui, who had just been lying softly on Li Chen’s body, stiffen instantly.

Her beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of panic and horror, she subconsciously said, "Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean."

"Confused"

Li Chen's smile gradually vanished, and he said, "You are Zhao Xuanji's distant relative. He carefully sent you to my side. Now that the situation is unfavorable to him, why wouldn't he use you as a pawn"

Zhao Rui frantically tried to scramble off Li Chen, but was pinned down by him, unable to move.

"This palace is considering...whether to kill you or spare you. So, at this moment, you best say nothing and do nothing, otherwise this palace might make a decision right now."

Li Chen's words terrified Zhao Rui, causing her face to pale instantly. She immediately collapsed onto Li Chen's chest, not daring to move even an inch.

At least Li Chen hadn't made a decision yet, so he could still be alive.

Once a decision is made, life and death will be decided.

Zhao Rui bit her lips, her bright and alluring eyes brimming with teardrops, making anyone who looked at her feel pity.

Let's go.

Li Chen suddenly pushed Zhao Rui away and got up, saying.

"Where to"

Zhao Ruifang's heart skipped a beat. Was the Crown Prince going to take her out and have her killed

Afraid that their own blood would stain the East Palace
