The number one rebel of the Great Wu

Seeing the Crown Prince's jealous and indignant expression, Chen Changgeng felt helpless.

You're way too slow to realize this!

So when the national policy was handed to you, you were only concerned with your own enjoyment and didn't pay any attention to anything else!

At this moment, Chen Changgeng truly felt sorry for Shen Qingci.

No wonder she wanted a divorce; given Xiao Lie's character.

In the years since she married into the Crown Prince's household, she has cleaned up countless messes for him!

Not long after, at the capital's government office.

Inside the register hall, Zhao Heng was dozing off with his legs propped up on the desk.

Ever since his policy proposal made the Crown Prince famous in the capital, his status in the capital's government offices has risen accordingly.

Even the prefectural governor spoke to him with a cheerful smile.

His other colleagues in the clerk's office treated him like a lord.

"Brother Zhao, the tea is here. This is top-quality Biluochun tea, this year's new tea."

"Please rinse your mouth!"

A clerk carrying tea hurried in.

"Brother Zhao, these are pastries from Zhengdelou. I heard you like them, so I specially sent someone to buy them."

"Try it and see if it tastes the same."

The other clerk was not to be outdone. He quickly took out a paper package, carefully picked out a piece of pastry from the middle, and brought it to Zhao Heng's mouth.

Zhao Heng opened his eyes a crack, slightly parted his mouth, and the pastry was thoughtfully stuffed into his mouth.

After chewing only two bites, his face suddenly turned red, he abruptly covered his throat, and then began to cough violently!

"You bastard! You're trying to feed me such dry snacks? Are you trying to choke me to death?!"

The clerk who delivered the snacks turned pale with fright and quickly patted him on the back.

Meanwhile, another person brought over tea with a sly smile on their face.

Zhao Heng didn't care about anything else, lifted the lid and took a big bite, his face immediately turned a liver color!

"puff!"

"You bastard, you brought me this tea right after I brewed it! Are you trying to scald me to death?!"

"Useless, useless, every single one of you is useless!"

"With your kind of attitude, you expect me to give you some pointers in the future?"

"Your son, with his precious and delicate constitution, do you even know how to properly serve those noble ladies in the palace?!"

"Serving people requires care, understand?"

The two clerks, one on each side, were kicked to the ground by Zhao Heng, covering their faces and begging for mercy.

Zhao Heng rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a paperweight, and was about to start beating people.

At that moment, a constable suddenly rushed in.

"Lord Zhao, good news!"

"Someone from the Crown Prince's residence has arrived. The Crown Prince summons you to his residence to serve him!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng was overjoyed. He didn't care about punishing the two anymore. He straightened his clothes and immediately ran out.

Inside the register hall, the remaining two were in a terrible state, exchanging a glance and could only manage a bitter smile.

News of the Crown Prince has finally arrived!

During this time, the two of them emptied their pockets to please Zhao Heng, and they were subjected to his beatings and disdain every day. Their lives were worse than those of pigs and dogs!

"Great! Great! Brother Ma, our hard times are over!"

The two immediately embraced and wept!

……

Soon after, a simple sedan chair stopped at the entrance of the Crown Prince's residence.

Zhao Heng straightened his hat and adjusted his official robes before following the young eunuch leading the way towards the Crown Prince's study.

The little eunuch kept his head down and remained silent the whole way.

At this moment, Zhao Heng's mind was entirely on the Crown Prince, thinking about how to exaggerate his own achievements in front of the Crown Prince later.

Completely unaware, the person leading the way for him was none other than Chen Changgeng!

Pushing open the study door, Xiao Lie was sitting in the hall, leisurely sipping tea.

Upon seeing the Crown Prince's true face, Zhao Heng was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, and he suddenly knelt down on the ground.

Immediately, a barrage of praise followed.

However, the crown prince already knew about his actions and felt disgusted by them, becoming increasingly angry the more he listened.

"You are Zhao Heng!?"

"Was that policy treatise you sent to the Crown Prince's residence?"

Xiao Lie asked a question.

Zhao Heng completely failed to detect the anger in the words and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, it's me!"

"That essay on national policy was written by me over three months, working day and night."

"You have spared no effort, but for the sake of the Crown Prince, I am willing to go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"Okay, okay!"

Seeing how naturally he answered, Xiao Lie's anger rose to another level.

"You've handled this matter very well. Is there anything you'd like to ask?"

"I, I have no other request!"

"I only want to stay by the Crown Prince's side and serve him for the rest of my life!"

Zhao Heng remained prostrate on the ground, his voice still incredibly sincere.

Xiao Lie gritted his teeth, turned to look at Chen Changgeng, his fists clenched tightly.

He didn't expect that when the two met, every word and phrase of their conversation would be exactly as Chen Changgeng had predicted.

Just as Chen Changgeng said, if he hadn't known the whole story beforehand, he probably would have been completely fooled by this treacherous villain!

Damn it!

Do these people, one by one, think I, the Crown Prince, am a fool?

Despite his anger, Xiao Lie gritted his teeth and persevered, continuing to act out the script given to him by Chen Changgeng.

"Getting into the Crown Prince's residence isn't that easy!"

"I just entered the palace to meet the Emperor today, and I'm tired from walking. My legs are a little sore."

The next second, a pair of feet were stretched out in front of Zhao Heng.

Zhao Heng was stunned. The boots were covered in dust and were extremely worn. They didn't look like something the Crown Prince would wear.

No, this must be the Crown Prince testing me!

Zhao Heng gritted his teeth, quickly reached out and held the big foot, grinning as he muttered to himself.

"I happen to know a little about pinching techniques, so I'll help Your Highness relax!"

After saying that, Zhao Heng carefully took off his boots as if protecting an egg.

Instantly, a stench assaulted our senses!

These are a pair of shoes and socks that Chen Changgeng specially went to the janitor's office to borrow. The smell is comparable to a biological weapon!

At such close range, Zhao Heng's eyes welled up with tears from the fumes, and he had difficulty breathing.

Even so, she forced a smile and started pinching through her socks.

"How is it, Your Highness? Is it comfortable?"

Seeing the thumb constantly twisting under those socks, Zhao Heng couldn't help but ask a question.

"Hmm? Why don't you take off your socks?"

"This is just scratching the surface; I, the Crown Prince, still feel it's not quite right!"

Zhao Heng's heart skipped a beat, and with trembling hands, he gently pulled down the socks.

A pair of enormous feet, truly an eyesore, came into view, and the pungent smell went straight to the top of one's head!

Zhao Heng instantly felt as if his chest was churning like a raging sea, and a surge of heat rushed to his throat.

In that instant, he mustered his steely willpower, forced himself to hold it in, and swallowed it down!

He knew that if he spat this on the prince's feet, the consequences would be unimaginable!

"Zhao Aiqing, why did you stop?"

"Could it be that you find my feet smelly?"

Xiao Lie asked angrily.

His anger at this moment was because Chen Changgeng had shown him the true face of a so-called treacherous minister!

"No, I wouldn't dare!"

"Your Highness's feet are dirty, let me rub them for you."

Zhao Heng stretched out a finger and looked at a patch of black mud on the feet. He was about to touch it when he thought, "What if I hurt the Crown Prince?"

Gritting his teeth and suppressing the intense nausea in his heart, he lowered his head and stuck out his tongue...

The moment you lick it, a salty and bitter taste fills your tongue.

The nausea that had been forcibly suppressed could no longer be contained and surged up all at once.

"Wow!"

At the last moment, Zhao Heng turned his head away and spat a mouthful of yellow fluid all over the ground!

In that instant, Zhao Heng knew he was finished!

My entire political career is over!

"Your Highness, please calm your anger!"

"Small, small!"

Zhao Heng looked up in alarm and begged for mercy, then suddenly froze.

The crown prince was still sitting there, his face full of anger, and standing in front of him was the little eunuch who had led him in!

When he saw the little eunuch's face clearly, Zhao Heng's heart sank into an abyss!

"Yes, it's you!"

"Why is it you again!"
