The number one rebel of the Great Wu

"How is my third brother?"

Xiao Ce was still completely confused. He was already unhappy with this third brother.

Mentioning his name at this moment is like kicking his nerves.

But Shen Qingci had no intention of answering his question at all; instead, her face grew increasingly ashen.

"Is this why His Majesty summoned General Jiang to the capital?"

"Yes and no, His Majesty has a deeper plan behind the scenes."

Shen Qingci gasped, then asked in a trembling voice.

"Then tell me, is the worst-case scenario possible?"

Chen Changgeng looked up and saw Shen Qingci slowly open his mouth. The words "deposed crown prince" were not uttered, but were already in the shape of his lips.

"I assure Your Highness the Crown Princess, I will."

"Clatter!"

The chopsticks in Shen Qingci's hand fell to the ground instantly, as if her soul had been ripped away.

"However, Your Highness need not worry, this is only temporary."

"Once the fighting subsides, everything will return to normal."

Xiao Lie completely ignored the conversation between the master and servant.

Xiao Lie couldn't understand a single word and was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks!

"My beloved concubine, Xiao Gengzi, what kind of riddle are you two playing?"

"Explain this to me right now!"

Shen Qingci suddenly snapped out of her daze, turned to look at Xiao Lie, and her expression gradually became serious.

"Your Highness only needs to do as Xiao Gengzi says, there is no need to ask any more questions."

"I am not feeling well, I should go back and rest first."

Shen Qingci's mind was throbbing. Whether it was the news of the deposed crown prince or the emperor's desire to have a grandson, it all gave her a huge headache.

She needs some time to process these two pieces of bad news.

However, Crown Prince Xiao Lie cannot know the full story of these matters, otherwise, if he loses his temper, he might not follow the Emperor's script.

We all have to play together!

"Little Gengzi, the Crown Prince... is now entrusted to you."

Shen Qingci stood up, nodded slightly, and deliberately adopted a posture of entrusting his orphan to someone else.

In her heart, she was relieved that she had managed to bring Chen Changgeng back; otherwise, she herself would not have been able to withstand these two calamities, let alone the Crown Prince.

At that time... the Crown Prince will surely perish.

……

Half an hour.

Chen Changgeng returned to the house looking exhausted.

He dealt with the Crown Prince quite thoroughly, using various threats and inducements, but Chen Changgeng didn't dare reveal a single detail.

As soon as the door opened, I saw Azi sitting cross-legged on the bed, silently cultivating.

On the table, a bowl of congee and a small dish of pickled vegetables were left for Chen Changgeng.

"You stinking man, you finally know how to come back!"

Azi suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with anger.

Chen Changgeng appeared exhausted, and his voice immediately softened.

"Explain to me what this thing is!"

The next second, something was thrown out and gently hit Chen Changgeng in the chest.

Chen Changgeng instinctively reached out to catch it, then froze on the spot.

In his hand was a sachet emitting a delicate fragrance.

Judging by the style, isn't this Jiang Baiwei's?

This afternoon, Jiang Baiwei came for her medical treatment as planned, but she accidentally left her sachet here.

"Not only have you forgotten your promise to my sister, but you've also been having an affair with another woman!"

Ah Zi gritted her teeth and reached for the dagger.

"Wait, Zi, let me explain!"

"I was summoned away by the Crown Prince during dinner."

"Moreover, Miss Jiang Baiwei came to me solely for medical treatment!"

Chen Changgeng cried out that he was wronged.

"Do you think I'd believe that!"

"You stinking man, you just grabbed me without saying a word, grabbed me!"

Azi's eyes reddened slightly, and her nose tingled with emotion.

For some reason, my anger suddenly turned into heartache.

She was just about to get ready to accept this jerk, and then he pulled this stunt.

He's a womanizer, a flirt!

Yesterday, my younger sister mentioned in her letter that besides her and her sister, there was another girl named Xiang'er.

After all, Xiang'er had feelings for this scoundrel first, and she and her sister were the third parties who interfered.

Besides, Xiang'er treated her two sisters well.

That's why she endured it!

If there's one more person involved, she simply can't tolerate it!

Azi Teng suddenly stood up, held the dagger upside down, and ruthlessly stabbed.

Chen Changgeng stood still, neither dodging nor flinching, watching the flash of cold light.

He knew that Azi wouldn't actually do it.

"sieve!"

The blade stopped abruptly just half an inch from Chen Changgeng's neck.

Tears the size of purple beans kept rolling down her cheeks as she angrily asked, feeling wronged.

Why didn't you dodge!

"You just think I won't do it, you're just trying to bully me, aren't you!"

Chen Changgeng slowly raised his hand and grasped her wrist.

Azi is a typical example of someone with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, but as the older sister, she has no choice but to stand up for her younger sister!

"I didn't mean to bully you. I just didn't do those things, so why are you hiding from me?"

"You've misunderstood me. Can't I prove my innocence with my death?"

Chen Changgeng spoke calmly.

Azi paused slightly, her beautiful eyes flashing as she stared into Chen Changgeng's eyes.

Those eyes were firm, without the slightest hesitation.

"You...you really didn't do anything?"

"Is it simply about treating the illness?"

Chen Changgeng nodded even more firmly.

"Can you guarantee that you won't have any improper thoughts about that Miss Jiang in the future?!"

Chen Changgeng shook his head decisively.

"Humans are not plants or stones; how can they be without feelings?"

"I can't guarantee that."

"You! You're actually honest!"

Azi's mood, which had just improved, instantly collapsed again. She immediately turned her hand and punched Chen Changgeng hard in the chest.

"I knew it! You stinking men, all you ever think about is having multiple wives and concubines!"

"We sisters are so unlucky to have followed you!"

Chen Changgeng chuckled, reached out and gently pulled Azi into his arms.

Azi snorted heavily and shoved Chen Changgeng away.

"Don't touch me!"

"If you have something to say, go tell your sister!"

After saying that, Azi turned around.

In a short while, when she turned around again, her entire demeanor had changed drastically.

"You wicked husband!"

You stood me up!

Ah Yuan puffed out her cheeks angrily, glaring at Chen Changgeng with a look that said, "I'm not going to let you get away with this today."

Chen Changgeng was startled and quickly confirmed it.

"Is that A-Yuan?"

"You two sisters, you can do this?"

"Under special circumstances, if both parties agree, it is possible to temporarily switch roles."

"However, it won't last long, at most half an hour."

Ah Yuan crossed her arms, sat down on the edge of the bed, and then turned her head away.

"What are you still standing there for?"

"Husband, how will you make it up to A-Yuan!?"

"Then...should I take off my clothes?"

Although Ah Yuan was angry, her fixed gaze kept scanning him.

They were clearly craving it!

"You're smart to know what's good for you!"

Ah Yuan pouted, then immediately put on a smile, and with a "plop," she pulled off the covers and tumbled inside.

Then, she revealed a pair of big, blinking eyes and stared at Chen Changgeng, saying in a coquettish tone.

"Oh, my husband, hurry up, hurry up!"

Chen Changgeng gave a dry laugh.

Half an hour seems a bit short.

What if your sister's personality forcibly switches halfway through the journey...

Isn't that a bit too exciting?
