The number one rebel of the Great Wu

What does this woman mean?

Didn't you tell me to watch this?

Chen Changgeng cried out in his heart that he was wronged!

In just a few seconds, Shen Qingci's face turned red all the way to the roots of her neck. Her beautiful face was rosy and radiant, making one want to pounce on her and take a bite!

At this moment, Shen Qingci's head was also buzzing!

The first thought that flashed through my mind was that I had lost my innocence!

Instantly, her small fists clenched tightly!

"I will kill you!"

Before she could finish speaking, Shen Qingci slipped, her beautiful eyes widened, and she fell straight into the bathtub!

Upon seeing this, Chen Changgeng felt a pang of anxiety and instinctively reached out to embrace him!

With a splash, the two of them fell into the water together!

In the chaos, a soft, delicate body pressed against him.

Chen Changgeng was flustered and only felt that he had grabbed something soft.

When the two of them emerged from the water, what greeted Chen Changgeng was a pair of beautiful, bloodshot eyes that could kill!

Seeing the clothes floating on the water, and holding the smooth, delicate body in his arms, Chen Changgeng's heart skipped a beat.

Finished!

Now there's no way to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River!

To hell with it, even if I die, I want to die knowing why!

"Hmm!"

Chen Changgeng gritted his teeth and simply took a bite!

……

half an hour.

The splashing and struggling sounds in the bathtub finally stopped, and figures moved.

When the screen in the distance was slowly pulled back, Shen Qingci had already changed into a clean new outfit.

Only Chen Changgeng, looking like a drowned rat, sat on the steps of the bathhouse with a furrowed brow.

Damn it, what a fucking bad luck!

Impulsive as he may have been, now that the matter was over, he thought to himself, "It's better to live a miserable life than to die!"

But things have come to this point.

This woman is not easy to fool!

"Give me one reason not to kill you!"

Shen Qingci's voice was icy.

"This humble servant meant no offense; I merely saw Your Highness fall into the water and was solely focused on protecting you!"

Shen Qingci's emotions, which had just calmed down, trembled again, and her tone became sinister.

"Was it unintentional to take advantage of the situation?"

"You've touched every inch of my body!"

Chen Changgeng gave a bitter smile, knowing that no matter how much he pretended to be a lackey now, it wouldn't work.

The lower her status, the more arrogant she will become. We must suppress her this time!

So he simply straightened his back and answered loudly.

"Your Highness, there are three reasons not to kill me."

"Firstly, Your Highness cannot kill me today. You have just come out of the bath, and I am still soaking wet."

"There are many people and many eyes in the palace. If you insist on killing me now, your innocence will be lost."

Shen Qingci's face darkened.

"Secondly, Your Highness cannot kill me tomorrow. When His Majesty issues his decree tomorrow, he will surely recall the Crown Prince to the palace."

"Without me, the Crown Prince would have been in grave danger on this journey!"

Shen Qingci frowned slightly, and her tone immediately became concerned.

"Why do you say that?"

Chen Changgeng certainly wouldn't say it outright at this moment, he would just chuckle.

"We'll know tomorrow."

Shen Qingci took a deep breath, her eyes filled with even more killing intent.

"And the day after tomorrow, and then the day after that?"

"I refuse to believe I can't kill you in my entire life!"

Chen Changgeng smiled confidently.

"I already know your secret."

"Having been in the Crown Prince's residence for so long, yet still not bearing him any children, I'm afraid the Crown Prince hasn't even touched you yet."

"Next, the Crown Prince will receive the news that if he has no heir, his position as heir will be difficult to secure."

"I don't need to explain its significance, do I?"

Shen Qingci's expression immediately turned panicked!

Unexpectedly, he still managed to get the most crucial point under his control!

Throughout history, which emperor would choose a prince without an heir as crown prince?

Right now, as long as the Crown Prince gains the Emperor's favor with Chen Changgeng's help, the baby will definitely follow.

And her current state...

"What does that have to do with you?"

Shen Qingci still harbored a sliver of hope and coldly retorted.

"Because you can only rely on me to solve this problem."

"If you were to replace someone else, one more person would know your secret, which would increase the risk."

"And I am utterly loyal to you, Crown Princess, with absolutely no disloyalty!"

"He is the best person for this matter!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

After hearing this, Shen Qingci said "good" three times, but in reality, he was furious.

Chen Changgeng's analysis was very logical, but the more logical she was, the stronger her desire to kill him became!

But she knew in her heart that although she didn't absolutely need Chen Changgeng, he was indeed the best choice at the moment!

Is it...

She could only swallow her anger and endure his humiliation, powerless to do anything about it!

"Death is inevitable, but punishment is unavoidable."

"I might give up my dog's life, but I'll chop off your hands!"

"We could actually turn you into a eunuch!"

Shen Qingci stared coldly at Chen Changgeng.

That chilling gaze almost made Chen Changgeng retract his penis into his abdomen!

"Hehe, please don't joke around with me."

"If it can be given, why take it away?"

"It wouldn't do you any good to force such a loyal servant like me to rebel, would it?"

Shen Qingci remained silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

"Get out! I don't want to see you right now!"

Immediately, Chen Changgeng felt as if he had been granted a pardon and quickly ran out.

Chen Changgeng ran straight out of the Crown Princess's palace before stopping and letting out a long sigh of relief.

Damn it, luckily I was quick-witted.

Otherwise, even if his life is saved, his second brother and his future happy life will be gone.

It's not going to be easy for Chen Changgeng to ask Shen Qingci for this money again anytime soon.

How can this be good?

Chen Changgeng looked worried. He went back to his residence to change his clothes and then lay down on the bed to think.

You can't exactly make yourself perform on the street, break stones on your chest, or write letters and tell fortunes to people like a charlatan, can you?

That stuff makes money way too slowly!

If something really goes wrong, with those meager sums, running away will be a nightmare!

Suddenly, Chen Changgeng's eyes lit up!

Yup!

I am currently in the Crown Prince's residence!

Making money depends on the location!

The Crown Prince's reputation has just been ruined by his own policy proposal.

During this period, quite a few people will likely come to curry favor with the Crown Prince.

Why not just find a way to get money from those officials?

Chen Changgeng sprang out of bed with a somersault and immediately headed towards the side gate of the Crown Prince's residence.

If it's really a gift, then you definitely have to go through the side door.

As long as I keep watch every day, he'll eventually find an opportunity.

Sure enough, not long after we arrived near the side gate...

A few loud knocks came from the door.

The young eunuch at the gate opened the door a crack, said something, and quickly welcomed the person who had knocked in.

The man was dressed in fine clothes, and behind him were two teams of men carrying loads on their shoulders.

The two large boxes probably contained either gold and silver treasures or some rare antiques.

He doesn't look like an official... more like a wealthy businessman.

Chen Changgeng's eyes lit up, and a plan immediately came to mind.

He immediately got up, took a shortcut, went to the road the two of them would definitely pass, deliberately found a secluded and deserted place, and started yelling angrily.

"Are you all deaf? We've already said the Crown Prince doesn't accept gifts anymore!"

"Our Crown Prince is now the heir apparent to the throne, so naturally he is frugal and incorruptible, setting an example for all officials!"

"Send all this junk back!"

"And tell the person who sent the gift, if they dare send this thing to your residence again, they'd better watch out for their head!"

After giving him a good scolding, Chen Changgeng walked out from around the corner with a smug look on his face.

The young eunuch who opened the door and led the way had never seen Chen Changgeng before, so he was naturally taken aback.

The wealthy merchant's expression changed drastically, and he quickly waved his hand to stop the men behind him.

Immediately afterwards, she put on a fawning smile and moved closer.

"Sir, who are you?"
