Sweet Desire! The Cold Lord God, Who Can Tease, Coax, and Act Coquettish. - Chap 2047
As he spoke, he threw away the melon seed shells, approached a few palace maids who were not afraid of their lives, and began to describe the situation at that time.
He kept talking, and talked about every detail, as if he was there.
It sounds extremely annoying.
But the eldest prince wanted to say that he was protected by the empress dowager and the Duke of Anguo, and he was also the eldest son. Logically speaking, he was the best candidate for the throne.
If Si Jin hadn’t used some despicable means to sell out Juhua, how could he have snatched the throne from him?
All these years, he had been enduring in Bingzhou, a place with turbulent weather, just waiting for this moment. Duke Anguo asked him to return to Beijing to spread rumors, saying that the more exaggerated the rumors were, the more they would arouse Si Jin’s sense of crisis, and the sooner he would become emperor.
He naturally has to…try his best~
The eldest prince talked incessantly, but after a while, the palace maids and eunuchs around him dared not agree with him.
His lips turned pale and even his hands were shaking.
The timid ones even ran away quietly without saying goodbye to him.
“Hey, we haven’t even gotten to the exciting part yet, please don’t…”
“The Emperor has arrived——”
The eldest prince paused as he raised his hand. He looked up and saw Si Jin and a group of young eunuchs slowly approaching.
Beside him, the chief steward, Eunuch Liu, held a food box in both hands. When he saw the eldest prince, he still bowed his head and performed the highest standard of courtesy, smiling and saying, “Your Highness has not returned to the palace for a long time. Your Majesty misses you very much. He specially ordered the servant to brew the best Longjing tea and bring it over for Your Highness to drink together.”
“Your Highness, please go back.”
Both his left leg and right hand were disabled. After all, the eldest prince had a psychological fear of Si Jin. He took a step back and subconsciously suspected that Si Jin had put poison in the tea.
But if you think about it, maybe you shouldn’t.
When he returned to the palace, all the civil and military officials saw it. For the sake of his reputation, Si Jin did not dare to attack him openly.
The eldest prince was relieved and reluctantly turned his head: “Please.”
“Please.” Si Jin smiled and winked at Eunuch Liu.
After entering the palace, Eunuch Liu quickly prepared tea and snacks, then went out and summoned the Imperial Guards to arrest all the people who had followed the eldest prince in gossiping.
After being severely tortured and warned, he was sent out of the palace.
This kind of person is as brainless as the eldest prince. He is not suitable to stay in the palace, nor is he suitable to… have a long tongue.
There was silence in the room, and the eldest prince had no idea of the miserable plight of the palace maids and eunuchs outside.
After hearing Si Jin’s few soft words, he thought that Si Jin was really being controlled by Shen Linyuan and needed his help.
Being coaxed by Si Jin’s repeated “Royal Brother”, his attitude unconsciously became arrogant: “When I came here, Duke Anguo told me that I can help you, but you have to apologize to me.”
Si Jin raised an eyebrow: “Hmm?”
“As the saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly. You hurt me back then, so you should at least apologize, right? Kneel down and apologize to your brother.”
Si Jin’s eyes darkened slightly, and he could feel the low pressure all over his body just by taking three steps closer.
However, the eldest prince seemed to be completely unaware of this. He leaned back in his chair with an arrogant look on his face and pointed at the ground: “What are you standing there for? Kneel down!”
The thought of a king kneeling down to him was enough to make him happy.
“Okay.” Si Jin still responded kindly: “Then drink a sip of tea first, and I will apologize.”
“No?” The eldest prince winked and said, “Who knows if you poisoned it or not? I won’t drink it, just apologize and get out of here, do you really think I’m stupid?”
Si Jin tilted his head and smiled indifferently.
“It seems that my brother has grown in intelligence over the past three years in Bingzhou.”
“There is intelligence, but not much.”
As he spoke, Si Jin ignored the eldest prince’s ugly expression, pulled the fox fur gloves on his hands, and stood up slowly.
“Then, my royal brother, guess why I am wearing gloves today?”
