Chapter 186 Don't Play If You Can't Afford to Lose
Chu Yuanli stared at Yan Qingning intently, and gradually two lines of light tears flowed from his eyes, "I've been so good to you, I've disobeyed my father and mother time and time again for you.
Even at all costs... I have done so much for you, how could you betray me? How could you be so heartless? "
Would Yan Qingning know how much risk he took for her?
There is a risk of being abandoned by the emperor, and this risk is the price of losing the throne to someone else!
Did she know? How could she?
Yan Qingning raised her head suddenly and saw the accusing gaze of King Rui. Her eyes were cold and sharp, "It's ridiculous for King Rui to say such a thing. You said you disobeyed His Majesty for me?
Did I ask you to do this? Or did I give you some hint? What hatred do I have against you that made you want to hurt me like this? Fortunately, Your Majesty is a wise ruler, otherwise you would have regarded me as a scourge?
Also, I have repeatedly stated that from the moment I entered Prince Qing's Mansion, we had no further ties and that we should live our own lives in peace from now on.
But King Rui, you covered your ears and refused to listen, and you were so self-righteous that you thought I was just angry with you!
You kept pestering me, totally disregarding other people's feelings and thoughts, and even threatened me with my sister's silver bracelet and her life to force me to go to Lan Chun Xuan to see you.
Oh, what did you say? You said I betrayed you? How did I betray you? Prince Rui meant that I should have died when my stepmother and stepmother arranged for me to enter Prince Qing's mansion, so as to fulfill my loyalty to you?
Or did King Rui want me to have an affair with King Rui while being King Qing's concubine? Sorry, I can't do such a shameless thing."
Chu Beiqing, Emperor Chu and Concubine Xian looked at the silver bracelet that Yan Qingning showed, and at the same time looked at Chu Yuanli.
There was coldness in his eyes, as well as disappointment and anger.
How could he not understand? It was Prince Rui who couldn't let go and was the one who kept pestering him.
Chu Yuanli immediately defended herself hastily, "I knew you were still blaming me for not being able to protect you when you needed me.
But I have already explained to you that I was stabbed at that time..."
"Prince Rui, today I will tell you solemnly in front of the Emperor and Prince Qing: Do not disturb me again!
Now my heart only has my husband, King Qing, and I just want to be a qualified concubine of King Qing!"
When Chu Beiqing heard Yan Qingning call him "husband" again and said that she only had him in her heart, the rage in his heart suddenly subsided.
A faint feeling of happiness spreads in my heart.
It turns out that this is what his little woman thought in her heart. She hid it really deeply.
If she wasn't forced into a corner, how long would she have planned to hide?
Yan Qingning had no idea how much tears her words today would make her feel.
However, she had seen through men like King Rui, and that meant she had to be decisive.
Chu Yuanli's whole body tensed up. "How could you... trample on my sincerity like this?"
He felt like his sincerity was being used as a humiliation and beating by Yan Qingning, and his eyes were filled with gloom and hatred.
Yan Qingning felt a little uncomfortable with Chu Yuanli's gaze...
At this moment, her arm tightened and she was pulled behind by Chu Beiqing. His tall figure covered her tightly.
Chu Beiqing's voice was emotionless. "Chu Yuanli, I am also warning you. If you continue to bother my concubine, I will not be polite."
The King of Chu could no longer tolerate it and immediately scolded him in a deep voice: "You useless thing, you are a hopeless person and you have the nerve to blame others?"
Before, he had repeatedly emphasized that he and Yan Qingning loved each other, and he mistakenly thought that Yan Qingning was restless.
Who would have thought that he was the only one pretending to be asleep? What a fool he was.
No matter how disappointed he was with his son, the Emperor of Chu would not allow his sons to kill each other because of a woman, nor would he allow his sons to become a laughing stock in the capital because of a woman.
Fortunately, Yan Qingning spoke decisively, and the Emperor of Chu was extremely satisfied with Yan Qingning's performance.
The whole story was clear, and the King of Chu had made a decision, "Prince Rui was disrespectful in front of the emperor and acted recklessly..."
The King of Chu paused, the derogatory words rolling over his tongue, but he still felt a little sorry for his son. "From now on, you will go to Yunxi Paddock to reflect on your past..."
Chu Yuanli seemed to have his soul sucked out of him. He was a little numb and kowtowed mechanically, "I am an unfilial son. I will obey your order."
Chu Yuanli's eyes were filled with overwhelming hatred...

"What do you think?"
After sending everyone away, Emperor Chu sighed and asked calmly.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a white cloth robe and holding a folding fan walked out from behind the screen.
The man looked indescribably calm, his eyes bright and sparkling with wisdom.
The folding fan was waved gently, "The little girl has a clear mind, neither humble nor arrogant, and this calmness and composure is not something that ordinary people can have!
I'm afraid that the ministers in the court are trembling in fear when facing His Majesty's wrath, and few of them can be as calm and composed as the daughter of Lord Zhongshu.
It is rare to be so calm and composed, without any confusion at all."
"Yes, Yan Feng did give birth to a good daughter..." The Chu Emperor paced with his hands behind his back, muttering, "But at such a young age, isn't she a little too cunning?"
I really don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing!
The middle-aged scholar couldn't help but say: "That depends on how your majesty plays this chess game..."
The Emperor of Chu was slightly startled when he heard this...
However, at this moment, Chen Dajian hurriedly trotted in, approached the Emperor of Chu, and without waiting for a breath, he reported: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu and Concubine De are fighting..."
The good mood of the Emperor of Chu disappeared in an instant. He felt a headache coming on. He raised his hand and pinched his brows, saying coldly, "Let them fight. There is no need to report this to me in a hurry. It is not too late to report it after the result. I can also see what kind of hero my harem can produce!"
"Tsk, are they desperate? Look at what they are capable of. If you can't afford to lose, don't play. The older they get, the more shameless they become. They're even imitating street shrews!" The Emperor of Chu sneered and spat.
……
At the same time, Chu Beiqing in the carriage was asking Yan Qingning the same question.
"What do you think?"
Chu Beiqing bent one leg lazily, tapping rhythmically with his fingers on his thigh.
Yan Qingning moved away from his long legs, "Is the prince asking about Concubine Shu?"
Chu Beiqing raised his eyebrows, and a faint smile appeared in his deep eyes. He knew that she had a keen sense of smell and could grasp the key points at once, "That's right!"
"It's obvious that Concubine Shu is taking advantage of the situation!" Yan Qingning hit the nail on the head, then sneered and said, "After what she said, you and your brothers are all bad, but Concubine Shu's son is the only one who is perfect. Her intentions are clear at a glance..."
As she spoke, Yan Qingning laughed so hard that she couldn't stop.
"What are you laughing at?" Chu Beiqing couldn't help but ask.
It's amazing that she can still laugh now.
"I am laughing at this wonderful Defei." Yan Qingning couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why would she choose to turn against Shufei at this time? It would not be good for her to offend Shufei, right?"
