Chapter 1457: Scum Man

Ping'an"Quite interesting."Li Chen became somewhat interested."Tell me, what makes you think this palace would spare your life, and risk so much for you"Before Zhou Ping could speak, Li Chen said agai...Chapter 1457: Scumbag

Leaving space and time for Wu Qingshang and his men to discuss counter-tactics against the Liao army, Li Chen left their council chamber.

Coming outside, Li Chen called for Xu Wei.

"Is there any news from the capital"

Xu Wei shook his head and said, "Your Highness, according to the rules, the latest news is probably still on its way and will not arrive until evening."

Nodding, Li Chen said, "Report any news or changes immediately."

"Yes, sir."

As he spoke, Li Chen walked past the backyard and saw a woman rushing out of the yard with her face covered, almost bumping into him.

"Harvest"

Recognizing the woman weeping with tears streaming down her face, Li Chen exclaimed in surprise, "What's wrong"

Cai He choked back her sobs, knelt down and bowed to Li Chen, saying: "My humble self has seen the Crown Prince. I'm fine, Your Highness. It’s all right."

Although she was the Prince Ning's concubine before, now that she stayed with Zhou Changshou by Li Chen's side, she naturally couldn't call herself the Prince Ning's concubine anymore. Calling herself a common woman wouldn't be inappropriate.

Li Chen glanced at the courtyard where Cai He had run out, which was arranged for Zhou Changshou and Zhou Ping'an to live together. He had some ideas in mind, so Li Chen said: "But there has been a disagreement with Changshou"

Cai He could no longer hold back her tears, and cried out: "Your Highness, Zhou...Zhou Lord despises me."

Li Chen frowned, then comforted Cai He: "This palace doesn't think Chang Shou is this kind of person. So, this palace will take you back. When we get there, we can talk things over properly. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, that's it."

Cai He clearly felt deeply for Zhou Changshou. Hearing this, she immediately nodded and tearfully followed Li Chen back to the courtyard.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Li Chen saw Zhou Changshou sitting in a chair reading a book. Zhou Ping'an was lying on a lounge chair, nodding and shaking his head occasionally, muttering to himself.

The noble has arrived.

Upon seeing Li Chen arrive, Zhou Changshou immediately stood up and pulled Zhou Ping'an up as well.

"You're welcome."

Li Chen pointed behind him at Cai He and said to Zhou Changshou with a smile, "Changshou, she came before me and complained about you."

Cai He's face was tense, tears welling up but she didn't have time to wipe them away. She hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I... I did nothing wrong. Zhou DaRen committed no offense. Everything is just my one-sided wishful thinking..."

Cai He obviously misunderstood Li Chen's meaning, fearing that he would punish Zhou Changshou. But that one-sided wishful thought sounded rather heartbreaking.

Cai He doesn't understand, Zhou Changshou naturally does.

He let out a soft sigh and bowed to Li Chen, saying: "Your Highness, it's difficult for an impartial official to settle family affairs. This is a private matter concerning Changshou, so please allow Changshou to resolve it himself."

"That's what they said."

Li Chen glared at Zhou Changshou and said, "Your private affairs are none of my concern, but Cai He was brought out of Jin Cheng by me. What's more, she seems to have done well in transmitting messages. Even if you started the relationship and abandoned it, you should at least give her an explanation. Otherwise, I will take care of this matter."

Zhou Changshou smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, Changshou is accustomed to being alone. He comes and goes without any worries, and he really doesn't want to create complications."

Li Chen hadn't said anything yet, but Cai He next to him heard this and burst into tears.

Li Chen frowned, looking at Zhou Changshou, and felt that the honest face was full of two words: scumbag.

"You don't want things to get complicated. What did you do by provoking her in the first place Now that she has given up everything for you, you say you're used to being alone You even read so many books of sages, but it all went into your dog belly!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping'an laughed with glee. He said with a boisterous chuckle, "Your Highness thinks exactly as I do. My second brother is truly shameless."Chapter 364: Praying for the Emperor
