There are always sick girls with ill intentions towards me

Chapter 55 Are you looking for trouble on purpose?

Even though Shen Yike was used to seeing big storms, he couldn't help but be shocked and lose his composure.

The human head in the box made him feel completely relieved.

A master of the first level!

Cui Bei claimed to be invincible below the Saint Realm, and he was invincible among those above the Saint Realm, but he died just like that?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"This is not true..."

Faced with Shen Yike's mumbling, Li Lingge was no longer polite.

"Minister Shen, do you know this person?"

The corner of Shen Yike's mouth twitched. He said he didn't know him. Is it possible?
In the entire capital city, everyone knows that Cui Bei is his henchman!

"Who is this person who killed my guards? Please tell me, Your Majesty!"

Shen Yike couldn't stand the smell that tasted like a dead rat and spoiled squid in soy sauce.

He waved his hand, signaling the butler to take the things away quickly.

However, Li Lingge stepped forward and closed the box, blocking the butler behind him.

"Minister Shen, it's inappropriate to take away the surprise without explaining the matter clearly, isn't it?"

Shen Yike walked a little further away and found a guest seat to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for sending the body of the guard in the palace. I will reward you generously."

Li Lingge took out the image-retaining bead and activated his true energy, projecting a huge beam of light into the air in the reception room.

Soon, Cui Bei's figure appeared on the light screen, along with his conversation with Li Lingge.

'Senior, what does this mean?'

'Do it yourself.'

"Just because I refused to cooperate with the prince in the trade of Vietnamese brocade and gauze, will the prince kill me?"

"You should know the consequences of rejecting the prince."

"Is this also what Shen Guozhang meant?"

"The prince's intention is the same as Prime Minister Shen's intention."

……

Shen Yike drooped his eyelids slightly and couldn't help but laugh.

"A good father will have a good son. The young are to be feared."

He sighed slightly, raised his eyes and asked.

"What does the prince want?"

With this human head and this magical bead, he knew that he was already in a passive position.

Not only did he fail to kill the person, but he also ended up with evidence against him.

Li Lingge had already thought about what he wanted, otherwise he would not have traveled thousands of miles back to Beijing carrying Cui Bei's head.

"I heard that Prime Minister Shen has a nine-leaf snow lotus that can revive the dead."

Shen Yike's fingers trembled. This was the Nine-Leaf Snow Lotus that was targeting him.

That was a first-grade elixir, and he would keep it to prolong his life when his time came.

"Your Majesty, please do not believe in rumors. There is no such thing in the world."

Li Lingge leaned forward slightly and spoke word by word.

"I'm not negotiating with you, I'm giving you a chance."

"My Lord, I really don't have this."

Hearing this, Li Lingge said nothing more, tied the white cloth, picked up the wooden box and walked out.

Seeing that he was really leaving, Shen Yike became a little panicked.

"Your Highness, please stay... Li Lingge!"

Li Lingge stopped walking out of the reception room, turned to look at Shen Yike, and still said nothing.

Shen Yike was getting a little impatient.

"Where are you taking my guard's body, my Lord?"

Li Lingge let out a long sigh.

"Prime Minister Shen, I gave you a chance, but you were useless."

He raised his hands, holding the wooden box in one hand and the Liuying beads in the other, and continued.

“This is not just the corpse of Prime Minister Shen’s guard, but also the physical evidence that Prime Minister Shen and the Crown Prince conspired to send someone to rob and kill me!
If there is no one to speak on this matter, I will go and beat the drum to ask Your Majesty to make the decision."

"You——" Shen Yike was so angry that his beard trembled, "The prince is the crown prince, the future emperor!"

"Our dynasty governs the world with magic. If a prince breaks the law, he will be punished just like a commoner!"

"Do you think His Majesty will really punish the Crown Prince for you?"

"If Your Majesty is partial, I don't believe that there will be no court officials to advise you."

Li Lingge did not give in at all. Since you dared to assassinate him, you must pay the price.

Although Shen Yike is extremely powerful in the court, the second prince also has supporters.

In the harem, the second prince's biological mother, Concubine Wan, was the only one favored by the emperor.

In the court, the emperor's younger brother, the executive vice emperor of Da Chu, King Qin Jiang Xingci, is an even greater supporter of the second prince.

The Second Prince and his party would certainly not stand idly by when faced with such an opportunity to add insult to injury.

If you don't let me live a good life, then no one else can live a good life.

I am about to ascend to heaven, why should I be afraid of you evil spirits? Shen Yike's face was ruddy and his breathing was a little heavy.

"Li Lingge, you are deliberately looking for trouble, aren't you?!"

"That's not right. It was clearly Prime Minister Shen and the Crown Prince who wanted to kill me, so how come I'm the one looking for trouble?"

Li Lingge walked into the reception room step by step and came in front of Shen Yike.

"Just because I refused to cooperate with the prince, you sent people to rob and kill me. Isn't this bullying an honest man?"

Just as he finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps outside the reception room.

Turning around, he saw a dozen guards standing outside the door, all of them were of the seventh rank or higher.

The housekeeper stood at the door, blocking Li Lingge's way.

"Master Prime Minister."

Obviously, as long as Shen Yike gave the order, these people would rush forward.

"Back off!" Shen Yike was so angry that he started coughing violently.

In full view of everyone, Li Lingge walked into the Shen Mansion.

If a person died here, how would he explain to the world?

Li Lingge died in the capital, in the Shen Mansion, just after he handed over his military power. What would the soldiers in the southern border think?
What's more, this boy is the first disciple of the dean of the academy, and the academy will not let it go.

Even if he dared to go against the world, was Li Lingge a fool?
If he didn't have the means to protect himself, how could he come here alone to face off?

Don't forget, the head of the first-grade realm is still in someone else's hands.

"Go get the Nine-Leaf Snow Lotus!" Shen Yike stared at Li Lingge and squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "Give it to him!"

A dozen guards stepped back, leaving a path to the living room.

Li Lingge nodded with satisfaction and put the box back on the table.

"The property returns to its original owner."

Soon, a square brocade box was held by the butler and placed in front of Li Lingge.

The brocade box exuded a hint of coldness. Li Lingge raised his hand to open the brocade box and saw a blue crystal box inside.

This box is made of cold crystal and can seal the spiritual energy of the Nine-Leaf Snow Lotus, effectively reducing the loss of medicinal properties.

Li Lingge opened the crystal box, and a crystal clear blood lotus appeared before his eyes, with a little frost on it.

The moment the box was opened, spiritual energy overflowed.

Seeing that it was indeed what he wanted, he closed the lid.

"What happened before was all a misunderstanding. I won't bother Shen Xiang anymore."

"Wait a minute!" Seeing Li Lingge was about to leave, Shen Yike immediately said, "Your Highness, you have to leave the beads in your hand too."

Li Lingge looked at the photo bead in his hand. This thing would be of great use in the future, so he couldn't give it away easily.

"This thing is very valuable, so it's impossible to give it to Shen Xiang. However, I can delete the contents of the photo bead, so that Shen Xiang can feel at ease."

"How can I believe that you really deleted it?"

"This bead contains a storage array. As long as the true energy flows into it and destroys the corresponding array, the contents can be deleted."

Li Lingge handed the beads in his hand over and continued.

"If Minister Shen doesn't believe it, he can find someone in the mansion who knows about formations to check it out."

Shen Yike narrowed his eyes slightly, then gave the housekeeper a wink.

Since this matter concerns the crown prince, he has to be cautious.

I have given away all the Nine-Leaf Snow Lotus. If I get cheated again, it would be a joke.

Soon, a short and fat middle-aged man walked in from the guards outside the hall.

He took the photo bead from Li Lingge's hand and examined it carefully. As the true energy poured in, the light curtain was projected into the air again.

Click.

With a slight shattering sound, a crack appeared inside the crystal clear image bead.

At the same time, the content on the light curtain became blank.

The fat man bowed to Shen Yike.

"Prime Minister, it has indeed been deleted."

Seeing this, Shen Yike waved his hand.

"Go down."

The fat man returned the photo-taking bead, bowed and walked out.

Li Lingge was playing with the Image-Retaining Bead, which contained hundreds of storage formations. Although one was destroyed, it could still be used.

But there was an extra crack.

"Minister Shen, goodbye."

When he reached the door of the reception room, Li Lingge turned to look at the Shen residence's housekeeper and asked meaningfully.

"Guess how Cui Bei died?"

He didn't even wait for the butler to give an answer and walked straight out of the reception room.

Before leaving, he glanced at the dozen or so guards outside the door and shook his head.

"Only a few dozen taels of silver a month, what's the point of playing with your life?"

puff--

Looking at Li Lingge's arrogant back as he left, Shen Yike couldn't bear it any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"This child, this child must not be allowed to stay!"
