The Crown Princess is reborn, and the three treasures compete to burn the family tree
Chapter 40 The child Jiang Li was looking for had died long ago
From the moment the beggar stepped in and she cast the poison, Chu Ninghan just stood there without moving.
Hearing Jiang Li's words, Chu Ninghan's lips corners slid down slightly.
She tiptoed lightly and landed lightly in the yard, then took two steps forward.
Jiang Li stopped him with a shout, "Your Majesty, please stop. What is your purpose in coming here tonight?"
"Jiang Li, you knew that Xiao Ao and Jiang Tan would poison Zhao Zhao, and you waited until she was poisoned before saving her. Are you trying to repay a favor?"
Chu Ninghan's voice was colder than the moonlight. If he could be seen, his eyes would have shown that he wanted to kill Jiang Li.
When it comes down to it today, it was Jiang Tan who wanted to kill Jiang Li, but the emperor used Jiang Tan to get rid of Chu Mingzhao.
Jiang Li had anticipated this, but he just watched from the sidelines, allowed the situation to develop, and finally came to the rescue.
The kindness is real, but it is also true that Jiang Li is seeking repayment for the favor!
Even if Jiang Li is really Chu Mingzhao's biological mother, what's the point in acknowledging a mother like her who will only bring danger to the child, is full of calculations, and only has interests in her eyes?
Jiang Li almost laughed at Chu Ning's cold response, and she retorted.
"Instead of blaming me for involving the princess, Your Majesty should think carefully about why the princess was targeted by the emperor!"
As long as the Prince Yong's Mansion was useful, Chu Ninghan did not give up power, nor was he blind, and did not retreat again and again in the confrontation with the emperor.
Even if Jiang Tan and the emperor had ten times the courage, they would never blatantly choose to murder Chu Mingzhao to frame her!
Especially with the current status of Prince Yong's Mansion, its prestige among the people exceeds that of the emperor, but the emperor is foolish and incompetent, and only wants to hold power alone and raze Prince Yong's Mansion.
"Do you think giving in can buy you peace?"
Jiang Li stared at Chu Ninghan coldly and said in a loud voice, "Weakness is a sin!"
In his previous life, Chu Ninghan retired all his life, but in the end, the emperor even had the idea of arranging Chu Mingzhao's marriage.
In their position, not fighting means courting their own destruction.
How could Chu Ninghan have the nerve to blame her?
"And Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about using me for revenge. I have absolutely no intention of using the princess to get close to the palace, and I have no intention of getting close to the princess."
Chu Ninghan's expression turned visibly worse. Although what Jiang Li said was not entirely correct, it did make some sense.
But, don’t retreat?
It's not that easy.
After Jiang Li ridiculed Chu Ninghan for a while, his anger subsided a little, but his tone was still sharp.
"Your Majesty, you should learn how to educate a princess!"
Chu Mingzhao was born as Chu Ninghan's son. He had a noble birth, but he was also faced with many dangers.
Especially this father, he doesn’t know how to raise a child.
Jiang Li has not forgotten what Chu Mingzhao said when he came to see her that night, that Chu Ninghan didn't care about her at all, and she was all alone in the mansion.
"Your Majesty, please reflect on why the princess repeatedly chooses to get close to me, a person she has only met a few times? She even wants me to be her mother!"
Chu Mingzhao didn't have a mother, and her father was lukewarm and looked dead all day long, so it was normal for him to come to her, get close to her, and treat her as his mother.
Chu Ninghan was so stunned by Jiang Li's words that he didn't say a word for a long time. He just stared at Jiang Li with his eyes covered by a white scarf, and his aura became more and more intimidating.
Jiang Li just thought that he was being stepped on and felt guilty.
"If your Highness wants to do this, you can leave now."
It delayed her time in dealing with the two beggars.
"You are eloquent, but that can't cover up the fact that you took advantage of Zhao Zhao to get a favor."
Chu Ninghan finally spoke, his tone still cold.
"Jiang Tan sent the two of them to discredit you and spread the news. Tomorrow morning, the news will spread all over the capital that you and the beggar committed obscene and blasphemous acts in the Flower God Temple."
Jiang Li is indeed very capable, but compared to the power of the royal family, she is still inferior.
Especially this calculation, she did not expect it.
Chu Ninghan didn't hear Jiang Li's reaction. She wasn't even breathing properly and seemed not to care about the matter at all.
The corners of his lips slid down further, "Even if you are the reincarnation of a true god tomorrow, you will not be able to escape death."
"so what?"
Jiang Li asked back, "Your Majesty, are you here out of mercy to save me?"
She probably understood Chu Ninghan's purpose. This was just another exchange of interests.
The Yong Palace was afraid that she would use her kindness to gain control over Chu Mingzhao and exploit the Yong Palace again and again.
Therefore, Chu Ninghan must repay her tonight for saving Chu Mingzhao's life.
Jiang Li almost laughed out loud, she no longer felt angry at all.
Like Chu Ninghan, she didn't want to have anything to do with Prince Yong's Mansion anymore.
If the palace repays the favor once and then draws a line in the sand, that would be like handing over a pillow when one is sleepy.
Chu Ninghan fell silent again. He really came to save Jiang Li.
There is a 90% chance that Jiang Li is Chu Mingzhao's biological mother. Jiang Li cannot die before Chu Mingzhao detoxifies.
Especially if they were defiled by someone, they would be put to death.
However, after hearing what Jiang Li said, he became the person who deliberately showed favor to Jiang Li and waited for the favor to be repaid.
Seeing Chu Ninghan's tense face, Jiang Li smiled and said, "Your Highness, I don't need the Prince Yong's Mansion to intervene. The Palace wants to draw a clear line with me and repay my kindness for saving the princess' life, so as to prevent me from asking for repayment in the future. It's very simple."
"what would you like?"
Jiang Li said bluntly, "I heard that the prince wiped out Medicine Valley last year. I need a list of all the people in Medicine Valley."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Just tell me the news about Medicine Valley and I will not interfere with Prince Yong's Mansion in the future."
She looked at Chu Ninghan expectantly, almost swearing to the heavens.
But after Chu Ninghan was silent for a while, he shook his head decisively.
Jiang Li's face suddenly darkened, and he only heard Chu Ning speak coldly.
"Compared to your promise, I believe in myself more, and Prince Yong's Mansion will not owe you a favor. How to repay is up to the Palace to decide."
He raised his hand, and the shadow guard hiding in the dark suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Moreover, he dragged the two beggars away as quickly as possible and cleaned up all traces of the Temple of the Goddess of Flowers.
Jiang Li's face was dark. It was too late and he couldn't stop it.
Chu Ninghan seemed to feel Jiang Li's sharp gaze. As he turned to leave, an emotionless voice floated over.
"All the rebels in Yaogu have been killed. No one is left alive."
This time, Jiang Li owes him.
However, this news might be too cruel for Jiang Li.
The child Jiang Li was looking for had died long ago.
The one who survived to the end was Chu Mingzhao.
