Dressed as a male insect, but suffering

Wu Yang sat beside him and listened quietly.

The bell for class rang, but Wu Yang remained indifferent.

She Guining raised the cup and took a sip of tea, then he sighed deeply: "Li Gui's life should have been smooth sailing if he wasn't obsessed with machinery."

"I wonder if you've ever heard of Pusher 3."

Wu Yang recalled that it seemed to be Li Gui’s early design, so he nodded.

She Guining sighed. When he mentioned Li Gui, he always liked to sigh.

"Thruster No. 3 was made by Li Si when he was seventeen years old. Contrary to the mainstream view, Thruster No. 3 is not the third generation of thrusters made by Li Si."

"In fact, the production process of the No. 3 thruster went very smoothly. The reason why it was called No. 3 was simply because it was made by Li Si on the 3rd."

"Of course, No. 3 is not perfect and has many shortcomings, but Li Si introduced some new modes when making it, which can increase the endurance of the thruster and reduce energy consumption."

"It's not very eye-catching, so Li Gui shared his design drawings." She Guining sighed again, and this time he put down the teacup.

"It was not until Wan Lan applied for a patent for the W-type thruster in their name in the same month that Li Gui discovered that his design had been plagiarized by his own bug."

At this point, She Guining stopped and explained to Wu Yang: "Wanlan is the Li family's military enterprise."

Wu Yang nodded.

She Guining continued, "At that time, Li Gui and the Li family had a very ugly quarrel."

"You should be able to understand. After all, Li Gui at that time was about the same age as you are now. As a little bug, he always has a tough temper."

"You may think that Li Gui is the crown prince and the most promising male cub in the Li family. Maybe this farce will end up in Li Gui's favor, right?" She Guining asked Wu Yang.

Wu Yang frowned, he didn't think so.

She Guining did not give Wu Yang a chance to speak and continued, "But that is not the case."

“It was on that day that Li Gui first realized how isolated and helpless he was in Ziweiyuan.”

"At that time, Li Gui's two biggest supports were the Li family and the Insect King."

"The Li family and Li Gui are connected by blood. Although the Insect Emperor and Li Gui are not related by blood, Li Gui was raised by the Insect Emperor himself. The grace of raising someone is no less than the grace of giving birth to them. On the surface, the Li family and the Insect Emperor both have a strong connection with Li Gui."

"However, this dispute was originally instigated by the Li family. The Insect King also felt that Li Gui, as his successor, did not need to have any skills other than political tactics."

"So Li Gui ran away. That was the first time Li Gui ran away from home." At this point, She Guining smiled, and there was something...kind in her smile. This description is probably not accurate, it might be more like 'aunt's smile'.

"I don't know what happened, but Li Gui ran into the star pirate group, where he met your female father." She Guining said, "Your female father was brought into Ziweiyuan by your male father. They are of similar age and are very much in love."

They were so loving that Jiang Jieyue cheated on Li Gui?

Wu Yang moved his lips, but ultimately did not say the words.

The smile on She Guining's face faded, and he sighed again: "Actually, now that I think about it, the incident on No. 3 was probably a joint effort by the Insect King and the Li family to castrate Li Gui."

"The position of the Insect Emperor is too special. The Insect Emperor comes from one of the five great families, but cannot be dependent on them. In order to maintain the balance of the five great families, the Crown Prince will leave his family at a very young age and be locked up in the palace so that he can be better separated from his original family."

"The Insect Emperor cannot have any power. Although he has great power, it must be granted by the five great families. The five great families are willing to support an empty shell with power, but that empty shell cannot have its own thoughts. He can be foolish but cannot have ideals. He can be incompetent but cannot have ambitions."

"Normally, the Insect King would choose the most gentle male insect among all the crown princes as the next Insect King. Li Gui, who likes to tear down houses and tiles, should not be on the candidate list."

"But Li Gui is too special. When he was born and was diagnosed with the original double S, it was destined that his life as an insect would be a one-way street. He had no other choice but to become the Insect King."

After listening to this, Wu Yang was filled with mixed feelings.

I also understood why Jiang Jieyue wanted to hide his level.

If Wu Yang's level was a little higher, his situation might be the same as Li Si's at that time.

Being supported by the three forces of the Li family, the Insect King... and Jiang Jieyue, he has become a lone insect with a bright appearance.

Currently, Wu Yang does not know his true level. He has not taken any test. Jiang Jieyue should be the only one who knows his true level. If Wu Yang's level is generally high, Jiang Jieyue should not let Wu Yang hide his level.

Wu Yang had a bold guess. Could it be that... his level was the same as Li Gui's, and after Jiang Jieyue returned to Li Gui's home, he suddenly remembered Li Gui's past difficulties, so he hid his own level in a moment of thought?

Think about it, Li Gui lived in Ziweiyuan for at least 17 years, and he should have had feelings for the Insect King. Even so, he was still backstabbed.

Think about it carefully, does the Li family really need a patent for a pusher? How is that possible? They made a special dumpling of the pusher just for Li Gui's jealousy.

In order to get a law-abiding heir, the Insect King did not hesitate to destroy the friendship between him and Li Si for so many years, just to make Li Si understand that only by being obedient can he be a good Insect King.

The Insect Emperor is nominally the Insect Emperor of the Empire, but in reality, he is just a puppet insect of the five major families.

Keep to yourself...

Compare him with Wu Yang now, who is wandering outside and has no emotional basis with these aristocratic families or the Insect King. Moreover, his relationship with the Li family is not as deep as that between Li Gui and the Li family. Wu Yang's surname is not even Li.

Now Wu Yang remembered Bie Zai's words, "You need Jiang Jieyue's protection in Ziweiyuan." It seems that he was not exaggerating.

if it is like this.

While Wu Yang was trying to kill Jiang Yan, he also had to find a way out for himself, at least he had to be able to run away like Li Gui.

Otherwise, after Jiang Yan died, the only male insect Jiang Jieyue could use would be Wu Yang. At that time, it would be difficult to escape.

Wu Yang has not done enough development of Ziweiyuan yet, and he doesn't want to understand this complex power structure at all.

Before, Wu Yang thought he could stay out of it, but Ziweiyuan’s power structure was like a whirlpool, and the slightest connection would suck him in.

Wu Yang has been back at Ziweiyuan for quite a while, and hasn't encountered any bad things yet. This is probably because Jiang Jieyue is there to protect him.

But Jiang Jieyue is unreliable with Wu Yang, after all, there is Jiang Yan between the two insects.

The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became... Tsk! How did Li Gui escape in the first place?

Could it be that there is an underground passage in the house? Could it be that he drove Qihuan directly out?
