Chapter 795: Forcing Palace Huīyǔ

    

't inquire further, he speaks the truth."Su Jinpa sighed.She and Hou Yushu were just acquaintances, knowing each other only because she found him to be somewhat talented. That was the extent of it.But...Chapter 795: Forcing Palace Huiyu

Li Yinhu's persistence made Li Chen feel suspicious.

He narrowed his eyes, looking at Li Yinhǔ. He sensed that this little punk's insistence must have a purpose.

But what could Li Yinhu possibly have in mind by seeing Zhao Qinglan, or perhaps the emperor

Li Chen was not a god, nor did he have mind reading abilities. In the blink of an eye, he thought of many possibilities, but each one was denied. In the end, he still couldn't figure out why Li Yinhu insisted on seeing Zhao Qinglan and the emperor.

Since he couldn't figure out why Li Yinhu insisted on seeing the emperor, Li Chen decided...

"This palace is still busy, you should go back first."

Li Chen's one sentence sent Li Yinhu's heart plummeting to the bottom.

In his view, the emperor was most likely in trouble, otherwise there would be no reason for the prince to forcibly obstruct him from seeing the emperor.

Gritting his teeth, Li Yinhu still wanted to say something.

But when he looked up, all he saw was Li Chen's face, devoid of any emotion.

"Is there something else, King Zhao"

That icy stare sent chills down Li Yinhu's spine, stopping the words he was about to say.

He lowered his head and avoided looking at Li Chen, saying: "Your Majesty, there's nothing else."

Then you should go back and rest earlier.

"My brother... I will take my leave."

Though filled with many regrets, Li Yinhu still left the Hall of Studying Governance honestly.

As soon as he left, Li Chen immediately summoned the Three Treasures.

"Have you heard any news from Xu Wei" Li Chen asked.

Sān Bǎo shook his head and said, "There's nothing new recently."

Li Chen frowned slightly and said, "Go contact Xu Wei and see if there have been any recent developments with King Zhao. Don't let go of any clues, no matter how small. If anything is even slightly different from the norm, report it immediately."

"This servant will go and do it now," said the three treasures bowing.

After Sānbǎo left, Lǐ Chén still felt uneasy.

"Gong Huiyu."

Li Chen called out, then...there was no response.

Li Chen's face darkened.

"Come here! Clean out the East Palace and bring me all the written records. I want them burned."

The moment the words left his lips, Wan Jiaojiao and Gong Huiyu's scorching gazes immediately landed on Li Chen.

Waving his hand to dismiss the bewildered eunuch, Li Chen smiled at Gong Huiyu and said, "You can keep the storybook if you want, but do something for this palace."

Gong Huiyu's extremely beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her exquisitely beautiful face was written with three words: unwilling.

The more she resisted, the more Li Chen wanted to force her to do things.

"How did it go Did you make a deal"

Gong Huiyu looked at the script in her hand, her eyes full of reluctance. She then glanced at Li Chen and finally let out a cold snort.

Although his attitude wasn't great, he eventually agreed.

Li Chen didn't care about her attitude, and said with a smile: "It's easy for you. These two days, help me keep an eye on Li Yinhu, especially who he met, what he said, and what he did. I want to know his every move."

Isn't he already having an undercover agent planted beside him

Having been by Li Chen's side for so long, Gong Huiyu still knew something about his methods.

For example, Li Chen had already sent an undercover agent to infiltrate Li Yinhu's circle long ago, and he knew all of Li Yinhu's actions like the back of his hand.

How can I possibly fight this

It was a foolish decision to have cooperated with Li Yinhǔ before, Palace Huiyu thought. Now that Li Chen had asked her to keep tabs on Li Yinhǔ’s every move, it seemed like overkill.

But since Li Chen said so, Gong Huiyu's personality wouldn't refute him.

A few days of business travel is a worthwhile trade-off, in Gong Huiyu's opinion.

"Okay."nd the Crown Princess ranks only below the Empress. She represents the face of our empire. If a woman who disregards her role as a wife becomes the Crown Princess, wouldn't it shame our ancestors and...
