The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 741: Chapter 730: Intimidation (Part 3)

Huangfu Hongyi swallowed hard and said with difficulty, ”No... this isn’t something I should think about. It’s up to Father... Father to decide!” After saying this, he carefully made his way to the door, disregarding Prince Liang who was still inside, and bolted away.

Huangfu Yuxuan still smiled gently and looked at Prince Liang, whose legs were trembling, and said, ”Big Brother is right. Whether to establish a Princely Heir, and who to establish, is Father’s decision. I won’t interfere or care, and Father need not be afraid!”

Prince Liang was taken aback. He had put Li Fang in such a state and drawn so much blood with his sword right in front of him, staining the floor of the study. Now he says he won’t care or interfere?

Then why create such a scene?

As if seeing through his thoughts, Huangfu Yuxuan said, ”Who Father establishes as the Princely Heir should be Father’s own idea, and not influenced by anyone’s flattering words. That’s why I brought Li Fang here for Father to deal with. Father, what do you think? How should he be dealt with?”

How to deal with him?

Prince Liang didn’t dare glance at the bloody mess on the floor that was the now-hoarse Li Fang. This person was definitely done for. He cautiously asked, ”How about... execution?”

Huangfu Yuxuan clapped his hands and said, ”Father is indeed wise; this is how to deal with those who flatter and mislead their superiors!”

Li Fang on the ground was utterly desolate, unable to bear it any longer, and fainted.

Prince Liang called the guards to drag him away for disposal.

Huangfu Yuxuan tossed the sword to Hong Jie, resuming his genteel demeanor, politely saying, ”Father, then I won’t disturb you any longer.”

Saying this, he lifted his foot lightly and walked out.

Prince Liang was still somewhat dazed. So, he could establish Hongyi as the Princely Heir? Mr. Li’s words were quite right—Huangfu Yuxuan dared to be so fierce and uninhibited in his presence because the mansion’s hierarchy was unsettled, and ranks were undefined.

The things Huangfu Yuxuan did in private, although he hadn’t fully disclosed them, Prince Liang had some inkling. Power was something Huangfu Yuxuan didn’t want to relinquish. But as Mr. Li mentioned, there’s no precedent for a deposed Crown Prince being reinstated. How could his private maneuvers be concealed from the Emperor? If this continues, the Prince Liang Mansion would be weighed down by him.

Better to establish Hongyi, who only loves beauty and wine, to stabilize the Prince Liang Mansion!

Huangfu Yuxuan had reached the doorway, but turned around again. Prince Liang said, ”You... is there anything else?”

Huangfu Yuxuan smiled warmly and said, ”Nothing really, just wanted to remind Father of something.”

”Tell me!”

Huangfu Yuxuan said lightly, ”Father, I have no objection to who you establish as the Princely Heir. However, if you do establish Big Brother, later on, you’ll only have one legitimate son left!”

Is this called having no objection?

Prince Liang almost fainted. What did he mean by establishing Hongyi would leave him with only one legitimate son?

Was he saying he would leave Prince Liang Mansion?

No, this was a threat. Since it’s a threat, he certainly wouldn’t be the one to leave!

Prince Liang widened his eyes, pointed at him, and said, ”You... you...”

Huangfu Yuxuan chuckled softly as he walked out of the study, leaving the stunned and furious Prince Liang behind!

Prince Liang took out a memorial from his sleeve, gripped it tightly, his knuckles bulging with veins, and finally sighed resignedly, gritting his teeth as he tore it up.

There were quite a few carriages at the city gate, and the Capital City was bustling.

The Emperor’s birthday was approaching, and the Capital City was alive with festivity.

The vassal kings summoned back to the Capital were on their way. Today, Prince Xin arrived first, making the city gate quite lively. Xia Wenjin had Gu Heng park the carriage aside to wait.

Xia Wenjin looked through the narrow slit of the carriage curtain at the scene outside. Prince Xin’s procession extended over ten yards, with boxes, carriages, guards, luxuriously adorned carriages, gallant steeds, and spirited guards exuding a formidable presence.

The Emperor’s birthday—it’s almost here. She and Huangfu Jingchen caused so much chaos in the Jianghu for Huangfu Yuxuan. Would the tumult of the previous life still be the same?

Huangfu Jingchen noticed her silent expression and asked with concern, ”What’s wrong? Mood suddenly turned sour?”

Xia Wenjin smiled slightly and said, ”Not really, just suddenly feeling a bit of homesickness. Is this your Uncle Xin?”

Huangfu Jingchen nodded. Wenjin seemed to have something on her mind, but she wasn’t unhappy. If she wanted him to know, she would definitely tell him. Since she hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t ask. Anyway, regardless of what Wenjin found difficult, he would always be by her side!

He was a little happy inside since his father and mother were coming to the Capital City again.

He had previously told Xia Wanqing that he would visit Haotian Village with his parents, and yes, he should talk to Father and Mother about going to Haotian Village to propose marriage after Grandfather’s birthday. There should be no problem with that, right?
