Chapter 749: Brutal Tactics
The two continued to sit in the pavilion, drinking wine, flipping through the booklet, and waiting for news from Li Ningcui and Zhu Yijing.

Chu Liexuan looked at it and shook his head.

Chu Zhiyuan didn't say much, and quickly looked through the messages, while also not forgetting to practice.

Even though he couldn't reach the Spirit Transformation Realm before entering the Phoenix Dynasty, he still didn't give up.

The higher your cultivation level can be, the better. Maybe you can become a Venerable at the last moment.

Chu Liexuan sensed that he was practicing, but he didn't care and understood Chu Zhiyuan's approach.

Knowing that Chu Zhiyuan was under great pressure, he had no choice but to practice every minute.

Of course, it was also because of this that he made such rapid progress.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhu Yijing and Li Ningcui appeared in front of them again.

This time, what they handed over was not a booklet, but pages of plain paper.

Chu Zhiyuan and Chu Liexuan looked at the dozen or so pieces of plain paper respectively.

Chu Liexuan sighed: "Qianji Tower is more powerful than I thought!"

There was a lot of news about Chu Lieyang, one piece after another, and it was quite varied.

From his eating habits, to his daily routine, to his interpersonal relationships, to his hobbies, and some private matters.

Seeing these, one can see Chu Lieyang clearly, more clearly than usual.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Qianji Tower will be a good assistant to you, second brother."

"Well, I don't have any use for Qianji Tower."

"Second brother, do you think you will continue to live an ordinary and uneventful life like this?"

"I don't have any ambitions anyway, so it's fine to just live an ordinary life like this."

"Ha ha……"

"Ninth brother, what's that expression on your face?"

"Second brother, you can fool yourself, but you can't fool everyone else, especially eldest brother, and third and fourth brothers. Everyone likes the throne."

"Ninth brother!"

"You are all so secretive and don't dare to mention these two words, but in fact you are thinking about them all the time in your heart. You are so hypocritical!"

"Ninth brother, stop talking nonsense!" Chu Liexuan shook his head: "The throne will belong to my eldest brother."

"The premise is that Big Brother doesn't make any mistakes or go wrong. What if something happens to him like I did?"

"Big brother is different from you. Big brother is very cautious and will never take risks easily."

"That depends on the luck of the eldest brother... Never mind, let's talk about the third brother."

"Have you found a way to deal with him?"

"Let's start with that woman."

"Use a woman to deal with him? I thought he was a lovelorn man, but..." Chu Liexuan shook his head: "You deceived me so badly, you should have deceived everyone!"

"Third brother has a woman outside, this is nothing, right?"

The eldest prince to the fourth prince have already reached the age to get married, and only the third prince has not yet married.

As a prince, it is very common to keep a woman outside.

Chu Liexuan snorted, "But he acts as if he won't marry anyone but the twelfth princess!"

He said angrily: "You really thought that your love was so infatuated that it moved heaven and earth, but who knew that you were supporting another woman! How can this be called infatuation? It's all an act!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Second brother, you hit the nail on the head. Using the name of infatuation to seek personal gain, this is Third brother."

He turned his head and looked at Zhu Yijing and Li Ningcui: "Is there any news about this woman?"

The two women hesitated and shook their heads.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then let's check her out and get a portrait first."

"Yes!" The two women nodded solemnly.

Li Ningcui hurried out.

"How can we make a fuss about this woman? Let the censors impeach her?"

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Second brother, why do you like to use the Imperial Censor so much?"

"The Imperial Censor is more useful."

“If it can be avoided from involving the court, then don’t involve it in the court.” Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

"Without the Imperial Censor's advice..." Chu Liexuan frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer: "Then what other solution is there?"

He couldn't think of what he could do with this woman. He couldn't capture her and use her to threaten the Third Prince.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "First, we need to see how high this woman's status is in Third Brother's heart, and then we can see what means we should use."

“What if the status is high?”

"Then I will ask my father to grant her a birthright and let her enter the prince's mansion as a concubine." "What if the status is not high enough?"

"Then spread it out, let everyone know that the third brother is a playboy, on the one hand he is in love with the twelfth princess, stealing his brother's woman, and on the other hand he has a woman to keep."

Chu Liexuan laughed and said, "The latter move is quite vicious, what's the use of the former move?"

"He married a concubine, so how can he be qualified to be a royal consort?" Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Could it be that the twelfth princess should be allowed to marry later and become the principal wife?"

He shook his head and said, "Her Highness the Twelfth Princess is extremely proud and arrogant. How could she possibly accept it?"

"...Hey, that's true." Chu Liexuan nodded quickly: "If this woman has a low status in his heart, he can also use this trick."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Third brother will directly give up this woman and send her away. He will not marry her."

"...Old Nine, I've never seen you have such twisted intestines before."

"Brother, people will change," Chu Zhiyuan said, "I was forced to do this."

"Oh..." Chu Liexuan sighed and nodded.

He felt very sorry for Chu Zhiyuan and thought it was too miserable. He would definitely not be able to bear it if it were him.

While the two were discussing, Li Ningcui appeared again.

"Your Highness, in a hurry, we have first obtained her portrait, and the rest of the information is being collected."

Chu Zhiyuan took a scroll and was stunned after opening it.

"What's the matter?" Chu Liexuan came over and looked at the portrait.

The figure above is a woman in palace dress, with a beautiful appearance and a cool and dignified temperament.

Chu Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up at Li Ningcui: "Are you sure?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will never be wrong." Li Ningcui said.

Chu Zhiyuan smelled the scent of ink from the painting and knew it was just painted.

The painting is of superb skill, and the woman in the painting is full of energy and spirit, and looks lifelike before your eyes.

Chu Liexuan asked hurriedly: "What's going on?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This woman looks 50% like the twelfth princess. It seems that we have wronged our third brother. He is really an infatuated one."

"Looks like the twelfth princess?" Chu Liexuan said in surprise: "Third brother, this..."

He found it incomprehensible.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Second brother, then please ask the emperor to give this girl a name."

"Leave it to me!" Chu Liexuan laughed and said, "Since you have her, Third Brother, just give up!"

He then smiled and said, "Do you think my third brother will have a falling out with me?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and smiled: "It depends on Third Brother's mind."

"Haha..." Chu Liexuan laughed happily, imagining Chu Lieyang's angry look.

……

The next morning, Chu Zhiyuan arrived at Zhenwu Academy much later than usual.

Everyone has arrived in the cave, and the atmosphere is so depressing that it seems to be frozen.

Chu Zhiyuan took a glance, then sat down beside him, closed his eyes and began to practice.

The cave remained silent.

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes and pretended not to know the gaze of the Third Prince Chu Lieyang.

Chu Lieyang was well-informed and Chu Liexuan acted quickly.

Judging from Chu Liexuan's expression, he must have achieved his goal.

He didn't want to pay attention to it for the time being, as he didn't want to delay his practice.

These are just minor tips; cultivation is the fundamental.

In silence, everyone concentrated on their practice.

At noon, Chu Zhiyuan left directly and met Chu Honglin at Qingfeng Cliff.

From this, we know that Chu Liexuan went directly to the emperor last night and told him about the third prince Chu Lieyang.

The emperor was furious.

He summoned Chu Lieyang directly and scolded him angrily.

He was called lustful, extremely stupid, and a piece of rotten wood.

These words almost destroyed Chu Lieyang's possibility of succession.

How could the court officials support him when the emperor looked down upon him like that?
