[Do you have something to say? Should I avoid it? ]

Thinking of this, Shang Tingli was about to stand up, but her hand on the armrest of the chair was held down by a big hand. She looked at Ke Xin in confusion.

【Hmm? What is this for? 】

Ke Xin pretended not to know and said to Ke Rui, "Brother Lingzhou, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Ke Rui glanced at Shang Tingli.

"She will be my Crown Prince's Consort for the rest of her life. Brother Lingzhou, is there anything you have to worry about?" Ke Xin curled his lips with a hint of mockery, but it was not directed at Shang Tingli, but at the Queen Mother's decree.

Ke Rui understood.

As he said, no matter what the future holds, his Crown Princess cannot be changed. And as husband and wife are one, the Crown Princess of Prince Ren in front of him will never rush to seek death.

After figuring it out, he stopped worrying about it. Ke Rui narrowed his eyes and said, "Someone is targeting you and me. What do you think, Xingchen?"

[You asked the Fourth Prince's lackey what he thought? Second Prince, aren't you asking a shrimp how to catch a big fish? ]

Shang Tingli thought it was funny and wanted to laugh out loud, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

"..."How did he become the Fourth Prince's lackey?

Ke Xin's face changed slightly, and he actually regretted letting the person stay. He didn't hear any useful information, as he was scolded every time.

"Brother Lingzhou, you must be joking. Why would anyone target me?" Ke Xin said.

Ke Rui raised his eyelids and glanced at him dimly: "Using Xiaoliu to harm Xiaowu, isn't this targeting you?"

[The Second Prince has good eyesight, and he is indeed targeting the Crown Prince. If it weren't for Ke Xiaowu, Zhao Xiaoliu might not have been killed, but he has a cousin, the Second Prince, above him, so he can't escape. This way, it just makes it easier for someone to kill two birds with one stone.]

Shang Tingli lowered his head, refused to listen to anything inappropriate, and when it was not his turn to speak, he focused on reducing his presence.

After a pause, Ke Xin smiled at Ke Rui and said, "Brother Lingzhou, you worry too much."

Ke Rui: “Oh?”

Ke Xin said: "My father is only a prince, and I am already a prince. My brothers are still young. Who would want to target a lazy prince like me? Even if they were targeting me, they wouldn't be so roundabout, right?"

The only thing missing is to say that there is only an heir to the royal throne in his family, not an heir to the imperial throne.

Shang Tingli looked up at him in surprise.

[Now it seems that he is not so stupid that he is beyond redemption. ]

Ke Xin: “…”

Ke Rui's face suddenly turned cold, and his brows were dark and gloomy. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with what he said.

Ke Xin added calmly, "The only one being targeted is you, Brother Lingzhou, and our Xiaowu is just an unlucky guy, an innocent innocent victim."

Ke Rui changed his expression, sighed softly, revealed a trace of helplessness, looked at him and said: "That being said, isn't it also affected?"

Ke Xin smiled.

Ke Rui said sincerely: "I believe Xingchen will not suffer this loss, right? Why don't we find the mouse together?"

[Are you going to win over the Fourth Prince's people directly? Your Highness is very courageous. Aren't you afraid that they will wipe you out with an "internal and external collaboration"? ]

Shang Tingli's eyes changed when he secretly observed Ke Rui. This prince is really skilled and bold.

Ke Xin's eyes twitched.

He really wasn't being wooed by Ke Rui. He just said, "Anyone who can target Brother Lingzhou must be someone I can't afford to offend. What can I do? I can only put my mind at rest. I just hope Brother Lingzhou gets what he wants."

[Ah? Is this still the silly prince I know? I don’t recognize him. I don’t recognize him.]

Shang Tingli was surprised, and then surprised again.

Ke Xin's hands were itching again and again.

Seeing that he had said so much, Ke Rui stopped talking and stood up to leave. "In that case, I will borrow Xingchen's good words."

"Brother Lingzhou, take care."

"Second Prince, take care."

The two watched him leave.

Wait until Ke Rui walks away.

Shang Tingli looked at Ke Xin curiously: "Does the prince really think that Xiaowu is just an innocent victim?"

Ke Xin nodded calmly: "What else?"

[No, that's not the case... No, it could be said that it was. But it wasn't Zhao Xiaoliu who implicated me, it was you who implicated me.]

Ke Xin's body stiffened slightly. Hearing this again, he still felt short of breath.

Yes, everything started because he surrendered to the Fourth Prince. But he didn't think he was wrong, he was just blind, and the Fourth Prince was ruthless.

In this life... Ke Xin's eyes darkened. It is only natural to pay back debts, and it is fair to pay with life for life.

[What else? The Second Prince doesn't know that you have surrendered to the Fourth Prince. If the Fourth Prince knew that the Second Prince was trying to win you over, he would definitely let you play along with the Second Prince and stab the Second Prince at the critical moment.]

[If you ask me, you are not smart enough. All is fair in war, but you don't understand.]

She just kept saying this in her heart, but on the surface she still respected him very much, with a warm smile on her face, and said very considerately: "No matter what, you still have to keep an eye on Xiaowu. He is still a child, and at this age he is the most playful. Don't let him grow up crooked."

Ke Xin had a blank expression on his face, but his heart was broken. What else could he do if he didn't curse him in his heart?

[If it grows crooked, it will cost you your life. The Fourth Prince's plan does not end here. 】

Ke Xin rubbed his forehead with a headache: "We should discipline him properly to prevent him from causing a disaster."

……

After Wenhui took Ke Yi away, she threw him into a small Buddhist temple and asked him to copy the "Book of Filial Piety".

Wenhui was really ruthless this time and wouldn't let Ke Yi leave the small Buddhist temple even for eating or sleeping.

Not only was Ke Yi not allowed to go out to play on his day off, he also had to copy books. Wen Hui had even asked for leave from the teacher on his behalf, and would let him leave the small Buddhist hall whenever he was willing to study hard.

After Shang Tingli found out, he ordered the small kitchen to prepare some mung bean cakes, mung bean water and other snacks to relieve the heat, and went to the small Buddhist temple to see Ke Yi.

As soon as he saw her, Ke Yi burst into tears and choked up, "Sister-in-law, help me."

Shang Tingli sighed when he heard this.

[Already rescuing. 】

"Wow... wuwuwu... hiccup——"

Ke Yi was eating mung bean cake while burping, and his tears kept falling like rain. His sobbing appearance made people suspect that he was going to choke to death.

"Studying is too hard. Ouch, I have a headache."

Shang Tingli looked at him with amusement: "Will you not have a headache if you lose money in the casino?"

Ke Yi: “…”

Shang Tingli said earnestly: "If a bird wants to fly high, it must flap its wings first. If a person wants to make progress, he must study first. How can we not learn?"

Ke Yi sniffed: "Wouldn't it be possible for me to soar high if I became a military commander?"

Shang Tingli raised his eyebrows: "Do you understand the art of war?"

Ke Yi was puzzled: "Isn't it enough if we can beat them?"

"Yeah, that makes sense." Shang Tingli nodded, chuckled, and asked, "But what if someone takes advantage of your illiteracy and steals your credit?"

Ke Yi frowned: "I am the fifth young master of Prince Ren's Mansion. Who dares to be so blind? If this is true, I will beat him to death. Humph——"

"…You should continue copying your book."

Shang Tingli stood up and left.

Ke Yi was dumbfounded: "Sister-in-law?"

Shang Tingli didn't respond or turn around.

[After all, I have let my temper grow. I should copy more books. ]

Ke Yi: “???”
