566 Was really making him speechless
In Prince Jin’s mansion
Liang Yujun was speechless when he heard his subordinate report Prince Yi’s recent movements.
“Liang Yulin is such an embarrassment to our royal family.”
He pursed his lips in disdain. “He chased a woman all the way from Heyang County to Northern City. This is what he is good at.”
It was as if he had never seen a woman before.
He didn’t expect his black-hearted brother to have such a day.
He also raised Xiao Baili and Xiao Hanyi as if they were his biological children, and he didn’t know what he was after.
Even if he couldn’t have his own children, wouldn’t it be better to adopt one from his relative who was close by blood?
He really couldn’t understand his younger brother’s thoughts.
If he liked a woman who had children, he would only feel disgusted.
It would be more appropriate that he finds a way to get rid of them.
How could he treat them like his own?
“Prince Yi has been single for so many years,” his trusted aide said with a smile. “He might be more concerned about the woman he suddenly likes.”
They did not expect that such a shrewd Prince Yi would become like a young man after meeting Xiao Hanzheng’s mother.
“But, Your Highness, you can make use of it. Mdm Kong can become Prince Yi’s weakness,” he said.
Tsk! Liang Yujun scoffed after some thought. “I refrain from making a fuss about women.”
His trusted aide was speechless.
He wondered who had planned for so many years in order to mess with his princess consort.
Liang Yujun glanced at his trusted aide. “And do you think Liang Yulin would care about this?”
His trusted aide was stunned. “Doesn’t Prince Yi care about Mdm Kong very much?”
As long as he cared, she could be useful.
Liang Yujun shook his head. “I’m not talking about that.”
“What I mean is that my little brother is very smart. Since he dares to show his love for Mdm Kong, he is not afraid that I will use Mdm Kong as a raft.
“He will definitely protect Mdm Kong.
“And Xiao Hanzheng is not easy to deal with.
“He has arranged for highly skilled secret guards to protect Mdm Kong and his siblings.”
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to make a fuss about women, but he knew that it wouldn’t be easy to mess with Mdm Kong.
The trusted assistant roughly understood. “That’s a pity.”
In the past, Prince Yi couldn’t find a weakness to attack at all.
His weakness was the empress dowager and the emperor in the palace, and he couldn’t target them.
Now that he finally had Mdm Kong, it would be a pity if he didn’t make use of her.
Liang Yujun clenched his fist to his lips and coughed lightly. “Of course, if there’s a chance, we can also make use of it.”
The trusted aide was speechless.
His Highness was actually so two-faced.
“Yes!” Nevertheless, His Highness always took actions as he pleased, and he was used to it.
“Is there anything else?” Liang Yujun asked, changing the topic.
The trusted aide thought for a moment.
“Oh right, Mdm Tu is inviting Shi Qingluo to admire the flowers tomorrow.”
“I’ve checked, and Mdm Ruan is behind this.
“Tomorrow, Mdm Tu will definitely target Shi Qingluo and make her embarrass herself.
“She would even pull some dirty tricks.”
“Your Highness, should we interfere?” he asked again.
At the mention of Mdm Ruan, Liang Yujun’s eyes were filled with disgust.
That woman couldn’t stand the change in her status and life, so she came to his residence a few times to ask him for help, but he didn’t meet her.
He also knew that Mdm Ruan and her daughter had spent a lot of money to hire assassins to kill Shi Qingluo, but the assassins kept the money instead.
Because she didn’t have the identity of the princess consort, when she and her daughter went to look for trouble, they were threatened by the assassin organization and thrown out.
She was simply too stupid, so stupid that he couldn’t look at her directly.
Now, she actually wanted to play the devil again.
He thought for a moment and rubbed his chin. “Don’t worry about it. I’d like to see how Shi Qingluo will deal with this.”
Many of the madams from the influential families in Northern City definitely looked down on Shi Qingluo’s status as a farmer’s daughter.
Hence, if Shi Qingluo wanted to expand her social circle with the ladies in Northern City, she would have to rely on herself.
He wanted to win Shi Qingluo to his side, but he was also on guard.
He would not be so kind as to take the initiative to help her.
Of course, if Shi Qingluo couldn’t handle it and came to him for help, he would still help her.
After all, it was worth it to use this to exchange a favor and for her to help him think of some golden ideas.
Therefore, he hoped that Mdm Wu could help him.
Mdm Wu was very scheming and also very good at putting on a front.
She was not comparable to the arrogant Mdm Ruan.
“Pay more attention to tomorrow’s banquet. Remember to report to me tonight,” he said with a rare hint of interest.
His trusted assistant nodded his head respectfully. “Yes!”
The next day, Shi Qingluo did not wear a palace dress meant for princesses to attend the banquet.
Instead, she dressed up fresh and clean like what she usually did.
She wore a light yellow dress, and her hair was tied into a simple bun.
Shi Qingluo and Xiao Baili’s names were written on the invitation.
So, Shi Qingluo brought Xiao Baili, who was also dressed in a similarly refreshing manner, to the banquet.
Xi Rong happened to be free, so even though she didn’t receive an invitation, she went along to join in the fun.
If this happened in the past, she would definitely be afraid that her good friend would be bullied, so she went to be a backer.
But now that she knew that her good friend was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, he wasn’t worried at all that Shi Qingluo would be at a disadvantage.
Therefore, she was purely there to watch a good show.
Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao also wanted to watch the show, but it was a pity that the men of the Tu family didn’t invite any male guests this time.
Otherwise, they would have joined in as well.
Shi Qingluo brought Xiao Baili to the banquet.
Prince Yi also welcomed Prince Jin, who had come to visit him.
Liang Yulin wasn’t surprised to hear someone report that he had come to visit.
He requested for Prince Jin to be invited.
After Liang Yujun entered the main hall, Liang Yulin stood up and greeted him with a polite smile. “Imperial brother!”
Liang Yujun looked at Liang Yulin’s handsome, emotionless smile and forced out a fake smile. “Imperial brother, you’ve come to Northern City. Why didn’t you come to my royal residence to see me?”
Liang Yulin sat down and had someone serve Prince Jin tea before looking at him and saying righteously, “I was busy chasing my fiancée and didn’t have time.”
Liang Yujun was speechless.
Only his shameless younger brother could say such an embarrassing thing so confidently.
“Did you succeed in wooing your fiancée?” he asked with a smile.
Liang Yulin nodded his head seriously. “Soon.”
Kong Yuelan had already agreed to get along with him, and if they were suitable, they would get married.
Liang Yujun’s mouth twitched. “She’s just a woman. Do you have to go this far?”
“What kind of woman do you like?” Tell me more, and I’ll send you a bunch tomorrow.”
These words were clearly meant to disgust Prince Yi.
Liang Yulin’s smiling face darkened. “Brother, I don’t like what you’re saying. Yuelan is unique. How can she be compared to those ordinary women you find?
“I’m not like you. You clearly don’t like her, but you can still keep it by your side and support it for so many years. You can even tolerate being cheated on.”
He snorted again. “My Yuelan is the most beautiful. Don’t you use those women to taint her.”
Liang Yujun was speechless.
He had goosebumps all over.
He looked at Prince Yi in disbelief.
Was this really his black-hearted and cold brother?
Why did it look like he was possessed by something dirty?
Originally, he had come here today to test the waters, but now it seems that there wasn’t a need to test him anymore.
His younger brother was really making him speechless.
