Chapter 117 Closed
Li Jinyuan hugged the girl's waist in time, and the soft touch from his palm made his eyes darken with a lingering feeling.
"Slower."
Jiang Li pushed his hand away, gathered her shawl around her, and walked towards the sink alone with shaking legs.
The man raised his eyebrows helplessly and followed closely.
"I'm holding you up."
"Need not."
Humph, now you know how to show your affection to me. Why didn’t you listen to her when you were going crazy and losing your mind last night?
"Pear..."
At this moment, Li Jinyuan really experienced how difficult it was to coax someone. After staying beside her for a long time, Jiang Li finally said a few words to him as if giving alms.
Seeing that the girl's mood had improved, the man had time to deal with the government affairs piled up in the study.
Jiang Li slowly approached the mattress and reached out to take down the sachet hanging on the head of the bed.
Her almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. She didn't believe that the shameful state she felt last night was a natural reaction of her body. It must be this little thing's fault...
I took a quick sniff, and the familiar fragrance from last night suddenly became stronger.
Jiang Li quickly took it a little further away. There was actually a scent of aphrodisiac in it...
No wonder... both she and Li Jinyuan were so out of control last night.
Thinking of the special instructions Qi Yu gave her when he gave her this little thing yesterday, Jiang Li felt a surge of anger rising to the top of her head.
Qi Yu! He must know the use of this little thing!
Jiang Li quickly disposed of the sachet and at the same time, locked Qi Yu in the dark room of her heart...
……
imperial study room,
The emperor sat on the dragon throne and reviewed memorials, while Li Junlin stood upright in the hall.
The man's face was unusually solemn, and he couldn't help but feel frightened by the silent emperor.
Did the Emperor know that the Third Prince was about to die?
That day in the Imperial Garden, he didn't reveal his true identity. Even if Jiang Li saw the whole process, she wouldn't have any evidence to produce...
"I heard that you went to the military camp?"
The emperor had put down the memorial at some point, and spoke faintly as he looked at Li Junlin with his dark eyes.
The man bowed respectfully and saluted with both hands.
"Yes, I heard that there were bandits causing trouble at the city gate junction, so I want to dispatch two teams of imperial guards to arrest them."
"It's just that... I don't have the tiger talisman, so they won't obey my orders."
The emperor was silent for a long time before he slammed the table and raised his voice.
"well done!"
"Without the Tiger Tally, you can't deploy the Imperial Guards! This is Beichen law, and it must not be violated lightly!"
Li Junlin's temple jumped violently, and he knelt on the ground the next second.
"I know I was wrong! I just heard that the Third Prince was unwell and had difficulty even getting out of bed, so I took the initiative to capture the bandits..."
The emperor took a long breath. His body would not allow him to get angry anymore. But at this moment, looking at Li Junlin's undisguised ambition and ruthlessness for this position, it was hard for him not to worry that his target would soon fall on him!
"As the Prince of Beichen, how can you be like those common people who believe everything they hear!"
"Your third brother is well and resting in the palace, how could he be so seriously injured that he can't get out of bed?!"
Li Junlin suddenly raised his head, and there was an unconcealable disbelief in his narrow and long phoenix eyes.
"impossible……"
He clearly saw it with his own eyes...
"The Third Prince has arrived!"
From the door came the loud and sharp announcement of Eunuch Su.
The next second, in front of Li Junlin's astonished eyes, a man in navy blue court robes walked in.
His steps were sharp and his expression was calm, there was no trace of the exhausted look he had seen in the Third Prince's Palace that day.
At this moment, Li Junlin didn't understand anything. This was a trap he had set, and he actually fell into it without any precautions!
"My son, I will meet my father."
"Get up."
The emperor waved his hand, and his angry expression softened a lot.
"Jun Lin, is this what you call terminally ill?"
The man kneeling on the ground had clenched his back teeth, slowly raised his head and looked at the man standing next to him.
Li Jinyuan also looked at him sideways. From a perspective that the emperor couldn't see, the man slowly raised his thin lips, his eyes full of coldness.
"When I caught a cold, my eldest brother came to see me. Perhaps he misunderstood me then."
Li Junlin could only force himself to swallow the breath, his jaw clenched.
"It was my negligence. I was too concerned and distracted, and I failed to pay attention and believed the rumors..."
The emperor sighed almost imperceptibly. His two sons were both excellent in their own ways.
But Li Junlin is too ambitious and too eager for quick success.
"It's good that you admit your mistakes, but if the emperor makes a mistake, he will be punished just like the common people."
"For your unauthorized deployment of the Imperial Guards, I must punish you."
Li Junlin was possessed, his forehead pressed against the ground, and his entire body was almost at the limit of endurance.
"Your Majesty, I acknowledge my guilt. Please punish me!"
"Considering that you are also worried and confused, I will punish you today with a small punishment and a big warning. I will sentence you to face the wall in the palace for half a month. You can come to court again after half a month."
"According to the decree..."
Li Junlin's face turned ashen as he faced the ground, his narrow and long phoenix eyes were covered with gloom, looking extremely ferocious.
I can’t go to court for half a month…
The winds of change in the court were so fast, and such a long period of time was enough for many unexpected events to happen...
Li Jinyuan, you're really scheming, risking your life...
……
The storm subsided for a moment, but I don’t know when it will come again.
But during this period, Jiang Li's life was indeed busy and comfortable, except that she often couldn't sleep well at night because of Li Jinyuan's constant disturbing.
"Are you going to Wujiang?"
Li Jinyuan's hand, which was adding more food to the girl, paused for a moment. His handsome face became tense and his expression became serious.
Jiang Li couldn't help laughing at his fearful look.
It’s not like she won’t come back…
The man opened and closed his thin lips, but could not utter a word.
Saying he wouldn't let her go? But that night he had clearly said he wouldn't restrict her freedom, nor would he interfere with her decision...
Could he agree to let her go? It was such a long distance, and she would definitely take many days to come back. Could he bear the days without her?
"Okay, but can you wait two days?"
Jiang Li's cheeks bulged as she held the spring roll, and she even stopped chewing.
"Why……"
"I'll finish the things on hand in the next two days, and then go with you."
Hearing the sound, Jiang Li widened her eyes and opened her red lips slightly.
"You go with me?"
"Ah."
Li Jinyuan seemed to have made up his mind and served the girl a bowl of soup without changing his expression.
"No need to go through so much trouble. Just let Qi Yu or Yan Yu follow me. There won't be any danger..."
The man reached out and pinched the girl's cheek, stopping her from saying anything.
"Be good, I can't rest assured."
