Chapter 269 The New Dancer
Mu San sat down and said, "Sword Soul has already told me about your affairs. I want to hear your thoughts first!"
Li Xuemei summoned up her courage and said, "We would like to ask Mr. Mu to give us the sterilization soup! We don't want to be a burden to others!"
Jian Hun's face changed after hearing this. He looked at Li Xuelan, who also looked determined. He couldn't help but persuade her, "The sterilizing soup is extremely harmful to women's bodies. It may cause sterilization, irregular menstruation, and a series of other problems. It may even affect your life. We can think of other ways, such as running away or hiding."
Li Xuelan shook her head and sighed, "Escape? Where to escape? We sisters are now like birds in a cage, unable to escape! What about our brother...what else can we do? Instead of being used as a breeding tool, it is better to just stop them from thinking about it! Who will care about us?" After she finished speaking, tears began to flow.
Sword Soul felt a pain in his heart and blurted out: "I care!"
Seeing Li Xuelan's shocked expression, he quickly explained, "Since the Pavilion Master asked me to protect you...you, I certainly can't let anything happen to you!"
When Li Xuelan heard Jian Hun's words, her face turned slightly red. She bit her lips lightly and didn't say anything, but the sadness in her eyes did not dissipate.
Mu San raised his eyebrows, bent his fingers, and tapped them lightly on the table, while whispering, "Actually, I have a more appropriate method."
This made the other three people present suddenly brighten their eyes, and their faces showed joy. Especially Jianhun, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Mu, please explain this method in detail!"
Mu San raised the wine glass in his hand with a smile. Seeing this, Li Xuemei quickly picked up the wine pot and filled his glass.
After drinking a glass of wine, Mu San's eyes became fierce. He said directly: "Why haven't you thought about sterilizing Chu Chengli? As long as he can't have offspring, his position as the crown prince will be shaky! When the time comes, the Li family will lose power with him, and you sisters will have the chance to take revenge!"
The Li sisters were so frightened when they heard this that their faces turned pale. They stared at Mu San with their eyes wide open in disbelief, as if they had seen a madman.
Li Xuemei said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Mu, do you know what you are talking about? He is the crown prince of Dazhao Kingdom! If we dare to attack him, we will be committing the heinous crime of exterminating all nine generations of our clan!"
Mu San smiled disapprovingly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Don't worry, I have a way to make this happen perfectly. The imperial doctors will definitely not be able to find any problems. Even if a miracle doctor comes to treat him in the future, he will only diagnose that his body is damaged due to indulgence in sensual pleasures. Leave the matter of finding medicine to me, you don't have to worry about it!" After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it all.
Li Xuemei picked up the wine pot and filled the glass in front of Mu San, her eyes full of gratitude: "We sisters thank Mr. Mu and Brother Jianhun for their kindness!"
The next day, the sun was high in the sky and it was already noon. Li Jingshu finally slowly opened her eyes and woke up from her coma.
Chu Chengli sat quietly beside her bed, gently caressing her face, and whispered, "Shu Shu, I'm back."
When Li Jingshu heard this, her heart trembled violently. She knew that her Cheng Li was back.
Her voice was a little weak, but firm: "I know you said you would treat me well for the rest of your life."
Chu Chengli's eyes were red, tears slid down his cheeks, and he choked and said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. You suffered. It's all my fault. I never thought about it..."
Li Jingshu's eyes were filled with hatred: "It was Luo Lingyue! She was the one who had been trying to stop you from coming back! She was the one who killed our child! I will make her pay the price, I will tear her into pieces!"
Chu Chengli gnashed his teeth and said, "Shu Shu, don't worry! I will make sure that woman dies without a burial place! I will grind her bones and scatter her ashes with my own hands!"
The Sword Soul hiding in the dark was completely confused, not understanding what was going on. What were they talking about? Why did they suddenly mention Luo Lingyue? And it sounded like it was related to the child... The Sword Soul frowned, full of doubts.
Jian Hun listened silently, and after Chu Chengli and Li Jingshu finished speaking, he quietly left the room.
After returning, Jian Hun took out a piece of paper and wrote down word for word what Chu Chengli and Li Jingshu said.
After doing all this, Jian Hun immediately tied the letter to the pigeon's leg and let it fly away. He knew that this matter was very serious, and if he didn't tell the Pavilion Master in time, it might cause unnecessary trouble. So he had to pass the news to the Pavilion Master as soon as possible.
That afternoon, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was not dry. Suddenly, an elderly dancer came to the gate of the East Palace. She was dressed gorgeously and had a pretty face, but the traces of time still left marks on her face.
The guard looked at the strange woman in front of him and stopped her: "Who are you? What are you doing in the East Palace?"
The dancer smiled and replied, "The two concubines asked me to come and teach dancing!" After that, she took out a badge and showed it to the guard.
After the guards confirmed that everything was correct, they let the dancer go.
Two days later, Li Jingshu recovered quickly. On this day, Chu Chengli finally came to Li Xuemei's bedroom.
As soon as he entered the hall, he was attracted by the dancing girls in the hall. These girls had graceful figures and beautiful dancing styles, which made Chu Chengli a little fascinated.
When the song ended, Chu Chengli came back to his senses and raised his eyebrows to look at Li Xuemei: "Is this song and dance newly composed by my beloved concubine?"
Li Xuemei said softly: "This was arranged by Mu Jiaojiao, the most famous person in the capital. I get along well with her, so let her come to accompany me!" After that, a smile appeared on Li Xuemei's face, with a gentle light flashing in her eyes.
Mu Jiaojiao stepped forward and saluted, saying: "I, Mu Jiaojiao, pay my respects to the prince! May the prince live a thousand years! May the prince be blessed with great fortune and may all his wishes come true!" Her voice was melodious, as clear and melodious as a yellow oriole singing out of a valley.
Chu Chengli was a little surprised to see that the dancer was a middle-aged woman, but he nodded slightly to show his approval. He thought that the dancer was very good at talking, so he said, "Not bad! You can accompany this prince's beloved concubine to relieve her boredom, very good! Reward!" As he said that, he waved his hand and signaled the eunuchs around him to reward Mu Jiaojiao with some gold, silver and jewelry.
When Mu Jiaojiao heard Chu Chengli's words, she was secretly happy. She knew that she had successfully attracted the prince's attention and received a reward. So, she knelt down and thanked him, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
Li Xuemei personally filled a glass of wine for the prince, her movements were graceful and slow, her eyes never left the glass, as if she was waiting for something. She bent her little finger slightly, and gently shook the white powder from her little nail into the glass.
The white powder quickly blended with the wine and disappeared without a trace in an instant. It all happened so skillfully that no one noticed anything unusual.
There was a barely perceptible smile on Mu Jiaojiao's lips. She narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at Chu Chengli intently.
When she saw Chu Chengli pick up the wine glass and drink it without hesitation, a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.
The whole process seems normal, but it hides endless conspiracies and calculations. At this moment, Li Xuemei and Mu Jiaojiao seem to have successfully taken the first step of their plan...
