Chapter 27 No one can understand Li Chengyun

As for Fan Xian.

Although he was not as good at imagining as Li Chengze, he was also thinking deeply about the meaning of Li Chengyun's action at this moment.

He had just arrived in Kyoto and was still inexperienced in understanding the disputes and intrigues in the court.

However, he understood that the struggles in the temple were all caused by the word "interest".

The prince's hostility towards Li Chengyun and Fan Xian is simply to prevent Fan Xian from taking charge of the inner treasury and to prevent Li Chengyun from joining forces with the Fan family to form a new force.

This threatened the prince's position.

The appearance of the second prince was to seek more support and help at this opportunity.

As for Li Chengyun.

Fan Xian thought to himself that he absolutely did not think that Li Chengyun acted this way for Fan Sizhe.

Then, there is only one possibility left - Li Chengyun also intends to fight for power, and even has plans for the throne.

In this power struggle, gaining the recognition of Emperor Qing is undoubtedly a crucial link.

A light bulb suddenly lit up in Fan Xian's mind, and he suddenly realized.

Li Chengyun first openly provoked Guo Youzhi, showing his irreconcilable hatred with the prince's faction.

Then he defeated the prince's guards in the court, showing his powerful strength.

In the end, he even demonstrated his wisdom and courage by threatening the prince.

All of this was undoubtedly done to attract Emperor Qing's attention and to earn himself a chance to compete with the Crown Prince!
……

at the same time.

Within the palace.

Emperor Qing was sitting upright on the dragon throne, holding a jade cup in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's personal guards have surrounded the Kyoto Prefecture just now. However, they did not take any action, but hid in the dark instead."

"Your Highness the Sixth Prince and His Highness the Crown Prince left Kyoto Prefecture hand in hand and walked out."

When Emperor Qing heard the news, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He knew the habits of the Crown Prince's personal guards very well. Since they had surrounded Kyoto Prefecture, they must have their own intentions.

However, they did not act rashly, and the reason behind this is intriguing.

"It is wise for the Crown Prince's personal guards to stay outside and not attack." Emperor Qing pondered, "They know that Li Chengyun is in Kyoto Prefecture. If they force their way in, it will probably cause an uproar."

However, what puzzled Emperor Qing even more was that the Crown Prince actually left Kyoto Prefecture side by side with Li Chengyun.

This was beyond his expectations.

He knew the prince's character very well. He was always steady and cautious. How could he put himself in danger?

"Could it be that the Crown Prince was coerced by Li Chengyun to do this?" Emperor Qing had a trace of doubt in his heart. "Based on the cunningness that Li Chengyun has shown in recent days, he may be using the Crown Prince as a hostage to force the Royal Guards not to act rashly."

Emperor Qing never expected that Li Chengyun would choose such a strategy to ensure his own safety.

A sense of emotion welled up in his heart. It seemed that Li Chengyun was not a stupid person.

However, this is just the beginning.

Only when Li Chengyun is truly safe and sound will Emperor Qing recognize his qualifications as a whetstone.

At this moment, Emperor Qing decided to continue to wait and see.

And outside Kyoto Prefecture.

The wide streets were deserted.

Only Li Chengyun walked side by side with the prince.

The two figures stood out in the empty street.

Li Chengyun walked very close to the prince, almost touching him.

There was a smile on his face, as if he was very happy.

However, the prince seemed to be worried.

There was cold sweat on his palms and forehead, and although he forced a smile, it was a forced smile.

The two of them were so close that even the air seemed to freeze.

At such a close distance, even if the Royal Guards were nearby, they would not be able to come to the rescue in an instant.

The prince knew something was wrong, so he could only use subtle eyes and gestures to signal his guards to hide for the time being and wait for an opportunity to strike.

Li Chengyun did not seem to notice the prince's little movements. He took two steps casually and suddenly said:

"Third brother, it's a nice day today. It would be a pity to just hang around here."

"As far as I know, the beauties in Zuixianju have just woken up from their dreams. It is the moment when they are sleepy and full of charm."

"Third brother, you and I have never been to a brothel together. Why don't we go to Zuixianju together today to experience a different kind of atmosphere?"

Upon hearing this, the prince stopped in his tracks and groaned inwardly.

Li Chengyun's reputation as a playboy had long been known throughout the capital, and going to brothels was like a common occurrence for him.

However, he was a prince of noble status and had always been clean and self-disciplined, with no blemish on his reputation.

If he really followed Li Chengyun to Zuixianju today, wouldn't his reputation of being pure and innocent be ruined in an instant?
Therefore, he quickly put on a smile and waved his hand to decline:

"Sixth brother, I appreciate your kindness."

"But I have something important to do today, so I'm afraid I can't go with you."

The prince declined.

But how could Li Chengyun give up easily?

He knew that this was the critical moment to improve his performance. If he could get the news to spread throughout Kyoto, his plan would be halfway successful.

He glanced at the system mirror and saw that the progress bar was almost full, with only the last point left to complete.

This progress was just a piece of cake for him.

A trip to a brothel becomes dispensable.

At this moment, Li Chengyun changed his mind instantly. He decided to take the prince for a stroll around the area for a while.

……

In Kyoto Prefecture.

Everyone's face revealed anxiety.

Among them, Guo Youzhi regretted his decision the most, and felt overwhelmed with remorse.

Before that, he obeyed the prince's order and came to deal with Li Chengyun.

But now, if something unexpected happens to the prince, his Guo family will also face a devastating disaster!

Li Chengze arranged people to find out the situation outside.

It was learned that Li Chengyun and the prince were just strolling on the street and did not take any other actions.

He couldn't help but wonder, could his guess be wrong?
Li Chengyun did not intend to kidnap the prince, nor did he intend to leave Qing Kingdom?

However, since Li Chengyun had no intention of kidnapping the prince, why did he force the prince to go out with him?

Li Chengze was confused and puzzled about the intentions of his sixth brother.

Outside, the prince's personal guards were on high alert, and their numbers were large.

Even if Li Chengyun possessed the strength of the ninth rank, he was no match for the Royal Guards.

If Li Chengyun did not take the opportunity to leave at this time, once the prince found a chance, he would probably have no chance of escape, and his life might even be in danger.

Fan Xian heard the discussions of people around him and had a general understanding of the situation outside.

There was a glimmer of understanding in his eyes, as if everything was within his expectations.

Li Chengyun neither escaped nor let the prince go, but wandered around the streets with the prince. Wasn't this to show off to someone?
The prince has completely lost face this time.

Li Chengyun is also in danger. He has no way to escape from this encirclement unless he is determined to abandon everything in Qing Kingdom.

Li Chengyun now has only a glimmer of hope, and this hope lies in Emperor Qing.

He needs to demonstrate his own value in order to win the favor and attention of Emperor Qing.

Fan Xian felt that Li Chengyun was working hard for this.

As long as Emperor Qing is willing to lend a helping hand, Li Chengyun will be safe and sound, and can even live a safe future.

No one can shake his position unless he becomes a useless person.
