Chapter 47 Helping the Princess "Heal" at Night

Chen Pingping, who was in Chen Garden, rushed to the palace as fast as lightning upon hearing the news.

He was pushed in a wheelchair to the presence of Emperor Qing.

At that time, Emperor Qing was staring at a memorial with a frown on his face, his expression solemn.

When Chen Pingping's figure came into view, he suddenly became furious, threw the memorial in his hand to the ground, and said sternly:

"Chen Pingping, how exactly do you perform your duties as the president of the Supervisory Commission?!"

"The Supervisory Council is responsible for supervising all officials. Why did you not know anything about the affair between that rebellious son and the two princes?!"

"If it weren't for the extraordinary strength of the Sixth Brother, he would have died at the hands of that rebellious son!"

"In this case, wouldn't it mean that I have lost three sons in one day?"

Although his words clearly pointed out that the prince was colluding with Northern Qi, between the lines he was actually implying that Li Chengyun was hiding the truth and that the Inspection Office was completely unaware of it.

Chen Pingping has always been able to see through Emperor Qing's thoughts, and as soon as he heard it, he already understood the implication of his words.

So, he immediately bowed and confessed his guilt:
"I am guilty. The Inspection Office has indeed been lax recently. When I return, I will give you a strict reprimand to set things right."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will personally arrange the matter this time and do my best to investigate the matter. I will then report to Your Majesty in detail."

After saying this, Chen Pingping bent over in his wheelchair and waited.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing's expression softened slightly:
"You are responsible for supervising all officials, including my son. You must not be negligent in the future!"

Chen Pingping bowed his head slightly and responded respectfully:

"I understand. I will definitely send more people and do my best to supervise all officials for Your Majesty."

Both of them mentioned supervising all officials, but in fact, they were both concerned about the supervisor Li Chengyun.

Emperor Qing gave a few more casual instructions, and Chen Pingping slowly left the palace in a wheelchair.

On the way back, Chen Pingping's eyes were deep.

In fact, he had already begun secretly investigating Li Chengyun since the last time he showed his strength.

However, to this day, he has not been able to find out where Li Chengyun learned such superb martial arts.

He was even more puzzled as to where the great groom named Huang who was standing next to him came from.

Chen Pingping was certain that there had never been such a groom named Huang around Li Chengyun before.

Not to mention that he is a grand master.

Even in the entire Kyoto, there is no trace of this person.

This Grandmaster Huang seemed to have appeared out of thin air from between the cracks in the rocks.

This aroused Chen Pingping's strong interest, so she decided to find an opportunity to meet Li Chengyun in person.

……

Night falls.

Inside the eldest princess’ residence.

Li Chengyun took advantage of the moonlight and stepped into the eldest princess's boudoir.

When Li Yunrui heard the noise, he was obviously prepared and immediately ordered everyone around him to retreat.

At this moment, Li Chengyun and the eldest princess were the only ones left in the room.

Li Chengyun was not polite and sat down next to Li Yunrui.

The princess didn't care and whispered softly:
"Chengyun, what happened today was really unexpected and extremely dangerous."

"After Li Chengqian told me everything, I wanted to find you right away, but I was a step too late."

"Otherwise, you would have had a chance to avoid this trap and not have to kill him yourself."

"Now that you have killed Li Chengqian, it is bound to arouse the suspicion of His Majesty."

"My brother, the emperor, hates people being out of his control, especially a son like you, so you need to be careful."

"He has an extremely cold temper and will never consider the relationship between father and son. He will do anything to achieve his goal. You must be on guard."

Li Chengyun nodded slightly.

He knew what the princess said even if she didn't say it.

In other words, to some extent, he understands Emperor Qing better than Emperor Qing himself.

After all, Emperor Qing had never read the original novel or watched the TV series, but he was already familiar with everything.

Looking at the worried-looking princess in front of him, his mood could not help but change subtly. Today outside the city, he had never expected that the princess would bring her own forces to rescue him, which was a very risky move.

The fact that Li Yunrui was willing to take this risk showed that he was firm in his stance and on his side.

This made him slightly change his attitude towards the eldest princess.

He noticed that the eldest princess still looked pale, and his heart moved.

Li Chengyun pondered for a moment and said:
"Aunt, I see that your injuries have not healed yet. Why don't you let me use my true qi to help you heal. My true qi is quite effective in healing."

After these words were spoken, the eldest princess frowned at first, then relaxed, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

She stroked her hair and said softly:
"Then I'll take care of it."

Li Chengyun smiled slightly: "It's okay, it won't take much time."

The princess stood up, walked to the bed and sat down, motioning Li Chengyun to come forward:

"This bed is quite spacious, should it be suitable for healing?"

Li Chengyun looked at the big bed and nodded in agreement:

"That's enough. You don't need a big place to heal."

The two of them sat cross-legged facing each other on the bed, and Li Chengyun was about to perform his healing method.

The eldest princess suddenly became a little embarrassed and asked softly:

"Does this healing method require undressing to be more effective?"

Li Chengyun hesitated for a moment, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone:
"In theory, clothes may hinder the flow of Qi. Wearing clothes while healing may slow down the progress."

"However, I have never treated anyone else's injuries, so I don't know the specific circumstances."

The princess blushed slightly, raised her jade hand, and slowly took off her thin shirt:
"In that case, then take off your clothes. This may speed up your healing process and save you energy."

After saying this, she calmly took off her clothes one by one, leaving only a thin undershirt.

Seeing this, Li Chengyun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

If the princess's action was not an act, then it was a clear signal to him.

As she undressed, she sometimes revealed a coquettish look, like a little lamb tempting the big bad wolf, trying to get him to take the initiative.

Li Chengyun understood the princess's intention.

But will he get what he wants?
The eldest princess's attempt to induce him to take the initiative was simply wishful thinking.

Although he can take the initiative, his target is definitely not the eldest princess, she is not worthy of him.

I saw the eldest princess slowly taking off her clothes, the veil slipping off, revealing her beautiful body.

Li Chengyun remained indifferent and did not make any move.

The princess was extremely anxious and thought to herself:

"Doesn't this person often hang out in places of fireworks? Why is he so calm at this moment?"

She was sure that her behavior just now was enough to seduce most men in the world and make them rush into her arms.

However, Li Chengyun seemed unmoved, which made her feel sad and unwilling.

With her peerless beauty and graceful figure, how could she have ever encountered such cold treatment?

What's more, she has been so proactive this time, isn't it still not enough to impress him?

The thought of giving up flashed through her mind, but she quickly shook her head to dispel it.

Under the current situation, the princess has no choice but to rely on Li Chengyun.

However, she did not have many chips in her hand, and the inner treasury was no longer her support.

Although our common enemy, Emperor Qing, can be considered a bargaining chip, its weight is ultimately limited.

So, she came up with an idea to offer herself as a bargaining chip to Li Chengyun.

Add to that the bargaining chip of jointly dealing with Emperor Qing, it should be barely enough.

Therefore, she must go to Wushan with Li Chengyun tonight to make love.

Whatever means are used, the goal must be achieved.
