Chapter 144 Li Chengze's way of solving the problem
Cancel the engagement?
Li Chengze, who was hiding under the bed, immediately understood what was going on after hearing Lin Ruo's words.
It seems that Emperor Qing is now going to start dealing with Fan Xian.
Especially since the prince was killed, once it was made public, it naturally could not be concealed.
Coupled with the Queen's threat of death, the Queen Mother's angry rebuke, and the instigation of the ministers in the court, even Emperor Qing did not dare to keep the secret any longer.
Before dealing with Fan Xian, the engagement must naturally be cancelled first.
However, Li Chengze originally thought that the cancellation of the engagement could be delayed for a few more days, but he did not expect it to happen so soon.
If this is the case, it is enough to show that Emperor Qing’s mentality has begun to collapse at this moment.
The chess game that I worked so hard to set up, but before it even started, the chess pieces had already jumped. This would be unpleasant for anyone.
However, Li Chengze began to think about another thing in his heart.
Even if Emperor Qing really wants to punish Fan Xian in the future, he will not let him die. He must have a back-up plan.
I just don't know whether Fan Jian and Chen Pingping have come up with a good way to rescue Fan Xian.
He is looking forward to this.
As for what will happen later, the throne of the crown prince must be re-enthroned.
If Li Chengze guessed correctly, after Li Chengqian's funeral was over, the court would definitely propose to enthrone a new crown prince.
Logically speaking, if Li Chengqian died, the biggest beneficiary would naturally be Li Chengze.
However, based on his understanding of Emperor Qing's old silver coin.
Even at that time, Emperor Qing would definitely find other reasons not to pass the throne of crown prince to him.
Of course, it doesn’t matter even if it is not passed on.
Again.
Whoever wants to be the crown prince can be the crown prince.
If you want to be emperor in the future, just rebel and become emperor!
Since the problem cannot be solved, then get rid of the person who caused the problem.
But, now is not the time.
At the same time, Lin Wan'er was also shocked after hearing Lin Ruofu's words.
She didn't expect that His Majesty would cancel the engagement?
Isn't this too sudden?
"Father, are you serious?" Lin Wan'er asked.
Lin Ruofu said: "Of course I take it seriously. How could a father joke about such a thing?"
"Now you have got what you wanted."
When Lin Wan'er knew this was true, she was naturally very happy. This was what she had always dreamed of.
She just felt a little strange.
Why does His Majesty suddenly want to cancel the engagement?
Could it be...
At this moment, Lin Wan'er suddenly remembered Brother Chengze's words in her mind.
Some time ago, Brother Chengze said that he would definitely cancel his engagement.
Lin Wan'er naturally didn't believe it at the time. After all, she knew her uncle well, and once he personally admitted something, he would never let it go easily.
So, she didn't hold out much hope.
Not only that, she also prepared for the worst.
As a result, just a few days later, the engagement was cancelled.
Brother Chengze is really amazing, she likes him more and more.
This also further proves that she and Ling'er made the right choice.
I will not marry anyone other than Brother Chengze in this life!
After Lin Wan'er pondered for a moment, she asked, "Father, why did His Majesty cancel the engagement?"
Lin Ruofu said: "Father doesn't know about this matter for now."
Lin Wan'er nodded and said, "Okay, daughter understands."
"Is there anything else, father?"
Lin Ruofu smiled and said, "No, just this one thing."
"Since you already know, then your father will not bother you anymore." He looked at Lin Wan'er with relief, knowing that the opportunity to ease the relationship between father and daughter had come. He then stopped staying and turned to leave.
Soon after Lin Ruofu left, Lin Wan'er immediately walked to the bedside and whispered:
"Brother Chengze, the person has left."
Li Chengze knew that Lin Ruofu had gone far away, so he rolled out from under the bed.
When he stood up from the ground, he brushed off the dust on his body and said with a smile:
"Well, I've fulfilled my promise to you."
Lin Wan'er said excitedly: "Brother Chengze, it really is you!"
Li Chengze said: "Of course, I won't lie to you about what I said."
"Hehe." Lin Wan'er chuckled and reached out to hug Li Chengze.
"Brother Chengze, you are so awesome!"
"I am yours from now on, and I will not marry anyone else but you!"
Li Chengze felt the softness in front of him, reached out and gently patted Lin Wan'er's shoulder and said:
"Just a little thing."
"You don't have to worry about anything now, just take care of your body first."
Lin Wan'er leaned in Li Chengze's arms, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Oh, right." Lin Wan'er seemed to have thought of something. She looked up at Li Chengze and said, "I discussed something with Ling'er a few days ago. Do you want to listen?"
Li Chengze asked: "Does it have anything to do with me?"
"Yes." Lin Wan'er said with a smile.
Li Chengze pretended to think for a moment and said, "Okay, why not tell me about it."
Lin Wan'er pondered for a moment, then slowly stood on tiptoe, leaned close to Li Chengze's ear, and whispered a few words.
After a while.
Li Chengze opened his eyes wide instantly and looked at Lin Wan'er in disbelief.
"You...you really have discussed this?"
Lin Wan'er blushed slightly and nodded, "Yes."
"When the time comes, I will definitely give you a surprise."
Li Chengze looked at Lin Wan'er and smiled without saying anything.
Wow, you’re really a good friend.
If there is good news, we really need to share it together!
However, he is also looking forward to it.
The story of 'one dragon playing with two phoenixes' is exciting just by hearing about it.
At this time, Lin Wan'er grasped the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands. After hesitating for a moment, she stood on tiptoes again and gave Li Chengze a light kiss on the face.
Then, she returned to her original position and whispered, "This... This is my reward for you."
When Li Chengze saw Lin Wan'er at this moment, his face turned red and he became extremely shy.
Seeing such a lovely girl, Li Chengze couldn't hold back any longer and bent down to kiss her on the face.
Then he said, "This kiss is our kiss of love."
"I promise you, I will marry both of you when the time comes!"
Lin Wan'er hugged Li Chengze again and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
"No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."
……
After a while.
After leaving the Lin Mansion, Li Chengze returned to the Wang Mansion.
On his way back, there were basically not many pedestrians, and even the vendors selling goods had packed up and left early.
After all, those guards just now, who were arresting people everywhere on the streets, felt that there was something wrong with them, even if they were innocent.
When Li Chengze returned to the mansion, Jia Xu, who was responsible for gathering information, immediately found him.
