Chapter 167 Who is more playful?
The emperor was already very old, and he had appointed a crown prince early on. Although the crown prince was extremely intelligent, he was born weak, and his several stupid younger brothers were all restless.
But even though the prince was in poor health, he never thought of handing the throne to other sons.
The second son is impulsive and loses his way after being fooled by others. The third son is cowardly and gets timid when others are tough on him. The fifth son loves women all his life and cannot keep his kingdom even if he becomes an emperor. The seventh and eighth sons are mediocre and extremely stupid.
Although he had many sons, he could not find a suitable heir except the crown prince.
He used to be optimistic about his younger brother, Prince Rong's son, but when the son grew up, he changed. He looked so despicable and arrogant that he was even worse than his sons.
But recently, Prince Ling has really caught his eye.
Not as good as the best, but better than the worst. Being the tallest among the short ones, I can still make do.
Thinking of the prince's coma two days ago, the emperor sighed deeply. His old body was very sleepy and he fell into a deep sleep.
"My Lord, come here."
Lipin's voice sounded pleasant and more charming than usual.
The emperor looked around and found that he had arrived at Concubine Li's bedroom without knowing when.
He frowned, looking unhappy.
If he remembered correctly, today was the Queen's memorial day, and he had no plans to look for any concubines.
He turned on his toes and prepared to go out.
"Ahahaha, you're so bad, stop it."
"what……"
Lipin's voice continued to be heard, and it was obvious that she was playing with someone, interspersed with panting. The emperor was a knowledgeable man. He realized something and his gaze returned to the inner room of Lipin's palace.
"You're so mean... That old bastard won't be coming today. It's hilarious. He has countless women in his harem, yet he pretends to be affectionate. He didn't cherish the queen when she was alive, but now he's obsessed with her now that she's dead."
Prince Ling also disliked his father. He executed his mother and ignored him for so many years. As an unpopular prince, he lived worse than the palace maids. How could he not hate him?
Those filial piety and longing are just pretense.
"Why, you don't like him coming over?"
Prince Ling looked at Concubine Li's emotional expression and spoke with a smile.
"I like it, of course I don't like it."
Lipin said indifferently, "If he doesn't come, how can I gain a foothold in the palace? It's just that I'm tired of acting."
"It's okay, haven't I made it up to you?"
The two of them were making a mess again. Amidst their laughter, a bright yellow ball came into their sight. They were startled and looked up.
The old emperor stared at them with a sullen expression, and the coldness in his eyes made people shudder.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Father!"
The two separated quickly, without even bothering to put on their clothes, and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.
Lipin was so frightened that she couldn't speak.
She is finished.
The emperor might not execute his own son, but she, who dared to cheat on the emperor, would surely die.
Prince Ling was also filled with fear. The hardship of the past ten years was deeply engraved in his memory. He begged for mercy in a panic: "Father, Father, I know I was wrong. Father, it was Concubine Li who threatened me. I won't do it again, never again."
Concubine Li looked as pale as death.
Since she was going to die anyway, she didn't mind dragging someone down with her. Hearing this, she sneered, "I blackmailed you. Did I put a knife to your neck and make you take off your clothes? Did I drug you so you couldn't control your body? You call yourself a lowly person, and you blame others when things go wrong. If the emperor gave you the throne, you'd be the first to defect when you met the enemy!"
