Supreme Crazy Wife

Chapter 145: Change Of Tide (4)

“Okay.” Li Yuan nodded, his mind racing. How would he dare to have any ideas about such a great person? He wasn’t tired of living.

Just like that, this palace robbery to seize the throne that was supposed to be bloody was quietly completed under Leng Ruoxue’s planning.

“Ruoxue, this is for you. It’s the seventh prince you wanted,” Mo Yingyue said as she threw a fainted dumpling over.

Leng Ruoxue looked at the seventh prince, who had been tied up into a dumpling and thrown on the ground, with a face full of black lines. The seventh prince, who was loved and doted on, probably never dreamed of such an end, right? But he was already unconscious. Was there a need to tie him up like this?

“Crown Prince, you’re not allowed to bully Big Sister Mo. Otherwise, I won’t let you off,” Leng Ruoxue said threateningly. Although she hadn’t known Mo Yingyue for long, Mo Yingyue could be considered her only female friend.

“How would I dare!” Li Yuan teased and glanced at his beloved wife with a bitter look.

“That’s good. Okay, we’re leaving.”

With that, Leng Ruoxue motioned for Freak to pick up the seventh prince, and then the two of them disappeared into the pitch-black night.

Not far from the palace, Leng Ruoxue and Ye Chen were stopped by someone.

“Who are you?” Leng Ruoxue asked cautiously as she looked at the lanky old man in green cotton clothing blocking their way. This old man was actually a Spiritual Supremacy. Besides, if she and Freak hadn’t decided to walk back, this old man really wouldn’t have been able to stop them.

“Everyone calls me Old Patriarch.” The lanky old man sighed softly. His slightly turbid eyes stared straight at Leng Ruoxue with a sharp glow because he was really curious. How could this little girl be so bold?

“Old Patriarch? The old patriarch of the imperial family?” Leng Ruoxue looked at the old man doubtfully. It seemed like this old patriarch of the Eastern Lagoon Empire’s imperial family already knew what they did. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have approached her. But so what if he found her? The throne still belonged to their Li family. It was just a different person.

“Little girl, you have good eyesight. However, you’re quite gutsy. You actually dared to help the crown prince usurp the throne!” the old man said expressionlessly, making it impossible to see his emotions.

“Thank you for your compliment. I’m just doing what I think is right. It’s not worth mentioning,” Leng Ruoxue said shamelessly. She didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with her helping the crown prince seize the throne. But she was thinking in her heart, You called yourself the old patriarch. I would really be a simpleton if I couldn’t guess it! But what does this old man want from me? Revenge for his grandson?

“Little girl, what do you think I should do with you?” the old man asked, seemingly in a dilemma.

“That’s easy. Let us go, and we’ll go head home to sleep,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly. This old man didn’t seem to be here to avenge his grandson because he didn’t deliberately release his might.

“Little girl, the Eastern Lagoon imperial family changed dynasties overnight because of your involvement. Are we going to let this matter rest?” The old man saw Leng Ruoxue pretending to be stupid, so he simply said it clearly. This little girl’s ability to pretend to be stupid was even better than Leng Qingtian’s! One of them was a cunning old fox, and the other was a little fox, and they were both very difficult to deal with.

“Isn’t it normal to change dynasties? Anyway, they are both from your Li family. Is there a difference who sits on the throne? Moreover, don’t you think Li Yuan is more suitable for the throne than Li Xun? The throne will be Li Yuan’s sooner or later since he’s the crown prince. It’s just that it’s ahead of schedule,” Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly. Of course, she had thought about all the possible consequences very clearly since she dared to make the move. Moreover, she didn’t think that the old patriarch of the imperial family would be angry over something like seizing the throne. People in such high positions had experienced things like seizing power.

“So I have to thank you.” The old man rolled his eyes speechlessly. This little girl is really sharp-tongued.

“There’s no need to thank me. It’s good enough as long as you don’t find trouble with me nor don’t blame me for being nosy,” Leng Ruoxue said very calmly. This old man really knows how to pretend. He obviously didn’t want to bother about this matter, but he still looked for me. Could it be that he wants a spot for the mystic realm?

“…”

Nosy? Would you meddle in other people’s affairs? It’s all because Li Xun pissed you off. The old man’s forehead dripped with cold sweat. This little girl’s skin is really extraordinarily thick!

“Is there anything else? If not, I’m going home to sleep,” Leng Ruoxue reminded.

“Little girl, aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?” The old man was depressed. Why wasn’t this little girl afraid of him at all? His descendants were like mice seeing a cat when they saw him. All of them were afraid of him.

“Not afraid. If you wanted to kill me, you would have done so by now. Would you still say so much nonsense to me?” Leng Ruoxue asked in return. She was still confident about this. This old man probably found Li Xun not pleasing to the eye a long time ago. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to appear only after they succeeded.

In fact, Leng Ruoxue was right. He was a Spiritual Supremacy, so the empress and the others couldn’t hide what they did from him. But he didn’t stop them, indirectly agreeing to their actions.

“Little girl, I’ve lived for so long, but I’ve never seen someone as confident as you!” the old man said with admiration and regret. Alas! Why isn’t there someone like Leng Ruoxue among my descendants? I would be able to worry less that way!

“It’s a must to have confidence,” Leng Ruoxue said proudly.

“Old man, if there’s nothing else, I’m really going home to sleep,” Leng Ruoxue added. In other words, she was tired and didn’t want to chat with him anymore.

“Sigh, go!” The old man shook his head helplessly. He could also tell that this girl didn’t want to have anything to do with the imperial family, so he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He would say it again when he had the chance in the future!

The old man moved to the side to make way. Leng Ruoxue and Freak walked straight over. The old man also chose to ignore Li Yu, whom Freak was carrying.

After returning to the general’s mansion, Leng Ruoxue and Freak handed Li Yu to Feng Da and instructed him to lock Li Yu up in the dungeon before returning to their rooms to sleep.
