Chapter 396: This Is The Childs Choice
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Must I search your soul?
The crown prince pursed his lips, not making a sound. Qiao Mai pressed against his forehead and released her hand after a while.
A slap landed on the crown princes face, sending him flying.
In such a short time, you betrayed Linger?
She raised her hand, ready to kill the crown prince. The empress rushed forward and held onto Qiao Mais arm. In-law, dont be hasty. Calm down first, and lets talk about what happened.
Seeing Qiao Mai so angry, the crown prince immediately knelt on the ground. Mother-in-law, I really dont know what happened.
The emperor also stepped forward to stop Qiao Mais anger. In-law, please tell us what happened?
At this moment, Linger was assisted out of the room. Mother, lets talk calmly. Dont be angry. This daughter believes the crown prince is innocent.
Qiao Mai glared at her. Quickly rest in your room. Dont leave any hidden illness.
Mother, please?
She looked at the crown prince. Your man has been affected by a venomous worm. Once infected with this kind of poison, he will be controlled, and in severe cases, it can lead to death.
The group turned pale. What poison has the crown prince been infected with?
I havent studied this kind of insect. If its something from the immortal realms, he wouldnt be able to escape. Fortunately, its a local insect, and I have sufficient means to deal with it.
Updted on BX0VEL.cmSo the crown prince is being controlled?
Its possible. But when I searched his soul, it didnt seem like that. Otherwise, why would I ask him?
The emperor and empress looked at the crown prince. Speak up!
The crown prince gritted his teeth. I have nothing to say. What I said and did before seemed like a blur, and it was only after spitting that blood just now that I felt clear-headed.
Qiao Mai squinted at him. Not giving up, huh?
She closed her eyes, reached in a direction, and grabbed a black-clothed woman by the neck.
The crown princes face turned pale at the sight.
The veil on the black-clothed womans face was lifted by Qiao Mais other hand. Long time no see.
The others looked closely. The emperor immediately pointed at her. Isnt this the woman who fainted on the road?
Yes. Failing to seduce you, she turned to seducing the crown prince. Beautiful women never go out of style, do they? Crown prince?
Li Yuxuan felt guilty and lowered his head. Qiao Mai looked at the black-clothed woman who was struggling to breathe.
Her fingernail scratched the womans face, and a layer of skin peeled off. She then pulled off her mask, revealing an ordinary face.
The crown prince turned even paler. No, its impossible.
Whether her face is real or not, I hope you can explain to me about your actions.
If you didnt like Linger, there were better men in this world waiting for her. We didnt have to choose you. Marriage is a big matter, and it involves mutual consent. If agreed upon, you should treat her well. How much time has passed now? You easily changed your mind and betrayed Linger for a superficial appearance. This is something I cannot allow.
The emperor tried to defend the crown prince. In-law, it might be that thing called a venomous worm. It made him lose his mind, causing him to do such things. I hope you can be lenient.
Before he could finish his words, the Golden Dragon Guards outside reported.
Your Majesty, the two midwives surrendered. They were following the crown princes orders, intending to harm the crown princess during childbirth and save only the newborn.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Mai slammed her hand on the table, turning it into powder.
Bastard. Trying to kill the mother and save the child? Are you making space for her?
She seized the black-clothed woman by the neck, instantly exerting force. With a crisp sound, her neck snapped.
She threw the woman out. Crown prince, I want to hear a complete explanation. Otherwise
Seeing Qiao Mai furious and about to take the crown princes life, Linger rushed forward and stood in front of Qiao Mai despite just giving birth.
Mother, even if he is wrong, spare him this once for the child, considering he was manipulated. If it happens again, you can kill him.
Qiao Mai felt disappointed. Girl, how many lives do you have to let him mess around? This time, Blackie happened to notice something different about him.Otherwise, you, the child, and the Great Ming Empire- Would you hand them over?
Otherwise, you, the child, and the Great Ming Empire- Would you hand them over?
Mother, he is still young, inexperienced, and has encountered few things. I beg you to spare him this time.
You really infuriate me.
Qiao Mai glared fiercely at Linger, then pulled Yuan Jiaqis arm, disappearing on the spot.
Linger finally breathed a sigh of relief. Father, Mother, lets put an end to this matter. I will go rest.
Go ahead.
The two watched the crown prince kneeling on the ground. If Father guessed right, were you enchanted by her beauty?
Son was wrong. Li Yuxuan glanced at the black-clothed woman lying dead on the ground, sadness in his eyes.
As a man who stands tall and firm, making a promise means keeping it. You have let Linger down.
I will repent.
During this time, reflect in the Crown Princes residence. I am in the palace.
You can entrust Lingers postpartum recovery to your mother.
Yes, Father.
The Golden Dragon Guards escorted the crown prince out of the palace. The emperor sighed. A lifetime with one person sounds simple when spoken, but its challenging in practice.
Yes, from ancient times, emperors rarely had one woman by their side, whether it was due to scheming outsiders or the emperors themselves. Sigh. Take good care of your daughter-in-law. Ill go handle state affairs.
Linger lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face. She could still sense the changes in the crown prince despite his pretense.
Considering he was under the control of a worm, she gave him a chance. If there was a second time, not only would Mother not spare him, but she wouldnt either.
In the courtyard, Flame stood by the window. Linger called out to it.
It leaped over the window, and the room immediately felt warm. Its attribute brought warmth to the room.
Flame, thank you for accompanying me. If he betrays me again, take his life.
Flame let out a low growl. The crown prince, who hadnt left the palace yet, trembled upon hearing the growl.
Fortunately, Lingers temperament didnt follow the Tian family. She was molded by Qiao Mai.
She was willing to give him a chance for the sake of the child.
In Lucky Garden at Tianshui Town.
Qiao Mai was so angry that she smashed everything in the courtyard. She had never been so mad before.
Yuan Jiaqi watched on the side, letting her vent. It was better to let out the anger than to keep it in, as it could harm oneself.
Wife, this is the childs choice; let it be.
Once a man betrays, he will betray countless times. Its the same for women. One act of unfaithfulness means a lifetime of distrust. Its such a simple truth. How many times have I taught her?
She still has feelings for the crown prince. Lets take it step by step.
Do you know that an open attack is easy to defend against, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against? His tricks are useless against me, but its not the same for Linger.
He should restrain himself for the sake of that position.
Qiao Mai sat down and sighed heavily. Yuan Jiaqi brewed tea for her. Wife, dont be angry. I believe with you guarding her, nothing will happen to Linger.
I never expected that someone with a decent appearance and royal blood would be as fickle and heartless as anyone else.
Wife, when you held that woman, she kept clutching her stomach. Is she?
If not, why would I be so angry? If he was attracted to her, I could forgive it.
But they had physical intimacy..
