Thinking about how unusually generous the old man was today, and even had me find a woman, and said that within a month I had to get the companion sleeping woman pregnant...

At the time, Zhao Tailai didn't think much of it. He just thought that the old man was getting older and wanted to hold his grandson, to experience the joy of having grandchildren. But now it seems that he clearly wanted him to stay behind and give birth to offspring for the Zhao family.

At this thought, Zhao Taile felt a chill run down his spine.

No one wants to die, let alone be killed by their own father.

Li Chen's question was like the devil's temptation in an abyss.

Zhao Tailai was taken aback. He looked at Li Chen with utmost vigilance and suspicion, saying, “Are you being so kind Or do you want to use me to deal with my father”

"Your father brought you into this world and raised you, but now he wants you dead. Do you still consider him your father"

Li Chen said faintly, "Rest assured, I have my own way to deal with Zhao Xuanji. I don't need you. Besides, what can you do for me What can you possibly do"

This hurts more than a slap in the face.

The most frustrating thing was that Zhao Tailai actually found himself unable to refute it.

Have I become so worthless that I'm not even useful to be exploited

Li Chen ignored his inner monologue and said calmly, "If you want to live, then you need to find someone who currently has influence over your father. Think about it, who else could make your father change his mind"

Zhao Tailai blurted out, "My sister!"

Since she was a child, Zhao Qinglan had been exceptionally intelligent and possessed a temperament similar to Zhao Xuanji's, which made her incredibly beloved. At the very least, she was favored far more than her brother Zhao Tailai.

Zhao Tailai had no doubts. If Zhao Qinglan were not a woman, she would undoubtedly be groomed by Zhao Xuanji as the heir apparent.

In terms of emotions, Zhao Qinglan not only influences Zhao Xuanji's thoughts but more importantly, her status is now a crucial pillar for the Zhao family, and Zhao Xuanji cannot afford to offend her.

This, Li Chen had thought of earlier.

But the only thing he was unsure about was the nature of Zhao Qinglan and Zhao Taile's relationship.

If the relationship isn't good, it'll all be for nothing.

"Would your sister help you" Li Chen asked.

Of course!

Zhao Tailai clenched his fist and said: "My elder sister has taken care of me since I was young. After Mother passed away, every time Father wanted to hit me, it was my sister who helped me. My sister once told me that Father values fame and fortune over family affection. In this world, only my sister and I are the closest people, and we should support and take care of each other."

OK.

Li Chen smiled with satisfaction.

"This palace will arrange for you to meet her tonight. You'll know what to say."

Zhao Tailai was overjoyed. If it weren't for Li Chen's help, he wouldn't have been able to see his elder sister who lived deep within the palace. It would have been as difficult as reaching the heavens.

Most importantly, this will be known to my father immediately.

But after the ecstasy, Zhao Tailai felt uneasy again.

"Why are you helping me"

Of course, it's about making the women turn against each other and give Zhao Xuanji a devastating blow.

Li Chen thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud.

"I'm only saying that out of pity for you."

A single sentence struck Zhao Tai like a thunderbolt.

As the son of a distinguished high-ranking official, he should be envied and admired wherever he goes. Yet, before Li Chen, he was nothing but a pitiful creature.

Yet, he was unable to refute it.

Just moments ago, the very identity he held most dear, and his father, were about to push him into the crematorium themselves.

With clenched fists, Zhao Tailai was on the verge of breaking down.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside.

"Your Highness, Minister Xu Yuandao of the Ministry of Rites, accompanied by several other officials, is requesting an audience outside." A Jinyiwei guard reported as he entered.

Li Chen glanced at Zhao Tailai and told Liu Sichun, "Find someone to take him out the back door. Don't let anyone see."eet Li Chen arriving with a large retinue."Your Highness!"Zhao Rui's face was pale with alarm as she rushed to Li Chen's side and asked, "Were you attacked Are you alright Were you hurt"Zhao Rui didn'...
