Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 277 Li Xian Awakens

Wu Sansi was so furious that he was obviously out of his mind, otherwise he would not have openly yelled at Li Xian as if he was going to break up with him.

The other servants in Li Xian's mansion could not stand Wu Sansi's behavior.

Yang Zaisi slammed the table, stood up and was about to have a good talk with Wu Sansi.

However, as soon as he stood up, he noticed Li Xian's extremely calm eyes and expressionless face.

Secretly surprised, Yang Zaisi slowly sat down. He clearly felt that the prince today seemed different from usual.

"Are you finished?" Li Xian asked calmly.

At this moment, Li Xian's expression was so calm, as if the person who was quarreling with him was not his enemy, but his father-in-law who usually spoke nice things to him and chatted with him.

Wu Sansi finally noticed something unusual. His scalp couldn't help but tingle. He carefully looked at the prince who was sitting there with a calm expression.

Is that the prince?

Why does it feel like Wu Zetian is sitting on it?

The look of not taking anyone seriously and the murderous aura that Li Xian unconsciously revealed made Wu Sansi breathless. He subconsciously wanted to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Li Xian to apologize.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for being rude just now."

Wu Sansi lowered his posture and bowed to Li Xian.

"I ask you, are you done?"

Li Xian still had that dead expression and that dead tone. He didn't take Wu Sansi seriously at all.

It was as if he had returned to the time when he ascended the throne, sitting alone on the dragon throne, feeling the loneliness of being the supreme ruler, and looking smugly at the ministers kneeling at his feet and cheering "Long live the emperor", and also looking at the people kneeling at his feet, and looking further ahead, even the world was at his feet!

"Your Highness, I have finished speaking. Please punish me!"

Wu Sansi buried his head very low, like an ostrich, shrinking his neck and not daring to look at Li Xian and Yang Zaisi.

It was really like seeing a ghost. He actually felt a terrifying pressure coming from Li Xian. Facing Li Xian was like facing Wu Zetian.

"When you're done, get out now."

"You know what you did behind my back, so I don't need to mention it again."

"When I want to talk to you nicely, you'd better shrink your neck and talk to me. When I don't want to talk to you, you won't be able to say anything."

Li Xian's eyes flashed with coldness, and he looked at Wu Sansi as if he were a dead person.

"Yes, yes, I'll leave right away. I'll leave right away."

Wu Sansi lowered his head and tiptoed out of the main hall of the East Palace like a servant, not daring to make a sound when he stepped on the ground.

After leaving the East Palace, Wu Sansi, sweating profusely, found his servants, got on the carriage, and dejectedly asked the servants to go back quickly.

"What the hell, I feel like I'm looking at my aunt."

In the Eastern Palace, the more Yang Zaisi looked at Li Xian, the more he felt that he already had the qualities of a ruler, so he quickly stood up and kowtowed to Li Xian.

"The prince is now more and more like Your Majesty. When he ascends the throne one day, he will definitely be a good emperor."

Li Xian glanced at Yang Zaisi calmly, let out a breath, and his voice gradually became gentler.

"I, the heir of the Li clan, have already decided to withdraw from the court dispute over the crown prince position. This villain is so ignorant of the situation that he dares to hold me accountable. He is so hateful!"

"Last year, I lost two of my brothers and sisters. After the Xue Mansion tragedy, I almost lost my position as crown prince."

"We finally had some peace this year, but this happened again."

"Your Majesty has already regarded us, the descendants of the Li family, as thorns in your eyes and flesh. If we do not retreat, disaster will occur sooner or later."

"How could Wu Sansi not appreciate my kindness? Does he really think I still need to endure like before?"

"When it comes to the heir of the Li family, I have to be tough."

Li Xian's eyes were shining. At this point, he could indeed be considered a good leader of the Li family.

Ever since the rebellious princes died one after another, Crown Prince Li Xian had involuntarily become the leader of the Li clan.

Over the past few years, the descendants of the Li family have been causing trouble in various places. Some died, some were injured, some were convicted, and some had their entire families executed.

There are only a few people that Li Xian can protect.

Last year, Li Gui got into trouble in Huzhou. For Li Gui, Li Xian took his subordinates and rode all the way to Huzhou, but was finally caught by Xu Shide.

It is the same this year. Li Lingyue's affairs are too serious. Li Xian dare not protect her, nor can he.

Since her own daughter had rebelled, Wu Zetian would definitely regard her two biological sons as time bombs. So Li Xian and Li Dan met in private and discussed this matter.

Chen Bo was Li Dan's disciple and volunteered to die. All the men, women, young and old in Liu Ergou's house had already been sent to another place. After Li Cunxi left Liang County, Liu Ergou's family would be reunited.

The so-called Liang County case was nothing more than a trap they designed.

His purpose was simply to get Li Dan away from the court and flee to Fangzhou to contact old ministers and veteran generals in case of emergency, while Li Xian would remain in the court and watch the infighting within the Wu family.

"What His Royal Highness is planning is definitely not something that ordinary people can understand."

Yang Zaisi couldn't help but praise.

This is the first time in all these years that I have seen his Royal Highness the Crown Prince being so smart.

Clearly, something happened to Li Gui, the son of King Yue, in Huzhou last year, but this stupid prince still took the risk alone and headed for Huzhou without any hesitation.

Who could have thought that the prince would come to his senses this year? The two princes joined forces to protect Li Cunxi. This shows that they are fully prepared to withdraw from the battle for the throne.

"Your Majesty is determined to make a member of the Wu clan the crown prince. Although the ministers can advise against it, the power to make the decision still lies with Your Majesty."

Li Xian slowly raised his head, a hint of sadness appearing in his eyes.

"I really miss the days when my father was still alive. There were no such things back then."

"At that time, the Wu family was not as rampant as it is now."

"I can be freer too."

"But those days have passed. Li Dan and I can only protect ourselves. As for the remaining descendants of the Li family, let Lord Di and Brother Li Cunxi take care of them."

Li Xian was probably really tired. He didn't sit in this position for a long time, but it was very painful.

The pressure from His Majesty and the sons of the Wu family made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

But he is the crown prince after all, and he was the emperor before, so he has to shoulder this burden with all his strength.

As for now... Li Xian stood up and took a deep look at the palace maid who had been guarding for a long time.

"Will you also report these words to His Majesty?"

The palace maid trembled all over and fell to her knees with a thud.

"Your Highness, have mercy on me, Your Highness, please have mercy on me!"

"Drag her out and drown her." Li Xian's eyes were cold, and he turned to Yang Zaisi and said calmly, "Please report to His Majesty that I drowned a palace maid and I will reflect on my sins behind closed doors."
