trembled, and Zhao Tailai cried out in pain, "But I want to marry her. If it wasn't for her, I would rather remain unmarried for life!"Bang!This heart-wrenching statement earned Zhao Xuanji a second...Chapter 401: Delivered to Your Doorstep
But, Prince Wenwang gave the first presidency to Zhao Taile. Could it be that Zhao Taile is also in cahoots with them Su Jinpa asked.
Li Chen said faintly, “This is the most hurtful part.”
"The president is just a title, a formality. The real power lies in the hands of those who can influence the Wenyuan Society constantly. As long as they can do that, their father's and son's objectives will be met."
"Look at Zhao Tai's smug expression. He clearly hasn't realized he's been set up as a scapegoat by the father and son of King Wen."
“In case anything goes wrong, even if the imperial court investigates or becomes suspicious of the Wenyuan Society, who would be held first responsible Naturally, it would be the head.”
"Zhao Tailai is responsible, so even if Zhao Xuanji is unwilling, he can only bite the bullet and fish people out. The King Wen's move is very clever."
But there is some good news at least it proves that Zhao Xuanji and Wen Wang are not on the same path.
As Li Chen recounted his tale, Su Jinpa felt that the dark and ugly underbelly hidden beneath Yimei Garden was laid bare before her eyes. She was horrified by what she saw.
"Can't these people just live their lives properly Duke Wen's fiefdom has money, power, what else could they possibly want They even reach into the capital city to stir up trouble."
Li Chen said calmly, "Human desire is insatiable, it's because he has too much money and status that he wants more. If he were struggling to feed himself, with his land barren and unproductive, he wouldn't have the time or energy to think about anything else."
After finishing his words, Li Chen stood up and said, "Alright, there's nothing interesting here anymore. Let's go."
Su Jinpa, hearing this, didn't want to stay in this murky atmosphere any longer. She stood up and was about to leave with Li Chen.
And Zhao Tailai, who had been paying close attention to the situation, was the first to notice that the two were about to leave.
He was at the peak of his career, riding high on success and feeling invincible. He dismissed any jealousy as simply Li Chen being envious of his position as chairman, refusing to let this opportunity to flaunt his power pass him by.
With just a single mouth, Zhao Tailai stopped Li Chen and Su Jinping.
"Please wait a moment."
Zhao Tailai strode forward with a confident air, his every move and gesture revealing an unexpected sense of authority.
He walked up to Li Chen with his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "What, are you leaving now Not joining the Wenyuan Society"
Before Li Chen could answer, Zhao Tailai immediately said, "Haha, even I wouldn't join. After all, the position of president isn't something they'd give you."
Li Chen looked coldly at Zhao Tailai and said, "You're pleased with yourself"
Zhao Tailai's smile faltered, and before he could speak, Li Chen added, "There will be times for you to cry."
Zhao Tailai's face was stiff, and he snorted coldly: "Look at your envious look, are you angry It's a pity, being angry is useless. What can you do with just a few words Nowadays, people recognize backgrounds, abilities, not just talk."
"Young Master Zhao, it seems you are the least qualified to say that"
Speaking was Su Jinpa, his voice laced with impatience.
She glared at Zhao Tailei with a cold expression and said, "Are you the headmaster just because you fell from the sky You're really treating chicken feathers as an imperial decree"
"If you say he's incapable, well, today is a poetry meeting. I was planning to auction poems for disaster relief fundraising, so I have prepared one as well."
Saying that, Su Jinpa took out a long scroll that had been prepared long ago and instructed someone to open it. The elegant and graceful handwriting immediately appeared on the paper.
"It is 'Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng'!"
"It's really "The Preface to the Pavilion of Wang Teng," these days, my teacher has been making me recite it every day. It's true!"think I would agree"Li Chen nonchalantly said, "Whether it's the White Lotus Sect or Li Yinhǔ, they are both targets I must eliminate. How could I possibly give this power to Li Yinhǔ"Or so..."I've ju...
