Chapter 303 Counterattack
"Princess No. 7, did you also deceive His Majesty with this method?"
Lun Chengran clenched his fists, he looked up, gazing at Nan Leqin with a desolate expression.
Upon hearing his words, Nan Leqin chuckled again.
"I never knew before that Father Emperor could be so foolish. Initially, my mother told me that Father Emperor cannot stand firmness but has a soft spot for pitiful acts. If I acted pitifully, I could certainly arouse his sympathy. I tried it, and indeed it was so..."
"Father Emperor used to love Nan Baihan so much, but after I humbled myself, wasn’t I still able to successfully drive a wedge in their relationship? Nan Baihan is also foolish, the more headstrong she is, the more Father Emperor pities me."
"So, your suicide was also an act?" Lun Chengran pressed.
"Suicide? Although I have lost my reputation, I am still a person of nobility. And with that bitch Nan Baihan still alive, how could I possibly die? Suicide was merely a means to gain Father Emperor’s pity..."
Nan Leqin spoke with a smug tone.
"What I regret most now is how domineering I was before. If I had humbled myself to Father Emperor earlier, he would have grown tired of Nan Baihan and Nan Li long ago."
"Yes, His Majesty and I are both fools, both deceived by you," Lun Chengran said, his voice filled with sorrow.
