Chapter 586 - 171 Tearing Up_4
This appearance, it’s as if she truly had reached a dead end, a measure of desperation.
Li Zhongnan and his son, who stood at the forefront, had their eyelids twitch violently, as none had anticipated Princess Yongning would burst in so suddenly. This princess, accustomed to doing as she pleased due to her status, even dared to enter the Golden Throne Hall uninvited. This was a fact that Li Xian had not foreseen. He had thought that, although Princess Yongning was presumptuous, she would still consider the Li Family’s status to some extent, at the very least for the sake of Prince Cheng. They were Prince Cheng’s people, and even if Princess Yongning wanted to target the Li Family, to weaken Prince Cheng’s influence, she wouldn’t dare do so if she had any brains.
But when Princess Yongning set her mind to something, she’d never reconsider, not even by a fraction. Whomever she wanted dead had to die; that was always her principle.
Li Xian couldn’t help but look towards Prince Cheng.
Prince Cheng was also stunned; he had no idea what had taken place. These days, he was consumed with his own important matters, and didn’t concern himself with Yongning’s issues. He assumed that the Li Family, considering his own face, wouldn’t dare to mistreat Yongning. Although Yongning was somewhat headstrong, as long as there was no major conflict with the Li Family, nothing untoward would happen.
But today, when Yongning rushed out so unexpectedly, shocking the Li Family, it also caught Prince Cheng off guard. On one side was his sister, on the other, his confidant. Honestly, at this juncture, he would rather protect the Li Family over offending them; the Li Family was a crucial part of his plans. If his cause were jeopardized because of Yongning, his great endeavor would be ruined!
"Yongning, stop this nonsense and go back right now!" Prince Cheng gave a warning, "This is not the place for you to speak."
Yongning turned a deaf ear, knowing she only had one chance. She hated the Li Family, for they had killed her child, yet there was nothing she could do. If she didn’t divorce Li Xian now, Prince Cheng, in order to appease the Li Family, would certainly ensure she couldn’t do so. Moreover, to protect this secret, the Li Family would make her remain Madam Li for a long, long time, never allowing her liberty.
