Chapter 1559 - 352, Are you seriously ill? (Second update)
However, it clearly disappointed him, as this low-level provocation didn’t even catch Xia Zheng’s eye, and Lin Yuan was able to dismiss him without needing Xia Zheng to take action.
Lin Yuan propped her chin with both hands, her eyes gleaming with mischief as she softly asked, "May I inquire how many acres of land and how many cattle does Crown Prince Helian’s family own? Are your parents deceased? Do you get along with your siblings? And most importantly, is Crown Prince Helian suffering from a serious illness with a short time left to live?"
He Lieno was stunned, clearly baffled by Lin Yuan’s questions: "What does this have to do with you becoming my Crown Princess Consort?"
"Of course, it matters."
Lin Yuan’s voice rose an octave, drawing the attention of a delivery boy outside the door who couldn’t help but shiver.
"Let’s not mention the other issues, but if Crown Prince Helian’s parents are still alive, wouldn’t I have to wait a long time before I could ascend from Crown Princess Consort to Empress? If Crown Prince Helian is on bad terms with his brothers, constantly at risk of being stripped of his royal position, wouldn’t my life as a Crown Princess Consort be endangered?"
Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows, bringing up the most crucial and important point.
"And there’s another critical issue, if the Crown Prince isn’t seriously ill and could live to a hundred, wouldn’t my role as Crown Princess Consort or Empress be quite dull? Tsk tsk, I was actually looking forward to you dying soon so I could freely enjoy being the Empress! I’d keep a few handsome courtesans, occasionally dressing up in disguise to sneak out and visit the male prostitution brothels, oh my, what a fulfilling life that would be!"
