Chapter 1505: Chapter 1505: Why Suddenly So Concerned About This Matter?

Chu Lingyang knew that Lan Ji must have been frightened by the fact that Chu Qianli would personally oversee the execution of her own grand uncle.

He softened his voice, "Lanlan, you’ve spent too little time with Little Lili, you don’t understand her nature yet."

"If you have time in the future, interact with her more, and you’ll see, she’s an extremely kind girl."

He smiled, trying to ease the atmosphere a bit, "Trust me, she truly is a kind person, don’t let her cold exterior deceive you."

"You say she is, so I believe you. As for interacting more..."

Lan Ji forced a slight smile, "You know I don’t like these kinds of relationships, I just want to take care of my own little home; those things, I don’t like to do."

"Alright, if you don’t like it, don’t do it. Lanlan, whatever you want is fine, just don’t worry, relax."

"Hmm."

Lan Ji leaned against his embrace, lowering her lashes, not letting him see through her thoughts.

She sighed softly, helplessly saying, "I hope everything... is as you say."

...

After Chu Lingyang left, Feng Yexuan finally brought up the last question, "Uncle has the burden of the Heaven and Earth Lock on him, how can it be removed?"

During this time, Chu Wang didn’t dare to step out of the palace gates easily.

Now the matter with Prince Yu is resolved, but as long as the issue of the Heaven and Earth Lock isn’t settled, Chu Wang cannot move freely.

Moreover, there’s always the threat of danger to his life at any time.

"But the Heaven and Earth Lock really isn’t on me; I’ve never even seen that thing."

For Chu Lingyang, the Heaven and Earth Lock is simply a disaster without cause.

However, he also understood that it was Prince Yu’s means to deal with the Emperor.

Now that Prince Yu is dead, the matter of the Heaven and Earth Lock still isn’t resolved.

An evil lingers for a thousand years; truly, who knows when this will end.

Chu Qianli’s long fingers fell on her own wrist.

The Heaven and Earth Lock is actually inside her Universe Chain, yet she too couldn’t comprehend its secret.

Should she tell Fourth Uncle?

Another look behind the screen wall.

Father Emperor hasn’t woken up yet; perhaps this matter should wait until he wakes?

"Little Xuanzi, why suddenly the concern for this issue?"

Chu Wang looked at Feng Yexuan, laughing, "So concerned about your uncle, huh?"

Feng Yexuan didn’t speak but suddenly stood up.

"What is it? Are you getting angry because I said you care? Can’t live with such pride?"

Chu Wang thought he was angry, hurriedly coaxing, "Just a joke, don’t take it seriously."

"Chu Minghao, how do you plan to deal with him?" Feng Yexuan ignored him and only looked at Chu Qianli.

Chu Qianli thought for a while, then said, "Escape the death penalty, but not the living penalty; degrade him to a commoner and exile to the frontier."

...

Although Chu Minghao indeed deserved his punishment.

But before his exile, Chu Qianli still went to see him one last time.

At this moment, beside Chu Minghao, there was a weak-looking woman, Ruji.

From a distance, even though Ruji wore an outer robe, it could be seen that her belly was slightly bulging.

This appearance, it seems to be at least three or four months pregnant.

No wonder the matter of Ruji’s pregnancy was known even to Prince Yu, and he used it to threaten Chu Minghao, forcing Chu Minghao to take all the blame.

"I know my brother’s sins are unforgivable, Your Highness is so magnanimous, I am already very content."

Ruji was brought by Chu Feiyan.

The once arrogant and wild Feiyan Commandery Princess, upon meeting again today, had become mature and steady, as if she’d become a different person.

She bowed to Chu Qianli, softly saying, "But still, please, give my brother a chance to start anew."
