Chapter 1246 I’ll Ruin Your Descendants

Two bailiffs pulled Shao Jing into a room. Shao Jing staggered in and saw Chu Liuchen sitting lazily under the light. He sat down on a stool on the side. Anyway, he was about to be dead, so he was not afraid of anything.

“Why did you imprison Infanta Qinghua, Shao Jing?” Xiao Xuanzi took a step forward and asked Shao Jing coldly.

“No reason. I can imprison her whenever I want,” Shao Jing said. He was really not afraid of anything now. The Ministry of Justice had tortured him a lot, but he kept giving the same answer.

What was there to be afraid of when he was about to die?

“Do you think that you are going to die anyway… it doesn’t matter?” Chu Liuchen rolled his dark pupils and said those words with an elegant smile. He looked like a handsome and gentle scholar who had just come out of a painting.

But in such a place, even Wen Xichi, who was originally gentle, was stained with a little evil Qi, not to mention Chu Liuchen, who wasn’t really gentle at all. In Shao Jing’s bloodshot eyes, such a smile looked gloomy and weird.

Shao Jing calmed down and said with a sneer, “No matter what you say, Prince Chen. Whatever you say!” He couldn’t sit still and fell to the ground feebly. Holding the foot of the stool, he looked up at Chu Liuchen provocatively. He was really not afraid that Chu Liuchen would kill him now. Compared with being cut into pieces, he would rather die now.

However, the people of the Ministry of Justice watched him closely, so he had no chance to die.

After taking a deep breath, Shao Jing spat out a mouthful of blood in the direction of Chu Liuchen in an attempt to irritate him. Others might not dare to deal with him since the Ministry of Justice had sentenced him, but Prince Chen dared. Shao Jing was very willing to see Chu Liuchen stab him to death.

Right now, he was alive to suffer this fate.

Xiao Xuanzi stood in front of Chu Liuchen, and Shao Jing spat on him. He was so angry that his face turned pale, and he wanted to slap Shao Jing hard.

“Do you think that I can’t do anything to you?” Chu Liuchen said lazily, “Don’t forget that you have a son, Shao Jing.”

“So what? I’m going to die. If I die, I won’t be able to see anything. It’s useless for me to worry about it.” Shao Jing said with his heart beating fast, but he looked indifferent.

Chu Liuchen looked at Shao Jing with interest and said meaningfully, “Shao Jing, do you think that I won’t know if you don’t say anything? You are guilty, and your son is certainly implicated, so his official rank will be removed and he will never be able to be an official. Moreover, three generations of your descendants will not be able to enter the imperial court.”

Shao Jing held the foot of the stool and trembled, but then he said, “This matter has nothing to do with Hua’an. At that time, he was still young and ignorant. He… he has always been good to Princess Chen. Since Princess Chen came to the mansion, Hua’an has been protecting her. If it weren’t for Hua’an, Princess Chen wouldn’t have been in peace in the past three years.”

“Do you mean that your son is even protecting my lady?” Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows and said those words with an enchanting smile, which made people feel cold in their hearts.

Shao Jing couldn’t help swallowing. Although he meant that, after hearing what Chu Liuchen said, he inexplicably felt that he didn’t mean that.

“Princess Chen has a good relationship with Hua’an. She won’t ruin Hua’an’s future,” Shao Jing argued.

“But you hurt my lady’s family. Even if I want to let it go, I can’t. That’s what Uncle the Emperor ordered. I’m afraid it will be difficult for your son to survive.” Chu Liuchen smiled slightly with sarcasm.

“Your Highness, what do you want?” Shao Jing narrowed his eyes and asked. He didn’t care that Shao Hua’an was in a difficult situation now, but he had to live. Only by living could he have a way out.

“Don’t you know what I want? Aren’t you trying to irritate me? If it were someone else, you wouldn’t have done that. The reason is that I’m willful and reckless. Even Uncle the Emperor can only listen to me sometimes, right?” Chu Liuchen stretched out his slender finger and knocked on the table. “Now I don’t like your son, and I’ll ruin your descendants!”

Chu Liuchen still said the last sentence with a smile. There was not even a trace of anger on his handsome face. He gently said that he would exterminate Shao Jing’s whole family. Even though Shao Jing was eager to die, he couldn’t help trembling a few times at this time. His face was deathly pale.

If it were another Prince who said this, he would not believe it. But it was Chu Liuchen. Even the Emperor and Empress Dowager gave in to him. If he really did such a thing and destroyed Shao Jing’s whole family, the Emperor would pretend that he did not know it even if he knew it.

Shao Jing’s son and daughter were his only hope.

It wasn’t that Shao Jing had the spirit to sacrifice himself, but that he had no choice but to do so. He was pressed with great charges and couldn’t escape, so he had to risk his life not to tell all the secrets.

He was still keeping one last secret about Infanta Qinghua, which was the main reason why he imprisoned her.

“Prince Cheng is now Commandery Prince Cheng and has been grounded by Uncle the Emperor. He is not allowed to leave the city for no reason in the future and go to the Yuyun Temple. If he really wants to become a monk, he can actually do it in his mansion. There are no women in Prince Cheng’s Mansion, so he is just like a monk.”

Chu Liuchen said those words casually and glanced at Shao Jing with a gentle smile, which made Shao Jing tremble all over.

Shao Jing raised his head and looked at Chu Liuchen with difficulty. He had never liked this sick and weak prince. Even though Prince Chen was in good health later, Shao Jing had never really taken a look at him. This was also the reason why Shao Wanru could marry into Prince Chen’s Mansion smoothly. But now, Shao Jing felt that he was really blind. How could he have only felt that Prince Chen was weak, willful, and useless?

If the person in front of him was really useless, then the others would be even worse.

No one could see things as clearly as Prince Chen did. But judging from his confident look, Shao Jing knew that Prince Chen must know something or have something about Prince Cheng under his control.

Shao Jing felt like crying and laughing out of the madness. He looked gloomy and wanted to say something, but he didn’t know where to start. He pursed his lips and remained silent.

“Your daughter is not in Prince Cheng’s Mansion now. She may have been given away by Prince Cheng. I don’t know if it is Prince Yue or Prince Zhou. I think it is most likely to be Prince Zhou. After all, He is hot-tempered and impulsive. But I also heard that most of the concubines in his mansion died. Prince Zhou easily vents his anger on these women when he is not happy. They are just women with no status. It is really not a big deal to kill a few of them.”

Chu Liuchen continued to discourage Shao Jing.

His words sounded ordinary, but they made Shao Jing tremble with fury and blush.

“Don’t say that you don’t know that your daughter faked her death and went out of the Palace. Infanta Qinghua got the medicine of Doctor Qiu and left the Palace. Of course, your daughter could do the same. She would die after she entered the Palace, so she escaped. I believe that it won’t be long before the people in the Palace find your daughter. She will be shameful for the rest of her life and die in Prince Zhou’s Mansion without a title.”

Chu Liuchen acted as if he didn’t see Shao Jing get agitated. The black mist in his eyes deepened, and there was a kind of indiscernible evil spirit in his eyes, which was weird.

Shao Jing was so shocked that his face turned pale and his hands trembled. “No one else could know these things. How could Chu Liuchen know? And why is my daughter in Prince Zhou’s Mansion? I don’t believe it. That’s impossible. Since my daughter has been with Prince Cheng, she’s already his woman. Prince Cheng promised me that if he ascended the throne in the future, he would definitely give her a high position. Even if she can not be the Empress for the time being, she will do it with her ability.

“In the future, my branch would definitely stand out and rely on my daughter.

“The most important reason why I wanted E’niang to marry into the mansion is that I need my daughter to become my daughter once again. It sounds strange, but the meaning is very clear. Since my daughter faked her death and left the Palace, Shao Yanru would no longer exist in the world. In the future, when my daughter appears in public, she will also be E’niang’s daughter, as well as my legitimate daughter.

“As long as I recognize that, she will also appear in front of others with a legitimate reason. Since she will be known as my daughter, it will not be strange that we look alike. She’ll just need to live in seclusion and seldom go out. In the future, when she enters the Palace, ordinary people can not see her. As for those who see her, they won’t dare to talk nonsense. That is enough.

“But what did I just hear? He said that my daughter was sent to Prince Zhou’s Mansion and was with Prince Zhou without a title. My daughter has already had a relationship with Prince Cheng, so how could she go to Prince Zhou’s Mansion?”

“Shao Jing, do you think that Prince Cheng will protect Shao Yanru and your son? If I kill Shao Hua’an, do you think my uncle, who has just been demoted, dare to say anything?” Chu Liuchen smiled, and his beautiful eyes were calm, which made Shao Jing feel cold in his heart.

He knew that Chu Liuchen was not joking. He was telling the truth. Although his smile was gentle, his eyes were full of murderous intent. If he took action, Shao Jing’s son would not be able to escape.

Not only his son but also his daughter could not escape.

Shao Jing blinked hard and fell to the ground. After taking a few deep breaths, he felt that he had come back to life. “Eldest Brother was supposed to go to the south of the river after leaving the capital city, but later he got the imperial edict and went to the border to find a few pieces of calligraphy and paintings. I wanted to know if Eldest Brother had found them from Infanta Qinghua.”

Knowing that Shao Jing had broken down, Chu Liuchen no longer pressured him and asked lazily, “A few paintings and calligraphy works? What’s the use of them?”

“The calligraphy works and paintings indicate a place that refers to the Tiger Token of the deceased emperor.” Shao Jing felt pain all over his body. His faith, which could support him before, had collapsed. He answered whatever Chu Liuchen asked. He did not dare to disobey Chu Liuchen again. He clearly realized that his disobeying would not only have no effect but also put his children in danger.

He thought that Prince Chen was the most terrible person.

Others only thought that Prince Chen was seriously ill, so no one cared about him, a patient who had given up on himself. Who would have thought that he would become so powerful as soon as he recovered? He almost controlled everyone’s psychology and movements in his heart. Shao Jing smiled bitterly. “Even if Prince Cheng is willing to protect my daughter at this time, she’ll have no chance to escape.

“Prince Chen has already shown his true colors, and no one can escape from him. With his ruthless means, if I don’t compromise, I’ll have to die…”
