My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!

Chapter 488 331: Taking Over_3



"Moreover, do you not know what kind of person the Fourth Prince is? In the past, in order to collect treasures, he forced buying and selling, using tricks and violence, causing many deaths, countless people ruined by him, families shattered..."

"His brother-in-law raped a good woman in front of her husband, and the couple later committed suicide together. This matter was also suppressed by the Fourth Prince using his influence..."

"If the Fourth Prince becomes the Emperor, will you still have good days ahead?"

"What?"

"There's actually such a thing?"

"Is it true or false?"

Many commoners were hearing about these matters for the first time and after inquiring amongst themselves, someone then remembered, it seemed there indeed were such rumors at that time, but they were never confirmed, and gradually no one mentioned them anymore.

In the past two months, the Fourth Prince has been doing things beneficial to the country and people, few would associate these matters with him.

Yiren, who was personally selecting ingredients, did not notice people's discussions, but Li Nuo heard it very clearly.

This was certainly not an ordinary discussion.

It was very obvious that someone was deliberately guiding public opinion from behind the scenes.

And without guessing, it was known who was behind it.

They must be one of the three Princes, or perhaps multiple ones.

These days, the Fourth Prince monopolized the limelight, which was very unfavorable for the other three Princes; they must be taking measures to retaliate.

However, Li Nuo could not judge whether they were maliciously fabricating stories or attacking based on facts.

All along, he had been dealing with the Sixth Princess.

He trusted the Sixth Princess's character, but he did not know what kind of person the Fourth Prince was...

When the two of them returned to the Princess Mansion, Li Nuo found the Sixth Princess sitting in the small courtyard, frowning.

He asked Yiren to put the vegetables in the kitchen, walked to her side, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Zhiyi stood up and said, "There are some unfavorable rumors about my elder brother outside, it should be released by the other three elder brothers."

Li Nuo said, "I also heard about it while buying vegetables with Yiren."

Zhao Zhiyi did not know how to handle this kind of thing.

To let it be ignored was certainly not an option.

But to clarify, there seemed to be no way.

Once mishandled, the more it was explained, the worse it could get.

When it came to dealing with rumors, Li Nuo certainly had a solution.

At times like this, one cannot fall into the trap of self-justification.

A person can only prove what they have done, not what they haven't done.

If others can spread rumors, they can spread rumors too, making up rumors about the three Princes in return, thoroughly muddying the waters, so no one benefits and no one suffers.

They remain in the lead.

But before that, he had to understand one thing.

He looked at Zhao Zhiyi and asked, "Are those matters really all slandering the Fourth Prince?"

Zhao Zhiyi nodded and said, "Of course..."

She had only said one word when she suddenly remembered, at that time she was still young, and when she lived in the palace with Mother, her elder brother seemed to have been punished by Mother and made to kneel for a long time because of something.

She did not definitively tell Li Nuo, and after thinking it over, said, "I'll go ask my elder brother."

King Sheng Mansion.

From a grand hall emanated the furious voice of King Sheng.

"What?"

"They dare so much!"

"Go tell the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice to arrest all those spreading the rumors for this king!"

A figure walked in from outside; he looked over and asked, "Sixth sister, why have you come?"

Zhao Zhiyi said, "I heard some rumors outside that are unfavorable to my elder brother."

With a dark face, the Fourth Prince said, "It must be done by King Shun, King An, and King Xiang, they can't face me openly, only resorting to such dirty tricks behind my back. Don't worry, I have already sent people to deal with it..."

Zhao Zhiyi asked, "How to deal with it?"

The Fourth Prince said, "Whoever dares to speak recklessly, just arrest them and send them to the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice!"

Zhao Zhiyi shook her head and said, "You can't do that, this will not only fail to solve the problem but will also backfire."

Then, she looked at the Fourth Prince and asked, "Elder brother, have you really never done those things?"

The Fourth Prince shook his head and said, "Of course, do you not believe your elder brother?"

Zhao Zhiyi looked at him, let out a gentle sigh, and said, "Then I will go back first. Elder brother, don't be anxious; I will find a way to handle this matter..."

After watching her leave the hall, the Fourth Prince's face gradually darkened, and he instructed a follower beside him, "Move those few items to another place first. Also, send someone to warn them; if they dare to speak recklessly and ruin my major plans, I will annihilate their entire family..."

After the follower left, his face turned even darker, and he said, "Damn it, if only I hadn't left such a future trouble back then!"

No, if he had known these things would become obstacles in his fight for the throne, he perhaps wouldn't have done them.

At that time, he was not favored by the Father Emperor and thought he would be just an idle prince in this lifetime, so he did things without considering the consequences.

Who would have thought that one day he would be fighting for the Imperial Throne.

While he was regretting in his heart, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, "Sixth Princess, you..."

The Fourth Prince's face changed; he walked out of the hall and saw Zhao Zhiyi standing outside the door, looking at him with a look of disbelief.

He moved his lips slightly and whispered, "Zhiyi, why haven't you gone back yet?"

Zhao Zhiyi looked at him with shock and disappointment, muttering, "So those were not just rumors..."

They were just small matters, knowing his sister's character, he hadn't told her, but he hadn't expected her to find out.

With helplessness, the Fourth Prince said, "Zhiyi, elder brother is very busy now, don't add to my troubles, just go back first..."

Zhao Zhiyi left King Sheng Mansion in a daze.

She didn't know how she walked back to the Princess Mansion. All along, she knew her elder brother had no talents, but she hadn't known he engaged in such nefarious deeds.

This was the first time she doubted Master Gongsun's words.

Her heart was in turmoil; after returning to the mansion, she didn't see Li Nuo but instead went back to her own room.

At the moment she pushed open the door, a gust of wind blew in from outside, and she heard a light sound in her ear.

It seemed as if something had fallen to the ground.

She walked forward and saw an envelope.

She looked up again and found it had fallen from the beam.

How could there be a letter on the beam of her room?

She looked at the envelope; there was no signature on it.

She opened the envelope; at first glance, her body involuntarily trembled slightly.

They were the words of Master Gongsun; she knew them well.

Master Gongsun was already dead, which meant this letter was placed here by her before her death.

But why didn't she give it to her back then?

She looked at the content of the letter.

The letter had only two short lines.

King Sheng is without virtue.

Your Highness can replace him.
