159 They Were Going to Act in a Play (1/2)

Princess Lingchen tilted her head sideways as she stared at the man before her. A smile graced her lips before she spoke, ”Why do you want to help me? Are you not afraid that your brother will accuse you as a traitor?”

”My half brother is using my death as the reason to attack Da Cheng when he was the one who wanted me dead,” Lu Wei said. He took a deep breath and continued, ”You had helped me so much in the past when he tried to kill me. If I did not help you, heaven would punish me.”

The Crown Princess exchanged her glance with Jiang Xiao Tian before she looked at Lu Wei. She tapped her fingers on the table as she weighed her decision.

”Besides,” Lu Wei continued when the Princess did not say anything. ”You could say that you were helping me, as well. I have some matters that I'm going to need your help as well. It's a win-win situation.”

”What exactly are you planning to do?”

”Of course, I am going to reveal to them that I am still alive.”

Princess Lingchen was surprised by his answer. Back then, didn't he said that he did not want to let the Emperor of Qian Rong that he was still alive? He wanted to live life freely and no longer entangled with the imperial family of Qian Rong. What changed his mind? The Princess then asked the question on her mind.

”I have recently found out something during my visit to Qian Rong,” Lu Wei said. ”You could say that I hold a grudge against him.”

”Will this cause the Emperor of Qian Rong to fall from his position.”

”Maybe,” Lu Wei shrugged lazily.

”What if the citizen of Da Cheng no longer want him as the Emperor? I know that your brother has a son, but he is not old enough to ascend the throne. Will you step up as a successor?” Princess Lingchen asked.

Lu Wei was silent for a while. He looked up with a firm look in his gaze as he answered, ”Yes.”

A small smile curved on the Princess' lips. In the end, he had chosen to ascend Qian Rong's throne. Lu Wei definitely had changed after years. ”Well then, tell me your plan. How can I help you?”

The two of them discussed their plan for hours. They were going to reveal that Prince Lu Wei was still alive and the Emperor was the one who tried to kill him off. Back then, they had released a few mercenaries sent by the Emperor. Jiang Xiao Tian had sent a few of his trusted men to shadow those mercenaries back to Qian Rong.

After the Emperor received news that his half brother was dead, he immediately tried to kill off those mercenaries. However, Jiang Xiao Tian's men had managed to save the head of mercenaries, who was almost in his last breath.

They have evidence of the Emperor of Qian Rong's ruthlessness.
