Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 341 - 7: Princess (Part 7)

Li Shuning took more than ten days to recover from her injuries, and the bruises and swelling on her body slightly subsided.

At this moment, Li Shuning was lying on a soft couch, holding a jar of fruit in her hand, eating the fruit while watching the drama unfold.

Li Shuning didn’t have her own people, so naturally, she couldn’t send someone to keep an eye on Li Shuchen. Even if she had such people, she couldn’t do that.

Li Shuning had been an Empress in other worlds, and Yun Zimo had been an Emperor. Naturally, she understood that an emperor’s control over the Imperial City was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

She believed that if she dared to send someone to watch the Eldest Prince today, and the Emperor wanted to investigate, he would find out immediately.

So she wouldn’t do such things.

Before she met him, she merely hinted a few words cautiously, and the Emperor already had a sense. Then he went to investigate, and it would be surprising if the Eldest Prince came out well.

Haven’t you noticed how the Emperor has been somewhat cold and indifferent towards the Eldest Prince afterward?

She wanted the Emperor to know that she was harmless, weak, and no threat.

In the royal family, familial affection is the weakest of bonds. If not carefully cultivated, how can one always remain the softest comfort in the Emperor’s heart?

The hovercar was watching the Eldest Prince, but Li Shuning placed the display screen in the Qiankun Ring. To enjoy the show, all she needed to do was enter the Qiankun Ring with her spiritual power to watch.

The Eldest Prince felt that nothing was going right lately.

Towards his sister, to be truthful, the Eldest Prince had no particular feelings, merely considering her a piece that could help him gain his father’s attention.

However, this piece had encountered some unexpected events recently.

Regarding the Shao Yao incident that day, he later found out it wasn’t that his sister discovered anything; it was truly accidental. However, without Shao Yao, he naturally couldn’t get information from Lanxin Hall.

Afterward, he tried to find other palace maids, but all those maids were personally selected by his father, so he didn’t dare make any big moves. In the end, it came to nothing.

Moreover, his father had been somewhat cold to him lately, leaving him puzzled. He was the legitimate eldest son, while Xiao Six was merely a princess. Why was his father so kind to Xiao Six and so harsh to him?

In the Imperial Palace, enemies lurked everywhere. Not wanting to die, and being only thirteen after all, he thought of going out for a stroll to get some fresh air during this day off.

The Eldest Prince, accompanied by guards, strolled down the bustling street, and his mood inexplicably improved.

"Miss, what are you looking at?" Xiao Cui curiously asked Su Zi.

Su Zi was sitting in the teahouse, watching the young man below.

The Su Family were Imperial Merchants and had their own methods of gauging people. Her father had great expectations for her, so he had shared some things with her.

The fair-skinned boy below, his identity was likely not simple.

The Jade Pendant on his waist was worth a fortune, and the folding fan in his hand was even more remarkable.

Moreover, he was followed by four guards, who were evidently not ordinary.

When she went out, she also brought guards, but the air about them was entirely different.

Su Zi also noticed that the inner clothing the young man inadvertently revealed was a pale yellow color.

This man should be someone from the Imperial Family.

Su Zi was somewhat excited. After coming into this world, she genuinely felt the significance of identity.

She knew many things and had earned a lot of money for her father, making the Su Family wealthier and wealthier. But even so, their family was nothing in the eyes of those nobles.

She also saw her father, whom she regarded as wise and open-minded, bowing and scraping in front of those dignitaries.

Recently, a profligate young man had taken a liking to her, even pursuing her to the Su Family, wanting to take her as a concubine. How could she possibly consent?

She urgently needed to escape this situation. She was already fifteen, an age at which one could marry in this time.

The young man on the street seemed very young, with eyes lacking much worldly experience. If she could manage a conversation, perhaps... Su Zi’s eyes gleamed with a calculated look.

"Miss, that person has come after us again. We came here to hide, but he’s still chasing us. What should we do?"

Su Zi smiled. It’s better he’s chasing. She came here, and this body happened to be beautiful. As a woman, isn’t that the best bargaining chip? Since that person chased her here, he could be used as a trial by fire.

Su Zi stood up: "Xiao Cui, let’s go."

The two quickly headed downstairs. Shortly after Su Zi left the shop, a man holding a fan, followed by several guards, came grandly towards the shop where Su Zi had been.

Before entering, the man’s eyes lit up as he spotted that woman.

Hey, something’s off. The woman he had his eyes on was actually talking to another man, and it was merely a young brat.

Qi Hao felt a sense of betrayal and charged furiously at the Eldest Prince.

Su Zi, with Xiao Cui, approached the Eldest Prince and saw that he was looking at a dagger on a street stall, while also glancing at other items on the stall.

The dagger looked quite delicate, with patterns on it, quite beautiful.

Su Zi stepped forward and grabbed a comb from the stall.

As Su Zi touched the comb, Li Shuchen happened to see a Jade Ring next to it.

Their hands accidentally touched each other.

Su Zi immediately looked up, and their eyes met.

The Eldest Prince saw a pair of misty eyes that gave him an urge to explore further.

Su Zi’s face flushed deeply, and she softly said, "Young master, you..."

Earlier, the touch was brief, but the Eldest Prince felt the girl’s hand was so smooth, so white, that it made him want to hold on to it.

Since coming to this world, Su Zi had been meticulous about her upkeep, so her skin was snowy white, better than most people’s.

Su Zi stood up, as if trying to flee, and the Eldest Prince quickly stood up too: "Miss, I apologize, I was a bit abrupt. Are you alright?"

Su Zi had seen many men, even in her time, meineu and celebrities were dime a dozen. The young man in front of her just appeared more aristocratic.

However, Su Zi still blushed. Otherwise, how could she win his goodwill? And this scene was just witnessed by the enraged Qi Hao approaching.

Qi Hao, as if catching them in the act, furiously charged at the Eldest Prince, throwing a punch.

Yet the guards by the Eldest Prince’s side were not pushovers; they stepped forward and grabbed Qi Hao’s hand, causing him to howl like a pig being slaughtered.

Su Zi covered her mouth. The Qi Family wasn’t ordinary either, yet this person actually punched the other. Hopefully, it would be alright?

Does he not know the Qi Family or is he stronger than them?

If this man can’t handle it, I fear I might indeed have to become someone’s concubine.
