Chapter 293: How Many More Men Are You Going to Like?

Li Hongyuan stammered, "Why are you staring at me so intently?"

"I was just wondering, what are the chances of you rebelling?"

"...You really do dare to say anything. It's lucky that it's me hearing this, or else..."

"Or else what?"

"If it were the Princess Consort of Huai, the Prince of Huai would have slapped her ears off."

"Let's see if you dare to slap me."

"In the past, I could. But not now."

"Why not?"

"Because I like you."

"I was asking seriously."

"Impossible." Li Hongyuan said, "I will fight for it, but I will not rebel. If I can't become the Emperor, I'll be the Prince of Yu."

"But just after the Prince of Huai took power, he forced you to leave Chang'an City. Once he truly becomes the Emperor, would he let you live?"

"Even if he becomes the Emperor, to kill me, he would need a legitimate reason."

"Alright, it's good that you think this way. After all, contentment brings happiness." Jiang Ning said.
