ortal enemies. Over hundreds of years, the number of corpses from both sides killed by each other could stretch from your Liao Kingdom's palace all the way to our capital city. Under such a deep-seate...Chapter 1381: From Human to Ghost

When Cai He entered the Prince's Mansion, Li Chen had already gotten up.

When Prince Ning arrived with Cai He, Li Chen was already done washing up and having breakfast.

Uncle Wang is here.

Li Chen glanced at King Ning and said, "Have you had breakfast Let's have some together."

King Ning said faintly, "I have already used it."

Li Chen's eyes swept over the woman beside King Ning. In his opinion, she was just average looking, about the same level as the woman from last night.

Could it be that Prince Ning wanted to use a beauty ploy on himself first thing in the morning

Thinking this way, Li Chen's expression also became playful as he asked, "Who is the woman by the prince's side"

"I, a humble maidservant, have had the honor of meeting Your Highness."

Before Unequal King could introduce her, Cai He proactively knelt down and said.

King Ning frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure at Cai He's taking initiative without permission. However, seeing Li Chen present, he held back his anger.

Then Cai He continued, “I am the daughter of a merchant from Jiangnan. Five years ago, I came to Jincheng with my father to do business. My intention was to broaden my horizons by following my father, but unexpectedly, I caught the eye of King Ning and was kept in Jincheng against my will, becoming a concubine that he tries to keep hidden.”

"While she's called a concubine, she's not even treated like a maidservant. She's kept locked away outside the palace, and only brought in when Prince Ning wants to satisfy his desires."

< Cai He, having said this, knelt heavily on the ground before Li Chen and kowtowed, saying loudly, "There are several women with fates as tragic as mine. I dare to ask Your Highness to be our master!" >

Cai He's words elicited an incredibly expressive reaction from King Ning.

At the same time, Li Chen was also taken aback.

He truly didn't expect such a thing to happen around the King of Ning.

To be honest, I'm not shocked that Prince Ning has women kept outside the palace. Frankly, this is nothing out of the ordinary. Don't even get me started on officials with a little bit of power - they all have three or four wives at home and a few young mistresses on the side.

This kind of thing is basically a default rule in society.

On the surface, it is unreasonable and illegal, but it makes sense.

It's something that can't be put on the table, no matter how much you break it down.

What truly shocked Li Chen was that the Prince of Ning didn't realize Cai He's intentions, leading her to make a fool of herself in front of him.

Just at that moment, the King Ning, who had regained his composure from his anger, kicked Cai He with a leg and roared: "You fool! You dare to insult and slander me this way!"

Slander is false, after all, even Li Chen doesn't need to investigate to know that Cai He said is absolutely true.

Abuse is real.

Cai He accused Ning Wang in person, which was more unbearable for Ning Wang than any humiliation.

Cai He let out a scream, her fragile body unable to withstand such a kick from the Prince Ning. She flew across the ground like a rolling gourd, crashing into the wall with a dull thud.

This kick completely took away Cai He's half of his life.

Pain struck violently, but Cai He, with her disheveled hair, had already thrown herself at Li Chen's mercy. She immediately flipped over and knelt before him, hissing, "Please, Your Highness, act as my champion!!!"

Li Chen remained silent.

Ning Wang let out a cruel laugh and said, "Foolish woman, you think the Crown Prince would care about you Things like this happen every day, everywhere. Could he possibly manage them all You think by complaining to the Crown Prince, I wouldn't be able to touch you I'll tell you, if I killed you right now, I'd still be the prince, and the Crown Prince would still be the Crown Prince. But you, you'd become a ghost!"y hatred, with almost no trace of humanity left.Looking at Li Yinhu who seemed almost insane, Zhao Xuanji said indifferently, "Do you know what you're called now""Rage against the powerless!""You're g...
