Chapter 153 Jia Xu’s design, Li Chengqian’s death

In the back garden of Prince Qin's mansion.

Li Chengqian hugged his knees and sat on the ground in a daze. He didn't touch the food on the table brought by Zhang Sun Wugu.

"Did I really do something wrong?"

Li Chengqian looked at his right hand and murmured to himself. He used this hand to stab Li Chengdao that day.

After being caught by Li Chengdao and seeing Li Chengdao killing his brothers and sisters in front of him, he regarded Li Chengdao as a nightmare and had been pretending to be an ordinary child to avoid prying eyes and look for opportunities.

He felt that what he did was right. Whether it was his uncle Changsun Wuji or his father Li Shimin, they had always taught him various tactics and forbearance techniques, and he learned them very well.

As long as Li Chengdao is killed, isn't he the only royal descendant qualified to succeed?And what's wrong with him avenging his father? Why is his mother and concubine so angry? Doesn't she hate Li Chengdao at all?

Li Chengqian never understood this, because he never believed that Li Chengdao would really save his life.

Maybe I won't kill him now out of honor, but one day I will quietly wipe him out.

Because if it were him, he would do this, and his father would do the same, because his existence is the most unstable threat to the throne.

It was precisely because of this strong sense of uneasiness that he chose to fight to the death.

"The mother-in-law's idea is really too naive."

Li Chengqian withdrew his gaze, his young face full of sadness.

He looked up at the huge, deserted back garden, and couldn't help but feel a strong sense of loneliness and confusion. Who else could he rely on now?Even if he wanted to resist, who could he ask for help?

It was no use crying and begging to his mother and concubine today. He really didn't know what to do.

Just when Li Chengqian was confused, several servants walked into the garden and walked towards the pavilion.

There were still servants and maids in Prince Qin's house, so Li Chengqian was not surprised and asked somewhat sadly: "Has the mother-in-law left already?"

The leading servant bowed and said, "Go back to Your Highness. The princess has already left, but she asked me to tell you something."

"What?"

Li Chengqian's eyes lit up, he stood up directly, and then asked excitedly.

He knew that it was impossible for his mother-in-law to really ignore him!

The servant looked around warily, and Li Chengqian simply approached him when he saw his appearance.

Then he heard the servant whisper: "The princess said... In order to preserve the eldest grandson family, I hope that your highness will die."

"The meal I brought here today is the last bond between you and her mother and son. Please take care of yourself, Your Highness."

After Li Chengqian heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning and stood stunned on the spot.

He froze in place for a long time, and every detail of Changsun Wugou's relationship with him flashed through his mind. Finally, the picture stopped at Changsun Wugou's face, which had been as indifferent to him as a stranger in the past few days.

"Mother-in-law... So in your eyes, family is more important than me?"

Li Chengqian turned pale and said with a sad smile.

He finally understood why his mother-in-law refused to help him and take revenge on Li Chengdao, because in her eyes, preserving the eldest grandson family was the most important thing. Why should she risk the eldest grandson's family to help him?

If he accepted the relegation honestly, even if he would still be killed by Li Chengdao in the future, the Changsun family could continue to exist. However, he refused to be relegated!Now the fate of the entire Changsun family has become uncertain along with him.

"I see... I see... No wonder the mother-in-law is so angry..."

The luster in Li Chengqian's eyes gradually disappeared, and in the end, only the despair was left.

He left the back garden in despair and returned to the study.

Prince Qin's Mansion was the residence where his father lived when he was not Admiral Tiance. Now all the furnishings in the study are the same as before, but the people and things have changed.

After returning to the study, Li Chengqian studied ink and wrote a final letter, and then dug out a delicate and short dagger from an inconspicuous corner of the bookshelf.

This was given to him by his father.

Looking at the dagger, Li Chengqian's face turned pale, sweat was pouring from his forehead, and the hand holding the dagger could not help but tremble.

He doesn't want to die, but what's the point of living for a person who even wants his mother to die?
Finally, he suddenly burst into tears and at the same time thrust the dagger into his chest!

The blood immediately dyed his prince's brocade robe red. Li Chengqian lay on the desk, his little cheeks gradually losing their vitality.

"Mother concubine..."

……

Outside the study, after the servant saw the situation in the study, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and felt chills all over his body.

"Master Jia is really terrible... just one sentence actually made Li Chengqian commit suicide..."

There was a hint of fear in the servant's eyes.

He just followed Jia Xu's order to wait and see for a few days, and then conveyed to Li Chengqian exactly what Jia Xu asked him to say, but he didn't expect that he actually made Li Chengqian commit suicide!
This calculation about people's hearts made him feel cold all over.

"let's start."

After taking a deep look at Li Chengqian's body, the servant looked back and said to the two subordinates behind him who were also dressed as servants.

The two nodded, and after a while, a burst of frightened shouts spread throughout the entire Qin Prince's Mansion.

"Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly! The prince has committed suicide!"

……

Outside Prince Qin's Mansion, in an inconspicuous alley.

A black carriage stopped here. Jia Xu was sitting in the carriage. After hearing the faint commotion coming from Prince Qin's palace, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.

"Let's go back to the house. We have to come here with His Highness later."

Jia Xu withdrew his gaze and calmly gave instructions to the coachman.

"Yes, my lord."

The coachman responded respectfully, then drove the carriage and disappeared into the alley.

Behind them, a large number of imperial guards were rushing toward the mansion in panic.
