Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder's Daily Rise to Power and Face-Slapping

Chapter 357 Slapping the Face of the Incompetent Prince 16

Mo Ran's breath hitched slightly. He couldn't help but pull Leng Yuexing into his arms and lower his head to kiss her lips.

It was as if he wanted to grab Leng Yuexing whole, chew her up, and swallow her whole; his kisses were heavy and urgent!

“Ink…stain…” Leng Yuexing murmured.

His hand was pressed down by the ink, his fingers slowly interlocking until they were clasped together.

"I love you!" Mo Ran whispered as his hot breath brushed against Leng Yuexing's lips, his forehead pressed against Leng Yuexing's.

His Adam's apple bobbed violently, and the hand supporting Leng Yuexing's back clenched into a fist.

"I...I'll take you back to bed to rest," Mo Ran said softly.

"Mo Ran..."

Before Leng Yuexing could finish speaking, Mo Ran lowered his head and kissed her fiercely again, then said breathlessly, "Be good, I can't hold back any longer."

"Or are you willing to give it to me now?" Mo Ran asked in a low voice.

Leng Yuexing reached out and pressed Xiao Yuexing down, then smiled slightly at Mo Ran, "It's not that I'm unwilling, it's just... there's something I haven't told you yet."

Leng Yuexing knows his lover too well; he's even jealous of his own alter ego, even when they share the same body.

Now the soul is divided into four parts, and also possesses four bodies. If...

Wouldn't that mean killing yourself?

Thinking of that terrible possibility, Leng Yuexing decided to get a good night's sleep and deal with the matter later.

After thinking it over, Leng Yuexing wrapped her arms around Mo Ran's neck and whispered, "I promise, once I tell you about this, you can do whatever you want!"

"Anything is fine with me?" Mo Ran gently stroked Leng Yuexing's cheek.

Leng Yuexing nodded and smiled, "Mm!"

The next instant, Mo Ran hugged Leng Yuexing and jumped off the beam.

Gently placing Leng Yuexing on the bed, Mo Ran held her hand and said, "Okay, I'll wait."

Then Mo Ran placed his palm over Leng Yuexing's eyes and whispered, "Go to sleep, I'll stay here with you!"

Leng Yuexing blinked his long eyelashes, then scurried into the bed, patted the outer half of the bed, and said, "Weren't you going to protect me closely? Then this half of the bed is yours."

Upon hearing this, Mo Ran released Leng Yuexing's hand, took off his outer robe, and climbed onto the bed. He then pulled Leng Yuexing into his arms without giving her a chance to refuse.

After a sleepless night, Leng Yuexing got up early the next morning to attend court, and Mo Ran also left Leng Yuexing's room, taking his palace pass and leaving the palace.

A month passed by in a flash.

The emperor had previously said that if Leng Yuexing could establish himself in the court within three months, he would appoint Leng Yuexing as the crown prince.

Little did he expect that in just one month, Leng Yuexing would shine brightly in the court and gain the support of many important officials.

What the emperor didn't know was that Leng Yuexing's four husbands and their families were also doing everything in their power to support her.

The Third Prince Ling Xi watched as his position in the court gradually became precarious, and his maternal clan was also constantly suppressed by the emperor.

He knew perfectly well that his father would not give him the position of crown prince. In the dead of night, he secretly went to the residence of the current prime minister, which was also his uncle's residence, to plot a grand scheme with him.

But before he even entered the room, he overheard his conversation with several of his staff.

Upon hearing that they were prepared to storm the palace the next day, he angrily pushed open the door.

"Uncle! You clearly promised to wait for my news, how can you act on your own now?" Ling Xi shouted.

The prime minister, who was talking with his advisors, saw Ling Xi barge in and went up to him with an embarrassed smile, offering a long apology.

Only after Ling Xi calmed down and left did he angrily sweep the teacup on the table onto the floor.

"Hmph! If we hadn't made arrangements in advance, he wouldn't have had a chance to speak right now! What a complete idiot!"

The advisor bowed and stepped forward, saying, "Prime Minister, please don't be angry. It is precisely because of this that the Third Prince is easy for us to control."

The prime minister sneered upon hearing this, "You're right. Only if someone like this becomes emperor will it be most beneficial for us."

Then, the prime minister picked up a sketch of the palace and began to speak quietly with his advisors.

They talked all night, and the next day the prime minister claimed to be ill and stayed home, not attending court.

Leng Yuexing talked with the emperor for a whole morning, and only returned to the East Palace after lunch.

In the evening, Leng Yuexing was playing chess with Wen Yunsheng in the East Palace when Mo Ran, who was watching from the side, suddenly stepped forward and whispered, "They're here."

It was only four characters, but both Leng Yuexing and Wen Yunsheng knew what "Mo Ran" referred to.

Leng Yuexing slowly placed the last chess piece down. "Finally here. You didn't keep us waiting long."

Wen Yunsheng waved his fan and chuckled, "I'll go with you."

Ye Qingchen chuckled softly, "Me too."

Leng Yuexing stood up. "Let's go, let's go save Father."

Leng Yuexing and the others walked along a side path toward the emperor's bedroom.

They heard no fighting along the way, because the Third Prince and the Prime Minister led their soldiers through the palace gates and stormed into the Emperor's bedroom as if it were empty.

Although the prime minister had his doubts, things had come to this point, and he was in a dilemma, with no choice but to fight back.

When he saw the Imperial Guards suddenly appear in front of him, his heart filled with unease, it was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, leaving him feeling extremely cold.

"It's over, everything is over," the Prime Minister murmured.

The Third Prince Ling Xi didn't understand what the Prime Minister was talking about. In his opinion, there would be a battle if they stormed into the palace, and with so many of them, they would definitely be able to defeat the Imperial Guards.

Then he roared, "Kill them!"

In the next instant, the soldiers behind him rushed towards the Imperial Guards who were waiting in front.

The soldiers all had ferocious expressions on their faces, and their eyes gleamed with greed and madness.

They knew very well that as long as they could defeat these Imperial Guards and successfully kill the Emperor, endless wealth and power would be theirs!

In an instant, shouts of battle rose up everywhere, and roars echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

They never expected that when their swords clashed with the Imperial Guards, the swords would shatter into dust like tofu.

The armor they wore was sliced ​​off by the Imperial Guards' swords as easily as cutting vegetables.

Not long afterward, those soldiers were all wiped out by the Imperial Guards.

Leng Yuexing stood in front of the emperor's bedroom, and Chu Mu, covered in blood, walked towards her.

He knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice to Leng Yuexing, "I have exterminated all the traitors!"

Leng Yuexing stepped forward and helped Chu Mu up. "You've worked hard! Tie up the Third Prince and the Prime Minister and hand them over to Father Emperor for judgment!"

Chu Mu waved his hand behind him, "Bring them here!"
