Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart Chapter 699 - What Was His Majesty Planning To Do

Chapter 699 - What Was His Majesty Planning To Do

Beauty Lin looked pale as she followed behind him. Right behind them were the other officials with strange looks on their faces.
Lu Liangwei approached Long Yang and asked with concern, "Is the Crown Prince alright?"
Long Yang held her hand while giving Long Chi a weird look before replying, "The Crown Prince is fine."
"That's good to know." Lu Liangwei gave the perfect reaction. She was showing concern as an Empress, neither sounding overly worried nor being too cold.
Long Chi had never expected Lu Liangwei to be present. When he heard her voice, a dark cloud covered his face. He had never felt so embarrassed in his life. He wished fervently that everyone present was blind and was unable to see that shameful scene.
His ailment had seen no improvement for many days and it was right then that Beauty Lin had decided to offer herself to him. Long Chi was reminded of what the physician had shared with him. Such an ailment of his would sometimes require external help, such as a new environment, to give him some encouragement.
The surrounding forest right outside the enclosure was fairly thick, so he decided to bring Beauty Lin to this place.
He was not disappointed at all when Beauty Lin began shedding her clothes as he felt something stirring within him very soon.
He wondered if it was because of a change in environment, or if it was because of the alluring body of Beauty Lin. He was finally seeing an improvement in this ailment that had bothered him for many days.
Long Chi was utterly delighted.
However, just as he was about to get into the mood, he suddenly heard a huge bang and, the next thing he knew, a cloud of smoke rose. Before he was able to react to it, he had passed out.
He would never have hurriedly brought Beauty Lin to this place if he knew he was about to suffer such misfortune.
Alas, no one could read the future, and he did not know that the poison Ling Lihua gave him had a time limit. He would have gone back to normal after a few days. However, after the scare he had suffered today, he had developed post-traumatic disorder and it would now be even more difficult for him to perform compared to before.
"Your Highness." Long Chi forced himself to bow at Lu Liangwei. He did not dare lift his head in fear that he would see the look of disdain in her eyes.
"You may rise. I can tell that you and Beauty Lin do not look well. You should quickly return for some rest." Lu Liangwei displayed her graciousness as a senior and spoke with concern to both of them.
Long Chi was actually slightly touched by this.
He certainly wants to return as soon as possible in order to avoid the judging gazes from everyone looking at him.
He was about to thank her when his Royal Uncle interrupted him on purpose. "By the way, Chi'er, you said that you heard a loud bang, then you smelt coma-inducing medicine and passed out right after that?"
Long Chi did not care in the slightest if there were assassins about. All he wanted was to quickly leave the place.
However, his Royal Uncle had asked a question and Long Chi could only force himself to suppress his frustration to reply respectfully, "That's right."
Long Yang looked like he was deep in thought. He darted a look at Lu Liangwei and saw that she looked as if she had no idea what he was talking about. He smiled secretly in his heart.
When Long Yang learned that Long Chi had heard a bang right before passing out and had even smelt coma-inducing medicine, he could already guess the person responsible for Long Chi's bad luck today.
However, why was he feeling so happy about the Crown Prince's bad luck?
Although…
Long Yang remembered something and gave Lu Liangwei a long, thoughtful look.
Lu Liangwei went numb when she saw his look. What was His Majesty planning?
Long Yang quickly turned his gaze away and gave orders to the guard behind him. "It looks like there might be assassins within the enclosure. Search this place thoroughly. The assassin who harmed the Crown Prince must be found."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The guards roared back in reply. The worry in their hearts had finally been lifted.
They had been worried if they would be killed for witnessing the Crown Prince's embarrassment, but it now looked like His Majesty did not plan to have them executed.
