Strategy? I'm at full level and criticizing like crazy, taming sickly villains

Qin Jue sat on the stone bench, while Jiang Li bent down and stood in front of him for greater convenience.

At this moment, Qin Jue suddenly grabbed his wrist. Jiang Li subconsciously raised his head and ran into the dark eyes.

Their faces were so close that they could feel each other's breath intertwining.

Qin Jue's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and the next moment he reacted, he wanted to push the person away.

However, at this moment, a woman shouted angrily from the other side of the door, "What are you doing?!"

Jiang Li was frightened. He straightened up and took a few steps back. He looked at the person with panic and fear on his face, "...Mother!"

Seeing her reaction, Qin Jue felt inexplicably relieved... So, does she know how to be afraid?

Then, he heard the joy in Jiang Li's heart.

[Oops, the protagonist of this scene has finally arrived. He came so slowly that I almost couldn’t control myself in front of the beauty! 】

Qin Jue: "..."

He looked away expressionlessly, lowered his head and concentrated on getting dressed.

Although she didn't know what kind of tricks Jiang Li was playing, she was in control of the system. At least she wouldn't want to kill him, that's all.

The queen came angrily, and the palace attendant behind her also had the discernment to close the door in time to block the outside inquiring eyes.

Jiang Li lowered his head with a guilty look on his face and shouted pitifully again, "Mother..."

"You still know that I am your mother and queen! With such a noble status, how can you mix with such a bitch!"

The queen's face was livid, and she did not spare Qin Jie any dignity in what she said.

Qin Jue didn't show any anger, he seemed to be used to this.

Jiang Li looked scared, but he mustered up the courage to speak, "Queen Mother... I just saw that the emperor's brother was injured yesterday, so I came here to deliver medicine today..."

"Shut up!" The queen became even more angry. Her usual amiable demeanor disappeared, and she could only say one word through gritted teeth, "He is not your royal brother!"

Jiang Li hurriedly lowered his head, "Mother, calm down!"

The moment she lowered her head, she slightly raised the corners of her lips.

To talk about why the queen was so angry, we have to start with Qin Jue's life experience.

At that time, Qin Jue's biological mother was also a favorite concubine of the generation. She was deeply loved by Emperor Qing and therefore became a thorn in the side of many women, especially the queen.

So under the Queen's careful arrangements, half a year after Qin Jue's mother gave birth to him, she finally found an opportunity to frame him for having an affair with a guard.

In anger, Emperor Qing beheaded his biological mother's entire family, except for Qin Jue.

Because Emperor Qing had few heirs at that time, including Qin Jue, he had five sons, two of whom had died in infancy.

In addition, although his biological mother had an affair with a guard, she only discovered it after she gave birth to Qin Jue. This could not prove that Qin Jue was not the biological child of Emperor Qing, so Emperor Qing did not execute Qin Jue together.

But the so-called deep love and deep responsibility, how much Qin Jue's mother once doted on her, how much she hated her later.

Even he couldn't face Qin Jue, so he was finally thrown into the cold palace and handed over to an old woman to raise, leaving him to fend for himself.

The queen hated Qin Jue's biological mother. She originally wanted to kill Qin Jue too, but Emperor Qing accidentally discovered her little move.

Although Emperor Qing didn't like Qin Jue, he still spared his life because of his bloodline. How could he be happy to see the queen trying to kill him?

So he beat the queen so hard that she didn't dare to take action. She was even afraid that someone would use this to frame her, so she had to secretly save Qin Jue's life.

Later, as time passed, the queen forgot about him and never paid attention to him again.

But now that Jiang Li has been in contact with Qin Jue again and again, it has obviously awakened the queen's unpleasant memories.

At this time, she looked at Qin Jue with the same disgust as when she looked at his mother.

"I know how to show off my looks at a young age, and she looks exactly like that bitch!"

"I should never have kept you alive in the first place. I gave you a chance to live but I was ungrateful and did this to seduce the princess and mess up the harem!"

"Come here, give him to me..."

Seeing that the queen was so angry that she was about to deal with Qin Jue on the spot, Jiang Li hurriedly exclaimed, "Queen mother, calm down!"

"I really can't blame the emperor brother at this time. I came here all by myself. If the queen mother wants to punish me, then punish me!"

"Snapped!"

The queen couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Jiang Li on the face, "You bastard!"

Her slap was so firm that Jiang Li felt his face was burning, and the corners of his lips were broken, with a hint of sweetness oozing out.

The air seemed to be silent for a moment, and all the palace residents lowered their heads, trembling and not daring to make any sound.

Jiang Li covered the beaten half of his cheek and looked at the queen in disbelief, "Mother..."

This is the first time that the Queen has touched her since she adopted her. In the past, she always showed her pampering.

Seeing Jiang Li being beaten, Qin Jue was a little surprised. He moved subconsciously and wanted to hold her up, but he restrained himself.

...What does her being beaten have to do with him? It would be better to be beaten to death.

Probably because he still hated the queen more than the queen, so at this time, he felt a trace of pity in his heart for the relatively weak Jiang Li.

But soon, that trace of pity disappeared.

Because Qin Jue heard the conversation between System No. 007 and Jiang Li.

System No. 007: "Damn it, this old woman is too cruel. Host, are you okay?"

"Hey, you worked too hard to protect Qin Jue. Sure enough, you still remember your mission in your heart. I'm so touched!"

Jiang Li: "I'm so touched. Which of your eyes saw that I was protecting Qin Jue?"

"This is a wolf cub that has not yet been raised. Only a devil would fight for him."

"Don't you see that I am deliberately irritating the queen and asking her to beat me?"

As soon as these words came out, not only Qin Jue was stunned, but also the system.

"Ah? Why?"

The system stated that its brain circuit could no longer keep up with the host.

Jiang Li was too lazy to explain so much, so he only said, "Don't you know that the Flame Army just conquered a small country under the order, and Yang Jin will return to the court to report on his duties. Will it be here in the next two days?"

Yang Jin General Yang was once the deputy general of Jiang Li's father. He had been with him since he was a child and was loyal to the Jiang family.

Moreover, he is neither married nor has any children, and he has always treated Jiang Li as his own daughter. This is why Jiang Li can still be so domineering in the capital after the Jiang family's troubles.

The system immediately understood, "So...are you trying to get yourself out of trouble?"

"Otherwise?" Jiang Li said, "I never suffer losses in vain. The losses I suffer today will be paid back twice as much in the future. And this future is definitely not far away. Just wait and see."

Qin Jue heard her nonchalant tone and couldn't help but glance at her face.

The delicate face as big as a palm was swollen where it was hit, and it hurt even to look at it.

...It seems that she is not only cruel to others, but also cruel to herself.
