C243 Even If We Die We Still Have to Pay a Price
Aa Tia didn't notice that after this kiss, he turned around and left.
Sensing that he had left, Princess Changle opened her eyes, and her hand that had been holding the dagger loosened its grip.
She smiled wryly.
As long as he was by her side …
He wondered how Xuan Er would feel if she heard that phone call.
Xuan Er liked Aa Tia. This was something that Princess Changle had seen before. Now that she had done such a thing, Princess Changle had a feeling that many things might come to an end.
At this time, in the prison of Yingjia.
When King Lingsu and Grand Consort Lan came in, Lee Wanning was sitting on the floor sleeping. Her hands were hugging her knees. Her thin body was shivering on the cold ground.
Grand Consort Lan glanced at the person beside her, and that person immediately understood her meaning. He walked up to her and picked up a bucket of water, pouring it on Lee Wanning.
Lee Wanning shuddered and opened her eyes.
Grand Consort Lan and King Lingsu were looking at him.
Lee Wanning wiped her face and said, "Greetings, Grand Consort Dowager."
After not seeing Lee Wanning give him his luggage for a long time, King Lingsu immediately frowned and said, "Why isn't it expensive to see me?"
Me?
Lee Wanning only smiled when she heard that. She looked at King Lingsu and said, "King Lingsu's words are really funny. As the empress dowager of a nation, do I need to kneel and worship to you?"
King Lingsu smiled and went up to catch Lee Wanning's chin.
He exerted a lot of strength, and it was as if he was going to crush Lee Wanning's jaw, causing her to frown instantly.
She wanted to struggle free, but King Lingsu opened his mouth first and said, "Empress Dowager Lee really doesn't give up. Do you know what's going on outside? "Do you still think you're Empress Dowager?"
Lee Wanning looked at him calmly and said, "I only know one thing. If your name isn't proper, then it doesn't make sense."
King Lingsu's eyes immediately darkened. Before he could say anything, Grand Consort Lan already walked up and said, "Lee Wanning, there's no need to put on airs with me here. I know what you're thinking. Right now, Zhou Qu is leading the troops outside the city, and the matters of Xiliang have not been settled yet. It is not a good thing for us to mess things up first. "As long as you succeed in persuading Zhou Qu, I'll guarantee your safety!"
Hearing Grand Consort Lan's words, Lee Wanning started to laugh. She looked at the people in front of her and said, "Grand Consort Dowager, your words are really funny. Isn't General Zhou with you guys? Why did you let me convince him? "
What Lee Wanning said caused Grand Consort Lan's eyes to sink.
Lee Wanning flicked the dust off her body. Ignoring the fact that her hair was still wet, she stood up and looked at the person in front of her, "Grand Consort Dowager, King Lingsu, we all know very well which General Zhou is real and which one is fake. We both know what you guys want and I know what you guys want."
King Lingsu looked at the woman in front of him and squinted his eyes.
Previously, he had heard Lee Wanning's name. Even though she was a woman, and even though the entire Yingjia Nation had been torn into pieces, she could endure for so many years, and even kill Prince Regent. This kind of thing, was definitely not something an ordinary woman could do.
Actually, King Lingsu wasn't the late emperor's child at all.
What brother of Prince Regent, that was all a lie. It was just an excuse that could allow him to smoothly inherit the throne!
He didn't even know who his father was. Grand Consort Lan had wanted to get him out after Ann Tan died, but she didn't expect that Ann Tan had left a child and a Prince Regent.
However, it was all thanks to Prince Regent. If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have realized that Lee Wanning was no ordinary person and wouldn't have carefully prepared all the way until today.
It was unknown what method Lee Wanning used to make Zhou Qu be loyal to her.
Actually, Zhou Qu wasn't a problem. After all, there were many talents in the martial arts world, so Zhou Qu wasn't the only one.
Right now, Zhou Qu was using those horses to negotiate with him. He said that if anything happened to Lee Wanning, he would immediately retreat all the soldiers and horses from the border and attack the Capital City.
Of course he couldn't do that. If this country were to fall, what was the point of this fallen emperor in front of them?
She only looked at Grand Consort Lan and said, "If King Lingsu really gives the citizens of Yingjia some benefits, it's not that I can't withdraw from the throne, but you have to tell me, in this game, what role are you playing?"
Zhou Qu's heart was in chaos.
He was not joking. If something really happened to Lee Wanning, he would unhesitatingly fight it out with King Lingsu to the death!
The Yingjia Nation had died … Then die!
Just as Zhou Qu was thinking this, he heard a voice from outside, "General Zhou, someone is coming from the palace."
Hearing the sound, Zhou Qu immediately stood up. When he walked out, he saw that person walking over.
Zhou Qu also knew that person, it was Lord Zhao.
When he saw him, Lord Zhao smiled brightly and said, "General Zhou, how have you been?"
Zhou Qu's face was solemn as he said, "That's right. But think about it, in just two months' time, Lord Zhao has already become someone else's master. Thinking about it, he is really unpredictable!"
Lord Zhao knew that Zhou Qu wanted to mock him. After the expression on his face changed, he quickly smiled and said, "General Zhou is really that. What did he say? A wise man is wise. "
"Empress Dowager Lee was good to you before, wasn't she?" If you just go on like this, you'll be considered a true hero! "
Seeing that Zhou Qu was always mocking him, Lord Zhao's expression changed again and again. Finally, he couldn't hold it in anymore and said, "General Zhou, I came here today to tell you about Empress Dowager Lee."
After hearing what Lord Zhao said, Zhou Qu's expression improved a little. He looked at him and said, "What is it?"
"The Emperor has already agreed. As long as General Zhou can hand over the military power, we will release Empress Dowager Lee."
As if he had heard something funny, Zhou Qu started to laugh. He looked at the person in front of him and said, "Master Zhao, does your master think I'm stupid? If this military power is handed over, what will happen to us? Isn't this something that I wouldn't have expected? "
"But General Zhou, the thing you need to know is that this world is a place with the surname An!"
"Why don't I feel like King Lingsu's surname is An?!"
Zhou Qu's words immediately caused Lord Zhao's expression to change. He looked at Zhou Qu and said, "General Zhou, you can't speak carelessly. This is a death sentence …"
"Killed the head?" Zhou Qu sneered and said, "I don't care what King Lingsu is, I only know that in the past, I have never heard of Prince Regent having a younger brother. Now that the world is in chaos, you suddenly appeared and even took the throne."
Lord Zhao's expression was extremely ugly. He stood up and said, "Looks like we won't be able to talk about the matter with General Zhou today. Since that's the case, I'll take my leave first!"
Just as Lord Zhao turned around to leave, Zhou Qu's voice came from behind, "Wait."
The person standing at the door immediately stopped Lord Zhao.
Seeing Zhou Qu's fierce gaze, Lord Zhao's face changed, "General Zhou, what do you want to do? Could it be that you want to kill me!? "
Zhou Qu smiled and said, "I don't need to kill you. For a fence-sitter like you, wouldn't it be a waste of effort to kill me? However, since Master Zhao has come from afar today, please leave something behind! "
Hearing that, Lord Zhao's body started to tremble. He didn't know what to say, but Zhou Qu had already stood up.
"General Zhou, General Zhou, you …"
Before he finished, Zhou Qu's hand was already on the ground.
His hair fell down just like that.
Lord Zhao could not help but cry out as he fell to the ground.
His legs went limp.
Zhou Qu held the hair in his hand and said, "See the guests out!"
A haircut was a great insult to him!
Lord Zhao's expression changed slightly before he rushed out.
When he was in front of King Lingsu, he immediately began to wail like a ghost, and said, "Your majesty, that Zhou Qu is simply looking down on everyone! He actually, actually treated this subject like this, you must definitely take responsibility for this subject's actions! "
Lord Zhao was like a young wife who had been wronged. However, it seemed that he was indeed wronged because after Zhou Qu cut off his hair, he was indeed very ugly.
Although King Lingsu was angry at Zhou Qu for doing this, he still felt upset when he saw Lord Zhao crying like this. After getting someone to send him off, he suddenly thought of something and asked to confirm that Grand Consort Lan had already rested before going to the prison by himself.
