When Concubine Liang learned that Hua Jieyu had given birth prematurely, she was both happy and annoyed.

Fortunately, the child in Hua Jieyu's womb is still there, so she doesn't need to be charged with murdering the emperor's heir.

Naturally, she was also annoyed by this, why is the child in Hua Jieyu's belly still there? Why not just let her have a miscarriage? !

Concubine Liang said while wiping her tears.

"I heard that Princess Zhao was missing, so I took this matter to Hua Jieyu and said a few words in front of Hua Jieyu. Your Majesty should know that the scar on this concubine's head was caused by Princess Zhao. It is impossible for this concubine to be in the heart." There are no lumps at all, but this concubine is just annoyed at Hua Jieyu, I never thought about what I would really do to her."

Seeing her gossip about him, the emperor made it clear that he refused to tell the truth.

He said softly: "I will ask you one last time, do you know where Princess Zhao is? If you still refuse to tell the truth, I have no choice but to hand you over to King Zhao. You should know what kind of person King Zhao is. It’s better to think clearly before answering.”

Concubine Liang couldn't cry anymore.

She looked at the emperor in disbelief, but she didn't expect this man to hand her over to King Zhao.

King Zhao is a lunatic!

If she really fell into his hands, she would have to shed her skin even if she was not dead.

Concubine Liang hurriedly begged.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, I really don't know anything about my body, please don't give me my body to King Zhao."

The emperor didn't want to hear her full of lies anymore, so he gave a cold order.

"Send an order to King Zhao to come into the palace immediately, saying that there is someone here who knows where Princess Zhao is."

Zuo Ji took the order to leave.

Concubine Liang was completely panicked now.

She walked all the way to the emperor on her knees, grabbed the hem of his clothes and begged.

"What I said is the truth. I don't even know where Princess Zhao is. Even if King Zhao comes, I still don't know. Please don't hand me over. After all, I am your concubine. Ah, do you really have the heart to see my concubine being bullied by other men?"

The emperor looked down at her with a very calm expression.

"You are just an item from Xiliang. In my eyes, you are no different from those tributes."

Concubine Liang's body froze, and her expression became extremely embarrassing.

Emperor: "If you can keep yourself safe, I don't mind letting you live your life in peace, but you can live a good life, but if you insist on causing trouble, then you have to be prepared to bear the consequences of trouble."

After being dazed for a while, Concubine Liang actually laughed, her smile was extremely bleak.

"What does it mean to live a good life? It turns out that in the eyes of His Majesty, the concubine's tormented life, which is better than death, is still good?"

It's not that the emperor didn't know how Concubine Liang was doing in the palace.

It's true that she's not doing very well, but it's definitely not too bad either.

At least in terms of food and clothing, there has never been a shortage of her.

As long as she can relax, don't care about the gazes of the people around her, and don't compare herself with other concubines, she can live a pretty good life in the harem.

Unfortunately……

People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants.

The emperor said something lightly.

"It's just that you haven't seen anyone who is truly worse than death."

After speaking, he didn't want to look at her any more, waved her hand away, and strode out.

No matter how much Concubine Liang cried and begged behind her, he never looked back.

Seeing this, Zuo Ji clicked his tongue silently. Concubine Liang's background and status were much higher than that of Hua Jieyu, but the emperor's attitude towards Hua Jieyu was much better than Concubine Liang's.

Concubine Liang, this is really...

A good hand of cards was smashed by her.

Li Ji was still looking for people all over the world. Hearing that the emperor had a clue to find Hua Manman, he got on his horse without saying a word, and went straight to the palace.

He rushed all the way to Hanzhang Hall like lightning, and asked as soon as he entered the door.

"Where is the person?"

Zuo Ji got the emperor's order and immediately led King Zhao to Zuo Pei Hall.

Li Ji met Concubine Liang in the left side hall.

Zuo Ji said in a low voice, "She is the one the sage said."

The moment Concubine Liang saw King Zhao, her pupils trembled violently, as if she had seen a ghost during the day, and her expression became extremely frightened.

She kept shrinking back: "Don't come here."

Li Ji walked towards her expressionlessly.

The pace was neither fast nor slow, as if stepping on Concubine Liang's heart, causing her heart to beat violently.

In the past, she had only heard about King Zhao's fierce reputation, but she had never seen the true face of King Zhao with her own eyes until this moment.

It was completely different from the laziness and wantonness she had seen before.

The real him was fierce and cruel, like a murderer who had just been released from a cage, with a vicious aura that could almost tear people apart.

Concubine Liang was terrified.

"I really don't know anything!"

Li Ji grabbed her neck with one hand and lifted her up.

Concubine Liang was forced to leave her feet off the ground.

The neck was tightly stuck, unable to breathe.

She was so uncomfortable that she struggled desperately to resist.

It didn't work though.

Her little strength is like a mayfly shaking a tree in front of King Zhao.

No matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't shake him at all.

Accompanied by the lack of oxygen in her brain, Concubine Liang's mind began to become chaotic, physiological tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and her face turned from white to blue.

She could feel that death was approaching her.

No, she doesn't want to die.

She is the pearl of the desert, the most beautiful woman in Xiliang.

She didn't want to die silently in a foreign country in such a way that no one knew about.

Concubine Liang opened her mouth and made a hoarse voice with great effort.

"I say……"

After a while, until she was about to pass out, Li Ji let go of her fingers.

Concubine Liang fell to the ground in embarrassment.

She covered her throat and gasped for breath.

A large amount of fresh air rushed into her lungs, choking her to cough.

Li Ji looked at her coldly.

"You only have one last chance."

Concubine Liang shivered.

She knew that King Zhao was warning her that if she refused to tell the truth, he would really kill her.

This man always walks the talk.

Concubine Liang has never been more afraid of him than now.

She spoke with difficulty.

"The person who kidnapped Princess Zhao was Xiao Hong."

Li Ji knew that Xiao Hong was a major general of the Xiliang Kingdom, and they had fought against each other on the battlefield.

"Isn't he staying in Xiliang? Why did he come to Dazhou?"

Concubine Liang breathed out for a while before speaking.

"Since the defeat in Xiliang, Xiao Hong has been very unwilling, he wants to start a new war with Da Zhou.

However, the people of Xiliang Kingdom are in dire straits due to the continuous war for several years.

Whether it's my uncle or the court ministers, they don't want to fight anymore.

So Xiao Hong came to Xiliang personally, he wanted to find an opportunity to start the war again.

He sent someone to contact me secretly, hoping that I could help him.

He is my cousin, and we have had a good relationship since we were young. He thinks I should agree to help. "

Li Ji squinted his eyes and keenly grasped the key points.

"You are in the harem, how did Xiao Hong contact you? Is there someone secretly helping you pass the news?"
