Chapter 175 (1/2)
After these experiences, Li Hongyuan finally agreed to revolt. The soldiers rescued him and forced him to the palace.
Li Hongle committed suicide on the Dragon chair. Before he died, he asked Li Hongyuan to let Lin wanting go.
”Since we were young, our brothers all know that she likes you. Even the father and the emperor say that she will be your princess in the future. Hongyuan, it is you who have failed her. You know what she used to be. It's because of you that she's become like this
”I have loved her for so many years and spoiled her for so many years, but I still have no better than you.” Li Hongle was helpless.

”It's all because of me. He's so nice to me. I'm the one who made him so bad.” Lin wanting cried. She moved to the wall.
”No! I've promised to let you go, and I'm sure you'll live a safe life. ” Li Hongyuan kept his mouth open.
”Cousin...” Lin wanting suddenly called him, her eyes watery, and said, ”I haven't called your cousin for a long time. Do you remember what you promised me before you went out to the war? When the peach blossoms, you will come back. The lady promised me to discuss a marriage for us, but when you come back, you say you want to marry shangguanxuan... ”
