Chapter 425 - I Know A Secret 2 (2/2)
She stretched her hand out wanting to touch him, but a nearby person pushed her away.
Zhao Zhe arrogantly looked at her said, ”This emperor has something to ask you.”
Kangyuan was muddled-headed and didn't immediately return to her senses. It took her a long time to realize that she was looking at Zhao Zhe's face. When that happened, her eyes were filled with overwhelming disappointment.
Even as death was imminent, that person wasn't willing to be with her, so how could he possibly be coming here to see here? She was so stupid.
”What question does Your Majesty have for this worthless servant?” Kangyuan scoffed.
Zhao Zhe pursed his lips and said in a low voice, ”Someone told this emperor that Marquis Moyu's heir, Ning Jinchen, is Nie Sangyu's biological son. Do you know about this matter?”
”Someone?” Kangyuan harrumphed. ”It's Wen Wan, right? Of the people that knew about this, we're the only two people that are still alive.”
Zhao Zhe's body stiffened. The meaning of her words meant that Wen Wan wasn't lying?
“Marquis Moyu has done such a good job protecting their child.” Kangyuan dreamily said, ”If I had been able to become pregnant with older cousin Li's child, it would have been great if he also protect me like that.”
Zhao Zhe kicked the railing on the side. It was such a loud sound that even Ji Man and Ning Yuxuan, who were further in the prison, could hear this sound. They stopped talking and looked into the blackness of the prison.
”Your Majesty, please calm down.” Wu Yong respectfully cupped his hands and said, ”Your Majesty, if you really want that woman, this subject has a way. Please keep calm.”
”What can you do?” It was difficult for Zhao Zhe to let go of his residual anger. “Ning Yuxuan had actually dared to lie to this emperor. He clearly hated Sangyu back then, but he stole the child back from this emperor's hands. If it wasn't because this emperor had been momentarily negligent because of everything that happened shortly afterwards, how could that vile sp.a.w.n still be alive?”
Wu Yong said in a low voice, ”Your Majesty, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. The better the marquis hid this matter, the more convenient it'll be for Your Majesty.”
”What do you mean?” Zhao Li looked back.
Wu Yong whispered something into the emperor's ear for a while. Zhao Zhe's furrowed brow slowly relaxed. His eyes even slightly brightened. ”That is a good idea.”
Kangyuan couldn't be bothered to try to eavesdrop on their conversation. After Zhao Li died, her mind had become muddled. Every day, she would see a mirage of Zhao Li's face, but it wasn't clear.
Perhaps, she would be able to see him once she went to the underworld.
”Oh, right. I still owe Nie Sangyu a secret.” Kangyuan giggled. ”Just treat this as thanking her for bringing me to see older cousin Li one last time.”
”What is it?” Zhao Zhe raised his eyebrows and partially turned his head to look at her.
”Tell her to be careful.” Kangyuan grinned sinisterly. ”Wen Wan hasn't lost her memory. She'll definitely give Nie Sangyu a hard time.”
