Chapter 31

Liu Bao took the lantern and walked forward.1

Xiao Li looked at the heavy guards outside the hall and said indifferently," Let these guards retreat. Just leave two."

"In the name of the Empress tomorrow night, send someone to announce Su Zhang to the palace. Ninth Brother has also instructed someone to send a message to ask him to take this opportunity to go to the study room of the General's Mansion to search for military talismans."

Xiao Li handed over a secret letter that read the secret room in the study.

Liu Bao happily said," That's great. In this way, the Emperor will win without a fight. Great Xia will also avoid a fierce battle!"

Xiao Li looked at the sky. It was the darkest day before dawn, with a deep expression.

"We can't be careless until the last minute."

Soon, it was about to dawn.

Xiao Li had no intention of falling asleep, but he stopped and stood outside Yuxiu Palace.

That night, Su Jiangxue didn't sleep well.

The Su Yeying had been designed by her and half of her revenge had been taken. However, in her dream, she recalling how she had been gnawed by insects and ants in the dark prison and nailed into her flesh under the scorching sun.

"I didn't..." Su Jiangxue was trapped in the nightmare and kept talking.

Xiao Li stood by the bed, watching the Su Jiangxue huddled together in fear and sorrow. The pent-up anger in his heart suddenly faded.

He lifted the quilt and Su Jiangxue woke up from the commotion. When he opened his eyes and saw that it was him, he subconsciously shrank back.

The Xiao Li and the eyes in the darkness met facing each other. At this moment, the blood almost flowed against the current and rushed straight up to his head!

Through his eyes, he seemed to see another person.

That time, he had tortured her in front of others. Later on, he couldn't help but apply medicine to her late at night. When she woke up, he had also looked at him like that!

This kind of gaze made his heart ache!

Xiao Li reached out and gently covered Su Jiangxue eyes.

He lay down beside her and gently hugged her.

His recent exhaustion made him unable to tell why he felt distressed for her at this moment.

Unknowingly, he hugged her and fell asleep peacefully.

When Su Jiangxue woke up the next day, there was no sign of anyone coming.

She hesitated," Did the emperor come last night?"

Ying Ge thought about it carefully. She didn't hear anything and shook her head.

It was indeed a dream.

Su Jiangxue laughed self-deprecatingly. The Xiao Li that was extremely gentle towards her had long since changed. How could she still be so naive and have such a fantasy...

Throwing away those thoughts that bothered her, Su Jiangxue said indifferently," How is the Empress?"

"After hearing about last night's incident, the emperor was furious. He killed the two guards on the spot and banned the Empress from the Chang Kun Palace.However..." Ying Ge looked at Su Jiangxue expression and said hesitantly," However, after the Emperor went to see the Empress, he seemed to be soft-hearted again. The order was as usual. The Empress proposed to see General Su, and the Emperor would allow it."

No one knew better than Su Jiangxue how deeply Xiao Li loved Su Yeying.

She wouldn't be surprised if Xiao Li made any concessions for this woman.

Su Jiangxue red lips parted slightly as she chewed the name' Su Zhang' in her lips and teeth. She was worried that she would not have the chance to personally take revenge. Since he had taken the initiative to come knocking on his door, it was time for him to Su Zhang a while.
