Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 672 - 671: Giving Her an Opportunity to Redeem Herse
With a slap, a palm t Qing i’s face.
Qing i’s face imdiately bore five distinct finger marks.
"You, how dare you!"
Chu Qianli pointed at her, her fingertips trembling slightly, "Do you think that, for your deeds outside, I would not know?"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life!" This ti, Qing i truly realized her mistake.
Being part of the Jianghu, she indeed did not previously understand the connections and communication channels of the people at the Imperial Court.
But now, she sowhat understood.
There were more people the Empress could rely on than just her and Hongchou.
She had only thought that since the Empress was new to Beiming and the ruler of Longteng Country, she would not yet have many dependable people, which is why she dared to deceive and hide the truth.
"Your Majesty, I truly realize my mistake. I was simply greedy for a mont, I will never dare again, please grant your rcy!"
"Your Majesty." Hongchou stepped forward and also said, "Qing i did indeed succumb to greed for a mont and erred, but please, Your Majesty, considering this is her first offense, forgive her this one ti."
"This ti, let Qing i personally lead a team to assassinate; Qing i excels at using poison, able to kill without trace. Please, Your Majesty, allow her to redeem herself through service!"
Chu Qianli looked at Hongchou.
Qing i was not as bright as Hongchou and naturally could not discern the deepest aning of Hongchou’s words.
But, Chu Qianli could.
So, Qing i excels at using poison and can kill without leaving a trace, huh?
Is this a warning to her?
Chu Qianli gave a forced smile, "Very well, I shall give her one chance, this ti, she must not fail!"
Qing i accepted the order and quickly retreated.
Only Chu Qianli and Hongchou remained in the room, and Chu Qianli sneered, "Are you threatening ?"
"I dare not." Hongchou was at her wit’s end, now that she knew Chu Qianli’s secret, she was, in fact, also walking on a knife’s edge.
Having been companions with Qing i for so many years, she deeply cared for her and could not allow Qing i to co to harm.
Now, she had no choice but to continue treading on that knife edge, and keep dealing with Chu Qianli.
After all, it was all for the sake of their respective interests.
"My sister and I only seek fortune and glory, which is sothing Your Majesty knows. If Your Majesty is good to us, we will remain loyally devoted. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, no one would have issues with wealth."
Upon hearing this, Chu Qianli’s wrath subsided slightly.
She then picked up a cup, intending to drink so tea,
But the thought of Hongchou’s sentence: Qing i excels at using poison and can kill without leaving a trace,
made her lose the impulse to drink it.
However, she was in need of people, and for the mont, Qing i and Hongchou still had considerable utility to her.
It was rely a pursuit of their own interests.
"Forget it, this is not such a serious matter, I might as well not hold it against her, but..."
Chu Qianli looked at Hongchou, her gaze darkening, "You should know that my patience is limited, do not push !"
"I wouldn’t dare!" Hongchou quickly lowered her head, earnestly responding, "I guarantee, this is Qing i’s last mistake!"
Chu Qianli said nothing more, and Hongchou swiftly changed the subject, "Your Majesty, considering this, the dicine Man Army may not actually belong to Prince He."
Chu Qianli still remained silent.
Hongchou added, "If not trained by Prince He, then on this Imperial Court, only two people are left."
"You an, Prince Yu and Prince Nan?"
"Exactly."
Though not of the Imperial Court, Hongchou, having learned of the matter, imdiately investigated stealthily and quickly uncovered the entirety of the situation.
This was precisely why, even though she knew Chu Qianli’s secret, Chu Qianli could not bear to dispose of her imdiately.
Hongchou continued, "Your Majesty, perhaps we should start with Prince Nan, who seems the least likely?"
