Married to His Royal Highness the Remnant King

Chapter 404 Life should not be cut off
"Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

Jiang Liuli shuddered. Although she looked calm on the outside, her heart was already surging with waves.

"If you are really of royal blood, I will grant you wealth and glory! But if I find out that you are deceiving the emperor and confusing the royal bloodline, I will make sure you die without a burial place!"

There was a stern look in the emperor's eyes, and he looked intimidating without being angry.

Jiang Liuli completely believed that the emperor was definitely not just talking.

Isn’t the blood on the emperor’s hands enough?

With just one word from him, your head could fall to the ground at any time.

"But how can the emperor determine whether a child born by a commoner girl is of royal blood?"

Jiang Liuli is not afraid of death, but she cannot die unjustly.

Could it be that the Emperor would still want to use such an unscientific method as blood test to identify relatives?
"I have my own way!"

Jiang Liuli opened her mouth, wanting to ask what the solution was. But when she saw the emperor's sharp eyes, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

It’s better not to say anything, but the more you say, the more mistakes you make!
When a scholar meets a soldier, he can't even explain himself!

The person in front of you is the emperor. How irrational would it be to reason with him?
What the emperor said is the truth!
The more I talk, the more guilty I feel.

"Sure! But I want to see Qiaohui, the palace maid who is with me!"

Jiang Liuli figured it out. Instead of trying to stop a chariot without knowing her own limitations, it would be better to fight for what she wants.

Walk to the end of the water, sit and watch the clouds rise!
Maybe, if Beichen Qi finds out that I’m missing, he will come looking for me.

By then, won't everything be solved?
The emperor was silent for a moment, waved his hand, and signaled the eunuch to bring the person up.

She is just a little palace maid, what kind of trouble can she cause?
"Qiaohui?"

When Jiang Liuli saw Qiaohui being carried up by two palace maids, her eyes suddenly turned red.

She had never expected that Qiaohui was injured so seriously, especially the shocking scar on her face.

"What's going on?"

Liuli was extremely upset. She knew clearly that she had to be extra careful in this deep palace where people eat each other, but how could she still fall into the trap of the bad guys and almost die in the fire.

"There's a fire in the cold palace! Fortunately, we're not going to die!"

Qiaohui downplayed the incident and did not elaborate on how thrilling the process of escaping from the fire was.

But even if she didn't come out, Jiang Liuli could imagine it!
It was difficult for one person to escape from the fire, let alone a thin girl like Qiaohui who had to carry herself with a big belly.

"Anywhere else hurt?"

Liuli's eyes were red and she felt mixed emotions.

If Qiaohui hadn't risked her life to save her, she and the baby in her belly would probably have gone to hell by now!

"It's just a minor skin injury, nothing serious! The imperial physician has already checked it out!"

Seeing that Liuli was fine, Qiaohui was already satisfied.

As for the injuries on my body, I will take care of them for a few days and they will eventually heal!
"Tell me quickly, where else are you injured? If you don't tell me, I'll have to check it myself!"

Seeing that the stubborn Liuli was about to take action, Qiaohui timidly opened her hands.

The originally tender and fair palm was now covered in blood and flesh, without a single intact piece of skin!
"How could this be?"

Liuli asked with a sob, enduring the pain in her heart.

"A beam is blocking the exit. If we don't move it, we won't be able to escape! It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore!"

In order to make Liuli feel at ease, Qiaohui forced a smile.

She raised her hand and used the back of her hand to wipe the hot tears from the corners of Liuli's eyes.

"Silly girl!"

Liuli hugged Qiaohui tightly, unable to utter a word.

East Palace
"Your Highness, it's time to eat!" Li Xiang'er carefully brought the stewed chicken soup.

Ever since the fire broke out in the cold palace, Beichen Qi has been sitting there motionless for several hours.

"No matter how poor your appetite is, you still have to drink some soup!"

Li Xiang'er scooped a spoonful of soup and handed it to Beichen Qi's mouth, but he knocked it away.

The spoon fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

"roll!"

Beichen Qi stared at the ground with empty eyes. At this moment, he didn't want to see anyone and didn't want to eat anything!
He thought God was blessing him and bringing Liuli back to life, but he didn't expect that it was another torture for him.

If he had not imprisoned Liuli in the cold palace, if he had stayed with Liuli all the time, would the fire have not happened and Liuli would not have been burned to ashes?

"Your Highness!"

Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who looked like a walking corpse, Li Xiang'er felt mixed emotions.

She was jealous that Liuli had snatched away all of Beichen Qi's attention and love.

But at this moment, she hoped so much that Jiang Liuli would be safe and sound.

Only in this way can she see a vibrant Beichen Qi.

"Concubine, please retire!"

Li Xiang'er was not in a hurry to return to her own palace, but came to Concubine Li.

Now, the only option is to take risky measures.

"See the Crown Princess!"

Concubine Li bowed perfunctorily and did not show much respect to Li Xiang'er.

The fact that Li Xiang'er was in love with Beichen Qi had long been known to everyone in the capital.

In the eyes of these noble ladies, what they despise the most is the behavior of brothel girls!

Shouldn't a woman's marriage be decided by her parents and the matchmaker?
"No gift!"

How could Li Xiang'er not see the disdain in Concubine Li's eyes?

But now is not the time to worry about these little things.

"There's been a fire in the cold palace, Miss Jiang has passed away! Did you know?"

How could Concubine Li not know about such a big thing happening in the palace?
She knows more than Li Xianger.

Just as my mother said, there will never be two similar faces in this world.

No one is competing for her favor anymore?

As for the Crown Princess in front of her, Li Xiang'er, Concubine Li didn't take her seriously at all.

As long as she holds the heart of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is still uncertain who will be the Crown Princess in the near future!
"Really? No way?"

Even though she knew everything clearly in her heart, Concubine Li still pretended to be surprised.

"There's no need for me to lie to you! It's been burned beyond recognition!"

Thinking of the scene she saw, Li Xianger couldn't help but frown slightly.

"It is precisely because of this that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is heartbroken! So many hours have passed and he has not eaten a single grain of rice! This time, I came here in the hope that you would go over and persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"What kind of joke is that, Crown Princess? Even Crown Princess can't persuade him, let alone me! I just entered the palace, my influence is not strong, how can I possibly persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Concubine Li pretended to retreat in order to advance.

"How will you know if it doesn't work if you don't try?"

Looking at Concubine Li's face that was somewhat similar to Jiang Liuli, even Li Xiang'er was confused. It felt as if she saw Jiang Liuli right in front of her.

If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw this, perhaps he wouldn't be so sad!
