THE QUEEN'S TRUE LOVE

CHAPTER 86

But even after what they did, Qi Sheng still kindly ordered General Yang to bury the dead well. Because even though they were assassins, but they were loyal to their master, Qi Sheng liked such people.

Qi Sheng directly confronted him the moment Jiu Wang came. But Jiu Wang did not seem to feel the slightest guilt and reminded Qi Sheng that as a person born into the royal family, everything was already determined.

Qi Sheng admitted that being born into a royal family, they could not be free. But that doesn't mean Jiu Wang can fight for what isn't meant for her.

"We're grandchildren of the same lineage. Would it be fate if I wasn't spoiled by it? We are both smart and talented and think about this country. Don't tell me just because I'm doomed, I can't be Emperor."

"The winner will be the king and the loser will have nothing."

After all the real killers were other people and General Yang also knew who the mastermind was, so it didn't matter if they wanted to say it or not. Bring Jiu Wang before him.

Jiu Wang did not care whether he would survive or not right now. But he did all this for Peng Peng. Not only because he wanted to get Peng Peng, but also because Peng Peng was unhappy.

Peng Peng is unhappy being the Empress and does not feel safe. He did this just for the sake of making Peng Peng happy.

Qi Sheng was obviously furious hearing that. "You should know that Peng Peng and you weren't meant to be together. He was destined to be my Preacher. If everything you do is for her, you're hurting her. She can be Empress without worrying about her safety."

"If you want to punish me, go ahead. Don't involve anyone else anymore."

General Yang wondered if Qi Sheng would not get rid of the Empress after learning of the Empress' involvement in this assassination attempt.

Indeed, Qi Sheng should have gotten rid of Peng Peng from a long time ago. But Qi Sheng could not bear to be that cruel to Peng Peng. Qi Sheng then ordered General Yang to send two letters to the Queen Mother and the Empress.

In the letters, Qi Sheng confessed that he had been poisoned by a murderer and asked Peng Peng to come to deliver the antidote and meet him one last time.

End flashback.

8 Days had Peng Peng and his entourage gone without rest. Peng insisted on continuing to walk, but his guards continued to convince Peng peng to rest for a while so that his horse could also rest, they could walk faster if they rest for a while.

Peng Peng finally relented and they were able to rest in the middle of the forest. Lu Li convinced her not to worry too much. Peng Peng had to be sure that Qi Sheng would definitely be protected by a God, he was a good person.

After saying that, Lu Li immediately fell asleep so tired. Both guards went to bed quickly. Peng Peng looked at the poison antidote dejectedly, before finally going to bed as well.

Right then and there, Yang Yan appeared out of nowhere. He was fanning his smoke to make them more sound and then nosy to prank his bodyguard Peng Peng by stuffing his nose with grass. Satisfied with judging him, Yang Yan then kidnapped Peng Peng.
