Chapter 454: The Imperial Concubine Is Pure and Elegant (Two Hundred and Four)

Cui Li felt that Ji Wei treated Ji Shilan from Kunning Palace as a rabbit, but in Ji Wei's own eyes, Ji Shilan was not a rabbit.

"Is there any news over there? Is Cui Li dead?"

Ji Wei asked while lying on a recliner made of rosewood, touching her belly.

A humble eunuch said, "Wu Meng suddenly lost contact. We don't know the details of his situation yet, but I'm afraid... he's in grave danger."

Ji Wei paused, her hand stroking her abdomen, a hint of displeasure. She demanded, "Wu Lan, you deserted the battlefield, leading to my sister's death. Can't you be more attentive now? Wu Meng couldn't rescue my sister, and he couldn't kill Cui Li either?" The young eunuch lowered his head, his hands clenched tightly in his sleeves, and whispered, "Third Princess, calm down. Wu Lan was discovered by Emperor Liang's men and faced a life-or-death crisis. He had no choice but to evacuate the palace. Now that my sister has been in trouble, Wu Lan will naturally do her best to help you manage the overall situation in Liang and avenge my sister."

Ji Wei didn't want Wu Lan to mention Ji Mingyue the most. Once Ji Mingyue was mentioned, it reminded her of the fact that Ji Mingyue wanted to kill her before his death.

The red splashing in her memory made her touch her face subconsciously. Fortunately, there was no warm blood and it had been washed clean long ago.

Revenge for Ji Mingyue?

Ji Mingyue hates her sister the most. Is Wu Lan going to kill Ji Wei for revenge to avenge Ji Mingyue's spirit in heaven?

"Don't mention her again! If you don't want to help me, go back to Ji Kingdom!"

Seeing Ji Wei's strong aversion to the emperor, Wu Lan hid the complexities in her eyes and said respectfully, "Princess, Wu Lan has said that those of us who remain in Liang Kingdom all want to do our utmost to help you become Liang Kingdom's most favored concubine, or even the new empress. General Wu Meng is the most loyal man. Since you are in the palace, you can only rely on him to kill Cui Li, who has left the palace, whether you trust him or not."

Ji Wei said disdainfully, "Depend on him? Who is he? He's just a dog by Ji Mingyue's side. Do I need to rely on him? He can't even protect himself. It would be a blessing if he doesn't betray me after being caught."

Wu Lan suppressed her anger and argued, "You misunderstood General Wu. He and I are both loyal to the Ji Kingdom and to you. Even if we die, you will not be implicated."

"Oh, now that Ji Mingyue is dead, you chose to obey my orders. If she were still alive, would you still point your spearhead at me?"

Wu Lan curled her lips and said that let's not talk about ***. Isn't the person who can't tolerate *** the most Ji Wei, her younger sister?

With Cui Li dead, Ji Wei seemed even more sensitive, becoming wary of Wu Lan. "Third Princess, Wu Lan, please calm down. Now is not the time for internal strife. You know better than I who is to blame for Cui Li's death. We should seek revenge on Emperor Liang! If Cui Li is dead, the Liang Emperor will be devastated. If we seize the opportunity to kill him, the Liang Kingdom will inevitably be in turmoil."

Ji Wei shook her sleeves, looked at her newly painted bright red nails, and said with a smile: "Seeking revenge on His Majesty? Why? Do you think that if he dies, the prince in my belly can become emperor? Or if he dies, I will help you to coordinate internal and external forces and let the soldiers of Ji State occupy Liang State? If Liang State is destroyed, how can I, the concubine Ji, have a good end? Do you think you can reward me with three white silks and let me and my children go down to accompany Ji Mingyue?"

Wu Lan, disguised as a young eunuch, knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, please calm down. Wu Lan would never dare to plot against you! Everything I do is for your own good!"

"For my own good? Then kill that fake phoenix in Kunning Palace!"
