After getting along with King Zhao for such a long time, Hua Manman can feel that there are many secrets hidden in King Zhao's heart.
From what she knew about him, he had a strong distrust attitude towards everything around him, and he would not be willing to share his secrets with others.
When she asked that question just now, it was purely out of curiosity and quick talking.
She never thought of learning the truth from King Zhao.
However, King Zhao seriously assured her that he would tell her all his secrets in the future.
This made Hua Manman feel a strange feeling in his heart.
She couldn't tell what it was like.
Facing Shang Zhaowang's long and narrow eyes that were as black as ink, Hua Manman's brain seemed to stop spinning.
She nodded foolishly.
"Oh well."
Li Ji got the response he wanted, and finally a smile appeared on his face again.
In the depths of the pitch-black eyes, there was some imperceptible brilliance.
Jinxiu pushed the door open and walked in, followed by a little maid.
They quickly waited for King Zhao and Hua Ruren to wash and change their clothes.
After breakfast, Hua Manman planned to go back to the house and sleep in the cage. Today is a rare day off, so she decided to do nothing and just sleep in the dark!
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy~
When Li Ji learned about her holiday plan, she only gave a four-word evaluation.
"As expected of you."
Hua Manman walked briskly back to the bedroom.
She took off her coat and got into bed, closed her eyes, and let out a contented sigh.
There is no place in the world more comfortable than a quilt.
Siyun silently exits the bedroom.
The door was quietly closed.
When Hua Manman was falling asleep, she suddenly felt a big hand covering her mouth and nose!
She woke up with a start.
When he opened his eyes, he met a strange man's face.
The man was wearing ordinary guard clothes, and his eyebrows and eyes looked ordinary. He belonged to the type that could not be found when thrown in the crowd.
Seeing that Hua Manman had woken up, he immediately increased his strength and covered her mouth and nose tightly to prevent her from making a sound.
Hua Manman kicked him in the stomach.
This kick was very hard.
The man gasped in pain, but did not let go.
The fierce light in his eyes was even brighter, and the other hand drew a dagger from his arms.
He pressed the dagger to Hua Manman's neck, and threatened in a low voice.
"If you move again, I will kill you."
Hua Manman immediately stopped struggling and froze.
She stared at the man with wide eyes without blinking.
Who is this guy
How did he get in
What does he want to do
One question after another came to mind.
However, she was puzzled.
The man blocked her mouth with a veil, then took out the rope he had prepared long ago, and tied her up firmly with the quilt.
After doing this, the man relaxed a little.
He got up and walked to the window, carefully opened the window a crack, and peeped out quietly.
It was still raining outside, and the guards in charge of patrol passed by from time to time, and there was a little maid guarding the door of the bedroom.
Everything is normal.
No one noticed that there was a man of unknown origin in Hua Ruren's room.
The man sat down beside the bed, holding a dagger in his hand, and kept his eyes on the direction of the door.
He seemed to be waiting for someone.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one could come in.
The man finally couldn't hold back anymore.
He put the dagger on Hua Manman's neck, with the other hand he tore off the veil from her mouth, and asked in a low voice.
"When will King Zhao come to see you?"
Hua Manman suddenly realized that the person he was waiting for was King Zhao.
She replied truthfully: "I don't know either."
The man obviously didn't believe it: "How could you not know? You are King Zhao's favorite woman."
Hua Manman retorted: "Who spread this rumor
It's too unreliable, how can a man like King Zhao fall in love with an ordinary woman like me? "
The man sneered: "If he doesn't pamper you, why would he bring you to Yuqing Mountain to escape the summer heat?"
Hua Manman: "That's because King Zhao's reputation is too cruel.
When the women in the backyard of the palace saw him, their legs became weak and their eyes turned black. They wished they could faint on the spot.
With him like this, who would dare to come to Yuqing Mountain with him to escape the summer heat
I was the only one who was more courageous and followed along. "
The man scoffed at her words.
"You think I'll believe your nonsense
You'd better put away your petty thoughts and tell me honestly, when will King Zhao come over
As long as you cooperate, I can make you suffer less. "
Hua Manman: "I really don't know when King Zhao will come over, I can swear, if I lie, I will be struck by lightning."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a rumbling thunder outside.
At the same time, there was a flash of lightning.
Hua Manman: "..."
She smiled awkwardly and politely at the man's sinister eyes.
"Would you believe me if I said it was just a coincidence?"
The man smiled on the surface: "What do you think?"
Hua Manman: "I think you can still believe it. After all, there is still a minimum level of trust between people."
The man found that this woman's mouth is really good, as long as she is given a chance to open her mouth, she can talk endlessly.
He didn't want to waste any more time with her, so he picked up the veil and stuffed it into her mouth again.
The house became quiet again.
The sound of the rain outside was clearly visible and continuous.
Time passed little by little.
It was already noon, but no one came in.
The man became more and more anxious.
He tore off the veil from Huamanman's mouth again, and asked impatiently.
"Don't you have to eat at noon? Why is no one calling you to eat?"
Hua Manman replied truthfully: "Because I told them that I will sleep all day, and as long as I don't wake up, no one is allowed to call me."
The man was speechless: "Are you a pig? You actually have to sleep all day."
Hua Manman protested: "You can look down on me, but you can't look down on pigs!"
man:"… "
are you crazy!
The man's name is Liu Shizhong.
He was originally a member of the Flying Dragon Rider, but because he helped kill Jin Zhi and silence him, he exposed his identity as an internal thief, and now he has been suspected by General Wang.
He knew that he was doomed, so he decided to fight one last time.
As long as he can take the life of King Zhao, his wife and children will get a lot of money. With that money, his wife and children can go far away and start a new life.
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and at the same time, there were some hurried footsteps.
Liu Shizhong's hearing is excellent.
He could hear footsteps getting closer.
This means that a large group of people is approaching here.
Liu Shizhong walked to the window, peeped out through the gap, and found that General Wang was leading a group of people rushing here.
They are searching room by room.
King Zhao was pushed towards this side, and many personal guards followed behind him.
Liu Shizhong's heart immediately sank to the bottom.
He knew that it was impossible for him alone to take the head of King Zhao from under the eyes of so many masters.
He walked back and forth anxiously for two steps, and finally fixed his gaze on Hua Manman.
Liu Shizhong originally wanted to use Hua Manman as a bait to sneak attack King Zhao when he was not paying attention.
But in this situation, it is impossible for a sneak attack to succeed.
Then Hua Manman's bait would be useless.
