Li Qiong really didn't expect Li Ji to kneel so fast.
And looking at Li Ji's appearance, he didn't dare to feel humiliated and indignant because of this kneeling, as if this kneeling was nothing to him at all.
This made Li Qiong feel aggrieved by punching the cotton, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Li Ji urged: "That's fine, let me see Manman."
Li Qiong's expression was ugly.
"You're playing tricks on me."
Li Ji felt baffled: "You asked me to kneel, and I kowtowed, and you asked me to kowtow, and I kowtowed too. How could I perfunctory you?"
Li Qiong was speechless.
He deliberately made Li Ji kneel and kowtow in full view, in order to humiliate Li Ji severely, crush Li Ji's dignity under his feet, and prove to the world that the legendary invincible king regent also But that's all.
But now, how could Li Ji look a little humiliated? !
Li Qiong: Very angry!
He said with a sullen face: "I promised to let her live, but I didn't promise to let you see her."
The other party was obviously playing tricks on him, Li Ji asked without any embarrassment.
"How can you let me see Manman?"
Li Qiong spit out four words slowly.
"I want you to die."
Every word speaks volumes.
Everyone present was staring at Li Ji, wanting to see if he would give up his precious life for a woman.
Li Ji smiled.
Laughter is deep and penetrating.
Li Qiong frowned: "What's so funny?"
Li Ji stood up and responded casually.
"I laugh at you for being so naive. Do you think that as long as I die, this rebellion will end easily?"
Li Qiong didn't answer, but just stared at the other party unkindly.
In his opinion it is.
The reason why the rebels were able to attack Tianjing in a very short period of time was because of Li Ji's command.
As long as Li Ji dies, the rebel army will be defeated!
Li Ji patted the hem of his clothes casually, and wiped off the dust on it.
He was clearly surrounded by the enemy army, but he behaved very calmly as if he was in his own home.
As if he couldn't see the enemies staring at him around him, he said slowly.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that even if I die, the 500,000 Xuanjia troops outside the city will not retreat. I believe that under the command of Lord Zhen Guo, they can easily break through Tianjing City."
Li Qiong's complexion suddenly changed dramatically.
"Hasn't Duke Zhen been dead for many years?"
Li Ji smiled and said: "Are you talking about the battle in Guifengbao? The Duke of Zhen said that he lost very badly in that battle, but he did not die in the battle. Instead, he lived incognito among the people for a long time. Time, the reason why I was able to reach Tianjing City so quickly is due to Duke Zhen Guo's contribution."
After listening to him, Li Qiong's expression became extremely ugly.
When Li Qiong was born, Zhen Guogong had been dead for many years. In Li Qiong's cognition, Zhen Guogong was a code name that lived in other people's memories.
He never expected that a person who had been dead for many years would come back to life!
Li Ji: "I've already told Zhen Guo Bus that once I die, they will immediately destroy the city in the future and support Li Xun as his successor. So, are you sure you want me to die now?"
Li Qiong choked hard.
Li Ji: "If I were you, I would definitely ask God to worship Buddha to let me live, because only if I am still alive, Xuanjiawei will have scruples, and will not break into the city now, and I can win some for you. A chance to live on, what do you think?"
Li Qiong stood stiffly in place, like a human sculpture, before speaking for a long time.
"This is all planned by you, right?"
He originally thought that as long as he held Hua Manman's life, he could use this to hold Li Ji.
Unexpectedly, he was defeated by Li Ji.
No wonder Li Ji dared to enter the palace alone.
It turned out that he had already thought of a countermeasure!
With one hand behind his back, Li Ji said earnestly, like an elder educating a child.
"I grew up watching you, I know exactly what kind of character you are.
You are so well protected by Concubine Zhen, you seem to be smart, but you are actually very naive.
You regard me as the breakthrough point of this war, thinking that as long as I die, you can easily win.
In fact, your idea is not wrong.
But you missed the best time.
If you can use this trick on me when I just raised my troops, maybe this will get you what you want.
After all, I was just getting started at that time, and everyone didn't know what to do. It was up to me to personally lead the troops to charge and kill, so as to drive morale and unite people's hearts.
Once I die, the soldiers' hearts will immediately disperse.
But now the great cause is about to be accomplished, and it is only one step away from the final success.
Even if I die, they will not give up this easy success.
The chess pieces have been placed where they should be placed, the overall situation has been settled, and my existence is no longer so important. "
At this moment, Li Qiong had the illusion of returning to two years ago.
At that time, he was still the crown prince, and every time he went to court, he had to follow the regent to the imperial study to review the memorials.
From time to time, the regent would pick a few difficult questions from the memorial to quiz him.
If he didn't answer satisfactorily, the regent would start educating him in front of others as he is doing now, without caring about his face as a prince at all.
As it is now.
Li Ji criticized him to be useless with a lofty attitude.
Li Qiong hated the feeling of being dictated to.
he said harshly.
"Do you think you know everything? No, you don't know anything.
I don't need to kill you, but I can kill Hua Manman. "
Li Ji looked at him coldly, with a cold tone.
"If Man Man dies, I will capture Concubine Zhen and cut her alive in front of you."
Li Qiong said angrily: "How dare you?!"
Li Ji smiled arrogantly: "I even dare to rebel, what else dare not?"
Li Qiong was so angry that she wished she could kill this traitor and traitor right now.
He said through gritted teeth.
"Come here! Go and chop off one of Hua Manman's fingers, and send it over to the regent to appreciate it. I want to see, when you see your beloved's finger with your own eyes, can you still look like you are now?" So invincible?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Ji's suddenly cold face as he wished, and he felt extremely happy in his heart.
Zuo Ji was about to arrange for someone to do something, but Hua Dingzong grabbed his arm.
Hua Dingzong asked stutteringly.
"Is Manman really not dead?"
Zuo Jike said politely: "Your maidservant is still in a hurry to do something, can we talk about it later?"
After speaking, he pushed Hua Dingzong's hand away and left quickly.
Hua Dingzong's heart was in a mess, and his mind was full of endless things.
Although he has a lot of dissatisfaction with Manman, he often quarreled with her before, and even used family law against her.
But no matter what, Manman is his biological daughter.
No father can ignore the life and death of his daughter.
