Tang Shaogong's eyes slightly closed.
"What about Pei Jue, Prime Minister, you even disregard Pei Jue now?"
Li Zongxun gave a cold smile as if he saw through the emotions hidden in his eyes, his words colder than the last.
"At this point, do you think I would still fall for your lies?"
He raised his hand, pointing at Li Sangruo, his words reverting Tang Shaogong's thoughts back to their original form.
"If Pei Jue truly cared about her, how could he have waited until today?!"
He shook his head, his gaze deeply falling on Tang Shaogong's face, "It's just too bad that I trusted you too much and allowed myself to be deceived by you. Damn thing, there won't be a next time."
Upon hearing this, Li Sangruo's belief that Li Zongxun intended to declare himself Emperor solidified, and after a brief moment of panic upon seeing the dense ranks of the Imperial Guards, she eerily calmed down.
