ould say such things, he knew that the so-called friendship between them no longer existed.He chuckled bitterly in his heart and bowed to Lan Chu Xiao, "My subordinate is a loyal confidant of the King...Thinking of the flowers, a hint of guilt appeared in Xiaohong's eyes.
Ninger continued pressing, "So your young mistress is ungrateful, collaborating with the Third Prince of Xuan Country to have you intentionally lead our princess here, intending for Zhao Li to attack her"
