The most romantic little emperor

Qin Hao felt very sympathetic towards her and didn't want to see such a beautiful woman humiliate herself.

He thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "It's impossible to be a Noble Consort. How about I make you a Concubine? I'll give you status and honor. Is that okay?"

Li Shishi's expression softened slightly, but she still refused decisively: "No, at least make me a concubine?"

"Others have been given titles of Imperial Concubine or Imperial Concubine, and I'm no worse than them. Why am I only given the title of a mere Imperial Concubine?"

Qin Hao said angrily, "Li Shishi, you are the first woman who dares to negotiate with me."

"I admit that you are a woman with a strong heart, but you never accept any threats."

"No matter what your purpose is, I know that you made this request to take revenge on me."

"So, it's a great blessing for me to keep you by my side. If you dare to push your luck again, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

Seeing that Qin Hao had made up his mind, Li Shishi thought to herself: Unless I reveal my identity on my own initiative, it would be a blessing from heaven for Qin Hao to make her a concubine given her status as a courtesan.

Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she finally lowered her brows and felt satisfied.

"Now, can you tell me where Concubine Chun is?" Qin Hao asked tentatively.

He always felt a little uneasy before meeting Guo Xuanxuan.

Li Shishi's eyes softened as she said self-deprecatingly, "It seems that in someone's mind, a prostitute like me can never be compared to these girls from decent families."

"Indeed, even though I'm a prostitute who only sells my art and not my body, in the eyes of you bigwigs, I'm just a plaything."

"That's fine. Instead of being toyed with by others, it's better for you, the emperor, to be my good friend. I should be content."

As she spoke, she slowly stood up and chuckled, "Come on, Your Majesty, I will take you to see your beloved."

Seeing that Li Shishi was acting weird, Qin Hao ignored her. The most important thing right now was to find Guo Xuanxuan.

The two got into the carriage.

Qin Hao asked tentatively, "You are now considered my woman. How much do you know about Prince Ning? Or, in other words, how much evidence do you have of his crimes?"

After all, with absolute evidence in hand, overthrowing Prince Ning is just around the corner.

Li Shishi shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I am only one of Prince Ning's spies in the capital. He is the only one who gives me orders to report any news I gather in the capital back to Jinzhou."

"So, I know very little about him. However, there are many officials in the capital, and I do know some of them. I will write a list for you later."

Qin Hao looked at her, sizing up her expression, trying to find any signs of lying.

But Li Shishi's bright eyes were like a calm lake, without any ripples.

Could it be that she really had no evidence of Prince Ning's rebellion?

Or is she lying?

"Why, Your Majesty, don't you believe me?" Li Shishi asked when she saw that he remained silent.

Qin Hao nodded and said in a bad tone: "You'd better not play tricks on me, otherwise I will let you go see your eldest sister."

"By the way, what is the identity of your eldest sister?"

Li Shishi looked Qin Hao in the eye without hesitation and said slowly, "My eldest sister's original name was Feng Xiaoqing. She was the third child in the family and her nickname was Feng Sanniang."

"She was originally the daughter of a wealthy family, but her family was unfortunately harmed by the local government. From then on, her family fell into poverty and she was sold into a brothel."

"During those years in the brothel, in addition to learning poetry and songs, she also secretly learned martial arts in order to avenge her family's deaths."

"Later, by chance, she caught the eye of Prince Ning and was favored by him. Unexpectedly, my eldest sister became pregnant with Prince Ning's child."

"After the child was born, Prince Ning didn't give my eldest sister any status. Instead, he sent someone to take the child away and threatened her with the child's life, forcing her to use her beauty to serve those high-ranking officials and important figures in the underworld for his own use."

"At that time, the eldest sister was not only young and beautiful, but also talented in both civil and military affairs. All the men who met her, whether they were high-ranking officials or bigwigs in the underworld, fell at her feet and became her servants."

"From then on, my eldest sister completely became a tool for Prince Ning. Not only did she gather intelligence and buy people's hearts for him, she also forced women of good character into prostitution. She opened numerous brothels in various prefectures and made those people become his eyes and ears."

"Even for her child, she secretly committed many murders and robberies for Prince Ning."

"Anyone with a bit of experience in the martial arts world has undoubtedly heard of the name 'Feng Sanniang'. She is my eldest sister."

Qin Hao sighed when he heard this. While he felt sympathy for Feng Sanniang, he also hated King Ning even more.

"What? Your Majesty, are you regretting killing my eldest sister now?" Li Shishi smiled faintly and teased.

Qin Hao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Feng Sanniang harmed my ministers and dared to kill my imperial guards. She deserves to die."

"Even if I had the choice a hundred times, I would not show mercy."

As he spoke, he stared into Li Shishi's eyes and asked suspiciously, "By the way, since her identity is so special, your second sister's identity must be no simple matter, right?"

When Li Shishi heard this, her eyes became vague and she became a little uneasy.

After a long pause, she slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, I have been an orphan since childhood. It is only because my eldest sister values ​​me that she wants to train me to be her successor. That's all."

Seeing that she was not telling the truth, Qin Hao did not expose her on the spot. He thought to himself: Since you don’t want to tell me, I will play with you and see how long you can hide it.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Shishi quickly changed the subject and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you plan to do with my subordinates?"

How could Qin Hao not understand Li Shishi's thoughts? He glared at her unhappily and said coldly, "Humph, I'm keeping them for the New Year."

"Of course they should be beheaded in public as a warning to others."

Upon hearing this, Li Shishi felt a little uneasy and quickly knelt before him, pleading, "Your Majesty, this is not right!"

"How about you hand them over to me?"

Qin Hao reached out and lifted her chin, his eyes glancing at the half-exposed breasts and the collar of her clothes, and said with ill intent, "It all depends on your performance."

Li Shishi instantly understood the man's thoughts. She gave him a charming look, lowered her noble head, and began to sway up and down.

Soon, the car was filled with fragrance.

If the dignitaries and talented men in the capital saw this scene, I wonder what they would think.
