Inside the palace...

When the old eunuch Gao informed the Empress that the Eastern Factory had arrested Wang Yuanya, the Princess of Qin, and all the abnormalities that had occurred to her, her first reaction was, "Could it be that Li Jize is going to rebel?"

Otherwise, how to explain what his wife Wang Yuanya did?

But on second thought, something seems wrong!

How could this kind of information transmission, especially the rebellion, which concerns the nine clans, be treated so lightly?

But if it was a misunderstanding, then these abnormalities in Wang Yuanya really couldn't be explained!

Thinking of this, the empress looked at Eunuch Gao and said coldly, "Can Wang Yuanya be recruited?"

Eunuch Gao shook his head. "She just said she didn't know the girl who delivered the letter! She didn't even know who sent it to her."

Upon hearing this...

Even the empress is funny!

"Ridiculous! I can't believe such a strange letter would be delivered to the hands of the Princess of Qin for no apparent reason! Moreover, the letter revealed her identity. What secrets does the Princess of Qin have?"

"This……"

Eunuch Gao frowned, and the Empress, startled, glanced at him. The old eunuch, frightened, lowered his head and hurriedly explained, "Everyone! The Prince of Qin is about to go to war, and the East Factory's arrest of the Princess is already abrupt. If they continue to torture..."

The implication is that this is really too much!

He first took away Li Jize's military power, then drove him crazy, and then squeezed his surplus value when he encountered danger.

The value of the person has not been squeezed out yet, and you turned around and arrested his wife and tortured him to extract a confession. This is unacceptable.

After hearing these words, the empress was also worried!

With her hands behind her back, she paced back and forth, then asked, "If that's the case, then why don't we take him into custody and interrogate him after Li Jize leaves for the war?"

Eunuch Gao thought about it and thought, this move is retrograde! Isn't this the method that the royal family is best at using?

Once you've finished your battle, it will still be time for us to get rid of you.

Just when Eunuch Gao was about to follow the Empress's advice and agree that temporary imprisonment was feasible...

Who would have thought that a little eunuch outside the palace gate would hurried over.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin requests an audience outside the palace gates!"

"what?"

For a moment, both Eunuch Gao and the Empress were stunned.

Why did Li Jize come here in the middle of the night?

"What's his business?"

The empress frowned and asked with a hint of displeasure.

"Your Majesty! His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin said he has no intention of fighting. Please revoke your order!"

The empress was so angry that her lungs were about to explode after hearing what the little eunuch said.

"Retract your order? My words are as sacred as the emperor's decree! How can he just take it back?"

The empress stood up and slammed all the memorials off the table. As she walked away, she turned her head and looked at Eunuch Gao, saying angrily, "This bastard is threatening me! If Wang Yuanya is not released, he will disobey my orders and not go to war!"

Eunuch Gao looked at the empress in surprise. Why was she so angry?

You captured someone's wife. Any man would be angry!

I am afraid……

The empress's anger was not only due to Li Jize's "disobedience", but there was another layer of meaning in it.

"Your Majesty! If that's the case, why not summon the King of Qin and test him?"

"What do you mean...?"

The angry empress was stunned for a moment, and then she began to react.

Since Wang Yuanya refused to confess, saying the note was delivered by mistake, and since she couldn't be tortured...

Why not test the waters with Li Jize?

If their statements are inconsistent, then you can't blame me for being cruel and ruthless.

Thinking of this, the empress suddenly understood. She returned to the throne and sat down, then shouted to the eunuch outside the door, "Send the order! Summon the Prince of Qin to see you!"

The young eunuch agreed and hurried down to report.

Soon, under his leadership, Li Jize's voice was heard outside the door, "Your servant Li Jize, pays homage to our emperor. Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long, long live the emperor!"

Inside the Yangxin Palace, the empress did not ask for formalities to be waived, and naturally would not invite Li Jize in.

She just said coldly through the door, "King Qin! I heard from the eunuch that you came to resign. Is this true?"

"Yes! Your Majesty, I have something going on at home and I really have no intention of fighting!"

"Oh? I wonder what's going on in the King of Qin's family?"

"Your Majesty! The emperor has evil men under his command who have kidnapped my wife, Wang Yuanya! My beloved wife is missing, and I am deeply worried. I fear that this will delay your majesty's important work! I beg your majesty to choose another capable person!"

These words slapped both the Empress and Eunuch Gao in the face.

It was clearly the East Factory that arrested him, but he said it was kidnapped by criminals. Secondly, if such a thing happened under the feet of the emperor, it would mean that you, the empress, are not good at governing.

The Empress was truly annoyed. She coldly said, "Prince of Qin! You are my General of Heavenly Strategy and the pillar of the Great Qi! You should care about the world and put your country first. How can you be so sentimental? Besides, from what I know, Wang Yuanya is a famously talented woman with a strange temper and ugly looks! How could you possibly have deep feelings for her?"

This is really incomprehensible!

Eunuch Gao next to him was a little surprised and looked at his master strangely. Why did he feel that there was a hint of jealousy in his words?

But Li Jize outside the door fell into silence...

After thinking carefully, he replied, "Li Jize has been fighting on the border for many years. Since childhood, his father has taught him to be loyal to his country, to fight on the battlefield, to serve the country! To serve His Majesty!"

Empress: "..."

What? Is there something wrong with this?

Li Jize changed the subject and sighed, "But Li Jize is also a human being! He gets hurt, he bleeds! He longs to go home and have someone care about him. He didn't have that person before, but he did after that day!"

I don't know why, but those words were originally meant to fool the empress, just to make her release the ugly woman Wang Yuanya.

but……

When talking about this, Li Jize unexpectedly became a little stupid.

Because in his previous life, although he was a doctor of military industry, Li Jize was actually an "overtime dog" and a "tech geek".

He has never experienced the love of his parents or the love of his lover.

Every day I go back and forth between the company and home.

In fact, he also longed for the lights of thousands of homes, one of which was lit for him.

All of this was experienced through the two women after traveling through time.

When I think of them... I think of Huang Suqiu, the mother who protected her foolish son on a rainy night, regardless of being kicked out of her husband's house.

When Li Jize called her mother seriously for the first time, he had already accepted her.

And Wang Yuanya, who quarreled with him all day long, but when she heard that he was called into the palace by the empress, she would be inexplicably worried and would stand at the door waiting for him to come home. Although she was ugly, she had a kind heart.

The empress is angry!

She was completely enraged by the words of her childhood sweetheart, Brother Ze.

"What if I insist that you lead the troops to war?"
