Man-made disaster?
Shangguan Wan 'er was shocked.
"Emperor, you're saying that when ChenQie's house was burned down, someone deliberately set it on fire?”
Zhao Zheng nodded and said," Your father offended someone back then, which is why he was in trouble. But don't worry, I already know who that person is!"”
He didn't lie to Shangguan Wan 'er.
In the original plot, when the protagonist found Shangguan Wan 'er's younger brother, he learned the truth about the fire in Shangguan Wan' er's house through the old beggar.
That night, the old beggar was sleeping outside the roof of the Shangguan family's house when he saw someone coming to set the fire. At the same time, he also saw the person who set the fire.
The main character had truly subdued Shangguan Wan 'er and made her throw herself into his arms. It was later on that the main character helped Shangguan Wan' er take revenge!
Since Zhao Zheng knew the plot, he would not let this go!
……
At this moment, Shangguan Wan 'er's face was pale.
Shangguan Wan 'er was stunned to hear such news. She seemed to be in disbelief.
However, Shangguan Wan 'er's charming eyes soon revealed hatred.
Now that she thought about it carefully, the fire at home when she was young was indeed suspicious.
Why was her house on fire?
Moreover…
When the fire started, it blocked the front and back doors, preventing the people inside from escaping.
If her father had not risked his life to send her and her brother out, the Shangguan family would have been exterminated.
The hatred of killing his parents was irreconcilable!
Shangguan Wan 'er immediately pleaded,"Your Majesty, please tell me who the murderer is!"”
"The person who ordered your entire family to be set on fire was the former county magistrate of Xinye County and the current assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Xu Mu!”
"Back then, your father found evidence of Xu Mu's corruption and wanted to report him. Xu Mu knew about it in advance, so he sent someone to burn your house down that night!”
At this point, Zhao Zheng suddenly said softly,"Speaking of which, Xu Mu was promoted to the position of assistant minister by your adoptive father, Li Yan!”
" What?!"
Knowing that the enemy was Xu Mu, Shangguan Wan 'er immediately fell to the ground.
When she was in Li Yan's residence, she had seen Xu Mu come to give gifts several times. She did know that Xu Mu was born in Bingzhou and was once the county magistrate of Xinye County.
At first, she thought Xu Mu was from the same hometown.
Unexpectedly.
This person was the enemy who killed her parents.
Shangguan Wan 'er did not doubt Zhao Zheng's words.
After all, Zhao Zheng was the emperor. How could he lie to others?
"Wan 'er, don't worry. I will avenge you!”"After I take care of Li Yan, I won't spare anyone who colluded with Li Yan!" Zhao Zheng said seriously.”
After saying this, Zhao Zheng looked at Shangguan Wan 'er.
He dared to say that he would deal with Li Yan in front of Shangguan Wan 'er because he could see that Shangguan Wan' er's loyalty to him was rapidly increasing.
When he said that he was willing to help Shangguan Wan 'er take revenge, Shangguan Wan' er's loyalty to him had already reached 67%!
"Chenqie thanks the emperor. The emperor is so sincere to Chenqie, Chenqie is afraid and has no way to repay him.”
Shangguan Wan 'er submitted.
At least on the surface, he submitted to Zhao Zheng.
In Shangguan Wan 'er's eyes, the Emperor would help her find her relatives, and then he would say that he would help her take revenge. The reason why he was putting in so much effort was that he wanted to completely possess her and make her feel grateful to the Emperor so that she could be a good woman in the harem in the future.
That was why she said that she wanted to devote herself to him to satisfy the Emperor's kindness.
As for why the Emperor wanted to get rid of the favored Prime Minister Li Yan?
Shangguan Wan 'er no longer cared!
Originally, Shangguan Wan 'er was grateful to Li Yan for raising her.
Although Shangguan Wan 'er knew that Li Yan was only using her and wanted to sell her for a good price, Li Yan had raised her after all.
But now that the truth was out, Shangguan Wan 'er also knew Li Yan's true colors. She also knew that Li Yan was covering up for her enemy. That little bit of gratitude instantly disappeared.
In the original plot, Shangguan Wan 'er only made the decision to help the protagonist deal with Li Yan after knowing that the enemy was Li Yan's accomplice.
Now.
It could be said that as long as Zhao Zheng wanted it now, Shangguan Wan 'er would be willing to sleep with him.
Looking at the beauty's expression, Zhao Zheng smiled and said,""Wan 'er, you look down on me. It's not my style to ask for favors. I came today to tell you this so that you won't be used by others.”
"Alright, I'm leaving. Rest early!”
At this point, Zhao Zheng really stood up and prepared to leave.
He did this not because he was unmoved by Shangguan Wan 'er, but because he felt that with Shangguan Wan' er's current loyalty, it was still a little unsafe.
He needed to endure for a while more to make Shangguan Wan 'er completely loyal to him.
He believed that once Feng Zhong sent someone to bring Shangguan Wan 'er's younger brother back, Shangguan Wan' er's loyalty to him would soar once again.
At that time, Zhao Zheng would naturally have a good taste of such a natural treasure…
Zhao Zheng now had a beauty like the Empress accompanying him, so there was no need for him to be so anxious towards Shangguan Wan 'er.
Seeing that Zhao Zheng really wanted to leave, Shangguan Wan 'er was a little surprised.
Didn't they hear that a fatuous ruler was lecherous?
Why didn't it look like it?
