Li Longji's wife looked at Qing Nü nervously.
After hiding from place to place for the past ten years, she was not completely unaware of what had happened. Now that she saw Li Longji bringing Qing Nü into their home, she grew even more anxious!
"Husband, this..."
"Don't panic!"
Li Longji held his wife's hand and comforted her.
Qing Nü turned to look at her and smiled faintly.
"That's right. Your husband is right—don't panic! I'm not here to kill you. I'm here to help you!"
Help them?
His wife froze.
Qing Nü's gaze fell upon Li Heng.
"I'll help you become emperor. How about it?"
Li Heng was stunned upon hearing this. He stared at Qing Nü in astonishment, then looked at Li Longji and his mother.
"Don't look at them. Look at me! Whether you agree or not is entirely up to you."
"I..."
Li Heng opened his mouth.
He was thrilled!
There was no fear, no worry at all!
Emperor!
This was becoming emperor!
But... did he have what it took?
"Can I?"
Li Heng asked quietly.
Seeing his hesitation, Qing Nü laughed and waved her hand. "Don't be nervous! Of course you can! With me here, I'll teach you how to be a good emperor, how to rise amid this chaotic age, and establish a new Great Tang!"
"You wish to become... Sisheng's master?"
Li Longji looked utterly shocked.
"No."
Qing Nü shook her head.
She glanced at Li Longji and said, "Li Shimin is one of my disciples. Do you think your son is qualified to be Li Shimin's senior disciple?"
The moment those words fell, Li Longji immediately fell silent and hurriedly lowered his head.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Qing Nü shot him a glance, then waved her hand. "Come. Go to Shuofang with me!"
