Zhu Qilan fell silent for a long time, unsure whether she was feeling pity for herself or for Wu Zhou's kingdom.
Perhaps, it was a bit of both.
"Cousin, hurry up and tell me, what is this woman's status in the Eastern King's Mansion and how much can she be sold for?" Lu Bei urged.
"Are you serious about this?"
Instead of directly answering, Zhu Qilan reminded him, "Imprisoning or kidnapping a member of the royal family is a serious crime. The woman is a member of the royal court. You should consider it carefully."
"No problem, as the leader of The Imperial Sect, opposing the royal family is part of my duty."
"..."
So you're not going to talk about loyalty to the king and love of the country now?
Zhu Qilan sighed, looked at Zhu Qiming who was severely injured, and softened her tone out of a generous pity, "Lu Bei, she once did me a favor. If it's just money you're after, leave her here and I'll pay."
