Chapter 270 - Chapter 271: Not a Word Must Leak Out_1

"The Emperor owes his throne to me, and the whole world can bear witness to that. If he tries to punish me just because I don't want to be granted a title and reject his marriage decree, it defies common sense. No one would accept that. I'm not only his meritorious subject, but also a meritorious subject of the Daqian Dynasty. Without overthrowing Consort Yuan and the others, the Daqian Dynasty might have already become a vassal to the Qilian Kingdom by now. He can't afford to lose the people's hearts, he can't kill me. Moreover, I haven't committed any unforgivable crimes, I just want to live a life unconcerned with fame and wealth. If he kills a meritorious subject for such a simple wish, that would be utterly unreasonable."
