Chapter 179 Punishing the Zhao Siblings

Zhao Tang, however, turned pale and said, "How could we ordinary people know so much about what happens in the palace? But the couple did bring a wheelchair."

She wasn't willing; she was still clinging to a sliver of hope.

Seeing Zhao Tang's anxious face and recalling the various horrifying rumors about the King of Qin, she could only swallow her tears in humiliation and say, "I understand."
