Zhu Wanqing's face grew increasingly red because someone was pressing on her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.

"Do you think your woman will side with you?" Zhu Wanqing's eyes welled up with tears. She had thought that Fourteenth would never really want to kill her, but just now she clearly felt that this man was pressing on her throat so hard that she couldn't breathe.

The sudden release caused Zhu Wanqing to cough uncontrollably. She clutched her throat, bent over, and coughed violently.

"What did you say!" Fourteen stared at Zhu Wanqing's head. He had almost impulsively killed her just now, but seeing the tears in her eyes, even though his heart was still wounded, he still couldn't bear to really kill her.

"Hmph, go back and ask your Consort Chen properly. I came to help you out of kindness, and this is how you treat me. I, Zhu Wanqing, was blind!" Zhu Wanqing looked up, and there was a clear red mark on her neck after the Fourteenth Prince had pressed his throat down.

"Your White Lotus Sect has always been a remnant of the Ming Dynasty and an enemy of my Great Qing. From the very beginning, we have been mortal enemies, and I will never cooperate with you," Fourteenth said solemnly.

"Haha, you're lying. If you considered me your mortal enemy, why couldn't you bear to kill me?" Zhu Wanqing laughed, but the tears in her eyes made her even more captivating.

Fourteen's thoughts were exposed, and a hint of unease flashed in his eyes. He knew in his heart that he was destined to be entangled with the woman in front of him.

"Yinzhen, I know you like me, don't you? Then why hold it in? Why can't you open your heart and like me? I can give myself to you anytime you're willing!" Zhu Wanqing said. What other women dared not say, she seemed to say without a problem.

"Yinzhen, look at yourself! You are the emperor's son and a great general with a powerful army at your command, yet you don't even dare to embrace the woman you love!" Zhu Wanqing continued.

Fourteen stared coldly at Zhu Wanqing; her words had indeed struck at his weak point.

Fourteenth Prince suddenly understood why he liked her: she, like that woman, was not the submissive type. They possessed a different kind of radiance that attracted both Fourth Prince and Fourteenth Prince.

"What do you want from me?" Although Yinzhen liked Zhu Wanqing, he also knew that this woman never made a deal without benefiting herself.

“I want to have you. I just want you as a person,” Zhu Wanqing said.

"Heh, if you want to cooperate with me, you should tell the truth. If you wanted to, why wait until now?" Fourteen said.

"Having you is only one thing; the second is that I want to help you obtain the throne. Once you become emperor, I will become your concubine. As long as you agree to legalize the White Lotus Sect and stop its suppression," Zhu Wanqing said.

"That's all?" Fourteen asked, clearly not believing it.

"That's all. I'm just a woman. Although I'm the granddaughter of Emperor Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty is gone, and that's it. What can a woman like me do? As long as you don't mind my background and let me depend on you, I have no other requests," Zhu Wanqing said.

Fourteen pondered her words carefully, trying to find a flaw in them.

"Yinzhen, you really don't believe me?" Zhu Wanqing said when she saw that Fourteenth Prince still refused to believe her.

"What if I don't agree?" Fourteen didn't answer, but asked instead.
