Chapter 188 Earthquake is coming! 185 is dead
"If you want revenge, just say it directly. Why are you making up lies?" When He Zhaojun realized what was happening, she was furious and slapped Li Fu in the face.
She didn't have the same hobby of slapping people as the other princesses, and she only wanted to force Li Fu to retreat. But Li Fu didn't dodge or evade, and took the blow head-on.
"Did I bite your arm to seal the alliance? My He Wangcai is the best at biting people, why don't you marry him?! This is totally incomprehensible and unreasonable!"
Perhaps because Li Fu was angry, He Zhaojun felt a little dizzy, and the things in front of her eyes began to shake. Her face suddenly changed drastically.
He Zhaojun only felt the ground shaking twice, and then trembling violently. The beams of the house creaked, and the corner closest to them collapsed, and the tiles almost fell on her head.
"Oh no, there's an earthquake!" Before she could finish her words, Li Fuhu protected her from behind.
The man quickly parried the falling wood and pushed her out without saying a word: "Go!"
The next moment, the roof where she had just stood tilted and fell down, and a beam that was as big as a man's arms fell down, and all the tiles fell off. The entire woodshed turned into ruins in an instant.
"Li Fu! Li Fu!" He Zhaojun was furious. She moved the tiles and bricks with her hands and dug down like a madman.

At the same time, the capital.
Liang Shang was killed. In an instant, the people in the capital spread the rumor that Qu Lingjun had been caught having an affair with the prince, and she killed her husband in anger. The emperor and empress were furious and ordered a thorough investigation into the matter.
After Qu Lingjun finished telling the story of Liang Shang's murder, Shao Shang, Yuan Shen, Ling Buyi, Wen Ziduan and others were trying hard to find the truth. When Shao Shang found the secret room, he was held hostage at knifepoint by Liang Shang's third brother Liang Xia.
"This blood-stained shirt... is it you who killed Liang Shang?" Shao Shang looked at the blood-stained shirt on the shelf in the secret room, and realized that the tragedy that happened to the Liang family today was all caused by Liang Xia.
Liang Xia's face was filled with madness: "He is uneducated and unskilled, yet he has usurped the position of Patriarch. Even Liang Muzhou agreed to pass the position to him! Why?!"
"If you go out and confess your crime now, I will definitely plead for you and give you a lighter sentence. Don't make the same mistake again!" Shao Shang tried to find an opportunity to escape while persuading him.
But Liang Xia would never believe her words: "The only way for me to survive is to hold you hostage, right?"
Before he finished speaking, both of them felt a tremor, and the secret room was buzzing. Books were falling down one after another, and the two of them were unable to stand steadily. Shao Shang's neck was cut by the blade, and blood was flowing.
"Get out quickly, this place is going to collapse!" Shao Shang's eyes went dark as he looked at Liang Xia. This man was most afraid of death, so he shouldn't be waiting here to be buried alive, right?
The next moment, Liang Xia grabbed her and jumped out of the secret room. The Liang family was wealthy, and their tiled houses were the most sturdy, but they were also affected by the earthquake. Several buildings collapsed, and the entire courtyard was in chaos, filled with smoke and dust.
Ling Buyi pulled Liang's mother over. She had just wanted to take advantage of the earthquake to escape, but unexpectedly, she was hit on the head by a falling vase and her face was bleeding.
"Liang Xia, if you continue to resist, your mother won't be able to get treatment. Why don't you surrender?"
For a moment, the cries of women and children were endless. The next moment, Ling Buyi swung a knife and hit Liang Xia on the shoulder. She took the opportunity to break free from the restraint and ran to Ling Buyi's side.
"It's not that I don't care about you, it's just..." Ling Buyi looked at Shao Shang, wanting to explain but not knowing where to start.
Shao Shang hugged him and nodded repeatedly: "I understand, you pretended not to care, but just wanted him to let his guard down. Sister Zhaojun said so."
Ling Buyi's expression darkened. "Earthquake," your sister Zhaojun also said.
