"It seems I was wrong from the start!" she spoke again. "Shouldn't I seriously consider how to treat this son of the Great Xia's God of War?"
Upon hearing this, Li Hu was immediately terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. He wanted to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he could only stammer out a series of indistinct words.
Li Hu knew that if the Empress flew into a rage, that would be good, and the matter could still be salvaged.
But once the Empress calms down, it means she has lost patience.
The calmer the scene, the stronger the murderous intent.
In fact, Wei Maozhen did indeed intend to kill him.
If it were about Lin Mo's previous suppression of bandits, it would only have surprised her.
But now, having annihilated more than 100,000 enemy troops, he has to think deeply about this.

"The Empress intends to use my head to quell the anger of her ministers!" he thought. "No, I cannot sit idly by and wait to die!"
