Chapter 84
"Your Highness, someone saw a palace maid helping someone inside. The back view looked like Miss Li's. It's not certain yet, but it's not confirmed whether this person is Miss Li," the guard said somewhat nervously.
Xu Heming frowned. Just as he raised his hand to push open the door to the Cold Palace, he saw Eunuch Liu rushing over.
"Your Highness Prince An, the Emperor requests your presence." Eunuch Liu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Prince An had not yet entered the Cold Palace.
Fortunately, I made it in time; otherwise, the Emperor would have blamed me for my poor performance.
Xu Heming's face darkened.
"Your Highness, His Majesty, there's news about Miss Li. Please come over," Eunuch Liu said with a forced smile.
"You all stay here and guard this place. Don't let anyone in or out of here." After instructing the people behind him, Xu Heming followed Eunuch Liu to the Imperial Study.
Li Zhiwei, inside the house, called out for a long time, but no one came. She felt a little desperate.
Who did she offend to deserve being abandoned here?
Could it be that Heaven was unhappy that she didn't die tragically in the Lin family and wanted her to die in this dilapidated house instead?
"Someone come here! Someone come here! Is anyone here?!" Li Zhiwei angrily pounded on the dilapidated door.
Dust fell in a flurry as Li Zhiwei exerted her strength.
"Cough cough!" Li Zhiwei choked a few times.
Just when Li Zhiwei thought she was going to be locked up here and die without anyone knowing, a water bag and some food were stuffed through the crack in the door.
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?" Li Zhiwei called out happily upon seeing the things that had been slipped in.
Unfortunately, apart from bringing her gifts, that person didn't utter a single word.
The person who arrived was none other than the emperor's secret guard.
She heard Li Zhiwei banging on the door repeatedly and worried that Li Zhiwei might be thirsty or hungry, so she brought her water and food.
The Emperor said that he wanted to find the person behind it all, so Miss Li would have to stay in this room a little longer.
But she couldn't expose herself either.
Li Zhiwei frowned. Someone was clearly feeding her, so why wasn't she saying anything?
Could it be that this person is trying to poison me?
"Did you secretly bring these things to me?" Li Zhiwei asked in a low voice.
Unfortunately, all she received in response was silence.
"You don't need to answer me. If so, just knock on the door." Li Zhiwei gritted her teeth and asked again.
Although she didn't expect the person to actually answer her.
But she can't stay locked up here forever, can she?
"buckle!"
However, the door panel knocked lightly, and although it was very soft, Li Zhiwei still heard it.
Li Zhiwei was overjoyed.
"Does Prince An know that I'm here?"
Li Zhiwei asked again.
This time, she didn't hear any knocking. Li Zhiwei gritted her teeth in dissatisfaction. That bastard Xu Heming still hadn't found her.
"Someone will come to save me, right?" Li Zhiwei asked uncertainly again.
Feeling a little sad, Xu Heming didn't even know where he was, and wondered who else could save him.
"buckle!"
