I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight

Chapter 130 Ashes

"I have no other choice but to come to you, Your Majesty, for help."

Li Zao fell to his knees with a thud, his eyes filled with sincerity that Su Minglang had never seen in him before.

Su Minglang held her forehead helplessly. After all, although Li Zhao had sworn more than once, she still had something on him. If it was not an excessive request, she would have no choice even if he agreed.

"You say it."

Li Zhao hesitated for a moment and took out a thick stack of letters from his bosom and handed them over. "This matter cannot be explained in a few words. This letter contains the beginning and end of the matter and all the roots, as well as my handwriting and seal."

"I am handing this letter to Your Majesty as a token of my loyalty. Now Your Majesty holds the evidence that can put me to death. I only hope that you can trust me."

"Aren't you afraid that I will hand it over to His Majesty?" Su Minglang asked.

Li Zhao shook his head upon hearing this, "Since I have handed this item over to Your Majesty, I accept it no matter what."

"Even if I reject you?"

"Even if Your Majesty rejects me."

There was a desperate belief in Li Zhao's eyes, but Su Minglang actually saw a deep sense of fatigue in it. She looked at the letter in her hand again. She didn't know what kind of miserable past this ordinary piece of paper contained.

Su Minglang swallowed all her doubts, holding the letter tightly in her hand, but she was torn between heaven and earth in her heart. She knew that this matter was absolutely serious, and she might lose everything if she made a mistake. But on the other hand, if you use this opportunity to win over Li Zhao, it will indeed be a great help to her. After all, the former dynasty and the harem have always been inseparable.

What she lacked most was the support from the previous dynasty. After all, the Su family really couldn't count on her.

Even though Li Zhao is weak and has no good family background, it is precisely because of this that he now has the favor of His Majesty and his future is definitely limitless.

The premise is that he does not have so many untouchable secrets. Just based on these secrets, this favorite of his in public and behind the scenes would be beheaded in an instant.

The room was dead silent for a long time. Xiao Ye saw Su Minglang's brows getting more and more furrowed, and a tense atmosphere instantly spread. The look she gave Li Zhao became more and more unfriendly.

It’s this guy. Every time he comes, he gives his master a headache for several days!

But the master has been hanging out with him recently, and no one knows what he is planning.

Of course, she trusted Su Minglang 100% in her heart, but Li Zhao was not trustworthy just looking at his face, and Xiao Ye especially thought so.

What's more, his reputation is extremely bad.

"Let's go!" Su Minglang was the first to speak and break the silence. She rubbed her brows tiredly and waved her hands irritably. "If you stay here, someone will find you and I won't care. Don't cause trouble for me."

"Let's go quickly."

Li Zhao nodded silently without saying anything more, stood up, bowed deeply, and turned away.

He didn't know whether his decision was right or not, but he had no other choice.

Although Li Zhao had been indulgent and used vile means during his years in the court, to the point that everyone hated him, only he himself knew that every step he took was carefully considered, and even his reputation was the result of his calculations.

He had been cautious all his life, and contacting Su Minglang was the boldest decision he had ever made, especially handing his name to her, not to mention the one far away in the abandoned palace.

The life of the person he had tried so hard to protect.

Li Zhao was so conflicted, and Su Minglang wasn't having a good time either. She read the letter again and again, but couldn't take the next step.

Xiao Ye saw Su Minglang's tangle. She reached out and snatched the letter, threw it on the table and said, "No matter how hard you look, you can't see the contents through the cover."

"If you haven't decided whether to intervene or not, don't take on this hot potato!"

"I haven't made up my mind yet." Su Minglang stood up and held the letter in his hand again, "But whether I read it or not, I've already fallen into it."

From the moment she met that man last night, or from the first time she stepped into that abandoned palace, Su Minglang had been trapped in that stagnant water. Knowing where this stagnant water came from would not save her from it.

"Heh!" Su Minglang gave a helpless smile and waved his hand to let Xiaoye leave. Although Xiaoye was worried, she knew that this was not something she could control. She could only accept her fate and leave, and he did not forget to close the door for her.

Su Minglang stroked the envelope. The neat cover had been wrinkled by him. Su Minglang reached out his fingers to the seal but found that his hands were shaking.

Perhaps the dream about homework was too horrifying, Su Minglang comforted himself in this way.

But as her fingers got closer, the tragic scenes in the dream emerged one after another, as if showing Su Minglang the consequences of her willful actions.

"Snapped!"

Su Minglang tore open the envelope, and the thick letter paper fell on the table with a loud noise. Even though he had just passed the house, Su Minglang felt that the house was unusually dark with the doors and windows closed.

She picked up a thick stack of letter paper and read it from the beginning. As the lines of ink words entered her mind, the sky outside the window gradually darkened.

When the distant sky had been dyed orange, Xiaoye was pacing anxiously outside the door. The dinner had been reheated over and over again, but Su Minglang was reluctant to open the door.

Even though the stack of letters was thick, it was not enough to spend an entire afternoon reading them. However, she did not dare to enter rashly, for fear of disturbing Su Minglang's thoughts.

After a long time, just when Xiao Ye thought that she would not come out all night, the door opened quietly, Su Minglang stood at the door and looked at her, and a smell of ashes came from the room.

Xiao Ye looked back through her, the room was dark and she couldn't see anything clearly. She turned her gaze back to Su Minglang, the man in front of her had fatigue in his eyes and brows.

"Master..." She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. She could only point to the kitchen dryly and said, "Are you hungry? Dinner is ready."

"Have you had dinner?" Su Minglang asked softly.

"I have used it!" Xiao Ye replied, but then she heard a gurgling sound from her stomach.

Su Minglang laughed, swallowed his refusal, waved his hand helplessly and said: "Bring the food, come in and have some together."

Seeing that she still had an appetite, Xiao Ye thought that she should be fine, so he happily served her the meal.

Nanxing followed Su Minglang in and saw the unburned ashes on the table at a glance.

She relit the shredded paper on the candle, cleaned up the paper that had completely turned to ashes, and then asked, "You burned the evidence that Lord Li left behind. How can you control him from betraying you in the future?"

"He has handed me a bigger handle."
