Chapter 746: Life-Saving Talisman
Chapter 746: Life-Saving Talisman <<<
"Once you're sent out, it'll all be up to you. If you get sick then it'll be a real hassle, so let's just talk through the beaded curtain. I can see you."
Zhao Qinglan's tone was tinged with bitterness.
When this topic was brought up, Zhao Tailei's expression also became dim.
He no longer insisted and softly said, “Sister, I guess today is the day I have to leave. They say they're going to send me to Xian Chao.”
"Good morning!?"
This was Zhao Qinglan's first time knowing Zhao Tailei's destination. She urged, "That's a place of hardship, how could you possibly endure it?"
Right now, Zhao Qinglan wants Li Chen to change places for Zhao Tailai.
Even if seeking refuge, there is no need to go to such a savage and bitterly cold place as Xian Chao.
At the end of the day, she still felt sorry for Zhao Tailai.
But to Zhao Tailai's surprise, he laughed freely and said, "I think it's a good thing. Since I'm leaving, I might as well change my environment completely. And I've thought about it, although Xian Chao is a barbarian land and has just fought a war, it is precisely because of this that it suits me. Everything starts anew there, and maybe I can even find a wife and have children there, spending the rest of my life."
Zhao Qinglan paused for a moment and said, "You've grown up and matured."
Zhao Tailai said bitterly, "Sister, don't worry about me. They gave me an identity there and some money. At least I won't starve for several years. That's enough. It's definitely safer than anywhere else."
Zhao Qinglan's nose felt sour, and she felt a wave of sadness wash over her. But she didn't want to show weakness in front of Li Chen.
She held back her sadness and said, "When you get there, live a good life. Don't act like a spoiled master anymore. No one will support you there, everything depends on yourself. Just like I said before, I don't ask for your wealth and honor, being able to live a peaceful life is already a blessing."
Zhao Tailai said, “I know, after going through so much, I've also understood a lot of things. I will live well in the future.”
Saying this, Zhao Tailai suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhao Qinglan, tremblingly saying, "In the future, sister, you must also take care of yourself."
This vortex in the capital city involves power struggles at the highest level of the Qin Empire. He can run away, but his sister cannot.
This is also what Zhao Tailai worries about.
"Sister, if things truly are beyond our control, don't go down this path alone. Our father has gone mad, he can do anything. You don't have to sacrifice your life for him. He sees us as pawns, you must also think of yourself."
Zhao Tailai's words made Zhao Qinglan even more pleased.
And Zhao Tailai's next words moved Li Chen deeply.
"Sister, the other day, while I was at home, I overheard Father talking with Zhang Biwu and Fu Yuzhi. They were saying they were going to contact some assassins to carry out a mutiny if things became desperate. And afterwards, Father met with many generals very frequently."
"I memorized all the generals I knew and wrote down their names. Keep this list safe. When the time is right, you can use it to bargain with the Crown Prince and secure your safety."
As soon as these words were uttered, Li Chen's eyes lit up.
He never expected that Zhao Tai, after leaving, could still bring him such a big gift.
This list will definitely be able to send Zhao Xuanji to his death at a critical moment.
And Zhao Qinglan was also stunned.
She never expected that her brother, who had always been a frivolous wastrel with no ambition, would be the one to deliver such a decisive blow at this crucial moment.
But... silly brother, the life-saving talisman you left behind is right under Li Chen's nose!
