Qin Hongmian was furious. "Of course, Wanqing is my daughter. How could I not save her!"
"That's good," Li Qinglu nodded. "I see that Princess and Miss Mu look somewhat similar. It's not easy to distinguish them in the dark. Why don't Princess replace Miss Mu tonight?"
"What!" Qin Hongmian's face instantly flushed red. She was a woman. How could she not be ashamed when she heard such a request?
The other party's reaction seemed to have been predicted. Li Qinglu said, "Miss Mu is not only a virgin, but also the Empress conferred by His Majesty. If she is defiled by Helian Tieshu tonight, not only will the entire Western Xia be humiliated, but the Western Xia Imperial Family will also be ashamed. Moreover, her life will be ruined. She will live in pain for the rest of her life …"
Seeing Qin Hongmian's thoughtful expression, Li Qinglu smiled slightly and continued, "Princess, you are different. You are already married. What difference does it make if you do it more or less? Sacrificing you for one night can save Miss Mu's lifelong happiness. What will you choose? "
"There's no difference between one more and one less?" Qin Hongmian laughed angrily. "What are you saying? Don't you know that the most important thing for a woman is chastity?"
"Don't pretend to be a chaste woman in front of me." Li Qinglu sneered. "In the early years, you secretly had a baby with Duan Zhengchun, the Prince of Zhennan. Then, you married the King of Tiandu of Western Xia while pregnant with someone else's child. Later, you were favored by the former Emperor. You have no idea how many men have touched your body in this lifetime. You still have the nerve to mention the word chastity?"
"Why do you know so much about these things?" Qin Hongmian gritted her teeth. She clearly only had a relationship with Duan Zhengchun, and she was even more separated from Mu Yuqi. Li Yuanhao was rescued by Song Qingshu that time. Nothing happened at all. However, it was not convenient for her to talk about these details with an outsider.
Li Qinglu shook her head. "You don't have to worry about this. I have my own information channels. What you should consider now is whether or not to save your daughter's lifelong happiness. "
"Even if I wanted to save him, Helian Tieshu's surroundings are heavily guarded. It's not that easy to substitute him." Qin Hongmian's fingernails were about to sink into her flesh. It was obvious that her heart was already in turmoil.
"Princess, you don't have to worry about this. I just happen to be Helian Tieshu's personal bodyguard. As long as you nod your head, I can naturally take care of the rest." Hearing her tone soften, the corners of Li Qinglu's mouth curled up in a pleased smile.
"You are Helian Tieshu's trusted aide?" Qin Hongmian was shocked, and suddenly asked suspiciously, "Could it be that Helian Tieshu sent you to deceive me, to make me willingly … serve him!"
Li Qinglu laughed inwardly. Everyone said that those with big breasts had no brains. Looking at it now, it didn't seem to be accurate. This woman clearly wasn't stupid and had guessed half of the truth with just a few words. Unfortunately, no matter how smart she was, it was impossible for her to guess the truth of the matter.
"Princess, you're thinking too much. Fine, I'll reveal my identity to you." Li Qinglu muttered to herself for a moment, then put on an awkward expression. After a long time, she continued, "In reality, I am the Emperor's trusted aide. In the early years, I received the Emperor's orders to hide by Helian Tieshu's side and became his trusted aide. Unfortunately, Helian Tieshu allied with the Mongols and suddenly launched a coup. Currently, the Emperor's whereabouts are unknown. The only thing I can do now is to do my best to protect the Emperor's people."
"Lady Mu is the Empress appointed by the Emperor himself. I don't want the Emperor to know that Lady Mu has already been … so I took the risk of exposing my identity in an attempt to save Lady Mu." As Li Qinglu spoke, she even somewhat believed in her own words. She couldn't help but admire her superb acting skills.
When Qin Hongmian heard that her words were reasonable, her suspicions were dispelled. She couldn't help but sigh: "Even in this situation, you still don't care about the risk and want to be loyal to your master. You really are a rare loyal person."
Even though she knew that the person her daughter liked was Song Qingshu and not Li Langzuo, she didn't know where Song Qingshu was now. The only person she could rely on was Li Langzuo's former subordinates. Naturally, she couldn't expose her daughter's feelings.
"Does Princess agree?" Li Qinglu's eyebrows rose, a trace of playfulness flashing through her eyes like a cat playing with a mouse.
Qin Hongmian smiled sadly: "Do I have a choice?" Even though the other's words were harsh, when she thought about it carefully, they weren't without reason. In any case, she wasn't innocent. What was wrong with sacrificing a bit for her daughter?
Li Qinglu revealed a trace of a smile: "Don't worry, Princess. Right now, only the heavens, the earth, you, and I know. As long as you don't speak of it, no one will know what happened afterwards."
Qin Hongmian snorted coldly: "You don't need to say such things to comfort me. Since I've already made a decision, I naturally have the corresponding awareness. However, I'm more worried about Helian Tieshu. Since he was able to plot against Li Langzuo, it proves that he is a meticulous person. How easy would it be to trick him?"
"You don't have to worry about this, Princess," Li Qinglu explained, "Miss Mu already looks like Princess. When the time comes, I'll try to dim the lights in the room. Also, Helian Tieshu is riding on the crest of success. Later, he will drink with the Mongolians. When the time comes, he will definitely be seventy to eighty percent drunk. In that kind of environment, how would he be able to tell who is who? However, Princess needs to be careful. It's best to remember the shyness and pain of a young girl's first crack. When the time comes, put on an appropriate disguise and don't be too enthusiastic. "
Qin Hongmian's face was bright red. She said angrily: "Am I that kind of shameless woman? Why would I be so enthusiastic towards that guy?"
Li Qinglu smiled and said: "Wang Fei worries too much. That's not what I meant. In a while, I will find a maid to help Wang Fei bathe and change into the same clothes as Miss Mu. She will also let down her hair to be like Miss Mu. Then, when the time is right, I will send Wang Fei over."
Thinking about the fate she was about to face, Qin Hongmian's expression changed: "Then will you take the opportunity to rescue Wan Qing?"
Li Qinglu sighed: "It won't be that easy. Helian Tieshu is heavily guarded. What I can do is the limit of what I can do. I can only switch you and Miss Mu back before daybreak. If I could rescue her, why would I be so thick-skinned as to let Wang Fei do such a thing?"
Hearing the words "such a thing", Qin Hongmian's heart jumped. She hurriedly asked: "But if Wan Qing stays by his side, what if Helian Tieshu makes her serve him in bed in the future?"
Li Qinglu calmly looked at her. She suppressed the bad taste in her heart and said: "Then when the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Wang Fei."
Qin Hongmian: "…"
"No, absolutely not. I'll only help this once. After that, you have to think of a way to rescue her." Thinking that she might be under Helian Tieshu's tyrannical power for a long time in the future, Qin Hongmian shuddered.
Li Qinglu revealed a hesitant expression: "Alright, I'll try my best. Maybe in two days, the Emperor will counterattack. At that time, the clouds will disperse and the moon will shine."
However, in her heart, she thought to herself: If this kind of thing happened the first time, wouldn't it be a matter of course in the future?
"Also, this matter must not be known by Wan Qing!" Qin Hongmian suddenly said.
