Li Liao calmly replied.
"I've already arranged for men in the Celestial Capital. They will safely escort Princess Rouwan out of the city."
He had been plotting in secret for years and had made all the necessary preparations, which naturally included ensuring Princess Rouwan's safety.
However, Li Ji didn't feel the least bit relieved.
He stared intently at him and asked.
"If I refuse to rebel with you, what will you do?"
Li Liao had long expected this reaction and replied without hesitation.
"I will publicize your true identity and let the whole world know you are the son of the former Crown Prince Li Shu.
At that point, whether you agree or not, everyone will assume you're one of us."
Li Ji scoffed. "So it seems you've planned everything out already, leaving me no chance to refuse."
Li Liao spoke slowly.
"I know this will make you hate me.
But it doesn't matter.
I've already died once before.
The only reason I'm still alive is to fulfill the Crown Prince's last wish.
