When he heard what Jiang Li said clearly, Qin Xiang jumped up from his chair in shock.

She looked at Jiang Li in shock, her voice changing tone in disbelief, "...Are you crazy? Do you know what you are talking about?"

What's the difference between asking her to steal the defense map of Mucheng and asking her to die?

Jiang Li looked at her calmly, "Are you afraid?"

Qin Xiang's face turned ugly, "If you don't want to help me, you can just say it. Isn't it interesting to trick me in a roundabout way?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Do I look idle? Is there anything in you that I can waste my time on?"

"If I want to amuse Menzi, wouldn't it be more interesting to watch a monkey playing tricks than to watch you?"

Jiang Li's mouth was so bad that Qin Xiang was so angry that his breathing became rapid.

But...she had to admit that Jiang Li really didn't need to tease her.

But if her condition is true, it will make her even more uncomfortable than teasing her!

Seeing Qin Xiang's face gloomy and silent, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Jiang Li said faintly, "Qin Xiang, I said that if you want to get high returns, you must have high sacrifices."

"Those benefits I mentioned, if you don't fight to the death, do you think they might fall into your hands?"

Qin Xiang gradually calmed down and thought about what Jiang Li said before.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "But why did I steal the defense map? Now Liang and Qing have always coexisted peacefully, and Liang has even taken the initiative to propose a marriage. It is impossible for them to fall out."

"So..." Her heart sank suddenly, "So, could it be that my father wants to launch a war against the Liang Kingdom?"

"But if that's the case, why did he still marry me? To paralyze them? Did he not care about my life at all?"

If Emperor Qing had already despaired once before by sending her to Liang for marriage despite her pleas, then if her suspicion was true, she would really feel like a joke.

They say emperors are ruthless, but can they be so ruthless?

But then Jiang Li shook his head and said, "Although I think your father would indeed do this if this happened, but unfortunately, he really didn't do it this time."

Jiang Li looked at Qin Xiang and said slowly: "If nothing unexpected happens, the Liang Kingdom will soon launch a war against the Qing Kingdom, and they want to marry the princess in order to paralyze the Qing Kingdom so that they can attack and win."

"So Qin Xiang...you should really think about escaping, otherwise once the war breaks out, you will be the first Qingguo person from Liang Kingdom to sacrifice to heaven."

Qin Xiang's eyes suddenly widened, "What?!"

Previously, she had only thought that marrying far away from Liang would be like the Luo concubine back then, helpless. Even if she died in confusion, no one would make the decision for her.

She just wasn't willing to end up like that, so she wanted to resist.

But now when she heard Jiang Li's words, she suddenly felt a layer of cold sweat break out all over her body.

It's not like she doesn't understand anything. She has read a lot of books in the palace. Wouldn't those wedding princesses or protons be the worst once the two countries go to war?

If she had enough time, she might be able to survive by trying to please her husband, but what Jiang Li was talking about was about to happen, which meant that she might have to be disposed of without even seeing her husband.

It would be better to kill her directly, but I am afraid that she, a princess, will be taken away to reward the three armies and die of humiliation and torture!

The more she thought about Qin Xiang, the more scared she felt. At this moment, she finally completely lost all lines of defense when facing Jiang Li.

She suddenly knelt down in front of Jiang Li, "Princess Changrong, please help me, I don't want to die!"

"I can't steal the defense map you mentioned. Can you change the conditions? I beg you!"

Looking at Qin Xiang's frightened face, Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and said, "No, you can do it."

"Qin Xiang, if you didn't listen to what I said next and chose the first way to escape by feigning death, I wouldn't force you."

"But now... there is no such thing as wanting and wanting in life. What I said and what you heard were not supposed to be known to you. Now that you have heard it, you have no chance to look back."

"Don't worry, I won't let you go alone. It's normal for the princess to be accompanied by several maids. They won't be suspicious."

Qin Xiang's heart sank to the bottom for a moment, fear and despair intertwined in his heart, but this time, there was no hope of survival in the despair.

Once she succeeds, she will get what she dreams of...

Jiang Li no longer needed any more explanations. Qin Xiang knew after a moment's thought that if Liang suddenly launched a war against Qing, Qing would definitely not have any advantage.

If at this critical moment, she stole the defense map in time and helped Qingguo turn defeat into victory, then she... would indeed be Qingguo's hero!

No matter how much the emperor didn't want to, he had to recognize her contribution and give her a certain reward.

Princess Heqin originally sacrificed herself for the people of the country, and in addition to saving the country from fire and water, she didn't dare to imagine how high her reputation would be pushed by then!

Of course, she has no more ambitions. A princess can achieve such an extreme level and make her stable for the rest of her life, which is her greatest expectation.

Partly forced and partly tempted, Qin Xiang finally gave in.

She took a deep breath, "Okay... As long as there are no problems with your arrangements and you don't ask me to die, I will promise you to try."

"But as you said before, I'm afraid it will be difficult for someone to accompany me."

She frowned, "You also saw my maid just now. She and the accompanying guards were all appointed by the emperor."

"Without the Emperor's approval, I'm afraid it's impossible for you to put people around me."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible. If they resist, just kill them."

Qin Xiang was shocked, "Are you crazy? How will you explain to the emperor if you kill them?"

"Are you stupid? The Liang Kingdom is going to start a war soon. Isn't it normal for them to sacrifice their lives for the country?"

Qin Xiang: "..."

She looked at Jiang Li with some words, and suddenly felt...as if she had never known her before.

Is this still the arrogant and brainless Jiang Li?

Or is it that the Jiang Li she originally thought was just her disguise?

In particular, the fact that Jiang Li could say such a thing at least meant that in the realm of Ningcheng, even if she killed people and then blamed Liang Guo, no one would inform the emperor.

...how long has she been here? It's actually possible to do this!

At this moment, Qin Xiang truly believed that maybe Jiang Li had the ability to let her steal the defense map and then escape back to Qingguo.

Without any objection to Jiang Li's words, Qin Xiang stood up and said, "The people from Liang who came to pick me up will arrive the day after tomorrow, so hurry up and make arrangements."

"Just tell me when everything is planned, and I... will work hard to complete it."
