Chapter 716: The Tool Man
Li Hongyuan heard her muttering, but said nothing.
The two of them walked side by side in silence for a while, and then he suddenly said, "Sometimes I think you're the most unambitious person in the world, lazy, without discipline, and indifferent to everything."
Jiang Ning pinched a plum blossom, smelling it as she walked, not responding to his evaluation.
Li Hongyuan said again, "But sometimes, I feel that your desire for power is very strong. You know, occasionally the way you look at Emperor Father, it's as if you want to replace him."
Jiang Ning laughed in astonishment, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know that if this gets out, I could easily be nailed to the pillar of shame for plotting a rebellion?"
"No one else is here."
Li Hongyuan always liked to be alone, occasionally accompanied by a single eunuch, Li Quan. As for Jiang Ning, she didn't mind having a group of people around her, but ever since Gucheng, she got used to going out without anyone.
