385 Stoking the Fire (Added Chapter)

```

The Emperor had been unwilling to believe it, but every sentence, every word, every fact fit precisely with the experiences of Xiao Liulang.

It was hateful, his loyalty was true, yet in the end... in the end... to be betrayed like this...

And to hear what his mother, the empress dowager, had said?

Wasn't each word a knife stabbing into his heart...

The Emperor's heart was bleeding...

The feeling was like being pulled out from an icy hole and then viciously stabbed several times!

He staggered, nearly falling over!

Your Majesty!

Eunuch Wei dared not make a sound, hurriedly reaching out to support him.

To be honest, he was also terrified.

He had never expected that he and His Majesty would overhear what was being said at the Empress Dowager Jing's wall corner, nor that the content would be so explosive.

From the Empress Dowager Jing's tone, were both assassination attempts on Xiao Liulang orchestrated by her?
