422: A tit-for-tat confrontation

Su Xinyi was immediately amused by Zhu Chanyi's words and looked at her, saying, "Yes, I also think it's like a dream, but if they weren't certain, how would they dare to do it?"

Zhu Chanyi's expression darkened, and it was a long while before she replied, "Yes, the Li Family still has Imperial Tutor Li, an Elder of Three Dynasties, a heavyweight at court, and even Your Majesty shows great favor to Imperial Tutor Li. With him around, Li Ji might indeed be able to return to the capital. I'm just very curious about what they'll use to persuade Your Majesty to grant a pardon."

Su Xinyi couldn't think of a way either, but remembering what Li Qingyi had said at the time, she had only mentioned that the Li Family wanted to facilitate Li Ji's return but hadn't disclosed how they planned to do it.
