Capítulo 539: You have hurt me, Sheng Li

Sheng Li came to see Ying Lili. A soldier had informed him about Ying Lili's presence in the prison. Ying Lili was reading the medicine book that Hu Jingguo had written when the door opened and Sheng Li entered.

"Why did you meet Yongzheng? What did you talk to him about? Why did you not listen to my orders?" Sheng Li asked in a fit of rage. Ying Lili put the book down and stood up from the chaise.

"I needed to talk to Brother Yongzheng. It was important to talk to him because three lives were at stake," Ying Lili asserted.

"Do you know what he asked for as his last wish?" Sheng Li questioned her. "Why did you intervene, Lili? I told you not to show kindness to the people, who do not deserve it!" Sheng Li reminded her.

"I only told him to save his mother and wife before his death. I--"

"He asked the Emperor not to send them to the Cold Palace," Sheng Li asserted.

"Isn't that good? Why should they suffer?" Ying Lili queried him back.
