"Return to the palace?" Liu Xie trembled slightly as he rose from the carriage.
However, after Liu Xie got up and took a step, he steadied himself to the point where even Sima Yi suspected that he had been intimidated into an illusion by Liu Xie.
Liu Xie slowly pushed open the carriage door, then stood atop the carriage coldly staring at Cao Hong. The contrast from before was so great that even the less intelligent Cao Hong noticed something different and became a bit wary.
"Yes, Your Majesty, please return to the palace." Cao Hong's tone softened somewhat.
"I can return to the palace, but have Cao Sikong come to see Me!" Liu Xie said coldly. Compared to before, his voice was a bit less fluent, but only at the moment he began speaking.
Cao Hong was stunned. The formerly timid Liu Xie now dared to speak to him in such a tone, which surprised Cao Hong.
