Liang Wan's lips trembled. Her voice was a little hoarse. "Are you going to kill him?"
She never imagined that the letter the Grandmaster had entrusted to her on his deathbed was actually a request for the Empress Dowager to kill Lu Xiu.
The Empress Dowager's face was impassive. She did not deny it.
