Magistrate Li Zhi trembled at the sight, and his hands and feet seemed to be frozen in place for an instant.
Beiming Liancheng's hands were half hanging, and the half-ice jade finger on the black glove emitted a cold light under the oil lamp. He curled his mouth lazily and glanced at Li Zhi leisurely: "Don't you, Lord Li, want to interrogate this palace?
,continue."
"Misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding. Your Majesty, your Majesty, I didn't recognize Mount Tai. I bumped into His Highness the Seventh Highness. Your crime is worthy of death!" Li Zhi was not sure what Beiming Liancheng was thinking, so he stammered.
.
Beiming Liancheng smiled again and said nothing.
The stretched hand turned slightly.
Just hear a crash!
He forcefully pulled off the chain straps nailed to the wall!
Then, he slowly turned his wrist, half-smiling but not smiling, showing unspeakable evil.
But even such brutal movements were more elegant and beautiful when he performed them.
Li Zhi was completely dumbfounded. It was only now that he realized that this man was not without martial spirit at all, but that he deliberately let him catch and tie him up, waiting for the Holy Lord to arrive and kill him without leaving a trace!
"It seems that Mr. Li doesn't understand what I'm saying." Beiming Liancheng tugged on the chain on his hand.
The cold sound of clanking metal resounded in the dungeon, immediately making the surrounding air feel extremely low.
"Your Majesty... Your Highness..." Li Zhi saw him approaching slowly, and was so frightened that he wanted to turn around and run away!
"The sky is high and the emperor is far away? Huh?" Beiming Liancheng suddenly smiled, his smile was very unrestrained, with a hint of demonic coolness, which made people shudder: "The sky is high and the emperor is far away!"
Li Zhi shook his body and did not dare to move at all.
Beiming Liancheng walked forward with long strides and looked at him condescendingly.
The emperor almost understood now, and glanced over with cold eyes: "Come here! Take the flower feathers off Mr. Li's head for me, push him to the Meridian Gate, and behead him in public!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this humble minister has been wronged, Your Majesty!" Li Zhi was half kneeling and half walking, trying to grab the emperor's clothes!
The emperor flicked his long sleeves: "Take him down!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Li Zhi roared louder than his voice, heart-breaking, and kicked the ground with both feet.
But the emperor didn't even look at him. What a politician hates most is that these officials do one thing in front of him and another behind his back!
"Wei Chen is wronged!" Li Zhi was still shouting at the top of his lungs.
Nangong Baiye, who had been silent until now, spoke. She flicked her wrist and half-curved her thin lips: "Your Majesty, maybe Mr. Li really has some secrets that he has not revealed. I also have some things that I want to ask Mr. Li."
The emperor frowned and waved his hands towards the guards who stopped.
As soon as the guards let go, Li Zhi immediately stopped moving. He sat on the ground, lowered his head, and turned his eyes back and forth, as if he was calculating something.
"Master Li, now that we have reached this point, I think you understand your current situation better than anyone else. Are you still waiting for that person to save you?" Nangong Baiye slowly squatted down and smiled at him: "Haha
, Mr. Li, stop daydreaming. You are just a useless pawn to her now. Not only useless, you may also become her weakness. Do you think she will come to save you based on her scheming? "
Li Zhi was stunned and suddenly raised his head.
Nangong Baiye smiled: "When I came in, Nangong Rui'er had already arranged someone to tell the news outside, right?"
"You, how do you know!" Li Zhi exhaled in surprise.
But the next second, he reacted!
Look at the emperor's clearly angry face, and then look at the person in front of you.
"You, you!" Li Zhi pointed at Nangong Baiye and kept beating his chest angrily. This woman clearly did this on purpose!
Deliberately setting yourself a language trap!
Thinking about it carefully, her attitude was very strange from the beginning.
So easily captured?
She also doesn't reveal her identity. If she tells him that her senior brother is His Royal Highness, he won't dare to arrest her even if he has a hundred courages!
As for her, not only did she not say anything, she also made him angry at every turn!
Nangong Baiye shrugged and raised her lips with a smile: "Master Magistrate, I am really worried about your IQ." As she said that, she looked at the guard next to her: "Take him down and behead him in public according to the emperor's order!
"
"Yes!" The guards looked at Nangong Baiye blankly, and couldn't help being impressed by the sharpness in her body that was as sharp as a blade, and they nodded subconsciously.
Li Zhi was completely paralyzed, his body turned into a lump of mud, and he allowed the guards to pull him down.
Nangong Baiye turned his head and looked at the emperor, his eyes as clear as water: "Your Majesty, four years ago, I was kicked out of my husband's family because of Nangong Rui'er. On the day of the concubine selection, in the main hall, she planned to frame me again, Your Majesty.
How smart she is, of course she has already seen clearly. At that time, the emperor did not punish her, so! I endured it! But! This time, I helped the emperor investigate the case, but she interfered with it and put me in jail."
Here, Nangong Baiye paused and said in an uneven tone: "If the emperor still refuses to punish her, then I have to do it myself. But..." Nangong Baiye smiled, like the black lotus in the dark: "
I will not care about the disappearance case in the slightest."
The emperor's fist hidden under his yellow sleeves clenched slightly: "Nangong Baiye! No one has ever dared to talk to me like this!"
"That's because no one is me." Compared to the emperor's anger, Nangong Baiye seemed much calmer.
The emperor always has to weigh the pros and cons when doing things. He has always pretended to be confused while trying to understand. He wants to suppress Nangong Yuan's arrogance more than anyone else. After all, no emperor likes to feel tied up.
But if the incident is not big enough and the evidence is sufficient.
He will never touch Nangong Yuan easily.
Not only will he not move easily, he will also coax him well, and he will be given a lot of rewards...
This was the back-and-forth between the emperors of the past dynasties and the famous and powerful ministers of the dynasty.
But this time, huh...
Snap!
The winter plum branches outside the window were overwhelmed and lowered their heads. The snow fell down and hit the snow with a crisp sound, turning into powder.
In the Buddhist hall of Nangong Garden, Mrs. Su didn't know why, but she always felt upset and agitated. She couldn't feel at ease even after half-paying the wooden fish in her hand, so she stood up to take the incense and said to Nangong Rui'er beside her: "
Rui'er, I'm so worried about my mother. Go to Hongyan's house and see if she's still there. Why do I always feel like something is going to happen?"
"Of course something is going to happen." Nangong Ruier smiled and raised her eyes to meet Mrs. Su's eyes: "But don't worry, mother, it's not us who are going to have trouble, but Nangong Baiye..."
