The emperor's footsteps gradually faded away in everyone's ears until they could no longer be heard.
The palace was quiet, and there were no sounds of conversations, accusations, curses or even fights that they had expected. There were not even noisy and loud sounds such as cups and plates falling to the ground, tables and chairs overturning, etc.
The quieter the palace became, the more terrified the servants standing outside became. At first they were worried about Concubine Liang's safety, but gradually they became inexplicably worried about the safety of the emperor, as if there was a man with a bloody mouth living inside.
The devil, whoever enters, will devour him without making a sound. In their eyes, does it mean that Concubine Liang and Yinye have already encountered misfortune, and now it is the emperor's turn?
After an unknown amount of time, Nangong Lie finally walked out slowly and intact. His expression did not change much when he followed in. Only Eunuch Jiao could see that the emperor's face was more than a hundred times darker than before he entered.
Under the horrified expressions of the slaves, Nangong Lie silently closed the door and said in a cold voice, "Just as Concubine Liang told me, no one can go in and disturb me."
Seeing the emperor holding back his outburst of anger and leaving, with his tall and lonely figure submerged in the darkening night, all the slaves took a deep breath and stared straight at the closed door of the palace. No one could figure out what was going on.
Will it end so strangely?
The emperor is obviously angry with Concubine He, and is very angry and angry, but why is the emperor's reaction like this? It makes people feel that Concubine Liang has been strangled to death by the emperor in the palace?
God, who can explain it to them? Otherwise they will have sleepless nights!
The sky is full of fire, trees and silver flowers, and brothers and sisters are dancing gracefully.
The night view of the Pangtuo River, illuminated by colored lights, was incredibly beautiful. Zhenliang and Nangong Yu sat quietly on a bench by the river, looking at the light of the colored lights that became increasingly hazy as they got further away, as if their hearts were following them.
Indulging in the gentleness of the land, I couldn't see through it and couldn't see enough. Unknowingly, the night was already very deep.
After all, Zhenliang is Nangong Lie's concubine. Although she came out this time extremely secretly, there is no guarantee that one day the news will leak out. In order to avoid suspicion, Nangong Yu was not suitable for her to live in Prince Yu's Mansion, so he had to rent the Neon Inn by the Pangtuo River.
.
After sending Zhenliang to the Neon Inn, Nangong Yu told his subordinates to protect him, and then returned to the Three Princes' Mansion, which was not far from the Pangtuo River.
Zhenliang had been lying on the bed for a long time, but perhaps the light from the Pangtuo River was faintly projected from the window, causing the guest room to not be completely dark. Therefore, she was not used to it, so she could not sleep well no matter what.
Finally feeling sleepy and feeling like he was about to fall into an abyss of sleep, Zhenliang vaguely heard the sound of swords nearby.
Zhenliang wanted to get up and go out to see what was going on, but when she propped up her elbows, her heart suddenly thumped. She found that she was completely weak! The abundant energy she had before going to bed was completely drained away from her at some point.
.
Surprised, Zhenliang sniffed and smelled a strange aroma wafting in the air, thinking someone had set off smoke or something?
After several screams outside, the sound of swords finally stopped, followed by the sound of rapid footsteps approaching. Zhenliang heard one of Nangong Yu's subordinates ask loudly, "Master, are you okay?"
Of course Nangong Yu's guards knew her identity, but outside the palace, they all called her Young Master according to Nangong Yu's request.
Thinking that the assassin outside had been taken down by the guards, Zhenliang's initial panic slowly dissipated, and when she was about to respond and tell the guards that she seemed to be in a cloud of smoke, a fat hand suddenly appeared in front of her eyes and covered her mouth.
Immediately afterwards, a voice that closely imitated her voice said to the guards outside the door, "It's okay, please step back."
The guard outside did not doubt that something was wrong and said, "All the assassins have been captured. Please rest peacefully, Master."
The voice that imitated her said very cooperatively, "Well, I'm sorry to bother you."
You can't blame the guards for not being able to distinguish the authenticity of the voice. After all, the voice was spread over such a long distance, even through the door, and only Zhenliang could clearly hear that the fake voice was just made by a man holding his nose.
The footsteps of the guards left, and Zhenliang gradually saw that the man covering his mouth was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, just like his hands, with a fat head and big ears, oily skin, and one black and yellow tooth.
The bamboo stick smiled maliciously at her.
Even though Zhenliang was carrying all kinds of medicinal powders given to her by Ju Chenguang, at this moment she only had the strength to speak and even the strength to bend her fingers.
"Who are you?" Zhenliang was panicking in his heart, but he did not focus the panic into his eyes. Instead, he glared at the middle-aged man as if he was facing danger.
While chewing the bamboo stick, the middle-aged man withdrew his hand to touch his face and said with a smile, "My surname is Caihua, and I am a silver thief. Although I look rude, I am quite gentle to women. Today is my day.
During my days of recuperation, I didn’t expect that someone would take the initiative to give me money and colorful flowers. Naturally, I had no reason to refuse, so I let the 444th woman in the world fall in love with my gentleness.”
At first, Zhenliang thought that she was just unlucky to meet the Aika Silver Thief, but then she realized that someone had paid him to destroy her. Who could it be?
The first thing that Zhenliang thought of was the Queen Mother, but she vaguely felt that it was not the case. No matter how much the Queen Mother hated her, she would not resort to such despicable methods. Moreover, the relationship between the Queen Mother and her two sons had just deteriorated. At this juncture,
It won't add another scar.
If not the Queen Mother, who else could it be? She seems to have no grudges against anyone else, nor has she ever offended anyone else.
Of course, she also knows that in this world, it doesn't mean that if she doesn't hate anyone, others will not take the initiative to murder her. For example, she seems to be favored in the palace now, don't those concubines hate her?
Seeing the man reaching out to lift the quilt covering her, Zhenliang hurriedly said sharply, "Wait! Before you do anything, why don't you take off my mask and take a look before deciding whether to continue Caihua?"
The man was not attracted by her at all, and said with a bad smile, "Girl, actually, to a man, it doesn't matter what his face looks like. What's important is that he has a good figure. That's what kills a man the most."
This tone was exactly the same as that of Lao Lin who wanted to sell her into a house in Aixian County. They both emphasized the power of body to attract men. However, Lao Lin had no wrong thoughts about her and just wanted to make money from her. And this Caihua was thief.
Li Liuyin obviously wanted to bully her directly.
If she had a choice, she would rather be controlled and hijacked by people like Lao Lin.
The man roughly opened the quilt covering Zhenliang, and when he found that she was fully dressed, his eyes were slightly disappointed.
But soon, the man adjusted his disappointed expression. With a smile, he cast his eyes on her rising and falling chest and said, "I see that this girl's figure is already very good even if she is wearing clothes. She will definitely make her look better if she takes it off later."
My interest was greatly increased, and I even couldn’t stop.”
