The man did not stand up, but tilted his head slightly, then raised his arms to catch the bundle firmly.
Really good at it.
Zhenliang admired in her heart and grinned, but before her bright smile could be fully displayed, she watched in shock as the man threw the baggage, which was the hard work of the five of them, into the fire.
In an instant, the flames drowned the existence of the baggage, and the fire became strong.
The flames shot higher and higher, completely blocking the man's upright figure. Zhenliang stared at the raging fire in stunned silence, wondering why Nangong Yu would make such a hurtful joke to her? Although she didn't tell him in advance that there was something in the bag.
What, but, she had already yelled and told him that it contained a gift. Since it was a gift, how could he treat it like this?
How could this kind of disrespectful behavior towards people and gifts come from Nangong Yu? It is really unbelievable.
When the fire gradually dimmed, Zhenliang finally understood the reason. It wasn't that Nangong Yu didn't cherish the gift she gave her, or that he didn't respect her as a person, but that the man standing behind the fire was actually Nangong Lie!
Under the reflection of the firelight, the handsome face that seemed to have been sculpted by miraculous craftsmanship should have a warm color, but it was abnormally cold and terrifying, as if as long as he took one step closer to the fire, the flames of the fire would
It was extinguished due to the sudden cold force.
Zhenliang only regretted that she had thrown the baggage away without seeing the man's face clearly, and she regretted it at this moment.
Damn it, damn it, she deserves it, Nangong Lie deserves it even more.
If Nangong Lie only caught the baggage instead of throwing it into the fire, when Zhenliang saw him now, she would definitely think of the hickeys he had covered on her unconscious body that night, and she would feel ashamed and annoyed.
However, at this moment, the anger caused by the destruction of the suit has taken over, so there is no shame at all.
Rushing to Nangong Lie in an angry manner, Zhenliang asked sternly, "Why are you here? Why did you burn my baggage? Tell me!"
She was really angry, so she deliberately omitted the honorific and modest words, because she felt that this man did not deserve her respect at all, and there was no need to be polite and polite to him.
Nangong Lie snorted coldly with cold eyes, as if throwing her baggage into the fire was already an act of praise for her, and he didn't bother to answer her even a few words.
While Zhenliang was filled with anger, she still couldn't figure out how Nangong Yu, who was sitting quietly, could become Nangong Lie.
Maybe it just happened that both of them were there.
Without doubting that the information he got from the young eunuch was fraudulent, Zhenliang began to turn a blind eye to Nangong Lie and strode towards the Golden Wing Lake to search for him.
She wants to find Nangong Yu and tell him how hateful and evil his imperial brother is! She wants to find someone who can understand her and cry out for the burned suit together!
Of course, she would also promise Nangong Yu that she would make him a new one until he received it.
When Nangong Lie saw her leaving him with great expectation to look for other men, his handsome face couldn't help but become more gloomy, but he couldn't help but follow her footsteps.
Feeling the heavy footsteps approaching behind him, Zhenliang quickened his pace without looking back. He didn't understand why Nangong Lie still followed her. It was really annoying.
One of the two ran and the other followed, one couldn't find the person he was looking for, the other couldn't say what he wanted to say, neither could see the other's face, they just stayed angry with each other.
There are two waves of people hiding by the Golden Wing Lake, one is Nangong Lie's people, and the other is Yinye.
Nangong Lie's secret guards couldn't accept it when they saw the emperor silently following Concubine Liang with a sullen expression on his face. Is this their noble and arrogant emperor?
Yinye left or stayed. Like Zhenliang, he had no idea that there was no third prince at the Golden Wing Lake, but only the emperor.
The happiest thing about Golden Wings at the lake is how wonderful it is to have fun everywhere. It seems to especially like running around the lake, but no one knows that there is another reason for its happiness.
The two people, one behind the other, had been in a stalemate for who knows how long. Nangong Liesen's cold voice came to Zhenliang's back, "You can't see him. He has been banned for three months."
This tone has a naturalness beyond schadenfreude.
Zhenliang had walked most of the Golden Wing Lake. Of course he knew that Nangong Yu was not here at all, or had already left, but he never thought that he would be grounded.
Out of concern for Nangong Yu, Zhenliang immediately asked angrily on his behalf, "Your Majesty, what mistake did the third prince make that you want to ground him for three months?"
Nangong Lie looked at Zhenliang with contempt, and said coldly, "Didn't you make him like this?"
"Did I harm him?" Zhenliang was stunned, and then he understood that it must be Nangong Yu who took her out of the palace to play without permission, and Nangong Lie punished him for this.
"Your Majesty, my concubine is the culprit for leaving the palace. The Third Prince was just fooled by my concubine. You shouldn't punish him like this."
Zhenliang still wanted to continue to plead for Nangong Yu, but the more she did so, the angrier Nangong Lie became, "Shut up, don't treat me like a fool."
This was a cold-hearted man. Zhenliang knew that he was angry at the moment, so it was useless no matter how much she begged for mercy, just to stop talking.
At the same time, she also gradually understood that the news that Nangong Yu was meditating by the Golden Wing Lake was completely false, and wasn't the person who spread this false news the same evil man in front of her?
Zhenliang is really puzzled. When Nangong Lie released such false news, could he be sure that she would definitely come to see Nangong Yu?
If the suit was not ready, she would not come to see Nangong Yu. Could it be said that the four girls accidentally leaked the news? Therefore, Nangong Lie directed this scene with the purpose of turning the fruits of their hard work into
ash?
Nangong Lie saw that Zhenliang was silent and thought she was thinking about Nangong Yu, so he couldn't help but speak out.
"Yu Chi Zhenliang, listen, from today on, you are not allowed to make things for other men in my palace, otherwise, it will not be as simple as burning it down next time."
The man's threatening words were like a knife, confirming Zhenliang's guess. It seemed that this man not only controlled her every move in Qiongyu Palace, but also loved face beyond her imagination. He was really hateful.
Watching the man slowly leaving, Zhenliang shouted, "What am I going to do? It's best for the emperor to set a fire and burn down this palace!"
If Nangong Lie hadn't gone too far by burning her suit, she would have given him the respect he deserved. However, his unreasonable troubles could only make her lose her mind more and more.
If he doesn't like her making things for other men, he can tell her directly that there is no need to burn the baggage, she can keep it as a souvenir.
She would rather have her suit stolen than burned by him, because if it is stolen, she can at least have a memory of it, but after it is burned, she will never recover.
"Just try!" A cold voice came from the front, seemingly unafraid of her challenge.
"Nangong Lie, return my burden! Return my burden!" Zhenliang stomped her feet again, but the man's cold and arrogant figure walked further and further away, faster and faster, and he did not feel sorry or guilty towards her at all.
Zhenliang stood there, turned around and looked at the pile of flames that were almost extinguished, gritted her teeth and said to herself secretly, this matter will never go away like this! She wants to take revenge and make him even more angry and angry than herself at the moment!
When Zhenliang returned to Qiongyu Palace indignantly accompanied by Yinye, he already had a clear idea in mind.
She asked the girls to prepare some colorful cotton threads, and then asked Little Shadow and the eunuchs to find thin bamboo threads, cut them into sections, sharpen one end and round the whole body, and then she dismissed everyone.
He locked himself in the palace and began to weave cotton threads without sleep or food.
It wasn't until a pair of lovely cotton gloves came out of her hands that the gold and silver leaves who came in to deliver the meal understood what she was knitting.
Yinye took the gloves that Zhenliang had knitted and asked, "Mom, can I wear them?"
Zhenliang smiled and said, "Yes, but I can't give it to you."
Silver Leaf was not greedy, and she said it felt warm after wearing it. Gold Leaf was jealous and asked to wear it, and she said it looked nice and warm.
Immediately afterwards, Jinye and Yinye asked a lot of questions about the gloves, such as the weaving method and the patterns. Of course, what they wanted to know most was who the queen was knitting the gloves for.
Judging from the size and color of the gloves, Jinye said, "My Lady, are these knitted for the Emperor?"
Zhenliang shook his head, "He was dreaming."
Jin Ye's eyes widened in surprise, and Yin Ye quickly asked, "Your Majesty, I guess you are knitting it for the Third Prince?"
Zhenliang still shook his head, "No."
"Then who has this blessing?" the two girls said in unison.
"I guarantee you won't be able to guess it even after three days and three nights." Zhenliang smiled mysteriously, "Soon, you will know it by then."
The two girls looked at each other, becoming more and more curious about who the gloves were going to be given to, but Zhenliang refused to say anything.
"Wait patiently, there will be a good show to watch." Zhenliang happily put down the bamboo silk and cotton thread, and asked the two of them while eating, "Of course these gloves were knitted to give away, but you know the purpose of giving them away is
What?"
The two girls shook their heads together, "My dear, please tell us quickly."
Zhenliang lazily threw out two words, "revenge."
"Retaliation? Who should I retaliate against?"
"The secret must not be revealed."
After Zhenliang had eaten, she sacrificed her lunch break to continue knitting a second pair of gloves. Seeing Zhenliang being so busy, Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf also understood the tricks of knitting. They were afraid that she would hurt her body too hard, so they suggested,
"Empress, shall we help you? If we call on the iron leaves and copper leaves, we can make as many pairs as you want and we can make them quickly."
"I don't need anyone's help this time. I'll do it all by myself." Zhenliang shook his head and flatly refused, saying, "This gift must be given sincerely, and the key to sincerity is to make it with your own hands."
Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf looked at each other in confusion again. They really couldn't understand what the connection between knitting such beautiful gloves and revenge was.
