The more Nangong Lie's attitude toward him was outrageously indulgent, the more Zhenliang became suspicious. He wanted to use this to get her to forgive Chen Qian.
Zhenliang thought about it carefully and asked deliberately, "If I don't punish him, how will the emperor punish him?"
Nangong Lie said bluntly, "You have your punishment, and I have my punishment. Don't interfere with each other. You punish until you are satisfied, and I punish until I am satisfied."
This explanation sounded good, and Zhenliang said evilly, "If I took his life, wouldn't it mean that the emperor would not be satisfied?"
Nangong Lie twitched his lips, "If you want to take his life in front of you, can you let me punish you before taking his life? Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to let go of the hatred in my heart."
Nangong Lie said this sincerely, but Zhenliang didn't believe it at all.
"Your Majesty, I know that you are determined to protect him, so I won't really take his life. However, I feel that this person can avoid the death penalty and cannot escape the crime of living. I hope that when I punish him,
Your Majesty, don’t stop me.”
Nangong Lie's eyes were firm and he said, "It's his blessing that you can spare him from death. I will never stop you."
Zhenliang raised his eyebrows, "You have no joke?"
Nangong Lie nodded sincerely, "No joke."
Taking the initiative to tighten Nangong Lie's clothes, Zhenliang walked around the east room and finally found a very small dagger that looked very sharp.
Pulling the knife out of the scabbard, Zhenliang raised his hand towards Nangong Lie and said, "Your Majesty, can you borrow a knife?"
Nangong Lie's eyes paused, and then he generously said, "Send it to you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Nangong Lie looked at the knife in his hand with regret and sighed, "This is a good knife. Even if I am a layman, I can see that it must be valuable, but it must be used by me.
Abandon it, because it will soon become dirty."
By the time he finished speaking, Zhenliang had already slipped out of the Dongwu House alone.
Nangong Lie's heart trembled. Although he couldn't tell what Zhenliang wanted to do with the knife, he could conclude that it was definitely related to Chen Qian.
After a moment of silence for Chen Qian, Nangong Lie quickly followed Zhenliang's pace.
Back outside the south room, Zhenliang first found a basin of cold water, poured it on Chen Qian's pocket, and then waited for him to wake up.
Nangong Lie reminded him loudly, "I clicked on his sleeping point."
Zhenliang rolled his eyes angrily, "Your Majesty, can you help me change acupuncture points?"
Nangong Lie leaned over and untied Chen Qian's sleeping hole, but then tapped his moving hole.
When Chen Qian's eyes slowly opened and he saw Zhenliang's face clearly, Zhenliang put his foot on his thigh and said in a hateful voice, "Shameless man, I don't want your life today, I want you to become
Eunuch, just wait, I will do it myself."
After that, Zhenliang waved the small knife hidden behind his back in front of Chen Qian's eyes.
Chen Qian's face turned pale instantly, not because he was frozen by the cold water, but because he was frightened by the coldness.
The corners of Nangong Lie's mouth twitched violently, but he couldn't smile. He never thought that the knife she borrowed from him was not just scratching Chen Qian's body casually, but had a special purpose.
As a man, he felt that it would be better to let Chen Qian become a eunuch than to give him a happy and dignified death.
However, he has already let out his big words and can no longer stop any of Zhenliang's actions. Even if he feels that Chen Qianqian is excusable, he can only be a taciturn person. Who makes this kid anxious and not listen to what he has said?
Chen Qian knew that he had seriously offended this woman. Unless he told her that she was the man who made her want to die at night, she would definitely turn him into a eunuch. But now that the emperor was here, how could he
Telling secrets that shouldn’t be told for the sake of a man’s dignity?
The emperor had to say it himself. It was not his turn anyway. This was the loyalty he must have as a secret guard.
Therefore, Chen Qian pinned his last hope for help on the Emperor. Because the Emperor is the greatest, Zhenliang would not listen to what he said, and he did not dare not to listen. However, he obviously underestimated the importance of Zhenliang in the Emperor's mind.
of influence.
"Your Majesty..." Chen Qian shouted towards Nangong Lie without any humiliation, and a thousand words were reflected in his plaintive eyes.
He knew that what happened today was his fault and that he was too impulsive. However, it was not him who took the initiative to find Concubine Liang, but Concubine Liang who brought her to her door. He had long been addicted to her body. How could it be wrong?
What's the point? Unless he's not a man.
Nangong Lie looked back at Chen Qian with cold and terrifying eyes, his handsome face seemed to be filled with the words that he was the one to blame, that the crime was unforgivable, and that there was nothing he could do to save him.
At this embarrassing and humiliating moment, Chen Qian understood deeply in his heart that unless Zhenliang changed his mind, the only person who could save him was the emperor. He could only bet that at the critical moment, the emperor would remember his years of hard work and his future.
For the sake of being useful, I took action to stop it.
And if he really becomes a eunuch in the end, he will have no resentment towards the emperor. This is the price he should pay. However, he is not one of those eunuchs who can live for many years. He will end his life as soon as possible because of his hatred for the emperor.
, he is no longer useful to himself, and he no longer has the dignity to survive.
After thinking about it, Chen Qian's pale face gradually returned to normal. With no way to ask for help, he smiled seductively at Zhenliang and said with a bright smile, "If you die at the hands of a woman, you can be a ghost. I will take off your clothes later."
If you cut off my pants, you must remember to give me a few scratches to make the guy harden up so that you can cut it clean with one knife, so as not to leave any future troubles, right?"
The knife in Zhenliang's hand almost fell to the ground. She didn't expect that this man would be so arrogant when he was about to die. Did he think she didn't dare to let him become a eunuch?
Indeed, she didn't dare and didn't have the skills, but she could ask someone who was proficient to do it for her.
Zhenliang didn't understand, how could this man remain calm even though he knew he was about to become a eunuch? He had clearly shown fear just now? Could it be that she had seen it wrong?
As soon as Chen Qian finished speaking, Nangong Lie cast a threatening and warning look at him. Chen Qian deliberately turned away his eyes and looked directly at Zhenliang.
Zhenliang smiled coldly, trying his best to be more evil and happy than him, and said, "That's for sure, I will cut it clean for you, so that you don't look like a man and a eunuch."
Then, Zhenliang squatted down, grabbed Chen Qian's trousers with one hand, and held a knife in the other hand, imitating the gestures and movements he had just made to insult himself, and cut it open bit by bit.
From the outside to the inside, from bottom to top, it seemed as if by accident, Chen Qian's baby would be unfortunately killed before she really took action.
With a tear, Chen Qian's outermost trousers were torn. Chen Qian's handsome face turned pale again, and he looked at Nangong Lie. Did the emperor really not care about him?
Nangong Lie seemed to be retaliating for Chen Qian's avoidance of his gaze just now. Now he imitated his behavior and avoided his gaze, so that Chen Qian could not see through his thoughts at all.
