At this time, Eunuch Jiao's confidant, the young eunuch, came and asked to convey the emperor's will to Concubine Liang alone.
After everyone else left, the young eunuch handed over a letter written by Nangong Lie himself.
Zhenliang pursed her lips, and really didn't understand. Is there anything that the young eunuch couldn't say? The two of them had just met, and now they need to speak in words? Isn't it too arrogant?
Could it be that... Zhenliang couldn't help but imagine that the envelope contained an imperial decree allowing her to leave the palace?
Opening the envelope and taking out the letter paper, Zhenliang discovered that there were only six powerful words written on the large piece of paper - turn on the light and go to bed tonight.
Turn on the light to go to bed tonight?
Here we go again!
Ouch——
Zhenliang was dumbfounded and stared at those four words with a racing heart, as if he could see Nangong Lie's domineering and handsome face, as if he, who never smiled, was smiling proudly between the lines of these words.
laugh!
If it weren't for the little eunuch's presence, Zhenliang would have wanted to tear the letter into pieces! Then put it under her feet and stomp on it hard!
After sending the little eunuch away, Zhenliang only shook her head and said nothing when facing the questions from several girls. Her face was calm, neither happy nor angry. This made several girls anxious. They thought that she would be punished by the emperor no matter what kind of punishment she suffered.
She started asking long and short questions, and finally Yinye boldly speculated that nothing happened, and everyone calmed down.
Since Nangong Lie told her in such a secret way that he was going to bed at night, she thought that other people in the palace should not know about it, and it was best not to know.
After all, although this kind of thing is tragic for her, in the eyes of most people, it is a great favor. Therefore, she will suffer more jealousy and face potential dangers.
getting bigger.
Perhaps, when it got dark, Nangong Lie came and left quietly at all, and there was no need to greet him at all.
Since he deliberately concealed it, she would not be a mouthpiece to let more and more people know about this kind of thing, especially Yinye.
Because of this kind of sleeping with the light on, even if Yinye wanted to do it for her, he wouldn't be able to do it.
Moreover, facing this kind of helplessness, Zhenliang's inner panic and fear were no longer as severe as before, perhaps because the relationship between her and Nangong Lie had greatly improved.
In the remaining time before dark, Zhenliang was almost in a state of concentration. Whether he was eating, drinking, or reading a book and looking at the sky, what was swirling in his mind was the upcoming night, and all the various things he faced with Nangong Lie.
kind of scene.
Perhaps, relying on the improved relationship between the two, she could try to tell him that she was willing to get along with him, but she no longer wanted to sleep with him.
As for why she used to be able to sleep with her but now doesn't want to, she has plenty of reasons.
After dark, Zhenliang still didn't tell anyone about her going to bed, and there were no rumors in the palace that she would be sleeping with him tonight. Instead, Zhenliang heard from Ginye that the emperor did not turn over the cards tonight.
.
Zhenliang speculated that Nangong Lie deliberately let people spread such false rumors, did it really mean that by the time he arrived at Qiongyu Palace, everyone else had already fallen asleep?
Well, no matter what, before he came, Zhenliang felt that this was definitely a night full of melancholy.
Early on, except for the night watchers, Zhenliang allowed everyone else to go to rest, and she also pretended to go to bed early.
However, the dim lights in the palace never went out, and no one else knew that she was waiting for someone who didn't want to wait.
The waiting time seemed longer and longer, Zhenliang felt colder and colder, so he took off his outermost layer of clothes and hid in the bed. However, because he was worried, he couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tossed and turned.
I don't know how much time passed, but when Zhenliang felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, there was a sound outside the door.
Then, the door that had not been locked was pushed open by the visitor, and then gently closed and locked.
Zhenliang poked her head out of the quilt and glanced at the door. When she was sure that the person coming was Nangong Lie, she immediately sat up from the quilt, but the quilt was still wrapped from her neck down.
Nangong Lie walked to the bedside step by step, sat down naturally, looked at Zhenliang, whose eyes were a little hazy, and said, "There is good news and bad news, do you want to hear it?"
Zhenliang chuckled, "Why didn't the emperor ask this? Do you want to hear the good news or the bad news first?"
Nangong Lie looked at Zhenliang's eyes, which looked extremely soft against the backdrop of the night, and said, "Because I know that you definitely want to hear it."
"Your Majesty has a distinguished name." Zhenliang curled his lips and said, "Then let's tell you the bad news first?"
Nangong Lie shook his head with difficulty, "I can't tell which is good news and which is bad news, so I can only rely on you to judge."
Zhen Liang rolled his eyes, this man was just telling a few pieces of news, why did he put so much fuss on him?
Just after Zhenliang yawned, Nangong Lie said, "Zhenqi's matter has come to an end, but it is not the final result."
"I know that you suspect that the culprit behind the scenes is the Queen Mother. I can't stand on the Queen Mother's side until there is evidence. However, the Queen Mother did not do the thing. The Queen Mother suffered a sudden illness that day. It was not a coincidence, but the Queen Mother was... The person was persuaded to drink the irritating soup, so the disease relapsed. The person who gave the soup to the Queen Mother was Miss Wang."
"Beauty Wang?" Zhenliang had memories of only a handful of Nangong Lie's women, so he widened his eyes in confusion, "What is her motive?"
Nangong Lie was silent for a while and said, "She insisted that she did something wrong unintentionally."
If the recurrence of the Queen Mother's illness and Zhenqi's arrow were not on the same day, both Zhenliang and Nangong Lie might have believed Wang Meiren's words. However, the time when the two things happened was so coincidental that it was so coincidental that it was distorted. Therefore, Zhenliang suspected that Wang Meiren was not the real murderer, but that the real queen mother was controlling all this.
However, if two women in this palace are to sacrifice their lives for him at all costs, who has such ability?
Zhenliang was not sure, but Nangong Lie already had the object of suspicion in his heart, but he couldn't find any evidence.
"How does the emperor plan to punish Beauty Wang? Torture her severely?"
Nangong Lie shook his head, "I have been tortured, but she would rather die than be punished. I can only give her death and kill her whole family as a warning to others."
Zhenliang deliberately made a frightened expression and said, "Maybe she really did it unintentionally. Does the emperor's behavior count as indiscriminate killing of innocent people?"
Nangong Lie said confidently, "I still have the ability to judge whether a person is lying."
Moreover, even if she really made an unintentional mistake, even if she was willing to reveal who was behind the scenes and who made her almost kill her mother, even if he didn't punish her severely afterwards, her mother would torture her until life was worse than death. Therefore, it would be better He came to give her a good time.
And her family will be sent to a distant country to live with a different identity. They will never be able to come back, let alone contact the outside world.
Zhenliang stared at Nangong Lie's deep phoenix eyes and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, do you feel bad for losing two beauties in one day?"
Nangong Lie decisively objected, "How can you feel sorry for someone who never takes it seriously?"
Zhenliang once again sighed in his heart that this man was ruthless and ruthless. Nangong Lie suddenly leaned close to her, stared into her eyes, and asked word by word, "Do you care about anyone in your heart?"
