Zhenliang opened her mouth slightly and stared at Nangong Lie in shock. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the man's affection for her was fake or real.
No matter what he said, no matter what he did, she insisted that it was false. However, what she felt from the man's eyes, tone, and even actions was very much like the truth.
Zhenliang's reaction was as expected by Nangong Lie. Nangong Lie couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If it were another woman, I don't know how happy she would be at this moment. She would have thrown herself into his arms long ago.
But who makes him not want to say these words to other women? It's his own fault, and she can't be blamed.
"you do not believe?"
Zhenliang nodded truthfully, "Well, I don't believe it. Your Majesty, some jokes can be made, and some jokes cannot be made."
In one sentence, she regarded his seriousness as a joke.
In her eyes, as the king of a country, he will often be restrained by others, such as the queen mother, courtiers, and even people from other countries.
For example, in order to achieve a certain goal, for the stability of the country, he must accept a woman he doesn't like to appease people's hearts.
I'm afraid that many of the women in this harem are not what he really likes, but come in for political interests. This is still clear to Zhenliang. After all, after getting along with him these days, she can still feel that he is not a bastard.
A lustful man, with so many women in his harem, I'm afraid not all of them were brought in because he saw that he loved each one.
Nangong Lie didn't know what Zhenliang was thinking, but he understood her mood and said sincerely, "As long as you give me a chance, I will have the perseverance to make you believe in me and fall to your knees."
Zhenliang suddenly had the urge to laugh, because the things she faced seemed more and more ridiculous. The king of a country actually asked her, an ugly girl, to give him a chance. Isn't this a fantasy?
What reason did he have for being so humble and serious about her?
Zhenliang pursed her lips and asked, "According to the emperor's wishes, as long as I agree, do you plan to never touch the other women in the harem?"
Nangong Lie nodded affirmatively, "Of course."
Zhenliang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so aggrieved. I have always disliked the palace, not only because I don't have freedom, but also because I have to share it with countless women and rely on one man. I don't say this because I hope that the Emperor will favor me alone.
Rather, I feel that some facts are destined and cannot be changed. Assuming that they can be changed, what should those women do? Since the emperor has taken them in, he should be responsible for their lives and cannot let them be widowed together."
Nangong Lie disagreed and said, "I have my own way to be responsible for them, but I definitely don't have to rely on the method you think of."
Zhenliang said disdainfully, "How is the emperor prepared to take responsibility? Do you think they will be satisfied if they are given endless glory and wealth? If they really like the emperor, what they want most is to be an ordinary couple with the emperor."
"That's what they think, I don't care." Nangong Lie tightened his hands on Zhenliang's shoulders and said, "Give me a word, will you accept my efforts? Besides, you personally promised that you would
Try to fall in love with me."
Zhenliang sighed helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, why bother persisting in something that's impossible? I said trying it doesn't require the Emperor to mobilize so many troops."
"Damn woman," Nangong Lie said angrily, "I should treat you like this!"
Otherwise, how can we capture her?
At this point, Zhenliang's mood for admiring flowers had been completely ruined by Nangong Lie. Although the sky was bright and clear, she deliberately said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late. I should go back."
She really wanted to go back. She would rather close her eyes and sit in a dark room than face the increasingly strange man.
Nangong Lie stared angrily at Zhenliang's opening and closing mouth, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you dare to say it again?"
What's so difficult about this? Zhenliang didn't feel that he said anything inappropriate, so he repeated obediently, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, I—"
While her little mouth was opening and closing, Nangong Lie leaned forward suddenly, sealed her mouth fiercely, and after sucking hard, he opened his lips and tongue and said word by word, "From today on, I will do it every day."
I want to kiss you, and I want you to sleep with me every day. I don’t believe in this evil."
Come to kiss her every day? Want her to sleep with you every day?
Zhenliang felt that although this sounded shocking, it was absolutely impossible.
Facing Zhenliang's disbelieving eyes, Nangong Lie felt that it was useless to talk to this woman. It would be better to command her with actions. One day, she would get used to the tenderness he gave her and to him being by her side.
Can't live without him anymore.
So, Nangong Lie held Zhenliang's face and kissed her forcefully again.
The grass is green and the flowers are bright, the birds are chirping and the insects are flying, the sky is blue and the clouds are white. The two people who have not yet known each other are so close to each other that they cannot be separated for a while.
Nangong Lie kissed her deeply again and again, trying to make Zhenliang succumb to his forced kisses and become as addicted and intoxicated as him.
Zhenliang tried to resist with his own will again and again, but in the end, he lost the ability to think due to near-oxygen suffocation.
In the end, although she didn't respond, she relaxed her guard, withdrew her resistance, and couldn't help but be willing to bear it.
The more you endure it, the more wonderful it becomes.
In her fleeting thoughts, she couldn't help but fantasize about how sweet the kiss was. How great would it be if this man could really belong to her completely?
And what Nangong Lie was thinking was that this kiss was really so unforgettable that it ended. How great would it be if he could get some response from her?
The kiss, amidst the breeze and the fragrance of flowers, became deeper and deeper, and became more and more passionate. The two of them closed their eyes in unison and enjoyed it to the fullest, as if there was nothing else in the world except them, except for them kissing.
Nangong Lie did not come alone this time. At this moment, all the people who followed him were guarding the garden gate, preventing others from entering.
The secret guard who had been quietly protecting Zhenliang disappeared long ago because of the emperor's personal visit.
No one thought that in this pleasant scenery, in this warm moment, there would be a cold arrow shooting out from the flowers.
As the murderous intent approached, Nangong Lie suddenly opened his sharp eyes, and at a glance he saw the cold arrow shooting straight at the vital part of Zhenliang's back. If their bodies were inseparable, they might have the effect of killing two birds with one stone.
Time was short, and even though Nangong Lie had quickly hugged Zhenliang and sidestepped to avoid it, Leng's arrow still penetrated the flesh on his arm.
"Come here!" Nangong Lie shouted angrily, and all the eunuchs and guards guarding the garden gate rushed in.
At the same time, Nangong Lie pushed Zhenliang down to the ground and squatted down. Without a chance to explain, he quickly chased in the direction where Leng's arrow was shot.
Unfortunately, the cold arrow was still dangling on his arm.
Zhenliang knew that Nangong Lie wanted to catch the person who shot the cold arrow in person, and because he had not seen the person who shot the cold arrow with his own eyes, Zhenliang looked at Nangong Lie's retreating back, and his heart trembled and twitched.
She suddenly became very uneasy, fearing that there would be more people hiding in the grass with bows and arrows in their hands. If she was not careful, an arrow would hit a vital part of Nangong Lie's body.
Thinking of this, Zhenliang stood up nervously, regardless of his own safety, and shouted towards Nangong Lie, "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Nangong Lie heard the sound and looked back at her, but without any expression, he said to the people who were running over quickly, "Protect Concubine Liang."
When faced with a potential crisis, both people only thought of each other and ignored their own dangers.
This was something I did out of control, and no one thought there was anything wrong.
The guards and eunuchs who arrived surrounded Zhenliang for protection, leaving only a few to follow Nangong Lie's footsteps.
Zhenliang said to everyone, "Hurry up and help the emperor, I only need two people here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Lie had already picked up the lurking assassin from the grass, and then ordered the other guards behind him with a cold face, "Continue searching."
Then, Nangong Lie threw the assassin to a guard and said, "Take him back for interrogation."
However, before the guard could agree and take over, the assassin started talking. When Nangong Lie realized that he might be taking poison and killing himself, it was already too late to stop him.
After a careful search by the guards, no other assassins were caught in the garden or even near the garden.
Obviously, this has become a case that cannot be investigated, and it will take time to get the result.
Nangong Lie walked back to Zhenliang. When Zhenliang saw the blood flowing from the man's arm, his whole body shuddered suddenly and his lips turned white instantly.
And her heart was twitching violently, and she couldn't tell whether it was pain or fear.
Nangong Lie glanced at Zhenliang, whose expression changed drastically, pointed to the position where his long sword was hanging, and said, "You are so timid, are you scared now?"
Zhenliang bit her lip tightly and was silent for a long time. The cold arrow was connected to the flesh and blood, and blood was gurgling out. Can she not be frightened? At this moment, her whole body was weak and weak, and it was good that she didn't faint.
.
"Are you worried about me?"
Zhenliang gave Nangong Lie a hard look. If she wasn't worried about his injury, would she be trembling and weak?
However, Nangong Lie seemed to really enjoy this kind of moment that could scare Zhenliang, or enjoy the moment when she was nervous and worried about him, so he continued, "Why don't I just let you scare and worry enough?"
Zhenliang stared at Nangong Lie speechlessly. Before he understood the meaning of his words, Nangong Lie had already grabbed the cold arrow and pulled it out without hesitation.
When the cold arrow was pulled out, blood spurted out like a fountain.
Nangong Lie casually threw the pulled out Lengjian to the ground, but stared at Zhenliang with a pair of deep eyes. Even if he saw bits and pieces of worry in her eyes, he was happy and felt that the pain was worth it.
At the moment when the blood spurted out, Zhenliang felt that his heart stopped beating instantly and contracted into a ball, unable to expand or move.
The next moment, she had no room to think at all, but rushed towards Nangong Lie desperately, and tightly covered Nangong Lie's bleeding wound with her own hand.
The moment she covered it, she clearly felt warm blood continuously overflowing from her fingers. For a moment, a feeling of futility came over her heart, making her burst into tears.
