Under Nangong Lie's violent kiss like a storm, Zhenliang's struggling body gradually softened, and his frantic heart quietly calmed down.
A sweet kiss can always cleanse a person's soul and make them forget all their worries.
After realizing that Zhenliang was submissive, Nangong Lie's kiss became gentle and affectionate, nourishing Zhenliang's heart perfectly, making her unable to lose her temper for a while.
When their lips and tongues were forcibly separated by numbness, Nangong Lie's thin lips opened lightly on Zhenliang's chin, "Remember, whether you are ugly or not has nothing to do with whether I want you or not."
This time, even though Zhenliang still felt disdainful, her numb lips did not move at all. Although Nangong Lie's words were not reassuring, they easily stopped her from arguing with him again.
In fact, she wanted to believe that, at least now, Nangong Lie did not dislike her for being ugly. Otherwise, he would not have kissed her for so long and so deeply...
What seemed disgusting to her was full of taste to him. If he was pretending, there was really no need or reason.
Then, Nangong Lie picked up Zhenliang and strode towards the palace. When the guards not far away saw this, they all bowed their heads obediently under Nangong Lie's sharp eyes. No one saw that Zhenliang had already
A face completely covered in brown spots.
Zhenliang caught a glimpse of this phenomenon, pursed her lips and said, "If I never wear a mask from now on and show myself like this, will the emperor feel embarrassed?"
In fact, she knew that if Nangong Lie felt that she was embarrassed, he would not let her live in Jiulong Palace. It was just because she cared more and more about him and felt more and more inferior in front of him that she became sensitive.
Nangong Lie paused, looked at the guards casually, and said, "You can try it and see how humiliating I can be."
Although these words were said lightly, Nangong Lie's meaning was very obvious - no matter what Zhenliang did, he would not feel embarrassed.
After Nangong Lie took Zhenliang back to the palace, he added to the previous topic, "I don't care whether you want to show your true face in front of everyone. However, when one day your face returns to normal, I don't want you to show your true face."
Show others."
Zhenliang was startled. She understood what Nangong Lie meant when he said her face returned to normal, but she didn't understand why he didn't want her to show her true face when her face was no longer ugly.
"Why?" Zhenliang uttered three words in a low voice.
"I heard that your appearance is extremely beautiful, and you can be called the most beautiful woman in the capital. If you are really that beautiful, I can keep it to myself. Why bother showing it to other men and causing trouble in your heart?"
Nangong Lie's words came naturally, as if one day she would regain her beautiful appearance, and he would fulfill what he said.
Zhenliang's face burned slightly. This man's domineering words were obviously unreasonable to her, but she felt happy when she heard them.
If he has no affection for her, how can he think about the future? How can he think too much about things that may not happen yet?
But, then again, does the fact that he is looking forward to the future mean that in his heart, he still hopes that her face will become beautiful? In other words, how much patience does he have to put in to tolerate her current condition?
ugly?
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Zhenliang's eyes.
This time, because she was in the palace where no one else would find her, she didn't need to hold back. She simply ignored Nangong Lie's presence and cried bitterly.
Nangong Lie wiped her tears and asked puzzledly, "It seems I didn't say anything wrong?"
Zhenliang choked and raised her head, stared at him aggrievedly and said, "Yes, you didn't count anything wrong, but all your thoughts are written on your face."
Nangong Lie frowned, "What thoughts are written on my face, can you help me read it out and listen to it?"
Zhenliang snorted coldly and said, "Look at yourself in the mirror."
Nangong Lie shook his head, "Because I am afraid that you will be sad, especially if you have random thoughts, there is no mirror in the Nine Dragons Hall."
It turns out that the mirror in Jiulong Palace really disappeared because of her.
Feeling the man's good intentions for her, Zhenliang felt complicated and cried even harder.
At this moment, Zhenliang's inferiority complex began to attack willfully, and she could not control it with her reason.
While raising his fists and gently beating Nangong Lie's chest, Zhenliang continued to cry bitterly, "It's written all over your face, in fact, this woman is very ugly, so ugly that I want to vomit!"
Nangong Lie said helplessly, "You are wronging me."
"Just admit it and pretend you're not sick or tired?"
"..."
"Do you dare to say that you are not a normal man?"
"..."
"Yes, you are a normal man. Normal men will like beautiful women. But why do you like an ugly woman?"
Nangong Lie knew the pain in Zhenliang's heart, and the tears that fell down one after another seemed to flow to his heart in the end, making him fully feel the saltiness and pain in it.
And the harder she cried, the heavier he felt.
He secretly vowed to help her find the source of her illness and cure it, so that she could become more confident. Otherwise, how could she be truly happy?
When Zhenliang spoke more and more incoherently, and even repeated what he had said over and over again, Nangong Lie couldn't listen anymore and growled, "Fool, I like you, I don't need a reason."
Before Zhenliang could react, he used an old and tried-and-tested trick - kissing her chattering little mouth, making her become obedient and obedient under his hot kiss.
After that day, everything seemed to be back to how it was before. Zhenliang still lived in Jiulong Palace, Nangong Lie did not play the other concubines' cards, and Jin Ye and the other four girls would still appear at Jiulong Palace on time to accompany Zhenliang.
The only difference is that there are mirrors in Jiulong Hall again.
However, Zhenliang would hardly take off her mask in front of the mirror. Her current ugly face has been deeply remembered in her mind, and she does not need to stimulate herself repeatedly.
Sometimes, she even believed that one day, Nangong Lie would hire a real miracle doctor to completely cure her ugliness.
At that time, she no longer needs to feel inferior or cowardly. No matter what she likes or wants, she just needs to be brave enough to pursue it.
Nangong Lie never left the palace again. No matter how busy he was with his official duties, he would definitely return to Qiongyu Palace and accompany her to sleep when Zhenliang was used to going to bed.
Ever since Zhenliang discovered that his face was completely covered with brown spots, his conversation pattern with Nangong Lie also changed dramatically.
She was like a stove, constantly spraying sparks towards Nangong Lie, and Nangong Lie was like a pool of clear water, constantly extinguishing the sparks she sprayed out.
For example, when Nangong Lie saw her, he said, "You seem to be in a good mood today?"
Zhenliang would give him a look and say, "That's because I don't have to see you all day long, so I'm in a good mood."
Nangong Lie held her in his arms and said, "As soon as you see me, your mood worsens?"
Zhenliang hit his chest hard with her head and said, "Of course."
"I can't make myself disappear in front of you, but I have many ways to prevent you from having time to think." After saying this, Nangong Lie sealed Zhenliang's mouth...
For another example, when Nangong Lie and Zhen Liang had dinner together, the table was filled with Zhen Liang’s favorite dishes.
Zhenliang looked at the dishes that Yuchi Zhenliang liked to eat and said, "Your Majesty, just like people's liking for people will change, people's taste for dishes will also change. I used to like these dishes, but
I don’t like what I like now at all, and I will definitely not like what I like now in the future.”
Nangong Lie was leisurely eating his favorite dishes and said slowly, "I don't know what other people will do. I only know that my taste in people and dishes will never change again in this life."
Zhenliang snorted lightly and said disdainfully, "This life? The emperor's life is still very long. Unless the coffin is finalized, how can we predict what will not happen in the future?"
Nangong Lie retorted, "Can't you predict the future?"
Zhenliang said, "That's because I have the ability to predict the future."
Nangong Lie immediately picked up, "I have one too."
"You——" Do you want to be shameless?
"..." I don't need to be shy when it comes to you.
The calmer the day, the more dangerous and unknown things lurk. One night during dinner, when Zhenliang and Nangong Lie were picking up their chopsticks, Eunuch Jiao suddenly appeared. He looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
Zhenliang knew that Eunuch Jiao was inconvenient to speak because of his presence, so he stood up and said, "I, my concubine, please step aside."
Nangong Lie stood up, pushed her down on the chair and said, "No need to avoid it."
Then, Nangong Lie said to Mr. Jiao, "Speak directly when you have something to say. When did you become hesitant?"
Eunuch Jiao felt aggrieved and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xuan's birthday is today, and she invites you to come over for dinner."
Nangong Lie glared at Eunuch Jiao with dissatisfaction, "You can help me avoid this kind of thing, why bother me?"
Eunuch Jiao said aggrievedly, "Old slave pushed me, but...but..."
Nangong Lie said impatiently, "But what?"
Eunuch Jiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Concubine Xuan said that the emperor even took a look at her or drank a glass of birthday wine. If she doesn't see the emperor today, today's birthday will be her death day."
"
With a "pop" sound, Nangong Lie slapped his chopsticks on the table, his handsome face was filled with anger and he said, "Dare you threaten me? Let her go as she pleases."
Eunuch Jiao had actually expected this result, but he was responsible for Concubine Xuan's life, so he came to take the risk and asked. Now that he had received a clear answer from the emperor, he could only think of ways to appease Concubine Xuan, don't let her
She really did something stupid.
It took a long time for Nangong Lie's sullen expression to improve. Seeing that Zhenliang didn't move his chopsticks for a long time, he looked at her and said, "Do you have something to say?"
Zhenliang nodded and said sincerely, "As the saying goes, one night of husband and one hundred nights of kindness, the emperor once favored Concubine Xuan, and Concubine Xuan lost her child a few days ago. Now she has recovered from a serious illness, and it coincides with her birthday. It is her
During the sensitive and fragile period, the emperor, both emotionally and rationally, should go to her place to see and talk to comfort her, lest she really does something stupid and regret it later."
