Her Majesty, please kill me

Chapter 17

"Leading the snake out of the hole?" The noble and elegant empress stared at him with a half-smile:

"Fortunately, you can also take credit. At that time, I killed you, so what should you do?"

Gu Nan's expression did not change, and he said calmly:

"It doesn't matter if you die, if you find the tiles on your body, your majesty will understand the good intentions of the minister."

Xie Yanwan stared into his eyes, "Do you have a secret from me?"

The female officer and the boa-robed eunuch held their breaths, this matter was indeed beyond their cognition.

Gu Nantu what?

It can be inferred from the results that he has made great contributions, second only to Director Jiang.

But the process is weird, he would rather die than keep silent, he can be called a saint of a generation!
"Who doesn't have a little secret? As long as it doesn't endanger the country, Your Majesty won't ask the bottom line, right?"

Gu Nan didn't deny it, but looked calm.

A superior with both power and force like a tyrant has always only focused on results, as long as it is beneficial to her.

The empress was noncommittal, her tone was cold: "Zhen will always observe you."

Speaking of ordering the eunuch in the boa robe, "Let the scorpion come over."

For a quarter of an hour, Chen Luo stood respectfully in the lobby, holding a note and a tile in his hand.

"Deputy Director Chen, you should be innocent in a humble position." Gu Nan's tone was calm, without any ambiguity.

Chen Luo expressionless: "Of course."

Whether it was a coincidence or premeditated, in short, this credit and the alibi are enough to remove the suspicion.

"There is a ghost in our company." Gu Nan said meaningfully, and then his eyes turned to the tyrant who was lingering in the fragrance.

"A thorough investigation!" Xie Yan Wanyu's cheeks were cold, implying a threat.

"Follow the Holy Order!" Chen Luo cupped his hands respectfully, and immediately retreated, his face covered with lingering gloom.

Director Jiang was ordered to go to the state of Wei. As soon as she left, such a shocking murder occurred in the company. Doesn't it highlight his incompetence as the deputy director?
If the murderer is not solved and the murderer is not found, it will be difficult to keep the official hat on his head.

"You go home and rest for one night, and the next day the officer will return to his post to help solve the case."

Xie Yanwan gave him a cold look, and walked away with small steps.

"Your Majesty, please resign and go back to seclusion."

A sincere voice sounded behind him.

The Empress suddenly turned around and looked at him with a cold face.

"Please approve, Your Majesty." Gu Nan did not change his face, and his attitude was very decisive.

Who told you, a tyrant, not to kill me, no matter how you die, you have to find ways to spare me.

Gu Nan's heart was ashamed, and he was about to change his strategy.

Chu State, it doesn't matter if you don't wait.

His flaws are undoubtedly obvious, he is too eager for quick success, too eager to take shortcuts, trying to get to his stomach in one step.

For example, this time, he almost hurt his sister-in-law, and almost ruined himself.

He often dances on the tip of the knife and always sees blood, but he still decides to leave the sharp knife of the tyrant temporarily.

"Why, have you been wronged?" The empress stared at him without blinking.

"The minister is too simple, and the officialdom is too sinister, it's hard to tolerate me, and it's hard for me to blend in."

Gu Nan's voice was calm, and his eyes showed no emotional fluctuations.

The heroes of Shenzhou are competing for the throne, and the nine countries are fighting for hegemony. Such a wonderful chessboard has great potential, so why stick to Chu.

The tyrant can't break through this road, and the consequences of hitting blindly are unpredictable. It's better to find a few small roads, and then turn back and hit them when they are strong and hard.

"You told me that you are innocent?" Xie Yanwan's eyes darkened, and he sternly refused:

"I have high hopes for you. You have repeatedly proved your loyalty and patriotism with your actions. How can I waste talents."

Gu Nan really [loves and hates] the tyrant.

Killing and not killing, but every time there is a heart of compassion, and it also makes him very moved...

"The humble official is just a mysterious-level gnat. First, he has no access to the secrets of purgatory; second, he has nothing to do with important officials in the court; third, he is not a noble descendant, and his ancestors have no titles."

Gu Nan calmly explained that, to put it bluntly, his departure would not have any impact on Chu State.

But you must resign from your position first, otherwise it will be treason to flee overnight.

"I won't approve!" Xie Yanwan's eyes were cold.

The female officials stared at Gu Nan. With their keen insight, this must be a familiar method of high-ranking officials. First, they look like they are unlovable, and then use His Majesty's love of talents to achieve the goal of promotion.

But they were wrong.

Gu Nan really threw the bronze token to the boa-robed eunuch, and immediately asked to retreat:

"Grassman farewell!"

A dangerous gleam flashed across the female emperor's phoenix eyes, and she stared coldly at the departing figure.

Under the night, Gu Nan headed towards Xuanrenfang, his sister-in-law must be terrified in Aunt Yang's mansion.

After failing in a row, he no longer wants to try. This time he got away with some kind of luck, what should he do next time?
In fact, there is an easier way, which is to directly showdown with the tyrant——

"Your Majesty, don't be soft-hearted and kill me quickly. I will be resurrected after I die, and I will be your right-hand man in the future."

But the trust between the two parties obviously cannot reach this level, and this is his greatest reliance, how can he easily show it to others?
……

Cheng Guogong's mansion, Yang Yun hugged Xiao Mei with red and swollen eyes, and comforted her in a low voice:
"Don't cry, you leave the Gu family quickly, and you won't be involved in this case."

Tears welled up in Xiao Mei's apricot eyes, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I have to save Xiao Nan if I go bankrupt, sister help me."

"Can't help!" Yang Yun reprimanded with a face full of hatred:

"It's just stupid. You have worked so hard for the Gu family all these years, and you have a clear conscience. Who dares to blame you?"

"I have raised Xiao Nan for ten years..." Xiao Meihong stared, heartbroken.

Yang Yun was silent, this is when she was raising her son, she raised her since she was a child, and she put too much affection into her.

"Ma'am, Ma'am, Mr. Gu is here!" A sharp-toothed maid screamed.

Xiao Meiteng got up and ran out of the hall at a fast speed, almost tripping over the threshold.

"Sister-in-law." The white-robed man in the corridor was safe and sound, looking at her with a smile.

"Xiao Nan." Xiao Mei had a look of disbelief, and immediately beat him like crazy, "Nie Zhan, you troublesome bastard!!"

The glamorous sister-in-law who used to have exquisite makeup and beaded rings is now haggard and tired, her face is swollen, and there are wet tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Stop beating..." Gu Nan felt guilty, but his sister-in-law was always worried about his own death.

"Xiao Nan, have you really been released?" The plump lady came out, her eyes widening, feeling incredible.

"Prison escape is just a situation set up by Your Majesty and I. As for the sudden death of the jailer in Ding Prison, it has nothing to do with me." Gu Nan said perfunctorily, and pulled out the brocade handkerchief that his sister-in-law was clutching, trying to help her wipe away her tears.

"Get out..." Xiao Mei stared at him, and said sharply, "You are a heartless bastard, you will scare me!"

"Xiao Nan, Auntie tried her best to mediate with many parties, but it is difficult to get involved in this case."

Yang Yun caught the word "Your Majesty" and quickly showed that she never stood by.

"Thank you, Aunt Yang." Gu Nan nodded with a smile, and then said in a low voice, "I want to have a private word with my sister-in-law."

Yang Yun nodded her chin, and walked back to the hall with her plump peach buttocks, her brows and eyes were full of joy, it seemed that she had really attracted a talent.

"Sister-in-law, let's leave Jinling tomorrow morning." Gu Nan tried to keep his voice down.

"You want to abscond in fear of crime?" Xiao Mei grabbed his arm suddenly, her fingernails were almost embedded in the flesh.

"Bah, bah, Xiao Nan was wronged." She regained her composure, let go of her palms, and asked cautiously:

"Why leave?"

"Fourteen guards in the second corridor of the Ding prison died suddenly. I dare not go to purgatory again." Gu Nan made up an excuse.

Xiao Mei frowned slightly, her eyes filled with admiration, "Yes, let's not go to purgatory, let your Aunt Yang run some work, and send a local county to take up a position."

Purgatory is too dangerous, she doesn't want to sleep all night.

"I mean to leave Chu State." Gu Nan repeated, and saw his sister-in-law started to put on a straight face.

"Our Gu family has been Chu people for generations, how can we stay away from our homeland?" Without even thinking about it, Xiao Mei directly vetoed it.

Gu Nan knew very well that his sister-in-law was a war wolf in the Chu state. In the past, every time he criticized the current situation, he was scolded bloody, and he had an inexplicable admiration for the empress.
