Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 381 Are you threatening me?
The visitor was capable, dressed in red, with the corners of his eyes slightly raised. He looked at Nan Zhen with a very unkind look, and his mouth was mixed with a trace of anger.

It was the person Xue Lin sent to watch her, Hongying.

Nan Zhen was a little confused, she glanced at her calmly, and said calmly, "I'm alone in the room, talking to myself."

"is it?"

The other party obviously didn't believe it, and glanced at Nan Zhen's face, walked around the room, and finally landed on the unlatched window.

Hongying narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her legs and walked over, checked carefully, and found no traces on it, so she was a little relieved.

That's right, the surroundings are all our own people, and if there is any abnormality, the guards will know immediately.

And Huaping is a weak woman who doesn't know kung fu, unless she grows wings, she has no chance to escape.

She turned around and looked at Nan Zhen who was still pouring tea and sipping carefully, and couldn't help but said, "You'd better be honest, or you will look better than me!"

Nan Zhen raised her glass slightly, her eyelashes trembling, but she smiled and said nothing.

She didn't know what Hongying's position was in Xue Lin's side, but she was pretty good at acting in front of her.

Seeing Nan Zhen's mocking expression, Hong Ying frowned, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing." Nan Zhen swallowed the tea in her mouth, put the cup down lightly, then raised her eyes and asked, "I'm just curious, do you dare to do something to me?"

This sentence, coupled with her expression, is full of provocation.

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Hong Ying slowly approached her, "You are a treasure in front of Ye Dudu, but you are not as good as an ant with me. Do you think I'm here to serve your maid?"

Nan Zhen shook her head, bent her elbow and rested her chin, and looked at her with interest, "You are not a maid, but I am not a prisoner either."

Her tone was light, without any waves, but what she said was undeniable, "I am still useful to adults, he will not touch me easily, how can you, a subordinate, have the ability to lynch me?"

"My life is poor, and I am delicate and weak. I can't compare to a martial arts practitioner like you. If there is something wrong, so that the adults can no longer use me to put pressure on the governor, won't you be the one who is unlucky in the end?"

As Nan Zhen spoke, she tapped her index finger on the table lightly. The sound was subtle and regular, and it fell into Hongying's ears, making her feel worried.

She looked at Nan Zhen fixedly, and said after a while, "Are you threatening me?"

Xue Lin asked her to come in for surveillance with two meanings.

One is to cut off her contact with outsiders. After all, no one knows if Ye Jingyuan has any back-ups. If something goes wrong, they can deal with it in time.

The second is to prevent her from committing suicide in a hurry and losing the opportunity to control Ye Jingyuan.

But Hongying didn't expect her to say such a thing, and she was a little uncertain about what she meant.

Nan Zhen shook her head, "I'm not threatening you, I just want to tell you, don't say it easily if you can't do it, or it will easily become a joke."

Although there was a smile on the corner of Nan Zhen's mouth, her voice was very cold.

She has always done more than talk, and she has heard a lot of threats like this today, and she is really upset.

What's more, from the moment Hongying entered the door, she held an inexplicable hostility towards her, and if she swallowed her anger, she would no longer be Nan Zhen.

"you……"

Hong Ying raised her finger and pointed at her, but she didn't say a word for a while.

I have to admit that what Nan Zhen said is reasonable, but she has always been like this. Except for Xue Lin, almost no one dares to refute her. Over time, she has formed a habit.

I didn't expect that Nan Zhen would turn against the general now.

After a while, the corners of Hongying's mouth curled up, her expression contemptuous, "Then you should pray that you are really useful, otherwise, you will die an ugly death."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for her to answer, he walked to the couch outside the bead curtain, turned his back to Nan Zhen, and lay down with his clothes on.

Nan Zhen smiled indifferently, got up and extinguished the candle, and closed her eyes to rest.

The wind outside the window made the leaves rustle, the dark clouds gathered, and within a short while, heavy rain poured down.

The rush of rain hit the roof, covering the footsteps in the house.

Hongying stood by the bed, staring at the person on the bed who was breathing evenly and with relaxed brows, raised the dagger in his hand, and stabbed down violently——

Finally the dagger stopped two inches from the neck.

She took a deep breath, that's all, when Ye Jingyuan revealed all the secret bases, the person in front of him would be useless, and she would decide how to torture him at that time?

Hongying put away the dagger and nestled back on the couch again.

When she turned around, Nan Zhen quietly opened her eyes, staring at the swaying shadow in the night, silent.

……

A night of torrential rain seemed to have washed the city clean.

The petals outside the courtyard were scattered all over the ground, and they were in a state of decline. When the door was opened in the early morning, the smell of soil could still be smelled.

In the Qiyun Pavilion, Yu Huaishan is diagnosing Xiao Rongxi's pulse.

He used his internal strength last night, and he felt a little uncomfortable after he came back, but fortunately, it was not serious, and he felt much more relaxed after acupuncture.

Yu Huaishan said while recuperating his pulse, "Fortunately, there is no serious problem. How does Your Majesty feel recently?"

"Nothing special." Xiao Rongxi straightened his sleeves and shook his head, "It's not painful or itchy, but have I been sleeping longer these days than before?"

Yu Huaishan: "Maybe it's because I've been too tired recently, Your Majesty don't need to worry too much."

As soon as the words fell, Fei Liu came striding from outside, saluted Xiao Rongxi, and said, "Your Majesty, General Zhou is here."

"So fast?"

Xiao Rongxi was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Please invite people in."

"Yes."

It was yesterday afternoon that he received the news from Nan Zhen. In the evening, he wrote a letter back to the capital. Unexpectedly, Zhou Lvqi came to the door early this morning.

After about half a cup of tea, Fei Liu led a man dressed as a servant into the courtyard.

However, this person's eyebrows and eyes are straight, and his steps are steady, and he can tell the difference at a glance.

After approaching, Zhou Luqi saw Xiao Rongxi, and immediately saluted with fists together, "I will see your majesty at the end."

"General Zhou please stand up."

Xiao Rongxi gave him a little help, motioning for him to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Zhou Luqi took his seat, he didn't exchange too many greetings, and straight to the point, "Early this morning, before dawn, the general received a letter from General Wei, knowing that His Majesty is in Pengcheng, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he came directly without waiting for the notification. , I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Xiao Rongxi smiled, "Follow the expediency, there is no need to pay attention to these vain etiquette. Since you have received the letter from Old General Wei, you should know why I am looking for you this time."

Zhou Luqi nodded, "Understood."

"I didn't know Dudu Ye well before, but recently I heard from my colleagues that his temperament has changed and his behavior is different from usual. I thought it was His Majesty's other instructions, but I didn't expect it to be a fake."

"I never thought that such an important place in Pengcheng would be so severely corroded by moths." Xiao Rongxi squinted his eyes, "In your opinion, who else is available now?"
