2: Almighty Emperor

A pair of eyes that see through everything?

"Hahaha..." Zhenliang laughed without any morals, and pretended to be nervous, covering his chest with both hands, as if he no longer regarded Nangong Lie as the kind of man who was aggressive towards him, and joked, "Is the emperor also Can you see the color of anyone's innermost clothes? Ah, it's scary!"

Nangong Lie shook his head solemnly, "I'm going to disappoint you, because I can't see through anyone, but I can only see through you."

At this moment, Zhenliang's face turned red, and finally realized that he had said something that should not have been said, and made an analogy that should not have been made.

In order to ease the embarrassment, Zhenliang decided to quickly shift Nangong Lie's attention to her face.

So, regardless of his blushing face, Zhenliang took off the mask on his face, looked straight at Nangong Lie's deep phoenix eyes, and asked, "The last time in Youyuan, did the emperor find out that the concubine's face Have the brown spots on your skin gotten bigger?"

Nangong Lie was startled, and then said frankly, "Yes, but I didn't expect you to find out after so many days."

The man's words were equivalent to scolding himself for being stupid, Zhenliang smiled stupidly, and felt that he was stupid too, because he didn't find any abnormalities in the parts of his face, but let him see it at a glance.

"That's right, the concubine is too slow. I didn't find out the real reason why the emperor gave the concubine the emerald and silver hairpin until today."

Zhenliang slowly put away the smile on his face, and replaced it with a sad face, "Your Majesty, I am afraid that the brown spots on my face will become bigger and bigger, until one day, they will spread all over the whole picture. The face is so ugly that even this mask can't cover it."

In fact, Masuzu didn't feel much worry about her brown spots getting bigger, she was just curious about the reason.

Nangong Lie said coldly, "There won't be that day, I will find famous doctors all over the world for you."

These words are really bold, Zhenliang has to admit that he likes to hear it, as if she is the woman he really loves, and he is willing to give everything for her.

Of course, this is nothing more than a combination of her delusion and fantasy.

Zhenliang said bitterly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but you don't have to worry about it, because my concubine has already sought out many famous doctors before entering the palace."

After Zhenliang said this, she felt very familiar, as if she had told Nangong Lie in detail when she was in Youyuan?

Indeed, she said it, but because Nangong Lie didn't accept it or believe it, she re-emphasized it.

Nangong Lie naturally knew about these things about Zhenliang, but he would not give up if he hadn't experienced it himself, so he took a step back and said, "Even if it can't be cured, so what? I won't drive you out of the palace because of this."

All her life, she was just his woman.

Zhenliang pouted, "Even if the emperor doesn't despise the concubine, but the concubine will despise himself, facing the mocking eyes of others, how can the concubine have the face to continue to survive in this palace? Oh, no, when the concubine is face When covered with brown spots, the concubines have already lost their face."

Nangong Lie narrowed his eyes, of course he knew that Zhenliang's visit this time would definitely not be as simple as complaining to him, complaining would definitely not be her purpose.

"According to what you mean, what do you want?" Nangong Lie asked directly.

Zhenliang sighed inwardly, the man finally got the point.

"Women all love beauty, and Chenqie is no exception. Therefore, Chenqie wants to investigate whether the brown spots on her face are natural or caused by poisoning. Chenqie has a cousin , although he is only a pharmacist, but he is not afraid of the emperor's jokes, and my concubine believes that he has the potential to be a genius doctor."

"so what?"

"So, this concubine wants to go out of the palace to ask him to take a look at my brown spots. What's going on?"

"Since you are relatives, he should have seen your brown spots before you entered the palace."

Zhenliang shook his head, "Because of various reasons, I haven't seen it yet."

Nangong Lie pushed a cup of thick yellow tea in front of Zhenliang, and said, "After all, you just want to leave the palace. I remember that you promised me that you would never leave the palace within three months."

Regarding the things that he doesn't agree with, Zhenliang can't remember whether he has said it at all, but just pretended to be innocent, "Did the concubine say it? When?"

Although Nangong Lie has a good memory, he is definitely not the kind of person who likes to care about every detail. He just clicks and counts. He doesn't give evidence such as the time and place, but just throws a very contemptuous look at Zhenliang.

Zhenliang lowered his eyes guiltily, picked up the teacup and drank the tea slowly, and then said, "Your Majesty, actually, there is another important reason why this concubine wants to leave the palace this time."

"Oh?"

"Zhenqi was given to Chenqie by a friend. Chenqie had promised him that he would take good care of Zhenqi. However, the emperor also saw that Chenqie didn't provoke anyone, but someone wanted to murder Chenqie. , that person did not directly murder the concubine, but instead murdered Zhenqi. As far as the concubine is concerned, the concubine would rather be the one who got the arrow that day, than Zhenqi to have any mistakes. But the concubine is not here to question the emperor , just to illustrate the fact that until today, the emperor must have not been able to find the real culprit who murdered Zhenqi. Therefore, the concubine felt that Zhenqi had to be sent out of the palace, whether it was entrusted to his family or returned to that friend, It’s even safer than staying in the palace. Therefore, I implore the emperor to agree to such a small request.”

Nangong Lie suddenly realized, "It turns out that this is the small request you made to me that day. It sounds reasonable, but it is not small."

Zhenliang said forcefully, "This is relatively speaking. To a concubine, this is a big request, but to the almighty emperor, it is a very small request, right?"

The corners of Nangong Lie's mouth frowned slightly, "Do you think that if you praise me indiscriminately, I will agree softly?"

Zhenliang was so shameless, Jiao Didi said, "The emperor is the most soft-hearted person in the world, can you not agree?"

Seeing that Nangong Lie was still unwilling to say yes, Zhenliang continued to say, "Your Majesty, you pity the poor concubine, pity Zhenqi, pity the poor concubine and Zhenqi, right? The concubine has lost her beautiful appearance, and Zhenqi has lost her beauty." Without a healthy body, the concubine and Zhenqi will have to endure the pain of parting, can the emperor see...for the concubine is the most interesting woman in the harem, make concubine and Zhenqi complete?"

There is something to be said here, as ridiculous as it can be.

However, after Nangong Lie heard this, his heart softened to the point of utter confusion.

After taking a sip of tea, Nangong Lie finally expressed his opinion, "It's not that there is no need to discuss this matter. I will seriously consider it, but it must be after the murderer is found out."

Zhenliang's big bright eyes suddenly darkened again, and said, "Listen to what the emperor said, if the real culprit can't be found, then the concubine and Zhenqi don't want to leave the palace?"

Before Nangong Lie could answer, Eunuch Jiao said outside the door of the imperial study, "Your Majesty, something is wrong, Mr. Qiu hanged himself to death."
