Allure Ugly Concubine

Chapter 16 Showdown
When Lin Zijiang returned to Nanlin Garden, Chu Yue was still standing where he was last night, tall and straight like a sculpture, Lin Zijiang even suspected that he hadn't moved since he left.

Hearing the slight noise, Chu Yue slightly turned his head in Lin Zijiang's direction,

Looking at Chu Yue's face, Lin Zijiang was surprised again. Didn't he have a trace of blood on his face yesterday, as if he was seriously ill? Why does he seem to have recovered now?
"Did you bring it?" Chu Yue asked first.

"En." Lin Zijiang approached him, and handed over two white flowers in his hands, the roots of which were still stained with some damp soil.These are actually the white wildflowers that grow in Wutongyuan. Lin Zijiang thinks they are beautiful, and because they are wildflowers, Chu Yue probably wouldn't recognize them, so she dug up two after going back last night.

Chu Yue took the flower, scrutinized it in his hand, and asked, "This flower... I haven't seen this flower before, what's its name?"

How could Lin Zijiang know the name of this kind of wild flower, but since Chu Yue had never seen it before, let's make it up.This flower is as white and round as a jade plate, so much like the moon last night, so I said: "It's called the full moon... it means to wish people happiness and happiness, so I..."

Lin Zijiang stopped before she finished speaking, because she felt that Chu Yue's hand was attacking her, and the target was her neck.Lin Zijiang quickly lowered his head, and then stepped back sideways, but unexpectedly there was the red wall behind him, Lin Zijiang had no way to retreat, and Chu Yue had already pinched his neck in an instant.

Chu Yue's strength was great, and Lin Zijiang soon felt that it was difficult to breathe. She immediately patted the upper right side of the back of Chu Yue's palm. This is the weakest part of the hand, and one pat would dissipate the strength.But this didn't seem to have any effect on Chu Yue, seeing his hands getting tighter and tighter.In desperation, Lin Zijiang grabbed Chu Yue's little finger and stretched it out, while attacking Chu Yue's lower body with his feet.This is the best way to deal with men who are stronger than herself, but it is also the fighting method she disdains to use the most before, because no one has been able to push her to this point before, but after Lin Zijiang changed her body, her speed and strength were all the same. Not half as good as before, and Chu Yue is so powerful, she can only use this method to save her life.

Sure enough, Chu Yue blocked Lin Zijiang's kicking leg with his left hand, and the little finger of his right hand was hurting again. He couldn't help letting go of his hand, and Lin Zijiang escaped from his hand, and quickly distanced himself from him, panting heavily. At the same time, he was wary of Chu Yue.

But Chu Yue didn't attack again, but looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't believe that this woman could escape from him.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Zijiang said hastily: "I don't know where I offended the lord, please let me know clearly."

Chu Yue was silent for a while, and then said: "I'll give you one last chance, you'd better confess, otherwise you will definitely not be able to leave here alive today."

Lin Zijiang thought to himself, he offended Chu Yue when he mentioned "full moon" just now, could it be related to the name he made up?He looked so strange yesterday, could it be related to these two words?This Chu Yue is really cunning, deliberately speaking so vaguely, is he trying to play psychological warfare?But now that he is at the bottom, and he is so smart, since he can't be fooled, it's better to show his cards to him directly, expressing that he just wants to leave and doesn't want to pry into his secrets, maybe there is still a chance.

"Well, since the prince is so smart, I can only tell the truth. Planting flowers and the full moon are all nonsense. I dug a hole here last night to escape." Lin Zijiang said frankly.

Hearing that Chu Yue was still calm, he couldn't see any change in his expression, he just raised his eyes slightly and asked, "Why do you want to run away?"

"I'm just ugly, but I'm not stupid." Lin Zijiang continued, "The emperor knew that I was like this, and gave the prince a marriage. You can imagine the reason. I know I'm humble, but I don't want to be someone else's tool .”

"Do you think you can escape? Even if you leave the palace, this king will definitely be able to catch you back." Chu Yue said with narrowed eyes.

"No matter what, I want to give it a go." Lin Zijiang said firmly, "Besides, it will be good for the prince if I leave. The emperor's gift of marriage is just the beginning. Even if the prince can silence everyone in the palace now, he must accept When I come down, the emperor will make arrangements to expose this ugly woman to others, and then the prince will become the laughing stock of the world."

Chu Yue raised the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, sneered, and said to Lin Zijiang: "Do you think this king really cares about the opinions of those irrelevant people? It's just that this king hates being calculated, even if I don't care Calculations, yes! No! OK!" Looking at Chu Yue, his eyes became darker, and seemed to be fierce.

"In that case, I beg your lord to help you." Lin Zijiang begged with a sincere tone.

"Even if this king fulfills you, do you think the emperor will fulfill you?" Chu Yue asked back.

In fact, Lin Zijiang also knew that since she was a pawn used by the emperor to humiliate King Yue, how could the emperor give up this opportunity so easily?Even if the emperor doesn't pursue it, what about Concubine Li?If he really left, I am afraid that the emperor would seize this rare opportunity to attack the king of Yue.Compared with having an ugly princess, it is more serious to disobey the imperial decree.So Chu Yue will definitely not let the emperor take the opportunity to attack.

Thinking of this, Lin Zijiang could only bow his head and apologize, "It's because I didn't think carefully, and I apologize to the prince for this matter."

After being silent for a while, Chu Yue said: "Three years... After three years, you can leave. But during this time, you'd better stop playing tricks, so as not to harm others or yourself."

Hearing this, Lin Zijiang wondered if he had heard it wrong, and quickly raised his head to look at Chu Yue's expression, but the other party's eyes were blurred, and he still looked cold, as if he had never said what he said just now.Lin Zijiang had no choice but to ask confirmingly: "Does the lord mean that he will let me go after three years?"

Chu Yue didn't answer, but turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, a leisurely voice came: "Three years later, you have nothing to do with this king..."

Lin Zijiang walked back while analyzing Chu Yue's words in his mind.Is Chu Yue really so kind to let her go after three years?Or what kind of conspiracy?And Li Shang should be back now, if he told Chu Yue that I lied to him, would Chu Yue change his mind again?

Just as she was thinking, suddenly a group of maidservants in front of her came towards her, Lin Zijiang quickly lowered her head.

But the group of people didn't notice Lin Zijiang who was bowing his head, but started chatting.

"Hey, why haven't you seen Guard Li these few days?"

"You don't know yet, I heard that guard Li was locked up by the prince, and he is being punished now."

"Ah... isn't he the most loyal all along, he doesn't even say a word, what mistake did he make?"

"I don't know either. It seems that he left his post without authorization and did something to betray the prince. The prince is very angry."

"Ah? The lord hates betrayal the most. Even if he was favored more by the guards before, I'm afraid this time it will be more ominous."

"No, I just saw someone bring out a basin of blood from the prison. The punishment in our palace is notoriously cruel. How many people were tortured to death there before?"

"Stop talking about it, he's scary. He's scary in his usual appearance, and it's even more scary if he turns into a ghost..."

"Don't talk, don't talk, let's go. It will be miserable for the prince to hear."

Hearing the conversation of those people, Lin Zijiang was stunned.Was Li Shang punished because of her?So that's what Chu Yue meant when he said that he hurt others and himself?Was she going to kill another person not long after she was reborn?
No, Li Shang suffered all this to help her, she must not let him die...
