A Romantic Beauty Around Imperial City

"You …" The Mayor rolls on the ground in pain, but no one has a hand in this place, and when he's looking for his teeth he doesn't think of asking for help.

"These are all orders from the emperor. This old man is powerless."

She had already guessed that it was Gong Ye's intention, but when she really heard it, Qian Li still thought that she was about to lose her balance.

Indeed, she couldn't understand why she and Murong Family would end up like this in the end after giving so much to Gong Ye and this world.

How much hatred must he have, in order to be so unforgettable?

Gong Ye, how much do you hate me?

~ Could it be that, if my corpse was not taken away by Gong Ming, you would treat me like that too?

"Then... Where's the Prime Minister's wife? "

"The Emperor didn't give her any special orders, and the corpse has always been difficult to preserve, so …" "After it was delivered here, we cut it into pieces and fed it to the dogs …"

Qian Li gritted her teeth, wishing that he could chop him into mincemeat. " And now, what are you doing? "

The tears were falling in great droplets, but luckily they were in the mask, so the Mayor couldn't see them.

The heart-wrenching pain from his arm made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Who the hell are you?"

Qian Li looked at him but did not reply. Instead, she squatted down and used a handkerchief to wrap the fingers one by one.

The mayor frowned, his face full of disapproval.

"You're not his descendant, are you?" Without waiting for Qian Li to reply, he continued, "That's not right, I heard that their family was executed by force, and that their daughter committed suicide or something similar, so there shouldn't be any omissions."

Qian Li still did not answer. She was restraining her temper and also considering whether or not she should kill the person in front of her.

If he were to kill it, he would have been so proud in his previous life, swearing to only kill bad people. This person's actions were obviously all under the orders of the emperor, Gong Ye.

But if she didn't kill her parents, and in such a cruel way at that, she would really …

He really wanted to chop him into pieces.

"You'd better shut up."

Qian Li was worried that she would not be able to control herself, but the person beside him was blabbering on and on, and at that moment, even though Qian Li had already warned him, he was still talking.

He said, "Are you trying to take this finger out? "I'm afraid it won't work …"

Qian Li frowned, and continued to seriously wrap around her.

It had really been too long, so … The smell was unstoppable.

"I know you might not believe my words, but what I want to tell you is that if you bring them out with you like this, you will definitely be discovered."

Qian Li turned her head and looked at the mayor seriously.

He looked very serious, as if he was really doing this for her good?

But would he?

Qian Li could not help but ask herself, how merciless she was, how calm she handled the corpse, with just a glance, she looked like she had gone through hundreds of battles. Was such a person really kind?

The answer was yes.

But strangely, from the moment she entered until now, Qian Li still did not seem to see any cruelty or viciousness in his eyes.

He was also someone that was hard to come by. It was rare to see someone who didn't have any martial arts …

So, could it be that he had made a mistake this time?

Without waiting for Qian Li to think it through, the mayor continued.

"There are quite a few dogs here. Although I don't know how you managed to avoid alarming them when you entered, but …"

The mayor seemed to really be in pain. Her hand that was chopped off by Qian Li was still at the side, but because of the angle they were at, it directly fell into the pond. At this moment, he was lying on the side with blood flowing out. His face had already turned pale.

When he spoke, he did so in an intermittent manner.

Seeing his pained look, Qian Li almost wanted to tell him to shut up and rest, but the words were immediately swallowed back down her throat.

No matter what, she had just witnessed how he treated her father. She wasn't that generous and could turn around and treat him with care.

"They are all people that have been fed meat and are extremely sensitive to these flavors. If you go out like this, you will definitely become a target for attack.

At that time, even if those dogs aren't your opponent, you won't take them seriously, but … "

"But," he said, "as soon as they move, the guards here will come out."

"There aren't many people here, just a few hundred," he said.

"But …" "However, they are extremely powerful existences. Although I do not know martial arts, I have seen countless of them. From what I see, although the young lady's hand is quite good, she is not a match for them."

Qian Li blinked, she did not use her full strength just now. Although her arm was chopped off with a single move, the mayor was after all just an ordinary person who did not even have the ability to protect herself.

It wouldn't have taken much effort to kill him, but …

If they were facing those people outside, it would be impossible for them to stay inside for too long.

Not to mention whether she could beat him, she was also a person with a broken leg right now. She was well aware of her own capabilities.

Therefore, Qian Li was not against the words of the butler at all.

Because she knew he was right.

But even so, even if she died today, she still had to take out her father's remaining fingers.

"You … Why are you telling me this? "

On the surface, he might not forgive him, but in his heart, he was already grateful.

She, Qian Li, had always been a person with clear rewards and penalties.

After the awkwardness in his heart passed, he no longer felt that hateful anymore.

"Since I've done so much, I naturally want to do a good deed. To tell you the truth, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Qian Li frowned slightly, "Since you want to die that badly, you can also decide for yourself right?"

The mayor sat up with Qian Li's support. He leaned on the pillar behind him and said weakly.

"As the saying goes, that person's money can help others get rid of calamities. Although I've never received money from your Emperor, I can't go back on my promise."

Qian Li did not understand, "So even if you know that the consequences of your promise are wrong, you still want to keep it?"

This thought was something that Qian Li couldn't understand no matter how hard she tried.

"Some things are not as simple as it seems."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Qian Li could only shut her mouth. She took out the medicine bottle that she brought along and said, "I'll apply the medicine for you."

But the Mayor stopped him with his other hand.

He shook his head, "I made an agreement not to die but not to be killed. Miss, all these years, I've lived like a zombie, and I'm already an age old. If I die now, there's nothing bad about it."

Qian Li had no right to interfere with other people's thoughts. She placed the bottle of medicine beside the mayor.

"I left the medicine here, I cut off your hand, so I have to be responsible for you, so letting it go or not is my problem. Whether you use it or live is your choice."

After saying that, Qian Li got up, put her carefully wrapped fingers into her belt, and immediately left.

"Finally … Now we can sleep in peace. "

I heard the Mayor say.

Qian Li originally wanted to leave immediately, but in the end she couldn't resist turning her head to look.

The distance was already quite far.

The light from the candles was flickering in the room.

Qian Li saw that the old man extended his hand and directly swept the bottle into the pond by the side, and then crawled back up, continuously walking towards the pond.

At that moment, for some reason, Qian Li felt incredibly sad.

In his previous life, his father had always told her.

"In his place, seek his position." In this way, he had once argued about some of his father's incorrect actions.

Faintly remembering his father's sad expression at the time, he said, "How could I not know that I was not particularly right when I did it, but my child, there is no such thing as absolutely right or wrong in this world. "Sometimes, we are all forced to do this."

At that time, she didn't understand the meaning behind those words, but as she grew older, as she experienced more and more, she gradually understood something.

That's why she didn't stop the Mayor from dying.

Everyone has their own choices, she does, and so does the Mayor.

Their thoughts, she could not interfere, they could not change.

The only thing she could do was to keep herself from beginning to end …

He remembered his initial wish.

Father, you're right. Indeed, growing up requires a huge price …
