After the wrong flirtation, I became the villain's favorite

He was personally responsible for the extermination of Jiang Zhong's family.

There was no way she could leave Xie Tan.

The emperor was determined to win her over and was clearing the way for her to be with him.

"Your Majesty did not order the killing of Lord Xie. If Your Majesty wanted to do it, why did he let him die on the Guangling Canal?" Chen Liang said calmly, "My lady has misunderstood Your Majesty."

"Although my wife has no position in the palace now, she is favored by His Majesty. She is of noble status and does not need to bow to anyone. She lives a luxurious life that others can't imagine. The mermaid silk on my wife's body is equivalent to the food of ordinary people for a year. After the New Year, the country of Boli submitted a petition requesting that the remains of the 19th prince be returned to their homeland. His Majesty thought of a way to appease them, and only then did Song Lanzhi have peace."

The cold-faced eunuch looked stern, and said with a half smile: "No merit, no reward. Do you understand this principle, my lady?"

"The health of the young master of the Song family is much better than before he was in the palace. This is all thanks to the rare medicinal herbs that Your Majesty has found from all over the world. What if these herbs run out one day?"

The woman who had been keeping her head down suddenly raised her eyes and looked coldly at the eunuch in front of her.

Chen Liang smiled and said, "If your majesty wants to kill Song Lanzhi, you will not let him know who did it."

The black and gold python robe on Chen Liang silently exuded the aura of power. He looked at her quietly, and his expression clearly expressed that this was an order that she must obey.

His words were not very tactful, so how could Song Nihuan not understand?

She nodded and said calmly, "I understand."

Chen Liang sighed slightly.

"Madam, are you ready?"

Chen Liang's voice now sounded outside the hall, and compared to the half-threat, half-request tone of the previous few days, it was much more relaxed.

Song Nihuan sneered in his heart, thinking that being an emperor was good, he didn't need to say anything he wanted to do, his subordinates would do it for him.

But she also felt that she shouldn't have this kind of mentality. Xie Tan was good to her and she owed Xie Tan a favor. She had nothing else now and nothing to repay him with but herself.

If spending a night with him could pay it off, that would be great.

She also hoped that Xie Tan's obsession would end after he got her.

Chen Liang also felt that they could not let the two of them remain in a stalemate like a black-eyed chicken. The woman was stubborn and opinionated, and the emperor was like a fool who did not know how to adapt. If they continued like this, who knows what shocking thing the emperor would do.

Earlier at the Xie family, he was really sweating in secret.

Now I think that what happens between a man and a woman is nothing more than that. It would be better for me to do it secretly than not to have her at all. If the emperor gets her, maybe he will find her boring and uninteresting.

Perhaps the sarcasm was too much, Chen Liang said worriedly: "It would be inappropriate for my lady to go to see His Majesty like this."

After the previous conversation, the unfamiliarity between her and Chen Liang had faded a little.

Song Nihuan asked, "Can you help me, eunuch?"

Chen Liang glanced at Shuanghua who was standing beside him and said, "Take it out and give it to my wife."

In Song Nihuan's surprised eyes, there was Chen Liang's determined smile.

Shuanghua washed the medicine with water, trembling, and handed it to Song Nihuan, whispering: "Madam, His Majesty is a good man..."

"My lady, despite being unwilling in every way, has been favored by His Majesty. This proves that what is destined to happen will eventually come true. Everything will go well in the future," said Chen Liang.

No wonder he was able to sit on the top seat among the eunuchs. His words were soothing to the ears.

Song Nihuan drank the water in one breath, with a sad smile on the corner of her lips, and said, "Master Governor, please be magnanimous. Let's go."

The moon was at its zenith and the night in the palace was very quiet, perhaps due to the emptiness of the harem.

Song Nihuan followed the eunuch who led the way, feeling very calm.

A burning sensation gradually rose in my lower abdomen. I had this feeling many years ago.

She had no control over her own destiny then, and she still had no control over her own destiny now.

But the confusion, hesitation, and desperation I felt at that time seem like a lifetime ago.

"The moon is so beautiful." Song Nihuan looked at the moonlight and said lightly.

Piaomiao Peak in Yunmengze.

No one can tell exactly how high Piaomiao Peak is.

The children at the foot of the mountain said that the deepest part of the clouds was where the gods lived.

But if you ask what an immortal looks like, no one can tell you.

Speaking of immortals, the older generation said that immortals would appear when people were in distress and despair, and the children also had sincere looks on their faces.

The belief that there are immortals on Piaomiao Peak is a fact passed down through generations and is deeply rooted in the hearts of every villager in Piaomiao Village.

Yunier thought of the unconscious young man she found on the riverbank a few days ago. He was cold and otherworldly, and even with his eyes closed he was so handsome that he didn't look like an ordinary person.

The village's human trafficker is said to have been to faraway places and is the most knowledgeable. Even she said that the young man might have come down from Piaomiao Peak.

The moonlight in the mountains was very bright, and it cast a white shadow on the outside through the simple paper-pasted window. Xie Yunji put on a robe and went to close the window. When he opened it a crack, a biting chill came in.

Everything was quiet. It was late at night in the mountains and the dew was heavy. Even the chirping of insects and the humming of animals could be heard clearly.

It has been more than half a month since we sailed downstream from Yijiang River to this small village.

After Xie Yunji woke up, he circulated his body's breath for several small cycles in this farmhouse. Finally, the blockage in his meridians was relieved a lot. The chill from soaking in the river water in his body also disappeared somehow. However, the old wound on his chest still hurt slightly.

He looked at the scarlet cloth shoe under the moonlight and frowned barely perceptibly.

When he put down the pole in his hand and was about to close the window, the little girl came out of the mist and whispered, "Are you awake?"

He nodded slightly, "Thank you for saving me."

In fact, he had woken up a long time ago, but the cautious calculations he had been walking on thin ice in the court over the years and the cautious nature he had developed made him not in a hurry to open his eyes.

Instead, he quietly observed everything around him.

Farmhouse, peasant woman, little girl.

They had saved him, and they had no ill intentions.

Xie Yunji smiled slightly from his tightly pursed lips, and his tone softened a lot, "I have been bothering you for many days, and I haven't thanked you for saving my life yet. Miss, where is your father?"

Yunnier looked at him in surprise, pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "I was the one who saved you! Why do you still need to look for my parents? I am almost fourteen this year, I am an adult!"

Xie Yunji smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "It was the young lady who saved me."

Almost fourteen...

Perhaps due to the strong wind and sand in the mountains, the girl's dark face was slightly red, her eyes were clear and bright, and her whole body was like a dewdrop in the morning.

It turns out that fourteen years old is so young.

When she was fourteen years old, she faced a huge change in her life... How helpless and desperate Song Nihuan must have felt at that time.

He just stood by and watched with a clear conscience.

She was clearly still a child at that time.

Xie Yunji's eyes dimmed slightly, and he silently covered his chest with his hands. There was a dull pain in that place that was unbearable.
