Zhu Ming was lifted up by the back of his collar and was about to struggle, but he stopped in shock when he heard Nie Zhen addressing him. He raised his head and stared at the man on the right, his lips moved. , but couldn't say a word.

Xiao Luomo turned to look at Nie Zhen, let out a soft cry, walked up to Nie Zhen's legs, raised his paw and scratched the hem of the man's clothes, and was immediately picked up by Nie Zhen.

Nie Zhen looked at Zhu Ming's pale face with cold eyes, and turned to Ying Er who was carrying the man.

Seeing this, Ying Er let go of his hand, saluted respectfully, and jumped up the tree with his feet.

Zhu Ming took a step back with weak legs and sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, staring fixedly at Nie Zhen, with cold sweat all over his forehead. Seeing Nie Zhen's cold face and not speaking for a while, he couldn't help but stand up and salute, "Zhu Ming I have seen Prince Rui."

"Daqing has always stipulated that the national teacher does not need to greet other people except the current sage, and the national teacher does not have to do so." Nie Zhen replied casually.

"You..." Zhu Ming took a deep breath to suppress the panic in his heart, and smiled reluctantly, "Why did Prince Rui make such a joke with Zhu Ming? Zhu Ming is just an imperial doctor, even if his name is similar to that of a national teacher, he would never dare to pretend to be a doctor. The status of the national teacher, I hope the prince will not make this joke again."

Nie Zhen rubbed the kitten's neck, noncommittal, only hooked his lips slightly, his expression suddenly looked a little wicked, he put away his smile, his eyes were as cold as a knife, "I wish the imperial doctor is not a national teacher, why did you tell Changle that you would Is it the masters of the state? Could it be that the imperial physician covets the position of the state teacher and wants to replace him?"

Zhu Ming instantly raised his head, with an unbelievable expression on his face, he asked with a trembling voice, "Prince Rui heard what Princess Changle said?"

"Changle never likes to talk about other people's rights and wrongs. I wish the imperial doctor couldn't even do the most basic trust, so why talk about love?" Nie Zhen said lightly, "The national teacher thinks very highly of himself. Do you think the king's secret cabinet is just a decoration?"

Zhu Ming's back was covered in cold sweat when he heard the words, and finally he couldn't bear the pressure and knelt down, "Zhu Ming's sincerity to the princess is unmistakable, and he has no regrets in his heart. He doesn't want to hide anything from the princess, even if the princess told the prince about it. , Zhu Ming also has no complaints or regrets. It’s just that this matter is the fault of Zhu Ming alone, and no one in the National Teacher’s Mansion knows the truth, and I hope the prince will not pursue others.”

Nie Zhen looked down at the man kneeling on the ground, frowning, but his eyes became colder and colder, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Xiao Luomo sat in the palm of his hand and glanced at his expression, then looked at Zhu Ming with some sympathy, and said with a complicated mood: "System, don't you want to say something?"

"... What else can this system say?" The system said almost furiously, "Haven't you seen that even a serious person like Nie Zhen is speechless to Zhu Ming? Oh my god! This is simply what the system has been doing for hundreds of years. The most intelligent mission target I have ever seen! Nie Zhen just threatened him a few words and he will not call himself! Didn't he think that Nie Zhen might just test him? Prince Rui may not have evidence in hand, this I am only convinced by Zhu Ming's confession speed! This is the first time I want to just give up on him and let him fend for himself, this kind of mission object is simply irreplaceable!"

Xiao Luomo blinked helplessly when he saw that the system was so angry that the entire light cluster turned red.

To be honest, it felt that what the system said was true, Zhu Ming was indeed... IQ is anxious, this is probably the first time Nie Zhen has met such a person.However, compared to the stupid behavior of not recruiting himself, which is tantamount to asking for death, Zhu Ming's real problem... I am afraid it is not this, and Nie Zhen should have seen it.

"For the crime of deceiving the emperor, the national teacher knows that innocent people will be implicated, and even if you act willfully for your own selfish thoughts, so what if you admit it frankly and think you are upright?" Nie Zhen said coldly, "If you are the son-in-law of Changle, this matter will be taken by others. Knowing that you are responsible for the death alone, how should Changle deal with itself? You claim to be honest with Changle, but you have repeatedly concealed the matter of Concubine Yu. "

As soon as Nie Zhen finished speaking, Zhu Ming, who had been lying down, trembled all over his body, his eyes widened and he stared at the ground.

He thought about how Prince Rui would blame himself after pleading guilty, and he was even prepared to die immediately, but he never expected that the other party would say such a thing.But the content of these words made him feel more frightened and embarrassed than ordering him to be executed immediately.

What the other party said hit the nail on the head, and every word can be said to be heartbreaking.Every sentence Nie Zhen said was a fact that he had been avoiding and dared not face. He only wanted to procrastinate if everything was in order, but he didn't expect to be seen so easily by the other party.Now being exposed so bare/naked/naked, the overwhelming embarrassment, guilt, remorse and despair that surged up instantly made him wish he could grab the ground with his head.

Indeed, from the very beginning, he dreamed of sitting and enjoying the blessings of everyone. He could not forget the affection between Concubine Yu and his childhood sweetheart, and was deeply attracted by Princess Changle's dazzling beauty.

If he gave up on Concubine Yu, then the friendship between their childhood sweethearts for so many years would be ruined, how could he be willing?Even though Yan Yu has married into a woman, he still despicably wants to win her back, which in itself is extremely rebellious and doomed to be cast aside by thousands of people.

If he gives up Changle, the despair that seems to lose everything and his whole life will be bleak will make him painful. There is no more beautiful person in this world than Princess Changle, even Concubine Yu can't compare with her.She is so transparent and dazzling, every frown and smile makes him fall in love with him, he only wants to crawl in the dust and treat her like a treasure, and he doesn't want her to have any unsatisfactory things.

However, it was such indecision that made him conceal the matter of Concubine Yu against his conscience, and he was not honest with Chang Le.Even if he and Concubine Yu are innocent, it can't cover up his despicable delusion.

Every word Prince Rui said is true, he is indeed the most irresponsible person.

Nie Zhen looked at the trembling man lying on the ground, and said indifferently: "This matter involves Changle, and I don't want to pursue it further. The national teacher should know better than this king what to do in the future. If one day Changle is affected by you , this king should be the first to take your head, and then kill all the nine clans, so as to confirm the title of the national teacher "with no shame in my heart". This is all I have to say, so I can do it myself."

After Nie Zhen finished speaking, he stopped looking at the people on the ground, and only stroked the kitten's back comfortingly. He looked into Xiao Luomo's blue eyes, and after pondering for a moment, he added, "One more thing, this king's cat is born with courage. If you are afraid of strangers, especially when facing people with evil intentions, it is better for the national teacher to stay away."

Xiao Luomo meowed twice in agreement, poked Nie Zhen's palm with the tip of his tail, and looked back at Zhu Ming, his clear eyes just met the other's red eyes.In just a second, those eyes looked away quickly as if they were being pricked by needles, as if they didn't dare to look at it again.

Xiao Luomo tilted his head, and said softly: "Don't forget my reminder just now. And what Nie Zhen said to you, it's too late to look back now, otherwise you will be a bachelor for the rest of your life just like the system, it's very pitiful .”

"Bah, bah, bah! Who are you talking about being a bachelor!" The system was floating quietly to the side, but upon hearing this, it jumped up angrily and questioned.

Xiao Luomo glanced at it innocently, as if saying that was the case, no matter how hard the system was hit, he stretched out his tail and patted Nie Zhen's hand, and was hugged by the man's tail and left.

***

Nie Zhen did not leave the palace directly with Xiao Luomo in his arms, but instead walked towards the Emperor's Hall of Mental Cultivation.

He glanced down at the quiet kitten, and said in a deep voice, "Catty, do you still remember what you promised me before I came to court?"

Little Luo Mo froze immediately, carefully retracted his tail and tucked it under his body to sit down, his round body turned to face the man, and meowed flatteringly.

Nie Zhen frowned and stroked its head, and said coldly, "It's useless to act like a baby."

Xiao Luomo lowered his head pitifully, rubbed his head in Nie Zhen's hands, and yelled again. Seeing that Nie Zhen was unmoved, he had no choice but to bury his head and not speak.

As soon as it was called by the system, it went out thinking it was time to do a task. It forgot what Nie Zhen told it not to run around before leaving. Now Nie Zhen remembered to settle accounts.

"You explain to him. He has no principles for you." The system has repaired the wounded heart, and suggested sincerely.

"But now Nie Zhen can't understand me." Xiao Luomo was very entangled, "If I wait until night to explain, he will disappear again."

"That's why shit shovelers and cats like you who can't communicate are troublesome. Telepathy can't solve this complicated situation at all." The system put its hips on its hips and thought, "I suggest you learn to write with your mouth biting a brush, but this The system suspects that you can't even bite a brush."

Xiao Luomo nodded in distress, licked Nie Zhen's palm quietly, and looked up at the other party, just in time to meet the man's focused and deep gaze.

"If the cat gets lost, do you know how anxious this king will be?" Nie Zhen whispered.

"Meow!" Xiao Luomo lowered his head and rubbed Nie Zhen's hand hard, apologizing softly. After a while, he sat up, stretched out his tail and stuffed it between Nie Zhen's fingers, and raised his head and called out trustingly.

A trace of surprise flashed in Nie Zhen's long and narrow eyes, which disappeared in a flash.He held the tail lightly, and saw that the kitten obediently did not show any resistance, but instead tilted its head innocently, its eyes slowly becoming unfathomable.

"The cat is willing to give the tail to me?" he asked in a low voice.

Xiao Luomo nodded slowly.

Hearing this, Nie Zhen rubbed the tip of his tail lightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "This is not an example."

"Meow!" Xiao Luomo happily stood up and wanted to turn around, but because the tail was held, Baji sat back down again. It was stunned for a second, and then it raised its head and yelled foolishly.

The cry was soft and thin, and it made people feel extremely soft-hearted.

Nie Zhen looked at it acting like a baby, his eyes gradually softened, he raised his hand and put the cat into his clothes, feeling the warm little body against his chest, his expression was hard to distinguish, but if you look carefully, you will find that the cat is in his eyes. It was a bit more satisfying than before, and the emotion was no longer hidden because it avoided the kitten's sight, and it was so strong that it was shocking.

The system stared at his expression for a while, moved behind the man anxiously, and asked Xiao Luomo in a low voice, "What did you mean by holding the tail just now? Why does Nie Zhen look... a little scary."

"It's for the tail, which means complete trust." Xiao Luomo replied strangely.

"So it's like this..." the system said uneasily, recalling Nie Zhen's expression again, always felt that something was wrong, but he was really not sure about his guess.

Little Luo Mo is just a cat now, no matter how strong Wang Rui's desire to control is, he shouldn't be able to change to that degree, right?Nie Zhen at night is okay to say that he is not a normal person, and the system can understand it, but during the day this... is obviously indifferent and restrained like that, but he still can't restrain his secret thoughts. I'm afraid it's no better than the one at night.

The system even had an intuition that Nie Zhen's hidden thoughts in front of the kitten at this moment were much more terrifying than the undisguised and reckless one at night.
