Chapter 664 - 664 Make You Vomit Blood
664 Make You Vomit Blood
Changting Temple was located on a very quiet mountainside in the south of the Imperial Capital. Because the people of Nanzhao believed in the Gu God, the incense in the temple was not very good. However, it was precisely because of this that the temple seemed quiet.
This temple could no longer be opened a few years ago and was bought by Nangong Li to be a secret nest to cause trouble. There were few people here and the terrain was steep. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as there was any commotion at the foot of the mountain, the patrolling guards and sacrificial soldiers could see everything.
It was a last-minute idea to kidnap Consort Yun out of the palace. This was the inspiration Yu Wan had given him. Since Yu Wan cared so much about her biological mother and could not even tolerate a word of slander, then what about Consort Yun? Consort Yun was also her family, and a very pitiful family. She would definitely stand up for Consort Yun, right?
With this thought in mind, Nangong Li almost immediately kidnapped Consort Yun.
It was not easy to bring a living person out of the palace. Fortunately, he had the Empress’s waist tag and no one dared to check her carriage, so he easily succeeded. He did not care about the storm in the harem, let alone Consort Yun’s reputation. Whether the Emperor suppressed this matter or announced it to the world, it was not his concern.
There was only one thing in his mind, and that was how to use Yu Wan.
Yu Wan was an excellent chess piece. Not only could she restrain the Eldest Princess, but she could also keep Yan Jiuchao and Xiao Zhenting in check. Of course, the Helian family was no exception. It was no exaggeration to say that with her in hand, they almost had half of the power of Nanzhao and the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Why did the little girl who had once tried to open her heart to him change with a blink? He shouldn’t have accidentally let her see his conversation with Xu Shao, causing him to be exposed. She escaped in a fit of anger—
Fortunately, she was picked up by Yan Ruyu after escaping.
It was obvious that after going around in circles, she would fall into his hands in the end. She used to be, and would be.
Nangong Li pinched the jade ring on his left thumb, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes. He stood on the mountainside and looked in the direction of the foot of the mountain. After looking for a while, he estimated that there was still a long time before she arrived, so he returned to the meditation room.
Unexpectedly, the meditation room tonight was not as quiet as before.
This had to start with Consort Yun.
Consort Yun had been knocked unconscious in the palace, but when she woke up, she was already lying on a cold and unfamiliar bed. She had never been to a temple in her life, so she naturally did not recognize that this was a meditation room. Her first reaction was that she thought that she had been thrown into the Cold Palace by that dog of a Emperor.
Just as she was wondering, a novice monk entered with a food box. “Benefactor, you’re awake? This is tonight’s vegetarian meal. Please enjoy,” the novice monk said humbly before placing the food box on the table and leaving.
Benefactor? Vegetarian? Bald monk?
Consort Yun opened the door and took a look. She finally understood that she had been kidnapped to the temple.
F*ck!
Consort Yun cursed. In the next second, Consort Yun was amused. She had never left the palace in her life, but she actually came out at this age!
“Someone! Take down the vegetarian food!”
It was fine if they forced her to be a vegetarian in the palace, but now that she was out, they wanted her to be a nun? Dream on!
“Your Highness!” A guard guarding Consort Yun hurriedly came to Nangong Li’s meditation room.
Nangong Li was meditating quietly. When he heard his anxious tone, he frowned. “What’s wrong?”
The guard said awkwardly, “Her Highness doesn’t eat vegetarian food.”
“What does she want to eat?” Nangong Li asked with a frown.
The guard braced himself and said, “…Meat, she wants to eat meat.”
The corners of Nangong Li’s mouth twitched. This old woman actually had the cheek to say that she wanted to eat meat in a quiet place like the Buddhist Sect?
The guard said embarrassedly, “Her Highness said that if she wasn’t given meat to eat, she would starve to death. Even if she… even if she becomes a ghost, she won’t let you off.”
Listen, listen, listen, what kind of words are these? A dignified honored consort kept talking about death. Was she still a first-grade Imperial Consort? She was simply a shrew in the market!
Nangong Li thought of something and paused. “Wait, how did she know it was me?”
The guard hurriedly guaranteed, “I didn’t say that!”
That was Consort Yun’s own guess. It was not too difficult to guess. He had just entered the palace to meet the Empress tonight, so it was impossible for Consort Yun not to have received the news. In the blink of an eye, Consort Yun had been kidnapped here. It was obvious that no one else could easily transport a living person out of the palace.
The Emperor did not suspect him because the palace was big enough. The Emperor did not expect that Consort Yun had already left the palace. He only thought that Consort Yun was hiding in some corner to make him unhappy.
It was not that Consort Yun had never done such a thing before, but she had done it quite a lot. Before confirming that Consort Yun had no value to Yu Wan, Nangong Li would not treat her badly.
However, this was a temple after all. There was no ready-made meat.
“Go to the back of the mountain and hunt some game,” Nangong Li instructed.
“Yes.” The guard left feeling stifled. His hands, which were used to kill, were actually sent to hunt prey.
The guard spent ten minutes hunting a fat wild rabbit in the forest at the back of the mountain. The kitchen in the temple did not allow meat and fish, so he had no choice but to carry the wild rabbit to the small stream at the back of the mountain to clean it. He also lit a bonfire by the stream and roasted the wild rabbit until it smelled good before sending it to Consort Yun.
Nangong Li thought that he could finally have some peace and quiet, but after a while, the guard braced himself and came over.
“What is it this time?” Nangong Li asked in a deep voice.
The guard said, “Consort Yun said that there’s only meat and no wine.”
Nangong Li was stunned. “She still wants to drink?!”
The guard bowed his head.
Nangong Li suppressed his anger and waved his hand. “Forget it. There’s a jar of good Huadiao in my carriage. Take it to her.”
“Yes.” The guard obeyed.
Consort Yun rolled up her sleeves and stepped on a stool with one foot. She began her carefree life of eating meat and drinking wine in the meditation room. However, it was a little naive to think that this could satisfy her.
Nangong Li looked coldly at the guard who rushed into his meditation room for the third time. “Speak!”
The guard did not dare to say it. He was so anxious that he was about to cry. Why wasn’t he the one patrolling today? If he had known earlier, he would have rather run himself to death than guard this hot potato!
The guard said fearfully, “Her Highness said… said…”
Nangong Li’s eyes turned cold. “What did she say? Don’t stammer!”
The guard closed his eyes and straightened his neck. “Her Highness said that after she’s full and warm, she wants Your Highness to find a man for her.”
Nangong Li almost fell to the ground! What did that shameless woman want? A man? Had she forgotten her identity? Even if she was not the Empress of a country, she was still the concubine of the Emperor! Moreover, he was her nominal imperial grandson. How could she say this to a junior?
Nangong Li was so angry that his heart ached. He covered his chest with his hand and said, “Go tell her that there isn’t one!”
The guard left. After a while, the guard returned dejectedly. Nangong Li picked up the stool on the ground and almost couldn’t help but knock the guard away. Of course, he still held it in with his good upbringing. He took a deep breath and asked calmly, “What happened to her again?”
The guard’s scalp was extremely stiff as he said, “Her Highness said that if there’s no man, she can accept a woman.”
Nangong Li : “…”
Nangong Li: “!!!”
Nangong Li was so angry that he was half dead. He had never interacted with Consort Yun before and had only heard about her misdeeds from the palace servants. She caused a ruckus every two to three days and caused a mess in the harem. He thought that the palace servants deliberately spread rumors about her to please the Empress.
After tonight, he understood that the rumors had already shown mercy to Consort Yun. If he was the Emperor, he would not like this woman either. It was too infuriating!!! If it were any other concubine, it would be suitable to charge her with “infidelity” to achieve the goal of attacking her and her descendants. However, this plan did not work on Consort Yun.
Because—
Consort Yun wanted to make the Emperor a cuckold every day!
She had been abandoned by her family and her child had been taken away. Her husband had never doted on her. She had nothing to lose. If she was discovered to have an affair, she would die at most. She was not afraid of death.
She could smile in the netherworld when she disgusted the Emperor before she died.
Nangong Li clenched his fists tightly. “Go tell her that if she dares to cause trouble again, I’ll do as she wishes! I’ll give her a man! I wonder if the news of the honored consort having an affair will embarrass the Eldest Princess!”
The guard truthfully relayed his prince’s threat. Not long after, he returned while covering the bump on his head. “Her Highness said that if you dare to tell on her that she had an affair, she’ll tell the Emperor that you’re also one of the adulterers!”
Nangong Li, who had vomited three liters of blood: “…!!”
