Chapter 282 The Daughter of the Sinful Minister30
Xining rubbed his wrists with each other and let out a long breath. I didn’t expect that having my hands free would be such a blessing!
Xu Mian placed the flat yong beside him, took her hand, and began to massage her upwards from her wrist to her shoulders. The arms that were numb from the cramps have completely recovered.
When Xu Mian put his hands on both sides of her shoulders and kneaded them gently, it felt extremely comfortable, but it also made her scalp numb and her hairs standing on end.
She couldn't help but said: "Sir, it's okay, my little girl can't bear it."
Xu Mian was behind her, squeezing her shoulders, and his tone was still calm and calm: "If you can survive, I will carry you through the door with three matchmakers and six beauties, and a big red sedan chair."
Trembling all over, she vaguely tasted the words inside: "What if I die?"
After a while, Xu Mian stopped, leaned his head over, and whispered in her ear: "I will avenge you."
Word after word was passed into my ears. At this time, I could no longer feel the sensation on my shoulders. My whole body was numb, and cold sweat seeped out of every pore.
Who doesn't let her live? If there was only one person who could influence Xu Mian...the current emperor.
Jin Yiwei's eyes and ears were all over the place, so Xu Mian did not dare to speak loudly, not wanting the words to reach that person. There was only one person who could only whisper...
Xining turned around and looked at Xu Mian. Xu Mian's skin was fair and his porcelain face turned a little red under the red candle.
She took a deep breath: "Why does the emperor want to kill me?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Mian immediately hugged her and hugged her tightly... After a long time, he whispered in her ear like a confidant: "The emperor is just like the previous emperor. He is obsessed with golden elixirs, has deep erysipelas, and has an irritable temperament." , doesn’t trust anyone, he wants to make sure of my loyalty.”
Golden elixir is an elixir. It is said that if you take the elixir, you will be immune to all diseases and live forever. In fact, these elixirs are not the ones used in cultivating immortals at all. They are all made from mercury, lead sand, and sulfur. If you take it for a long time, the poisonous heat will be unbearable and your temper will become moody. If you don't eat it, you won't know. Once you eat it, you'll be dead. It's really like ascending to heaven and becoming an immortal.
The temptation of immortality was too great. At one time, one-fifth of the emperors died from taking elixirs. They were only thirty or forty years old when they died, but the emperors still flocked to it.
Even though the late emperor became suspicious after taking the elixir and believed rumors that he wanted to depose the prince. After the prince, who is now the emperor, succeeded to the throne, he punished the alchemists who refined the elixirs, either killing them with sticks or banishing them. Unexpectedly, he repeated the same mistakes and began to commit suicide.
Now I finally understand and explain why Xu Mian is like this.
Xu Mian hugged her tightly like a treasure and rested his head on her shoulder. Judging from this level of intimacy, he should have feelings.
Mo Ming: "It seems you won't survive. Hurry up and sleep with him. No matter life or death, Xu Mian will definitely kill that dog emperor!"
Xining: "Ganggungun, you are trying to lie to me again, don't be fooled!"
Now her life was in the hands of the emperor... She couldn't wait to die, she had to work hard to create more chances to survive, and of course she couldn't sleep her way out.
Xining asked directly, without whispering, there was no harm in passing it to the emperor: "If you must die, will you do it yourself?" In fact, if the emperor wanted to see Xu Mian kill his beloved woman for him, would Xu Mian do it himself? It's the same.
Xu Mian still hugged her, rested his head on her shoulder, and made a nasal sound: "Yeah."
Instead, Xi Ning breathed a sigh of relief and hinted that this was good. If Xu Mian took action, the pain would be much less. On the other hand, he also said that he would rather die in Xu Mian's hands than others.
Xu Mian didn't even whisper. He spoke in a gentle and gentle voice as if he wanted to be heard: "The emperor is a wise king and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. This is my duty and I have to test it. If the emperor insists, as a minister, I must be loyal. If you fulfill your duties and die well, the Emperor will also remember you as being loyal and kind to the Gu family." Such brainwashing words, but that fool must like to hear them. Okay, let's cooperate!
Xi Ning could only choke up on purpose and raised her voice a little: "My lord is right, if the king wants his minister to die, he has to die. The Gu family has been loyal for generations, and it is my daughter's blessing to be loyal to the emperor. I only hope that after my daughter's death, sir, I will not If you are sad, marry a virtuous woman, and your daughter will be able to rest in peace even if she is under the Nine Springs.”
Xu Mian suddenly exhaled a burst of hot air from his nose, his body trembled slightly, and he almost stopped laughing.
Telling such sensational and disgusting lies is a last resort. Your life is the most important thing.
After a while, Xu Mian said slowly, but his calm words seemed unusually cautious and decisive: "If you die, I will not live and will go with you."
"Sir!" Shock...that was the feeling of the body owner.
Xi Ning is not that stupid, but Xu Mian said this, no matter whether it will come true later, it is all about saving her life, which is quite touching.
When these words reach the ears of the emperor, the emperor will know that the emperor has no choice but to do so. Xu Mianzhong will kill Gu Yuanxin, but he will die in love. The emperor only wanted to test Xu Mian, not to kill him.
If Xu Mian is forced to death, he will lose his right and left arm, and it will be too late to feel distressed.
It would be great to keep Gu Wanxin and be able to hold Xu Mian's hand in the future, so Gu Wanxin might as well not have to die!
Xu Mian slowly let go of her, held her shoulders with both hands, and sat face to face with her: "If the emperor is merciful, we will stay together for the rest of our lives. Xin'er, I said, I will live up to you!"
Then he slowly came closer to her ear: "No matter who you are..."
After speaking, he sat up straight and looked at her deeply. The deep look in his eyes was so sure that she doubted her life.
Xining was speechless for a moment and stared at Xu Mian blankly... Damn it, this guy is so powerful and smart, he is simply inhuman!
Mo Ming popped up again: "I'm telling you, I slept with him!"
It was true that all the problems were solved in one sleep. The relationship between the two had made a qualitative leap, which made the emperor believe that if he killed her, Xu Mian would die for his love.
Moreover, Xu Mian is sitting there. This posture is the most suitable for diving into his majestic and safe arms, and is very suitable for throwing himself into his arms. At this time, she is the most helpless, weakest, and most prone to Stockholm Syndrome. Any action she takes to seek comfort is normal and reasonable.
Xining gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said softly: "It's getting late, sir, you are busy with official work, please go and rest."
Xu Mian nodded: "Well, okay!"
Is this the case? Xi Ning was a little surprised. If he were an ordinary man, he would probably have counterattacked long ago and would wait until he went to sleep.
But when she saw Xu Mian taking out the long-chain handcuffs, the corners of Xining's mouth twitched slightly... She was almost fooled. If she was trusted, why should she be cuffed?
After Xu Mian handcuffed her hands and locked the long chain on the end of the handcuffs in the slot on the bedside, he whispered in her ear: "I feel sorry for you, and I will make up for it in the future."
It must have been done for the eyes of the spy, proving that Xu Mian was indeed imprisoning her, waiting for the emperor to retaliate.
Xining felt relieved again.
