Chang Rui chatted with the Empress Dowager for quite a while, ranging from talking about the people to his relationship with Nangong Li.
If you only hear the conversation, people will be able to feel that the Empress Dowager is a grandmother who is very attentive to her grandchildren and grandchildren's wives.
But, to the wary Chang Rui, every word of the Empress Dowager was full of traps. Thus, for every question, Chang Rui did not dare to answer with a rush.
Chang Rui had to thank her abundant experience when it came to facing such a troublesome person as the Empress Dowager.
"It's late in the afternoon, this granddaughter will be saying goodbye from before the Empress Dowager. Please wear thicker clothes at times like this, because this winter is longer. " Say
Chang Rui's.
"Wait a minute. " The Empress Dowager stopped Chang Rui.
"Because you have come a long way and given me a good item, it is not suitable for you to return empty-handed. Ah - Bing, take note of my orders. " Said the Empress Dowager.
"Yes, Madam. " Say Ah - Bing, the maid of the Empress Dowager.
"Give 20 gold jewels, 50 jade jewels, 30 finest silk scrolls, half a kilogram of kuan yin tea, then the last one is 1,000 Taels. " Said the Empress Dowager.
"Thank you for the kindness of the Empress Dowager. " Chang Rui bowed to the Empress Dowager.
"Wake up, these are all just gifts I should have given you. " The Empress Dowager helped Chang Rui kowtow.
Chang Rui gave a full smile and tears welled up in his eyes, then he said a few other things.
After exiting the Empress Dowager's residence, her expression became flat and she wiped away her fake tears.
This Nangong Li... really made him furious !
Now that thousands of taels had flowed into Nangong Li's place, the man would definitely smile widely then suddenly become flat again.
Just the thought of her alone made Chang Rui feel tired, both physically and mindfully.
Nangong Li truly knew how to defeat her to the point she had to beg others for the man !!
"Miss, are you upset ?" Ask Qinlin.
"No." Chang Rui replied lying.
Chang Rui was not used to saying what he felt to others, not even Qinlin or Qiaoling.
Chang Rui returned with the Imperial horse carriage and his feelings were very different, even impressing very comfortable.
Chang Rui leaned his head and back against the wall of the horse carriage decorated by the finest silk cloth.
That bastard Nangong Li had actually pranked him by giving such a bad horse carriage.
Chang Rui instantly realized, why was it that almost every event then he would think of Nangong Li ? This is no good.
Arriving at Jiu Wang's residence, there the servant had received many items that had been obtained by him.
"Wangfei, sir is waiting for you in his room. " Said Long Yu.
Chang Rui nodded and ran into Nangong Li's residence then started crying and kneeling beside Nangong Li's bed.
The man was lying weakly with a pulse that was being examined by the Qin Imperial Physician.
"What about Wangye's condition ?" Chang Rui asked with deep sadness.
"Huft, Wangfei, Jiu Wang need to rest for a long time. This healer would prescribe a medicine that Jiu Wang had to take every 3 times a day. " Trial Physician of the Qin Empire.
"Thank you, Physician of the Qin Empire. This kindness I can never repay. " Chang Rui said.
"Wangfei may stand, however serving the Imperial family is my duty. Now, I will go out and Wangfei can accompany Jiu Wang. " Trial Physician of the Qin Empire.
"Thank you, thank you very much, Physician of the Qin Empire !"Chang Rui cried with haru.
Upon learning that the Qin Imperial Physician had left, Chang Rui's cries completely stopped and Chang Rui wiped his eyes violently.
Crying for quite a long time made him sick, not only was it that even his face became sore.
"Wangye, there's no point in continuing to maintain that sick face of yours. The Imperial Physician has left, to whom are you going to show off that face ?" Chang Rui asked indifferently.
"Hm, your work is pretty good. But, there's less, it's okay. There are still plenty of opportunities to do so again in the future. " Said Nangong Li shamelessly.
Chang Rui suppressed his emotions and forced himself to keep smiling then looked at Nangong Li fiercely.
"Wangye is indeed full of ideas, now I will not discuss this with you anymore. " Chang Rui said with suppressed anger.
"If you don't talk about this anymore, then what do you want to talk to me about ? Our marriage ? Or do you want to have a child ? Sorry, but I'm not interested. " Nangong Li really knew how to make people angry.
"Wangye, it's not good to be too confident like that. Do you really think I want that ? " Task Chang Rui with a horrible smile.
Chang Rui's current expression was very dark as if he wanted to swallow Nangong Li into a rage.
It was just that Chang Rui knew that anger would not be good for health and Nangong Li was not worthy of harming the health he had so painstakingly obtained.
"Did Wangye know something about Eunuch Han and Eunuch Jiu ? " Task Chang Rui.
Hearing this made Nangong Li smile thinly and unhurriedly to answer Chang Rui's question, as if not enthusiastic about the question.
"What do you expect from a sick Prince like me ? After my eldest brother ascends the throne then I will become a rich and unemployed Imperial uncle. " Answer Nangong Li.
Nangong Li's answer was obvious, it meant that the man did not want to interfere in the affairs of the Palace. But, Chang Rui knew that this was only the man's alibi.
"People like me would believe that Wangye is a gentle person and without ambition, but what about the Crown Prince ? Will he think the same ?" Chang Rui asked gently.
Nangong Li who heard this laughed and clapped before finally his face instantly turned flat again, as if he had never laughed and clapped before.
Chang Rui stretched out his hand and touched Nangong Li's face with hair covering his nose.
"As your personal physician, then I should ask you to tell me the truth more. If you are angry then you should be red and if you are happy then you should laugh. Wangye always bore everything at an ambiguous boundary, it would definitely not be convenient for you. " Chang Rui said with pity.
Nangong Li held down Chang Rui's hand and looked towards Chang Rui's eyes with a sharp look.
"What rights do you have to feel sorry for me ? You can't even save your own life. " Said Nangong Li then threw Chang Rui's hand away.
Chang Rui who got this kind of rough treatment did not get angry and even laughed lightly then looked at his flushed wrist but did nothing.
The pain in his wrist still left a remnant but did not bother Chang Rui at all.
"Of course, Wangye should know if you die at a young age, then not only you will die then so will I. Even if there is no grand order in your residence to follow the death of Husband, the Palace will definitely not let go of me if you die easily. " Chang Rui said with a sneer.
"How many palace concubines were buried alive to show their loyalty to the late Emperor ?" Ask Chang Rui.
Nangong Li who heard this smiled then reached out and gripped Chang Rui's chin.
"So, don't you want to die with me and play with me in death ?" Ask Nangong Li.
"Wangye..... What is good about playing in death ? "Ask Chang Rui gently.
Nangong Li's rough hands felt very odd on Chang Rui's delicate skin, Nangong Li's thumb stroked Chang Rui's lips gently.
"This lips, very pretty and sharp. You can fool anyone with these lips. " Said Nangong Li.
Chang Rui smiled faintly and unhurriedly replied Nangong Li said.
"Thank you for the compliment, Wangye. Rui'er, will definitely not forget this in the future. " Chang Rui said then forcibly broke away.
Nangong Li died of reddish marks around the spot where Nangong Li gripped Chang Rui's chin.
