Chapter 2: You only have one life, but there are more than one life-threatening

things Cheng Jin complained bitterly. The original owner relied on her family's power and influence, and was an important official in the court.

She was determined to compete with the heroine, who was of a lower position than her. She was wronged for no reason, and she tried her best to clear her name, even making a scene at the banquet in the evening.

She happened to kneel in front of Chu Chengye, and saw a sword flying at her. Chu Chengye used her to block the arrow, causing her to be unconscious for several days.

The sword was poisoned, and although she didn't die, the original owner also suffered from a lifelong disability.

Her father wanted justice for her and an explanation. This tyrant hated others to repay favors the most, and because Cheng Yishou loved to commit crimes against his superiors in the court, he was demoted.

It was hard for Cheng Yishou to swear to protect Chu Chengye to death before he was captured, and even died in front of Chu Chengye.

If they met again, Cheng Jin would persuade her father not to meddle in the affairs of this tyrant, so as to avoid the death of her family without any benefit.

This is simply unjust.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jin bowed to Chu Chengye again, "Your Majesty, it is all my fault. I was bewitched by the devil and did such a stupid thing."

Now, I have to stay as far away from this tyrant as possible.

Cheng Jin raised her head at the right time and found that Chu Chengye's eyes were staring at her without moving, but his brows were furrowed deeper.

Chu Chengye knew that his throne was not legitimate, and his style of doing things was also fierce and violent. There were many people who couldn't stand him.

However, he really didn't expect that his confidants actually wanted to kill him, and before he died, it was the Cheng Taifu whom he hated the most who stood in front of him.

But now there are so many people in the palace, and the evening banquet has invited many brother warriors who fought with him at that time.

Which one of them would be so cruel to him?

Chu Chengye couldn't figure it out, and glanced at Cheng Jin in front of him.

He didn't have the ability to predict the future, but the person in front of him did.

No matter how she knew these things, it seemed that every word she said was reasonable and not made up. Although it should not be believed, it must be guarded against.

Cheng Jin wanted to continue to add fuel to the fire so that Chu Chengye could convict her, "I feel that I can be exempted from the death penalty, but I can't escape the living crime. Why don't I..."

Only a moment later, the little eunuch who had just gone out came back.

Wei An had indeed found a piece of paper by the lake just now, but before he could take a closer look, the maid who suddenly came in crushed it in the lake, and his original appearance could not be seen.

This maid was a member of Qu Wanxin's palace, and her panicked look really seemed like she had done something shameful, which was exactly what Cheng Jin said.

He leaned over and whispered something in Chu Chengye's ear, and Chu Chengye gave a look to the eunuch next to him, who then stepped forward and slapped the maid.

"You are lying, and you dare to wrongly accuse the imperial concubine. Tell me! Who instructed you to do this?"

The maid staggered and fell to the ground after being hit, and then she knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

"Your Majesty, I am very clear-sighted. I am not lying. I still have the concubine's personal belongings on me. I picked them up by the lake that day."

The little palace maid trembled as she took out a jade pendant from her arms. Upon closer inspection, the word "Cheng" carved on it was particularly eye-catching. It really looked like Cheng Jin's thing. Was

it waiting for me?

Cheng Jin curled her lips slightly.

[Just look at this thing. One by one, you are silent.]

[Who am I to use this kind of jade as a personal belonging?]

It was this so-called personal belonging in the book that confirmed Cheng Jin's accusation against Qu Wanxin. Cheng Jin's jade pendant was indeed lost, but I don't know if the person who handed it over was stupid or foolish.

Instead of taking the real thing, she made a replica. The jade materials used were all inferior, which can be seen at a glance.

The eunuch handed the item to Chu Chengye, and his fingers gently rubbed the jade pendant.

As expected, it didn't look like the jade material that aristocratic families would use, which showed that every word he heard from Cheng Jin was true.

Then, Chu Chengye's eyes fell on Cheng Jin.

Although Cheng Jin knew that there was something wrong with the jade pendant, she didn't say a word, pretending to be uneasy and pretending to deny it.

"No, this is not my jade pendant. How could my jade pendant be with you?"

Cheng Jin thought she acted fake enough, and was completely in a guilty state.

Who knew that Chu Chengye in front of him suddenly laughed a few times, making a full-bodied voice.

"Okay, since Concubine Rong said it's not hers, then it's not hers."

Cheng Jin: "???"

Ah?

Trust me so

much? What if I'm talking nonsense?

"Someone, drag this slave who framed Concubine Rong out and beat her to death!"

The word "beat her to death" made Cheng Jin's legs go weak.

Oh my god, he is indeed a tyrant.

Human lives are like ants in his hands.

But what is going on in the plot now? Why does this tyrant trust her so much?

According to the plot, shouldn't she be dragged out now?

She had already planned to pretend to struggle a few times so that she could be carried away. She

remembered that her bedroom described in the book was quite far from the cold palace. It's better

to make others suffer than to make yourself suffer.

After thinking about this, Cheng Jin looked at Chu Chengye with some helplessness and continued to quibble:

"Your Majesty, although I was wronged, I am the only one in the harem with Hui Gui. I am also responsible for her being pushed into the lake."

"I know I made a mistake, so why don't I just stay in this palace and think about my mistakes?"

Although I can't go to the cold palace, it is better to retreat and not go anywhere in the palace than to go out and be a human shield for the tyrant.

What this tyrant hates most is that the women around him cause trouble and give him a headache.

【Is it my turn? Is it my turn? 】

Chu Chengye listened to Cheng Jin's thoughts with a dark look on his face, and waved her to get up.

"Since you already know you're wrong, then..."

[Isolate, isolate, reflect, reflect.]

When Cheng Jin heard Chu Chengye speak, she was already shouting in her heart.

"Forget it, accompany me to the Yamato Palace tonight to attend the banquet."

Cheng Jin's face, which was originally a little excited, fell in an instant.

At the banquet tonight, although the sword described in the book could not kill her, the poison on the sword would become a sequelae that would follow her for half her life.

Cheng Jin has nothing to live for:

those who can't kill me might as well kill me directly.

Cheng Jin wanted to fight again, "I heard that the emperor specially set up a celebration banquet for the generals and soldiers who fought in the war. How can I go?"

Chu Chengye did not give Cheng Jin any room to refuse.

"Go if I say so."

Cheng Jin's mouth twitched slightly.

[Hahahaha, so domineering.]

[There is only one life, but there are more than one life-threatening things.]

[Do you really want me to go? Believe it or not, I will go crazy and kill you, and we will die together.]
