Chapter 3099 I Want to Know How You Will Die
Nan Yan's heartbeat became heavier.
Zhu Chengjin looked at her coldly and said, "Speak!"
“…”
The huge Wuying Palace was suddenly plunged into a suffocating silence, as if even people's breathing and heartbeats could be heard. Du Duo'er, who was following behind Nan Yan, had never seen such a scene before. She only knew that the two people in front of her could control her life and death, especially the moody and murderous Zhu Chengjin. Seeing his face change, it was like seeing an evil demon Shura.
Duo'er was so frightened that she started to tremble and subconsciously took a step back.
At this time, who would dare to lie in front of him?
Just as Duo'er was looking at Nan Yan's back with cold sweat, wondering how she would respond, she heard Nan Yan seem to chuckle.
Then he said coldly: "I have said everything I need to say. If you want me to say anything more, then be prepared to be deceived by me."
Duo'er's back was covered with goose bumps.
When Zhu Chengjin heard this, he also frowned.
Nan Yan sneered, looked up at him, and raised her eyebrows at him as if to challenge him: "Well, do you want to listen?"
Zhu Chengjin narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You mean, you're telling the truth?"
"What else?"
“…”
"Or did you hear some 'truth'?"
“…”
"If that's the case, then why are you asking me? Wouldn't it be easier to just do what you're supposed to do?"
Zhu Chengjin's face was gloomy, and his pair of eyes filled with haze were staring at Nan Yan, like a ferocious beast hiding in the grass. As long as the person in front of him showed a little flaw, he would immediately jump out and bite Nan Yan's throat fiercely.
However, Nan Yan just treated him coldly from beginning to end, without showing any uneasiness or anxiety.
Zhu Chengjin looked at her for a long time and suddenly laughed.
Nan Yan asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Zhu Chengjin did not answer her immediately, but stretched out his hand. The eunuch serving behind him immediately stepped forward and served him a bowl of soup. He took the bowl and drank two mouthfuls with relish. It was a medicinal soup that had been simmered for a whole night, and it was fragrant. However, because Nan Yan was only focused on Zhu Chengjin when she just came in, she didn't notice anything on the table.
At this moment, Zhu Chengjin drank two mouthfuls of soup as if enjoying it, and then he said slowly after savoring the taste: "It's nothing."
“…”
"I was just wondering, after seeing your—loyal subordinate, can you still smile?"
Nan Yan's brows suddenly frowned.
Tingfu? What happened to Tingfu?
She was about to ask, but Zhu Chengjin lowered his head to drink his soup and said lazily, "Bring the person in."
Immediately, footsteps were heard outside.
Nan Yan quickly turned her head and saw two burly men - obviously Zhu Chengjin's jailers, dragging a figure that was almost not in human form from outside. They threw the figure to the ground, and the figure fell limply to the ground like a hollowed-out sack.
"Listen to Fu!"
Nan Yan took a look and hurriedly got up and walked over.
Tingfu was covered in blood and his hair was disheveled. It was obvious that he had been tortured a lot that night, but he was still conscious. He raised his head and looked at Nanyan with a pair of bloodshot and swollen eyes. There was blood at the corners of his mouth, but he made an expression that looked like a smile to her.
"Listen to the blessing..."
Nan Yan's heart was broken when she saw him like this.
Although she knew that he would suffer and even lose his life if he followed her this time, Nan Yan still felt a pain in her heart when she saw him like this.
She reached out to support Tingfu's soft and dirty body, and with one hand she lifted his messy hair.
"How are you?"
Tingfu didn't say anything, just smiled at her.
Nan Yan felt something was wrong. Even his breathing was very light. He hurriedly asked again, "What's wrong with you?"
Tingfu still pursed his lips tightly and smiled at her.
But tears were falling from his eyes, washing the blood on his face into streaks. Nan Yan felt something was wrong and immediately reached out to pry his jaw open. Tingfu whimpered twice, but he had no strength left. After all, Nan Yan saw him.
His tongue is gone.
His mouth was a mess of blood and flesh.
"ah!"
Duo'er, who had followed to help him, screamed in fear when she saw this, and Nan Yan's whole body froze and her eyes turned red.
"Tingfu, your tongue, you—"
She gritted her teeth and turned around to glare at Zhu Chengjin, who was still slowly drinking his soup, completely unaffected by the tragic scene before him. Zhu Chengjin raised his eyebrows slightly, met Nan Yan's angry gaze, and smiled, "Don't look at me."
“…”
"I didn't have him cut. I want him to speak, how can I make him mute?"
“…”
"It was him. As soon as he woke up in prison, before he could be tortured, he bit off his tongue. Tsk tsk, how could a woman like you make your subordinates so loyal to you?"
Hot tears suddenly welled up in Nan Yan's eyes.
She was almost about to cry, but she gritted her teeth and endured it, looking at Tingfu with heartache: "You——"
Tingfu covered his mouth tightly and reached out to pat Nanyan's hand carefully.
I volunteered.
He no longer had the ability to speak, but he could express this to Nan Yan with his eyes, his actions, and everything else.
Nan Yan took a deep breath, stood up and said to Zhu Chengjin: "I need medicine, a doctor, and someone to treat his injuries."
Zhu Chengjin asked, "Is such a lowly servant worth it?"
Nan Yan still stared at him coldly.
Zhu Chengjin laughed again and said, "Well, even though he didn't say anything, he still has some guts. If he really had told everything last night, then now you would only have his corpse to look at."
Tingfu looked up at him, with a hint of pity in his eyes.
Being betrayed, or even just the act of "betrayal", was like a poisonous thorn stuck in Zhu Chengjin's heart, now making his entire heart filled with malice and viciousness.
Zhu Chengjin lazily ordered, "Come here, take this servant back to Yikun Palace and have someone treat her injuries."
Several people immediately came in from outside, carefully helped Tingfu up, and took him away.
Nan Yan stood at the door of Wuying Palace, watching Tingfu walking away, swallowed back her hot tears, then turned around and slowly walked to the table and sat down.
Zhu Chengjin has finished his soup.
He took a handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth casually, then said, "Why, what are you looking at me for?"
Nan Yan didn't say anything, just looked at him coldly.
Zhu Chengjin smiled and said, "Do you want to know which of the three strategies, best, middle, and worst, I would choose?"
Nan Yan said: "I really want to know."
“…”
"I want to know how you will die."
