Nanzhi sensed the danger, quickly released her grip, covered her wound, and feigned deep affection: "Your Majesty, I have long admired you. It is my honor to shield you from this sword today. Even if I die, I will still bless Your Majesty..."
Nanzhi deliberately blocked the sword to tell him that she had saved his life.
Xiao Lanchuan indeed looked at her wound.
Her wound was above her chest, and it was still bleeding. She felt that she was about to die, and the bleeding was almost gone.
Xiao Lanchuan looked at her and said quietly, "You admire me?"
Nanzhi was surprised that he was so good at grasping the key points. Just as she was about to reply, she heard a wail.
She turned around and saw the captured assassin having his limbs severed by the guards.
The scene was extremely bloody, with severed limbs scattered everywhere.
Even though Nanzhi has experienced many dimensions, none of them have been as exciting as the scene before him.
She opened her eyes wide and felt her heart start to hurt again.
Xiao Lanchuan smiled.
His smile is so beautiful, it's almost mesmerizing.
If it weren't for the gleaming silver dagger in his hand, gently lifting her chin...
"Do you still admire me?"
Nanzhi fainted again.
I'm really dizzy this time.
Half of it was because she was frightened by Xiao Lanchuan, and the other half was because she lost too much blood.
When she woke up, she was in a huge palace.
Her mouth was so dry it felt like it was on fire. There was no one in the hall, so she got up and poured herself a glass of cold water.
[We've found out! We've transmigrated into the wrong body. This is Xiao Lanchuan's second life. He's been reborn and has now become a psychopathic tyrant, preparing to take down Xiao Jingyi...]
The system was almost crying with guilt.
Nanzhi was almost in tears from the headache.
She rubbed her forehead, frowned, and smiled wryly: "003, really."
[Little Twig, I have two free potions here, you can have them, please don't be angry anymore, okay?]
Nanzhi looked at the twin potion and the good figure potion that 003 showed her.
Well, considering they're all potions suitable for palace intrigue, she decided not to make a fuss.
She had just taken a sip of cold water when she suddenly heard a sentence.
"How pitiful! Why is no one serving my savior?"
Nanzhi was startled.
Turning around, she saw Xiao Lanchuan, dressed in casual clothes, standing behind her, looking incredibly handsome. He was enjoying watching her pale face with great interest.
"Why is your face still so pale?"
As he spoke, he looked outside and called out, "Jiang Fulai, go and kill that quack doctor Chen Weizhi."
Nanzhi was so startled that she almost dropped the cup in her hand.
He kills people at the drop of a hat; how far has he gone into darkness?
"Your Majesty, I'm fine. I just... I drank the water too quickly."
"Oh?" Xiao Lanchuan narrowed his eyes at her. "Are you speaking up for Chen Weizhi?"
Nan Zhi couldn't understand the tyrant's thoughts at all, and she was somewhat bewildered: "No, it's not."
Xiao Lanchuan stared at her with a deep gaze, his tone gentle: "Then I'll chop Chen Weizhi up and use him as fertilizer for you?"
Nan Zhi had a gut feeling that if she dared to refuse, not only Chen Weizhi would die, but also her.
She pursed her lips, curtsied, and thanked him, saying, "Thank you for your great kindness, Your Majesty."
Xiao Lanchuan then smiled and gently helped her up: "I don't want my savior to care about others."
He exuded a cold and dangerous aura that enveloped her.
This was the first time Nanzhi had ever encountered such a crazy person.
She regrets confessing her feelings so early. Can she take it back?
The tyrant gently stroked her long hair, admiring her trembling body, and casually uttered another remark.
"Oh, by the way, the palace servants in the palace have been serving me poorly, so I've decided to kill them all. Do you want to do it yourself?"
Nanzhi wanted to plead for them, but the time wasn't right.
She looked at the palace servants kneeling in a row begging for mercy, her expression somewhat complicated.
Xiao Lanchuan handed her a dagger, grabbed her wrist, and led her to a eunuch: "These damned servants actually made you personally pour water. Kill them, and you will be the master of this palace."
Nan Zhi felt the icy chill of the dagger and looked at the little eunuch who was so frightened he was about to wet his pants. Suddenly, she felt a little helpless.
"You wouldn't dare?" Seemingly sensing her fear, the tyrant chuckled, "If you say you no longer admire me, I won't let you kill me."
Meeting his ambiguous gaze, Nanzhi felt like she had dug herself a huge hole.
She hesitated for a moment, her eyes reddening, and then she said with a forced smile, "But this servant admires Your Majesty and will never change my mind."
The smile on Xiao Lanchuan's lips gradually froze.
The girl's head was wrapped in bandages, and her face was covered in blood from yesterday; she looked extremely ugly.
Only now did he realize that she had a fair and delicate face, and her red eyes looked like a rabbit's, making her appear soft and vulnerable.
But she spoke with great determination and was not frightened into tears.
Xiao Lanchuan became somewhat interested.
For a long time now, no one in the harem has dared to say they admire him.
He curled his lips into a smile: "What's your name?"
It turns out he didn't even know her name.
Nanzhi was speechless as she looked at his 1% favorability rating.
That kid has a heart of stone.
"My original name was Nanzhi, but everyone likes to call me Zhizhi."
Xiao Lanchuan: "It's a nice name. I have a pet mouse named Squeaky."
Nanzhi: She really thanked him.
As he left, he hooked his arm around her chin and added expectantly.
"It's been a long time since anyone has admired me. You must admire me for a long time and live a long life."
Xiao Lanchuan finally left.
The palace servants inside the palace were not killed, but a young palace maid who was responsible for guarding the southern branch but neglected her post was beaten to death.
