Chapter 216: Borrowing a Knife to Kill
Luo Ranran looked Xie Gong up and down, her soft little face full of disdain.
"You? You have nothing, and you have lost more than half of your life. What on earth can you use to negotiate with this princess?"
"I..." Xie Gong's throat tightened and he quickly lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Luo Ranran. After all, he didn't have the confidence to negotiate with Luo Ranran.
Besides, he is now a prisoner, and his life or death depends on Luo Ranran's decision.
He was really unwilling to die like this!
With a thump, Xie Gong fell to his knees, knocking his head hard on the ground, and solemnly requested: "Princess Zhaoyang, please, I really want to kill Xie Yanli myself to avenge my family. If I can't, I will die with my eyes open!"
Luo Ranran took a few steps back, leaning on her waist, "It's no use begging me, the princess, unless..."
"Unless what?" Xie Gong quickly raised his head and looked at Luo Ranran with burning eyes, a strong desire bursting out of his eyes.
Luo Ranran's eyes flashed with cunning, and she stated her purpose directly, "Unless you personally go and get rid of all of Xie Yanli's forces and his people, this request is not difficult for you!"
[Xie Gong is Xie Yanli's most trusted confidant. Xie Gong knows everything about him and is personally involved in it. 】
[Xie Yanli was a hostage and could not leave the imperial city, so he sent Xie Gong to help him build connections, and his influence gradually expanded. 】
[It can be said that Xie Gong played a significant role in this, and he did so without any selfish motives of his own. 】
Xie Gong listened to Naituanzi's inner voice and couldn't help mocking himself.
He is such a fool!
"Princess Zhaoyang, I agree with your request. I hope you can keep your word."
Luo Ranran changed her naughty look and imitated the officials in the court, with one hand behind her back and the other hand lightly touching her chin, looking very shrewd and calculating.
"Well, this princess always keeps her word, so you can go with peace of mind! When the matter is done, it will be time for you to kill Xie Yanli with your own hands."
Go with peace of mind! ! !
The corners of Xie Gong's mouth couldn't stop twitching. He was not dead yet!
"Princess, but I, cough cough..." Xie Gong suppressed the speechlessness in his heart, covered his chest with a painful look on his face, and returned to his previous weak state.
He weakly but respectfully asked Luo Ranran, "Princess Zhaoyang, I am now covered in wounds and it is difficult for me to even walk. Can you please give me some medicine?"
"Even if you don't ask me for help, I will give you medicine to heal your injuries." Luo Ranran was not surprised and took out a half-black and half-white pill from the little tiger's purse.
"Hey, eat it and your body will return to normal."
[Alas, if you want the horse to run, you have to let it eat grass. Although I am happy to see Xie Gong's miserable appearance, how can he deal with Xie Yanli's forces in this state? 】
Xie Gong: “…”
Listen to me saying thank you, because you warm the four seasons...
But this pill is so strange, and is its effect really that strong? Could it be a magic pill?
Seeing the hesitant Xie Gong, Lu Shamo jumped out and said, "Hey, if you didn't give me the food, I would have coveted the princess's elixir. Unfortunately, the elixir is extremely precious. The princess will not give us the elixir unless it is absolutely necessary."
After saying that, Lu Momo's eyes glowed green, as if he was about to pounce on it and bite it fiercely in the next second.
Xie Gong was startled and quickly stuffed the pill into his mouth. Then, he could clearly feel the changes in his body.
You can also see the wounds on your body with the naked eye, and repair them as quickly as possible until they return to normal.
Oh my god!
Xie Gong's breathing was rapid, his eyes almost popped out of his head in shock, and his mouth was wide open as if he wanted to swallow a chicken in one gulp.
It turns out that what Princess Zhaoyang said was true, this elixir is truly magical.
After his injuries were completely healed, Xie Gong jumped up, then knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and thanked Luo Ranran solemnly.
"Thank you, Princess Zhaoyang, for the medicine. I am very grateful. Don't worry, I will do everything I promised you. I only ask that Princess Zhaoyang don't let Xie Yanli die."
No matter what, we have to keep him alive and wait for him to take revenge himself.
"Yeah." Luo Ranran nodded her head, "This princess agrees to your request. Okay, it's getting late, so go with peace of mind and try to go and come back early."
"After all, Xie Yanli is in a state of barely surviving now. He really won't live much longer. This princess will not waste her medicine on him."
"I think you don't want to give my medicine to this kind of beast!"
Xie Gong: “…”
"Yes, the princess knows my intention very well."
What else could he say besides this?
After Xie Gong left, Ji Linran was worried. Looking at Luo Ranran, who was full of energy and jumping around playing, he sighed.
"Princess, Xie Gong is a vicious and cruel man who has killed countless people, but he has no credibility. Aren't you afraid that he will escape and hide away and never come out again?"
The others nodded in agreement.
Luo Ranran chuckled and glanced at everyone, "Everyone, don't worry, Xie Gong's character is rubbish, I'm not stupid enough to believe in his character."
"As for that pill, although it cured his injuries, it also left him with an untreatable poison."
"He can only live for three months at most, then he will turn into a pool of blood and die. No matter how ambitious he is, it will be useless."
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all raised their thumbs and kept flattering the little ginseng spirit.
"Princess, in terms of intelligence, you are the one who is most harmful."
"Princess, you are resourceful and resourceful. No one can escape your sharp eyes."
“…”
Everyone praised him for a while, then changed the subject and asked, "Princess, aren't you afraid that Xie Gong will not follow your request and deal with Xie Yanli's forces?"
Luo Ranran shrugged indifferently.
"Don't be afraid. Xie Gong has a strong desire for revenge. What he hates most in his life is that he was castrated and turned into a eunuch."
“So, all those who castrated him back then were killed by him, but he never expected that the culprit was Xie Yanli.”
At this point, Naituanzi couldn't help laughing, "I revealed the truth about their family's tragic death. Now he hates Xie Yanli the most."
"Even if he can't kill Xie Yanli himself, he will destroy his forces one by one, or he will win over these forces."
"But, these forces had already reluctantly submitted to Xie Yanli due to various threats. Now that Xie Yanli has been arrested, they are too happy to be lured by Xie Gong."
"So, the result of using a knife to kill someone is either both sides will suffer losses, or those forces will be wiped out by Xie Gong, or Xie Gong will be killed by them."
"No matter what the result is, for us, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Anyway, we don't need to waste a single soldier, and we only lose a pill."
Everyone was full of admiration for what Naituanzi said.
"Princess, when it comes to being smart, you are the best."
Look, this kind of scheming and strategy is not something that ordinary people can do.
