The air seemed to freeze. Rong Ruo's slender fingers tapped on the table, one tap after another. Yuan Zhao felt that Rong Ruo wasn't tapping the table, but rather tapping on her heart.
The tapping motion quickened, revealing that Rong Ruo was becoming somewhat impatient.
Yuan Zhao took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying:
"Why ask, Chief Supervisor?"
"Even the kids on the street know that the Eunuch is not a good person."
This was already her most tactful way of putting it.
You should know that in private, the court officials and the common people cursed him with the most vile words, using all sorts of filthy language to insult Rong Ruo.
Even though he tried to be tactful, Yuan Zhao felt that he was doomed to die today.
Her only hope was her own blood, and she hoped that Rong Ruo would consider sparing her life, since her blood could alleviate the cold poison in his body.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard Rong Ruo laugh.
Yuan Zhao couldn't help but look up and saw a joyful smile on Rong Ruo's face. It wasn't the usual forced smile, but a genuinely joyful one.
Rong Ruo was already handsome, and when he smiled, all the colors in the world paled in comparison. Even Yuan Zhao was momentarily stunned, captivated by his smile.
However, she quickly came to her senses, her mind filled with the rumors.
Rumor has it that Rongruo gained the emperor's trust so much because he slept with the emperor.
She didn't believe it before, but now she's somewhat more convinced.
She felt that no one, regardless of age or gender, could resist Rong Ruo's charm.
Rong Ruo's smile lasted a long time before gradually fading. He said with amusement:
"Not a good person! You're being tactful."
"Why don't you just say that I am a ruthless killer, a reincarnated demon, and utterly devoid of conscience?"
As he spoke, he gave himself another pleasant smile.
madman!
Yuan Zhao looked at Rong Ruo with a complicated expression.
She had never met anyone more insane than Rong Ruo.
He seems to actually enjoy the insults directed at him.
Just as he was thinking this, Rong Ruo suddenly changed the subject and said:
"So, now that you know what kind of person I am, what are you prepared to offer in exchange?"
Yuan Zhao was taken aback, then understood his meaning. She opened her mouth to speak, but Rong Ruo raised his hand to interrupt her:
"Your body, your blood, have already been traded once. Do you think I'm stupid to try and trade the same things with me a second time?"
Yuan Zhao choked for a moment before speaking:
"In that case, I really don't know what I can offer in exchange for the Chief Eunuch."
Silver? Judging from the things this scoundrel usually uses, she knows he's not short of money. Just the decorations in his room alone are worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. She doesn't think he would be interested in her little bit of money.
Power? She has even less of that.
A beauty? Not to mention that Rong Ruo is crippled and can't be used at all, even if he could, the two maids he gave him were top-notch in appearance, and she couldn't find anyone more beautiful than them.
For a moment, Yuan Zhao was truly at a loss.
"My lord, I never expected this."
"Please give your instructions, Supervisor."
Yuan Zhao gave up.
The main problem is that Rong Ruo was not a normal person, and we cannot think about him using the same logic as a normal person.
Therefore, Yuan Zhao didn't bother with the more convenient option and asked directly.
Seeing her listless appearance, Rong Ruo raised his eyelids, glanced at her, and said indifferently:
"I will give you three days."
"If you can get out within three days, she will live."
"If you can't figure it out, you'll die with her!"
