Chapter 646 Not a Bad Person
Helian Yue was not entirely surprised that Xiang Tian was so straightforward.
Just from his understanding of Xiang Tian's experience and personality, he knew that he was not a cunning and scheming person. When he guessed that his identity might have been discovered long ago, he was even more disdainful of kneeling down and begging for mercy.
Being so frank, he actually thought highly of her.
Then the necessary process still needs to be followed.
"Oh? What crime have you committed?" Helian Yue asked lightly, but didn't care about his self-proclaimed identity at all. Xiang Tianxin was immediately certain that the emperor also knew about his identity a long time ago.
What's worse, the emperor was the one who knew everything from the beginning.
After calming down, Xiang Tian didn't look at Hua Yan again. He just took out a bag from his arms and put it on the ground.
"I am Xiang Tian, a native of Yonghe Town, Lancheng. A few days ago, I was entrusted by someone to sneak into the palace as a eunuch, waiting for an opportunity to put the Five-Stone Powder into the food of the Emperor and the Empress."
"I know that plotting to harm the emperor is a capital crime. I come here to plead guilty. I am willing to bear all the punishments. I only ask Your Majesty and Concubine Lang not to implicate others."
Xiang Tian did not say clearly who had asked him to do this. Even though he knew that Bai Qianqian might not be as innocent as she appeared, she had saved him after all. For this reason, he could not take the initiative to expose her.
This is moral.
Since he couldn't continue to work for her, at least he couldn't take the initiative to expose her.
Although Xiang Tian felt that even if he did not take the initiative to expose it, the emperor and the Concubine Lang in front of him should know who sent him.
Since he had said that, he was no longer afraid of death. The only thing he was worried about was that his crime would implicate Yan Yan.
Xiang Tian also entered the inner hall. After knowing that the person behind the scenes was the emperor, he secretly felt lucky that he went directly to Concubine Lang instead of rashly planning to escape from the palace with Yanyan.
Although he didn't like the feeling of putting his life in the hands of others, he had to think twice in order to save face for his parents.
It's a pity that with such an adopted brother like him, even if the emperor finally lets Yanyan go, I'm afraid Yanyan will still be dragged down by him...
After Xiang Tian finished saying what he needed to say, he thought to himself and waited for the judgment from the emperor.
However, neither Helian Yue nor Si Linglong said anything for a long time. Just when Xiang Tian couldn't help wanting to look up, he saw a chubby little hand suddenly stretched out to the oil paper bag in front of him.
Xiang Tian's eyes dimmed, and he almost subconsciously grabbed the child's hand.
"Don't touch this."
What was inside was the Wu Shi San that Bai Qianqian had given him.
Although this thing is not fatal, it is not a good thing after all. Even if Xiang Tian is cold-hearted, he will not let a child touch such a thing, not to mention that this child is a little lady that Yanyan respects and likes very much.
Xue Sha's hand was grabbed, and his nose wrinkled. He stretched out his hand to pull his arm back, and said in a baby voice, "I won't touch it, it stinks."
After a pause, he said to him, "You stink too."
Xue Sha has always been casual, and Helian Yue and Si Linglong would never restrict her. When they heard her words, they vaguely remembered why Xue Sha chose another little eunuch yesterday, instead of Xiang Tian, who was obviously better looking.
It turns out that I had smelled the scent of Wu Shi San on him a long time ago.
[This means that you always carry it with you and are ready to strike at any time. ]
Si Linglong sighed in her heart.
But even though Xiang Tian kept the things on himself, he just grabbed Xue Shan without thinking and stopped her from touching the things on the ground. That subconscious action made Si Linglong like him a lot more.
[Knowing how to take care of children doesn’t mean you are a bad person. 】
Helian Yue couldn't help but glance at her, thinking that your standards for judging bad people are quite arbitrary.
Although Si Linglong couldn't read minds, she still understood the meaning in A Yue's eyes and raised her chin towards him righteously.
[For me, children and small animals are both standard. ]
However, Xiang Tian was a boy who was raised as a killer since childhood, so she didn't dare to expect him to really show kindness to small animals.
But sometimes, when looking at a person, just one detail is enough.
Si Linglong looked at Xiang Tian on the ground again, thought for a moment, and asked,
"You just said that you were entrusted by someone. That person must be Concubine Lian, right?"
Xiang Tian bowed his head and said nothing.
Although he was raised as a killer, he knows what morality is.
He had accompanied Bai Qianqian on the trip to Xuancheng and witnessed with his own eyes how she created a good reputation for herself. Although he did not think she was a good person, it was a fact that she had saved him and given him a place to stay.
Seeing that he had exposed himself and was still thinking about not dragging Concubine Lian into the water, Si Linglong didn't know whether she should feel sorry for this fool or feel sorry for Xiang Tian for being the one the heroine valued the most.
I didn't want to beat around the bush, so I just said,
"If you're doing this because she saved you, then you don't have to."
Si Linglong said, "After all, she was the one who planned your parents' death..."
Suddenly, Xiang Tian raised his head and stared at Si Linglong with sharp eyes.
His eyes suddenly became scary, causing Si Linglong to choke. She subconsciously shrank her neck and turned to look at A Yue. [His eyes are so scary, does he not believe me?]
Helian Yue looked at her aggrieved expression and just shook his head.
Feng's eyes swept over Xiang Tian below, only to see that his eyes were red. After a long while, he spoke in a hoarse voice,
"What do you mean, Madam?"
