Chapter 280 A Big Drama
The autumn hunting team hurried back.
After returning to the palace, Nan Lijun's first order was to dismiss Song Lan from his post and send him back to the Su family on the pretext that Song Lan and Su Zhengyang were disrespectful to the military general and hero Yun Chen.
No matter how Ren Songlan cried out for injustice, Nan Lijun remained unmoved.
Song Lan couldn't explain it clearly. She just received Yan Shijiu's sudden visit according to etiquette, and drank the cup of tea he handed to her. She had no control over what happened afterwards.
She knew that Yan Shijiu and Zhi Luo had conspired against her, but she had no way to seek justice.
Because that disgusting scene not only knocked Nan Lijun down, but also shattered her dignity forever.
Immediately afterwards, Nan Lijun personally wrote the second Eastern Palace Order, ordering Yan Shijiu to be expelled from the capital forever and never be allowed to enter the palace again.
Zhiluo stood quietly in the East Palace, watching Nanlijun crying as he wrote and tore up letter after letter.
She really admired Yan Shijiu for taking the risk and taking things to this extent.
At the same time, she was more curious about how Yan Shijiu would win back Nan Lijun's heart.
When Nan Lijun finally finished writing the Eastern Palace Order with trembling pen strokes, Yan Shijiu arrived.
He walked into the East Palace with heavy steps, his black hair was messy and his lips were bloodless.
In just a few days, he lost a lot of weight. His handsome cheeks were as flawless as jade, and his tall body was wrapped in a somewhat loose robe, revealing a sickly yet handsome paleness.
Even Zhi Luo couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and sympathetic when he saw him like this.
Yan Shijiu murmured sorry and went forward to hug Nan Lijun, but was violently pulled free.
Nan Lijun slapped him in the face, but he didn't dodge or dodge. He let her cry, question him, scold him, and beat him, and he accepted it all.
Only after Nan Lijun had vented enough did he explain with red eyes and sobs that he knew nothing. He only remembered taking a sip of the tea handed to him by Song Lan, and then he could no longer control anything.
He tried to hug Nan Lijun again, but was still pushed away.
Every time he was pushed away, his expression became more painful and helpless than the previous time.
He begged for Nan Lijun's forgiveness over and over again, looking at her pitifully with his beautiful eyes, swearing to the sky that he really loved her, and begged her not to drive him away. As long as he could stay in the palace, even if he was just a eunuch watching her from afar and serving her, he would be happy with it.
Zhiluo stood quietly in a dark corner, watching everything.
She felt that Yan Shijiu was being too arrogant. Could this make Nan Lijun believe him and forgive him?
But then, Zhi Luo saw Yan Shijiu pick up the paper cutter on the table, and with a flash of the blade, he stabbed it towards his crotch without hesitation.
As the knife fell to the ground with a clang, blood slowly seeped out of Yan Shijiu's robe.
Then he staggered and fell to the ground.
Nan Lijun was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly and screamed.
Zhiluo immediately stepped forward and stopped all the palace servants who came over after hearing the noise, saying that Nanlijun had scratched his hand and that they just needed to summon an imperial physician.
The imperial physician entered the hall alone and examined Yan Shijiu's injuries. When he lifted up his clothes, he was also startled and asked in surprise:
"What the hell? What's going on? Are you going to castrate yourself?!"
Nan Lijun was stunned and stood there shaking.
It was not until the imperial physician shouted that there was still hope that Nan Lijun frantically called for Zhiluo's help.
Zhiluo asked the guards to guard the East Palace and not allow anyone to approach, while helping to bring water and cloth.
Basins of blood were brought out from the bedroom, which made Nan Lijun tremble with fear.
When Yan Shijiu was sweating profusely from the pain and his lips were almost bloodless, he said to Nan Lijun with tears in his eyes:
"Ari... please... don't doubt me... I'll just be a eunuch... then... no one can... plot against us..."
At that moment, Nan Lijun forgot everything and just hugged Yan Shijiu and cried bitterly, saying that everything was her fault and she shouldn't have been suspicious.
Fortunately, the imperial physician said that the paper cutter was off by half an inch and did not cause any vital injuries.
Otherwise, just a little bit more and Yan Shijiu would really have to be a eunuch for the rest of his life.
After hearing what the imperial physician said, Nan Lijun trembled and took a long breath. He hugged Yan Shijiu even tighter, and said with tears and guilt on his face:
"It's all my fault..."
With just this one sentence, Zhi Luo knew that Yan Shijiu had succeeded.
It is impossible for a chess player who dares to put himself on the chessboard as a chess piece not to win.
Looking back at Yan Shijiu's "wonderful performance", he was relaxed and tense in moderation, and fully committed. His affectionate look almost made Zhi Luo believe it several times.
Finally, there is a thrilling "castration" drama and a heart-wrenching confession.
How many women in this world can remain rational and escape this method?
It won't be long before Yan Shijiu will be intimate with Nan Lijun in bed again.
After this "plot" and reconciliation, the two have become even closer and their friendship will be even stronger than before.
Zhi Luo memorized this series of tricks in her mind. She felt that sooner or later, she would be able to use this control technique based on human weaknesses.
Zhi Luo admired Yan Shijiu but also had doubts about him.
She knew that Luo did it for Yun Chen, but why did Yan Shijiu do this?
Some subtle and unpleasant associations arose in her mind.
When Nan Lijun went to change clothes and Yan Shijiu was the only one left in the East Palace, she finally couldn't help but ask this question.
Although Yan Shijiu's face was pale due to pain, he had an unfathomable smile on his face, and his starry eyes were filled with a satisfied glow, making him completely different from the person he was just now.
He propped up his head and looked at Zhi Luo. Because of his recovery, he was only wearing a single layer of clothing. When he raised his hand, the clothes opened from his shoulders, revealing his strong and muscular chest.
Zhi Luo blushed slightly and immediately avoided looking.
Yan Shijiu looked at Zhiluo with great interest. "You only want Yunchen, don't you? It's best not to listen to or ask about anything else, so that you can stay with Yunchen forever. As for me, I want to stay in this Nan Kingdom Palace forever. Do you understand? - Senior Lady Zhiluo."
Zhiluo was very surprised. He didn't expect that Yan Shijiu's goal was to gain power in Nan Country?
That’s right, otherwise he wouldn’t be willing to start as Nan Lijun’s male favorite.
Thinking of this, Zhiluo felt at ease.
From today on, there is no longer Song Lan, only the senior female official Zhiluo, the only senior female official beside Nan Lijun.
She and Yan Shijiu will stand on either side of Nan Lijun, close to his ears, and send the most gentle and powerful wind into Nan Lijun's mind.
Waiting for Yun Chen to make more military achievements and for Zhi Luo to secure her position as a high-ranking official would be the best opportunity to grant them a marriage.
As long as she can be with Yun Chen, she is willing to do anything.
