Nangong Lizhu?

Hearing this name appeared in their words with me, my heart suddenly moved.

Nangong Lizhu...? I was a little stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stepped forward and looked at them: "You are going to expel me, and Nangong Li - and the Imperial Concubine?"

"That's right!" Gongsun Qi immediately stepped forward, pointed at me and said, "It's you!"

“…”

My breathing was a little tight, and my mind was rotating rapidly, and I didn't even bother to say anything to him. The students around me were obviously a little angry. One of them pointed the arrow in his hand at the person below and said sternly: "What qualifications do you traitors have to come to Jixian Palace to show off your power!"

“What are our qualifications?”

When Gongsun Qi heard this, he immediately sneered. He raised his hand and the soldiers standing behind him immediately raised the sword in their hands, shining with a bright cold light, aiming them all at this. Gongsun Qi sneered: "This is our qualification. If you are still stubborn, don't blame us for being ruthless. The small Jixian Hall is not enough to be an excuse to stop us!"

"you--"

When the student heard their rampant words, he suddenly turned pale. He took a step forward and was about to shoot the other party with the arrow in his hand. I hurriedly raised his hand: "Let's wait!"

When the student heard my words, he hurriedly relaxed the strength of his hands, but he looked at me unwillingly: "Sister Yan?"

I raised my hand to stop him, then looked at Gongsun Qi below, and the soldiers who were solemnly behind them, ready to rush up at any time, and might even razed the entire Jixian Hall to the ground. I thought about it, and then said, "Gongsun Qi, and you, what is your purpose in fighting today?"

"We have already said, to protect the king."

"Is it just to expel Concubine Nangong and I?"

“This is our first step.”

"What about after expelling us?"

"That's not what you guys can do!"

This time, before I could speak, Yuan Mingde rushed to say, "But you also need to know that even if you and the concubine don't stand up, we can razend the place to the ground with a command. Do you think you have any other choice?"

“…”

Looking at their confident appearance, I took a deep breath.

Sun Jingfei and the others behind him could no longer hold back and whispered to me: "Miss Yan, you might as well come in quickly, they have no room for talks!"

"Yan Qingying!" Gongsun Qi said loudly below: "Do you want so many people to bury you two women?"

The student beside me said angrily: "Stop talking!"

Sun Jingfei also walked out from behind the gate, pointed at the person below and cursed: "You are the one who is in trouble, how can you say such things!"

This time, the people below were also angry and pointed at the people above and started to curse.

Just as they were quarreling, I calmed down instead, looking at the blades and blades that were shining with cold light and even blood stained with blood, in such chaos, my mind was particularly clearly organizing every word they said.

Then, I took a step forward and suddenly said, "You guys, give me some time."

...

My voice was not too loud, but as soon as this sentence was spoken, everyone froze, all of them quieted down, and looked at me in astonishment.

Sun Jingfei seemed to be unable to believe his eyes: "Miss Yan?"

I ignored him, just looked at Gongsun Qi and the others below, and said calmly: "If you expel Nangong Lizhu and I can really let you stop. Then the mere two women are not a big price."

They didn't seem to believe that I would say that, but they didn't respond for a while.

I continued, "But, the Imperial Concubine is different from me, so she may not agree. I need some time to convince her."

“…”

"You guys, give me some time."

The people below were obviously unable to react. Even the young master Lin, who had always been the quietest and smiling rebellious, looked at me in shock: "Do you really, really agree?"

I smiled faintly: "You can't let Jixian Palace encounter another disaster."

Sun Jingfei and the students were anxious: "Ms. Yan!"

"Senior Sister Yan!"

I still ignored them and only looked at the people below: "If you agree, we will limit it to one hour. Within one hour, I will persuade the concubine to leave together. If you want to kill and cut, you will follow you."

Those people looked at each other.

Gongsun Qi thought for a while, then sneered: "One hour? Yan Qingying, do you think we have so much free time to wait for you two women to chat slowly? One hour is enough for us to burn this Jixian Palace with a fire!"

As soon as the fire broke out in Jixian Hall, the students around them became nervous.

I said, "Then how much time do you give me?"

"To many, two quarters of an hour."

"Two quarters of an hour? No!" I bargained with them calmly: "The Imperial Concubine is different from me. She is the emperor's favorite concubine. If you say you are expelled, do you--"

I looked at them and said deliberately, "I forgot that she is also from a famous family?"

The few people looked at each other and didn't speak again.

After a while, Mr. Lin stepped forward and said, "In this way, we will give you half an hour. Within half an hour, you and the Imperial Concubine must come out and leave here. We will not force the Jixian Palace."

I said, "Okay!"

He looked at me again: "Miss Yan, I hope you do what you say, otherwise-" They looked at the originally quiet and elegant palace behind me, and sneered: "The catastrophe of Jixian Palace is inevitable."

I didn't say anything, but turned around under their attention and walked in.

Sun Jingfei and the students all followed me in. The door slowly closed behind me, but it could no longer separate the evil spirit brought by those below, and it could not conceal the depressed mood of the guards guarding at the door at this moment.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Sun Jingfei and the others rushed to me and said anxiously: "Miss Yan, you shouldn't agree to them!"

"We can keep here!"

"Yes, we can still find ways to find reinforcements. Their numbers are not large, so we don't have to despair so quickly!"

I didn't look at them, but just walked all the way in, and slowly said, "If we were guarding other places, we might still have room for guarding, but Jixian Hall is too easy to contribute. Once they set fire, let alone guarding, we don't even have room for self-protection."

The students said, "But we cannot exchange the lives of two women for our peace!"

I stopped and looked back at them: "Who said we should trade our lives?"

"…!" They were stunned and looked at me in shock.

Sun Jingfei stepped forward and said, "They have already made it clear. If you and the imperial concubine are used, isn't this the only thing--"

I glanced at him, didn't say anything, but stood by the side. Yang Jinqiao, who was listening to our conversation, took a step forward. She was calmer than those men. When I met her gaze, I felt a little support from strength.

She said to Sun Jingfei and the others: "Don't argue, leave this matter to her."

When Sun Jingfei heard her words, he seemed to be a little hesitant, but he didn't speak anymore.

I then breathed a sigh of relief and asked her, "Where are His Majesty the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine?"

"Inside, the side hall. Nangong Lizhu is still guarding the emperor."

"I'll go in and see her."

Yang Jinqiao nodded, stood behind me, and stopped Sun Jingfei and the others from following me. I quickly walked through the lobby and pushed open the door of the hall, and saw that there were people inside. Everyone looked at me with deep fear on their faces, almost desperately.

I only glanced at them.

Immediately, several terrified little palace maids ran to me and asked tremblingly: "Miss Yan, will we all die here?"

"We don't want to die!"

"Miss Yan, what should we do?"

...

Listening to their terrified words, I was surprised and even calmer than before, but I did not comfort them. After all, at this time, empty comfort is not enough to soothe anyone's fear. I just said lightly: "Everything is about planning for people and accomplishing things is about heaven. What you can wait for now is God's arrangement."

They were stunned when they heard this.

I raised my head and looked directly in front of the hall. Through a few screens, I could see Fu Badai sitting behind him. He was very quiet and was still writing something at his desk. There was also a very young student next to him dipping his brush ink and guiding him in the blank space on the book.

If the situation outside had not been so urgent, if it weren't for the horrified and desperate eyes around me, I almost thought that Jixian Palace would have spent another ordinary day like every day in the past, soaking in the fragrance of books and ink.

But today, this day is destined to be unorthodox.

I did not disturb his "elegance", but turned around and walked towards the side door, passed a long corridor, and arrived at the side hall.

The guards were guarding the gate and surrounding the panicked concubines.

When he saw me walking over, Wen Sisi and the others all walked up and asked in panic: "Miss Yan, how is the situation outside now?"

"Are those rebels going to invade?"

"We, will we-"

I said calmly: "It's nothing for the time being, don't panic. I want to meet the emperor and the imperial concubine first and discuss something with them."

"Imperial Concubine?"

"The imperial concubine is inside. Humph, everyone is the emperor's concubine, but she is the only one who is by the emperor's side."

"That's right, why don't she let us in!"
