Playing bad and eating melons: The whole court is laughing? No, no

I am most afraid of the sudden silence in the air...

The man next to Nan Muyang moved aside without leaving any trace.

He was wondering why Nan Muyang suddenly had bad breath, and it turned out that he had eaten something fishy.

Ugh~so disgusting.

We just had dinner together.

Jiang Yueyang really didn't expect that she just cursed casually and it hit the mark.

[Serves him right! Who told him to speak so harshly?! Xiaogua, if I ask him what si tastes like, will he hit me?]

System: [...Host, your thinking is unusually clear.]

Jiang Yueyang heard this and said with regret: [What a pity.]

Upstairs, Nan Muyang noticed everyone's strange looks and the way they covered their mouths and laughed, and his face became extremely ugly.

Furious and embarrassed, he pointed at the people below and yelled, "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyeballs out. And you, what are you laughing at? Is that funny? Get out of here!"

He couldn't do anything to Jiang Yueyang, so he could only get angry at the onlookers.

The onlookers left in embarrassment, and the playboys surrounding He Jing also left with intriguing expressions.

Nan Muyang glared at Jiang Yueyang viciously, kicked the fence, and then turned away.

Not long after he left, the man who had been standing next to Nan Muyang began to vomit.

Jiang Yueyang: ???

What's wrong with him? Why is he vomiting so much all of a sudden? Is he having morning sickness?

Hearing this, the man swallowed back what he had half vomited, and then vomited even more violently.

At this time, He Jing walked up to Jiang Yueyang and said weakly, "Thank you."

Jiang Yueyang felt confused. Why should she say thank you to her?

In the eyes of others, this scene showed that He Jing was just stupid.

If it weren't for Jiang Yueyang, no one would know that he was gay, and he wouldn't have suffered the humiliation he just suffered.

Jiang Yueyang didn't know why He Jing wanted to thank her, but she wanted to say to He Jing at this moment: "Mr. He, just be yourself and don't care about other people's eyes. No one is a saint, how can we get everyone's kindness."

He Jing was touched and couldn't help asking, "Miss Jiang, don't you think I'm... disgusting?"

Jiang Yueyang shook her head. "Everyone has the right to choose what they like. You're not wrong. You just like different things than others. Who says you have to like the same things as others?"

"But……"

"Nothing to worry about."

Jiang Yueyang interrupted him softly, "There are tens of thousands of people in this world, and there are many who are different. If you feel disgusted because of this little difference in yourself, then I can only say that you have trampled yourself into the dust and allowed others to humiliate you."

After hearing her words, He Jing felt a different touch in his heart, as if a beam of light shone into the bottomless quagmire, purifying all the filth and driving away all the darkness.

After a while, he suddenly smiled with enlightenment.

"Miss Jiang, I understand."

Jiang Yueyang pursed her lips and smiled at him. It’s good that you understand. It’s worth all my chicken soup for the soul words.

Strangely, the guilt I felt before seemed to have disappeared.

***

Dali Temple.

Lord Wu was tied to a cross, Cui Yuan stood in front of him with a whip, and Qin Shi was behind him.

"Sir Wu, as colleagues, I can't bear to see you being tortured. Why don't you just confess? I can save myself some energy, and you can be spared the pain."

"Heh." Lord Wu gave a weak smile. "I didn't kill anyone... what am I confessing?"

Qin Shi's eyes instantly turned cold, and his voice also became a little colder.

"In that case, I won't waste any more words."

As his voice fell, Cui Yuan stretched the whip in his hand a few times, and then hit Lord Wu with a snap.

One whip after another, accompanied by Lord Wu's screams.

The sound was so shrill and terrifying that the prisoners in the Dali Temple prison were all frightened.

After being whipped more than ten times, Lord Wu could no longer bear it and fainted.

But this has just begun, how can it end?

So, at Qin Shi's signal, Cui Yuan put down the whip in his hand and picked up the small pliers on the table.

I saw him clamping Lord Wu's nails with pliers, and then pulling out one of the nails with force.

"Ah..." Lord Wu was awakened by the pain.

Qin Shi asked slowly, "Has Lord Wu changed his mind?"

"I...didn't kill anyone."

Lord Wu still refused to admit it. Cui Yuan didn't even need Qin Shi's instructions. He gripped the pliers tightly and pulled out another nail.

After pulling out five in a row, Qin Shi finally asked, "To recruit or not to recruit?"

Lord Wu raised his head with great effort, and said with an unsteady breath, "I am... wronged. You... you can't... force a confession out of me."

Seeing this, Qin Shi had a moment of doubt as to whether Lord Wu was really wronged.

As a civil servant, how could he endure such torture if he was not wrongly accused?

Cui Yuan asked, "Sir, are you still going to continue?"

At this moment, Jiang Yueyang's face suddenly flashed through Qin Shi's mind, and the previous doubt disappeared instantly.

No, Miss Jiang’s thoughts cannot be wrong!

So, he said calmly, "Continue."

At this time, on the other side, Jingzhao Yin and General Zhenguo led their troops to Xinghua Village in Yongzhou.

They controlled the entire village and learned that the people in the valley would only come out once every two weeks. They decided to send scouts in to understand the situation in the valley before making any deployments.

Now, they are lying in ambush at the entrance of the col, waiting for an opportunity to sneak in when it gets dark.

Everything was going well on their side, but things were a little bad inside the palace.

Despite Emperor Yuan's strict defenses, the Empress Dowager still got wind of the situation.

At this time, the Empress Dowager was questioning why Emperor Yuan sent the imperial guards to surround Prince Rong's mansion.

Emperor Yuan did not answer.

The Queen Mother was so angry that she grabbed the teacup beside her and smashed it to the ground, "Emperor, I am asking you a question!"

"Mother, His Majesty..."

"Shut up, I'm asking him!"

The Queen was interrupted by the Queen Mother before she could finish her words.

Emperor Yuan couldn't bear to see his beloved woman being wronged, so he said expressionlessly, "What do you want me to say, Queen Mother? That Prince Rong is raising a hundred thousand private soldiers and plotting rebellion?"
