Chapter 25: Change of Mind
In the imperial study, Nangong Ye is still wearing a golden dragon robe, and he has a natural kingly domineering, but it always makes people feel a little more untimely and hideous, maybe because all of this was obtained by him by extraordinary means.
As long as Nangong Ye thought that he could behead Nangong Yi at noon tomorrow, he couldn't help but be happy, he had been looking forward to it for so long, waiting for so long, this day was finally coming.
Now he only hopes that time can be too fast, a little faster, so that he can see Nangong Yi die sooner, he thinks that as long as Nangong Yi dies, he can sit back and relax, and no one will threaten his status again.
He has always thought that he is better than Nangong Yi in his heart, but since he was a child, all his aura has been snatched away by Nangong Yi, no one has noticed his excellence at all, and even his father does not pay attention to him at all, all of which makes him full of resentment towards Nangong Yi, so he has always wanted to get rid of him.
"Ye'er ......" Just when Nangong Ye was looking forward to her bright future, Concubine Li's slightly deep voice suddenly came.
"Mother, how did you get here?" Although Nangong Ye was happy to see Concubine Li, she felt a little strange and didn't know why she came to the imperial study at this time.
"Ye'er, the concubine wants to discuss something with you." Although Concubine Li had decided to persuade Nangong Ye to change her mind, she was still a little unable to speak, after all, she also knew that it would be difficult to do this.
"What's the matter, mother, please say." Nangong Ye, who has always been ruthless, has completely become a different person in front of Concubine Li, so respectful and obedient, and even speaking is gentle as she has never been.
"Can you kill Nangong Yi in three days?" Concubine Li hesitated for a moment but said this, anyway, she felt that now that the overall situation had been decided, even if she killed Nangong Yi a few days later, it would not affect anything, and more importantly, it would not affect her blessings.
"Mother, why is that? Don't you want to see Nangong Yi die sooner? Nangong Ye was very surprised by Concubine Li's request, and she didn't understand why she said this.
"Ye'er, today's Lingxu abbot of Lingyin Temple came to pray for the palace, saying that in the past few days, you can't kill in the palace, let alone kill people, otherwise this prayer will not work." Nangong Ye's reaction was expected by Concubine Li, so she explained to him in detail.
"Is the words of the abbot of the Spirit Void credible?" Nangong Ye was suspicious by nature, so he was a little worried that the abbot of Lingxu would do this only if he was instructed to do so.
"It is credible that he has been praying for the blessing of the palace all these years." Over the years, Concubine Li often went to Lingyin Temple to eat fasting and chant Buddha, so she also trusted the abbot of Lingxu very much, and she would not have any doubts about what he said.
"Mother, let Erchen think about it." Nangong Ye hesitated a little, not knowing what to do.
In Nangong Ye's heart, Concubine Li is his only relative, his most beloved person, and it stands to reason that he should agree to her request; But the other side saw that he would be able to kill Nangong Yi soon, and he didn't want to wait any longer, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
"Ye'er, the mother concubine knows that this matter makes you very embarrassed, so you just treat it as if the mother concubine didn't say it." Nangong Ye's hesitation was seen by Concubine Li, although Concubine Li understood him very well, but she was still a little disappointed in her heart.
"Mother, the son promised you, then I will kill Nangong Yi in three days, is this okay?" Although Nangong Ye is ruthless to others, he doesn't want to see Concubine Li a little sad and lost, killing Nangong Yi is important, but it is not as important as his mother, so he reluctantly made this decision.
"Are you telling the truth? Thank you, Night. Concubine Li's heart was a little moved, she knew Nangong Ye very well, and it was really difficult for him to make such a decision.
"There can be many opportunities to kill Nangong Yi, but there is only one of my mother's concubines, for the health and happiness of my mother's concubine, my sons are willing to change their minds." At this moment, Nangong Ye is like all the filial sons in the world, so obedient and respectful, not at all like the ruthless Night King.
"Mother's good son......" Nangong Ye's words moved Concubine Li very much, and she was proud to have such a filial son.
And Shen Birou on the side was also secretly happy when she saw this scene, because Nangong Ye had already changed her mind just now and decided to kill Nangong Yi in three days, so that what she promised Ling Yufei could be regarded as complete.
Shen Birou's heart was also quickly thinking about how to tell Ling Yufei the good news, because she knew that Ling Yufei was not in the palace now, but was with Ling Yuwei in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Mama Shen, this palace suddenly wants to eat the most famous osmanthus cake on the streets of the capital, you go out of the palace to buy some and come back." Just as Shen Birou was thinking hard about how to get out of the palace, Concubine Li suddenly spoke.
"The slave obeys." Shen Birou's heart was filled with joy again, it seemed that God really helped her, she didn't expect Concubine Li to send her out of the palace to do errands at this time, although there was not too much time, but at least the time to inform Ling Yufei was enough.
And at this moment, Ling Yuwei and Ling Yufei in the Prime Minister's Mansion looked anxious, because they didn't know what Shen Birou was doing.
Now there is less and less time until tomorrow afternoon, which means that their chances of saving Nangong Yi are getting slimmer and slimmer.
"Sister, don't worry too much, I believe that my mother will succeed, maybe she will have good news soon." Seeing that Ling Yuwei was so worried, Ling Yufei comforted her with some distress.
"Nangong Ye's hatred for Yi is so deep, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to change his mind." Ling Yuwei also hoped that Shen Birou could succeed, but she had to worry about this problem, especially when she thought of Nangong Ye's ruthlessness.
"Sister, Nangong Ye is indeed ruthless to others, but it is completely different to Concubine Li, so I believe he will definitely listen to Concubine Li." Although Ling Yufei and Nangong Ye are just a husband and wife with no name, she still knows him quite well.
"Hopefully......" Ling Yuwei frowned slightly, the feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger, the only thing she could do now was to wait, but she didn't know if it was good news or bad news.
At this time, there was a sudden urgent knock on the door, and Ling Yuwei and Ling Yufei looked at each other and ran towards the door quickly, because they had guessed who might be the person.
When Ling Yuwei and Ling Yufei opened the door excitedly, it was Shen Birou who appeared in front of them who they had been waiting for.
