Chapter 2: The Spy
The smile on the corner of Shen Li's mouth became stronger and stronger, with a bit of bloodthirsty taste. Suddenly, he pressed Liu Feixu's hand on the table, took the dagger in her hand, and stabbed it into her palm so fiercely.
Yes!!!
Blood flowed on the table, and a shrill scream drew people outside the room. Several maids and several guards broke into the house one after another, but when they saw the scene in front of them, they were all stunned in place.
Only then did Shen Li slowly stand up and kick the stool under him. Turning to look at the people who broke in, their expressions were cold, and their eyes were full of murder.
"Get out of here for the king! No one is allowed to come in without my orders!"
"Yes, yes!"
The guards and maids bowed their heads and trembled, and retreated as they responded. The door was closed, and the people who came and went also left. Liu Feixu's scream was just because the pain came too suddenly, since she dared to come to Mingguo to be a spy, she thought about how much damage she would suffer after her identity was exposed. So the stubbornness of her bones does not allow her to be cowardly, even if her forehead is full of cold sweat at the moment, and her face is pale and terrible, she gritted her teeth and never squeaked again.
"Does it hurt?"
Shen Li looked back at her, pulled a chair and sat down again. He took the flask and continued to pour wine into his glass, as if he couldn't see the bloody palm he had pinned to the table.
Liu Feixu tugged at the corners of her mouth, and the heart-rending pain made her unable to stand, so she could only lean against the table, a little out of strength.
"Do you want to know? You can try it yourself. Why do you ask me?"
Things have developed to this point, and Liu Feixu no longer needs to continue acting. Since she has been seen through a long time ago, she can say whatever she wants now, and she no longer has any scruples.
"Heh~" Shen Li chuckled and muttered, "I can't see it, you are also a fierce woman." ”
Liu Feixu thought that he was deliberately mocking, and he was not angry, but his face was pale, and he asked unwillingly: "When did you know my identity?"
When she came to Mingguo, she sold herself into the place of Fengyue. There is the most news there, and it is a peaceful and prosperous world, but no one wants to be a prostitute if they can survive or have a family. So her identity can be concealed very well, and she has always said that she is an orphan to the outside world.
Shen Duyi, the monarch of the Ming Kingdom, has seven princes under his knees, except for the seventh Shen Yan, who is perennial here, the remaining six have all been crowned kings and started families. The second prince is timid and lustful, and likes to linger in Fireworks Willow Lane the most. As the top brand of Xueyue Tower, she naturally has to come into contact with him. I still remember that the first time she met Shen Li was at the dinner party set up in the second prince's mansion. She was invited to play the piano and sing, and among those princes, she could see at a glance that Shen Li was different.
Later, by accident and intention, Shen Li finally became her minister. She just thought of being another stinky man who was greedy for beauty, because she heard that Mu Yan, the granddaughter of the high priest, liked the third prince very much, so she deliberately approached and tried her best to curry favor. Now that I think about it, the play within the play, the game within the game, it turns out that she was the one who won the plan!
"The first time I saw you in the second brother's mansion, I was puzzled. ”
Shen Li took a sip from his wine glass, "Do you know where you showed a flaw?" He looked up at Liu Feixu slightly, and stretched out his finger to point to his eyes.
"Here! Although you have learned the tricks and styles of those dusty women vividly, you are not from there after all. Even if you want to, you can't make a complete change. In fact, you should look in the mirror more often to know the reason. Have you ever heard the saying that you will not be stained by the mud? Have the people who sent you to Mingguo ever told you that when you speak, try not to let others see your eyes. Because when you meet an ignorant person, you may be able to easily deceive it. But if you meet someone smart, you'll be completely exposed. ”
Liu Feixu was shocked in her heart, Gongzi had indeed said to her that if she was not completely sure, she should not easily meet other people's eyes. She didn't know why before, but now when she heard it from Shen Li's mouth, she realized that no matter how well she learned her external behavior, as long as people could see your heart, it would also be exposed.
"Speaking of which, your master is really ruthless. Such a stunning woman actually sent Da Ming as a spy. Did he decide that you could do the job for him, or did he have a better girl around him that he abandoned you?"
"Hmph!" Liu Feixu ignored Shen Li's cynicism, and sneered coldly: "How can you guess the wisdom of Childe? I came here voluntarily, and it has nothing to do with him. You don't have to provoke me with these words, it's useless!"
"Oh?
Shen Li raised his eyebrows, put down the wine glass and stood up lazily. He walked to the place where the piano stand was placed in the room, and slowly leaned down and plucked a few strings.
"I heard that you cherish this piano very much, did the boy you think gave it to you?"
When Liu Feixu heard this, he subconsciously had an ominous premonition in his heart, and couldn't help blurting out: "Don't touch it!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on the corner of Shen Li's mouth became significantly stronger. He frowned and shook his head, revealing a look of regret.
"Should I say that you are pitiful? or are you pathetic? For the sake of the boy in your mouth, I came to Daming desperately. Sell yourself in the wind and snow, let others spoil it. What did you get in the end? Did your son repay you? The king now wonders, if you destroy the only piano in your soul, will you still be so stubborn and calm?"
Liu Feixu breathed a little, regardless of the pain in his hands, and shook his head desperately.
"Don't!
Shen Li's eyebrows bent, although his face was full of smiles, but his eyes were full of ruthlessness.
"This king knows that you are from the snow country, and as for the prince in your mouth, I probably have a number in my heart. But this king does not know what is the purpose of your coming to Mingguo? If so, you should have done it a long time ago, after all, there have been so many opportunities in the past, and they are much better than today. ”
Liu Feixu bit her lower lip tightly, as if she didn't want to say. Seeing this, Shen Li squinted his eyes and kicked towards the piano platform. didn't give Liu Feixu a chance to hesitate at all, and under her wide-eyed eyes full of despair, she stepped the piano that she almost cherished with her life. The sawdust flew and broke in two in the blink of an eye.
Liu Feixu's pupils shrank, and he stood up almost like crazy, pulled out the dagger that was nailed to the palm of his hand, and pounced on Shen Li fiercely. She was menacing, but to Shen Li, she didn't pose any threat, just dodged with a slight dodge.
Shen Li snatched the dagger, restrained her hands, and pressed her against the wall. The sharp dagger blade was against her slender white neck.
