I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 57 If I can't beat you to death, I'll burn you to death
Inside the main hall of Huaqing Palace.

"How can I trouble Eunuch Zhang to do it? I don't know the Majesty's rules. Eunuch Zhang, please take a rest. I will do it myself."

Chu Liuzheng moved her knees and was about to stand up when a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind and pressed hard on her shoulders, pinning her firmly to the ground.

Madam Qian exerted force with her hands, but smiled kindly: "Miss, just serve the tea. Eunuch Zhang is here to add water."

Chu Liuzheng struggled to break free but failed, and cursed Madam Qian in his heart.

"Girl, hold it steady." Zhang Baorong had a malicious smile on his face. He tilted the kettle, and the boiling water immediately poured out and fell into the pastel porcelain cup held by Chu Liuzheng.

As boiling water was poured into the porcelain cup, the temperature increased and splashing water droplets fell on the back of Chu Liuzheng's hand, scalding her so much that she trembled slightly and almost lost her grip on the teacup.

She pinched the edge of the base tightly and shouted, "Eunuch Zhang, if you pour more tea, it will overflow and ruin the queen's cup of fragrant tea."

Zhang Baorong cast a glance at the beauty on the chaise longue.

Concubine Rong was looking down at her nails, as if she was unaware of what was happening in front of her.

Zhang Baorong was certain in his heart, and the kettle tilted further and further.

As the tea filled up, it began to drip from the edge of the tea bowl in strings like rain, filling up the bottom and touching Chu Liuzheng's fingertips, scalding them red.

【grass! 】

Chu Liuzheng's eyes turned red from the pain, but Nanny Qian was still holding her down, so she couldn't break free at all.

More and more tea overflowed, almost as if it was poured out, and fell on the back of Chu Liuzheng's hand, scalding the fair skin and making it red, as if it was cooked, and several large bubbles appeared.

Chu Liuzheng's eyes welled up with tears due to the pain, and he bit his lips to prevent himself from crying out.

She knew she should beg for mercy at this time, but for some reason she felt so strong that she couldn't even utter the words.

Seeing that Zhang Baorong was about to put the boiling kettle on her face, Chu Liuzheng gritted her teeth.

[Damn it! I can’t bear it anymore! You can kill me or chop me up as you like!!]

Chu Liuzheng turned his wrist and the boiling hot tea poured out and splashed on Zhang Baorong's face.

Unexpectedly, Chu Liuzheng dared to resist. Zhang Baorong was splashed with scalding hot tea. He immediately covered his face and screamed. The kettle slammed on the luxurious carpet.

Nanny Qian was stunned with shock, and Chu Liuzheng took the opportunity to grab the handle of the kettle next to her and smashed it at her.

[You old hag, if I can’t beat you to death I’ll burn you to death!!]

He didn't care where he hit, he just smashed it around like mad, scalding Madam Qian so hard that she screamed and in panic she tripped over her left foot and fell onto the chaise longue.

The incident happened suddenly, how could Concubine Rong have time to dodge?
She screamed in horror and was hit by Nanny Qian, pressing her hard on the couch, almost passing out.

This sudden change happened in a flash. All the palace people in the hall were so stunned that they even forgot to step forward to catch Chu Liuzheng.

Zhang Baorong finally recovered from the pain. He covered the blood blisters on his face with one hand and pointed at Chu Liuzheng with the other hand, "You lawless bitch! Catch her and drag her out to be beaten to death!"

Angry and in pain, he no longer cared that Chu Liuzheng was a servant in front of the emperor, and just wanted to pay for the pain of having the tea splashed on his face.

The palace servants finally reacted and rushed forward to grab Chu Liuzheng.

Chu Liuzheng had already given up, as if he had lost his sense of pain, and he grabbed the kettle and smashed it around.

There was still some water left in the kettle, and it scalded the whole room so much that everyone had to hide with their heads in their hands.

Chu Liuzheng seized the opportunity, used a kettle to knock back a young eunuch who was blocking his way, and rushed out with the kettle.

The palace maids followed and chased after her, shouting, "She hurt the queen! Catch her!!"

Suddenly, everyone in the Huaqing Palace moved, surrounding Chu Liuzheng. Chu Liuzheng held a broom in one hand and a kettle in the other, pursed his lips, and the gentleness in his bright almond eyes faded, as if they were covered with ice and snow. He swept coldly over everyone and slowly adjusted his breathing.

[Even if I die today, I will drag these two people down with me! ]

Zhang Baorong was furious with Chu Liuzheng. He ran out with his hands covering his face and yelled at everyone, "What are you all standing there for! Go ahead!!"

Everyone looked at each other and rushed towards Chu Liuzheng together.

Chu Liuzheng's eyes were fierce, and he was about to fight to the death, when suddenly a sharp shout rang out: "Stop!"

The sound was drawn out very long, and Zhou Yuande almost died after shouting it out.

He and Gao Yongfu ran over with their men, and after seeing the situation clearly, they almost fainted.

——Oh, God, it’s only been such a short time, how come Miss Liu Zheng has become so miserable?
Seeing that there was still a young eunuch ready to capture Chu Liuzheng, Zhou Yuande immediately shouted: "You daring slave, don't you want your hands and claws anymore?"

He pushed through the crowd and stood in front of Chu Liuzheng, blocking her behind him, and glanced around fiercely.

This imposing look frightened the palace servants who had just been attacking Chu Liuzheng so much that they immediately stopped their actions and looked at Zhang Baorong as obediently as quails.

They all followed orders.

Zhang Baorong looked extremely furious. Why did Zhou Yuande jump out to mess up the situation?

With a piercing pain on his face, Zhang Baorong lost his usual kind words to Zhou Yuande, "This palace maid wanted to murder the Royal Concubine Rong. Murdering the Royal Concubine is a capital crime. Eunuch Zhou is defending her so much, do you want to lose your head with her?"

"I don't know that much." How could Zhou Yuande be frightened by two words? "Your Majesty ordered me to invite Miss Liu Zheng to Changchun Palace, so I will invite her there properly. I don't care about other things."

The two men stared at each other, confronting each other, neither of them giving in.

"Eunuch Zhou," Chu Liuzheng had already thrown away the broom and kettle, and reached out to pull Zhou Yuande's sleeve, his voice weak, "I didn't murder the imperial concubine, I am innocent..."

Before he could finish his words, he fainted.

"Young lady!" Zhou Yuande was so frightened that he hurriedly supported the person. When he got closer, he found that there were burns of varying degrees on Chu Liuzheng's exposed skin, especially on her hands. The skin was burned in several places, and the bright red flesh was exposed. Eunuch Zhou couldn't bear to look closely.

——It’s over. Now that he has become like this, how can I report to His Majesty?

*
Chu Liuzheng had a dream. In the dream, she fried a lot of chestnuts with her bare hands. The big iron pot and the sand were like a volcano. She was so hot that she screamed but could not wake up.

Just when she thought she could dominate the martial arts world by roasting chestnuts with her bare hands and mastering a pair of iron sand palms, suddenly, a piercing pain attacked her mind and woke her up.

The eyelashes of the person on the bed trembled, and he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "I don't practice Iron Sand Palm!"

Everyone in the room: "..."

What?
Xiao Jingfan, who had listened to Chao Ban Li's voice for a long time, said: "..."

What does this woman think about all day long?
He said coldly: "Wake up when you wake up. I have something to ask you."

Chu Liuzheng was a little dazed at first, but when he heard the familiar voice that froze him to death, he immediately came to his senses and sat up on the bed...but he didn't sit up.

How could her newly bandaged hand withstand such force? She screamed in pain and fell back, tears streaming down her face.

Xiao Jingfan subconsciously reached out his hand but failed to catch it.

Looking at his actions, Queen Zhong's eyes flashed with understanding, and she winked at Qiu Sui beside her.

Qiu Sui stepped forward, gently helped Chu Liuzheng up, and wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

　The third round of PK is over. Thank you for your support!
