Quick Transmigration: The Villainous Female Supporting Character Became the Male Lead's Beloved

Chapter 139 The Vicious Dancer in a Transmigration Novel 9

Under the moonlight, the uniquely dressed girl's eyes flickered as she slowly walked over across the cold ground: "General, His Majesty has bestowed me upon you, so why do you not summon me from time to time?"

Zhong Linjian stood backlit, making his emotions unreadable. After a few seconds of silence, he calmly said, "Summoned you? His Majesty didn't just bestow you upon me, so why summon you?"

Ni Qing smiled and said nonchalantly, "It seems that the general has someone else he likes, which makes me seem a bit unreasonable."

She decided to abandon her seduction plan for tonight and wait until the tension subsided a bit before proceeding. Ni Qing pursed her lips, about to say that she would take her leave, when the man interrupted her.

"Shut up!"

The man who had seemed nonchalant just moments before now had a cold expression, his hands clenched into fists at his sides. He inexplicably disliked her nonchalant attitude.

Ni Qing paused, then looked at him, puzzled. "What's wrong, General? Did I say something wrong?"

Zhong Linjian closed his eyes briefly, suppressing his agitation, and said calmly, "Do you remember what I said that day? I said, anyone who enters the main hall will be killed without exception."

The girl blinked: "This isn't the main hall."

"This is the backyard of the main hall."

"Oh."

Her expression was calm, showing no concern whatsoever about whether she would be killed.

Ni Qing pondered for a moment, but ultimately decided to continue with the plan, leisurely approaching the man: "General, are you willing to kill me?"

At that moment, she seemed to become a fairy under the moon, her exposed snow-white skin reflecting a luminous white hue, and a hint of mockery in her usually calm eyes.

Zhong Linjian looked at Ni Qing who had come up to him, his expression unchanged. He simply lowered his eyelashes indifferently and looked into her eyes casually.

Women from foreign lands are indeed alluring and seductive.

Ni Qing curled her lips into a bright smile, tiptoed, and slowly brought her lips closer. As expected, she would be pushed away just before the kiss, and in the original storyline, she was even severely injured.

But as they got closer, the man continued to look at her slowly and deliberately, showing no intention of stopping her.

Ni Qing: "???"

Although she had doubts, it was too late to back down now. Finally, their eyes met, and she slowly and easily kissed the general's cool lips.

Very well, there are still unexpected events.

Zhong Linjian's eyes were dark and unfathomable, and a warm and soft touch came from her lips, while her nose was filled with the sweet fragrance of a young girl.

The moonlight lengthened the two's ambiguous shadows.

Since this part of the storyline failed, there was no point in continuing the battle. Because having to stand on tiptoe to kiss him had become a bit sore after a while.

She seemed to be backing down.

Just as Ni Qing was about to leave, Zhong Linjian's eyes darkened. He supported the back of her head with one hand, wrapped the other around her slender waist, bent down slightly, and pressed his lips together again.

Even when kissing, Zhong Linjian's eyes were cold and indifferent, showing no sign of passion.

The girl immediately struggled, completely startled by his sudden action. Her breathing became erratic, rapid and unsteady, and she flushed slightly, as if she were experiencing oxygen deprivation.

After a while, the two gradually increased the distance between them.

Zhong Linjian was breathing rapidly, trying to calm his racing heart. He strode away before Ni Qing could react, giving the impression of a hasty escape.

-

Subsequently, with Ni Qing not taking the initiative, the two saw each other less and less, until the emperor privately invited her to the palace for an audience.

The general was not in the mansion, and the old eunuch came discreetly and quietly, as if afraid of alerting the enemy. After a little thought, she knew the purpose of the emperor's move.

Upon arriving at the palace, the emperor was still leisurely sipping tea. When he saw Ni Qing enter, he couldn't hide his amazement: "How have you been lately? Has the General's Mansion mistreated you?"

Ni Qing lowered her eyes and said in a calm tone, "Your Majesty, everything is fine."

She had been in the general's mansion for over a month, yet she hadn't revealed the slightest flaw. Looking at the woman's beautiful face, he felt nothing but distraction and regret.

What if she really was just an ordinary tribute dancer and not an assassin? Wouldn't he have missed a great opportunity?

But since the deed was already done, it would be unbecoming of a ruler to take the person back, so they had no choice but to proceed with the plan.

"What have you been busy with these past few days, General?" he began subtly probing for information.

Ni Qing's eyes flickered slightly, but she pretended to be calm: "The general has always been indifferent to me and rarely appears at the general's mansion. I don't know what he's doing."

The old emperor's expression immediately became meaningful: "To be honest, I'll be frank with you. I hope you can keep an eye on Zhong Linjian, and if necessary, find the military tally. You'll be rewarded handsomely then, what do you say?"

Ni Qing was slightly lost in thought, wondering if her previous seduction attempt had been successful. If it had, then it seemed she no longer needed to seduce Prime Minister Bai.

The next step would be to incite the general to rebel and kill the old emperor.

Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, seemingly not having heard him, the emperor grew somewhat displeased: "I'm speaking to you, did you hear me?"

Ni Qing reluctantly came to her senses and slowly said, "Does His Majesty mean that I should steal the military tally?"

The old emperor nodded, and even with such an obvious intention, he still feigned concern, saying, "The general has rendered meritorious service in protecting the country, so the military tally is of little use to him. It would be better to return it to its rightful owner..."

The military tally is a very important item in the storyline. Whoever possesses the military tally will be loyal to the Imperial Guard without hesitation.

This imperial guard was well-trained, powerful, and not under the emperor's control. It was bestowed upon the general's mansion by the late emperor long ago and has been passed down through generations.

The conversation was effectively suppressed. The moment she stepped out of the imperial study, Bai Zhiwei, holding a fan and with an ambiguous smile on his lips, brushed past her and entered the study.

Ni Qing glanced at him before getting into the carriage and returning to the General's Mansion.

Zhong Linjian, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, had returned. His expression was cold, and his brows were slightly furrowed, indicating that he was in a very unpleasant mood.

"Where did she go?"

He said in a cold voice.

The servant stammered, "General, we were busy working and didn't pay much attention to where the young lady went..."

Ni Qing paused for a moment as she stepped across the threshold before walking in with a normal expression: "General, were you looking for me?"

Zhong Linjian didn't speak, but simply waved his hand, and the servants around him retreated like a tide, leaving only the two of them in a short while.

He lifted his eyelids slightly and said slowly, "Remember to let me know where you went today next time you go out."

Ni Qing smiled slightly and said without reservation, "I went to the palace; His Majesty wanted to see me."
