"Okay! We've been testing each other for so long, we should all know each other's positions! In that case, we might as well just open the skylight and say something!"

When Gao Ran heard this, he naturally nodded happily in response, "It's okay!"

"I think you've guessed where I'm now...... You should know, what do I want?!"

"Hmm! I guess that...... Your storage zài itself should be a 'spare tire' specially left by the emperor......"

Speaking of this, Gao Ran immediately realized that Yun Jie might not understand what a "spare tire" was, so he hurriedly explained, "Oh, I mean, since you were born, you have been regarded by the emperor as a 'backup choice' for the heir to the throne. And Yun Zhen is the 'first choice'! I guessed right?!"

Gao Ran guessed that since the emperor would leave the second son of the twins despite offending Yun Xiangguo's taboo, I am afraid, in addition to the fact that he himself loved their mother concubine very much, more reasons should be due to the low fertility rate here and the difficulty of getting children - in order to have a successor, he must leave as many of his own heirs as possible, rather than executing them.

Fortunately, the appearance of the men here mostly follows the paternal line, so even if they are not twins, brothers who look very similar are still zài!

Therefore, the emperor fostered the four princes Yun Jie with other concubines, and then announced to the public that Yun Jie and Yun Zhen were half-brothers born on the same day......

The reason why the rumors about Yun Jie are rarely circulated among the people, in addition to Yun Jie's own personality, I am afraid that a large part of the reason is that the emperor secretly exerted pressure, so that those in the know did not dare to say more.

Over time, there are very few rumors that can be spread to the people......

Come to think of it, the emperor did this, in addition to protecting Yun Jie, more importantly, to ensure that his own country can have successors in the future!

After all, even if he was willing to let Yun Zhen ascend the throne in his heart, who could guarantee that he would not suddenly have any changes and pass away unexpectedly?!

Multiple guarantees, always good!

As an emperor, Yun Jie's storage zài, for him, I am afraid that he is more of a "spare tire tool" than a "son......

If it weren't for this, Gao Ran wouldn't have seen such a big difference between Yun Jie and Yun Zhen - if it weren't for the difference in growth experience, the acquired personality and temperament of a pair of identical twins would not be so different!

Moreover, hasn't the emperor yet set up a family affair for Yun Zhen and Yun Jie?!

You must know that the other two princes who have already been married off by the emperor have been set to be married at an early age!

Aren't these all very obvious "signals"?!

And this intention of the emperor, Gao Ran can think of it, and Yun Jie can naturally think of it even more!

"Huh. ”

Yun Jie sneered, and then said helplessly, "Although you guessed correctly, can you be more tactful...... Once you understand what it means, it sounds hurtful......"

"Uh...... Fourth Prince, are you fooling me?!So you're sad?!Then how did you survive to this day?!"

Gao Ran was naturally not stupid enough to be led by his nose.

Since he wants to play the emotional card, she doesn't mind pouring a basin of realistic "cold water" on him!

She just wants him to clearly recognize a fact: she is Gao Ran, a cold and indifferent, and very realistic person, playing the emotional card, not only will not work for her, but will also appear to be naïve and boring!

Feeling bored, Yun Jie also put away his joke knowingly.

"Well, knowing you're not interested in what I'm doing, I'm not going to tell you more...... I'll get to the point!"

"Wait!"

Gao Ran hurriedly stopped what Yun Jie was about to say.

Because, at that moment, she suddenly figured out all the qiē!

Naturally, I know, what is Yun Jie's idea?!

But......

Although the moment she figured it out, she was quite surprised by the conclusion she had reached, but at the same time, she had to admit that it was indeed the best choice for each other!

It's just that, even so, even if reason has accepted the rationality of this conclusion, emotionally, Gao Ran can't accept it for a while......

"What do you want to say, I've probably thought of it...... And, to tell you the truth, in fact, your intentions also happen to solve the problem that I have been having a headache lately...... It's just that this answer came too suddenly, and I need some time to deal with my feelings a little...... You give me one night. I'm leaving tomorrow, but I promise I'll give you a clear answer before I go!

Yun Jie looked at Gao Ran and thought for a moment, "Okay! I'll wait for your reply." ”

"Hmm. ”

Gao Ran answered softly, and then stood up a little weakly, ready to leave the room.

Even at this moment, Gao Ran's extremely complex and contradictory feelings were not revealed on her face, but they were still inadvertently revealed in her somewhat weak and slightly procrastinating steps......

When Yun Jie saw it, he couldn't help frowning.

"Wait!"

Just as Gao Ran was about to step out of the door, he suddenly made a voice to stop her from leaving.

"Huh, there's something else?!"

Gao Ran forced himself to calmly turn around and look back at Yun Jie who was lying on the bed.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to get an inch!, like you said, I'm just trying to better protect myself......"

When he said this, Yun Jie inadvertently revealed a hint of supplication in his eyes for the first time......

Both he and Gao Ran understand that in the current situation, Gao Ran is his best and possibly his last hope, but he is not Gao Ran's only choice!

Although Gao Ran admitted that choosing him can indeed completely eradicate the "hidden danger", but if he is not chosen, although it may be troublesome, there are still other ways to solve the "hidden danger"!

Therefore, for Gao Ran, it is not necessary for him!

Yun Jie and Gao Ran's extremely unequal demand for each other was destined early, and their negotiation this time, whether Gao Ran agreed or not, Yun Jie couldn't do anything with her.

However, for Yun Jie, if Gao Ran does not agree, then he will be even more powerless for his own future!

Therefore, at this moment, Yun Jie's expression when he looked at Gao Ran, and in an instant, it seemed to overlap with his appearance when they first met - Gao Ran once again saw his prayer for her in his eyes!

"Help me!"

When I first met, the words he said rang in her ears again......

Gao Ran knew that it was just her auditory hallucination, but ......

"Alas......"

Gao Ran sighed softly, and then, she suddenly launched a kindness, and it was rare to be a good person - she smiled and comforted him, "I will seriously consider it!"

Then, he turned around and quickly left.

Her hurried steps away were so fast that she barely gave Yun Jie any time to react.

Before Yun Jie could say anything more, she had already disappeared from his eyes......
