Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Moon
After Ye Ni finished shouting, she was blindfolded by a person, and then she fainted.
When she woke up, Yeni found herself in a place she wasn't familiar with, but she was sure it wasn't a dungeon. Because the dungeon can't have such a large space. Ye Ni could feel that she should be in someone's room, and it was probably a woman, because the room was very elegantly furnished and neat. If you really want to say it, Ye Ni would rather guess that this is the room of the girl named Ying Rong, Zhao Lizhu is unlikely, her room should be more colorful.
There was a faint fragrance in the room, it was the smell of flowers, Ye Ni couldn't tell if it was a lily or an orchid, but it was definitely not the strong fragrance that Zhao Lizhu was suitable for.
After a while, she realized that she was still lying on the bed, so she sat up, only to find that there was already a person sitting at the table in the room.
"Wake up. Ran Yue took a sip of tea and asked tepidly.
"Are you...... Chief of Intelligence?"
It's terrible, obviously the prince told her everyone's name, but she only remembered their positions. The intelligence manager in front of him obviously asked one more question about him, but he forgot the other party's name completely.
"My name is Sometsuki. Dye Yue put down the teacup, walked to Ye Ni's bed and sat down, Ye Ni subconsciously stepped back a few times, but although the bed was big, the distance between Dye Yue and her still broke through the safe distance.
Ye Ni smelled the smell of Dye Yue's body, it was a faint fragrance, I couldn't tell what it was, like an apple, and like a sweet orange that had just been cut.
Ye Ni looked around in horror, occasionally making eye contact with Moondye, only to find him staring straight at her. Ye Ni finally realized that it was the neutral-looking man in front of her who saved her at the banquet, and asked, "Why did you save me?"
"Because I'm the intelligence chief. Dye Yue explained simply: "The royal family doesn't know about the people's affairs, and the people don't know what the royal family knows." I belong neither to the royal family nor to the common people, so I know the affairs of both sides. I don't know who exactly wanted to murder Emperor Baichuan, but I know that this person is definitely not you. ”
"So what do you want to do?" Ye Ni has long known that if others in this world don't need you, then he won't help you for nothing. Even if you don't need it now, you have to worry about paying off this favor in the future.
Dye Yue reached out to touch Ye Ni's face, Ye Ni wanted to hide, but when Dye Yue's hand reached over, Ye Ni looked at the other party's eyes and saw a ...... The expression of a child at the sight of a new toy.
Ye Ni's face touched Sometsuki's hand, which was unexpectedly cold, as if she had just had a snowball fight in winter.
Dye Yue's hand retreated at the touch of it, and said, "It's really enviable that a girl like you can still maintain such good skin." ”
"Actually, after I arrived at the palace, the maid used the silk soaked in milk to cover my face every day. "Ye Ni was not like this when she first came to the palace, and in the past month or so, under the care of the maids, she is like a different person.
"You have to have a good foundation. Sometsuki didn't seem to care about this fact at all, and continued, "You know, as a good lord, image is actually very important. For example, Emperor Baichuan, when he was young, he was simply the dream lover of every girl in the imperial capital, and even before his death, there were many women who dreamed of being entangled with him in their dreams. ”
Ye Ni really didn't understand what Dye Yue wanted to express, so she could only watch him.
"And our prince Tuo, needless to say, must be the lover of your dreams, right? not only you, but the prince Tuo is a beautiful man with a long summer reputation, and when he becomes Tuodi—it won't be too far in the future—maybe diplomats from other countries will come to meet him, so that Tuodi's reputation as a handsome guy will spread abroad. ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?" asked Ye Ni straight to the point.
"Didn't I say that a good lord, image is also very important. Dye Yue deliberately sold a pass, saying, "I'm observing your image." ”
"My ...... Image?" A bold idea came to Ye Ni's mind, and this idea was so unrealistic, it made her heart beat faster and her breathing became short.
Yueran looked at Ye Ni's cheeks that were gradually turning red, "You're the crown princess." ”
Ye Ni woke up from a dream and said, "Yes, I am the crown princess." A crown princess who assassinated the emperor at a wedding banquet. ”
"Others say you are, are you?" Ran Yue stood up from the edge of the bed and looked at Ye Ni with a smile: "Since others say that you are you, then others say that you are not, aren't you not?"
"I really didn't assassinate Emperor Baichuan. Ye Ni hugged the quilt and began to whimper quietly.
"I know. Dye Yue said: "The chosen commoner crown princess was framed for murdering the emperor at her wedding banquet, and even wanted to kill her as soon as possible. Isn't that the story?"
Ye Ni nodded, like a boat in the center of the whirlpool, even if she knew that her fate was to be swallowed by the whirlpool in the end, she could only choose to go with the flow.
Later, the crown princess escaped and became the commoner again. When he ran in the tavern, he said that he leaked his mouth, in fact, it was the emperor who assassinated Emperor Baichuan - that is, the future emperor Tuo - marriage was just a part of the plan of Emperor Zituo to assassinate Emperor Baichuan, and the new wife was just a knife that Emperor Zituo would use, so that he could sit in the position of emperor logically, rather than in the name of killing his father and killing the king. ”
When Ran Yue said these words, she didn't make any waves, as if she was just telling an ancient story, but halfway through hearing it, Ye Ni had already raised her head, obviously tears were still slowly flowing down her face, but there was only shock in her eyes. You're not stupid, anyone can imagine how much the reputation of the royal family will be affected if the rumors really spread like this.
"So what will become of this crown princess? She will be the object of the people's protection, and the source of all discontent. She would become a leader, leading the indignant populace against the royal family who had been in this position for too long. ”
"I can't!" Ye Ni didn't dare to listen any longer, she never thought that she would become the crown princess, let alone the leader of the rebel army.
"I know you can't," Ran Yue said honestly: "I'll help you, as long as you're willing to stand up, we'll do the things behind the scenes, I can tell you that more than half of these ministers in the royal family are dissatisfied with the royal family." ”
"I can't. Ye Ni shook her head desperately, finally she had a chance to get out of this whirlpool, and she must not fall deeper into it.
"What do you think......" Ran Yue approached Ye Ni again, this time with her hands propped up on the edge of the bed, and her body leaned directly towards Ye Ni. Until the corner of Ran Yue's mouth could reach Ye Ni's ears: "I told you so much, if you don't agree, can you still get out of this door?"
Ye Ni couldn't stop her trembling, and the tears that she had just stopped flowed uncontrollably.
