Ling'er looked at Huanhuan in horror, and couldn't believe that the young lady, who had always been arrogant, really knelt in front of the princess.

"Please, princess, give me the truth."

"Then you also give me the truth."

Huanhuan said silently, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the princess's gourd, so he had to look at her in a daze.

"I want to ask you, are you really pregnant with the prince's child?"

"Nope."

"Did the prince ever pamper you?"

"Never."

Huanhuan thought that she would ask some tricky and difficult questions, but she didn't want to ask herself if she had any children and whether she had sex with Li Zerong. In the end, it's a woman who is crazy about love.

"Really?!"

Gao Yu was emotional, and his joy was beyond words. But then her smile was clouded by jealousy. She asked, "Then are you willing to become the prince's concubine?" ”

"Please tell me the truth, princess."

Huanhuan doesn't dwell on her words, what she desperately needs now is an answer. An answer that gave her the courage to completely break with Li Zerong. Or another truth she really wanted to hear.

"Well, lest I tell you this to-day, you will have no more thoughts about him. After all, the Lin Mansion was destroyed, and it also had the credit of the prince. ”

"Please make it clear to the princess."

"Do you know where Qin Niang's homeland is? And do you know her past? Her relationship with the prince? My aunt has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and the harem brawl is hundreds of times worse than in ordinary places! She didn't have the heart to worry about Qin Niang, nor did she think of using letters to lure her out of the house, and she didn't expect that the truth that Qin Niang kept was related to that slut.

But the strange thing is that after my aunt met Qin Niang, within a few days, she asked the prince to make you a side concubine, and wrote to me to ask me not to hurt you again.

You say, who paved the way for you behind your back, and calculated my aunt's debt to Concubine Shun and Qin Niang when she was young, so that she could protect you and give you honor and happiness, even if you are the daughter of a criminal minister.

This strategy doesn't stop there. Qin Niang is just a little maid, and she can be used to this point, and the strategy of the person who plays chess is so high that no one can match it. However, it actually protects you by the way, which makes people unhappy.

It's ridiculous, the prince thinks he can hide it from you, but in fact, I guess you have a plan in your heart. Don't think I'm stupid, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, drawing a bow and dancing a sword, I'm proficient in everything, and it's even more rare to treat the prince sincerely, but he dares to calculate me and calculate the Gao family. But what does it matter? The only thing he can rely on is the Gao family......"

As soon as Gao Yu spoke, Huanhuan knew the answer, although there were conjectures, but after he really learned the truth, the pain and hatred in his heart still uncontrollably arose.

"You said, when you were young, when the prince approached you, did you want to get the support of the Lin Mansion, or did he already know that your father wanted to rebel."

Gao Yu thought that the prince had protected Huanhuan by taking advantage of Qin Niang's death, she felt sick and uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but find Huanhuan's unhappiness.

"The princess asked me if I would like to be the prince's side concubine, and I thought about it."

Gao Yu saw that her expression was painful, with tears on her face, she was proud, and was about to say "It's good if you know what", when she heard the voice of the woman kneeling in front of her firmly.

"I would like to be the prince's side concubine."

"Miss!"

"Ridiculous, do you think you don't have royal blood in your belly, and you deserve it?" Gao Yu sneered, with a wicked smile on his face after the success of the plan, and said coquettishly, "Just wait for tomorrow I will invite the imperial doctor in the palace to take your pulse." You say, a child can still appear out of thin air? Your Majesty has also heard of this matter, the sin of bullying the king, as the daughter of you, a criminal minister, I don't know how many times you have to die to redeem it! ”

When Ling'er heard this, she tugged at Huanhuan's dress and tried to make her soft and say good things.

Gao Yutoe looked at Huanhuan proudly, the dissatisfaction that had accumulated in her heart a few days ago gradually eased a little, and she was about to ridicule Huanhuan a few more words, looking for her unhappiness, when she saw the woman kneeling at her feet like a lost dog, she stood up.

Huanhuan sneered, and after saluting the princess, he said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "As I wish, I hope that the princess will recognize me as her sister and let me stay by the prince's side and be his side concubine." ”

"You're looking for death!" Gao Yu gritted his teeth.

"I finally get your point."

Huanhuan smiled and approached the princess and whispered in her ear. Just like what Gao Yu did to herself in the past, she said the most vicious words in the world in her ear with the same tone and the same way of speaking.

"Understand what?"

"Your stupidity, your pride, and your ugliness."

The moment Huanhuan knelt down, she suddenly figured out a lot. She pitied her own humility, hated her incompetence, and hated herself for repeatedly kneeling and begging for mercy.

If fate is unfair, then strive to turn the tables against the wind. Do your best to love what you love, and hate what you hate in your heart.

She deliberately provoked Princess Gao Yu, she was waiting, waiting for the princess's reaction. At the same time, she was also moving quickly towards the lake, and the princess's words reminded her that if her fake pregnancy was known, the hat of the bully would not be buckled on Li Zerong's head, but on her head. Now that she wants to live happily and with a clear sense of right and wrong, she can no longer bear the responsibility for her crimes.

Thankfully, she figured out what to do.

As Huanhuan expected, the princess walked towards her closely, Juanjuanyu's hands were clenched into fists, menacing.

Huanhuan took a deep breath, his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

A little closer, yes, a little closer.

Huanhuan pretended to be afraid, his thin shoulders trembled slightly, his eyes showed fear, and he approached the place where the slave was clothed step by step. She was ready, and when the princess punched her in the face, she took advantage of the situation and fell into the lake. On the grounds of drowning, he can make up for the lie of the king, and he can also take advantage of the situation to pour the blame on the princess. The slave standing not far away is the best witness and the best helper.

What's more, He Quan is here.

She believed that He Quan would definitely save her, just like when she climbed the wall and landed that day, he hugged her and protected her in the crook of his arm.

"Smack!"

Gao Yu slapped Huanhuan hard, and Huanhuan was slapped unsteadily, but not to the point of falling into the lake.

So she covered her face in pain, looked at Gao Yu angrily, and tried her best to tear up her voice angrily: "Please princess fulfill me as a side concubine!" ”

Gao Yu was already furious, she slapped her backhand again, and scolded in her mouth: "! ”

The slap didn't hurt as much as it was, but it just hit Huanhuan's left ear, and when she poured into the lake, her left ear roared, accompanied by a piercing flute sound.

The sound of the flute was the same as that played by her master Nan Yanchen that day to attract her to look back. Before she could think about it, she fell into the lake.

She thought that the lake water would be very cold, and she didn't want to have a trace of warmth, but the moment she closed her eyes in the water, she felt relaxed all over, and sighed in her heart, it was good to die like this.

Hwan Hwan looked at the cloudy points of light on the surface of the water and thought he saw the moon. When she felt that she could no longer hold her breath and her lungs exploded, she swung her arms and wanted to swim to the shore.

She thought that someone would rush into the water, grab her by the waist, and lead her out of the water, this person might be He Li, maybe it would be an unknown slave......

Could it be Li Zerong?

If it were Li Zerong, maybe she would choose to forget the past, just like when she was young, she accompanied him, accompanied him to put lanterns and make wishes, and painted double butterflies with him under the begonia tree......

But she didn't see anyone, only clumps of black fog in front of her, and she began to realize the danger of her situation.

She swung her arms as hard as she could, trying to get out of her predicament.

She can play in the water, she has been urinating since she was a child, and she knows what kind of movements she can do to bring her heavy body to the surface.

But she overestimated herself.

She couldn't shake her arms or thighs with all her might, and she twitched twice from time to time. She couldn't hold her breath any longer, and after exhaling strings of bubbles, she felt the discomfort of her nose choking on the lake water, and the helplessness of her scalp tingling, and she glanced at the pear white of her cuffs, floating leisurely in the water, like the tail of a koi fish swimming in a lotus leaf.

The feeling of pain and helplessness lasted for a long time, and Huanhuan felt that her eyelids were like a weighing weight of 10,000 catties, so heavy that she couldn't open her eyes anymore.

But she understands what it means to close her eyes.

It means that her consciousness may completely disappear into this world with the darkness reflected in her eyes.

But how could she die willingly, she still had her brother, Qin Niang's grievances, the people she wanted to protect, Ling'er, and Master...... No matter how unbearable this world is, there are times when peach blossoms bloom.

She can't die like this!

But she had no strength to struggle, she felt that she was indeed going to die, in a trance, she saw her toddler young son, saw the blurred face of her deceased mother, saw the back of her brother sleeping in the school, saw a young man in white, standing under the begonia tree, and she painted a pair of ink butterflies, full of tenderness to promise her a lifetime of a couple, and saw a man in a dark clothes, holding her almost naked back to the room to dress...... At the end of the picture, she stayed in the lake, and the moment she closed her eyes, she saw a black-clothed young man with eyes full of spring breeze and willows, dressed like an ordinary person, holding a bag of candied fruit in his hand, handing it to her stupidly, signaling her to accept the candied fruit......

"Brother, eat preserves."

These were the last words that rang in her ears while she was still conscious.

Maybe this is fate, she is innocent, kind and lovely, so she made up her mind to harm others, so she made herself "dead" first.

Oh, this bullshit fate!

……

The Royal Palace, in the main hall.

In the palace of the imperial city at sunset, in addition to majesty, it is desolate.

On the royal chair sat an old man, the dragon-patterned Xuanyi was very sickly on him, but his eyes were blazing, like a sharp blade, enough to peel off the skin of all lies.

This is Li Zerong's father, Li Hao, the emperor of the key country.

"Are you pleased that I have called you only today?"

When Li Zerong heard this, the fox's eyes drooped slightly, and without thinking, "Joy." ”

Li Hao, who was sitting on the throne, did not have a little wave on his face when he heard this answer.

It stands to reason that the prince of the key country is buried today, the whole world is mourning, and he doesn't see a smiling face on the street, and this Li Zerong is ashamed to speak in front of the emperor of the world, and he personally speaks of joy, which is really a contradiction.

But the old emperor was not angry, but there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes showed appreciation, his voice was hoarse, and his arm was raised cowardly, pointing at Li Zerong.

"I know that you are a smart person, but if you want to be an emperor, it is not enough to be smart. I know what you do. You teamed up with Gao Xiang and the queen to bring down the An family, completely shattering your second brother's power, which is a good move. ”

Li Zerong shut up and waited for the following.

"But you are not a chess player, you and Gao are the same chess pieces, and only the person who really plays chess can decide the outcome." The old emperor stood up in his chair, "E'er, what do you say?" ”

Li Zerong was silent and didn't answer, but raised his eyes to look at the old emperor who was high above with compassion.

"The chess piece of the Gao family is difficult to eradicate from the chessboard, which is not expected by the chess player." The old emperor sighed, and walked towards Li Zerong with his weak body, "Maybe the people in the chess game will have a way." ”

"Since they can't eradicate it, they will use chess to surround it, exploit its power day by day, and raise new upstarts."

"You really didn't disappoint your father, so have you figured out which chess pieces to use?"

"There's no hurry."

Li Zerong knew what his purpose was, but he just wanted to probe him and ask where the rest of his comrades were. Ever since he entered the main hall and saw his father sitting on the royal chair, he had a little bit of trouble. The ruthlessness of the emperor is often in an inadvertent moment.

When the old emperor heard this, he burst out laughing. Stretched out his thin hand and patted Li Zerong's shoulder, "I will let He Wuhou and General Guan stand behind you and let you transfer ten thousand troops." But it's not the pass-on of your dreams, it's a task for you to complete. ”

Li Zerong raised his eyes again, and when he met those sharp eyes, he couldn't help but be shocked.

"Please make it clear to my father."
