Chapter 267: The Man Behind the Scenes
"I just want to know, why did you design the Puyun Temple?"
Xiaoxi has completely gained her trust, and if she continues to stay in the imperial city, she may play a big role in the future, and why should she take the risk to expose her this time.
Nangong Sheng looked at Yun Qingyan, his eyes were shining with a faint light, but he didn't answer.
Seeing Nangong Sheng like this, Yun Qingyan also knew that he shouldn't be able to ask anything, and his eyes turned to Xiaoxi, "Have you ever thought about how Rong Lu would feel if Rong Lu knew that you saved him at the beginning was just part of the plan?" ”
Xiao Xi's eyes trembled for a moment, and his face showed a little hesitation, but he soon changed to a look of not caring at all.
"From the beginning, he was here to fulfill His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's purpose, what does he want to do with me, is it possible that His Royal Highness the Princess really thinks that we are already friends."
Xiaoxi's tone was full of mockery, as if he was laughing at Yun Qingyan's innocence.
And Yun Qingyan looked at Xiaoxi's eyes, "At least I really regarded you as a friend before, I believe that Rong Lu must think so too." It's just a pity that now it seems that we are looking at the wrong person. ”
"It's come to this, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess doesn't have the slightest point in saying this, anyway, now that my identity has been exposed, it's impossible to go back to before."
Xiao Xi's tone was calm, but a touch of regret suddenly crossed his eyes.
In fact, she didn't think about it, just opening a pharmacy in the imperial city of Chu Yunguo, and it seemed to be very good to live a leisurely life, but she couldn't. Not to mention that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the grace to cultivate her, and she also knows very well that since she is already under the command of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is impossible to be truly free in this life.
Nangong Sheng raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Xi, who was standing on the side, and then turned to Yun Qingyan and said, "Now that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has found out, what are you going to do?" Do you send troops to surround this post house and arrest the people, or report the whole thing to your father? ”
Yun Qingyan chuckled, "Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say such nonsense, isn't the situation very clear now, everything is just my conjecture, and there is no evidence at all." ”
Even if Xiaoxi really admits it in front of her face now, if she really sends someone to arrest them, she can naturally overturn her current statement at any time at that time. What's more, no matter what, Nangong Sheng's identity is not ordinary, if he can't hit with one blow, he may give them a reason to blame Chu Yunguo, which will only make things more troublesome at that time.
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is indeed a smart person." Nangong Sheng nodded, clearly satisfied with Yun Qingyan's words.
"Nangong Sheng, although we don't know exactly what you want to do yet. But what I can tell you is that no matter what you do, we will keep an eye on you until all your plans are shattered. ”
Judging from the current situation, Nangong Sheng's motives are indeed unclear. However, no matter what his purpose was, it would definitely not be something beneficial to Chu Yunguo.
Nangong Sheng hooked his lips and smiled, "Heh, then let's wait and see." ”
He also wanted to see what other means Yun Qingyan and Feng Yihan could use together.
Yun Qingyan had already left the post house, and not long after Yun Qingyan left, Nangong Sheng also sent Xiaoxi to retreat, and then spoke behind him: "Since you have arrived, come out." ”
The next moment, Yun Ze walked out from the back of the room and arrived in front of Nangong Sheng.
Nangong Sheng looked at Yun Ze with a meaningful smile on his face.
"Your imperial sister is indeed very smart, but no matter how smart she is, I'm afraid she didn't expect that you have already cooperated with us."
Yun Ze sat down at the table slowly, picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Isn't this exactly what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants, if the imperial sister has already suspected me now, I'm afraid that in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince, I no longer have any value of cooperation."
"The Seventh Prince's words are wrong." Nangong Sheng paused for a moment, and the interest on his face was even stronger, "Being able to poison Yun Yao unknowingly, and there have been no clues left so far, this prince also admires the Seventh Prince very much." ”
Yun Ze raised his eyebrows, "This is thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for sacrificing his guilt to cover up for me." ”
"It's just a pity that this time my people were exposed, but it still didn't completely put this eldest princess in a predicament, and then she was afraid that she would continue to investigate."
Just now, Yun Qingyan asked himself why he wanted to expose Xiaoxi, but in fact, there was only one purpose, that is, to use the death of the host to prevent Yun Qingyan from investigating the incense burner for a while. But I didn't expect this matter to be solved by her so quickly.
Yun Qingyan was indeed smarter and sharper than he expected at the beginning, if it weren't for the relationship between Yun Qingyan and Feng Yihan, he would be quite interested in marrying such a crown princess.
"It doesn't matter anymore, now that I've destroyed the last shred of evidence, even if I continue to investigate, it will definitely be impossible to find my head again." Yun Ze hooked the corners of his mouth, and his tone was determined.
Looking at Yun Ze's appearance, Nangong Sheng felt a little curious in his heart.
"This prince wants to know, when did the Seventh Prince start planning for the crown prince's throne?"
This time, not long after he sent an envoy to Chu Yunguo, Yun Ze took the initiative to come to the door and offered to cooperate with him, and he also sent someone to investigate, only to find that the other party had been unknown in the palace for so many years, but now according to Yun Ze's methods, he was definitely just hiding his strength before.
"Actually, it didn't take long, probably because I was poisoned by the concubine to frame the imperial sister."
Nangong Sheng raised his eyebrows, "If there is no problem with the news of this prince's investigation, it should be the eldest princess who saved you this time, right?" ”
"Yes, it does." Yun Ze paused, "So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that I should be grateful to the imperial sister for this matter, didn't I plan against them behind my back?" ”
Nangong Sheng didn't answer, just continued to look at Yun Ze quietly, waiting for his next words.
Yun Ze retracted his gaze, stared at the teacup in his hand, and played slowly.
"At that time, it was indeed the imperial sister who saved me, but it was precisely because of that time that I understood that if I didn't have the strength, in the eyes of others, I was just a chess piece that could be used at any time and even killed."
For so many years, he has been in obscurity in the palace for too long, so long that he has a feeling of suffocation. even felt that maybe one day he died, and his father and others just sighed softly, and then left it behind.
This is not the life he wants at all, so he has to fight, he has to take it!
