Jiang Ranli was so frustrated she felt like spitting up blood. She had just been confessed to by the male god she had a crush on for several years, and before she could even hold his hand, she tran...
Jiang Ranli hadn't spoken for several days. Her throat was very uncomfortable and her voice was particularly hoarse, but she didn't care about that. She just asked Yinzhen, "Is what the emperor said true?"
Upon hearing this, all of Yinzhen's joy froze on his face, but he finally nodded.
Seeing him nod, Jiang Ranli finally let go of the worry in her heart and said to him, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yinzhen felt a pang of pain in his heart, but he suppressed all his emotions, "Are you feeling unwell? Are you thirsty? Are you hungry?"
Jiang Ranli shook her head. Her allergies had been cured and she didn't feel unwell at the moment. She was just unconscious for too long and was still a little groggy. As for thirst and hunger, she had just woken up and didn't feel any yet.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and her body recovered quickly during these days.
"Your Majesty, when will you let me leave?" Jiang Ranli asked again in the Yangxin Palace.
Yinzhen lowered his eyes and looked at the pile of memorials. When he heard her voice, he quickly raised his eyes. He did not say anything, but remained silent for a long time before handing a stack of memorials to Jiang Ranli.
Jiang Ranli didn't understand what he meant, but when he read the contents of the memorial, panic appeared in his eyes.
"emperor...".
"Call me the Fourth Master."
Jiang Ranli's words were interrupted, and seeing Yinzhen's persistent eyes, she immediately changed her words, "Fourth Master, Yinzhen is your brother. You know him and his character. If there were no reason, he would never do these things."
Hearing this, Yinzhen's eyes flickered slightly. He stared at the anxious and worried Jiang Ranli. In his memory, every time Jiang Ranli's emotions fluctuated, it was because of Yin'er.
"What do you think we should do?" After a while, Yinzhen spoke.
This question made Jiang Ranli at a loss as to how to answer. The memorial was delivered by an official from Xining, saying that Yinzhen ignored the imperial envoy and was still arrogant. This was an incident with a very bad impact, because the imperial envoy was sent by Yinzhen, and ignoring the imperial envoy was equivalent to ignoring the emperor.
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Ranli mustered up the courage to meet Yinzhen's gaze, "Fourth Master, do you still remember Linghu Shiyi?"
Yinzhen nodded. The chaos not long ago was caused by that man. He brought people from Shanxi and Shaanxi to support Yin'er in seizing the throne.
"The Fourth Master is now in charge of the world. There is nothing in this world that you don't know. In this case, you should also know Yinzhen's attitude towards Linghu Shiyi. Linghu Shiyi regards Yinzhen as his savior, so when he heard that he was in trouble, he rushed to help and expressed his willingness to assist Yinzhen."
Having said that, Jiang Ranli stopped talking and looked at Yinzhen. Seeing that his expression remained the same, he continued, "Ever since the Emperor passed away, the border has been in turmoil. Therefore, if Yinzhen had second thoughts, he could have borrowed Linghu Shiyi's power to make the situation even more turbulent. At that time, it would not be impossible for him to win. But he didn't do that. First, he didn't care about the throne, second, he couldn't bear to see the people suffer, and third, he had no ill intentions towards you."
Yinzhen was silent. Jiang Ranli's words reminded him of the news from the spies.
The news said that Yinzhen rejected Linghu Shiyi without any hesitation and said, "We brothers have no reason to fight for the world."
"Fourth Master, he is your brother. He has repeatedly offended you, not because he has any intention of rebellion, but because he just wants to rescue me," Jiang Ranli said again.
