Having prepared herself mentally, when Yun Qing received this answer, she only had the feeling that she had expected it.
1130 unconsciously lowered his voice: "Host, please listen to me. The main point is that he was indeed initially identified as a dangerous person, and if we don't take precautions, he will be the biggest variable."
After all, Xie Rang was a famous historical figure and a real tyrant. He had little impact on the common people, but he had a huge impact on those around him.
"However, I had not yet come to your side at that time, so all the protective measures were custom-made for you by the default system."
1130 quickly distanced itself from the situation, after all, things were complicated. What if the host got angry and it got dragged into it? It was just a weak, pitiful, and helpless system.
You can't blame it for this.
Yun Qing took a deep breath: "Explain clearly, what did you do to him?"
She had a premonition that this might be the reason why Xie Rang had become awkward lately. If what the system said was true, she probably wouldn't be able to wait for Xie Rang to confess in detail on his birthday if she went to Jiangnan. In that case, she might as well start with the system.
1130 hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you sure you want to hear this?"
"Is there anything you can't say?" Yun Qing thought to herself, "I'd rather die knowing the truth. It's already been used. Even if I don't accept it, the final result won't change. It's just a matter of time. I'll find out sooner or later."
"All right."
1130 was helpless; it never went against its host's wishes, as the host itself had said.
It still carefully considered how to put it: "In certain special circumstances, he can hear what you are thinking, but if it is about revealing specific historical trends, he cannot hear it. When he truly trusts you, this ability will disappear."
The system's words were like a thunderclap, suddenly exploding in Yun Qing's heart.
For a moment, her mind went blank, and when she came to her senses, she simply didn't know what to say.
My first reaction was—
"Did he hear all the little tyrant I called out to in my mind?"
1130 shyly: "Maybe."
Yun Qing rubbed her forehead; one shocking piece of news after another had been circulating today, and she needed to process it all.
Perhaps there is more.
She asked with difficulty, "He also knows that I'm disguised as a man?"
11:30 Silence.
Yun Qing choked with emotion.
How long ago was that? It seems that she only thought about that one time when she was on her southern tour. It was from that time that Xie Rang's attitude towards her began to change subtly. The caution hidden in his actions began to become blatant, until it was brought up at the imperial palace.
The little rascal, he's got quite a long way to go.
She wondered why he had suddenly become so reckless; it turned out he already knew her secret.
Yun Qing wasn't exactly angry, but at least at this moment, she couldn't completely let her guard down.
Even the confession had to be made on her birthday, just in case she got angry and retaliated later; it was simply outrageous.
1130 cautiously asked, "Host, are you still going to Jiangnan?"
"Go, why wouldn't you go?" Yun Qing had no intention of making things difficult for 1130. After all, this matter was not something it could decide. The system had essentially given her a second life, and she still had to complete the tasks that needed to be done. Her voice carried an imperceptible chill. "Some people always need to learn a lesson."
At 11:30, a candle was lit for Xie Rang.
Xie Rang arrived at the Li residence at this time.
He didn't need to announce his arrival, but he still politely knocked on Yun Qing's door when he got there.
Yun Qing raised her eyes: "Go in."
The system quietly disappeared; it didn't want to watch the drama unfold, otherwise it wouldn't even know it had gotten itself involved.
Xie Rang stepped into the room and vaguely sensed that something was amiss. Yun Qing's expression also seemed strange. Suppressing his unease, he asked, "Has the Grand Tutor seen the urgent report?"
"I've finished reading it." Yun Qing said calmly. "I plan to send Mr. Yu, and the Imperial Hospital should also send some imperial physicians."
Now that we're discussing serious matters, Yun Qing decided not to argue with him for the time being and offered some constructive suggestions.
For future generations, epidemics will be nothing more than a stroke in the history books, but they have truly experienced them. Yun Qing would not and could not joke about such a thing, and taking measures is necessary.
"That's only right. I'll issue the decree as soon as I get back."
Xie Rang also attached great importance to this matter.
Up until this point, his mind was still calm, but Yun Qing's next words shattered that calm.
“An epidemic doesn’t just happen out of nowhere. Your Majesty should know that this epidemic is not simple. It’s hard to say whether someone is behind it. For both reason and morality, the court should investigate thoroughly. So I’ve decided that I will go with them.”
"no!"
Xie Rang refused without even thinking.
The panic in his heart had grown to its maximum at this moment, and he was almost forced to speak with a trembling voice: "There are so many officials in the court, why should the Grand Tutor take the risk? Why not send the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review? He is eager to see his son and is the most suitable candidate."
On the way here, Xie Rang was still uneasy and sent Lin Chen to deliver a message to the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
He thought of what Yun Qing had said and felt that he wouldn't feel at ease entrusting the task to anyone else. Only the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, who loved his son dearly, would be slightly better. People with concerns are more likely to put their hearts into their work.
Xie Rang didn't understand why Yun Qing insisted on going, but he couldn't just watch Yun Qing take the risk.
He stepped forward, his voice hoarse: "I know the Grand Tutor cares about the people, but this throne was secured with the Grand Tutor's help. With the Grand Tutor here, it is all worthwhile. Please don't go."
To some extent, Xie Rang was indeed skilled at playing the innocent. He knew where Yun Qing's weaknesses lay, which allowed him to manipulate her every time. Much of this was undoubtedly due to his mind-reading ability.
Yun Qing knew this was a method the system used to protect her, no wonder Xie Rang was so cunning.
Putting aside the past, ever since her identity was exposed, Xie Rang has been watching her cover up and occasionally making small moves to disturb her peace of mind. Every move he makes is full of scheming.
She realized he also needed to calm down.
Therefore, I am unusually determined this time.
“I understand Your Majesty’s reasoning, but I must go, and you cannot stop me.”
Even assuming the system works, I'm the only one who can guarantee my safe return. Why send other officials?
What's the meaning?
Xie Rang's mind went blank for a moment. Before he could think of how to persuade him, he was stunned by this sentence. Yun Qing noticed that slight change and curled her lips without making a sound.
It seems they heard it.
Yun Qing switched her hand to support her chin, savoring the pleasure of taking the initiative, and slowly asked, "Your Majesty, just say whether you agree or disagree?"
Whether you agree or disagree, the result is the same.
