"Who are you?" Princess Chang'an was so frightened that she fell to the ground: "You...you are not Ziyi."
The man in black didn't speak, but merely glanced at her indifferently.
Princess Chang'an's already pale face turned even paler in an instant.
"What's going on? What's happening? It's impossible, this is absolutely impossible," Princess Chang'an murmured, her expression turning blank again.
Emperor Yuanwu's eyes flashed coldly: "Tell me... who exactly are you?"
The man in black remained silent.
Princess Chang'an, still unable to accept reality, walked to his side. She grabbed the man in black by the collar and shook him violently: "Who are you? Why? Speak... speak..."
“Princess Chang’an, I’m sorry.” The man in black looked guilty. “I’m just a guard by the Crown Prince’s side. My grandfather was skilled in ventriloquism. I grew up with my grandfather and know a little bit about it.”
"So..." Princess Chang'an was completely stunned.
“So all the meetings we had in the palace before were on my behalf, in place of the Crown Prince.” The man lowered his eyes: “I only used ventriloquism to imitate the Crown Prince’s voice.”
The man said.
He then switched between the prince's voice and his own voice, saying a few words to prove that what he said was true.
What! ?
Princess Chang'an felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water from head to toe; her head felt throbbing.
"Impossible, he wouldn't lie to me."
"He promised to take me and my mother away from the Yuan Kingdom and to give me a happy life."
"He also said that I was definitely carrying a boy. He had said that he would pass the Ningguo Kingdom on to our son in the future."
Why did he lie to me?!
As Princess Chang'an spoke, she covered her face with both hands and staggered to her feet.
She stumbled and staggered, as if she had gone mad, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing.
“Princess!” The man in black said solemnly, “I really can’t bear to lie to you anymore. You are truly a good girl. Those words were said by me, not by the Crown Prince…”
The man in black paused here: "...The Crown Prince said that as long as I coax you into giving birth to the child and let me take the child back to Ningguo, my mission will be... over!"
Princess Chang'an stared at the kneeling man for a long while, then suddenly burst into loud laughter.
Emperor Yuanwu and the Empress Dowager looked at each other.
He was just about to find someone to drag her back to her palace.
The man kneeling on the ground suddenly curled up on the ground.
My arms were covered in goosebumps, my face turned pale and then blue, my limbs were trembling, and I was sweating profusely.
His expression was ferocious, and he painfully clawed at the ground with his hands.
The places where he grabbed left shocking bloodstains.
He also let out a muffled groan of pain.
"What's wrong with this person? He was perfectly fine just now, how did he suddenly become like this?"
"Could he be pretending because he thinks the emperor is going to kill him?"
"I don't think it's an act. Look at his lips, they're all white, and the sweat on his forehead doesn't look fake either."
"Could this person be possessed by a ghost? There are all sorts of strange and unusual things happening in Ningguo..."
While everyone was discussing it...
A woman, dressed in a blue robe and white gauze, walked out of a palace next to the Cold Palace.
Her skin was as white as snow, without any makeup, and her eyes were like a pool of clear water, with a cold and aloof yet lively quality that was also captivating.
Her every glance exudes a refined and elegant air that captivates all who behold her, making them feel ashamed of their own inferiority and不敢亵渎 (dare not profane her).
Emperor Yuanwu's eyes narrowed slightly.
How could he not remember that there was such a stunningly beautiful woman in this palace?
