Chen Xianzhi felt helpless and distressed, looking at his once innocent little sister now so haggard, and he was exhausted.
The words I wanted to blame were replaced by deep heartache and I couldn't bear to blame.
"I know you have your own difficulties, but you don't have to do this. Princess Xiaoting is not someone you can threaten with death."
"Brother, what do you mean?" Gong Yunfei frowned. Could it be that the second princess finally agreed to come to marry because she was not afraid of death? If the elder brother had not poisoned him, he would not have known that the poison was not what he thought or said. Only after the poison was given, the elder brother would have discovered that it was him who had given the poisonous medicine.
But now, the eldest senior brother accompanied her to the marriage and was chased again. What happened?
Seeing the nervous and confused face of the junior sister, Chen Xianzhi secretly sighed in his heart. He knew that the junior sister would always have only Situ Xunxiao in her heart, but he still felt sad because she was haunted and worried about someone else's soul.
Although secretly mocking herself for not being able to let go, she still couldn't let go of the person in front of her, so she told him everything.
"Little Junior Sister, you don't have to think so much. Everything is still under control."
"Brother, if you don't blame me, are you still willing to care about me?" Gong Yunfei said with tears in her eyes.
"You know from the beginning to the end, it is impossible for me to reject you. No matter what happens, you are still my junior sister. I once promised you that as long as it makes you happy, I will do my best to do it." Chen Xianzhi said slowly.
Gong Yunfei burst into tears and laughed, "Big Brother, do you mean you are still willing to help me?"
"If I don't help you, you will just do something risky on your own. If you do that, you will only hurt yourself. I know your situation, how can I let you take this risk?" Chen Xianzhi said helplessly, "But there is one thing you must promise me."
Seeing the serious look on Senior Brother's face, Gong Yunfei nodded solemnly and said, "Senior Brother, don't worry, I know the limits. What's going on?"
"It's about Princess Xiaoting." Chen Xianzhi said, "When I put your medicine into the princess's medicine, I already knew that you would not leave any room for yourself. There is no antidote for this poison!"
Chen the Prophet's words made Gong Yunfei lower her head in shame and wait quietly for the next words.
"However, man proposes, God disposes. You know, the princess is not afraid of death at all. When I appealed to her with emotion and reason, and used threats and inducements, she remained unmoved..." Chen Xianzhi told her everything that happened. These words and these things surprised Gong Yunfei.
Is there a princess in this world who is not afraid of death and does not care about her life? If someone is not afraid of death and does not care about her life, she believes it. However, this princess of the royal family, a daughter of a rich family, has always been high and mighty, enjoying glory and wealth, how could she not be afraid of death?
But Gong Yunfei knew very well that anyone could lie to her, but her senior brother would never lie to her! And a man who was almost killed by her was actually willing to help her? This marriage was actually a self-directed and self-acted drama.
Gong Yunfei bit her lip, with a look of guilt and self-blame on her face, "Big Brother, you must cure Princess Xiaoting's poison, otherwise, I will never be at peace in my life."
The little junior sister's nervousness made Chen Xianzhi feel much better. Even though she had no choice, the little junior sister was still kind in her heart. As the saying goes, if a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Everything she did was just out of selfishness, not unforgivable. Chen Xianzhi kept making excuses for himself and for his little junior sister.
During this long night, every place and every corner had its own calculations. No one knew how the gears of fate would move.
The next morning
Zong Zheng Xiaoting had just finished washing up when she heard Princess Yunluo asking for an audience. She was sitting in front of the dressing table and raised her eyebrows. "We just parted unhappily last night, but today she has the nerve to ask for an audience so politely. What's the plan?"
Qingqing embellished her master's hairpins with beads, and frowned in confusion, "Princess, if you don't want to see me, then don't see me! Anyway, you've already said that it's not a good idea."
"That may not be the case." Zong Zheng Xiaoting shook his head. "Instead of letting the enemy do something in secret, it is better to test it out in the open!"
"But Princess, Princess Yunluo was so rude and unreasonable last night. What should we do if she starts beating people for no reason again today?" Qingqing reminded worriedly.
"No matter how savage and unreasonable she is, she will learn from her mistakes. Besides, Qingqing, do you think that princesses of the royal family are all brainless?" Zongzheng Xiaoting shook his head and smiled, "She is so arrogant because, firstly, she thinks that I have no status in the heart of the prince, and secondly, she thinks that princesses who are married to the prince are not favored. But after yesterday's lesson, she naturally understands that even if she hates me, she still needs to show some superficial respect. In other words, even if she wants to eat me alive, she must endure it and be respectful in front of others."
Qingqing couldn't help but exclaimed, "But if the princess is like this, isn't it dangerous?"
"Qingqing thinks that it will be very dangerous when the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, but don't forget that even if she targets me in public, you can still harm me secretly. In other words, no matter whether she is respectful to you in public, she is taking advantage of her position in secret. It is hard to guard against. So, is it a good deal if you just seek superficial comfort?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting disagreed and amused himself.
Qingqing was amused by her master's words and chuckled, "Only you, Princess, would think this is a profit. By the way, Princess, before you asked Qingqing to pretend that you love money more than anything else, what about now?"
"Now..." Zong Zheng Xiaoting stroked his chin and thought, "Now, I'm afraid it's not necessary anymore."
"Why?"
"I asked you to pretend to be like this before in order to conceal our tracks. Whether the target was Chen Xianzhi or Situ Xunxiao, at least we succeeded at that time. But now, my identity has been exposed. It would be hypocritical to pretend again." Zongzheng Xiaoting shook his head and raised the corners of his mouth. "Besides, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. I'm afraid those people with ulterior motives have already investigated it. If we both return to our original nature, wouldn't we be happy and at ease?"
Zong Zheng Xiaoting blinked at Qingqing and said with ill intention, "What's more, this princess is thinking about taking advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune."
"Then... Qingqing, go and invite Princess Yunluo in?" Qingqing's voice was filled with excitement, and at Zongzheng Xiaoting's signal, she retreated.
