Di Beiyao felt as if dark clouds were rolling down his head. Oh no, judging from the situation, they probably already know what she's done.
Heavens above, is it really necessary to treat a weak woman like this?
He braced himself and climbed down from the eaves, stopping a few steps away from Jun Wuji, and bowed in greeting.
"Greetings, my lord. You have come to see me so late at night. Is there anything you wish to do?"
There was no other way; I couldn't just confess without being told, so I had to pretend I knew nothing.
Looking at the meek and submissive person before him, and recalling his own suspicions, Jun Wuji's eyes darkened slightly.
With a slight parting of her thin, cool lips, she said, "I heard you beat the Crown Prince." This was not a question, but a statement.
Di Beiyao: "...!"
Heaven is going to destroy her!
Jun Wuji really found out, so how is she going to explain her shocking behavior now?
A sudden flash of inspiration struck him. He steadied himself and said, "My lord, it's like this. That time on the northwestern border, I was being chased by His Highness the Crown Prince..."
He was almost buried alive in the end, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, which is why he committed such a treasonous act.
However, my lord, rest assured, His Highness the Crown Prince should not know that I was the one who did it. My lord need not worry about any trouble.
If His Highness the Crown Prince finds out and blames me, I will take full responsibility and will never implicate my lord!
Jun Wuji narrowed his long, phoenix-like eyes. "One person does the deed, one person takes the blame? Do you know that assaulting a member of the royal family is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family?"
"I know, but I've been alone since childhood, with no relatives or friends, so I'm not afraid."
She inherited the original owner's memories, knowing that the original owner was bought from human slaves by Jun Wuji, and that she didn't remember having any relatives.
As for her, if you want to exterminate her entire family, you'd better have the ability, right? Do you want to dig up her ancestral graves or something?
"Swoosh—" A sword, gleaming coldly in the moonlight, was pointed directly at Di Beiyao's face.
"Tell me, who are you?"
Di Beiyao didn't move because she didn't sense any killing intent from Jun Wuji. However, she really didn't like the feeling of having a sword pointed at her.
Judging from his current actions, he probably already suspected her, but just hadn't said anything. But...
"What is Your Majesty saying? I don't understand," the Empress said, sounding quite distressed.
How could she explain it? She couldn't very well say she was a soul from a thousand years ago; even if she dared to say it, someone would have to believe her.
"Don't try to deny it. You and the Left Guard are identical except for your appearance."
There is nothing else in common. I have read about the concept of body snatching in ancient books. You are probably the one who has snatched a body.
Di Beiyao: "!!!!"
Seeing the shocked expression on Di Beiyao's face, Jun Wuji knew that his guess was pretty accurate.
Although I found this matter extremely shocking, I suppressed my emotions.
Sheathed the sword pointing at Di Beiyao and continued to ask questions.
"Who are you? Why did you take over the Left Guard's body? Who sent you? What is your purpose?"
Di Beiyao sighed, thinking, "Things have already developed like this, there seems to be no point in her lying anymore. She might as well be honest."
After all, given her current identity, it was really difficult for her to harm Jun Wuji.
After thinking this through, Di Beiyao straightened up, looked directly at Jun Wuji with her beautiful eyes, and slowly spoke.
"First: I did not forcibly take over your guard's body; I only entered her body after she died."
Second: I was sent by the God of Love; you are his destined one.
My goal is to become your wife and grow old with you.
After saying that, he realized he was exaggerating a bit, and unconsciously pinched the tip of his nose, awkwardly saying, "Uh, well, do you believe me?"
