After Lu Ni finished speaking, she saw that Gu Xin didn't show any surprise at all, so she knew that she had guessed correctly. Gu Xin must know their plan, and Lu Zheng had people watching her all the time!
That wretched He Ye, after following her for so many years, she never even realized that this was someone Lu Zheng had placed by her side.
However, now is not the time for regret and anger.
Since Lu Ni knows Gu Xin and Lu Zheng's purpose, she must tell them everything she knows; otherwise, she will not be able to clear her name of the suspicion that she poisoned Princess Nanlin.
She glanced at the Dali Temple official who was taking notes not far from Gu Xin, knowing that everything she said today would be recorded.
But so what?
She was just going along with it.
It's still less serious than the charge that she murdered a princess from another country.
So she went all out and revealed all their plans.
“At first, it was Princess Nanlin’s maid who found me. I don’t speak Nanlin dialect, but Princess Nanlin’s maid can speak Dongzhe dialect. She…” Lu Ni was interrupted by Gu Xin at this point.
"Miss Lu, are you sure it was her who found you, and not you who found her? You learned to speak Dongzhe dialect from your maid Heye, maybe you just thought it was fun at first, but didn't you later have the intention of harming someone?" Gu Xin could also see that Lu Ni was going all out, so there was no need to guide her slowly, she just said it directly, she believed that Lu Ni would admit it.
If she doesn't ask, Lu Ni will definitely hide her intentions, and then Prince Tian will start muttering again, which means this will never end!
Their main task is to investigate cases.
It's not that she's using this opportunity to suppress Lu Ni; it's just that there aren't many clues. If Lu Ni says more, they might have more clues too.
"Yes, I admit it." Lu Ni had already gone all out. Since Gu Xin had asked, she didn't argue and admitted it directly. "At first, I did think it was fun. Later, at the banquet in the palace, I learned that Prince Tian Tian had taken a liking to you, and that's when I got these thoughts. I don't like you, but seeing you suffer makes me happy. So, I wanted to help Prince Tian Tian. Of course, I dislike Lu Zheng even more, and seeing Princess Long Zhu'er only strengthened my feelings. Later, I found out that most of the people in the delegations from Nan Lin Dong Zhe and Jia Cang were fluent in both languages. So, I purposefully learned Dong Zhe language from He Ye and studied even harder. I also purposefully approached Princess Nan Lin. We hit it off immediately. She wanted Lu Zheng, so I helped her; Prince Tian Tian wanted to marry you back to Dong Zhe, so I helped him too. I'll do anything I can, even risk my life."
Gu Xin raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What did I do to you that made you risk your life to harm me?"
Lu Ni glanced at Gu Xin, then turned to look at Lu Zheng and said, "You didn't do anything to me, but you saved people you shouldn't have. You're on my side, so you're my enemies. You're about to marry my enemy too. I don't like that, so I'll fight tooth and nail to make sure you all have a good time."
Gu Xin shook her head: "Fine, if that's how you think, there's nothing I can do. But even if you die because of this, it won't make us feel bad. Even if you're gone, Lu Zheng and I will still be together happily for a long time, so you really don't need to."
