[Okay, let's wait and see.]
Ying Xixi supported her chin and waited for the system. The current system was much easier to talk to than before.
It was only after she found an opportunity to complain that the system "rectified its evil ways."
In the past, this dog system would just say it doesn’t know and can’t say.
Complaining is indeed a good idea!
The system that just happened to hear the host's thoughts: [.......]
The system went online with a grievance, [Host, this is a good system. ]
"Oh, that's great system. Have you seen anything? What fixed plot will happen at tomorrow night's New Year's Eve banquet?"
The system hummed in a baby voice, "I see. Tomorrow night, Emperor Gu Wang will be drugged. If the host wants to run away with the ball, then tomorrow night is a good opportunity."
Ying Xixi's eyes lit up when she heard this, "That's great! It really is a good opportunity!"
But if I run away with the ball, I have to leave the capital. If I continue to stay in Ying Mansion, Gu Wang will investigate and may find me in no time.
It’s not time to expose the secrets of the Ying Mansion yet.”
[Host, you don’t necessarily have to run with the ball.
As long as you are sure that Gu Wang likes you, even if he knows the secret of Ying Mansion, he might choose to protect you or amend the law.
Furthermore, the original owner's wish was to find a soulmate to spend the rest of her life with. If you, the host, run away with the baby and raise it on your own, you'll only be fulfilling your childbearing mission, not the original owner's wish.]
The system is a little confused.
"But now I'm not sure if Gu Wang likes me, so I can only run away with the ball, right?
And not only am I going to run with the ball, I'm also going to fake my own death and leave.
As for why…”
【Why?】
The system pricked up its ears and waited for the host's answer.
"I'll tell you when things happen as I expected."
Ying Xixi kept the secret.
System: [!!! Host!!!]
"I heard it, I heard it. No need to shout so loudly. I'm just imitating you. You used to keep me in suspense all the time."
system:【.......】
This was something it never expected.
After learning from the system what would happen tomorrow night, Ying Xixi began to pack her bags.
After she successfully captures Gu Wang tomorrow night, she can start her escape. Naturally, she won't have to go back to Ying Mansion to get the bag. The bag and other things must be packed in advance.
By the way, she had to tell her father and Ying Zhen about her plan to escape.
but......
Ying Xixi thought about it carefully and decided not to tell him for the time being.
If I tell them, they will definitely object.
Just write a letter and leave it.
Ying Xixi quickly wrote the letter and kept it.
The next morning, Ying Xixi disguised herself as a man, chartered a carriage, put her baggage in the carriage in advance, and told the driver to wait for her at the gate of the capital at night.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the New Year's Eve dinner to arrive in the evening.
In the afternoon, Ying Xixi changed her makeup simply, trying to look somewhat similar to Ying Zhen while concealing the fact that her face was almost identical to Ying Zhen's.
"Miss, it's time to prepare to enter the palace."
The maid came in and said something, and Ying Xixi put the letter she wrote last night on the table and left.
The family went to the palace in a carriage.
Ying Xixi was wearing a veil, and at first glance her features looked somewhat similar to Ying Zhen's.
"Sister, have you changed your appearance?"
Ying Zhen looked at him for a few seconds and asked.
Ying Xixi nodded, "Yes, we can't just enter the palace without changing our appearance. If the veil falls off accidentally, our secret will be discovered."
Ying Zhen sighed, "I'm sorry to have wronged you, sister. Don't worry, I will find a way to get the emperor to amend the law regarding twins.
Before, I found an opportunity to test the emperor, and the emperor was not optimistic about some of the existing laws.
The emperor also said that if he had the chance, he would both revise and redraft it.
I just wonder if the decree the Emperor disapproves of contains the one we hope for."
"Brother, it's okay. There's no rush for this. Our family has finally come this far. At least for now, we have to keep the secret. Let's take it one step at a time."
Ying Xixi comforted Ying Zhen with a few words.
"Xixi, although we should take things one step at a time, you can't stay unmarried for the rest of your life just to keep the Ying Mansion's secret."
Miao Manman is still very outspoken about Ying Xixi's affairs.
Ying Xixi smiled and said, "It's hard to say, sister-in-law, if I stay in the mansion without getting married, you can't chase me away."
Miao Manman glared at Ying Xixi and said, "Don't talk nonsense. You can't stay single for your whole life, and I can't chase you away. The Ying Mansion will always be your home, and no one will chase you away."
"Sister, don't worry, I will find a way to deal with this matter."
Ying Zhen made a guarantee.
Tonight’s New Year’s Eve dinner was very lively. Ying Xixi sat next to Miao Manman, looking up at what was happening around her.
The system only told her that Gu Wang would be drugged tonight, but did not go into too much detail.
[Host, it's not that this system doesn't want to be too specific, because I don't know either.]
The system's aggrieved little voice rang in Ying Xixi's mind.
Ying Xixi: “….”
"Okay, then can you help me observe? I need to know when Gu Wang was drugged so I can take advantage of him."
[Okay, this is fine. This system will go right away.]
After the system finished speaking, it became standby mode.
Ying Xixi saw that the palace banquet was almost full, and Gu Wang, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, finally appeared.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
"Long live our emperor!"
Everyone knelt down, saluted and shouted.
"My dear ministers, please stand."
Gu Wang shouted loudly, his voice deep and magnetic.
He sat on a high seat, with his concubines sitting on both sides of him.
Ying Xixi sat back in her seat, listened to Gu Wang's symbolic words, and then picked up her chopsticks and started eating the food in front of her.
I have to say, the food prepared by the imperial chef in the palace is indeed delicious.
Gu Wang, who was sitting in a high seat, looked at Ying Zhen who was standing next to Miao Manman, and then moved his gaze to Ying Xixi who was trying hard to eat.
Gu Wang's eyes moved left and right between the Ying brothers and sisters, and he clearly felt the difference in his feelings.
Could it be that he really has fallen for someone else so quickly and has fallen in love with Ying Aiqing's sister?!
Gu Wang began to doubt himself.
Then his feelings towards Aiqing...
For the first time in his life, Gu Wang felt a little disgusted with himself.
At the same time, he was also somewhat relieved that he had not rashly told Ying Aiqing about his feelings.
Otherwise, he would ruin Ying Aiqing's current happiness.
