Ye Zhaobai clenched his fists, but felt uneasy. He had always thought the woman in front of him was a fool, but now he suddenly realized that she seemed to know everything he was doing.
She's been obedient and overly sensible all these years. Is it simply because she's always been insightful and perceptive, rather than because she's just stupid as I thought?
The Ji family has indeed always listened to him, and they have played a significant role in stabilizing the court. However, if An Shuke is to become empress, the Ji family must disappear.
Wan Ge's eyes immediately reddened. It was the first time Ye Zhaobai had seen her so vulnerable. He listened to her soft, helpless, and extremely aggrieved voice: "So many years have passed, and there has been no news of the person who rode the horse in the street. Actually, I am also very curious. Who exactly is he, and why could he ruin my life? If it weren't for him, would I be in this situation now?"
I also want to know, since the murderer was someone riding a horse recklessly in the street, why is everyone blaming me? Aren't I a victim too?
When Wan Ge uttered her last words, tears streamed down her face.
She admitted that the previous part was mostly acting, but the moment the tears fell, it was because this body contained the unspoken grievances of the original owner.
Ye Zhaobai's face was slightly pale, and a hint of unnatural emotion flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
"I will handle your brother's matter. You should behave yourself from now on. You should know that if you weren't still of some use, I wouldn't even give you a second glance, even if you knelt on the snow and died."
After Ye Zhaobai finished speaking, he stood up and paused before leaving: "I have seen your protest against me today."
Ye Zhaobai knew very well that Wan Ge's actions were only to protect General Ji, even if only for a short period of time.
She knew very well that she couldn't expose herself right now, so no matter what, as long as he did it in front of everyone, she wouldn't kill General Ji for the time being.
In addition, it was also a form of rebellion against him. He could treat her however he wanted before, but if he touched on her family, she would still explode.
Wan Ge understood the double meaning in the other person's words and didn't say anything more.
Only when the emperor reached the entrance of the secret passage did Wan Ge speak again, saying to him, "I have also felt countless joys at the thought of becoming your wife, not because I could become your Crown Princess, but simply because I could become your wife, Ye Zhaobai. But I never imagined that all of that was just wishful thinking. Ye Zhaobai, I hate you."
Ye Zhaobai paused for a moment, but finally opened the secret passage, his heart filled with countless emotions.
This was the first time Wan Ge had expressed her love for him so directly, but it was also during this time that she expressed her hatred for him.
In fact, Ye Zhaobai had always sensed that Ji Wange's willingness to do so much was not only out of guilt towards Consort An, but also out of affection for him.
…
"Ruan Ruan, keep an eye on the dog emperor for me. I need to leave for a while." After saying this to Ruan Ruan, Wange left the palace without leaving a trace. Now that the male lead has gone to the female lead's place, he probably won't return to her palace so soon.
Ruan Ruan replied obediently, "Yes, sir."
The original owner had learned martial arts before. Although her foundation wasn't very strong, with Wan Ge's help, she could easily evade the secret guards and patrolling guards.
