The princess of Chongxi is actually a man! (11)
He stood quietly, not ready to rush in and destroy the tragic atmosphere inside.
Otherwise it would be awkward.
At this time, Jiang Ye heard Yang Hao inside, and asked in a sad voice, "Why... Even if the prince doesn't recognize me, at least give me a reason, why?"
Yang Hao was unwilling to accept this, and an unwilling person only wanted to seek an explanation.
Why has he followed the prince for so many years, but the prince doesn't like him?
Not long after Jiang Ye entered the palace, she became the apple of the prince's eye.
The prince would even drive away the loyal man who had been with her for so many years for her.
Nalan He's slender and beautiful five fingers tapped on the armrest of the wheelchair slowly and steadily as he looked at Yang Hao's tear-stained face.
Then, Nalan He said casually and indifferently, "I don't have the habit of cutting sleeves, I don't like men."
Sometimes, it's harder to find a reason to dislike someone than to like someone.
And Nalanhe simply found the simplest and most convincing explanation.
Don't like men.
Sure enough, after hearing this explanation, Yang Hao felt as if all his strength was drained away and he could no longer find any words to say.
His face was pale, and he seemed to be neither crying nor smiling.
What the prince was talking about was a huge chasm that he would never be able to cross.
Jiang Ye, who was standing outside the door, was not much better off than Yang Hao.
He also felt cold all over and his blood was flowing backwards.
The round, dark pupils were devoid of color.
Nalanhe... doesn't like men?
Like a blow to the head, Jiang Ye suddenly realized how stupid his decision was to wait until Nalan He felt better about him before confessing his gender.
I'm afraid that Nalanhe will not only be unable to accept it, but will even hate him.
He pretended to be a woman but never told Nalan He. Wouldn't it be a deception in Nalan He's eyes?
What a good ending it can be.
Jiang Ye pursed his lips tightly, not wanting to stay any longer, he turned around quickly and left in a hurry.
Jiang Ye slept very uneasily that night.
He lay in bed, with a lot on his mind. What made him even more anxious was that Nalan He did not come to his room to sleep tonight.
Jiang Ye didn't know that the reason why Nalanhe didn't come to his courtyard to sleep tonight was because -
Princess Mingyue visits at night.
As soon as Nalan Yue walked into Nalan He's room, she couldn't help but run towards Nalan He with brisk steps, like a carefree, unconcerned, spoiled princess.
"Why are you here?" Nalan He frowned.
He knew Nalan Yue's feelings for him.
When the emperor was considering a marriage for him, among all the women in the capital, not one was willing to marry him as a princess, simply because he had crippled legs, a strong yin energy, and was rumored to be able to bring death.
Only Nalan Yue was not afraid and took the initiative to tell the emperor that she wanted to marry him as a princess.
Of course the emperor was reluctant to let his precious daughter marry a cripple, so he vetoed the idea from the beginning.
But even if the emperor vetoed it, Nalan Yue would still go to his house from time to time.
So much so that he hated this woman so much.
"I came here just because I wanted to... The most important reason is, of course, that I missed you, Brother He."
There was a gleam in Nalan Yue's eyes. She looked at Nalan He's face, which was enough to turn everyone upside down, and her heart was filled with joy.
It would be easy for her to make Jiang Ye give up.
And Brother He should naturally belong to her.
"Your leg has healed so quickly?" Nalanhe asked with a hint of mockery.
However, Nalan Yue seemed not to understand Nalan He's tone and kept leaning towards him.
"It's fine... But even if it's fine, if Father knew that it was Brother He's princess who poisoned me..."
"That woman Jiang Ye will not be able to escape the death penalty either."
Nalanhe frowned even more tightly at the woman's coquettish words and the rich floral scent coming from her body.
And more importantly, what Nalan Yue said...
Clearly he knew the truth.
Nalanhe's expression remained unchanged. He smiled calmly and said without any emotion,
"Princess, you are joking. Jiang Ye is just a girl who has been raised in a secluded place since she was a child. How could she possibly know how to poison someone?"
"Don't let yourself get into any trouble and put the blame on my princess. The emperor is wise and will always look for evidence."
The words were spoken so casually, as if Nalan Yue was really talking nonsense.
Nalan Yue curled her lips, "Brother He, do you think I don't have evidence? I have witnesses who can prove that Jiang Ye knows medicine..."
"There is more than one witness. I sent people to inquire in the palace. There is a pharmacy in the palace. I heard that it was opened by you, Brother He, specifically for that woman."
This time, Nalan Yue, who is usually not very smart, turned out to be quite smart, and every word she said touched Nalan He's heart.
Nalan He narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, and a faint dangerous light emanated from his eyes.
However, Nalan Yue didn't see it at all, and was even immersed in the beautiful hopes she had created.
"Brother He... since you like that woman so much, I'm sure you will help me in order to protect her, right?"
Nalan Yue raised her hand, and her five white and tender fingertips, which were not stained by water, slowly stroked Nalan He's cheek.
Nalanhe resisted the urge to pry it open.
He looked at Nalan Yue with a sneer.
However, Nalan Yue ignored the emotions in Nalan He's eyes.
As long as Brother He allowed her to stay by his side, as long as she could finally touch Brother He's skin, it would be fine.
"You know I'm not interested in you."
"I don't care... I just want to be able to look at your face every day, at least to enjoy it."
Nalanhe's fingers were pressed tightly on the armrests of the wheelchair, and his knuckles turned bluish-white from excessive force.
When she thought about this woman's temper, if she didn't obey her, Nalan Yue could really sue the emperor and ask the emperor to take Jiang Ye's life.
He suppressed his strong rejection of this woman.
Love makes people have soft spots.
…
The next day, Jiang Ye was awakened by the noise outside the door.
Outside the yard was a cat's shrill cry, so sharp that it seemed to tear the sky apart.
Jiang Ye lying on the bed almost thought he was having a nightmare. After waking up, his dark pupils suddenly widened and he jumped up from the bed.
It's Xiaoju's voice outside!
Jiang Ye was only wearing an inner garment, without even an outer garment, and he hurried into the yard.
There were quite a few people standing in the yard, including Jiang Ye's maid, Nalan Yue, who hadn't been seen for a long time, and several maids following behind Nalan Yue.
Right in front of the group of people, there was a makeshift steamer with firewood burning underneath.
The flames shot up fiercely into the sky, and swirling mist rose from above.
Jiang Ye's maids were too timid to go forward. One of them even had tears in her eyes, as if something extremely terrible had happened.
A cruel thought suddenly popped up in Jiang Ye's mind.
"What are you doing!!"
Jiang Ye rushed up like a madman, his body trembling uncontrollably, as if he had lost his mind.
But before he could get close to the steamer, the two maids behind Nalan Yue came up and grabbed him tightly.
Nalan Yue sneered, "Well, it's nothing, it's just that this cat is too noisy and too dirty..."
She looked at Jiang Ye's pale face and felt extremely happy.
It was worth it that she was poisoned and tortured so terribly by this woman some time ago.
It feels so good to have my revenge now.
Jiang Ye gritted his teeth and glared at Nalan Yue, forgetting all respect for etiquette and yelling, "You're a fucking lunatic!"
He was a man after all, and with a little effort, he easily broke free from the two maids who were holding him.
He ran to the steamer and, not caring about burning his hands, lifted the top one down.
Jiang Ye opened the lid of the steamer, and his heart almost stopped when he saw the scene inside.
It felt like something was tearing me apart and the pain was unbearable.
There is a kitten in the steamer. Its eyes are tightly closed. Its soft and fine fur is wet by the steam, making its body look even smaller, pitifully small. Its exposed skin is red, which is shocking to the eyes.
"Ouch, the princess's hands seem to be burned red?"
Nalan Yue was talking to her heart's content.
Jiang Ye's hands were burned red because he carelessly lifted the top layer of the steamer just now.
But Jiang Ye didn't seem to realize this. Not only did he not rush to cool down, but he ignored the high-temperature steam and put his hands directly into the steamer containing the cat.
He took the kitten out and held it in his arms.
Her body was trembling slightly, and the tip of her little nose was red.
My mind went blank.
After waiting for a long time, Jiang Ye finally regained consciousness. He stood up, his eyes were like a ghost in hell, empty, but deep in his eyes were full of hatred.
"Nalan Yue, do you really think you can do whatever you want here with me?"
The maid behind Nalan Yue was fanning her.
She chuckled condescendingly, "Do whatever you want? This is in the palace, the palace is the prince's territory, as long as the prince allows, this princess can do whatever she wants."
Nalan Yue's words made Jiang Ye's hateful look dissipate for a moment.
A string in the brain suddenly broke.
His pale lips parted slightly, but he could not utter a word.
So, killing a cat in such a cruel and brutal way was also allowed by Nalanhe?
"You don't seem to believe it... If you don't believe it, go ask Brother He."
"Oh...by the way, you can also ask, who did the prince spend the night with last night when he didn't come to favor you?"
Nalan Yue smiled shyly, but her eyes were full of boasting.
At this moment, what Jiang Ye wanted to do most was not to take revenge on Nalan Yue, but to ask Nalan He whether it was really as this woman said.
Is it true that he has never known Naranhe?
Nalanhe is such a cold, heartless and cruel person.
Jiang Ye stared at Nalan Yue with a dead look in his eyes, his tone full of contempt and disgust, "Do you think I don't dare to ask? Do you think I will believe you?"
"Oh, then go ahead and ask... you fool are asking for trouble."
Jiang Ye turned around and strode towards Nalan He's bedroom.
Because that person is his love of several lives.
So, he doesn't listen to what others say, he only listens to what the person says himself.
Soon, Jiang Ye arrived at the door of Nalanhe's bedroom.
He walked in without knocking.
