The princess of Chongxi is actually a man! (12)
Nalanhe had heard the footsteps a long time ago, but at this moment he could hardly raise his head. He could only pretend to read a book with his head down and remain calm.
"My Lord, I want to ask you, do you know what happened in my yard this morning?"
Jiang Ye's slightly hoarse voice concealed a hint of grievance that he was unwilling to express.
He waited for a moment, and finally heard Nalanhe's reply -
"Know."
It was a clear and cold voice, without any emotion.
It’s as far away as if separated by nine layers of clouds.
Jiang Ye's heart was forced to tighten, as if his throat was strangled, making it difficult for him to speak.
He used up the last bit of his patience and reason, and asked in a hollow voice without complaint, blame, or anger,
"You agreed to her doing this, didn't you?"
Nalan He raised his head from the wheelchair. His long and narrow eyes, with a lavender halo, looked handsome in the sunlight... but ruthless.
"yes."
A simple syllable, but it was like a heavy hammer, smashing Jiang Ye's heart hard, smashing him into a bloody mess and causing him to have difficulty breathing due to the pain.
it turns out……
It turned out that Nalanhe really agreed to it.
Jiang Ye's face turned pale and pitiful in an instant. This was a blow no less tragic than Xiaoju's.
Some wet liquid slid gently across Jiangye's face.
Nalanhe saw it, and his five fingers on the armrest of the wheelchair, each of which was white and slender, as beautiful as a work of art, were all shrunken and clenched tightly.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to feel sorry for someone.
For a moment, Nalanhe felt so heartbroken that he wanted to explain the truth to Jiang Ye.
But, right behind Jiang Ye, stood another woman.
Nalan Yue was standing behind Jiang Ye, dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, with a superior attitude, but her beautiful eyes were full of malicious light.
Nalan Yue looked at Nalan He, and the threat in her eyes was obvious.
As long as Nalanhe wanted to explain, she would sue the emperor for Jiang Ye's poisoning her and have the emperor sentence Jiang Ye to death.
What Nalanhe cares most about is keeping Jiang Ye alive.
"My Lord, I finally understand..."
"Why did you tell me in the hot spring pool that day that I should never regret falling in love with you?"
Because falling in love with Nalanhe is really a disappointing thing.
Jiang Ye's voice was tinged with sadness, and listening carefully, the affection he once had for Nalan He was no longer there.
It was as if an invisible hand reached into Nalan He's chest and squeezed his heart heavily. Nalan He paused to breathe, and a trace of pain gathered in his eyes.
But under Nalan Yue's threat, Nalan He didn't even have the chance to reveal his true feelings.
Nalanhe retracted the emotion in his eyes and said calmly, "I have already told you not to provoke me."
"It's you who..."
Before Nalanhe had a chance to say the next words, Jiang Ye, who was standing in front of Nalanhe, turned around without a care in the world and left in a hurry.
And just after Jiang Ye left, Nalan Yue clapped her hands gently.
Approaching Naranhe.
"The look on Princess' face just now made me feel heartbroken," she said mockingly.
This made Nalanhe frown even deeper, with disgust and rejection.
Soon, Nalanhe started coughing violently.
Every sound was heart-wrenching.
Especially his flushed face, as if Nalanhe would die at any time.
Nalan Yue was anxious to comfort Nalan He, but before she could put her hand on his back, Nalan He pushed her away.
If Jiang Ye were here, I'm sure he would be able to stop Nalan He from coughing so badly.
Nalanhe coughed violently, and a faint, crystal-like light flashed in her beautiful eyes, making her look more like a sickly beauty.
But after Nalan He finished coughing, a cold dark color gradually condensed in his beautiful eyes.
What if... I have to be threatened by this woman all the time.
It’s better to fight to the death.
After Jiang Ye left Nalan He's bedroom, he stood in the corridor and suddenly realized that he had nowhere to go.
The palace is so big, but it is not actually his home.
And his real home, the Prime Minister's Mansion, also did not welcome him.
Although the sun was shining brightly, Jiang Ye felt as if he was in an ice cellar.
Jiang Ye returned to his courtyard and buried Xiaoju's body.
Then he sat in front of the window and was in a daze for a long time.
During this time, he kept staring in the same direction, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
By the evening, a piece of news spread throughout the palace—
The princess is missing!
The night in the capital city was also lively. The hawkers were still active, and the taverns and brothels along the streets were even more bustling.
On the street, a man was riding a horse, walking leisurely.
【Host, where are you going? 】
"Relax."
[You came here to relax without saying anything? What if the prince misunderstands you and thinks you were kidnapped or murdered...]
Xiaoju hadn't finished her words when she was interrupted by Jiang Ye's cold voice.
"Then let him misunderstand."
Anyway, Nalanhe, you have already treated him like this this morning.
Do you still expect him to continue to suffer in the mansion?
[Aren't you going to take revenge on that bitch Nalan Yue? ]
Jiang Ye shouted at the horse, pulled the reins tight, and stopped at the door of the brothel.
"Haven't you heard the saying that if God wants to destroy someone, he must first make him rampant."
He let Nalan Yue continue to act rampant for a while.
Even if he stayed in the palace, he would probably just watch those two people "show their affection" and he didn't want to ask for trouble.
Jiang Ye jumped off his horse, took out a silver coin from his pocket and threw it to a girl who was soliciting customers in the brothel.
"Can you play music?"
As soon as the girl saw the young man's appearance, her heart started beating fast. She nodded shyly, "Yes, I can sing any famous song."
The clever servant pulled Jiang Ye's horse and went to the backyard.
Jiang Ye smiled nonchalantly, raised his eyebrows, and whistled at the noisy scene in the brothel.
The girl liked this kind of handsome and manly young man. She immediately followed Jiang Ye and got a room with him.
The two entered the room, and Jiang Ye did not do anything to the woman. He just sat lazily on the chair with a smile on his lips.
"Let's play a tune."
The woman felt a little regretful in her heart, and she couldn't wait to do something else.
But she still had to listen to the guest. The woman sat beside the guqin and played the music gracefully.
There were several jars of wine in front of Jiang Ye, and the woman was playing the piano while he listened to the music and drank.
Outside the window was the moat, with boats floating on it and lanterns hanging all around. The sound of pianos mixed with women singing and the vulgar laughter of men downstairs could be heard.
In such a background, there is a sense of materialism and decadence. Jiang Ye becomes a dissolute playboy, squinting his eyes, drinking, and living a life of drunkenness and dream.
Gradually, the noise around Jiang Ye became quieter.
I was a little drunk and fell on the table without realizing it.
The piano music stopped, the woman stood up and walked towards the man lying on the table.
She prepared to serve the guest.
But as I approached, I heard the guest unconsciously mumbling a few names.
"Dog, dog emperor..."
"Shen Li..."
The sound was intermittent, obviously he was drunk.
But the thin lips were still reciting intermittently.
"Lejuefeng..."
The young man lying on the table twitched, and his long and dense eyelashes gradually became wet, and the crystal water light hanging on his eyelashes was swaying.
"...Where are you..."
I miss you so much.
I thought he was a playboy who did whatever he wanted.
But I didn't expect that he was a man with a passionate crush on me.
The brothel woman sighed, walked out of the room silently, and closed the door.
The man in the room finally quieted down and became silent.
That night, the sky above the palace seemed to be always shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds.
The emperor would not allow his precious daughter to stay out at night, so Nalan Yue naturally returned to the palace in the evening.
After finally waiting for Nalan Yue to leave, Nalan He thought he had a chance to confess to Jiang Ye and reveal his coping strategies to Jiang Ye.
He wanted to tell Jiang Ye not to be afraid.
But I didn't expect Jiang Ye to leave first.
Nalanhe placed his hands on his thighs, lowered his head, and pursed his thin lips tightly, exuding a gloomy temperament.
Suddenly, a figure in black knelt in front of Nalanhe.
He replied fearfully, "Your Highness, we have not yet found the whereabouts of the princess..."
There was a "pop" sound.
Nalanhe threw the teacup on the table heavily, and a few blue veins were faintly exposed on his forehead, making him look gloomy and terrifying.
"Then keep looking!"
He roared loudly, his voice slightly hoarse from the excessive force.
The man in black bent even lower, with cold sweat on his forehead.
All of the Hei Kuitie riders are outstanding, so how could they not even make a 'woman' laugh? They themselves feel ashamed!
Little did they know that the reason why it was so difficult to find him was because Jiang Ye had changed his gender and returned to being a man after leaving the palace.
"and……"
Nalanhe's voice was cold and his eyes were narrowed. Although they were a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, they were now dangerously cold and shocking.
Perhaps from the beginning, everyone underestimated the man in the wheelchair.
After a pause, Nalanhe ordered without question, "Pass the order down, all the Black Kuitie Cavalry units are ready for battle and are ready to obey my orders at any time!"
Hei Kuitieqi is the private soldier raised by Nalan He.
There are only tens of thousands of people, but each of them is brave and good at fighting, and they are all carefully selected talents.
Most importantly, they are all loyal.
This is an existence that even Yang Hao doesn't know about. It is the most powerful force in Nalan He's hands and also the biggest weight in Nalan He's hands.
Nalanhe never thought of using this power unless it was absolutely necessary.
But now, for a 'woman'...
After hearing this, the man in black raised his head in fear, ignoring the difference in status between the two, and said with wide eyes,
"Please think twice, my Lord!"
What is combat readiness?
Your Majesty is plotting treason and wanting to rebel!
"The Emperor has not posed a threat to you at this time. I beg you not to take this unnecessary risk!"
Nalanhe uttered a light but bone-chilling sneer.
"He poses no threat to the king."
"But he poses a threat to my woman!"
The emperor wants to protect his daughter.
And he, Naranhe...
Why don't you protect your woman!
Nalan Yue is favored by the emperor and can do whatever he wants, without any law or order, and even bully his woman.
Then he...
He just wanted to seize the emperor's position.
When he holds the imperial power and wears the yellow robe, he will let his woman do whatever she wants and be lawless!
