Chapter 70 He is indeed not a human
The words that floated by made Lin Zhaoyue recall the time when Xiao Tingye was a companion to the princes and princesses in the palace.
My father doesn't have many children, which is due to the struggles in the harem and the high mortality rate of princes. I will not allow anyone to threaten Lin Ye's position.
Therefore, some means were used, but very few concubines could become pregnant.
Naturally, my father would not allow the daughters of powerful relatives to give birth to children.
So when Xiao Tingye was a companion reader in the palace, there were only a few princes and princesses.
Although he was called a study companion, in fact, Xiao Tingye’s treatment was no different from that of the prince.
But this person has been looking cold and gloomy since he entered the palace. There is no warmth in his eyes when he looks at anyone, just like a poisonous snake.
Naturally, no one wanted to get close to him.
"This child has a miserable life." The emperor sighed softly, "I promised his parents that I would take good care of him, but he ended up living among the common people. Over the past few years... he has suffered a lot..."
This was what his father had said to her before he came back.
She didn't know what Xiao Tingye had experienced, but she didn't like him the first time she saw him.
Nothing but skin.
Once, when she passed by the Imperial Garden, she saw several people whispering, two of whom were children from royal families.
"I heard that Xiao Tingye has lost both his parents and is an orphan..."
"Tsk... I don't even dare to look at him, he's too scary... I can tell at first glance that he's a dirty, sinister villain..."
"Exactly. Who wants to play with him? I heard he was once captured by someone like that outside the palace and used as a pedophile..."
"How disgusting... The Emperor allowed such a person to stay in the palace..."
"More than that. Don't look at his young age now, he has killed people. I heard from the person who brought him back that someone saw him stabbing a knife into someone's neck..."
"How cruel! This kind of person will be a disaster sooner or later... Sooner or later, he will kill people..."
As their words became more and more unpleasant, a clear and majestic girl's voice suddenly sounded.
"Who gave you permission to talk about my study companion in the palace?"
As soon as they saw that it was Princess Zhaohua, their faces immediately turned into horror.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"Princess...we...don't have any other intentions. We're just worried that people like Xiao Tingye...will harm you in the future..."
"Yes, yes, Princess, this person has a problem with his character, so..."
Although Lin Zhaoyue was young at that time, she already possessed the dignity and demeanor of a princess.
Especially as the emperor's eldest daughter, the emperor himself had an extraordinary fondness for her.
Therefore, no matter inside or outside the palace, everyone treated her more respectfully than they treated the prince.
Lin Zhaoyue said coldly in her childish voice, "You've never had any contact with him, so what qualifications do you have to comment on his character? And what does his behavior have to do with you?! If I hear you say such dirty words again, I will slap you in the face a hundred times! Do you understand?"
Several people's faces turned pale, and they whispered: "I know..."
Since then, she never heard anyone talk about Xiao Tingye's private affairs or his past.
One winter day, those people all fell into the water and caught a cold.
Two of them also fell seriously ill due to the cold and suffered from sequelae.
She remembered that at that time she just couldn't stand people using other people's past to judge a person's present.
But it turns out.
They were not wrong.
Xiao Tingye is indeed such a person.
Do nothing.
But even though Xiao Tingye is dirty, mean and shameless.
So what.
Who can be clean?
Compared to the so-called gentle and kind heroine, I am also labeled as vicious and scheming.
She didn't expect him to be upright and just, nor would she restrain herself from being kind and merciful.
Whatever you do, just make sure you have a clear conscience.
After getting off the sedan chair, Mu Ying supported Lin Zhaoyue and returned to the princess's mansion.
"Princess, do you think she will ask Master Lu and the Crown Prince to save her?" Mu Ying asked curiously, "She even tried to commit suicide at the Princess's door before because of Master Lu."
Lin Zhaoyue curled her lips. "Death also depends on whether it is worth dying. Moreover, unless it is absolutely necessary, most people seek death because they know they will not die. Last time at the gate of the princess's mansion, she knew very well that I would not kill her, and Lu Chenzhou would not let her die. Even if she died, she could still gain the spiritual satisfaction of self-sacrifice for love."
But dying in prison would be meaningless. Without the man of her heart watching over her, she wouldn't receive any attention. She wouldn't just die like that, because the punishment she endured would only make her more eager to escape. It would also make those two men feel even more sorry for her, and want to save her even more.
Mu Ying understood, "So His Highness ordering the jailer to give her a hard time was actually a strategic move."
Lin Zhaoyue walked slowly on the bluestone slabs. The servants around her quietly stepped aside and saluted, and only continued to do their duties after the princess left.
[Oh my god, so everything is part of the princess's plan, right?]
[If you don't have a bit of intelligence, you really can't keep up with the princess. I said I thought the princess's vicious female supporting role words were very wrong! ]
Doesn't anyone think the princess has thoroughly analyzed the heroine's mind? Sure enough, the love brain is no match for the career brain.
[The princess wants the heroine to ask for help, and wants the hero and the second male lead to save her? Why?]
[Of course! The princess must have used Chu Yinyin to make a big move!]
Lin Zhaoyue smiled slightly and said, "Next, we just need to wait patiently."
A woman like Chu Yinyin, if used well, can be a chess move that will cause the protagonists to destroy themselves.
She just needs to add fuel to the fire.
Now, what she wants to know is.
What Xiao Tingye said to her today.
What does he know about Lu Chenzhou and Marquis Xuanping?
She began to investigate Xuanping Hou and Lu Chenzhou, actually after she returned to Beijing.
During the year she was away, subtitles appeared less frequently, and she didn't know some of the subsequent plots.
After returning to Beijing, when subtitles appeared more frequently and she learned some subsequent plots, she realized that her father had died at the hands of Lu Chenzhou.
Only then did he begin to investigate Lu Chenzhou and Xuanping Hou.
Now that she and Lu Chenzhou have divorced, and the news has spread to her fiefdom, Marquis Xuanping will surely take action soon.
Previously, my father sent a memorial to the Marquis Xuanping’s residence, telling him about Lu Chenzhou and Chu Yinyin.
But Marquis Xuanping did not react at all. He just said it was a man's nature and even complained sarcastically about how he had left Lu Chenzhou alone in the empty room.
This made the emperor so angry that he jumped up and down.
It is said that in Qianyuan Palace, all the ancestors of Xuanping Hou Lu Shi were dug up and cursed.
"Your Highness, something bad has happened. Young Masters Wen Qin and Fu Sheng are fighting with Ming Xi!" The maid ran over and said anxiously.
Lin Zhaoyue was surprised: "What?"
At the same time, a series of "?" quickly appeared on the subtitles.
