Ever since Ying Wuji came in the morning, she has not been feeling at peace. She has been reviewing the conversation between her and Ying Wuji in the morning, trying to figure out what went wrong.
Why did Ying Wuji say that he would help her escape from the deep palace?
And he said that King Li hid his daughter with the highest status and didn't give her to him?
This person... does he really know the truth?
But how could Zhao Ning tell him such a matter of life and death?
What was Zhao Ning's purpose in telling him this?
Or... did I misunderstand?
After all, although he said a lot of things, he did not directly say that Zhao Ning was a woman, nor did he say that he was Li Caimei.
But this reason can't explain what he said at all!
Li Caimei thought for a long time but didn't dare to come to a definite conclusion. Her head felt dizzy and she just wanted to have a good sleep and sort out her thoughts after waking up.
As a result, when Zhao Ning pushed the door open, she woke up instantly with a start.
what to do?
Should I tell His Highness that I already know?
no!
What if I misunderstood?
Or maybe... Ying Wuji didn't know it from Zhao Ning at all.
If I let the secret slip under such circumstances, I would inevitably put myself in an extremely unfavorable situation. Even if Zhao Ning was good to me, it would be difficult to save my life.
That’s all!
I’d better pretend I don’t know for now!
"Your Highness! Didn't you say something important happened today? Why are you back so early?"
Li Caimei smiled gently and looked quite relaxed, no different from before.
Zhao Ning looked at her curiously: "Cai Mei, why do you look a little pale?"
"Yes, is there?"
Li Caimei's heart tightened, then she smiled and said, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night!"
Zhao Ning didn't care too much: "So that's how it is. Guess what good stuff I brought you?"
"What?"
Li Caimei was really curious. In order to compensate her, Zhao Ning gave her a lot of things.
However, those of average quality were directly brought over by palace maids.
Only if she really thinks it is good will she hand it over to her personally.
It looks like there are some good things coming.
"Jade soap!"
Zhao Ning smiled, took out a box of jade soap from his arms, and taught Li Caimei how to use it.
Li Caimei looked at her fair and slender hands and liked this thing very much, so she asked another question: "Where did this jade soap come from? Why have I never heard of this thing before?"
"Guess?"
"I guess..."
Li Caimei thought for a moment and said, "The grand gathering of hundreds of families is coming, and envoys from all countries should have arrived. Among them, Qi attaches great importance to etiquette, so it should be the envoys from Qi who brought it!"
"wrong!"
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "You can't guess it. I'll tell you straight away, this was made by Brother Ying."
Brother Ying!
Ying Wuji?
Li Caimei's heart skipped a beat. She thought about it again and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
Because everything Zhao Ning personally gave her recently was closely related to Ying Wuji.
"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"!
"The Peacock Flies Southeast"!
And this jade soap!
She used to think that this might just be because of Zhao Ning’s admiration for Ying Wuji.
But now…
Could it be just a coincidence?
Li Caimei forced a smile and said, "It's a nice item. Thank you, Your Highness!"
Seeing her expression, Zhao Ning couldn't help but ask, "Don't you like it?"
Li Caimei quickly shook her head: "No! I still like it very much!"
He said he liked it, but he didn't look happy enough!
Zhao Ning complained in his heart, then smiled and said, "There is another gift, you will definitely like this one!"
"What?"
Li Caimei pursed her lips, looking very expectant, but she was muttering in her heart: Don’t be Ying Wuji anymore, don’t be Ying Wuji anymore!
Zhao Ning waved his right hand, and a thick stack of papers appeared on the table out of thin air: "I went to Brother Ying's study this morning and took out all his manuscripts while he was away. You can read them first, and I will return them to him after you finish reading them!"
Li Caimei: "..."
She felt more and more uneasy. During these years in the deep palace, she had actually lived a relatively stable life.
But now…she had a vague feeling that there seemed to be a big plan being implemented against her.
Ying Wuji went into his own yard, as he got lost while looking for Zhao Ning.
Or was it Zhao Ning who ordered him to come in?
What exactly do these two people want to do?
Seeing her face getting paler, Zhao Ning couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Are you sick? Why do you seem absent-minded?"
Li Caimei pursed her lips. Are you testing me?
She shook her head: "Nothing, something went wrong during my training last night, I just need to rest and it will be fine. Your Highness and Master Wuji are getting closer and closer, and they are even willing to steal books."
Since you are testing me, I will test you as well.
Zhao Ning thought she was joking, and retorted with a smile: "How can a scholar's work be called stealing? Even if Brother Ying was here, I could take it away in front of him. What difference is there between me and him?"
This was what she really meant. Ying Wuji's jade soap business directly eliminated the financial pressure on the royal family.
Isn’t this a pure one of ours?
Li Caimei asked, "What if Young Master Wuji asks Your Highness for something valuable?"
Zhao Ning laughed: "As long as he doesn't want my Dali kingdom, I will give him whatever he wants!"
Li Caimei: “!!!”
This, this, this...
Give whatever you want. Can a nominal wife also give it to you?
