She realized the deep meaning of my words, looked at me again, and I also looked at her, her eyes flashing slightly.

Then, I heard her inaudible breathing, as if her heart was about to pop out of her chest at this moment. She looked at me nervously and shook her head lightly.

With just a moment, I immediately understood.

She didn't finish speaking.

Seeing my eyebrows slightly twitching, Ye Yunshuang seemed to be worried that I would not fully understand. She subconsciously wanted to speak, but when her lips moved, I had raised my hand and waved it gently, and she quickly understood, closed her mouth and lowered her head.

I mentioned the heart of my throat and slowly put it back a little at this moment.

She didn't finish speaking, she didn't finish speaking.

Although Ye Yunshuang, like me, has experienced those invisible fights and many nightmares-filled nightmares. Maybe our way to enter the palace is the same, but one thing is different - it is the purpose of entering the palace.

My purpose was to seduce the original emperor Pei Ji and let Xichuan have his own people in the palace. Then the Yan family had room to control many things; but Ye Yunshuang's purpose was not this. Although she had to get close to the emperor, she naturally had time to use beauty tricks, but her main purpose was to find out some decisions made by the court back then.

Although until now, I don’t know the end of this purpose and what amazing truth will lead to, it would be great that Ye Yunshuang didn’t tell this out.

My identity and purpose have been confessed to Pei Yuanhao before. Even if Pei Yuanhao is angry, he has accepted the fact that Xichuan sent people to the palace. No matter how serious Ye Yunshuang's crime is, it will not make Pei Yuanhao too angry. But if he knows this task, it means that Xichuan has other profound meanings. In this way, it will not only annoy Pei Yuanhao, but also likely that the peace talks between the two parties will be put on hold.

This is what worries me the most!

Thinking of this, I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You know very well what you should say, what you shouldn't say."

She nodded in a hurry.

"Since things have reached this point, let's take a step and see."

“…”

"Don't be impulsive anymore, impulsiveness will be bad."

“…”

After saying that, I was about to get up. Ye Yunshuang knelt on the ground and moved to me: "Miss!"

"Um?"

"What will the emperor treat me?"

“…”

"He, will he kill me?"

It seems that what Fang Zhijun said about Yao Yingxue also scared her. Pei Yuanhao could even force a woman to death with her child, so her careful work would be no problem. What's more, she loves this man wholeheartedly. If she wants to be executed by the person she loves, it is really the most painful way to die in the world.

I was silent for a moment, and then said, "Don't think about this now. The emperor goes to see Princess Ling now, which proves that he has feelings for his children and will not have feelings for you at all. As long as you no longer cause any other things, I will try my best to plead for you."

She nodded desperately with tears in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, I felt a little sad, and I didn't say anything else, and turned around and walked out.

As soon as I left the door, I saw Pei Yuanhao walking out of Pei Ling's house on the other side. I stood under the eaves and thought he was going to come over to ask Ye Yunshuang what he said, but he turned around and walked to the gate, stopped again, and stood there with his hands behind his back.

Eunuch Yu followed not far behind him, and hurriedly waved to me.

I hurriedly followed.

Pei Yuanhao did not look back. We both left Yunhua Palace one by one. He walked in front and I followed behind. Eunuch Yu and his people were still following each other.

However, as I walked, I found that the road was wrong. He did not go back to the bedroom, nor did he mean to go to Yuhua Palace again. Instead, he turned around and walked towards the lake. I felt a little uneasy, but I still followed.

It was already dark, and a crescent moon hung in the dark night sky, reflecting on the calm lake. The water was very quiet. Only when it was closest could you feel a little bit of slow flowing movement. The moon shadow trembled slightly with the water marks on the water surface, shining brightly.

If it is not because of those things, if it is not because of this person who gives people a strong sense of oppression, it should be a pleasing thing to stop and watch such moonlight.

But now, I was in no mood at all and followed him carefully.

After a while, we walked to the pavilion during the day.

Eunuch Yu was about to bring people up to serve, Pei Yuanhao waved his hand lightly, and they retreated silently. I stood in the pavilion, watching him walk into the pavilion alone, looking at the water-wild lake with his hands behind his back, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

The two of them were quiet for a long time before they heard his low voice saying, "She is also a person sent by Nishikawa?"

This is my expected opening remark.

I nodded calmly: "Yes."

"Have you seen her before?"

"No."

"She is your junior."

"When the young lady left Hongyan Tower, Xichuan didn't have the same person as her."

"Then when did you know that she was sent to the palace by Nishikawa?"

"I had doubted it a long time ago, but it was the time when the eldest princess said at the New Year banquet that 'Yan Qingying' was dead. That was what Ye Yunshuang asked her to say, with the purpose of helping me get rid of my sins."

“…”

Pei Yuanhao frowned slightly, looked at the lake's heart and flashed, and said, "That time?"

"yes."

"She did this to-"

"It's to protect me. Although I don't know her, she knows that I am the eldest lady of the Yan family."

Speaking of this, Pei Yuanhao's gaze eased a little, but immediately turned his head and sneered: "No wonder everyone says that Xichuan is the country of women, with many beauties, one by one, sending it to my harem one by one."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! I hurriedly said: "Your Majesty forgive me."

His voice became colder: "What do I have to forgive? You didn't come for me."

“…”

Hearing what he said, he seemed to be still thinking about the truth I told him that I entered the palace, and the target was his father Pei Ji. I listened to his tone and didn't dare to touch him. As for Ye Yunshuang, I didn't dare to say the truth at this moment.

After a while, he stopped, and then he calmed down, he said softly: "If Your Majesty is angry, it is easy to beat and scold people. It is natural for her to confess her guilt and punish her. The young woman just wants to say justice for Ye Yunshuang - to tell the truth."

"Truthful words? What truthful words?"

"Since she entered the palace, she had no action that would harm His Majesty except to protect me."

"That's because she doesn't have a chance. If she has a chance-"

"If she has a chance," I snatched his words and said quietly: "She will use her life to protect His Majesty!"

“…!”

Pei Yuanhao was slightly stunned and turned to look at me.

I also looked at her and said solemnly: "She is sincere to Your Majesty."

“…”

"Your Majesty may not know that during the time when Your Majesty was in a coma, she came to ask me several times and wanted to give up when she saw Your Majesty was safe and sound. Later, she even came with Lipin to force me to enter Yihua Palace."

Pei Yuanhao's eyes turned cold, and I continued, "Your Majesty may not know that the Yan family's family motto is very strict. She openly disobeyed me. I have never seen this in the past."

“…”

"She really does not care about anything for His Majesty."

“…”

"She has been by Your Majesty's side, and she is no longer the one who was originally written. She has His Majesty in her heart and loves His Majesty with all her heart."

Pei Yuanhao's face was cold, he almost gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "But she killed my child!"

“…!”

This time, I have nothing to say.

Even the words that I had just said seemed so powerless, even hypocritical, and even ridiculous when facing Pei Yuanhao's words. No matter how many reasons I have to help Ye Yunshuang and how many words can express her sincerity, the facts are in front of me-

No matter what, you shouldn't attack your children!

Once such an inhumane thing is done, there is no way to turn back.

So, when I heard his words, I stopped talking and just lowered my head in silence.

For a moment, this small lakeside pavilion once again fell into the silence of the night, leaving only the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the willow branches, and the quiet sound of the lake water flowing not far from her feet, accompanied by the moonlight shining in people's eyes.

Pei Yuanhao stood there with his hands behind his back, motionless.

I stood behind him motionless, but I thought too much in my heart. Although I knew Ye Yunshuang had done something wrong, I should indeed punish her. However, I still wanted to try my best to save her life, whether it was for the smooth progress of the peace talks between Xichuan and the court, or for her innocent and lovely daughter.

I was still thinking about what else I could do to convince Pei Yuanhao.

At this moment, Pei Yuanhao coughed twice. When I heard his voice, I quickly raised my head and saw him turn his head to look at me, but his eyes and expression were not as angry and cold as before. Instead, because of the blending of moonlight and water light, he exuded an unexpected tenderness.

I thought I had read it wrong.

But when he spoke, his voice was unexpectedly gentle.

He said: "Light."

"His Majesty."

"I have one thing that I want you to answer."

"My Majesty, please ask."

He slowly turned around and faced me. The solemn feeling made me feel a little more and more pressure, but I didn't retreat, but just looked up calmly at him.
