At the same time, a cold word came from her ear.

"Princess, what do you want to do?"

Dongfang Yi withdrew his hand for a second, and turned around in shock.

When she saw Bai Liyue appearing behind her at some unknown time, she withdrew her hand from Bai Liyue in a panic.

She clenched the medicine tightly in her hands, and quickly put her hands behind her back, pretending to be calm: "No, nothing, Liyue, why are you here?"

Bai Liyue could tell that she was not good at lying, the flustered face and hesitant tone had already betrayed her.

When she was unprepared, Bai Liyue grabbed her wrist, spread her hand, snatched the medicine from her hand, and asked: "Princess, what is this?"

Dongfangyi was astonished and tried to take back the medicine, but was easily stopped by Bai Liyue.

Her pampered and delicate body is naturally no match for Bai Liyue.

Helpless, she explained in a flustered and far-fetched way: "Liyue, that's just a little medicine I bought at the pharmacy, return it to me!"

Bai Liyue took two steps back, opened the medicine bag and smelled it, then smiled faintly.

"This medicine is exactly the same as the poison the princess took. Don't tell me, princess, is this a coincidence?"

Dongfang Yi saw that he couldn't hide it from Bai Liyue, so he didn't try to snatch it anymore.

She lowered her eyelids, took a deep breath, turned her back, and admitted: "Yes, I was the one who poisoned the princess, go and expose me."

Bai Liyue didn't expect that it was really her.

She didn't expect that she would admit it so easily.

Looking at Dongfang Yi's back, Bai Liyue asked: "Can I ask why?"

Dongfang Yi closed her eyes, and said in a low voice, "Because she came to my house to make a fuss about the fake herbal medicine, which damaged my family's reputation. I hold a grudge, so I want her life."

Obviously, this reason cannot convince Bai Liyue.

Although Bai Liyue didn't know Dongfang Yi very well, she could also sense that she was not such a ignorant and narrow-minded person.

"Princess, do you have something to hide?"

Dongfangyi turned around, faced Bai Liyue, and replied very neatly: "No, what I said is true, you go tell the second prince, I poisoned the princess, I am willing to accept it. All punishment."

Bai Liyue looked at Dongfang Yi.

After she was exposed, there was no fear in her eyes, on the contrary, it made people feel a sense of relief.

"Princess, poisoning the princess is a very important matter, not only you will be punished, think about it, from now on, how will others evaluate the Dongfang family?"

When mentioning the Dongfang family, Dongfangyi finally showed a trace of sadness in his eyes.

Then, she turned her head away, and her eyes were red with aggrieved eyes.

"Whatever, I'm too tired, maybe, this is the catastrophe my family must go through."

Looking at her reddish eyes, Bai Liyue straightened her body so that she faced herself.

"Princess, poisoning the princess is a capital offense. If you tell the truth, maybe things will turn around."

Dongfangyi smiled helplessly: "What's so terrible about death? It's better to die than to live like a walking corpse, unable to control yourself."

Her helpless and sad smile made Bai Liyue realize that she had many difficulties.

Bai Liyue knew that she was not a bad person.

"Princess, since you are not afraid of death, why don't you tell me the truth, maybe I can help you."

"you?"

Dongfangyi laughed at himself, and shook his head helplessly: "No one can help me, this is what I deserve."

Seeing her look of despair, Bai Liyue guessed: "It's the eldest prince, he treats you badly, right? Did he instigate you to poison the princess?"

Dongfangyi glanced at Bai Liyue in surprise, but neither answered nor denied it.

Although Bai Liyue has never been in the royal family, she can imagine that ordinary aristocratic families value status, let alone the high and mighty royal family.

Even if Dongfangyi becomes a princess, her identity is only an adopted daughter, not even aristocratic orthodox.

In the eyes of outsiders, everyone only thinks that she is a lucky one, and her adopted daughter can fly to a branch and become a princess.

But her status is obviously very embarrassing among the noble blood of the royal family.

Even if the eldest prince liked her at the beginning, as time goes by, there are more and more voices of ridicule outside, so it is impossible for him not to care.

In addition, seeing the scars on Dongfang Yi's body last time, Bai Liyue could guess that Dongfang Yi was not doing well in the royal family.

At least, not as glamorous as the outside world sees.

Dongfangyi silently walked to the window of the ward, feeling the cool breeze outside the window.

At night in this season, the breeze is cool.

The cool wind passed across her face, it was very cold, but she didn't seem to feel it.

"Liyue, do you know? If I could choose, I would definitely not be this princess."

Bai Liyue didn't answer, staring at her lonely back, listening to her story carefully.

"At the beginning, when the royal family chose a concubine, the king was interested in my eldest sister, and an adopted daughter like me was not qualified at all.

But my mother loves my eldest sister very much, and has long known that the eldest prince has a violent personality and is an unknown perverted devil.

So, she begged me to let her make up the appearance of the eldest prince's dead wife, and when he came to Dongfang's house, she would wear his favorite color dress and dance in front of him.

Before the eldest prince, he had a wife whom he loved very much, but later died of illness, which has always been his heart disease.

As my mother expected, he chose me and married me without hesitation. "

Speaking of this, Dongfang Wan lowered her head and smiled wryly.

"I will always remember, on the wedding night, he called someone else's name.

Not long after marrying into the royal family, he also began to realize that I bear no resemblance to his late wife.

Slowly, he also began to reveal his true colors, unabashedly attacking me, using me as a tool for him to vent.

But what can I do?I can't escape even if I escape, for the sake of the Dongfang family, I must bear the position of the princess, respect him, and obey him. "

Dongfang Yi's statement was very simple, but Bai Liyue almost understood it.

Mrs. Dongfang's favorite is her own daughter.

For Dongfang Wan, she did not hesitate to push her adopted daughter into the fire pit.

Dongfang Yi became a victim of her doting on her daughter.

Bai Liyue looked at Dongfang Yi and asked: "When Mrs. Dongfang asked you to replace Dongfang Wan, why didn't you refuse? This is related to your life's happiness!"

Dongfangyi turned his head, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Father and mother raised me, and I can't repay the kindness of raising me.

Besides, my mother knelt down and begged me for my eldest sister. You said, how could I refuse? "

Bai Liyue lowered her eyes, not knowing what to say.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, let alone nobles.

With the aura that everyone yearns for, you have to bear the pressure and helplessness that ordinary people can't accept.

"Princess, I can understand your helplessness, but why did you harm the princess?"
