Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Then he looked at Shangguan Jin again: "So, Your Highness is willing to talk?"

She had long noticed that Shangguan Jin had a special feeling for her brother, but due to various restrictions, Shangguan Jin could not express it, and even treated her coldly because she was Jiang Chen's fiancée.

In order to continue to stay with my brother, some things must be made clear.

When Shangguan Jin heard that Jiang Chen would also join the conversation, he nodded in agreement.

The three of them sat in Jiang Xue's room, and the atmosphere was serious.

"What do you think they are talking about in there?"

Mo Chenjun and Xiao Zhan were outside the door. Mo Chenjun nudged Xiao Zhan with his elbow and asked curiously.

"She is planning a counterattack." Xiao Zhan looked at the closed door and answered in a low voice.

Jiang Xue is definitely not someone who will sit there and wait for death. She was almost killed by Cao Zhilan this time, so she will definitely take action.

Based on her understanding of Jiang Xue, Cao Zhilan might suffer a great loss this time.

All I can say is that she picked the wrong opponent. She picked the most difficult person to fight, and it was expected that she would be defeated in the end.

Xiao Zhan was a little curious and wanted to know how Jiang Xue would fight back.

"What exactly do you want to tell me?"

Jiang Xue had been staring at him since he entered the room, her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. Shangguan Jin felt that there was nothing he could hide in front of her, which made him a little uneasy.

"Your Highness, do you have any problem with me because of my engagement with Master Huaichen?"

Jiang Xue's question shocked Shangguan Jin. He didn't expect her to ask this question directly.

Jiang Chen was also shocked. He had never understood why Shangguan Jin was so hostile towards Jiang Xue.

Did he hate Jiang Xue because of his fiancée? He couldn't understand it.

"I really overestimated you. I thought you would talk to me about my third sister, but I didn't expect it to be such an irrelevant topic. In that case, let's end the conversation here!"

In order to hide his inner panic, Shangguan Jin pretended to be angry, stood up and was about to leave.

"Only after we resolve the misunderstanding between us can we properly discuss the matter of Third Sister. If we continue to confront each other like we did at the Crown Princess' birthday banquet last time, not only will our cooperation fail, but the relationship between you and your brother will also deteriorate."

Facing his anger, Jiang Xue calmly poured a cup of tea for each of the three people present and motioned Shangguan Jin to sit down.

"elder brother?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Jin turned to look at Jiang Chen and saw the worry on his face.

How is this going?

Isn't this woman Jiang Chen's fiancée? Why is she suddenly calling him brother?

Full of doubts, he sat back unconsciously, staring at Jiang Xue waiting for an answer.

"Don't worry, brother. If we don't talk about some things, the knot in our hearts can't be untied, and we can't move forward. I believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a sensible person, otherwise he wouldn't have gained your brother's trust and would not personally assist him." Jiang Xue comforted Jiang Chen.

"As far as I know, Emperor Qian has only two direct descendants, namely the legitimate prince Jiang Chen and Princess Changle Jiang Xue. During the Civil War, Jiang Xue was sent to Beiling as a hostage and died a year after marrying Prince Gong Xiao Zhan. You call Jiang Chen brother, are you the deceased Jiang Xue?"

Shangguan Jin sneered. It was obvious that he didn't believe that the woman in front of him was Jiang Xue. He just thought that she was making up a lie because she was afraid that he would do something bad to her.

Facing Shangguan Jin's unfriendly attitude, Jiang Xue smiled, gently touched her fingers behind her ears, and with a little force, she removed the mask of disguise.

"you?"

Shangguan Jin was obviously shocked to see Jiang Xue's true appearance. His eyes widened as he stared at the face that looked very similar to Jiang Chen.

As twins, she and Jiang Chen look almost the same. Seeing this face, no one would doubt their blood relationship, no matter whether she explains it or not.

"Changle from Qian Kingdom pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Jiang Xue put down the mask and nodded and smiled at Shangguan Jin.

"Now, Your Highness should believe it, right?"

Shangguan Jin was stunned by this sudden change, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"Didn't you say you were dead?"

He pointed at Jiang Xue, his voice trembling with shock or the truth. At this moment, his hostility towards her had disappeared.

"For the sake of the royal family's reputation, Xiao Yan had to make that announcement." Jiang Xue said, "If it were you, Your Highness, you would make the same choice."

If she died or disappeared in Beiling for other reasons, the old generals of Qian Kingdom would not let it go easily. Therefore, death due to illness is the most appropriate statement.

Shangguan Jin had experienced court struggles and could deeply understand Jiang Xue's words.

"So does Xiao Zhan know your true identity?"

When he came in just now, he noticed Xiao Zhan standing beside him, but at that time his mind was full of Shangguan Xun and he didn't pay much attention to him.

"I think he doesn't know yet."

If he knew the truth, he might not be so polite to her. After all, they had many painful experiences between them.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling depressed.

"I chose to hide my real name because I couldn't expose myself. Although Xiao Yan announced to the public that I had passed away, he had been searching for me privately. Once he found me, he would ruthlessly eliminate me. Therefore, Your Highness, please keep Changle's secret."

She dared to confess her identity to Shangguan Jin because she believed he would not reveal it easily.

Because she clearly saw that as a bystander, he had deep feelings for Jiang Chen.

If her true identity was exposed and put her in danger, Jiang Chen would never be able to forgive him.

Although this took advantage of Shangguan Jin's feelings, in such a turbulent era, such means were a helpless choice for survival.

After all, she hadn't done anything to harm him.

Just as Jiang Xue expected, Shangguan Jin solemnly promised after learning the truth: "I, Shangguan Jin, swear in the name of the Crown Prince of Beixi that I will never reveal Changle's true identity."

With Shangguan Jin's assurance, Jiang Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, there is no need to worry that Shangguan Jin will take any adverse actions against Xiaoxue.

"Then, from today on, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not embarrass Changle anymore, right?" Jiang Xue asked with a smile.

"Haha, don't worry. Since you are Huaichen's sister, you are also my sister. How could I let you suffer any more injustice?"

Shangguan Jin changed his address from "this palace" to "I", which shows that he no longer has any hostility towards her.

"Next, let's talk about the third princess." After the misunderstanding was resolved and an agreement was reached, her next step was to deal with the person who threatened her safety.

"What are you going to do?" When it came to the point, Shangguan Jin's expression immediately became serious.

He raised Shangguan Xun. Although they were of similar age, Shangguan Jin was much more mature than his peers because he had suffered persecution in his early years and had been involved in court struggles for a long time.

To Shangguan Xun, he is not only a brother, but sometimes more like a father. So she is his weak spot, whoever touches her will have to pay the price.
