The Adventures of the Crying Princess
Chapter 179 Talking to a fool is a waste of life
Lu Yikuan glanced at the screen. He secretly found it interesting. This attitude was completely different from the usually cynical Bai Xiaoqi. "Are you serious?"
"Nonsense, I'm not as good as you in doing errands. And you're not as good as me in terms of feelings." Having experienced betrayal, separation, and death in two lifetimes, as well as rebirth, falling in love again, and entanglement with each other, she prides herself on having some experience.
"Okay, go ahead." Lu Yikuan poured a cup of tea and sipped it slowly.
Bai Yimeng pursed her lips and buried her head in the medicine soup. She suddenly came out and took a few deep breaths. "If you really love Sister Bohe, don't be timid. Do you know why Sister Bohe has been avoiding you? No matter how you show your affection to her, she turns a blind eye?"
"I don't know. Why? Was it because I didn't do enough?" Lu Yikuan sat up straight, his eyes becoming serious.
Bai Yimeng looked at the roof, then his eyes fell on the window, and his voice softened, "She is afraid that once she gives her true heart, she won't be able to take it back. She is afraid that you are just talking, afraid that you can't be her adoptive father, afraid that you can't give her the sense of security she wants.
People who have nothing are more afraid of having something. The most terrifying thing is to lose something and then regain it, and then lose it again. That kind of despair will make people collapse. "
Bai Yimeng suddenly paused, and after a while a drop of liquid dripped from his eyes into the medicine soup. He muttered to himself in a voice as thin as a mosquito, "The long wait, the hopeless wait, is so tiring. If I have to experience that loneliness again, I would rather not have loved in the first place."
"What? Speak louder, I can't hear you." Lu Yikuan had strong internal strength and could hear the general idea, but he couldn't understand the meaning.
Bai Yimeng lowered his head and took a deep breath. His body began to tremble uncontrollably. "It's nothing. I just watched too many plays."
Lu Yikuan was relieved at this point, and couldn't help but complain, "You girls are so thoughtful. Watching a play can make you so sad."
"Just think of it as my nonsense. Second Senior Brother, whether you listen to me or not, I have nothing to say." Bai Yimeng took a deep breath and buried his head in the medicine soup. Tears would not be discovered here, nor would weakness.
After not hearing Bai Yimeng's voice for a while, Lu Yikuan patted the screen and said, "Xiao Qi, don't sleep. It's time to take your medicine."
There is still some time before she can take the medicine. Lu Yikuan said: I am worried about my junior sister, so I am testing her on purpose.
Bai Yimeng didn't answer. Her emotions surged up and she couldn't control them.
Not getting a response, Lu Yikuan got a little anxious. He wanted to go over but it was inconvenient, so he walked to the door and called Bohe.
How could Bo He believe that Lu Yikuan could take care of people? She didn't go far at all, but sat in the corridor to enjoy the flowers. Although her internal strength was not deep,
But he could clearly hear the conversation between the two people in the room. When he saw Lu Yikuan coming out, his first reaction was that something had happened to Bai Yimeng, so he quickly ran forward and asked, "What happened to Xiaoqi?"
"I don't know. There's no movement on the other side of the screen. It's not convenient for me to go over and check. You go and take a look."
Before Lu Yikuan could finish, Bo He had already rushed in. After looking around and not seeing Bai Yimeng, she was so anxious that she almost cried and complained to Lu Yikuan, "How do you judge people? Don't you know that she doesn't like to take medicinal baths? Don't you know that she will run away?"
"Run away? No way. The windows and doors are on my side. There's nothing on the other side."
No matter how Lu Yikuan explained, Bo He would not listen at all. "You are just like that. You always like to think you are right. You think you are smart and guard the windows and doors, but do you know how many tricks that girl can use to escape?"
Bai Yimeng couldn't hold it anymore and suddenly came out of the medicine soup. Seeing the two people arguing, he said, "Sorry for disturbing you. Just now, I suddenly wanted to practice holding my breath." Bai Yimeng had a lonely look and seemed very depressed.
The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Bohe was the first to react, "Little ancestor, have you forgotten that you are still injured? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold by coming out wet?" He turned his head and glared at the silly Lu Yikuan, "Turn around, don't you have any sense?"
This medicinal bath was a mess. After drinking the medicine, Bai Yimeng suddenly developed a low-grade fever. Bohe thought he had just caught a cold and didn't think much of it.
The truth is that sadness triggered the remaining poison in the Soul Crushing Pill. That poison overflowed in sadness and grew in anger.
Bai Yimeng slept until the afternoon, and was in a daze, with someone saying something in his ear.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has already found out that the person who pretended to be Prince Ying is a killer from Luosha Sect, and their goal is to assassinate the Crown Prince."
Minister Jiang's voice was very recognizable. Bai Yimeng's mind was a little unclear, and she couldn't tell where she was for a moment. Her neck felt heavy, and she tried to raise her head. She saw two blurry figures, one who looked like Yuwen Ji, and the other who was unfamiliar and could not be recognized.
Yuwen Ji was about to say something when he noticed Bai Yimeng on the couch. He waved his hand to signal Minister Jiang not to speak, "Sorry, the little girl has a fever and is a little clingy. Lord Jiang, please forgive me. I'll take a look at her and come over right away."
He came to Bai Yimeng's side, squatted down, and touched her head. "It's still hot, don't get up, lie down."
"Why am I in the Ministry of Justice?" Bai Yimeng was very familiar with this place. He rubbed his aching head and asked, "Did I fall into a daze after sleeping?"
"I brought you here so that I can take care of you, and also because you might be able to help with this case." Yuwen Ji picked the man up and poured a cup of warm water, blowing on it and passing it to Bai Yimeng, "Be careful, it's hot."
Bai Yimeng's mind cleared up a little after drinking some water. "What case?"
Yuwen Ji turned his head and looked at Minister Jiang behind him, "Not long after you left the capital, a major case occurred in the capital."
Yuwen Ji told the story of the crown prince's secret affair with a brothel.
"I just heard from you that Prince Ying was a Rakshasa Sect assassin in disguise. When did this happen?" Bai Yimeng thought of the time when he replaced the Rakshasa Sect assassin portrait.
"That's the day after you left."
"Impossible. When you were attacked that day, the assassin said it clearly. He said that the Luosha Sect wanted to buy your life. How did you become the prince again?" The exchange of portraits must not be mentioned. If the Juegu Eyes said it, it would mean death. Bai Yimeng yawned, pretending to be very sleepy, and dozed off on the couch.
Lord Jiang explained with a smile, "If we hadn't found out that the other party had accepted two deals, one for the lives of the Crown Prince and the other for the lives of Prince Yi."
"Kid, I know you're not asleep. I remember you stole the book from Luoshamen, didn't you? It was the one that recorded their instructions to kill the victim individually."
"Can I tell the truth? I really didn't see the prince's name. You are the only one in this dynasty with the surname Yuwen. As for the employer's information, I couldn't find it after searching for a long time." If you don't believe me, go find it yourself. It's at Jinying's place. I was too tired at that time, so I gave the package to Jinying to carry.
Yuwen Ji glanced at Yi Tong, who bowed and left, and then hurried back to get it. Not long after, he returned with the package in his hand.
Yuwen Ji opened the package and saw a cloth bag filled with leftover candied fruits, snacks, and some indistinguishable things. Under the cloth bag was a dark stone that felt heavy after shaking it, and underneath that was a crumpled booklet.
Yuwen Ji opened it and flipped through it, finding his own name but not the prince's. He handed the booklet to Lord Jiang.
"Your Highness, what's going on? You also heard it during the interrogation." Lord Jiang frowned and looked worried.
"There are two possibilities. The first is that someone did try to assassinate the prince, but lied about the name of Rakshasa Sect. The second is that person is lying." Bai Yimeng shut up again.
"How could that fake Prince Ying lie?"
Bai Yimeng chuckled twice but said nothing. Lu Yikuan once said that talking to a fool is a waste of life.
