Reborn Female Assassin Falls in Love with Tsundere Little Prince

Shangguan Zimeng mustered up her courage and said, "Yan Kaiyu."

The person she named was stunned for a moment, and said a little aggrievedly: "My beloved concubine, why don't you call me your husband?"

Shangguan Zimeng smiled back at him: "I will ask you a few more questions. If you answer me truthfully, I will call you husband if I am satisfied."

Yan Kaiyu: Women’s mouths are full of lies. Didn’t you say that you would keep yelling until I get annoyed? It’s my fault for being too naive.

"Princess, that's not what you said before you left."

Shangguan Zimeng expected him to say this. Her mind was working rapidly, and she thought of a beauty trap. She followed his wishes, smiled gently, and said, "Husband, I have a question. If I am unhappy in the future, will you listen to me?"

Yan Kaiyu: What's wrong with her? Seeing her stern face just now, I think she must have guessed something. But now she is so cheerful, why doesn't she ask? Only if she asks, I can answer, otherwise how can I know what she wants to know?

Shangguan Zi dreamed that he didn't speak, so she sat up straight, hooked his chin with her fingers, and smiled seductively: "Hmm?"

Yan Kaiyu was mesmerized by her smile, especially the soft voice. His IQ dropped quickly and he answered without thinking, "Of course I will listen. Not only will I listen, I will also obey you."

Yan Kaiyu's little fish was officially hooked.

Shangguan Zi dreamed that her goal had been achieved, and said cheerfully, "Well, I'm very unhappy now. You just said that if I'm unhappy, you'll obey me in everything. I'm sure Your Majesty won't break your promise, right?"

"..."

I was careless and fell into the trap of this little girl.

"Be good and answer my questions carefully."

Yan Kaiyu cursed himself in his heart for being useless, with a smile on his face and a joyful voice: "Haha, the princess is getting smarter and smarter now. She has even learned how to trick me."

Shangguan Zimeng immediately put away her smile and put on a serious face: "Don't laugh with me! If you laugh again, I'll slap you in the face!"

Yan Kaiyu was stunned: She was smiling so beautifully just now, why did she suddenly get angry? Did she get upset after going out?

"Stand up!"

On the surface, she seems full of energy and showing off her power, but her inner monologue is: Mom, I have achieved success and I dare to be mean to him.

Yan Kaiyu stopped thinking and looked down at himself to see if he was standing properly: "Princess, I am standing well."

Shangguan Zimeng tried her best to put on a dignified look, ignored his words, and asked directly: "Did you arrange what happened tonight?"

Yan Kaiyu let out a long sigh: What is coming will come, what should be asked will be asked, just confess. This is my future princess, there is nothing I can't tell her.

He admitted generously: "Yes."

Shangguan Zimeng sighed and continued to confirm her thoughts to him: "That means you already knew that Concubine Zhao was the murderer of the Queen."

"Yes."

"You also know that Rong'er is not an ordinary palace maid, but a spy from Zehuang Country, so you ordered Yue'er to monitor her."

While admitting it, Yan Kaiyu also teased in her heart: She knows this too? It means she is not that stupid.

However, his expression remained calm as he replied, "Yes."

Shangguan Zimeng's heart sank again: Could it be that the person I like is really someone who doesn't care about the lives of those around him?

She was a little angry at this moment, and the tone of her voice was also like that.

"Since you knew that! Then why didn't you arrest them earlier? You kept them in the palace for half a year, doing evil things."

Yan Kaiyu held Shangguan Zimeng's hands tightly, looked into her eyes affectionately, and explained: "Because there are more than just spies planted in the palace by Zehuang Country, there are also those who were not used in previous years. She came here this time to use that group of people. Therefore, I want to use her as a line to find all the other people, uproot them, and eliminate the trouble forever."

Shangguan Zimeng smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that you have achieved it today."

"Yes."

"The price is that the Queen has been taking medicine that is harmful to her body for half a year, which has caused her to be unable to conceive until now, and it is unknown what will happen in the future. And you clearly knew it, but you still let it go!"

"Yes, I didn't care, because the queen had to take this medicine."

Shangguan Zimeng almost roared out: "Why? I don't understand! Why let the Queen eat it? Why can't we catch those who are exposed first?"

Yan Kaiyu patiently explained: "There are four spies from the Zehuang Kingdom in the Imperial Hospital, two of whom have very high positions in the hospital. If we don't use this medicine, they will be suspicious. Besides, they also have people around the queen. If we catch a few exposed people in advance, it will alert the enemy, which will be detrimental to the overall situation."

"So, in order to catch those spies, you let the Queen sacrifice her health, or even her life?! Yan Kaiyu! How can you be so cruel!"

After Shangguan Zimeng yelled the last sentence, she paused and felt a little regretful.

She still couldn't help but say it out loud, her heart suddenly ached, and she secretly glanced at Yan Kaiyu. As expected, he couldn't hide his sadness on his face, and his eyes when he looked at Shangguan Zimeng also showed sadness.

Shangguan Zimeng was a little panicked. She realized that what she had said just now was a bit too much.

She was angry because Yan Kaiyu had kept it a secret from Ye Xi, causing Ye Xi to suffer in vain. And Yue Er, who was only a teenager, was used as a pawn by him to do such a dangerous thing.

Even though it might be the case, she still liked him and bowed her head to apologize: "Yes, I'm sorry, I shouldn't yell at you like that."

Shangguan Zimeng didn't want to make the person she liked unhappy because of this matter, as that would make her feel guilty about love.

Yan Kaiyu thought the same thing and held Shangguan Zimeng in his arms: "I should be the one to say sorry. I should have told you earlier. It's my fault. I'm sorry."

Shangguan Zimeng tried not to let her tears fall, and said in a sobbing voice: "I can't understand why you do this? Because this is too unfair to the emperor and the queen."

Yan Kaiyu said in a calm tone: "Mengmeng, I've told you everything. In fact, the emperor really doesn't know what I did, but the queen knows everything."

Shangguan Zimeng asked with two puzzled eyes: "What do you mean?"

"Do you remember that I told you that Huaying once saved the Queen's life?"

"remember."

"The Queen's father was an official of the Wuyue Kingdom, just like your father. After the fall of the country, the family was forced to be slaves in the Zehuang Kingdom. Later, the Zehuang royal family wanted to kill all of them. It was at that time that Huaying saved the Queen's life, but everyone else died, including the Queen's parents, brother, and sister."

"So, the Queen has the best reason to do this, because what she hates the most is the Zehuang royal family and the people who work for them. The planning of this matter was brought to me by the Queen a few months ago. Due to the situation at the time, and in order to eliminate those spies and eliminate hidden dangers, I had no choice but to agree."

After Yan Kaiyu told all the stories behind the scenes in one breath, the hall fell silent again.

a long time.

Shangguan Zimeng came to her senses. She now knew the whole truth of the matter. She suddenly felt useless and could not help at all.

Instead, because of misunderstanding, he hurt Yan Kaiyu's heart.

He asked, "You should have told me then. Why did you hide it from me? It made me suspect you so badly."
