Empress, please respect yourself

Zhao Yubing originally didn't want to eavesdrop on anything, but one of them came first and the other came later, so they bumped into each other.

Zhao Yubing came first, but he didn't like to talk, and he didn't bring the maids to follow.

Ever since Xuanyuanlie was raped, her originally cold temper became even colder.Even gradually, she didn't even bring the maids with her when she went out. She said: "Anyway, life now counts as a day. It doesn't make any difference whether you live or die. There is no need to bring someone to protect you. What's more, the guards in the palace That's all, and there is no problem with safety. There is no fight in the harem, so there is no need to worry about anything."

There really isn't much fighting in this harem.

Even men don't have to fight anymore, what else is there to fight for?

Not to mention that there is no situation where you play with my child and I play with your child.

Of course, she only said these words to the most confidant people.

After all, it is taboo in the palace to always say "dead" and "alive".

However, as long as her confidants know about these things, it will be fine.

In fact, if she was as willful as Xie Changan, she wouldn't even have to tell her confidantes.But she is still willing to explain to the people in hand.

This time, she did not bring anyone with her as usual.

After watching the koi carp coming and going in the pool, she went to the side to see the scenery.

Looking at it, he naturally walked into the forest.

And at this time, the shadow appeared.

She also did not bring a maid.

Of course, she didn't have any maids to take with her.Although Xie Changan treated her very well and provided her with enough maids and eunuchs to serve her, she hated those and basically didn't use them at ordinary times.

Things like going out to hang out are even more impossible to bring people.

Because, she still has a lot to say to the fish in the pond.

This is a habit she developed after coming to the palace again.

I have accumulated too many words, no one can say it, so I can only say it to these fish.At least they won't leak out.

This time, she still took out all the grievances and worries accumulated recently, and vented completely.

After venting, she froze.

Because, she saw, not far away, a cold woman was standing there, staring at her.

"when did you come?"

Li Ying asked stiffly.

"Before you come."

Zhao Yu said coldly.

"..."

Li Ying struggled, but couldn't help asking more carefully.

"How much of what I said have you heard?"

"I should have heard them all."

"..."

Li Ying only felt a bolt from the blue.

all!listen!arrive!

She covered her face.

After a long while, I struggled to come back to life again: "You... can you pretend that you didn't hear it?"

"When you hear it, you hear it. How can you pretend you didn't hear anything?" Zhao Yubing said almost without thinking.

Li Ying was at a loss for words again.

She really wanted to open Zhao Yubing's head, and then erase all those eavesdropping memories.

Well, if her martial arts didn't disappear, maybe she would.

Taking a deep breath, Li Ying felt that she should lower her posture and beg Zhao Yubing: "This...you, can you not say it?"

Zhao Yubing blinked her thick eyelashes lightly: "Yes, as long as you answer one question for me."

Li Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

Since it is about terms, there is room for negotiation.

She has made up her mind: as long as the other party doesn't tell, she can do anything.

"Okay, what question do you want to ask?"

"I want to know, is Lan Jinyu a man or a woman?"

Zhao Yubing asked each word while staring into Li Ying's eyes.

Li Ying's whole body shook.

She had thought before that no matter what the other party asked, she would know everything.Even if she asked about her identity, she could tell it out - anyway, the current monarch of Daxing Kingdom is Lan Jinyu, who is actually Xie Changan.They knew their identities a long time ago, so they no longer have to be afraid of being exposed.

But she never expected that Zhao Yubing would ask this question.

She can not care about her own secrets, but she cannot care about other people's secrets.Because she asked herself that she was not qualified to betray other people's secrets.

What's more, Lan Jinyu saved her life.

Although because of Xie Changan, her emotions towards Lan Jinyu were complicated.

But her life was also saved by Lan Jinyu, this is an indisputable fact.

Although she is not a person who firmly believes in the laws of the world, she always treats the well-intentioned life-saving grace as if it never happened.

——Actually, to be honest, Lan Jinyu was the only one who saved her life out of kindness.

The people of Chaohuang Kingdom saved themselves, not necessarily out of good intentions, and not necessarily without their purpose.

So, she hesitated for a long time.

But Zhao Yubing is stubborn.

She stood there quietly, waiting for Li Ying's answer.

Obviously, if Li Ying didn't answer clearly, she would not give up.

Li Ying sighed: "Okay. If you really want to know, then I can tell you too."

She looked at Zhao Yubing: "Actually, you heard it just now, didn't you?"

Since he had been overheard thoroughly, Lan Jinyu's gender must have been overheard as well.

If he hadn't heard himself talking to himself just now and accidentally revealed the truth about Lan Jinyu's gender, the other party would never have thought of asking this question.

Sure enough, Zhao Yubing admitted frankly: "That's right. You just said her real gender. Even if you didn't tell me, I would know it. And I would spread the secret. If you did, I would do it for you and for her." You guys, keep it a secret."

really!

Li Ying faltered instantly.

That's right, I already said it a long time ago, and the other party heard it clearly, so what else can I deny?

After a long time, she sighed: "Why do you want to force me so hard? Do you want me to tell her secret myself?"

Being eavesdropped is not the same as voluntarily speaking out.

For her, Lan Jinyu's gender is no secret after getting along for such a long time.But to others, that was Lan Jinyu's biggest secret!

Li Ying knew the importance of this secret to Lan Jinyu.

Even after Lan Jinyu sat in court as a man, everyone's success or failure was linked behind this secret.

Among them, Xie Changan was also included.

"I just want to hear you explain clearly. Otherwise, I can reveal the secret I accidentally heard just now. At that time, someone will find out whether Lan Jinyu is a man or a woman." Zhao Yu was cold and cold threaten.

"..."

Indeed.

Anyway, Zhao Yubing already knew about this matter, no matter whether he revealed a little more, as long as the other party publicized it, the result would be the same.

What's more, in the secret she overheard, there are other things that cannot be explained to outsiders.

"Speak up. Don't struggle any more." Zhao Yubing looked at Liying as if he was persuasive, "Tell me everything you know about Lan Jinyu."

Li Ying sighed, and could only tell the whole story about Lan Jinyu's gender and everything related to it.

Zhao Yubing became quiet after hearing the whole thing.

For a long time, they didn't speak.

Li Ying couldn't help asking: "You care about her so much, don't you..."

It has long been heard that many people like Lan Jinyu, but now it seems that the person in front of him is probably one of them.

Zhao Yubing didn't answer, but murmured: "I see, I see."

Seeing her demeanor as if in a dream, Li Ying secretly rolled her eyes: Yes!Yes!It must be!

We are all people in love, and we all understand that expression.

Li Ying couldn't bear it, and said: "You don't have to do this, I don't think Lan Jinyu is good, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Naturally, there is no need to worry about it anymore, Lan Jinyu likes Xie Changan.

Regarding this point, Li Ying knew it, and Zhao Yubing had already seen it, not to mention she heard Li Ying complained just now, so she naturally knew it better.

Zhao Yubing took a deep breath, didn't say anything, but said to Liying lightly, "Thank you."

"no, I'm fine."

Since they were all like-minded people, Li Ying felt a sense of sympathy.

The one who loves does not love herself, and the two loved ones are already in love... In this way, they are really difficult sisters.

Li Ying smiled wryly: "Actually, you should have let go long ago. It doesn't matter if she is a woman or not."

Regardless of whether the other party is a man or a woman, as long as you have been chasing after him to no avail, you should let go.

Zhao Yubing finally showed a slight smile.

This smile is as shallow as a layer of floating sun on ice, it is not warm, but it also makes people's eyes shine.After all, it represents the arrival of the first ray of sunshine in the new year, which will soon break the ice and melt the snow, and the spring will be warm and the flowers will bloom.

"You, why shouldn't you let go?"

Zhao Yubing smiled slightly and looked at Li Ying.

Li Ying also laughed.

Smiling so that his eyes are moist, and there are little stars shining.

Maybe it's time to let go.

This is the thought that flashed in the minds of the two of them at the same time.

After looking at each other for a long time, Li Ying suddenly smiled slyly: "You asked me a question, can I ask you a question too?"

Zhao Yubing was noncommittal, but still smiled.

"Do you like eavesdropping?"

Zhao Yubing's smile paused for a while, and then, still.

Li Ying felt more confident: "So in fact, you don't want those court ladies and eunuchs to follow, not because you no longer care about life and death, but because you are full of curiosity and like to eavesdrop on other people's secrets!"

Zhao Yubing didn't answer, but asked with a slight smile, "Oh? Then according to what you said, I should have done this a long time ago. Why did I wait until now to eavesdrop?"

"That's because when Xuanyuanlie was in power, he simply couldn't tolerate you like this."

Li Ying never backed down.

Finally, Zhao Yubing acquiesced with a smile.

Li Ying was very speechless.

"Sure enough."

Who would have imagined that the most noble and glamorous ice beauty in the palace, Concubine Zhao De, is actually an... eighth woman who loves to inquire about other people's identities.

Zhao Yubing did not show weakness: "You know so clearly, you must be a fellow."

What she said was not a question, but a solid affirmation.

Speechless.

Yes, Zhao Yubing was right.These years, she worked as a shadow guard in the palace, and it's not that she didn't think about inquiring about other gossip.

But because he wanted to protect Xie Chang'an's safety, he didn't dare to leave easily, so he thought a lot and seldom actually practiced it.

However, I have to admit that they are indeed like-minded people.At least, it's all true love gossip.
