The prince of love, the wealth has come to me

Chapter 54 I don’t pretend anymore, I show my cards

"What about other things? Like playing the piano? Dancing? Playing chess?"

"Hmm...Does Gobang and checkers count?"

"What is Gobang? What is checkers?"

"I'll show it to His Majesty when I get a chance. This is a unique way of playing here."

"it is good."

"Your Highness, what do you like?" Ling Yueqing took the opportunity to ask Xiao Mingchen the question.

"This king likes to handle official business."

Ling Yueqing: "..."

Wow, I didn’t expect that this prince is such a workaholic. I wonder if he has any idea of ​​usurping the throne.

Ling Yueqing quickly stopped the dangerous thoughts in her mind.

She suddenly thought of the storybooks in the palace's private library. Who would have thought that someone who said so seriously that he liked to handle official business actually loved reading storybooks in private? She couldn't help laughing when she thought of this.

Xiao Mingchen looked at her with curved eyebrows and eyes, "Princess, what fun things have you thought of? Can you tell me about it?"

Ling Yueqing was about to speak when she suddenly heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air from behind her.

She subconsciously pushed Xiao Mingchen away, then swung her fist to meet his attack.

The opponent was very powerful, but Ling Yueqing was also very agile, and it was difficult to tell who was the winner for a while.

Xiao Mingchen was also a little surprised when he saw this. Even without any internal energy, she could fight Yun Dian to a draw. Her movements were strange and unusual.

Ling Yueqing handled the situation well at first, but the other party showed no martial ethics and suddenly several men in black jumped out and attacked her.

No matter how powerful she was, two fists could not beat four hands, and she was eventually at a disadvantage.

Ling Yueqing continued to move her hands, but she was wailing in her heart, "It's not fair, so many people are fighting against me alone, and they all have internal strength, which I don't have! After this fight, I will learn it right away."

Then Ling Yueqing drew out the Yunyue Whip from her waist and used the whip skills with such force that no one could get close to her.

But physical strength will always run out. Ling Yueqing tried hard to observe the flaws of everyone, hoping to defeat the enemy with one move.

Suddenly she realized that the other party was holding back and seemed not to want to hurt her.

She originally thought that the assassin had found the palace and wanted to kill her, but now it seemed more like a test.

Suddenly a bold guess came to her mind.

Could these people be from the palace? Otherwise, they would not have seen Xiao Mingchen standing there.

So she took advantage of the opportunity, reached out from her lapel, took out the silver needle she carried with her, and threw it towards Xiao Mingchen. Her technique was very accurate, so even if he really hit her, it would not be a big deal.

As she expected, the two men in black closest to Xiao Mingchen rushed forward to block the needle for Xiao Mingchen.

What's there to not understand now? Are we playing a trick on her?

Ling Yueqing immediately stopped and shouted, "Stop it."

Everyone was frightened by her for a moment and actually stopped.

When he reacted and was about to continue, he heard Ling Yueqing ask Xiao Mingchen, "Prince, do you still want to play?"

Xiao Mingchen saw that she had figured it out, so he said, "Everyone, leave."

"Yes." Everyone withdrew their hands and stood in a row behind Xiao Mingchen.

Ling Yueqing straightened her dress and put away her weapon. "Tell me, Your Majesty, what is the purpose of doing this today?"

Xiao Mingchen did not answer her, but started talking about his own investigation results.

"The eldest daughter of General Yuwen's mansion, 18 years old, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, gentle and dignified, likes needlework and dislikes swords and guns. I wonder if what I said is right?"

Ling Yueqing asked back, "I wonder if Your Majesty wants to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Of course it's the truth."

"Then let's go back to the house. There are some things I can only tell to the prince."

Yun Dian immediately stopped him, saying, "Your Highness, this man's martial arts skills are unfathomable..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Xiao Mingchen, "It's okay, you guys go down first, and I'll tell you about other things later."

"Yes." Hearing this, everyone had to disperse.

Ling Yueqing and Xiao Mingchen walked in silence all the way to Xiao Mingchen's study.

As soon as she entered the room, Ling Yueqing took the lead and sat on Xiao Mingchen's couch.

After spending these days together, she could see that Xiao Mingchen was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and was a good person. Even if he knew the truth, he would not blame the General's Mansion.

Thinking of this, Ling Yueqing said, "Okay, I'll show my cards."

"My name is not Yuwen Qing, nor am I the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion."

Xiao Mingchen was not very surprised by this, because he had already guessed this. He was wondering how she had deceived everyone in the General's Mansion.

"I didn't lie. They all know that I'm not their daughter."

Xiao Mingchen: “…”

He had never really thought of this possibility. After all, this was a crime of deceiving the emperor, and it would cost him his life.

"Since you are pretending to be sick, you should have spies in the court, right?"

She believed that since he was pretending to be sick, he must have some ulterior motive, and given his status, he had to be involved in court affairs.

After a long silence, Xiao Mingchen replied, "Of course there is."

"Then you should have heard that General Yuwen reported to the emperor when he first came to the capital that Miss Yuwen was missing."

"Isn't that an excuse for not wanting your daughter to marry and become a widow?"

"That's all your imagination. In fact, the general's eldest daughter is really missing, and has been missing for three whole years."

"It just so happened that when the general was taking me back to the palace, someone saw me. I look very similar to Miss Yuwen, and it's hard to explain why, so I married her to bring good luck."

Xiao Mingchen frowned. This was so ridiculous that it was almost as good as the storybook he was reading.

"Then who are you?"

"My name is Ling Yueqing. I was being hunted and ended up living in a dilapidated house... and was brought back to the mansion by General Yuwen. You know everything that happened next."

Ling Yueqing repeated to Xiao Mingchen what she had said to General Yuwen and his wife.

This also included telling them about the fact that she was being hunted, which she had not told General Yuwen and his wife. Since they were going to reveal their cards, they had to do it thoroughly.

After spending some time together, she believed in Xiao Mingchen from the bottom of her heart.

"Oh, by the way, there is also a jade pendant. Have you seen it?"

Ling Yueqing took out the jade pendant and handed it to him. She always wore the jade pendant with her.

Xiao Mingchen took the jade pendant and frowned. He had actually seen this jade pendant before, and more than once.

It seemed like I had seen something very similar on people in other countries, but I couldn't remember who it was at the moment.

So he handed the jade pendant back to Ling Yueqing, "I have seen it, I will let you know when I am sure."

"Okay." Ling Yueqing was not in a hurry. She just used someone else's body, so she had to make her life story clear.

Xiao Mingchen asked again in confusion, "Then why are you willing to marry me when you know that I'm dying and will be a widow if you marry me?"

She couldn't be so righteous as to sacrifice her entire life for a general she had never met.

Ling Yueqing thought that she came here for the inheritance, her face turned red and she found it difficult to speak.
