Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"Poor Ruiqing, he thought it was Yunyan who wanted to kill him until his death. What a fool! Why didn't he think of looking through Yunyan's later diary?"

"Your Majesty, are you saying that everything my mother did was for me?"

"If you take a good look at these, you'll understand what happened to your parents back then!"

Yun Shaotian, with a grim expression, quickly handed the letter to the other party.

"Mother...I'm sorry, I wronged you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

After reading all the content, Yun Qingchi finally couldn't help but burst into tears, and Yun Qingchen and Yun Qingjie rushed to his side, just like they did when they were children, wiping his tears and comforting him.

"Qing Chi, don't be sad. The royal brothers are all here. Don't blame yourself for the past anymore!"

"Yes, what we should do now is to find the person who forced your mother to kill your father. He is the culprit of all this..."

"Ahem, ahem, come here, you two. I have something to tell you!"

Yun Shaotian quickly pulled the two aside and whispered, while Yun Qingchi walked up to Bai Yue, handed the letter in his hand to her without waiting for her to speak, and said in a choked voice.

"Xiaoyue, you're right. What my mother gave me wasn't poison, but an antidote. You'll know everything about it through these letters!"

"..."

She didn't say anything, but just took the things silently. When she opened Yun Ruiqing's letter, she found that although the words were short, they were full of affection.

"Yunyan! I'm sorry. It's because of my father's order that you are forced to be with me. I hope that after I die, you can truly be free!"

"If you meet someone you truly love, be with him. But can you please not get married? That way, when you go to the underworld, you will still be my Princess Rui!"

"That brat Qing Chi is getting more and more noisy. You must never indulge him in the future. It's best to find him a strong wife. If he dares to make you angry, let his wife beat him up!"

"I'm sorry, I can't be with you anymore. And please don't feel sad, because dying in your hands would be a very happy thing for me!"

"If there is a next life, I hope we can meet in a world without the struggle for power. Then I will still fall in love with you at first sight, and I will definitely be with you forever and happily."

"..."

Bai Yue silently folded the letter, and when she opened the first page of her diary, she saw the following: "Is this Prince Rui really His Majesty's son? His Majesty is so wise and powerful, but why does he only smile at me foolishly every day?"

The first half of the diary records how Yunyan was slowly moved by Yun Ruiqing's affection, while the second half is a record of a mother who loves her son and her daily parenting tips.

"Qing Chi sneezed today. Could he have caught a cold?"

"Qing Chi looks so good in this dress. He is indeed my son. He becomes cuter the more I look at him!"

"I prayed for Qing Chi today and wished my child peace, happiness and health forever!"

"Rui Qing really doesn't want to be emperor. He truly has no intention of disloyalty. Father must have believed the slander. I, I must go and explain to him!"

"Didn't the Emperor pass away? Aren't we, the death warriors, free now? Why did the leader force me to kill Ruiqing? Why did he poison Qingchi?"

When she saw the content of this page, Bai Yue suddenly felt that there must be some hidden story behind the late emperor's suicide by taking poison. Just as she was trying to think about it, Yun Qingchen and Yun Qingjie walked over with grim expressions.

"There is no father-son relationship in the realm of kingship. Grandpa Huang is truly a qualified king..."

"No, I think the late emperor may have committed suicide by taking poison in order to save Qing Chi's father..."

She didn't wait for everyone's reaction, but just spoke to Yun Qingjie.

"Qing Jie, let's go and explore that tunnel. Maybe we can find some clues about what happened back then!"

"it is good!"

The other party didn't waste any time and ran towards the tunnel with Bai Yue in his arms.

"Oh my god, these tunnels actually connect the government offices and noble residences of the entire Wenqu capital..."

Two hours later, Yun Qingjie, who had been exploring the tunnel with Bai Yue, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Well, I guess one of your Yun family's ancestors went to such lengths to keep tabs on officials and nobles. After all, this tunnel looks incredibly old, at least a hundred years old..."

"But, Grandfather Emperor never told Father about this secret passage. Is it because he thinks Father's throne is a usurpation..."

"No, no, no, I think the reason why the late emperor didn't tell father about this secret passage was because he felt it was no longer useful!"

"After all, ever since the late emperor used his seven sons to basically wipe out the power of the aristocratic families, all power has been concentrated in the hands of your Yun family!"

Bai Yue interrupted Yun Qingjie without thinking, and the other party thought for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.

"Xiao Yue, are you saying that my royal grandfather took in so many concubines not because he was philandering, but because he wanted to use them to destroy the family power behind them?"

"Well, yes, I once looked at the harem list of the previous dynasty, and I found that except for your grandmother who was the daughter of a minor official, the rest of the concubines were all daughters of nobles!"

"While they were fighting fiercely in the harem, their families were also competing against each other in the former dynasty. And the Suzaku Gate Incident that my father staged not only wiped out his seven brothers, but also wiped out all the aristocratic families entrenched in the entire Wenqu area!"

She walked forward as she spoke, and after a few steps she realized that Yun Qingjie was not following her.

"Qingjie, what's wrong? Why don't you leave?"

"...Is power really that important? It can make Grandpa Emperor disregard even human relations and family ties..."

"Well, the late emperor did this to concentrate power in the hands of the royal family, but he didn't do it for himself!"

"Because there was no interference from the aristocratic families, the entire Wenqu Kingdom accumulated astonishing wealth in just over a decade, and the people were able to live and work in peace and contentment, no longer suffering from hunger and cold!"

"The late emperor sacrificed most of his descendants for the sake of the entire country and was branded as a philanderer. Maybe in your eyes he wasn't a good grandfather, but in my opinion he was indeed a good emperor!"

Bai Yue spoke frankly about her views on the late emperor.

"Xiaoyue, what would you do if you were in Grandpa Huang's position? Would you sacrifice everything for the people of the world like him?"

"meeting!"

She said the word directly, and Yun Qingjie suddenly hugged her and said solemnly after a long silence.

"Xiao Yue, if that time comes, you must sacrifice me first. I know I can't compare to the position in your heart that my brother and Qing Chi hold, so at least in this matter, please let me be the first!"

"Qing Jie, what we were just talking about was just an analogy, why did you say these things out of nowhere?"

"It's not inexplicable, it's sincere, because I know if it weren't for that marriage certificate, Xiaoyue, you wouldn't have given me any chance at all!"

"It's been like this since I was little. Father and Mother can only see my brother and Qing Chi, while I'm like an invisible person, always invisible to them!"

"So when I ran to the Wulin Alliance, they didn't try to stop me. If it weren't for my brother's accident, they wouldn't have asked me to go back..."

When Yun Qingjie said this, tears were already streaming down his face, and the next second he kissed the person in his arms like crazy.

"You're the same as them, right? You don't really take me seriously. After all, we haven't known each other for long, and I didn't treat you well at first..."

"But Xiaoyue, I will change. Please don't ignore me. I was moved the first time you smiled at me. It's all my fault for being so stupid and stubborn..."

Drops of tears bloomed on Bai Yue's body like flowers, and she leaned against the wall and quickly asked the traditional Chinese medicine book in her mind.

"Xiaozhong, is there something wrong with the air in this tunnel?"
