Lord, your grass jelly has slipped away again [Transmigration Book]

Ye Zi ignored everyone for the next day.At dusk the next day, there was a message that Princess Changning had woken up.

Gu Yan asked: "What did she say? Did this king push her down?"

It was the little eunuch next to the queen mother who came to send the letter. When she heard this, she almost fell to her knees on the ground, and hurriedly said: "No, the princess didn't say that. The princess hasn't said a word since she woke up. How to ask, she...she didn't open her mouth."

Gu Yan was a little surprised, he was ready to take the blame, but he didn't expect that the blame would not be thrown at him for a long time.

What was that man thinking?

Gu Yan dismissed the little eunuch and turned back to the inner room.

Ye Zi's flower pot was placed on the small table behind the screen, so he could just hear what they said just now.

Gu Yan sat down at the table and looked at him with his chin propped up: "You still don't plan to talk to me?"

Ye Zi struggled, and said obediently: "...What are you going to do?"

Gu Yan didn't take it seriously: "What else can I do? Since Chang Ning didn't open his mouth to wrong me, then this matter has nothing to do with me. Why should I still think about what to do?"

Ye Zi lowered her head and said nothing.

Sometimes he couldn't figure out what Gu Yan's real thoughts were, and why he seemed not to care about anything.

If it was the person in his memory, it would be absolutely impossible to swallow his anger like this.

Ye Zi asked again: "What's going on in Chang'an?"

Gu Yan smiled contemptuously: "I heard that Wen Yi was so angry that he almost came from Chang'an to fight me desperately, but was stopped by his father. There is no news from the palace, and he is probably still waiting and watching."

Now the focus is all on Chang Ning alone, and everyone is waiting for her conclusion.

Unfortunately, she didn't say anything.

The more silent you are, the more disturbing you are.Ye Zi thought for a moment, and vaguely realized something.

As the night was getting darker, Gu Yan lay down early to rest. After the man fell asleep, Ye Zi crawled out of the flowerpot and quietly jumped out of the bedroom window.

He avoided the guards and quickly found the empress' bedroom.

There were many guards outside the queen's bedroom, Ye Zi jumped onto the beam, and entered the bedroom through the gap between the beams.

As expected, there are no palace servants in the bedroom.

Ye Zi leaned over to look into the inner room, and could vaguely see the thin figure lying on the bed and inside the gauze curtain.Wen Zhi opened her eyes, staring blankly at the gauze curtain above her head, the last anger in her eyes had disappeared.

Ye Zi was about to get closer when the person on the bed suddenly turned his head and looked in his direction.Ye Zi hurriedly retreated to the beam in fright.

Suddenly, a woman's voice came from outside the hall.

"Zhi'er, haven't you thought about it yet?" The queen came out from the dark.

It was late at night, and she was still wearing a luxurious palace dress with exquisite makeup, which was in stark contrast to the haggard person on the bed who had not applied any makeup.

The queen walked up to Wen Zhi, held her hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Auntie knows, it was your father and I who pushed too hard before, and we were wrong. Auntie may not blame you for your disobedience, but why do you refuse to listen? What about us?"

Wen Zhi turned her head to look at her, closed her eyes and did not answer.

A flash of anger flashed in the queen's eyes: "Who are you showing this look to? We just want you to get close to Gu Yan. He is the prince who was conferred by the late emperor. He has a great status. Why do you feel wronged by marrying him? It's not that you don't mean anything to him, you..."

Wen Zhi suddenly laughed softly.

She seemed to have heard some very funny joke, she couldn't stop laughing, and her laughter echoed in the empty bedroom for a while, which made the queen a little terrified.

The queen couldn't bear it anymore: "Don't laugh!"

"Why don't you laugh?" Wen Zhi said, her voice was hoarse and weak, "Don't you think it's funny, aunt?"

Wen Zhidao: "Yes, I was interested in His Royal Highness Rui Wang. So I should listen to you, approach him in every possible way, seduce him, and use my own name in exchange for the qualification to marry into Rui Wang's mansion, right?"

Wen Zhi raised her head, her eyes seemed to be looking into the distance: "But aunt, I have been learning and reading with the Taifu since I was a child. Although I don't seek the most holy way, I also know what to do and what not to do."

"I'd rather die innocently than... lose my reputation and get a husband who hates me to the bone."

The queen stood up abruptly: "What do you know? The harem's favor is like this. He doesn't like you now. It's hard to guarantee that he won't like you after you marry. What is his Princess Rui? It's just a male favorite of Cheng Huan, and he can't keep it." Bloodline, what will that person fight with you? As long as you can marry..."

She seemed to realize that she had lost her composure, and suddenly stopped talking.

The queen took a deep breath and softened her voice: "Zhi'er, you are still young and don't understand many things. Auntie will not force you. Auntie has already told you that as long as you are willing to come out and identify Gu Yan and say that he is contemptuous of you, You refused to submit, so you were forced to throw yourself into the lake."

She paused, and said seductively, "As long as you are willing to speak, my aunt and your father can help you take care of everything, so that you can marry into Prince Rui's mansion in a prosperous manner."

The queen patted the back of Wen Zhi's hand and said with a smile: "In the struggle for power, women are the victims. What do you want to do with those illusory things? Only those things that are in the palm of your hand can really make us live. You Think about it."

After saying this, the queen turned and left the bedroom.

The door of the sleeping hall was closed, and the hall returned to coldness and silence.

Ye Zi sighed lightly, and suddenly heard Wen Zhi ask, "Are you still there?"

Ye Zi was startled, and froze all over.

Wen Zhi had already sat up from the bed, leaned against the head of the bed, and calmly looked at Ye Zi's direction.Ye Zi hesitated for a moment, then walked out.

Wen Zhi watched the little green grass walk to the bed quietly, without showing much surprise.

She smiled and said in a low voice, "I saw you in the garden yesterday."

Wen Zhidao: "You followed me and His Highness King Rui, hiding in the grass, am I right?"

Ye Zi looked up at her by the bed, but didn't answer.

Wen Zhi tilted her head in doubt: "Can't you speak?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't speak, just talk to me." Wen Zhi smiled palely, "I'm sorry I let you hear that just now. Do you think I'm ridiculous?"

Ye Zi whispered, "No."

Wen Zhi was a little surprised, and didn't even notice that Ye Zi's voice was familiar: "So you can talk."

Ye Zi didn't dare to say too much in front of her, so he only responded softly.

"I thought I was going to die." Wen Zhi's eyes drifted away, and she said sadly, "It would be great if I died, I don't need to face these things alive, why did you save me?"

Ye Zi couldn't help but said, "In that situation, it's impossible for him not to save you."

Ye Zi asked again: "Did you intentionally throw yourself into the lake in front of King Rui in order to arouse conflicts between him and Duke Huguo?"

Wen Zhi glanced at him in surprise.

Ye Zi continued: "If you are really dead, the Duke Protector's Mansion and the Empress will definitely not let it go. But there is no proof of death, and the truth is unknown, so they can't touch King Rui. It may seem like a deadlock, but in this way, it will be a dead end." It has completely cut off the possibility of cooperation between Prince Rui's Palace and Duke Protector's Palace."

Ye Zi paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "This is your real purpose, isn't it?"

Wen Zhi smiled shallowly, adding a bit of anger to her haggard face: "Xiao Caoxian, you are very smart."

Ye Zi still didn't understand: "But why do you..."

"No reason." Wen Zhi said lightly, "I just don't want to make everyone uncomfortable."

Wen Zhidao: "If I die in a place where no one is around, I will only leave a bone in the end, but the people I hate are still alive and well, I can't swallow this breath."

Her voice was extremely soft, and she couldn't hear any emotion, but it couldn't help but send chills down Ye Zi's spine.

"Since I was born, I have been taught that the orders of my parents cannot be disobeyed, but if the orders of my parents are wrong, do I have to obey them?" Wen Zhi smiled desolately, "Xiao Caoxian, do you know that if I didn't dance yesterday , what will happen next?"

"After our visit to the garden is over, the Queen Mother will set up a dinner party. During the banquet, my aunt will change the wine for His Royal Highness Rui. After His Royal Highness is drunk, I will be locked up with him."

Wen Zhi's voice trembled, and she closed her eyes gently: "Lonely men and widows are alone for a night, even if nothing happens, others will not believe it."

There was a chill in Ye Zi's heart.

If that was the case, Gu Yan would definitely be forced to marry Wen Zhi.

The corners of Wen Zhi's mouth curled up slightly: "They use me and treat me like a pawn. I can't benefit myself, and I can't escape this fate. If that's the case, why don't I find a way to die that I want, let me die?" It's worth dying for yourself."

She didn't want to succumb to fate, and she couldn't resist, so she wanted to use her life to destroy the careful plan of the queen and the protector.

But she didn't expect that she would be rescued by Gu Yan in the end.

Wen Zhi sighed: "I know this is very unfair to His Royal Highness King Rui, but this is the only way I can think of. I am sorry for him and caused him trouble."

Ye Zi didn't answer.

After a while, he asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do next?"

This is what he came for.

Now all the focus is on Wen Zhi, she can decide the direction of all things with one word, so Ye Zi wanted to find out what was going on in her heart.

Wen Zhi seemed to be in a dilemma too, she shook her head: "I don't know. You just heard that my aunt wants me to frame King Rui, but I can't do it. So I can't just die now, if I die, aunt If I will unscrupulously release the news that King Rui is belittling me, I will completely harm His Highness King Rui."

Wen Zhi lowered her eyes and smiled desolately: "After tossing around for a long time, I dug a hole for myself. Perhaps there is no one more stupid than me in this world."

Ye Zi couldn't bear it, stretched out a small grass stem, and patted the back of Wen Zhi's hand comfortingly.

Wen Zhi tilted her head to look at him, and asked cautiously, "Can I touch you?"

Before Ye Zi could reply, she turned her gaze away uncomfortably: "Sorry, I'm offended. I've read a lot of fairy tales and feel that there are many wonderful things in the world. I didn't expect them to meet me. I'm a little curious.”

For the first time, Ye Zi saw the shyness and innocence of a girl in her teens from her face.

Ye Zi jumped onto the bed, walked to Wen Zhi's hand, and gently hugged her hand with the leaves.

"Live on." Ye Zi whispered, "There will be a way."

Ye Zi left the Queen's bedroom, only feeling uncomfortable in the chest.He got the answer he wanted, Princess Changning would not trap Gu Yan into injustice, but he couldn't feel happy in his heart.

The little green grass with flower spikes hanging down, walked into the palace where he and Gu Yan lived listlessly, when someone grabbed the stem and lifted it up.

Ye Zi was startled, and raised her head to look.

Gu Yan held him up to him, with a half-smile: "Aifei, where have you been so late?"
