When Ji Ruoqing took the Ye Mingzhu that Ji Ruoyu gave her, she probably understood what Ji Ruoyu meant.

Just let her take short hands and never go out again, so she stayed in the yard obediently.

If she dared to go out again, not only would Ye Mingzhu take it back, but also severely punish her.

Although Ji Ruoyu's original words are very euphemistic, what Ji Ruoqing understands is just that.

Ji Ruoqing didn't know what the scourge was outside, so Ji Ruoyu was so worried, and even sent two people dressed in the courtyard to guard the outside of the courtyard, guarding the gate very seriously.

Ji Ruoqing tried to get close to them, but no matter what she said, they seemed to be unable to hear her. The expression on her face remained motionless, which was really boring.

Ji Ruoqing didn't know, Ji Ruoyu was worried that she would be easily discovered by someone who wanted her after she went out, and he didn't want her to go out to come into contact with any new things or people...

Only when she is full of hearts and eyes and only his elder brother, she is his good Qingqing.

Ji Ruoqing was lying bored on the bed, holding Ye Mingzhu aloft, and observing the lotus pattern on the top of the stone cyan tent through the milky white halo flowing in the Ye Mingzhu.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from somewhere, causing the window slats in her room to open suddenly, and the sound of "squeaking" seemed very loud and harsh in the quiet afternoon.

"Where is the demon wind..." Ji Ruoqing got up, stepped on the soft-soled pearl-embroidered shoes and walked to the edge of the window. He glanced left and right. There was nothing but the fallen leaves of the jujube tree in the yard twirling.

Ji Ruoqing sighed: "Why don't there be a monster wind and no monsters come out to play... It's also easy to solve the boredom..."

A muffled chuckle suddenly sounded in the quiet room, as if there was a thunder on the ground, and Ji Ruoqing jumped back in shock.

Xia Xianyu walked out of the red sandalwood carved mirror heart screen with blessing characters and smiled evilly and said, "How is it, my monster is okay?"

"..." Ji Ruoqing gave him an angry look, "Youkai can't scare people, you can."

Xia Xianyu's chuckle was even more pronounced. He glanced at the room casually, and sat down on the side of Ji Ruoqing's bed without thinking of himself as an outsider at all.

"Ye Mingzhu?" Xia Xianyu noticed the Ye Mingzhu quietly lying on the quilt, and his expression changed slightly.

"Mine!" Ji Ruoqing rushed over and put Ye Mingzhu into her arms, watching Xia Xianyu warily.

Xia Xianyu's long and narrow eyes picked up, and he half-leaned on the lankan with a tired expression: "The Pearl of the night seems to be familiar."

Ji Ruoqing covered her chest and looked at him defensively: "You are wrong, there is nothing familiar, but you, how can you break into the girl's boudoir?!"

"..." Xia Xianyu raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he heard some big joke, "Are you a girl...?"

"Humph." Ji Ruoqing snorted coldly, turning her face away, not wanting to pay attention to him at all.

"Hey, I said Ji Ruoqing, my Royal Highness has tried so hard to sneak in to see you, how do you treat me?" Xia Xianyu hugged her hands on her chest, so she could look at Ji Ruoqing in his spare time.

"You, you, you...how could you guess my identity?!" Ji Ruoqing stammered suddenly, looking inexplicably panicked.

Xia Xianyu chuckled her lips and said contentedly, "It's too easy to guess, mainly..."

Xia Xianyu stood up, leaned into Ji Ruoqing's ear and said, "Although you have changed your face, your movements and expressions are too similar to before."

"..." Ji Ruoqing didn't expect her acting skills to be so bad that she finally understood why Ji Ruoyu tried so hard not to want her to go out.

She bit her lip and thought for a moment, and Chao Xia Xianyu showed a threatening smile: "If you dare to speak out, I will let my brother kill him."

"..." Although Xia Xianyu is not afraid of Ji Ruoyu, she is always on guard against poisoning. It is also a headache.

Xia Xianyu shrugged and said indifferently: "Don't worry, I didn't plan to say anything. I'm not interested in your affairs. Did you forget that you were crying and clamoring to marry me before, at that time... "

"Stop!" Ji Ruoqing interrupted him angrily, and gave him a fierce look. "It is enough for a person to be blind once, not a second time!"

"..." Xia Xianyu looked at Ji Ruoqing with an aggrieved expression, "So you used to be blind..."

"Yes, and there is still water in your mind." Ji Ruoqing added without hesitation.

"..." Xia Xianyu gave her a meaningful look, and said jokingly, "I also think I had some water in my mind at the time. In fact, marrying you at that time doesn't seem to be a bad thing..."

Xia Xianyu swept Ji Ruoqing unscrupulously from head to toe, revealing a more meaningful smile.

Ji Ruoqing looked at him vigilantly, stepped back and hugged herself: "If you want to be beautiful, I also want to thank you for not marrying back then!"

"..." Xia Xianyu's relaxed expression gradually became a little dignified. He stared at Ji Ruoqing for a long time before saying, "Actually, I owe you a sorrow."

"??" Ji Ruoqing looked at him inexplicably.

"If...it wasn't because you wanted to marry me wholeheartedly, your father wouldn't fall into my father's plan because he wanted to marry us Haoguo, so he wouldn't..." Xia Xianyu said in a low voice. This past incident was eloquent, and his tone was full of guilt.

Only then did Ji Ruoqing understand that it turned out that the leader of Ji Ruoqing’s destruction was because the original Ji Ruoqing was arguing to marry Xia Xianyu, and Ji Ruoqing’s father at the time was really wrong. She is very fond of Ji Ruoqing, so she only has to agree to her request and marry Haoguo.

But this marriage was actually just a cover. Haoguo's emperor had been eyeing Ji Guo for a long time, and had already set a trap, just waiting for Ji to drill.

The more Ji Ruoqing listened, the more he felt the enlightenment.

No wonder Ji Ruoyu forced her to go to bed for Ye Qianchen at that time, saying that it was for her to make atonement.

It turned out that in Ji Ruoyu's view, she was the only cause of Ji's destruction, so it was normal to have a bad attitude towards her at the beginning.

Ji Ruoqing sighed: "There is nothing to say, it's fate... You seem to care about your sister, but her relationship with me is incompatible, you should know...?"

"I know, Yinglan did something wrong. Although she prevented the catastrophe for you, you still know nothing about it. It is not your intention to let her block the catastrophe for you. Actually speaking, you She is also innocent, and the person she should hate shouldn't be you..."

Ji Ruoqing was a little moved, and finally met someone who was similar to her three views...

"Oh, I'm all to blame." Xia Xianyu followed with a sigh, "That was a long time ago, earlier than when you clamored to marry me... ahem, it happened that Ji Ruoyu took you with you at the time. The soldiers in the frontier were rewarded and guarded by the border. After hearing the news, the emperor father forced me to go to experience, and I had to take someone to Ji Guo to tie you up and kill you.

"But that group of beasts...Although I took them in name, they didn't listen to my instructions. Instead, they had already received my father's order, knowing that you have a cinnabar mole at the end of your eyebrows, and it happened that our orchid was also there. Around there, they tied the wrong person and tied Yinglan."

"That group of beasts thought that Yinglan was you...My father's order was only for them to kill you, but when I arrived, the group of beasts had already killed Yinglan..."

Xia Xianyu's voice became smaller and smaller, with a trace of pain and dignity that contradicted his usual inattentive indolence: "If I stick to incense later, Yinglan will be killed by them first. …"

Ji Ruoqing also frowned tightly. She knew that if they had not mistakenly thought Bai Yinglan was her, then they would probably be insulted. The original Ji Ruoqing would have been insulted...

Ji Ruoqing couldn't help asking: "The matter between Bai Yinglan and Ye Qianchen..."

Xia Xianyu’s expression became more complicated, and there was something inexhaustible: "In fact, when we received the news, Ye Qianchen might also be in that small town, so my father not only gave them the murderer. Order, and if you find Ye Qianchen’s deeds, you will also directly kill him..."

"Back then, Ye Qianchen happened to meet Yinglan. Both of them were in a cave. The beasts found Yinglan and dragged her away. They did not search the cave carefully. Ye Qianchen hid in the cave. Escaped from the gravel..."

At that time, Ye Qianchen was still a teenager, and his martial arts was not diligent. He could only watch Yinglan being dragged away, so he was not only grateful and guilty for her, but also because of the pain and helplessness of her incompetence at that time.

Later, Xia Xianyu's father knew that he had missed such an excellent opportunity to kill Ye Qianchen, and he was so angry that he hadn't eaten all day.

Ji Ruoqing was stunned when she heard it, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "So many of us have got together, it's really fate..."

Xia Xianyu's expression became more and more complicated, and he wanted to speak again. After a long time, he said: "Sometimes, do you have things you obviously don't want to do but still do, as if you were destined to do these things."

"For example, I obviously don't like red, but I feel that I am destined to wear red. Every time someone makes clothes, I can't help choosing red fabric..."

"I think Ye Qianchen and Yinglan both appeared in the small town over there by appointment, which is the same reason."

Ji Ruoqing was terrified, and she probably understood by this time that her guess was faintly confirmed.

In the world composed of this original novel, one can only move forward along the general plot line, and each character can only live within the framework set by the author.

For example, Xia Xianyu didn't like red, but the author set him to wear red every time he appeared, so he could only wear red.

For another example, Ye Qianchen knew that Bai Yinglan was lying, but the author set him to believe that he could only believe.

Everyone has no absolute freedom. Where the plot progresses, what should happen, and what should be done, all seem to be manipulated by an invisible hand, step by step.
