Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 868 I am more concerned about where the soul of the former Crown Princess is.

The embarrassment of being knocked back by a teenage girl's words at that time still lingers. This incident may be like a thorn in the throat that cannot be resolved for many years. After all these years, it will remain fresh. .

The look in his eyes became increasingly obscure. Li Yiwei leaned against the back of the chair and looked at the little girl unscrupulously, from the sideburns that covered her face to the thin and thin back. Even when she was kneeling, the girl's back was not visible. Curved...so proud.

He held the corner of his mouth and chuckled lazily, "If I say that this third condition is not impossible to agree to...but I want you to kneel down and beg me to agree to you...what should you do?"

Before he finished speaking, the other party responded calmly, "Daughter of the people, I beg you."

……

Li Yiwei was stunned, and the tip of his tongue was stiff against his cheek. Ji Wuyan's crispness was completely beyond his expectation. Only then did he realize that because Ji Wuyan was kneeling, this so-called " "Kneel down and beg", you don't even have to kneel down, the "begging" thing is natural and perfunctory.

The expected "fun" never came, only the resentment after being perfunctory and the anger that had nowhere to vent - after all, she was the one who asked her to kneel down and beg for mercy, and others also begged, but in the end she was not satisfied. It's still yourself. Li Yiwei rubbed his back teeth and said in a weird voice, "So this is Miss Ji's attitude towards begging for help? Also, the Ji family has a big business, so Miss Ji must have never begged for help..."

Ji Wuyan did not raise his head, the hand on his forehead relaxed, and then he asked softly, "According to His Highness's wishes, how can a civilian girl beg you?" His voice was still calm, there was no hint of happiness or anger, and there was even a hint of anger. Annoyingly calm.

Instead, Li Yiwei looks like a clown.

In fact, Li Yiwei hadn't figured out how to ask Ji Wuyan to beg him. He was just worried about the step he had just taken. He felt that if he saw the little girl begging for him pitifully and crying, this feeling would be like a lump in his throat. can be eliminated. But they were not masters and servants, not superiors and subordinates. They were just talking about business. If Ji Wuyan hadn't asked for a too high price, he wouldn't have received such a great gift.

What's more, where is Ji Wuyan's identity? If the punishment is severe, the business will not be done without justice, not to mention the Ji family, even Ning Guo Gongfu will have to turn against him... However, at this time, if he waved his hand and said He said, "That's all, I'll give you my full consent," but he was really unwilling to do so. After thinking again and again, he stood up slowly while holding on to the armrest, walked to stand in front of Ji Wuyan with his hands behind his back, and looked down at the unmoving little girl. After a while, he raised his fingertips and pointed to the yard where the clouds were gradually gathering outside, " He said, "Go, kneel down in the yard."

He thought that it must be very uncomfortable for such a proud little girl to kneel in the yard in front of everyone, with servants coming and going and pointing fingers at her.

Ji Wuyan really didn't expect that Li Yiwei could think of such a thing. At that time, he subconsciously took a step back. Ji Wuyan didn't notice it. She just felt that what Li Yiwei said before was actually quite reasonable. Whether it was opening the imperial mausoleum or divorcing the wife of the former prince, it was very important for a new man who had just ascended the throne. It is indeed detrimental to the emperor's reputation, but she is the one who sincerely performed the great gift.

Now that the other party wants to kneel in the courtyard, there is no harm in kneeling down. She looked up at him and confirmed to Li Yiwei calmly, "If the girl goes to kneel in the courtyard, will the prince be willing to agree to the girl's three conditions?" However, such calmness was obviously a bit unpleasant in the eyes of the other party. Li Yiwei looked away and looked at the increasingly gloomy sky, "Just kneel for one stick of incense! If you kneel for one stick of incense, I will promise you."

Ji Wuyan looked back at the yard. The surging clouds on the horizon seemed to indicate that it would snow soon... Did Li Yiwei want her to kneel in the snow? It's okay, she doesn't like to owe people favors. It was her who borrowed a knife to kill people in the East Palace. Now that one prescription is exchanged for these three conditions, she is indeed taking a big advantage. If she can clear this favor in this way , that’s fine.

She nodded without saying much, stood up with her hands on her hands, moved her cold and numb knees a little and walked outside.

Just as straightforward.

Li Yiwei was almost dumbfounded from behind: Isn’t the little girl always proud and proud? What does it mean to be so obedient now?
"Miss Ji." By some strange coincidence, he called out. When he saw the other party turning around, her face was calm and there was no hint of the unpleasantness of being made things difficult for her. He was a little puzzled, so he asked again, "Miss Ji..." If I say that I can only agree to two conditions for you, and let the girl choose two of the three conditions, how will the girl choose? "

People are always greedy. If they have one, they will want two. If they have two, they will want more, and they will never be satisfied. Li Yiwei liked to watch their expressions when they made choices, and their indecision was particularly funny. He also wanted to see Ji Wuyan's choice and hesitation, whether it was the common people, the Duke's palace, or the Shangguan Yuan who deserved her to kneel down and salute.

Unexpectedly, Li Yiwei would ask such a question. Ji Wuyan was slightly startled, his expression turned dangerous, and he asked playfully, "Your Majesty... you want to break your promise? This is not the way to be a king."

The woman who was calm and calm at that time finally revealed the scratching claws under the calm surface, and her words also had a bit of "Ji Wuyan" meaning - Li Yiwei finally found a few words. Feeling very familiar, he smiled and shrugged, "No... I'm just curious and want to hear Miss Ji's answer. I'm just asking casually."

Ji Wuyan nodded. Since the other party "asked casually", she also "answered casually" and shrugged, "If the prince only agrees to two conditions, and the daughter of the people is willing to accept only two conditions, then Just the first two.”

Li Yiwei was surprised. In Li Yiwei's own perception, Ji Wuyan seemed easy-going but was actually cold and cold. The lives of people in the world may not be more important than the cats and dogs around her.

"I thought the girl was more concerned about where the former princess's soul was."

"Yes." Ji Wuyan didn't hide it, "Where her soul goes is indeed very important to me... If the prince doesn't respond, the daughter of the people will have no choice but to go out and take risks to see if it is a secret room underground in the East Palace that is difficult to break into." Some of the royal tombs are more difficult to break into..." After that, he shrugged with a playful smile, "Just say whatever you want."

Li Yiwei choked, and his face inevitably turned cold. He reminded Ji Wuyan in a cold voice, "Girl, be careful what you say. The secret room is a secret room. Since the girl has the ability to escape, she can go there every day. However, the imperial mausoleum is different. The imperial mausoleum is a serious crime against the nine clans, so I advise the girl to be more careful."
