Chapter 28
As soon as Du Lanyan's words came out, Wei Jiali froze, and then stared at her sharply.

"People in the world say that the prince loves chrysanthemums like crazy, and people are as indifferent and elegant as chrysanthemums, but why do you have that in your room?" Seeing Wei Jiali's murderous gaze, Du Lanyan was startled. Force yourself to calm down.

He pointed to the potted flower on the table not far away.

"That's a pot of chrysanthemums." Wei Jiali's voice was cold, and his eyes were extremely cold, looking at Du Lanyan, as if he saw a dead person, because she knew his secret, and there was only one way to die.

"At first I thought so too, but how can chrysanthemums bloom in summer?" Du Lanyan asked back, and then said: "That potted flower is willow orchid."

"Mountain willow is a perennial herb plant of the daisy family. It looks very similar to a chrysanthemum, but it is not a chrysanthemum."

In modern times, she had read some books introducing plants, and there was an introduction of willows on them, so she later judged that this potted flower was not a chrysanthemum, but a willows.

"It's just a pot of willow orchid, what can it explain?"

"This potted flower, the prince can say that it looks like a chrysanthemum, so he collected it. However, all the furniture here is carved with patterns of willow orchids. These can't be a coincidence, can they?"

"My lord, don't you know that the flower language of willow orchid is ambition?"

A person who is obsessed with chrysanthemums will never mistake the willow orchids for chrysanthemums, so she infers from this that Wei Jiali's indifferent fame and fortune are just pretending, and there is a lion lurking in his heart, hiding behind his forbearing surface. It's just around the corner.

Of course, she couldn't be sure based on this alone, but suddenly remembered that in her previous life, before Wei Jiarui ascended the throne, King Li died suddenly.

At that time, she was immersed in pain and didn't pay much attention to this matter, but after seeing King Li today, she suddenly realized that at that time, he should have failed in forcing the palace to seize the throne and was secretly executed. Wei Jiarui didn't want to publicize such a royal scandal, so he announced to the world that he died suddenly.

"Hmph, you're slandering me and wanting to seize the throne with just a pot of flowers. You know, with just one sentence like that, you will die without a place to bury you!" Wei Jiali's eyes were extremely cold, and he could have dealt with this woman immediately, but, Thinking of what this woman has done in recent days, I feel that she is not simple, so I want to see how she can convince me next.

"My lord, if I'm not completely sure, I won't say such outrageous words. Now, you shouldn't be obsessed with this matter, but think carefully about cooperating with me."

Du Lanyan changed the subject and asked her to produce definite evidence to prove that Wei Jiali had ambitions, but she couldn't do it, and she would never tell him, she knew what would happen in the next few years, and also knew that he failed to force the palace and ended up dead Doomed?

"Cooperation?" Wei Jiali said in a disdainful tone.

"Yes." Du Lanyan was very firm.

"Why?" Wei Jiali was even more disdainful. In terms of status, there was a huge gap between the two of them. She should feel honored if he wanted to use her. , is really ridiculous.

"Because we have a common enemy - Wei Jiarui. As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. I think we can cooperate and get what we need. What you want is the crown prince, and what I want is Wei Jia Rui and Han Ruxue's fate."

Du Lanyan stopped going around in circles with him, and directly stated her purpose.

"Woman, you think too highly of yourself. You have nothing now. What can you use to cooperate with me? Just rely on the little tricks you played before?" It was about how she escaped from being tortured by Song Lao Er and others. thing.

"I don't think highly of myself, but the prince seems to look down on me. The prince should know that 20 years ago, the throne should have belonged to Prince Chen. If Prince Chen was on the prince's side, wouldn't the prince have a better chance? "

She was reminding him in a disguised form that Prince Chen, who had never been close to women a few days ago, took her under his wing. This meant that her friendship with Prince Chen was extraordinary, and if he planned well, he might be able to get the support of Prince Chen.

"You are sent by Han Ruxue. Do you think this king should believe you?" Wei Jiali is not a fool. This woman knew his secret and suddenly came to discuss cooperation with him. He hid it so well, No one except his confidants knew about his ambitions, and this woman would know, which inevitably made him suspect that Wei Jiarui sent him to test him.

What's more, Prince Chen has always supported Wei Jiarui, this time they might join forces to act and take this opportunity to get rid of him.

"Han Ruxue made Jin Xiangyu make things difficult for me. These princes all know about it. How could I belong to them?"

"It's just a trick, do you really think this king is a fool? Tonight, no matter what, you are doomed. Tell me about your last words. I will bring them to Wei Jiarui for you when I have a chance."

Wei Jiali is suspicious by nature, this woman was locked in the dark room yesterday, but she suddenly appeared here today, and the formation in the courtyard has not been damaged in the slightest, presumably there is an expert to help, in order to get close to him and find out his identity Secret, and then annihilated him in one fell swoop.

He's not that stupid, knowing it's a trap, but still jumping into it.

Du Lanyan looked at Wei Jiali, speechless for a while, she thought things too simply, thinking that as long as she knew Wei Jiali's ambitions and confessed that she could help him, she could reach a consensus with him, but she didn't want him to be such a paranoid people.

However, if she were herself, she would doubt it. After all, she did not produce any real evidence to prove that she was not sent by Wei Jiarui. She, she couldn't escape anyway.

He would like to see how this woman resolves this time?
After a while, when Wei Jiali's patience was about to run out, Du Lanyan finally spoke, but what she said was not the last words.

"In the 23rd year of Jianzhao, I was 13 years old. In August of that year, the eldest prince came to the Du family to propose a marriage. In September, I was full of joy and married into the eldest prince's mansion. I thought it was a lover who finally got married, but I stayed alone in the empty house. , sat withered until dawn, and he married me in the name of loving me, but spent time with his concubine Han Ruxue on the wedding night, and then ignored me for three years. At the beginning of Jianzhao 26, with the help of his father, he Sitting on the position of prince and entering the East Palace, he still treats me lukewarm. In April, the Du family was framed for collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, and the whole family was arrested. I begged him to recite as husband and wife and save the family. He promised on the surface, They secretly threw me a divorce letter, and put me in prison under the slogan of killing my relatives with righteousness. On the day when the whole family beheaded me, I was rescued. The person who rescued me was Han Ruxue. She spent the rest of her life peacefully, but people robbed the carriage and money on the way, sold me into the Xiangyu Building, and secretly made Jin Xiangyu torture me in every possible way. She thought I didn't know, but I knew it all."

As Du Lanyan spoke, her eyes were empty and her face was full of sadness.

"Chen Wang has some friendship with the Du family, and knows my identity. In order to keep me, he claimed that I am his woman. Yesterday morning, he was going to take me away, but for some reason he broke the appointment. I was imprisoned by Jin Xiangyu." Into the dark room, but I escaped from the secret passage and ran here, there is a formation here, I guess the person who lives here may be the real owner of Xiangyu Tower, so I broke the formation and came in and waited, but came in After that, I smelled a scent of chrysanthemums, which I smelled on you the night I pretended to be crazy, so I guessed that you are the owner of Xiangyu Tower, so I have been waiting here for you."

"I once wanted to spend the rest of my life in a normal way, but they won't let me go, and they won't let me have a good time, so why should I let them have a good time? Wei Jiarui'en will avenge him, and I want to use his blood to pay homage to my father's soul."

At this moment, she was curled up in one place, her hands hugging her knees, her face was full of grief and indignation.

Wei Jiali looked at her silently, as if chewing the truth in her words.
