The long palace wall winds all the way, and the purple wisteria hanging down on both sides has signs of withering. On the seven-seven white jade steps, there are gray eaves and black tiles, and the palace lanterns sway gently in the autumn wind, staining it with a glaze color.

The palace of Yin State was very different from what she had imagined.

Different from the outer city which is simple, heavy and aggressive, the palace in the inner city is elegant, light, exquisite and magnificent.

And along the way, except for the faint sound of skirts dragging on the floor when the maids walked, the entire palace seemed as calm as dead water.

This kind of calmness made every pore in her body tremble. She tried to raise her whole mind to feel the undercurrent beneath the calmness.

"Your Majesty, we have been brought here." The maids stopped in front of a palace and did not go in. They stood in two rows. The glazed palace lanterns they held in their hands were all tilted at the same angle.

They all knelt down and said: "Noble sir, please."

Ji Ranyue: "..."

It always felt like I had stumbled into the scene of some large evil/sect organization.

She silently swallowed the non-existent saliva, crossed the high threshold, and entered the palace.

The wooden door behind creaked and closed automatically.

What should I do if I become more nervous?!

In the three years since she came to this world, Ji Ranyue has naturally heard various rumors about King Yin.

Because he is very famous.

In the beginning, Yin State was just a small country located in the northeast, struggling to survive amid the attacks from Zhou, Wei, and Chu.

But starting from King Yin, everything changed. He first destroyed Wei, then united with Chu and Zhou, and finally rebelled against Chu, united with Qin, and destroyed Zhou together, forcibly turning the six vassal states into the current world structure where four countries coexist.

.

Dongyin, Western Qin, Southern Chu, and Northern Qi.

There was originally a mid-week period, um, but just a few days ago, the country fell.

Well, this is really a sad story.

Qi and Chu are both old vassal states with strong strength.

Qin Yin is an emerging vassal state. It has rapidly improved its national power through reforms in the past ten years.

As for the Zhou Kingdom...Three hundred years ago, the whole world returned to the Zhou Dynasty. This can be said to be a true portrayal of "all the people in the world are the king's land; the shores of the land are all the king's ministers".

However, three hundred years later, the Zhou Kingdom disappeared.

If she had known that the White Moonlight System was a trap for her, she wouldn't have wiped out Zhou Guo so quickly.

In the palace, the lamps and candles in front of the screens on both sides were flickering. In the alternating light and dark, Ji Ranyue saw the figure writing and marking papers in front of the case.

It was just a shadow, but she felt a strong sense of oppression.

In the empty palace, the only sound was the man's heavy and rapid breathing... No, this King Yin seemed to be ill.

Moreover, the illness is unclear.

Ji Ranyue suppressed the thoughtful look in her eyes, and when she raised her eyes again, she was already in a state of trembling fear.

"Greetings...Greetings to King Yin." When the girl saluted, she almost stumbled to the ground because her knees were unstable. She managed to stabilize her shaky body, then timidly looked at the screens on both sides, and quickly dodged.

Then he moved back to his toes.

The eyes observe the nose, and the nose observes the heart.

"Eldest Princess, you don't have to be like this. I'm not a man-eating monster." The man placed the approved bamboo slips in the corner of the document, put down his ink pen, stood up and walked over to her.

Ji Ranyue raised her head slightly, and then she saw his whole face clearly.

King Yin has a relatively typical northern appearance, with high brow bones, deep eye sockets, straight nose bones, and sharp thin lips. His face is square and he looks upright and majestic.

And very young.

This sense of youthfulness is not simply due to his handsome appearance, but more to his bright eyes, which seem to be burning with ambition that will never be extinguished.

Such ambition, coupled with the power he holds, creates a very impactful temperament that will make people surrender to him involuntarily.

Of course, this has no effect on Ji Ranyue.

When it comes to imperial demeanor, who can compare to Brother Zheng?

What's more, these days, she is still chatting and laughing under Brother Zheng's death gaze every day. Her ability to withstand stress has been rising in a straight line!

Just a vassal king.

But as much disdain as she felt in her heart, she showed fear on her face.

"Yin... King Yin summoned Ranyue at this time. What is the... important thing?" The moonlight was soaked in frost, the candlelight swayed, and the girl's face was as pale as snow. She trembled slightly, revealing a kind of lethargy.

The feeling of brokenness that people want to destroy severely.

Prince Yin's gaze roamed wildly over every inch of the girl's body in front of him, but his eyes were cold to the bone, without any trace of desire.

"The princess is indeed a beauty that is hard to find in the world. It's just a pity that I don't like women who are too smart."

Haha, who cares about your likes!

Ji Ranyue rolled her eyes countless times in her heart, but her face was still full of panic, "Ran... Ranyue doesn't know what King Yin means by this."

"Eldest Princess, don't you really know that this time Xiao Wu sent troops to the Kingdom of Zhou? On a whim, I sent several scouts to go with him, and as a result, I discovered something very interesting."

"Is it possible that what Prince Yin discovered has something to do with Ranyue? This... how is this possible?" Ji Ranyue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes were already tainted with a hint of cold color.

"Elder Princess, why are you so eager to deny it? Speaking of which, the Yin State army was able to destroy the Zhou State so quickly. I have to thank the princess very much."

"It turns out that King Yin summoned me here to thank me, but now, why do I feel that this situation is more like threatening me?" There was a hint of mockery on her lips, and her eyes were cold.

The kind-hearted little white flower who has been pretending to be in front of others for three years can finally take off her disguise tonight, which is quite easy for Ji Ranyue.

It's just that she still doesn't understand what the purpose of King Yin is in meeting her?

"I am just curious. I am curious about what kind of woman would be so ruthless to destroy my country. I am curious about what kind of woman makes the Three Kingdoms Army the blade to achieve my goals."

"Oh, are you satisfied with King Yin? What do you see before your eyes?" When Ji Ranyue showed such a sarcastic look, her eyes would subconsciously narrow, and the ends of her raised eyes revealed a bit of indescribable charm.

, so beautiful and sultry.

"I am very satisfied, but I still want to ask the eldest princess, why?"

Why do you want to bring about your own destruction and hasten the fall of the Zhou Kingdom?

Of course she is all about the mission.

"Does an empire that is rotten from top to bottom still need to exist?" Ji Ranyue turned her head and looked out the window at the gentle moonlight, her eyes dim.

"You are lying. If you are really as the eldest princess said, you are extremely disappointed with the entire empire. You should have dragged King Zhou and a group of dignitaries to be buried with you when you jumped off the city wall. But the fact is-"

King Yin's voice suddenly rose, with endless pressure. He raised Ji Ranyue's chin, looked directly into her eyes, and said without missing a trace of strangeness, "Except for you, when the city gate was broken, Zhou

The king and all the dignitaries were nowhere to be found, and the army searched the royal city all night long, but no one was captured!"

"The so-called destruction of the Zhou Kingdom is nothing more than the destruction of an empty shell! Tell me, where is the King of Zhou now?"

"I don't know!" Ji Ranyue said every word without any hesitation in her tone, and her eyes were clear and firm, showing no signs of lying.

"Indeed, Ji Ciyue had already escaped through the secret passage with a group of confidants and treasures before the city gate was breached, because from the beginning, he knew that I was adding fuel to the flames and helping the enemy attack the Zhou Kingdom."

"How is that possible?!" King Yin's cold and solemn face finally showed a crack.

If he were Ji Ciyue, there was no way he could have left Ji Ranyue alive.

Why didn't he kill Ji Ranyue at the beginning?

"Prince Yin, there is no need to overdo the conspiracy theory. In fact, the truth is very simple." Ji Ranyue suppressed the smile on her lips. She took advantage of his trance and turned her head and neck to the side, freeing herself from his restraint. Then she took half a step back and pulled

Opened up the distance between the two.

She has no interest in hooking up with older men.

Moreover, when she saw Prince Yin being shocked by Jiang Ciyue's crazy behavior, she actually wanted to laugh.

"Although Ji Ciyue is a complete lunatic and a hopeless bad guy, one thing is that he is very good. He never goes back on his word. He will never go back on anything he promises, and he doesn't like to do the same thing in person.

, a set behind."

"Before the plan to destroy the Zhou Kingdom started, I made a bet with him. The bet was the survival of the Zhou Kingdom. Then, I won. It's that simple."

Ji Ciyue himself was not very interested in being the king of Zhou. He grabbed this position just to go against Lord Pingxin at first. Later, Lord Pingxin was played to death by him, and the old King of Zhou was so angry that he

I am tired of the position of King of Zhou.

Later, he began to torment the people around him, and finally, he tormented the entire Zhou Kingdom.

Once, she naively thought that crazy criticism like Ji Ciyue might be due to some ups and downs he encountered in his childhood, but the fact is that he had a happy childhood.

His appearance makes him infinitely favored by the people around him. He is born with a lack of emotion, gets excited at the sight of blood, and likes to pursue all exciting things.

A natural antisocial personality, the kind that can never be broken away from.

In the past three years, she had suffered a lot under his hands. In the end, Ji Ranyue concluded that there is only one way to deal with crazy criticism, and that is to be more crazy than him.

After listening to Ji Ranyue's narration of everything, King Yin said: "..."

Do all of your Zhou royal family have any serious illnesses?

Thinking of this, King Yin silently took a small step back, subconsciously moving further away from Ji Ranyue.

She witnessed all the little moves of King Yin: "..."

"That's all Ran Yue said. It's already late at night. If King Yin has no other instructions, Ran Yue will leave first."

"Wait a minute, I still have something to do. I want to cooperate with the eldest princess." King Yin quickly calmed down. He did not forget the most important purpose of calling Ji Ranyue.

"What's the matter?" Ji Ranyue frowned, she didn't want to have too much interaction with King Yin anymore.

"I heard that the eldest princess has a close relationship with Xiaowu and I, the crown prince of Yin Kingdom."

She's not, she doesn't.

Ji Ranyue was about to deny it, but she found that the system task panel in her mind changed dramatically at this moment, and a nine-square puzzle panel appeared under side task one.

The bottom middle position of the puzzle has been lit up, revealing a blood-stained dragon chair. The other eight palace grids are still dark with nothing.
