Being looked at so directly by a grown man named Baili Hengtian, Ye Xingyue didn't shy away. She didn't even have a shy expression. She just reminded her, "Prince Baili, how long are you going to stare at my body?"
"I didn't see anything!" Because there were petals all over the water, he only saw the top of her chest and her smooth neck. Her skin was very delicate, and there was even a layer of soft light on her skin. Her whole body was soaked in the water. The bathtub is also full of life and fragrance.
Baili Hengtian quickly looked away, don't look at anything inappropriate.
The others did not leave, but found a place to sit down, with their backs to Ye Xingyue.
Ye Xingyue saw his behavior and said, "Prince Baili, do you want to watch me take a shower?"
"I did not see."
He took a sip of wine and was still very annoyed that the prince had arranged for him to protect Ye Xingyue.
But what can he do? He originally wanted to ask for help from the prince when he returned to the imperial city.
The Baili family and Dong Gong have always supported each other, but now that the prince is threatening him with business matters and asking him to protect Ye Xingyue, he doesn't hesitate to do so.
"Prince Baili is coming here. Why? He didn't know that someone was going to let a snake bite me, so he came here to save the beauty, right?"
Baili Hengtian turned around and met her smart eyes, "It seems that you are not confused, and you also know that someone deliberately let a snake bite you. Did you know that it was a venomous snake? If you are bitten, it is almost impossible to save! As for me, I was entrusted by someone to protect you. Don’t think too much about it.”
"Entrusted by whom?"
"Prince! Don't you know? You even knew that you showed kindness to the prince today, and the prince was indeed tempted by you. That's why he sent me to protect you because he was afraid that you would be in danger."
"I didn't seduce the prince! I don't want Prince Baili to misunderstand me!"
"Haha, I'm afraid no one knows what your Zuo Xiangfu is thinking? Your sister Ye Jingrong is responsible for seducing His Highness the Third, and you probably aspire to be the crown prince!
"Okay, now you have your way. Your Prime Minister's Office is indeed quite powerful. After today's announcement, the Prime Minister Zuo has probably chosen the Third Highness, right? However, the Prime Minister Zuo was afraid of losing the bet, so he arranged for you to marry To the prince! Best of both worlds.
"But I'm afraid he is too optimistic! How can the imperial power be manipulated by you, father and daughter?"
Ye Xingyue, "Is this what you think after watching the excitement today?"
"Otherwise, what should I think?"
"Then, do you know my relationship with the Prime Minister?"
"I know you are Ye Xiaohan's daughter! Ye Xiaohan recognized you today, and from now on you will be the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You will be so prestigious, and you will have endless blessings in the future."
"Really, do you really think so? I thought that Prince Baili returned to the imperial city with the sole intention of overthrowing the Zuo Xiangfu. I will give you a chance now, do you want it?"
"What did you say?"
Baili Hengtian was sober from drinking, and he looked at Ye Xingyue in disbelief.
Ye Xingyue met Baili Hengtian's eyes and said, "We Mingren won't speak secret words. I will have a showdown with Prince Baili."
"I didn't go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be Ye Xiaohan's obedient daughter-in-law, nor did I want to plan for him.
"My mother was killed by him. If the imperial master hadn't told me that I had a strange destiny, he would have strangled his own daughter to death and wouldn't have let me live.
"Even if I survive, but he abandoned me for eighteen years and ignored me, how can this debt be settled? So, I want to avenge my mother.
"It's just that in order to defeat him, we must seize his greatest weakness, or even make him commit a heinous crime that His Majesty will never forgive.
"Otherwise, he is still as stable as a rock in the court. Even if you are Prince Baili, you are wise and brave. With his powerful influence in the court and being the head of hundreds of officials, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything about it in a short time.
he.
"Prince Baili is good at the battlefield, not the intrigues of the court. It is true that the Baili family and the East Palace support each other. If the Zuo Xiangfu is determined to support the Third Highness, the East Palace will also stand with you to deal with the Third Highness.
And the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"But, Prince Baili, how long do you think it will take to overthrow the prime minister's government? Can you wait? Can the soldiers at the border wait? How can we fight this battle if there is a shortage of money?"
