The eldest princess soaked in the bathtub for more than half an hour, until she felt that the time was almost up, then she got up and dressed.
After spending about three minutes wiping her hair and washing her face, she finally opened the bathroom door and looked at Prince Phoebe, her uncle, who could no longer sit still.
Prince Phoebe's identity is not simple. He was able to break away from the palace turmoil that year. Not only did he not suffer any losses, he became a mainstay of the royal family. It must be said that the uncle of the eldest princess has a skill that is difficult for ordinary people to figure out.
The eldest princess slowly walked out of the bathroom, brushed her hair that stuck to the side of her face, a faint smile appeared on her pretty face that inherited 60% of the queen's appearance, and said: "Uncle, I kept you waiting for a long time."
"It's okay." Prince Phoebe put down the coffee cup, straightened his collar and stood up. He frowned slightly and said, "Hurry me back. Is something going on?"
"It's nothing." The eldest princess ordered someone to bring in a cup of latte, and sat elegantly opposite Prince Phoebe. She wrote lightly, "It's just that I haven't seen the prince for a long time, so I'm a little worried. In addition, my uncle is busy with the things I arranged. I know You've been working hard, so I'll let you come back and rest for a few days."
Prince Phoebe's frown deepened, and there was a hint of surprise in his deep eyes. He smiled implicitly and said: "You are out of touch now. I should handle those things for you."
"I understand." The eldest princess picked up the coffee and took a sip. Her beautiful eyes raised slightly, and she stared at Prince Phoebe with a half-smile. "But if your progress is too fast, uncle, I'm afraid I won't have time to sort things out." ."
Prince Phoebe was shocked. Did this girl really no longer trust herself?
"What do you mean by that?" Prince Phoebe asked hesitantly.
"It's nothing, I just hope that uncle, you can remind me from time to time when you are doing something, so that I don't understand what you are going to do." The eldest princess said with a smile,
The meaning of this statement could not be more obvious,
If that sentence was just a hint at first, then to Prince Phoebe, this sentence is equivalent to a clear statement.
"Princess." Prince Phoebe asked meaningfully, "Are you worried about me?"
As he spoke, he also changed his honorific title,
In fact, as the husband of the queen's sister, he is indeed not as noble as the eldest princess in terms of status. What's more, the eldest princess's good aunt was the queen's political enemy back then. It is a great favor that Prince Phoebe is not implicated. How? Can he be on an equal footing with the eldest princess?
"Do you think I should trust you?" The eldest princess put down her coffee, raised her legs slightly, and stared at Prince Phoebe calmly.
"Just because I informed the shark in advance last time." Prince Phoebe asked with a frown.
"Is it just this one thing?" the eldest princess asked back,
",." Prince Phoebe was tongue-tied,
Staring at the eldest princess with a complicated expression for a long time, he slowly said: "Princess, do you know that your attitude has softened too much since you were kidnapped last time? Your mental outlook makes me very worried. ."
"Is this why you made the decision for me?" the eldest princess asked word for word.
"I'm just worried that our plan won't be completed satisfactorily." Prince Phoebe retorted,
"There is a famous saying in China: explanation is equal to cover-up." The eldest princess said meaningfully,
"What am I hiding?" Prince Phoebe pursed her lips slightly,
"How can I guess your thoughts, Prince Phoebe." The eldest princess said slowly, "Otherwise, my aunt would not have been abandoned by you back then."
snap,
As if he had touched the reverse scale, Prince Phoebe slammed the table, stood up suddenly and said: "Presumptuous."
The eldest princess sat lazily on the sofa, raised her head slightly, and said with a faint smile: "Uncle, you seem to have forgotten where this place is. Except my mother, who has the right to say that I am presumptuous?"
Prince Phoebe's heart twitched slightly, holding back a sigh of resentment, and sat feebly on the sofa, becoming silent.
"You have your purpose, and I also have mine." The eldest princess said, her tone suddenly changed, and she leaned forward slightly, "But uncle, don't think of me as a fool. Last time you urged the shark in my name I can pretend it didn't happen, but remember, there won't be a second time, my tolerance is very limited."
Prince Phoebe twitched the corner of her mouth and said calmly: "Princess, I also hope you understand that without me, how can you fight with the Queen."
When the eldest princess heard this, her smile became stronger. She picked up the coffee again and took a sip. She just stared at Prince Phoebe carefully until Prince Phoebe was looked at and felt a little hairy. The woman poured out the coffee suddenly and threw it on Prince Phoebe's face.
"You..." Prince Phoebe sprang up like a rabbit, glaring and roaring, "You are crazy."
"You go try to flatter someone again." The eldest princess changed to a more comfortable position, directly ignoring Prince Phoebe's anger, and said leisurely, "Uncle, you understand your situation. Without me, you are nothing, right, You are indeed very qualified and well-connected, and you know many royal ministers, but what’s the use? Without me, you will lose your reputation and your reputation. Yes, you can indeed use your cousin as a weapon, but I warn you. , my mother is more ruthless than you think. She was forced by the situation and did not settle the score with you. Now, once you fall into her hands, I can guarantee that you will die miserably. "
"In the palace, no one can help you except me." The eldest princess slowly stood up and looked at Prince Phoebe, "I mean, no one."
Prince Phoebe's body was shaking violently, and he didn't know whether he was frightened or angry.
He did not deny what the eldest princess said, but he also understood that without him, the eldest princess would not be able to make big troubles.
There is no absolute superior-subordinate relationship between them. They are grasshoppers on a rope. They can't do it without anyone. Their cooperation is perfect, but Prince Phoebe makes little moves behind the princess's back, which not only makes her angry. He killed the eldest princess and also caused her to tear apart the superficial relationship.
She wanted Prince Phoebe to know that she would rather tear up the cooperation without telling her.
From a certain point of view, the eldest princess can still continue to accumulate money without Prince Phoebe. It is not that there are no other powerful factions in the palace except him. There are, but they may not be willing to stand by the eldest princess, but Prince Phoebe Without the eldest princess, there would be no spokesperson. To cultivate another one, let alone whether he could find a strong enough woman like the eldest princess. Even if he could, he would not have time.
He is not young anymore, and he does not have the ability to train spokespersons again. What's more, even if he can train them, will he be a tripartite with the princess and the queen?
no,
Not to mention whether he has the ability to deal with the two queens, just because the eldest princess is the legitimate heir, he will have no legitimate reason. When the time comes, who will obey him?
It’s not just China that pays attention to circles and names and words, it’s the same thing in any country.
"Final advice." The eldest princess glanced at Prince Phoebe sternly, "I will continue to cooperate with you, but we are mutually beneficial. Don't treat me as a fool, and don't think that you can hide what you do behind your back from me. , I can’t do it without you. If I don’t have you, I can at most spend more time attracting supporters. I can afford to wait, what about you.”
Prince Phoebe twitched her mouth and said nothing.
Seeing Prince Phoebe in a daze, the eldest princess picked up a clean towel from the coffee table, walked to the man, handed the towel over, and said in a calm tone: "Uncle Phoebe, you watched me grow up, you can say, You know me better than my mother, you know you can't control me, and I never intend to kick you out, so don't anger me again."
Prince Phoebe nodded slightly, with a complicated look on his face,
After saying this, the eldest princess sat down again and said calmly: "How is the plan with the shark going?"
Prince Phoebe is indeed a person who does great things. Even though he was slapped in the face by the eldest princess just now, he quickly returned to normal and said seriously: "Because there was a lot of commotion before, and the shark felt that it was too much. Frequently it will cause global panic, so it is not recommended to continue.”
"He wants to wait for a while." The eldest princess said calmly,
"Well, he said it would be three months at the earliest." Prince Phoebe said,
"He has become timid." The eldest princess said contemptuously, "It seems that Lin Ze left a deep impression on him before."
Prince Phoebe smiled slightly and said nothing.
After a moment of silence, the eldest princess raised her head slightly and asked, "Have you found out his whereabouts?"
"Not yet." Prince Phoebe raised an eyebrow, understanding who the "him" the eldest princess was talking about, and said hesitantly, "I can feel that someone is helping him behind the scenes."
"Really." The eldest princess's eyes lit up and she joked, "Do you think it's possible that his mother is helping him?"
"That's unlikely." Prince Phoebe shook his head and said, "No matter how clear our purpose is, the Queen will not do such a thing. I think it may have something to do with the palace storm that year."
"What you mean is," the eldest princess frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "He may be from China."
"He is from China." Prince Phoebe smiled and nodded.
"So, he really wants to help his mother, just like he did back then." The eldest princess said in a deep voice,
"Maybe, it's just my guess, and it can't be accurate." Prince Phoebe said,
"You can go out first." The eldest princess waved her hand.
Prince Phoebe stood up slowly and left the room,
Just the moment he closed the door, an extremely cold and vicious look flashed across his face, almost crazy,
The eldest princess fell into deep thought and sat on the sofa for half an hour. Then she stood up leisurely and said to herself: "Why are you always avoiding me? If you didn't kill me, how could I kill you?"
With a soft sigh, the eldest princess slowly walked to the window, opened the curtains, glanced at the colorful garden outside the window, and said with a complicated expression: "But if you hide, you'd better hide tightly. If you are discovered by others, you will die sooner or later. of."
