"I like it, but it's all about respect and has nothing to do with love."
"Then do you like jade?"
"Yes, I have agreed with her for the rest of my life."
"If you really want to escape, you'd better give up Jade.
You also know His Majesty's attitude. As long as she is alive, he will not allow you to marry Feicui.
So...if you really want to be together, the only way is for you to elope with Jade and leave the country.
But is this really good for Jade?
She is straightforward and innocent, and has been well protected by this country since she was a child.
If she leaves the country of daughters, can she really be happy?
Not to mention that she is the princess of the daughter country, based on her appearance and elf status, I am afraid that she will be targeted by the elf hunters as soon as she leaves this country.
And you, could you really protect her then?"
"I……"
"Your parents will not allow you to be with her. After all, in their eyes, a Jade who has lost her status as a princess is just a slave with a high value.
And once your parents don't support it, it means you have no soldiers to use.
Have you ever thought about what she will experience by then?"
"..."
Bai Yi fell silent, because he really couldn't answer these words.
Seeing this, the woman said nothing more, just took out a piece of paper from her arms and put it on the table aside.
"This is the map. At twelve o'clock tonight, just go to the marked place and someone will pick you up and leave.
I have only one request, once you decide to leave, never come back again.
This is good for you and Jade."
After that, he opened the door and left, quickly disappearing.
——
Bai Yi picked up the piece of paper and found that it was a map of Lu Ji's palace. There was a line marked on the map that led directly to the back door of the garden.
The man meant to leave through the small door, and someone would pick him up and drop him off.
It's just... who dares to be so bold and let him go? Aren't you afraid of offending Lu Ji?
Bai Yi was confused and decided to find someone to ask.
Fortunately, as soon as I opened the door, a servant carrying water passed by.
"Hey, girl." Bai Yi called her.
"My lord, please tell me."
"Um, did you see the woman walking in that direction just now?"
"Yes."
"who is she?"
"She is the Queen. She lives just outside the palace. I must be here to see Your Majesty."
"visit?"
"Yes, after all, Your Majesty hasn't looked for you for a long time... Oh, sorry, I, I just heard about it."
——
Things are already very clear at this point.
That woman is the queen, the mother of the daughter country, and the official wife of Green Princess.
Since she is the head wife, it is inevitable that she will be jealous.
No, because Lu Ji had been looking for her for a long time, so she couldn't bear it anymore and came to visit her.
The purpose is also very simple.
That is to send this "vixen" away and completely stop thinking about Midori.
No wonder she wants to leave the Daughter Country forever. It turns out there is another reason.
Of course, his worries about Lu Mao should also be true.
After all, she is Lu Mao's biological mother, so she will inevitably consider her daughter's future.
——
In fact, the queen can find a way to directly match Bai and Lu Mao.
It's like asking two people to cook rice.
As a result, Lu Ji could only hold her nose and recognize it.
But the queen was still worried after all, fearing that even after the rice was cooked, Lu Ji would not give up.
After thinking about it, it is safer to take away the white one, which is good for everyone.
——
The queen's action completely resolved Bai Yi's current predicament.
However, Bai Yi was somewhat skeptical about the mother of the country whom he met for the first time.
Is this person really trustworthy?
Will she choose to avoid future troubles forever?
After all, compared to letting yourself go, killing yourself seems to be a good choice.
As long as she, the vixen, is dead, the queen will be completely at ease and no longer has to worry.
——
Bai Yi thought carefully and quickly shook his head.
Probably not. As the mother of a country, the queen's belly probably won't be so small.
Furthermore, he is Midori Ji's savior.
If he died on an empty island, it would be a complete disgrace if word got out that the daughter country was not insane.
——
To sum up, Bai Yi did not think that the queen would harm him, so he decided to leave tonight as she said.
In anticipation, it was getting dark and soon it was time to eat.
Logically speaking, Luna would bring him dinner.
But today is a little different, because the visitor is Lu Ji, and she also brought two maids.
The two maids walked into the room carrying trays filled with delicious food, under Bai Yi's stunned gaze.
Soon, there were seven or eight exquisite dishes on the table, plus several bottles of good wine.
The maid left her things and left.
Bai Yize looked at Lu Ji in confusion and asked:
"Your Majesty, this is..."
"I haven't seen you for a few days. I was wrong to force you earlier. I came here this time to apologize. Can you accept it?"
"Of course, in the final analysis, it was my fault that I said something I shouldn't have said, and those words were not sincere, so please don't take it seriously."
"As long as you're not angry."
As he said that, he made an invitation gesture and the two of them sat across the table.
"Are you still unwilling?"
Lu Ji said, looking at Bai Yi expectantly.
"I, I respect His Majesty very much, but when it comes to feelings... I really can't force it."
"All right……"
She just sighed, and then picked up the wine bottle.
"Drink?"
"Won't."
So he just poured himself a cup and drank it all in one gulp:
"Then don't talk about those unhappy things and talk about something else."
"What to talk about?"
"Just talk about anything, don't be nervous, just treat it as a casual chat between friends. You can ask about things you are interested in."
"All right……"
It was the last time we met anyway, so I might as well take this opportunity to ask Shiratori.
"You had a goddaughter before, who was a human warrior, but as far as I know... isn't this daughter's country particularly exclusive of human races? Why can you accept her as your goddaughter?"
"White Bird? That was a long time ago."
"If it's not convenient, just say no need to force it."
"It's nothing inconvenient. It's not a secret anyway."
With that said, he began to tell about himself and Bai Niao.
In fact, in the final analysis, the reason why I accepted Bai Niao as my goddaughter was just out of anger.
Because at that time, Lu Ji wanted to build a new palace, but the ministers rejected it on the grounds that it was a waste of money and people.
Lu Ji was very angry. She couldn't stand the ministers at that time, so she deliberately adopted Bai Niao as her goddaughter, just to disgust them.
——
"Just...just to be angry?" Bai Yi asked.
"At least 80% right."
"What's the remaining 20%?"
"The child was so pitiful at that time that even I couldn't stand it, so... I regarded her as a good deed every day and recognized her."
