Across two layers of gauze, the Sixth Princess's gaze still fell accurately on Xie Mingxi's face.
The sixth princess was lying on her side, but Xie Mingxi was lying flat at this time. Therefore, what the sixth princess saw was Xie Mingxi's side face.
Xie Mingxi has closed her eyes, breathing long and long, and seems to have fallen asleep. Her long and thick eyelashes cover her eyes quietly. The picture is quiet and beautiful.
The sixth princess watched quietly for a moment, then suddenly opened her mouth: "Mingxi, you're not asleep, why are you pretending to be?"
Xie Mingxi, who was pretending to be asleep, had no choice but to open her eyes, her voice still calm and composed: "I am pretending to sleep, not pretending to sleep. Why don't you, Princess, sleep today?"
The sixth princess told the truth: "This morning was Mrs. Dong's class. I didn't understand and couldn't bear to listen. I slept for half a day. Now I'm not sleepy at all."
Xie Mingxi laughed dumbly, turned sideways, and faced the Sixth Princess from a distance: "Master Dong's teaching is indeed a bit boring. However, he does have real talent and learning."
Dong Hanlin is a serious two-ranked Jinshi. It is hard to say what his character is, but his knowledge is solid and not adulterated at all.
Furthermore, Dong Hanlin was born in the imperial examination, had a profound understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics, and was good at policy analysis. He had been an official for more than ten years and had a lot of experience. These advantages were unmatched by a female husband.
Gu Shanchang has been holding back, precisely because of this.
Otherwise, just based on Dong Hanlin's constant harassment behavior, Chief Gu would have enough reasons to fire him.
"Anyway, I don't want to hear it." The sixth princess rarely showed her willful side.
Xie Mingxi smiled casually and said: "Women study the Four Books and Five Classics in order to understand the truth. There is no need to take part in the imperial examination. Your Royal Highness does not want to learn, and there is no need to force it."
The Sixth Princess looked at Xie Mingxi and asked in a low voice: "Why do you study so hard?"
Xie Mingxi said lightly: "How can your Highness and I be the same?"
"Your Highness was born as a princess of the Tian family. Even if she is ignorant, no one dares to bully her. But I am different! I am the concubine of the Xie family, and I have my aunt and sister, as well as my eldest brother."
"Only by showing off my extraordinary talents, letting everyone see my excellence, and making myself stronger can I be qualified to control my own destiny."
"Otherwise, I will be at the mercy of others. No matter how much I suffer, no one will support me. No matter how much I suffer, no one will pity me."
Therefore, I can only be self-reliant and self-reliant, and I must continue to strive for self-improvement.
…
The Sixth Princess silently recalled the vicissitudes of life and the subtle bitterness in these words.
What kind of experience made Xie Mingxi realize this? Can a ten-year-old girl really have such an almost evil precocious wisdom?
Thinking of her shocking and strange experience, an astonishing idea suddenly flashed through the Sixth Princess's mind.
Once this thought comes to mind, it explodes instantly like a drop of water dropped into a boiling oil pan.
Xie Mingxi showed kindness to her and was wary of the fourth prince...
All your doubts have answers!
The Sixth Princess stared at Xie Mingxi closely and asked abruptly: "Xie Mingxi, what was the relationship between you and the Fourth Emperor Brother?"
Xie Mingxi's expression stiffened for a moment.
The Sixth Princess's gaze suddenly became sharp, like a sharp sword drawn out of its sheath, its sharp edge revealed: "Xie Mingxi, who are you? What secrets are you hiding?"
"You are so wise that you are almost like a demon. You can see into people's hearts. You can control others with the palm of your hand. You have the confidence and indifference beyond ordinary people, as if you have experienced everything in the world!"
"who are you?"
…
who are you?
The usual smile on Xie Mingxi's face faded, finally revealing her condensed true face. The cold light in her eyes was shockingly bright. The ruthlessness on her face looked so cold.
This is the real Xie Mingxi!
The smiling and considerate girl on weekdays is just an illusion she deliberately displays.
She wore a mask and showed off her shrewd face to others. All the teachers were kept in the dark, and no one among the classmates could see her true face.
Until this moment, she finally revealed her sharp thorns.
"His Highness asked me who I am?" A trace of sarcasm appeared on Xie Mingxi's lips: "I would like to ask, who is Your Highness?"
With just two words, the Sixth Princess' complexion suddenly changed, and she suddenly got up and stayed down.
The gauze curtain was lifted with force and then gently dropped.
The beautiful and gloomy face of the Sixth Princess shot out a chilling light: "I am Sheng Anping! I am the Sixth Princess of Daqi!"
Xie Mingxi twitched her lips, got up and settled down without hesitation, not forgetting to put on her shoes: "Of course I know that Your Highness is the Sixth Princess. Why is Your Highness so panicked? Repeatedly emphasize your identity?"
"Could it be that His Highness is hiding some shocking secret and doesn't want anyone to be aware of it?"
The Sixth Princess' heart was filled with turmoil. Her beautiful face was extremely tense, covering up her complicated and chaotic thoughts: "Xie Mingxi! What do you mean by that?"
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a half-smile: "What I mean, Your Highness should know very well. There are only two of us here, why should Your Highness pretend to be stupid?"
…
The two looked at each other.
It was as if at this moment, we could really see each other clearly.
Xie Mingxi is cold-hearted!
Sheng Anping is full of secrets!
The two looked at each other silently, as if there was an invisible competition, waiting to see who could not hold on and show timidity first.
The confrontation lasted for a long time.
Xie Mingxi looked unmoved, not even blinking.
The sixth princess also looked cold and her eyes were as sharp as a sword.
After a long time, the Sixth Princess finally opened her mouth first and broke the suffocating silence: "Xie Mingxi, do you know why I died in my previous life?"
This sentence can be described as very clever.
He not only admitted that his origins were unusual, but also pointed out Xie Mingxi's identity in his return to the first life. The best thing is that it can also solve the doubts in his heart and prepare for early responses.
The Sixth Princess' thoughts are indeed thoughtful.
However, after Xie Mingxi heard this, her expression suddenly changed. She stepped forward and approached the Sixth Princess: "You are not the Sixth Princess. Who are you?"
If the Sixth Princess were reborn again, she would definitely know that in her previous life she had never been admitted to the Lotus Pond Academy with the top score, and she would definitely not ask this question.
Because, in the year when the sixth princess died in her previous life, she was just a weak girl of thirteen years old. She was firmly suppressed by her aunt and sister, and lived a humble and helpless life. It is absolutely impossible to know the cause of the death of the sixth princess in the palace.
No wonder the Sixth Princess always gives herself a strange and strange feeling!
Because this is not the sixth princess at all!
A ghost came from nowhere and took over the body of the Sixth Princess!
Xie Mingxi, who suddenly figured out the truth, felt a surge of anger in her heart. Her bright and sharp eyes were fixed on the face of the Sixth Princess that suddenly changed color, and she continued to approach: "Who are you? Why do you appear in the Sixth Princess' body? The real Sixth Princess
