Chapter 468 Not the Real Bei Lianhe
"It seems that the princess does not really have the ability to predict everything. Otherwise, if the princess knew what I was going to say next, she would not dare to treat me in such a sharp attitude." While speaking, Shen Yaosi sat on the chair brought by the servant.
"Shen Yaosi, I know you are always good at being mysterious, but I am a princess of a country. I am different from those losers you have tortured before. Don't think you can make me surrender with just a few words!"
Shen Yaosi pretended not to hear him. He continued, "Ever since I saw the Second Prince's body with my own eyes, there is one thing I can't figure out."
"The Second Prince has never been involved in the throne, and he is kind-hearted. Even though he is in the royal family, he always treats his brothers and sisters as ordinary brothers and sisters. Especially when it comes to the princesses, the Second Prince is very sincere. Princess Lianhe is about the same age as the Second Prince. When she was a child, she accidentally fell into the water. The Second Prince risked his life to protect her and took care of her for seven days before she was finally out of danger."
"What's there to say about these things that everyone knows?" Princess Lianhe interrupted Shen Yaosi impatiently, "If you want to play the emotional card with me, then you don't have to waste your time."
Yi Mobao also looked at Shen Yaosi in confusion.
He had heard of Shen Yaosi's abilities a long time ago.
Shen Yaosi is known as the man who knows how to win people's hearts the best. Many times, just by having a simple conversation with a person, he can find out the other person's deepest secrets through the person's basic situation.
It is also thanks to this ability that Shen Yaosi has been able to remain standing.
Therefore, Shen Yaosi's coming here today definitely wasn't just to reminisce about the past with Princess Lianhe.
His interest was immediately piqued, and Yi Mobao continued to listen.
"The Second Prince and Princess Lianhe have a deep brother-sister relationship. It is rumored that Xijiang needed a hostage to maintain peace between the two countries. At that time, His Majesty planned to send the Second Prince to Xijiang in order not to involve other outstanding princes."
Shen Yaosi took the tea bowl handed over by the servant. "Even the Second Prince accepted his fate at that time. He was even very clear that everyone in Yunzhao Kingdom regarded him as a discarded pawn. Once he was sent to Xijiang Kingdom, the only thing waiting for him was death."
"Just when the Second Prince had given up struggling, Princess Lianhe, who had always been on good terms with him, showed up and said she was willing to go to Xijiang Kingdom as a hostage in place of the Second Prince."
“Haha, I was young and ignorant back then, so I took the initiative to jump into the fire pit.” Princess Lianhe’s eyes were filled with resentment, and she said word by word: “It’s also because I paid so much, so when Bei Jiye rejected me, I had to kill him! I paid so much for him, but he doesn’t deserve it at all!”
"Princess, you are wrong." Shen Yaosi finally raised his eyes and looked at Bei Lianhe. "Before Princess Lianhe was sent to Xijiang Kingdom, she was kidnapped once, and the person who kidnapped the princess was the Second Prince."
Princess Lianhe showed a moment of surprise on her face.
"Is there such a thing?" Yi Mobao felt a little sorry that his mother was not there.
Otherwise, if my mother heard such details, she would definitely be interested.
"I only found out this after asking the Second Prince's confidants. The Second Prince kidnapped the princess so that he could go to Xijiang Kingdom in place of his sister. Both of them knew that going to Xijiang Kingdom as a hostage would most likely lead to death, but even so, they were still willing to sacrifice for each other. Such friendship is enough to prove how close the relationship between the two is."
"Now that things have come to this, why bother talking about the past again." Princess Lianhe's eyes were full of mockery. "No matter how well Bei Jiye did back then, it's all in the past. In the end, I was the one who became a hostage, and he, Bei Jiye, stayed in Yunzhao and lived a carefree life."
"That's true, but it was Princess Lianhe who threatened to kill herself to persuade the Second Prince to leave. This also shows that the friendship between you and the Second Prince is extraordinary. Facts also prove that you were indeed tortured after going to Xijiang Kingdom. You completely lost your rights as a princess, and even your dignity. You spent all day with a group of men..."
“Shut up!” Princess Lianhe’s eyes were filled with hatred. “I went to Xijiang for Yunzhao Country. I was forced to do many things! I sacrificed for my country, but you attacked a weak woman like me. Shen Yaosi, do you still have the nerve to call yourself a gentleman?!”
"Princess, don't panic. I don't intend to use the pain you suffered to attack you. I just don't understand why the princess suffered so much torture in the first year she went to Xijiang Kingdom, and was even tortured to death several times. But one year later, after she fell seriously ill, everything turned around? The people of Xijiang Kingdom have awe of you, and many people in Xijiang Kingdom even regard you as a saint. If my inference is correct, the princess should have stopped suffering inhuman abuse from that time."
"That's naturally because I'm blessed with great fortune and an extraordinary personality, so I can have this blessing." Princess Lianhe said.
Shen Yaosi just smiled meaningfully: "Princess, at this point, you no longer need to hide."
"Wait a minute." Yi Mobao interrupted the conversation between the two. "You mean, the princess suffered inhuman abuse in her first year as a hostage?"
Although he is a child, he is not ignorant.
He had also read many history books and knew very well what kind of treatment a woman would receive if she went to a foreign country and served as a hostage.
Seeing Shen Yaosi nod affirmatively, Yi Mobao took a breath and said, "But... But Princess Lianhe's face shows that she is born to be rich and powerful. She has a noble fate and it is impossible for her to suffer such hardship."
A person's fate is determined from birth.
Just like an emperor is at least born into an imperial family, it is impossible for ordinary people to be born into a good family, and it is impossible for them to encounter things that are not within their destiny in their lifetime.
Judging from Princess Lianhe's current appearance, she had always been high and mighty before she was twenty years old, and it was impossible for her to encounter the hardships that Shen Yaosi mentioned.
“Yes, the current Princess Lianhe is indeed destined to be rich and powerful. But what if the current Princess Lianhe is not the real Bei Lianhe?” Shen Yaosi's voice was slow and steady, like a gust of cold wind blowing on Yi Mobao's body, making him shudder instantly.
Isn’t the woman in front of me the real Princess Lianhe?
There had never been such a guess before. Yi Mobao was surprised at first, but he immediately felt that Shen Yaosi's guess was not groundless.
After all, Princess Lianhe left for Xijiang Kingdom when she was a teenager.
Moreover, it is truly incredible that she, a weak woman, could be regarded as a saint by the people of Xijiang Kingdom and have great respect and love for her.
What's more, her fate is obviously different from that of the real Princess Lianhe!
