Chapter 362 - Chapter 362With your intelligence and intelligence, you should be clear that if you want to become the princess, the first thing you should do is cultivate a good relationship with Wei Yuanwei, because everyone could tell that the reason why you entered the Duke Palaces was to rush to become the princess". And the first thing you should do was to dispel Wei Yuanwei"s suspicions and make her believe that you were only temporarily staying at the Duke Palaces, and that you should even avoid this duke. Although he was busy with matters of the military camp, it did not mean that he had completely ignored the matters of the mansion"s rear courtyard.
Wei Guanshu, who was in a hurry to get on the throne, used a method that was equivalent to how a concubine would use a concubine in a mansion.
However, someone like Wei Guanshu, who lived in the Prime Minister"s Estate and had experienced great nurturing since he was young, who deeply understood the scenes of people fighting for favors in the backyard, how could he possibly use such a method?
He was just itching to stick to it!
Even if it was Wei Yuanwei, she knew that if he wanted to become the owner of the Duke Palaces, he would need to be able to gain a firm foothold in the Palace. However, even when she knew that Wei Yuanwei was on guard against her and clearly knew of her motives, she still chose to stick to him again and again.
Wei Guanshu had no choice but to arouse his suspicions.
First, make a good relationship with Wei Yuanwei, and let everyone believe that she was only temporarily staying in the Duke Palaces. With regards to the position of an imperial concubine, he did not have the slightest bit of unreasonable thoughts.
All men like obedient, intelligent, and skilled women. It could be said that Wei Guanshu agreed to it, but she chose the most unwise method.
That could only mean that she was anxious to stick close to Yun Xie and had other plans, especially the words "love Yun Xie".
The more Wei Guanshu spoke and displayed, the more he suspected. If it was true love, what kind of misunderstanding was this, why did she keep avoiding it when he came to Mo City?
The contradiction between the two is too big for him to not doubt.
"Since Your Highness knows what I"m thinking, but he still acts as I do just to obtain the information on me, doesn"t that mean that Wei Yuanwei is being pushed further and further away from him? Did His Highness really love her? Otherwise, why would you do this? " Wei Guanshu asked sincerely.
If Mu Jin really loved Wei Yuanwei, he wouldn"t have allowed her to get close to him even by the slightest bit when he clearly knew her goal.
"Because at that time, I was Yun Xie. If I had rejected you too obviously, and displayed too indifferently, wouldn"t this king"s ident.i.ty have been discovered by you long ago? You are as meticulous as a needle, you are also Zhong Lixian"s person, facing you, this duke does not dare to neglect even a single step! " Mu Jin also wanted to keep a distance from Wei Guanshu, but he had to follow Yun Xie"s personality step by step.
How could Wei Guanshu, who had interacted with Yun Xie for more than ten years, not be clear about this? Even if his personality had changed, she still wouldn"t become a completely different person.
Wei Guanshu lowered her head: "So that"s how it is, Your Highness had really sacrificed a lot to not let me find out your true ident.i.ty, what a pity … Wei Yuanwei is still gone! "
"I"m afraid that even the Duke would not have expected Wei Yuanwei to leave him one day, right? Your Highness must be regretting that you did not tell Wei Yuanwei your true ident.i.ty, or else she would not have left! " Wei Guanshu revealed a wry smile.
She thought that her plan was flawless, that everyone would think that she was aiming for the position of the princess, that even the foolish Princess Xi Ya would easily know about her. She thought that she could hide her plan from the heavens and from Mu Jin, but she didn"t expect that she would make such a fatal mistake.
Wasn"t forcing Wei Yuanwei away part of their plan?
Zhong Lixian had no way to bring Wei Yuanwei away from the Evil King"s Mansion, even if she did, Mu Jin would come looking for him, what Zhong Lixian wanted was to be able to find him without him knowing, the kind that Mu Jin would never be able to find.
And this matter only allowed Wei Yuanwei to leave the Duke Palaces on her own, which was why she was the one who directed the matter of the Yuexi Clan afterwards.
It could be said that this matter of the Yuexi Clan could be said as having two birds with one stone. No matter who Mu Jin chose, either her ident.i.ty would be seen through, or she would lose Wei Yuanwei.
This was also forcing Mu Jin to make his own choice, he chose to give up on Wei Yuanwei in the end!
From start to end, Mu Jin"s eyes had been calm, but when Wei Guanshu spoke of Wei Yuanwei, his indifferent and elegant eyes suddenly dimmed.
That"s right, he never thought that Wei Yuanwei"s personality would be so fierce that she wouldn"t even be willing to wait. Or perhaps it was because Yin Sheng"s death had become a catalyst for Wei Yuanwei to leave.
To choose something, he definitely had to lose something. Since he chose to take revenge, then he would naturally lose Wei Yuanwei.
He believed that his loss of Wei Yuanwei was only temporary. He could use five years of time to plan for his revenge, then he would naturally use even more time, and even win Wei Yuanwei back for the rest of his life.
"It"s good for her to leave!" Although Wei Yuanwei was no longer by his side, it was still a good thing for Wei Yuanwei to leave at this time.
This way, if his plan failed, Wei Yuanwei would not be implicated by him.
"Then the Prince has always tolerated me until now, could it be that everything was because of Yun Xie?" Wei Guanshu didn"t believe that Mu Jin would let her off after what she had done right under Mu Jin"s nose.
"Yes, because my life was exchanged with Yun Xie"s life and Yun Xie also died because of me. Although you do not love Yun Xie, it is you that Yun Xie loves, I do not want him to die with grievances!" Mu Jin"s eyes instantly regained its calmness.
As Wei Guanshu listened, she smiled a little miserably. It really was because of Yun Xie, she had truly benefited from Yun Xie"s glory for her entire life.
"But Your Highness, for me to pa.s.s such a big secret to Zhong Lixian, it would be equivalent to asking for your life! Is the prince not angry at all? And now, Wei Yuanwei is bearing this duke"s child! " Wei Guanshu looked at Mu Jin. Even at this time, Mu Jin was still so calm.
She came here to tell Mu Jin about her and Zhong Lixian, but she only wanted Mu Jin to die at Zhong Lixian"s hands.
She did not want the person she had admired for five years to die again like this.
However, she never expected that this man already knew everything about her.
She was prepared to push everything to Zhong Lixian before she came, showing her innocence and pity. This way, Mu Jin might forgive her and even keep her by his side for Yun Xie"s sake.
