The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Chapter 167 A tacit understanding



Chapter 167 A tacit understanding

Hehe... When two people you thought were the least likely to like each other, actually like each other, how do you feel? Yu Sheng really didn't know what expression she should use to face Situ Yaorao.

Crown Prince Tan Tai Wu Yue was a leading figure in the capital. He was a man of unparalleled talent, both civil and military. He usually looked down upon others and rarely laid eyes on anyone else.

Just like the flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water.

Situ Yaorao was also a top figure in the capital. However, she was the exact opposite of the Crown Prince. Her reputation spread like wildfire, and its stench could spread a thousand miles away.

However, these two people are together.

Thinking of this, Yu Sheng was completely stunned.

"Yusheng? What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's just that my perception has been overturned. Although I think you, Situ, are no ordinary person, but I can't imagine you being with the Crown Prince. After all, the possibility between you two is almost zero."

"I know, but that's exactly why we want to be together. Don't you think it's challenging?"

Situ Yaorao asked excitedly.

"So, is it because you love him, or because you want to prove that you two can be together?"

"Of course it's because I love him. I'm not an idle person. Would I cause trouble for myself?"

"Since you love him, why didn't you agree when he proposed to you that day?" Yu Sheng was a little puzzled.

"If I agree, my mother will probably go crazy. What's going on between him and me is basically impossible. This is true. But we are all gambling, gambling on a miracle. And before I see that miracle, I will definitely not openly have a relationship with him."

Situ Yaorao said lightly.

"kindness?"

"He can't accept a Crown Princess who could die at any moment, and I don't want this to ruin him or the Situ family. So, I will never agree to be with him until my illness is cured. Before that, if we can continue to be together, that would be fine. At least, after I die, he will ensure that my Situ family will be safe for a hundred years."

"Is this a promise?" Yu Sheng asked blankly.

"kindness?"

"There are many miraculous doctors in this world, and even more who can be commanded by the prince. What is it that makes you..."

"Yuehua." Situ Yaorao uttered these two words lightly. Yu Sheng was not surprised to hear this. Because he had made some guesses before. After all, too many people knew about the turmoil in the Situ family back then.

However, no one expected that Miss Situ was really poisoned by the moonlight.

"Have you ever hated someone?" Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaorao and suddenly became curious.

"I hated them, but it was useless. No matter how much I hate the Situ family, my last name is still Situ," Situ Yaorao said calmly. At this moment, she seemed to truly understand why the original owner of this body had been unwilling to face his family for so many years.

She even got into trouble repeatedly. Perhaps it was because she had hatred but couldn't express it? After all, they were her family. The only thing she could do was to destroy herself.

In the end, he died because of this incident.

Perhaps, it is also a relief for her.

"Situ, if one day you don't want to stay in the capital, I can give you the map. Then you just need to leave me a house on the mountain." Yu Sheng said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao couldn't help but burst out laughing: "I will never stay in that kind of place. If my disease can't be cured in the end, I will probably travel all over this beautiful country. At least, to prove that I exist. Only then will my life not be in vain." When Situ Yaorao talked about this, there was a fanatical look in her eyes.

Yu Sheng looked at her and felt that Situ Yaorao was very beautiful. She was so beautiful that it made people intoxicated and admired.

He had seen many women, some talented, some daughters of military families. Some were so captivating that one could never forget them. However, none of them was as irresistible as Situ Yaorao.

Yes, it cannot be ignored.

She seemed to be on par with men. She made people think of her as a confidant, a friend, not just a woman.

"Okay, I have to go first. If I'm any later, I don't know when I will be back. If Lian'er asks me where I'm going, just say I went out to buy something and will be back soon." After saying that, Situ Yaorao left.

Yu Sheng, on the other hand, stared at Situ Yaorao's back for a long moment, lost in thought. Finally, she left the room. The hall was empty. It seemed everyone had left.

Looking at this place, Yu Sheng felt warm in her heart, as if she had settled down. It was just like when she first saw Lan Yi establish Lan Yi Pavilion.

It seemed that he had new hope.

He wanted to see Situ Yaorao happy. Not because he liked her, but... he saw another possibility in her. If a woman like this couldn't find happiness, then how unfair was heaven?

For two people who like each other, there is almost no need to inform each other when they want to meet. Situ Yaorao originally wanted to go to the Prince's Mansion, but somehow, she came to the lake where they first met.

The lake water here is still cold at night, and the reflection of the moonlight makes it look even more mysterious. Situ Yaorao stood by the lake, looking at the scenery in the lake. Her eyes were a little confused.

"Strange, why do you suddenly want to come here?" Situ Yaorao laughed at herself and turned to leave. Unexpectedly, she ran into the man walking towards her.

The man was also stunned when he saw Situ Yaorao.

"you……"

"Why are you here?" Situ Yaorao asked first.

Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue said, "I was feeling a bit bored at night, and suddenly I thought of the place where you and I just met. So, I came here. I didn't expect to see you here."

"Maybe we have telepathy." Situ Yaorao said with a smile.

"Telepathy? Haha, good, good, telepathy. I hope we can stay like this for the rest of our lives. Whenever we want to see each other, we'll appear in front of each other." Tan Tai Wu Yue said, walking in front of Situ Yaorao and saying, "Yaorao."

"How do you know I want to see you?" Situ Yaorao asked back.

"If you didn't want to see me, why would you come here? Just like I want to see you now." Tan Tai Wu Yue's tone was very light. All the fatigue he had felt over the past few days disappeared after seeing Situ Yaorao.

These past few days, the constant pressure from his father, coupled with the sudden disappearance of Luo Mingjing, had been suffocating him. Even the women at the Crown Prince's residence were bickering daily, leaving him with no peace and quiet. Finally, after the commotion at the Crown Prince's residence tonight, he decisively left.

After leaving the Prince's Mansion, he originally wanted to find a restaurant and get drunk all night. But for some reason, he thought of Situ Yaorao, and then he couldn't help but come here.

Back then, seeing Situ Yaorao's defensive look, he'd found it quite amusing. She'd written him so many love letters, yet she didn't even know what he looked like. People are like that. Once curiosity sets in, liking comes. Once liking comes, love follows. And then one can't help but miss someone.

"I heard from the Seventh Prince that you haven't had an easy time these days," Situ Yaorao said calmly, looking at the man. The man chuckled, "It's true. But isn't that what the title of Crown Prince is all about? You have to endure things others can't. You have to understand your father's thoughts. You have to be wary of your brothers. After all, everyone wants to be the Crown Prince, everyone wants to be the Emperor of Lanlin. If others don't become Emperor, they can only be a Prince. But I'll probably die. After all, I'm the Crown Prince."

"You seem really tired." Situ Yaorao said these tiring words expressionlessly, which made Tan Tai Wu Yue feel a little distressed.

"Yes, if possible, I really want to... stop being a prince. At least in this way, I don't have to bear all this, and I don't have to look at other people's faces." Tan Tai Wu Yue said a little depressed.
