Dongfang Yi retracted his hand for a second and turned back in shock.
When she saw Bai Liyue appearing behind her at some point, she panicked and pulled her hand away from Bai Liyue's hand.
She clenched the medicine in her hand tightly, and quickly put her hands behind her back, pretending to be calm: "No, it's nothing, Liyue, why are you here?"
Bai Liyue could tell that she was not good at lying, and the panic on her face and hesitant tone had given her away.
When she was defenseless, Bai Liyue grabbed her wrist, spread her hand, took the medicine from her hand, and asked: "Princess, what is this?"
Dongfang Yi was shocked and tried to take back the medicine, but was easily stopped by Bai Liyue.
Her pampered and delicate body is naturally no match for Bai Liyue.
Helpless, she explained in a panic and far-fetched manner: "Liyue, that's just some medicine I bought at the pharmacy, give it back to me!"
Bai Liyue took two steps back, opened the medicine package, smelled it, and smiled lightly.
"This medicine is exactly the same as the poison that the princess was poisoned by. Princess, don't tell me, is this a coincidence?"
Dongfang Yi saw that he could not hide it from Bai Liyue, so he stopped trying to snatch it away.
She lowered her eyelids, took a deep breath, turned her back, and admitted: "Yes, I was the one who poisoned the princess. You go and expose me."
Bai Liyue didn't expect that it was really her.
I didn¡¯t expect that she would admit it so easily.
Looking at Dongfang Yi's back, Bai Liyue asked, "Can I ask why?"
Dongfang Yi closed his eyes and whispered: "Because she came to my house to make a fuss about fake herbal medicines before, which caused my family's reputation to be damaged. I hold a grudge in my heart, so I want her life."
This reason obviously cannot convince Bai Liyue.
Although Bai Liyue didn't know Dongfang Yi very well, she could feel that she was not such a ignorant and petty person.
"Princess, do you have something to hide?"
Dongfang Yi turned around, faced Bai Liyue, and replied neatly: "No, what I said is true. Go tell the second prince that I poisoned the princess, and I am willing to accept it." All punishment.¡±
Bai Liyue looked at Dongfang Yi.
After she was exposed, there was no fear in her eyes. On the contrary, it made people feel a sense of relief.
"Princess, poisoning the princess is a very important matter. You are not the only one who will be punished. Think about it, from now on, how will others evaluate the Dongfang family?"
When Dongfang family was mentioned, Dongfang Yi¡¯s eyes finally revealed a trace of sadness.
Then, she turned her head away, her eyes red with grievance.
"Whatever, I'm too tired. Maybe this is the disaster my family must go through."
Bai Liyue looked at her reddish eyes and straightened her body so that she faced him.
"Princess, poisoning the princess is a capital crime. If you tell the truth, maybe things will turn around."
Dongfang Yi smiled helplessly: "What's so scary about death? It's better to die than live like a zombie, unable to control yourself."
Her helpless and sad smile made Bai Liyue realize that she had many difficulties.
Bai Liyue knew that she was not a bad person.
"Princess, since you are not even afraid of death, why don't you tell me the truth? Maybe I can help you."
"you?"
Dongfang Yi laughed at himself and shook his head helplessly: "No one can help me, this is my fate."
Seeing her desperate look, Bai Liyue guessed: "It's the eldest prince. He treats you badly, right? Did he also instigate you to poison the princess?"
Dongfang Yi glanced at Bai Liyue in surprise, but did not answer or deny.
Although Bai Liyue has never been in the royal family, she can imagine that ordinary aristocratic families value status, let alone the aloof royal family.
Even if Dongfang Yi becomes a princess, her status is just that of an adopted daughter, and she is not even considered an orthodox noble.
In the eyes of outsiders, everyone only thinks that she is a lucky person, and her adopted daughter can fly to the branches and become a princess.
But her status is obviously very embarrassing among the royal family members.
Even if the eldest prince likes her at first, as time goes on and there are more and more voices of ridicule from outside, it is impossible for him not to care.
In addition, Bai Liyue could guess from seeing the scars on Dongfang Yi's body last time that Dongfang Yi was not doing well in the royal family.
At least, it's not as glamorous as the outside world sees it.
Dongfang Yi silently walked to the window of the ward, feeling the cool breeze outside the window.
The breeze is very cool at night in this season.
The cool breeze blew across her face. It was very cold, but she seemed not to feel it.
"Liyue, do you know? If I had a choice, I would definitely not be this princess."
Bai Liyue didn't answer, staring at her lonely back and listening to her story carefully.
¡°When the royal family chose a concubine, the king originally chose my eldest sister. An adopted daughter like me is not qualified at all.
"But my mother feels sorry for my eldest sister. She has long known that the eldest prince has a violent personality and is a perverted devil unknown to everyone.
So, she begged me to make her look like the eldest prince¡¯s deceased wife, and when he came to Dongfang¡¯s house, she would wear his favorite color dress and dance in front of him.
Before the eldest prince, there was a wife whom he loved very much, but she later died of illness. This has always been a heartache for him.
As my mother expected, he chose me and married me without hesitation. "
Having said this, Dongfang Wan lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
¡°I will always remember that on the wedding night, he called someone else¡¯s name.
Not long after marrying into the royal family, he also began to realize that I had no resemblance to his deceased wife.
Slowly, he began to reveal his true colors, and attacked me without any secret, using me as a tool for him to vent his anger.
But what can be done? I can't escape. For the sake of the Dongfang family, I must hold the position of the princess, be respectful to him, and obey his words. "
Dongfang Yi¡¯s statement was very simple, but Bai Liyue almost understood it.
Mrs. Dongfang¡¯s favorite thing is her biological daughter.
For Dongfang Wan, he did not hesitate to push his adopted daughter into a pit of fire.
Dongfang Yi became the victim of her doting daughter.
Bai Liyue looked at Dongfang Yi and asked, "When Mrs. Dongfang asked you to replace Dongfang Wan, why didn't you refuse? This is related to the happiness of your life!"
Dongfang Yi turned around, with tears in his eyes.
¡°My father and mother raised me, and there is nothing I can do to repay them for their upbringing.
¡°Besides, my mother knelt down and begged me for my eldest sister. How could I refuse? "
Bai Liyue lowered her eyes, not knowing what to say.
Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite, let alone the nobles.
