There are gaps in the road

Chapter 196 Harvest
Silence is the water pavilion at this time.

When the wind blows through the promenade, the rippling water waves seem to be someone's mood at the moment.

"What a naive girl!" Ye Chuxiao thought in his heart facing the silent eldest princess.

If he is a skilled and seasoned politician, at this time there may be a little bit of truth sandwiched between lies, and he opens his mouth, hiding the truth in clouds and mist, so that people can't see it clearly.

Even Ye Chuxiao can only rely on experience and field control ability to try to pick out a small amount of useful information from a pile of garbage.

But the eldest princess' silence is already the best answer.

If her biological father was really only the first emperor, then why should she remain silent?
Her passive silence and refusal to answer had already given the best answer.

"Thank you! I understand!" Ye Chuxiao nodded to the eldest princess, still saying cruelly.

He knew that if he continued, it would make the girl's mood even more chaotic.

However, this is his position, pity and pity...doesn't belong to Ye Chuxiao.

An unknown opponent is lurking in the dark, which not only makes Ye Chuxiao feel dangerous, but also makes him a little bit irritated.

"No, that's not the case!" The eldest princess blurted out, but then her cheeks turned red.

She is not good at lying, but she is very good at blushing.

"Yes, I understand! I understand!" Ye Chuxiao nodded, but his face was filled with the expression of disbelief despite your explanation.

The eldest princess hesitated for a while in silence, and then said a little dullly: "He has been gone for many years, why are you still looking for him? I beg you, don't reveal his identity, okay? What do you want, as long as I If you have anything, I can give it to you.”

This is full of words, not rational.

Usually, those who say such things are either liars who are full of trains, or people who are really simple and pure to a certain extent.

Of course, generally speaking, the former is more.

Ye Chuxiao stared intently at the eldest princess, wanting to see any signs of deliberate misleading.

But with Ye Chuxiao's realm and his control of the domain, the subtle changes in the other party's breathing, heartbeat, and facial expressions that he perceived were all in line with the princess's mood swings at this time.

She is really in a hurry.

And he tried his best to prevent Ye Chuxiao from revealing the "true identity" of the late emperor.

There are information errors and version gaps between Ye Chuxiao and her, as if one has entered the interstellar age and the other is still in the stone age.

If it's all acting skills, then Ye Chuxiao is willing to bow down.

"Will it be her?"

"The coordinates Xiao Chi left for himself is a chess piece that he doesn't know." Ye Chuxiao thought to himself.

But he said casually: "Since you don't want your father to be ruined, you must be sincere."

As he said that, Ye Chuxiao planned to take advantage of the situation and ask the other party to explain all the information he knew about Xiao Chi, so as to combine his daily life and make a more complete simulation to construct an image of Xiao Chi, and then use it as a starting point to reverse Push the whole plan, setting process and details.

Of course, it was exhausting, but Ye Chuxiao was used to it, so he did his best to prepare as much as possible.

Dao practice, of course, must uphold the spirit of diligence and bravery, but it is also necessary to make more preparations, make more plans, and be prepared.

Headless recklessness and too much calculation, but stagnation and no action are obstacles to climbing to the top.

The eldest princess seemed to have misunderstood Ye Chuxiao's meaning, and she almost turned into a steam princess.

The unknowing, but innate charm is almost fully released.

If it weren't for Ye Chuxiao's firm will, I'm afraid she might not be able to stand it.

Ye Chuxiao moved her body back, trying to keep a polite distance from the eldest princess.

"Such an innocent stunner can still live in this harem without being thrown out as bait by the little emperor and the queen mother, either because there are not enough valuable prey to appear, or she also has a card for protection, And this hole card is probably left by Xiao Chi." Ye Chuxiao thought to himself.

The eldest princess grasped the hem of her clothes, and then blushed, looking at Ye Chuxiao stubbornly, her eyes suddenly turned red, and tears seemed to swirl in her almond eyes, but she still stubbornly refused to fall.

"You... what do you want?"

"I won't let you succeed!"

"You bad fish!" said the eldest princess.

Ye Chuxiao couldn't help knocking a chestnut on the eldest princess's head: "What are you thinking?"

"I'm just curious about your father, and I have a sincere admiration for his legendary life, so I just want to get more specific stories related to him from you."

The eldest princess took a few steps back with her head in her arms, and accidentally bumped into the large vase standing behind her. Although it didn't hurt, the ignorant and flustered appearance made people want to bully her.

"Sister Yu's body, lolita face, child's brain?" Ye Chuxiao summed it up simply.

"Really... that's all?" the eldest princess asked hesitantly and suspiciously, and wrote her distrust on that pretty face.

Ye Chuxiao said: "Of course that's all!"

The eldest princess took a long breath: "Okay...Okay! I can tell you something, but you are not allowed to spread it, and you promised me that you can't reveal his identity, otherwise...No... I will curse you, I will definitely curse you!"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists tightly, expressing his determination.

"Judging by the lifespan and growth of a dragon, she's actually not that big. In terms of conversion, she's equivalent to a ten-year-old girl of the human race..." Involuntarily, her eyes moved down ungentlemanly.

"No! No! No! This is definitely not ten years old, what the hell is ten years old?" Ye Chuxiao decisively broke away from such absurd thoughts.

After making a gesture of please start, Ye Chuxiao went to a chair beside him and sat down as if at his own home, and even poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing Ye Chuxiao drinking tea from her favorite teacup, the eldest princess hesitated to speak, but because of Ye Chuxiao's 'bully' attribute, she chose to swallow her anger.

"Where should I start?" the eldest princess asked cautiously.

Up to now, there has been no screaming, no haphazardly calling the inner guards, no panic, but successfully stabilized the mood of the 'bad fish', the eldest princess is very satisfied with her wit.

Ye Chuxiao said: "Speak from the beginning, from the deepest memory, from the most nostalgic, whatever you want...you can say it."

Perhaps knowing a person from another person's memory will inevitably result in distortion.

But those pasts that are mixed with strong emotions and strong memory points will have a higher degree of truth.

What's more, the eldest princess is still so innocent, her purity, to a certain extent, also ensures that the message sent out can be faithful to the greatest extent.

If it's the Queen Mother, if eight out of ten words are trustworthy, then she is considered conscientious and moral.

"Daddy's hands are warm."

"When I was still in the dragon's egg, I could often feel the temperature of his palm, warm, generous, and full of vitality. He gave me his vitality, forced me to continue my life, and let the dead baby I have successfully survived the death and calamity time and time again."

"So, when I broke out of the shell, I saw that my father was already very old." Speaking of this, the eldest princess was a little sad, but she didn't feel too sorry for herself.

"However, his smile is still very warm, just like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning on a spring day. As long as you stand in the sun, you will feel warm all over your body." At first, the eldest princess was just recalling, and then slowly replaced her emotions , with a look of reminiscence in his eyes.

And Ye Chuxiao didn't interrupt.

Wily and scheming, a century-old layout, decisive and ruthless, daring to think and act... These are Ye Chuxiao's vague impressions of Xiao Chi based on the information he has.

And this impression was more or less disturbed by Jin Buyi, and he would innately feel bad.

But aside from these, Ye Chuxiao actually has no real idea of ​​the real Xiao Chi.

What kind of person he is, what kind of character he has, these are all vague.

The 'Xiao Chi' in the memory of the eldest princess, or his side.

Anyone can have many sides, Xiao Chi is no exception of course.

"When I was young, I was chasing butterflies in the garden. I accidentally trampled the butterfly to death. I cried very sadly. In order to make me happy, my father would not hesitate to spend his energy to bring the butterfly back to life."

"At that time, he was actually very old, very old, but I was ignorant and used such things to consume his vitality."

"Another time I accidentally fell into a hole in the garden. The queen mother wanted to kill all the eunuchs and maids in charge of taking care of me, but my father punished me, thinking that I was ignorant and did not listen to dissuasion. Playing together led to such a result, and later those eunuchs and maids were also transferred to other palaces, and their money was confiscated for three months."

The eldest princess kept talking about it, basically it was just some trivial things, without any specific timeline and logic.

More, it is still expressing a girl's deep nostalgia for her father.

She didn't seem to be in touch with the rumors in the outside world, or she didn't believe them at all.

She didn't believe that her kind, gentle father, who was as warm as the morning light, would use suspended animation to fool the world, and couldn't resist coming to see her cherished daughter.

Ye Chuxiao also listened quietly at the side, and occasionally took out the daily note to look through the content.

In contrast, Xiao Chi's originally blurred and unclear face seemed to gradually become three-dimensional in front of him.

He should have a kind face. He was upright and handsome when he was young, and he is also handsome when he is old. He has a straight and slightly thin body. He likes to wear loose and dark clothes. He treats people very gently and is polite to everyone. Angry, very polite and magnanimous, he never punished anyone for trivial matters, those who offended him for some reason, the first thing he did was to find a reason to excuse the other party.

In the originally cold and indifferent world, he is really like a ray of light.

"Such a person is either treacherous or evil, or he is merciful."

"Combined with other information I have, maybe I can only say that Xiao Chi is... extremely terrifying!" Ye Chuxiao thought in his heart, but he would not tell the eldest princess this thought.

This is a few hours.

The sky gradually dimmed, and the maids in the distance had already brought the eldest princess' dinner.

The Eldest Princess looked curiously at the maids who kept the dinner in the hall without changing their expressions.

After a period of buffering, she no longer had the initial sense of tension and crisis. Instead, she seemed to have become much friendlier to Ye Chuxiao because of her 'heart-to-heart' relationship with Ye Chuxiao.

"One last question for you, has your father mentioned anything about Tang Sutong to you?" Ye Chuxiao asked.

The eldest princess nodded and said, "Daddy said, Mr. Tang is the pillar of the country. Compared to him, he is more important to this country and the world."

"However, I think what Dad said is wrong."

"He is the sun, and Mr. Tang is the moon. The moon's light shines in the stunning night, which is not as dazzling as the sun."

Ye Chuxiao didn't refute or deny, it was unnecessary.

From Xiao Chi's standpoint, there is nothing wrong with listening to these words on a deeper level.

"Okay! This is the end of today's exchange, little princess... I'm leaving!" Ye Chuxiao got up and sorted out the messages that he had recorded casually, and put them all into the storage bracelet.

The eldest princess actually showed a look of reluctance.

In the palace, although she has no worries about food and clothing, she can get almost anything she wants without any effort.

But only freedom and friends are what she lacks.

For various reasons, the queen mother and the little emperor tried to avoid her contact with the outside world.

For Dahengchao, the existence of her eldest princess is extremely low.

"Will you come again?" the eldest princess couldn't help asking.

Ye Chuxiao said: "Why, don't you despise me as a bad fish?"

The eldest princess recalled that incident, and couldn't help but blush again.

After all, her posture at that time was unsightly.

"You...don't come here again, I don't want to see you." The eldest princess said angrily.

Ye Chuxiao said, "I will come to see you again when I have a chance. After all, the story you told is very nice."

The collection of information about Xiao Chi is not enough.

So far, what Ye Chuxiao has collected is all the "disguise" that Xiao Chi put on when he was the first emperor. Ye Chuxiao needs some content that is closer to the core to make the overall image construction more three-dimensional .

"You...don't come here!"

"It's very dangerous to break into the harem. If you get caught, you will be decapitated." The eldest princess seemed to be in danger, but it didn't sound like it.

Ye Chuxiao smiled and did not explain. To him, visiting the palace once was actually similar to his own back garden.

Even after today, the Empress Dowager will definitely arrange people secretly to improve the security level in the palace.

"By the way, although I've heard of it, I still want to ask, what's your name?" Ye Chuxiao asked.

The eldest princess bowed her head and said: "My name is Xiao Muchen. This is the name my mother gave me, but my father calls me Little Tail, because when I first peeled off the eggshell, I still had a tail!"

Ye Chuxiao nodded: "Okay! I remembered the little tail!"

After finishing speaking, Ye Chuxiao left Jiaoxiang Palace, easily passed through layers of obstacles, and left the palace.

In the palace, there are still many points worth exploring.

However, Ye Chuxiao didn't intend to continue to act tonight, she had to give the Queen Mother some time to prepare, so that she could take the initiative to expose more traces.

And tonight, Ye Chuxiao already has a place to go.

That is the dungeon of the Ministry of punishment, the cell where Tang Sutong once lived.
