My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 52 - 35: The Daughter of the Grand Commandant Falls Into the Water
Look at her, this spoiled yet straightforward, silly and naive princess!
Alas, Yun Wanye shook his head, sighed helplessly, fortunately it was him standing in front of her, if it were someone else, she’d be cursed as vicious all over the capital by tomorrow.
As my sister would say, ’She’s simply the ultimate villainess side character, sacrificing herself to highlight the heroine.’
"No, I’m not protecting her, nor will I expose the Princess."
"Then are you stopping me?"
Yun Wanye explained again, "I’ve said it already, I’m saving the Princess, I’m protecting the Princess, it’s just that she doesn’t believe it herself."
"Hmph!"
Mo Zhaozhao snorted coldly, "Is taking me hostage here protection? When I’m doing something bad, covering for me is protection, got it?"
Yun Wanye: "..."
Not easy, huh, the Little Princess even knows it’s a bad thing herself.
He smiled subtly, gently guiding Mo Zhaozhao.
"Su Qianxue is the daughter of the Grand Commandant. If the Princess pushes her into the water, will Lord Grand Commandant spare you? Will his allies pass up this chance to challenge the Emperor?"
"I could just insist it wasn’t intentional, what could they do to me? At most, make an apology, and I can just continue to flaunt my power."
Mo Zhaozhao snorted again, completely unworried.
Yun Wanye: "..."
So this is what my sister termed the original plot, then?
But this isn’t the original plot anymore; Su Qianxue is no longer the villainess side character, she’s now the heroine.
"Has the Princess considered, what if your plan fails and Su Qianxue pushes you into the lake instead?"
"She wouldn’t dare!"
She’s Princess Hua Yang, how could a mere daughter from the Grand Commandant Mansion dare to lay hands on her?
Mo Zhaozhao couldn’t believe any noble lady would dare to make a move against her. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"Heh～"
Yun Wanye chuckled coldly. If it were the noble ladies of this world, indeed they wouldn’t dare, but Su Qianxue isn’t a native noble lady of this world, she’s the heroine, my sister confirmed she indeed has the guts.
"The Princess can insist it wasn’t intentional, so why couldn’t Su Qianxue?"
"Even if she pushes the Princess into the water, it would be because the Princess approached her voluntarily. If she publicly discloses the Princess’s evil act, revealing to everyone that the Princess tried to push her into the lake to kill her, and in her struggle unintentionally pushed the Princess down, as self-defense. What can the Princess do to her?"
"Her lotus-like tongue and eloquence, surely the Princess has experienced it, can the Princess outtalk her?"
"Besides, she may spin black and white truths together, portraying the Princess as bringing it upon herself, deserving and beyond redemption. By then, the Princess’s reputation would be ruined, and even falling into the water would only make people applaud, with no one feeling pity."
"Don’t forget, she is the daughter of the Grand Commandant, though not as noble as the Princess, she is still an esteemed lady of high officials. The Grand Commandant oversees the highest military authority of the Court, rivaling the Prime Minister, his allies spread throughout the Court and beyond, even the Emperor must show him respect. Can you gain any advantage over him?"
"If Su Qianxue really counters by pushing you into the lake, you’d truly suffer a loss."
In Da Wu Country, Lord Grand Commandant, believing himself to be part of the pure stream, is actually the biggest faction leader.
This speech left Mo Zhaozhao terrified, anxiety started to build in her heart, yet she was still stubborn and unwilling to admit the possibility Yun Wanye mentioned.
"From the way you speak, it seems like Su Qianxue already knows my plan, Yun Wanye, don’t think you’re the smartest, you keep talking as if you’re protecting her."
Yun Wanye had a severe headache, "If I can know your plan, how can you ensure she doesn’t know?"
"Are you saying I’m the dumbest, then?"
"Not exactly..."
After all, in the original plot, the plan worked, it should’ve been the original Su Qianxue being the dumbest, but now this Su Qianxue holds the script.
How could the Little Princess compete with her?
"Come over here."
Yun Wanye walked to the dark window of the pavilion, beckoning to her.
"What for!"
Mo Zhaozhao pursed her lips, her feet unmoving, her mind was in a mess at the moment, all filled with the possibility Yun Wanye had described.
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed; judging from Su Qianxue’s current demeanor, if she could learn of her plan in advance, she probably would dare to counter by pushing her down, letting her taste her own medicine.
But the question is, how could Su Qianxue know her plan ahead of time?
And how did Yun Wanye learn of it?
The more she thought, the more terrifying it became, Mo Zhaozhao felt a chill crawling up her back, making her shiver.
"Come over first, I’ll show you something interesting."
Yun Wanye’s voice rang again, seemingly carrying some irresistible magic, causing Mo Zhaozhao’s legs to move involuntarily towards him.
