Who knows, just as Yun Wanyue poked her head out, picked up the curtain hat she had hidden aside, and covered her face, she heard Ye Beilan's voice coming from behind the stone.
"He is indeed here." Ye Beilan's cold voice came.
Yun Wanyue was shocked, Ye Beilan didn't leave! It seemed that she had known for a long time that she was hiding here!
The clouds and mist here are steaming, and the clouds and the moon are hidden in the spring water behind the rocks. People can't see the face clearly, but they only know that there is a person here.
"Rong Ling, where else do you want to escape?" Ye Beilan sneered.
Yun Wanyue knew that Ye Beilan had admitted the wrong person, so she spoke now: "Who is Rongling?"
Yun Wanyue deliberately made her voice a little colder. Although it sounded a bit intentional, no matter what, it was obviously a woman's voice!
"Ah? Your Majesty, this is wrong. This is a girl's voice." Qin Shou was very surprised.
Ye Beilan was also stunned. Unexpectedly, the person hiding behind the stone was not Rongling, but a woman.
But...Roong Ling is the most cunning person. Who knows if this woman's voice was changed intentionally by Roong Ling?
So Ye Beilan asked coldly: "Who are you? Why do you appear here? Come out and speak!"
Yun Wanyue still wanted to fool her: "I just know that there is a hot spring here, which can nourish your body. Come and take a dip. Who are you?"
"Hurry up and stay away!" Yun Wanyue continued.
Facts have proved that Ye Beilan is not so easily fooled. He said coldly: "If you still don't come out, don't blame me for being rude!"
Yun Wanyue knew that no matter what tricks she played under Ye Beilan's eyes, her false identity might be exposed.
It would be better to face Ye Beilan directly as Yuehuang.
Ye Beilan still respects Yuehuang very much, so he shouldn't be too embarrassed.
So Yun Wanyue said: "I can come out, but my clothes are all wet. Can the prince lend me some clothes?"
This voice felt particularly familiar to Ye Beilan, and he almost immediately thought of Yuehuang from Fanhua Tower.
But Ye Beilan thought it was impossible. How could Yuehuang appear here?
"Do you know my prince?" Qin Shou asked after hearing the name of the woman in the pool.
Yun Wanyue chuckled: "It's more than just acquaintance."
Ye Beilan had already taken off his robe at this time and threw it on the stone.
Yun Wanyue took the clothes and wrapped herself tightly. It was quite warm inside the hot spring, but when she came out, the cold wind was biting.
Yun Wanyue walked out slowly.
Her body was still dripping wet.
Ye Beilan saw Yun Wanyue's familiar attire and was sure that the person in front of him was Yue Huang.
"My lord, what a coincidence." Yun Wanyue said generously, as if she didn't feel guilty at all about being caught by Ye Beilan.
Ye Beilan can come here. It is not strange for her to come here as Yuehuang, right?
"Miss Yuehuang?" Even Qin Shou was a little surprised this time.
"Why are you here?" Ye Beilan asked coldly, with a somewhat suspicious look in his eyes.
At this time, Qin Shou, under the instruction of Ye Beilan's eyes, went to the water to check, but there were others hiding.
Yun Wanyue glanced sideways at Qin Shou, knowing what Qin Shou had done, and thought to herself that it looked like Ye Beilan was starting to become suspicious.
He doubted the purpose of his appearance here, and maybe even doubted whether he and Rongling knew each other.
Yun Wanyue said: "I also want to ask, why is the prince here?"
"Answer my question first." Ye Beilan narrowed his eyes and said.
He had long regarded Yuehuang as his subordinate. At this time, he was willing to listen to Yuehuang's explanation, but...if Yuehuang really betrayed him and even had an ulterior motive from the time he approached him, he would definitely not
Will be lenient.
Yun Wanyue said: "I really can't hide it from the prince."
"There is indeed a reason why I came here. I wonder if the prince had ever heard of the disappearance of many boys and girls before?"
"I was among them at that time." Yun Wanyue said truthfully.
According to what Dr. Hu said, there were quite a few families who lost their daughters and sons, and it didn't seem like something special for her to let "Yuehuang" join them.
Ye Beilan's eyes suddenly narrowed: "You mean, you were also kidnapped back then?"
When Yun Wanyue heard the word "ye", she hesitated for a moment, but she didn't think more about it. Ye Beilan probably meant that she was just like everyone else.
Ye Beilan is now responsible for tracking down Rongling, and he should know a lot about what happened back then.
Thinking like this, Yun Wanyue looked at Ye Beilan with a different meaning in her eyes. If she could get Ye Beilan to tell her about what happened that year, she would also know more about it.
So Yun Wanyue said: "Yes, but I don't remember what happened."
Yun Wanyue paused for a moment: "I've been having nightmares lately, and occasionally I think of Wuhu Mountain, so I wanted to come over and see if I could find any clues."
Yun Wanyue smiled bitterly: "You also know that my family no longer exists. No one tells me these things, so I can only investigate by myself."
"I didn't expect to meet the prince here." Yun Wanyue pretended to be innocent and continued.
What she said was half true and half false, and Ye Beilan couldn't tell whether what she said was true or false.
However, looking at the age of the person in front of him, Ye Beilan felt that it was really possible that this Yuehuang... was one of the victims back then.
There were many victims back then!
People were in panic the whole night. If Yuehuang was a young lady from aristocratic family, it is indeed possible that something like this would happen to her.
"Then why did you hide yourself when you saw me?" Ye Beilan asked coldly.
Yun Wanyue pursed her lips: "I didn't know it was the prince. I was trying to remember the past here, and the prince came over in a menacing manner. I thought he was some kind of bad guy, so I hid."
"No, after confirming that it was the prince and Qin Guards, I came out on my own." Yun Wanyue let out a long sigh of relief.
"When I came here, I was still very panicked, worried about encountering any danger." Yun Wanyue added.
Yun Wanyue felt that her explanation was almost complete, and there was no obvious doubt in Ye Beilan's eyes.
Of course...will Beilan continue to doubt her this night?
Yun Wanyue felt that it should be possible.
Ye Beilan is a person with a very deep city, which is difficult for people to see through. There should be no evidence now, so it is difficult to continue questioning. To give her some face, I don't plan to pursue the question.
But secret investigation is definitely indispensable.
But her identity as Yuehuang was pure and innocent. She had no past that could be used as a clue, and she was not afraid of Ye Beilan going to investigate.
