Chapter 381 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (One Hundred and Thirty)

"You know it yourself. The Second Princess is passionate, like the sun, and many young men are interested in her. Although the Lounan tribe is fierce and sturdy, it is also a large tribe in the Ji Kingdom. If the Second Princess hadn't married there, you might be the one being arranged to marry. Why would you come to the Daliang Kingdom?"

Ji Wei retorted, "Isn't it because my father is too weak to suppress the fierce Lounan tribe? It's not enough to crown her king, we also need a marriage alliance. Besides, my second sister is already the Lounan king's wife. If she doesn't marry into the Lounan tribe, how can she marry into Daliang? Could it be that the Lounan king has the ability to marry us two sisters? He's just a tribal leader, not the king of a country."

Wu Lan was sullen. She placed the ruler on the table and stopped pretending to measure Ji Wei. She said in a slightly cold voice, "Third Princess, don't forget that the Second Princess is also your biological sister. You shouldn't belittle her like this. You royal sisters should help each other."

"Oh, she doesn't deserve my respect. I heard that my second sister gave birth to a son prematurely. What premature birth? It was clearly a full-term birth. Ridiculous! Who else could my eldest sister choose besides me to accompany her to Daliang? Would she choose my fourth sister, who just came of age this year? Didn't Ji Mingyue choose me to come along just to let me bear the backlash of the witchcraft? Is she also planning to use her surrogate mother to give birth to a child and let me die in childbirth?"

Ji Wei narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Wu Lan with contempt.

"How dare you, a mere servant like you, meddle in my affairs?"

"I, Wu Lan, am at least a junior envoy of the Wu Clan and take orders directly from the Clan Leader. Your father and brother also treat me with courtesy. You shouldn't be so aggressive."

"This is not Ji Country. I don't want to see you. Go back to Ji Country!"

"Your Highness, Concubine Ji, you're so arrogant. It seems you're not worried that I'll expose you for plotting against the Empress and helping Concubine Xu murder the Imperial Concubine."

"Okay, I want to see who dies first, you or me."

The two people in the hall started arguing and were temporarily deadlocked.

Wu Lan saw that Ji Wei was full of disdain for the second princess and there was no sisterhood at all.

The third princess even casually revealed the royal secrets, so Wu Lan did not try to persuade her any further, lest she reveal more secrets.

The more she knew, the more likely the Third Princess would want to get rid of her.

She calmed down and asked again, "Wu Lan, let me ask you again, do you know where the eldest princess is being held captive?"

Ji Wei's eyes flashed, and she suddenly smiled and said, "I have been in Daliang for so long, I can naturally guess where the imperial sister is imprisoned. But if you want me to tell you, it's very simple. Break this 'live and die together' curse for me."

Wu Lan smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying, "If I hadn't come to Daliang on the king's orders, I would never have thought that the innocent Third Princess of Ji State was actually unfathomable and knew everything about the Ji Kingdom's royal family. Since you know this spell, you should understand that only the caster can unlock it."

Ji Wei didn't believe it. She questioned, "Don't try to deceive me. Do you think I don't know? You are not the king's man, but the old concubine's man! She is the leader of the witch clan, and my father listens to her. I don't believe that the old witch can't break this spell. Unless she can break this spell, I will not tell you her whereabouts."

Wu Lan frowned. She was sure that these things were not something that an insignificant princess like Ji Wei could know. Even the favored second princess didn't know that the old concubine was the leader of the Wu clan. How did Ji Wei know that?

Wu Lan was sure that the eldest princess would not tell the third princess about these things.

Could it be that the Third Princess was pretending all along? She was secretly gathering information.

Or had the Third Princess long been loyal to the State of Liang? The Liang emperor had secretly revealed much about the State of Ji to the Third Princess, sparking her resentment towards the State. Was her current confinement just a show for these Ji State spies?

old witch?

The third princess is so dissatisfied with the clan leader?

But the patriarch has never harmed the third princess!

Wu Lan now doubts whether Ji Wei really knows the whereabouts of the eldest princess. Is she trying to trick her into lifting the curse?

But she really can't lift the contract. Maybe the clan leader can lift it, but the clan leader can't come to Daliang.

"Third Princess, I'm sorry!"

Wu Lan saw that she had stayed for a long time, but the Third Princess refused to listen and refused to tell her the whereabouts of the Eldest Princess.

She acted decisively, hypnotized Ji Wei, asked for the answers she wanted to know, and then left Caiwei Palace.

But Wu Lan still felt heavy in her heart. The third princess had many secrets, and even she couldn't get them out of them after hypnosis. It was conceivable that the third princess was hiding a big secret.

Half an hour later, Ji Wei woke up from the bed.
