Song Juyao walked in the direction of the Academy of Sciences according to Yun Yang's instructions, but found that the road was much longer than she had imagined. After walking for ten minutes, she did not see the shadow of Cangwu Academy. What surprised Song Juyao even more was that she encountered maids, servants, and patrolling soldiers along the way, and none of them stepped forward to stop her.
The sky was getting gloomier and the wind was getting stronger and stronger. Song Juyao's long hair was rolled up and her skirt was flying. Song Juyao stopped and looked at the sky. Going to Duke Murphy to determine if he is Jiang Baiqi, I always feel a little unwilling...
Thinking like this, Song Juyao gritted his teeth and continued to move forward, hoping that the sky would last for a while, and the rain would not come down so quickly.
The sky didn't go according to people's wishes, and big raindrops fell. Song Juyao didn't care what it would be like to run in the palace, so he raised his skirt and started running.
The rainstorm came down as soon as it came down, without the slightest buffer at all, and soon the world was wet and the rain curtain was thick. The soldiers on patrol retreated to the eaves to take shelter from the rain.
Song Juyao was wet all over. In this case, he was even more unwilling to see Duke Murphy today.
At this time, a car came from behind.
"Who's running wild in the palace?" the driver muttered in surprise.
The king in the back seat opened his eyes and looked at the embarrassed back. A strange feeling emerged, as if something was urging him to stop the car and let her get in. This disgusted him, and he closed his eyes again. He's so uncomfortable right now that he doesn't have time to take care of all those eventful old things.
The car drove past Song Juyao. Song Juyao turned her head, time seemed to slow down for a moment, she saw a profile face, a little blurry, but so similar that her heartbeat suddenly missed a beat.
That's... Archie. That face, she won't admit it wrong!
"Wait, wait..." Song Juyao strode up and chased after him.
"Wait a moment!"
The cabinet elders were watching secretly, wanting to see where Song Juyao was going and what he was going to do, and specifically instructed others not to stop Song Juyao. When they saw the king's car pass by, they were still full of excitement. Sure enough, fate would guide them to meet!
As a result, when I saw the king passing by Song Juyao without any pity, I couldn't help but regret it. What a great opportunity, Your Majesty, you deserve to be single like this!
However, who would have thought that Song Juyao suddenly ran after the car.
?
! ! !
The eyes of several pairs of gossip suddenly came to the monitoring screen, and the internal affairs officer also swept away the depression and stared at it.
"Wait a minute!" Song Juyao shouted.
The driver drove for a while, glanced at the rear-view mirror, and saw that the woman running in the palace seemed to be chasing a car. He was surprised, and glanced at the king, seeing that he closed his eyes and rested. He didn't know if he should tell the king at all. .
Forget it, not everyone who wants to see the king can meet, and this person doesn't know who it is... Thinking about it, the driver drove for a while, and when Song Juyao was still chasing, he couldn't help but whisper.
"Your Majesty... um, there's a lady chasing the car..."
The king opened his eyes, looked into the rearview mirror, and sure enough he saw Song Juyao chasing the car. He frowned, "Keep going."
"Yes."
The driver dared not speak.
Song Juyao was already tired, but the feeling of wanting to see Jiang Baiqi made her grit her teeth, but she was wearing high-heeled shoes, and her steps were a little unsteady because of exhaustion, she finally slapped and fell. .
She sat on the ground and looked at the passing car, very lost. But soon she was happy again, there was nothing to lose, at least she was sure, the real Jiang Baiqi was in the palace, he looked exactly like him in real life, yes, it was a matter of course, every time he Each phase looks the same, unlike other NPCs, even if the soul is the same, each phase will have a different body.
The king looked at the rearview mirror, took a deep breath, and said calmly, "Stop."
He wants to see what she wants to do. Did she want to tell him her grievances and ask for help, or did she feel something and wanted to take this opportunity to climb up.
Song Juyao just took off her high heels and stood up from the ground, and wanted to return to the banquet venue. Since it has been confirmed that Jiang Baiqi is in the palace, this trip has been rewarded, and there is no need to see Duke Murphy. Unexpectedly, she stood up and saw the lights coming from the car. She narrowed her eyes and saw that the car came back.
Carrying her high heels, she watched the car get closer and closer with her heart racing, until it came in front of her.
The rear window slowly slid down, revealing a handsome and dignified face, with long silver hair and silver eyes, staring at her blankly.
Song Juyao was stunned, but did not expect Jiang Baiqi's eyes and hair to be this color in reality. Although the pupil color and hair color are different, the face looks the same, so she quickly accepted this kind of color. Set up, smiled uncontrollably at him.
Jiang Baiqi's sense of existence is already very unusual, and if he looks a little more unusual, it doesn't seem to be anything.
The king frowned, even more displeased. What are you laughing laughing
"You... Are you Duke Murphy?" Song Juyao asked, suppressing his inner joy. In reality, she shouldn't remember Jiang Baiqi, but what should I say, she already has a draft.
The driver in front widened his eyes, but dared not speak. What? How dare this lady chase the car because she knows that His Majesty the King is sitting in the car
Although their king has never appeared in public, basically no public knows what the king looks like, and there is nothing in the photo, but every citizen will have a wonderful feeling when they see the king. They will know that this person The peculiarity of he is the master of this land, a man they must respect.
The king froze for a moment.
Song Juyao didn't have that kind of wonderful feeling at all. I don't know if it was because she was a transmigrator. She was afraid that she would be too abrupt, so she hurriedly continued: "My name is Song Juyao, and Duke Murphy has always been my idol in school. , inspired and encouraged me, I was invited to attend his banquet today, but I have never seen him, so I am so presumptuous... Excuse me, are you Your Excellency the Duke?"
Duke Murphy is also a person who has hardly appeared in public, and the few words about his appearance are also written by the reporter who interviewed him, so she does not know that his appearance is normal.
The king stared at Song Juyao, is she pretending
"Yeah." He replied lightly, "What's the matter?"
Song Juyao's eyes were curled up. In such an embarrassed situation, in this rainy day, her eyes were unusually bright and gentle, "It's nothing, I just want to see you."
She knew that Jiang Baiqi existed in this world, and it was enough to be here. In this cold and dark real world, it seemed that there was a bonfire, which made her no longer fear and know what to do.
She took a step back. "I won't disturb you, Your Excellency."
Seeing that she really had nothing else to say, the king tapped his finger on the window and looked at the driver, who immediately started the car and left.
The king looked at the rearview mirror and found that Song Juyao really turned and left. Carrying high-heeled shoes, she stepped in the rain with her bare feet. Although she had a bruise, it didn't seem to be serious, because the back looked inexplicably excited.
The icy rain fell on her body, but Song Juyao didn't feel cold at all, she was very happy. It turns out that Jiang Baiqi in reality is this kind of character? He clearly knew who she was, but he acted like he didn't know her indifferently, but it was clear that his personality clone was not like this.
Is it a different character
But why is the eye color silver? Innate, or some kind of experiment? It's very beautiful, it's hard to imagine that Jiang Baiqi in reality has no sense of existence in the eyes of others, just like Jiang Baiqi in the virtual world, otherwise how could reporters write about his mediocre appearance? Anyway, whether it is in the virtual world or Jiang Baiqi outside the virtual world, in her eyes, it is the same.
Just as sparkly, as pretty, as cute.
The headlights flashed next to him again.
Song Juyao turned his head and saw that the car came back.
"Get in the car. I'll take you," said the king. He is very comfortable. Song Juyao just saw him, and his mood has changed. Is he so happy? Just because of seeing Duke Murphy? But she didn't even know what Murphy looked like. He wants to see how far she can act.
"Sura Wushen"
Song Juyao blinked, a smile flashed in his eyes, and it really was a person with a different appearance. She didn't care that she was wet, she opened the door and went up.
"Mr. Driver, please turn on the heating."
The driver was surprised and glanced at the king. Seeing that he had no response, he turned on the heating.
Song Juyao looked at the king again and found a blanket next to him, so he said naturally, "Can you bring it to me?"
The driver couldn't help but want to turn his head and look at him. He had been a driver for the king for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen someone who spoke to the king in such a tone! It's so random! And instructing him to do things is too bold!
The king stared at Song Juyao, Song Juyao raised his chin and urged. hurry up.
The king frowned slightly, looking a little unbelievable, but under the staring and urging of Song Juyao's wet cat-like eyes, he still reached out and picked up the blanket unpleasantly and threw it to Song Juyao.
Song Juyao was wrapped in a blanket and heated, which made him feel much more comfortable.
"You look intrepid," the king said coldly.
"Because I think you're not the one who needs me to be afraid." Song Juyao smiled.
"You don't even know who I am, but you look like you know me very well. Are you really ignorant of me, or are you pretending not to know me?"
Song Juyao blinked: "Aren't you Duke Murphy?"
He was bored for a while, and suddenly felt that he was wasting time here, and heard Song Juyao tentatively ask:
"Are you in a bad mood? Is there any trouble at work?"
The king turned his head to look at Song Juyao, and said coldly, "The person destined for the king has appeared, and he hates this person very much."
Song Juyao was stunned for a moment, the destined person? Is there really a destined person? He didn't look like he was joking.
That's it, she thought, clutching her chin, so the king ordered him to solve this matter, and if he didn't solve it, he would look good on him, so that's why he couldn't help her in reality? In recent years, His Majesty the King has become more and more unpredictable in temper, and hates people to undermine judicial justice. Therefore, when she has not reached the condition of 100 million votes, it is not only bad for her to plead for a convicted person, but also possible Self-defeating
Song Juyao thought it was likely to be the case. In this way, it is round, why is she guarding her in the virtual world, but unable to lend a helping hand in the real world.
Song Juyao asked, "If you hate it, why don't you cancel the agreement?"
Legend has it that in ancient times, land owners and human beings made an agreement. Since then, every land owner will meet a destined person, who can feel the emotions and desires, and life is no longer boring.
But it is written later in this paragraph that this agreement can be lifted.
If the destined person really exists, then the cancellation of the contract should also exist.
The corner of the king's mouth showed a little sarcasm, staring at her: "You know a lot. To cancel the contract, you need the consent of the destined person. Do you think she would be willing to give up the right to control a master?"
How could such a greedy human being be willing? How could she give up when she knew that she was the destined person of a landowner who could have everything at will
The king stared at Song Juyao's face, wanting to see her flaws. However, Song Juyao had no flaws, she wondered: "Have you asked her?"
"Hmph, you don't need to ask to know."
Song Juyao thought it was incredible: "How do you know if you don't ask? What if she has someone else she likes? What if she is already married? What if she hates the king too? Why must she be tied to the king? Does she hate being fated like a king?"
The king stared at Song Juyao's face in shock, and felt that she seemed to be really confused and really said these words from the heart.
"Ridiculous," he said after a while. In history, there has never been a king who has rescinded the contract with the destined person. He does not believe that he is the only king who rejects it. If there is no, then the destined person has rejected it.
It seemed that she really didn't know that if she knew that she was the one destined for him, she wouldn't say such words so easily, otherwise she would just dig a hole for herself and make her hypocritical.
"That's why I didn't ask." Song Juyao felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, "It seems that the king is a coward."
The driver nearly hit the brakes, this woman! ! ! What a guts! What do you say in front of the king!
The king turned his head slowly and looked at Song Juyao with terrifying eyes.
However, Song Juyao was not frightened at all. She grabbed the blanket and rubbed it against her head. She buried her whole face in the blanket and couldn't see the king's face at all.
"The king hates the destined person, but he has never agreed to settle the contract with her, but has been silently hating it in his heart? He is afraid that the person who knows he is the destined person is unwilling to cancel it, right?" Song Juyao The voice was muffled in the blanket. Because I already knew in my heart that he was Jiang Baiqi, and I was sure that he would never hurt her, so I did speak with confidence.
this woman!
The king stared at her for a while, not wanting to talk to her anymore, closed his eyes, and raised his hand to rub his temples.
The car stopped in front of the banquet hall, Song Juyao got out of the car and watched the car go away quickly with joy. As soon as he turned around, he saw Yun Yang standing at the door with a stunned look, and the red wine in his hand was almost poured out without realizing it.
"Mr. Yun."
"Just now, in that car..."
"Ah, it's Duke Murphy. If you didn't show me the way, I wouldn't be able to see him, thank you." Song Juyao said with a smile.
Yun Yang's expression became strange, "How do you know he is Duke Murphy?"
Song Juyao wondered: "Isn't it?"
"No, I'm just curious, after all, I didn't see his face clearly."
"He said it." Song Juyao said that Jiang Baiqi's presence was very thin, and it was normal that Yun Yang couldn't remember his face, so it was normal to ask this question. If he can't remember his face, how can he know who he is
"Ah, so that's the case, it seems that it is indeed Your Excellency the Duke. I knew I was going to say hello." Yun Yang smiled and changed the subject: "You're wet, I'll have someone take you to change your clothes. , don't catch a cold."
"thanks."
Yun Yang looked at Song Juyao's back, puzzled and solemn.
…
Duke Murphy did not appear at the banquet, and Song Juyao was sent back to prison.
The time for the press conference is getting closer and closer, and online discussions about whether Song Juyao will choose a retrial or a commutation of his sentence intensified. Major gaming/lottery companies also launched related lottery tickets, and the number of commutation and retrial was almost the same. There are also betting/lottery companies that have launched a lottery on whether Song Juyao will participate in the fourth round. The odds are very high, because no one buys it at all.
Almost everyone thinks that Song Juyao will not participate in the fourth issue. She already has 50 million votes, and she continues to participate. Does she want to get 100 million votes to let the king's review team come out? That is too exaggerated. It is unprecedented to get 50 million votes. No one who is being judged will dare to gamble at this time.
Liang Qiao was very anxious. He was afraid that Song Juyao would not participate in the next issue. He lost all face in the third issue. The script of the fourth issue, I think it is exquisite, will definitely make Song Juyao fall off the altar.
In the end, I never expected that at the end of the third issue, Song Juyao got 50 million votes!
If she doesn't participate in the fourth issue, how can he get a city back
He expected that the major shareholders would send people to coerce and lure Song Juyao to ensure that she would continue to participate in the fourth issue, but he couldn't wait.
On the other side, Su Qing, who was at Huo's house, also received a call.
"Sorry, no one dares to touch Song Juyao now." The person on the other end of the phone said, "I don't dare to feed her this pain, you can do it yourself."
Su Qing was stunned and looked at the phone that was hung up. what happened? She made a few calls before she found out that Song Juyao had actually been to the palace!
In the palace, there lived a person with the highest power who shocked all the powers in this country. No one dared to make small moves when Song Juyao might be noticed by the king. I don't want to risk my life.
Su Qing was reminded by Yuan Manzhi that he found out that Huo Sen had special feelings for Song Juyao and was jealous. He wanted Song Juyao to suffer in prison, but he died before he could act.
After hearing this, Su Qing also broke out in a cold sweat.
After the news spread in the upper class, those involved in Song Juyao's case couldn't sleep at night, and their fingers trembled in panic and fear, for fear that the king's censorship team would break into their home in the next second.
Frightened and frightened, it was finally the day of Song Juyao's press conference.
This is a fixed procedure. In order to demonstrate the extraordinary ceremony of "Justice Trial", Song Juyao, who received 50 million votes, can finally speak in front of reporters and announce to the public that she will choose a court retrial or a commutation of her sentence.
But isn't this yet another ill-intentioned trap
If you choose a court for retrial, how many courts will want to admit that they made a mistake and wronged someone? Choose commutation, the public will think why you choose commutation instead of retrial? You have a guilty conscience, you are not wronged at all, and the public's attitude is related to the court's consideration of her commutation period.
Everyone was curious about what choice Song Juyao would make.
"Quick, quick, the live broadcast of the press conference is about to start!"
"Turn on the TV now!"
"What's the hurry, what's there to see? Song Juyao will choose what you can guess."
"Definitely choose a reduced sentence."
"Bah, I will definitely choose a retrial, she doesn't like Huo Hai's type at all, she can't rape/rape him!"
"Alas... I haven't seen enough of the trial show, it's only three episodes..."
"Don't think about it, Song Juyao won't participate in the fourth issue."
"… "
Reporters from major media filled the venue and looked at the backstage with anticipation. Finally, under the attention of everyone, Song Juyao came out.
"Song Juyao!"
"Come out, come out!"
Click, click, click, flash.
Song Juyao walked to the middle of the stage, followed by the two policewomen.
The members of the Tianhuiliang forum are all paying attention. They clasped their hands and meditated silently.
Feng Linxia and others were also watching at home. They had already made arrangements. As long as Song Juyao made a choice to reduce his sentence, Song Juyao could be released on parole and freed at the most next month.
Song Juyao looked at these people and felt very ironic in his heart.
"My choice is—"
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Song Juyao to say the answer. Is it a commutation, or a court retrial
"—Continue to participate in the fourth issue."
What
The scene was so silent that even the photographer's hands were stunned and forgot to continue shooting.
The audience watching the press conference was also dumbfounded.
