Upon hearing this, Ji Mingyue furrowed her brows involuntarily and asked.
"Why is that?"
Wasn't it difficult to investigate Ye Ning just to determine his character and recruit him into the plan to revive the Great Zhou?
"It's because I feel that Ye Ning is not suitable."
Xiao Qianqian replied with her own thoughts.
"Is it because you feel that he is not trustworthy?"
Ji Mingyue asked.
"Of course not. Ye Ning is a talented and virtuous person. There is no one in the world more trustworthy than him. But precisely because of that, he is not suitable to join our plan."
Xiao Qianqian took a deep breath and said firmly.
"Your Majesty, don't you feel that Ye Ning is too rigid, too righteous, too aversive to evil?"
Xiao Qianqian asked, and Ji Mingyue's expression changed as if she understood Xiao Qianqian's meaning a little bit.
"For him, it's not a matter of not being able to bear it, but rather that he fundamentally will not accept this kind of suffering."
Xiao Qianqian said.
"Your Majesty, can't you see it? Ye Ning's personality is tough, but not gentle!"
"He may not be unaware of patience, but he will not choose patience!"
"In this world, there is no one with a broader heart than him. I am worried that if Ye Ning learns about what we're doing, he won't be able to restrain himself and will prove our reputation!"
Hearing this, Ji Mingyue felt uneasy and quickly spoke up.
"How is this possible?"
Her accumulation was not enough yet.
It was not yet time to reveal the truth.
Once exposed, all the effort would have been wasted.
"So, we cannot let Lord Ye join us."
Xiao Qianqian said.
"You're right, he's really not suitable."
Ji Mingyue closed her eyes, agreeing with this point.
At first, she thought that she could become a companion with Ye Ning, but in the end, she had to give up.
This made her feel a little regretful.
But she could fully understand that Xiao Qianqian's proposal was completely right.
"Furthermore, I feel that if Lord Ye does not join us, it may be even more effective for him to take a different path."
Xiao Qianqian had a new perspective.
"What path?"
Ji Mingyue showed a thoughtful expression.
"This world is divided into two sides, black and white. Some people walk through the darkness, while others stand tall in the light."
Xiao Qianqian spoke sincerely.
"In the past, only people like us were hiding in the darkness for the Great Zhou. We tried our best and sacrificed our lives for the Great Zhou."
"But no one knows... They only see us as the Benighted Emperor, Rebellious Officials, or women from the brothel."
"Gradually, they will truly believe that the Great Zhou has been ruined to the core, and there is no righteous person left in the dynasty."
"Your Majesty, this is not good, really not good."
"If there were such a day, where we succeed, but the Great Zhou still remains as the Great Zhou? Are there still righteous officials in this world? I'm afraid there are none left, because they have long lost the land to survive."
"This is not the Great Zhou we want."
"But the existence of Lord Ye is filling a gap on the other side."
"He tells the world that there are still virtuous and righteous officials who are not swayed by poverty, wealth or power... This is not something that the sages have come up with, but it is a real fact."
"He will become a banner, and those who still possess integrity and righteousness will automatically gather around him."
"At that time, whether it is day or night, although it seems like a confrontation, in reality, it is a hundred rivers flowing into one sea."
These words made others awaken.
They caused a great shock to the Empress.
"You're right, the Great Zhou needs someone like him. Ye Ning can awaken the fighting spirit of righteous officials, and he will tell the world that there is someone in the court who does not submit!"
Ji Mingyue spoke in a low voice.
She knelt down, sometimes unable to stand up.
Sometimes, people need more spiritual encouragement.
"The only thing we worry about is that the high price of being a flag-bearer is often sacrifice. Lord Ye stands in the light and will become the target of all rebellious officials, six kingdoms, immortal sects, and ambitious families who will not spare him!"
Xiao Qianqian was a little worried.
"I'm just worried about his safety. If someone really wants to harm him, we..."
Suddenly, Ji Mingyue stood up.
She interrupted Xiao Qianqian's words and spoke with a stern and imposing aura in her beautiful eyes.
"Anyone who touches him, I will kill them!"
