These past few days have been the most comfortable and free days that Huai Mo Ran has lived since she came to ancient times. There is no one around her except Hong Pink Bai. Leng Ao comes over occasionally, but he always prepares things for her quietly.
The fresh ingredients left. She knew that her silence that night had hurt this persistent and affectionate man and made him start to escape.
However, if you don't like it, you don't like it. If meeting each other will only make each other speechless, then why meet at all.
Hongfenbai has been living a very happy life these past few days. It begs Huaimoran to bake a rabbit for it every day. Huaimoran, who finally has no trouble with trivial matters, naturally wants to take the opportunity to repay this half-immortal.
However, Huai Moran didn't know that in the past few days when she disappeared from the world, the capital had already exploded. It turned out that someone had spread the news about her divorce out of the Prince's Mansion.
Ye Heng became a joke in the entire capital, and the reason why he divorced his husband because of his infatuation was also talked about by everyone.
When Baili Zhancheng learned the news, he scolded Baili Yeheng and became very interested in the person hidden in his golden house - but this old and cunning man
, but did not express anger at Huai Mo Ran's husband. At that time, Baili Yexuan, who was playing chess with him, had a tendency to take pleasure in others' misfortune.
Baili Yeheng was furious when he returned to the Prince's Mansion and vowed to find this talkative slave and beat him to death with sticks. Moreover, Nangong Xiao's presence did make him realize how dangerous his situation was.
When the Nangong family was harmed, the person who gave the order was none other than the late Emperor Bailixiao. The master of the Nangong family, Nangong Yi, and Bailixiao were praised as good brothers. Later, Nangong Yi helped Bailixiao ascend the throne.
He ascended the throne and became a great general who ruled the country. Unfortunately, he later became addicted to power and played with power. He even sold his official position to make money and murdered many loyal officials of the court, and Leng Ao's father was one of them.
After Bailixiao learned all this, he was greatly disappointed in Nangong Yi. However, because the latter was extremely powerful and had a flawless face, there was not enough evidence to accuse him. In addition, the late emperor valued love and righteousness and could not bear to kill his sworn brother himself.
, then he issued a secret edict and handed the matter over to the original Marshal Sima. Unexpectedly, Marshal Sima actually killed everyone in the Nangong family during the night. If Nangong Xiao had not been hidden in the well, he would not have survived.
Until today.
Baili Zhancheng deliberately asked someone to check on Nangong Xiao, which shows that he was planning to push Baili Yeheng from the position of crown prince while the "sharp-tongued and scheming" First Lady Huai Moran was away.
At the same time, Baili Yexuan seemed to see hope. On the day he got the news, he dispatched all his men to find the whereabouts of Huai Moran. But this time, Baili Zhancheng did not stop him, because Baili Zhancheng also
He is well aware of one truth, that is, Huai Moran is a rare talent. If she cannot be used for himself, he will naturally try his best to get rid of her. But if she can be used for him, he will definitely let her sit on this place in glory.
The position of the third prince's principal concubine.
In addition, Chongzi Villa has been operating strangely recently. Many accounts are not up to date, and the sending and receiving of information from all parties is also much slower. This time, Baili Yeheng is really under attack from both sides. However, he has also found out some things in the past few days.
Things, such as the reason for Nangong Xiao's madness and Tao Yao's death, were not that simple. However, he didn't care about these things in his heart. What he cared about was how long the damn Huai Mo Ran was going to make trouble before he would come back.
On this day, after Baili Yeheng climbed out of the pile of bad debts at Chongzi Villa, he received a piece of news: the situation in northern Xinjiang was worrying and there was an urgent need for military reinforcements. Naturally, he also remembered what Ye Hexiong said before leaving.
After a while, the imperial edict arrived. As expected, when Baili Zhancheng succeeded, the first thing he thought of was Baili Yeheng, who had just made military exploits and had great achievements.
Legend has it that he was invincible in killing enemies, and he was also brave and resourceful. This time, even though he was unwilling to win the battle of Baili, all the ministers wrote to him to support him.
Baili Yeheng rushed to the palace without stopping, and after receiving the imperial edict, his face was not as high-spirited as last time, but showed a bit of hesitation.
Baili Zhancheng looked at Baili Yeheng coldly and said in a cold voice: "Prince, you don't want to go to Northern Xinjiang to guard the country?"
Baili Ye Heng bowed respectfully and clasped his fists and said: "To express my gratitude to my father, of course I hope to go to the front lines to kill the enemy and promote the prestige of our country, but... I want to leave again tomorrow. Tonight, I want to say goodbye to my mother.
.”
"Hmph! How long has it been, and you still care about your girl's affair!" Baili Zhancheng naturally knew that Baili Yeheng was thinking about his beautiful girl, so he couldn't help scolding her.
At this time, Baili Yexuan slowly came out of the queue, and said with an awe-inspiring and upright face: "Father, your ministers see that the emperor is worried about your brother, and I am afraid that he has no intention of going into battle to kill the enemy. Why don't you let your ministers do it this time?"
Lead troops to Northern Xinjiang so that the barbarians in Northern Xinjiang can see how stupid and ignorant they really are!"
Baili Zhancheng looked at Baili Yexuan with admiration, and a flash of regret flashed in his eyes. Unfortunately, the people's desire at this time was for Baili Yeheng, so he could not agree to Baili Yexuan so easily.
And he knew very well that Baili Yexuan was actually a fox. He had been waiting for Baili Yeheng to disappear, so that he would have enough time to find that woman.
"Ye Xuan, your courage is commendable, but after all, you have no combat experience, and the northern Xinjiang army has never been as powerful as the southern Xinjiang army, so it is better to let your imperial brother go." Baili Zhancheng said in a soft voice, with an attitude of speaking.
Compared with Zhan Bei Ye Heng, it is really one day and one place.
Baili Yeheng gritted his teeth tightly, a cold arrogance surged in his narrow eyes. He clenched his fists tightly and glared at Baili Yexuan who was "frustrated" and stepped aside, and raised his head
Gao Gao said firmly: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your father's expectations. It's just that my mother has been unwell recently, and I want to spend more time with my mother before leaving. What's more, the battlefield is so dangerous, and I don't want to give it to myself."
Leave regrets."
Baili Yeheng's words can be said to be based on emotion and reason. After Baili won the battle, it was difficult to say anything. In addition, several ministers were moved by his filial piety and came out to intercede for him.
Li Zhancheng has nothing more to say.
After going to court, Baili Yeheng took the imperial edict and hurried back to the Prince's Mansion. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the Prince's Mansion, he got the bad news: Suxue hanged herself.
Baili Yeheng rushed to Suxue's room without stopping, only to see a piece of paper on the table, with the words: Prince, you are so cruel.
Baili Yeheng looked at the piece of paper and was silent for a long time. Then he walked slowly to the couch. Looking at Suxue who was lying quietly on the couch with a pale face and wide eyes, he couldn't bear it.
Zhu took a step back. After seeing so many dead people and killing so many people, he felt fear for a corpse for the first time.
"Master, what should I do?" At this time, the old housekeeper came into the room and asked cautiously.
Baili Yeheng just stood there stiffly, his face full of gloom, and he was silent for a long time. He said in a cold voice: "Bury her generously."
The old housekeeper nodded slightly. Seeing Baili Yeheng's expression of solemnity, he hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't help but said: "Master, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
Baili Yeheng narrowed his eyes slightly, slowly turned his eyes, looked at the old butler who was full of respect at this time, raised his eyes, slowly turned around and walked towards the door, and said calmly: "If you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it.
"
The old housekeeper thought for a moment, and then cautiously said: "Actually, during the two days you were at Chongzi Villa, Madam has been in a good mood, and she has visited Miss Xiaoxiao many times, but last night... the old slave accidentally saw her
He left Haitang Garden in a panic, and then the old slave saw..." At this point, he licked his tongue, and his face became more and more hesitant.
Baili Yeheng raised his eyebrows and urged in a deep voice: "Don't be hesitant, tell me quickly, what did you see?" At this moment, his heart suddenly became anxious, as if some shocking secret was about to be revealed.
The old housekeeper swallowed his saliva, said yes quickly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "I saw several figures in Miss Xiaoxiao's room, reflected on the window paper...Old slave
I was so frightened that I immediately retreated, but because it was already late at night and I was afraid that the boys were packing their things, I didn't send anyone to inform you of this matter."
At this point, he licked his lips again, his face full of worry. He raised his eyes in panic and glanced at Baili Yeheng, and found that the latter's face was ashen at this time, and his eyes were as cold as snowdrifts. The chill made him unable to stop.
After a moment of trembling, he no longer dared to deceive and said: "Unexpectedly, early this morning, the maids in Madam's courtyard started screaming. When the old slave went over to take a look, he discovered that Madam...she has passed away."
Baili Yeheng clenched his fists slightly and said in a cold voice: "Do you think...these two things are connected?"
The old butler felt Baili Yeheng's icy cold light and couldn't help but feel frightened. He shook his head and answered honestly: "I don't mean that. I just think... I should tell you about this..."
Baili Yeheng stood in front of the door, silent. He thought of the things that had come out of Chuanyun and Qingfeng's mouths in the past few days, and combined them with the old housekeeper's words. No matter how stupid he was, he couldn't
I don’t doubt that this matter has something to do with Nangong Xiao.
But, how can he believe that all of this comes from the woman he has always trusted the most?
At this time, a person hurriedly came to report that Mr. Leng was here.
Before Baili Yeheng could say anything, he saw Leng Ao, dressed in red, striding in. He stood in front of the door, looking sarcastically at Baili Yeheng, who looked unhappy at this time, and said coldly: "I
I have something to tell you."
However, Baili Yeheng turned his body and looked at the woman on the bed. His voice was a bit sad and helpless as he said, "Before that, let me take a look at how Suxue died."
Leng Ao glanced at him coldly and distantly. Seeing his calm face, he couldn't help but sneered. He stood there with his sleeves rolled up and said sarcastically: "Baili Yeheng, it turns out you have always been like this, no matter what others do for you.
Everything is so natural."
Baili Yeheng snorted coldly, turned away, and said coldly: "If you don't want to help me, forget it. Butler, go and send someone to find a doctor. Remember... don't let anyone see you."
The old housekeeper hurriedly responded and went out, but Leng Ao walked in from beside him at this moment. He stood there at a loss. Should he go? Or not?
Baili Yeheng gave him a look, asking him to keep an eye on his surroundings, and then followed Leng Ao to the bed.
Leng Ao looked at Suxue who was dying with her eyes wide open, a touch of sarcasm raised on her lips, and she said in a cold voice: "Did all of your Baili Yeheng women die with resentment?"
