Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 940 Game with him
The busy day ended with Bai Mingwei standing his sword beside his chair.

At this time, Bai Mingwei sat down by the window, poured several glasses of water one after another, and drank them all in big gulps.

The afterglow of the setting sun came in through the window lattice, illuminating her slightly tired face.

She put the cup down and looked out through the window. It was Yuan Wu's yard.

And moving his eyes a little further to the next door, he saw Xiao Chongyuan's yard.

The house she was in at this time happened to be close to the residence of Yuan Wu and Xiao Chongyuan.

On the surface, it not only satisfies the "reception" required by Xiao Chongyuan, but also satisfies the "protection" required by Yuan Wu.

It's simply the perfect location to have both sides.

In fact, she could guess how much Yuan Wu was thinking.

They had a tacit understanding with each other about the current situation.

Yuan Wu has always been taking action to break through the defense line in northern Xinjiang.

If she was instigated to rebel and be used by Yuan Wu, not only would the defense line of Northern Xinjiang be broken, but Dongling's abdomen would also be severely stabbed by her.

If she rebels against Emperor Yuan Zhen, even if she is not used by Yuan Wu, the defense line in Northern Xinjiang will be broken, and the door will be wide open, which will be a good opportunity for Bei Yan to invade south again.

If she is destroyed, then Wei Xiao and Jiang Ci may not be willing to be Dongling's shield anymore.

This is what Yuan Wu has been trying to achieve from beginning to end, and it has never changed.

And what she has been doing is playing games with Yuan Wu to prevent Yuan Wu's plan from succeeding.

She also knew that if Yuan Wu could not instigate her to rebel, or if he could not force her to rebel against Emperor Yuan Zhen, then Yuan Wu would sooner or later make a fuss about Feng Qingchen being Xiao Chongyuan.

Therefore, while dealing with Yuan Wu, this matter was also a hidden secret that she had to guard against.

However, no matter what, Yuan Wu has used Qin Fengye to achieve the first step of the plan - marriage.

So, there will be no new operations in Yuanwu for the time being.

This is her chance, it's time for her to make her move.

What she wants to do is to achieve what she wants to achieve from this matter.

Thinking of this, Bai Ming slightly retracted his gaze and drank the entire pot of tea in a relaxed manner.

Since Qin Fengye brought her into the palace today, she has been running around, so she can take a rest and drink a full pot of tea.

"Another fulfilling day."

Bai Ming sighed slightly and clenched the sword leaning on the chair again.

……

On the first night that Xiao Chongyuan stayed next door to Yuan Wu, everything was calm in the post house.

But a terrible thing happened in Qixia Palace that Bai Mingwei visited.

Princess Lingyi was attacked by a "big rat" and suffered several scratches on her face.

In the evening, after the imperial doctor came to check her pulse and change her dressing, she leaned on the imperial concubine chair to enjoy the coolness, and her confidant Jinxiu escorted the imperial doctor out.

However, Jinxiu didn't return for a long time. She was a little confused. Just when she was thinking of someone to find out what was going on, the palace attendant who was carrying ice cubes to her bedroom suddenly let out a sharp scream.

"what--!"

Princess Lingyi sat up slowly.

Judging from her reaction, she is a relatively stable person.

Even Gong E's screams pierced the sky, but she couldn't change her expression.

The guards patrolling Qixia Palace and the palace residents who were busy with other things had already been attracted by this movement.

She immediately gave the order: "Don't panic."

The calm words instantly stopped the waves caused by this.

She motioned to the waiter waiting beside her: "Go and have a look."

The chamberlain walked cautiously towards the direction where the scream came from, which was the bedroom.

Suddenly, it became clear that it was the princess's spacious bedroom.

He first saw Gong E sitting on the ground with blue lips and pale lips. Then he followed Gong E's frightened gaze and saw another scene he would never forget. "ah--!"

"Dead!"

The palace servants who serve the nobles have all seen a bit of the world.

However, at this moment, the chamberlain couldn't help but scream in terror.

The guards immediately protected Princess Lingyi, and the other guards drew their swords and walked slowly into the dormitory.

However, the scene in front of them almost frightened these hard-blooded men.

"Protect His Highness and leave quickly!"

The leader of the guards roared, and several guards immediately surrounded Princess Lingyi and left.

Princess Lingyi had been holding back her anger because of Bai Mingwei for a long time today.

Faced with this sudden situation, she did not leave. Instead, she waved her sleeves and said, "I want to see what happened to scare you like this!"

After saying that, Princess Lingyi walked into the bedroom regardless of the guards' obstruction.

The first thing that came into view was the frightened palace maid and chamberlain, as well as the guards who looked not so good-looking.

A long, swaying black shadow was cast on the ground. She subconsciously raised her head and saw a terrifying scene.

She said "Ah" and took a step back in fright.

His limbs were unable to control his movements and he almost collapsed to the ground.

But in her boudoir, a rope hung from the beam.

At the lower end of the rope, a disheveled palace maid hung.

Gong'e's neck seemed to have been broken long ago, hanging down on her body.

The slender rope hung her up.

The rope swayed slightly, and the body swayed with it.

The dark shadow cast on the ground swayed back and forth.

What's even more terrifying is that the female corpse's lips were roughly sewn up with needle and thread.

From the perspective of Princess Lingyi, it was vaguely visible that the female corpse was looking at her with eyes wide open.

Such a terrible scene, no wonder it frightened the palace people and frightened the guards.

After the initial fright, Princess Lingyi shouted angrily: "What are you doing here?! Why don't you catch the assassin quickly!"

The guards immediately sent out the signal as if they were awakening from a dream.

In an instant, starting from Qixia Palace, the entire harem was completely boiling.

There have been a lot of accidents recently, and Dongling is already in a sensitive period.

Now it's just a matter of Qixia Palace, so the Jinwu Guards are nervous, so they feel like they are facing a formidable enemy.

The news first reached the Queen Mother, who immediately issued an order: "Bring Ling Yi to the Ai family, and the Ai family will comfort her personally."

"On the Queen's side, if you are worried, tell the Queen that the Aijia will be in charge of everything, so that she can cultivate herself in Fengzao Palace with peace of mind."

"As for the emperor, tell him not to rush to meet with the foreign ministers, but to discuss everything with the Ai family in advance. Lest the foreign ministers seek personal gain and affect the emperor's judgment on the matter."

"Finally, block the news. Don't let this matter cause unrest between the government and the public, and let foreign guests laugh at it. Let the commander of the Jinwu Guards investigate the matter thoroughly. The Ai family wants to see the results."

Order after order.

The old chamberlains, Eunuch Han and Eunuch Mei, who were close confidants in front of the Queen Mother, immediately went to do it.

Soon, the pale Princess Lingyi was brought to the Queen Mother.

When she saw the Empress Dowager, she did not cry out loud, but said hello seriously: "My granddaughter is paying homage to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is worried. It's her granddaughter's fault."

As the saying goes, the Queen Mother feels deeply for her grandchildren.

Seeing Princess Lingyi's lingering fear, she stretched out her hand to Princess Lingyi: "Are you scared? Come to the Royal Grandmother quickly."
