"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple..." Shui Ningyan mused, and said in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" Baili Qingdai asked curiously.

"Princess, listen to me first."

Seeing that Baili Qingdai nodded seriously, Shui Ningyan looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she leaned forward and whispered: "I got accurate information that the Fourth Prince is secretly planning to rebel. The emperor fell ill a few days ago. It is because he joined forces with the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital to prescribe medicine to the emperor."

Baili Qingdai heard the words, before Shui Ningyan finished, she questioned loudly: "This is impossible, how could my fourth brother do such a thing..."

Before he finished speaking, Shui Ningyan covered his mouth forcefully.

Baili Qingdai opened her eyes wide, looking at Shui Ningyan in surprise.

Shui Ningyan shook her head eagerly at Baili Qingdai, then used her other hand to make a gesture of closing her mouth, seeing Baili Qingdai nod, she put down her hand.

"Princess, servant girl just heard a voice in the hall, do you have any orders?"

Suddenly a court lady appeared from nowhere, hurried into the palace, bowed her head respectfully to Baili Qingdai and asked.

"It's okay, you can step back." Baili Qingdai looked at Shui Ningyan, and waved her to go down.

"Yes." Seemingly looking at Baili Qingdai and Shui Ningyan suspiciously, the maid slowly backed out.

Shui Ningyan watched the maid slowly exit the palace, a sneer flashed in her eyes, "Princess, this maid looks unfamiliar."

It seems to be inadvertent, Shui Ningyan said.

Baili Qingdai didn't have the time to discuss this with Shui Ningyan at the moment, she nodded casually and said, "This is the person Eunuch Li brought to watch me."

After a while, he continued, "What did you mean by that just now?"

Shui Ningyan looked at Baili Qingdai with a trace of pity in her eyes, "Princess, can't you see that this girl is not here to look at you at all, her mission is probably to monitor whether you have been with anyone , heard something."

Baili Qingdai frowned, turned her head to look at Shui Ningyan with a hint of doubt in her eyes, she lowered her head quietly thinking about something.

After a while, he raised his head and asked softly, "What does this person have to do with Fourth Brother?"

Baili Qingdai is a smart person. She saw the abnormality of the emperor a few days ago. Since the emperor fell ill, she hadn't seen him for a long time. Now it's just Eunuch Li who is next to the emperor to let her think about it behind closed doors. There is no imperial decree. It is indeed somewhat abnormal.

"Fourth brother drugged the father to...take the throne?" Baili Qingdai's voice was getting weaker and weaker, and only she knew what she said in the last two words.

With a thousand turns in his heart, there was a trace of heaviness in his eyes looking at Shui Ningyan.

Seeing Shui Ningyan nodded firmly, Baili Qingdai suddenly believed her words.

He raised his head to meet Shui Ningyan's eyes, his gaze was firm and trusting, but hidden in his eyes was desperate despair.

"Ningyan, I trust you, I hope you don't lie to me."

Shui Ningyan nodded, feeling touched by Baili Qingdai's inexplicable trust in her heart. After all, Baili Yuxi was her brother and sister who had played with her since she was a child. If she didn't believe that she chose to believe in Baili Yuxi, she would Not to blame her.
