Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 448 Inside Story (2)
Ping Ning took a deep breath, and when he realized it, his expression changed drastically. He rolled up his sleeves and rushed up, raising his fist to beat Qiu Yebai.

But Qiu Yebai seemed to have not seen his movements at all, and looked at Baili Lingfeng coldly.

But Baili Lingfeng shouted sharply: "Pingning, step back!"

The veins on Ping Ning's forehead were exposed, and he rushed forward again regardless, but Baili Lingfeng yelled again, "Ping Ning!?"

Ping Ning forcibly suppressed his anger, couldn't help turning his face to look at Baili Lingfeng, and said with red eyes, "Your Highness, that bastard dared to insult you like this...!"

"Pingning, are you planning to stop listening to my master?" Baili Lingfeng finally got a little impatient, and patted the handle of the chair directly, interrupting Pingning's grievances for him.

Looking at Baili Lingfeng, Ping Ning finally gritted his teeth, retracted his fist unwillingly, glared at Qiu Yebai viciously, turned around and took a few steps back out of the pavilion, but did not leave.

Baili Lingfeng was in a panic, took a handkerchief and wiped the water stains on his face, the pain from the burnt place made him frown slightly, and looked at Qiu Yebai solemnly, " Qiu Yebai, you are really bold, to offend the royal family like this is a capital crime."

"That's right, I thought His Highness was used to me being so bold, otherwise how dare I leave that umbrella for His Highness and send a letter to His Highness to seek cooperation." Qiu Yebai looked at Baili Lingfeng and said indifferently.

She didn't have any good feelings for the Queen Mother and the Du family who tried to kill her again and again, not to mention that they were still entangled with the forces of the Palace of Mantras, so naturally she didn't intend to be a knife in their hands, let alone She wanted to really help the Queen Mother and the Du family continue to protect their power, so when the Queen Mother ordered her to find a way to seize the task of defending the capital of Baili Lingfeng, she had already started to plan for the follow-up.

A few days ago, Baili Lingfeng was torn apart by her as a supporter of the fake Du family, and she was forced to reveal her true face of seizing the heir apparent and stand opposite the Du family. When the third and fifth princes were around, Baili Lingfeng Feng will never have a chance to become emperor, so she believes that Baili Lingfeng will be a more reliable partner, she will help him out of trouble, he will help her complete the task, and he will get the military power of the two camps in the north and south of Gyeonggi.

When she was in the Qiu Mansion, she had already planned the follow-up matter, and used an umbrella as a matchmaker to pass on the news in person. After all, Baili Lingfeng is a cautious person, and her identity is too sensitive. This kind of exchange of news, Naturally, it's better to take care of things by yourself.

"This hall has acted in accordance with our agreement, and even lured Little General Du to the South Camp for this reason, causing him an accident, and giving you the opportunity to intervene in the defense of the East and West Camps. Shu Jin did it on her own, not at my behest!" Baili Lingfeng looked at her, frowning and said coldly.

"Our palace has already abandoned Yecheng when we decided to cooperate with you. After all, most of the weapons have been transported to the south by the channel of the Mei family. The palace sent Shu Jin to Yecheng, but because of his status. It's special, it's just a cutscene, so that the people of the Du family think that this hall cares about Ye Cheng in their hearts, and everything in the house is handled properly by this hall, how could it be possible to ruin the layout of you and me for a mere Shu Jin!"

Qiu Yebai heard the words, but didn't say anything immediately, she just raised her eyebrows suddenly: "What do you mean that Shu Jin's status is special, he is also a member of Lafayette?"

Regarding Shu Jin's identity, she did not find out anything after searching for a long time. Everything showed that he was just a frontier soldier who was appreciated by the superiors because of his intelligence. Although she hated Shu Jin, she didn't know Why, she always felt that the demeanor of this person was absolutely impossible to come from an ordinary family.

Baili Lingfeng shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and said calmly: "No, Shu Jin is from the Mei family, he is the second young master of the Mei family, Mei Su's half brother."

Qiu Yebai's eyes widened slightly in an instant, and she said in disbelief: "Shu Jin is Mei Su's half-brother?"

Baili Lingfeng nodded, and continued: "Shu Jin and Mei Su had a feud when they were in the Mei family, Shu Jin was kicked out of the house as the son of a concubine, so he went to serve in the frontier army, and then served in the hall. "

"The hall sees that he has outstanding talent, especially his quick mind, so he promotes him. Of course, the most important point is that since Shu Jin returned to the capital with his highness, Mei Su has been ordering people to follow and monitor him, so no matter what he does , will definitely report back to Mei Su, Mei Su is a member of the Lafayette, and the Lafayette will naturally know that the hall has sent cronies to keep the secret of Yecheng."

Baili Lingfeng paused, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Qiu Yebai coldly: "This hall did not tell Shu Jin the whole truth about our cooperation, everything is just to make this play more realistic, but there is one thing, Shu Jin You disobeyed my order and put all your heart into killing you, did you have a big problem before!"

Qiu Yebai heard the words, lowered his eyes, stretched out his hand and continued to pour himself a cup of tea, and said indifferently: "Even if he has a feud with me, so what, do you want to say that because he has a feud with me, the people under me behave like that?" Died in a tragic and inhuman way, is it also my own fault?"

Baili Lingfeng glanced at the tea she was pouring, moved his body away calmly, and then said quietly: "This hall doesn't mean that."

"Although there are no permanent enemies or friends in Chaotang shopping malls, there are only permanent interests, but cooperation still requires sincerity, Baili Lingfeng, since you and I are sitting here, you don't feel hypocritical if you put on this appearance again Head?" Qiu Yebai noticed his movements and said sarcastically.

"You used a plan to blow up the little general of the Du family. The purpose was not to help me, but because you wanted to destroy the last talent that the younger generation of the Du family could count on. No matter how crazy Shu Jin is, no matter how much he hates me, if It's not that you've done too much 'acting', he dared to use Yecheng's garrison rashly, or you are not 'acting at all?'”

Instead, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone. He was unwilling to hand over the power of defense in Gyeonggi, which was so hard to get, and wanted to use her to get out of the current predicament. It would be best if Shu Jin could finish her off, but if he couldn't, he didn't either. What a loss.

Baili Lingfeng raised his sharp eyes to meet Shang Qiuyebai's clear and cold eyes. After a while, he sighed lightly: "No matter what you think, the matter of stationing troops in Yecheng was not ordered by me. After all, they are old subordinates who have fought with me for many years, if I don't believe them, how can I transfer them to Yecheng in private."

Qiu Yebai looked down at the smoky tea in the cup, as if he could see the pair of immature and loyal smiles that disappeared through the curling smoke.

"Now that Shu Jin is dead, you can say whatever you want, no matter if the end result is that my people died tragically, and I have been loyal to you for many years. The Yecheng garrison, regardless of life and death, has completely disappeared from the world. They didn't even know that their master had already given up on them."
