Chapter 138: Birthday Banquet
The secret guards who had been hiding in the shadows to protect Bai Wanrou came to the door of Bai Wanrou's room as soon as they heard Bai Wanrou's shouting, and saw Bai Wanrou running out in a hurry wearing only her underwear, and hurriedly went in to subdue the assassin, and several people blocked Bai Wanrou together to prevent Bai Wanrou from being hurt again.
And Lin Yi and the others also came when they heard the sound, looked at the assassin who was kneeling on the ground and was subdued by the secret guards and others, and then looked at Bai Wanrou, who seemed to be frightened and stood there without saying a word, with a trace of self-reproach in his eyes.
"Princess, it's cold at night." Luzhu also found Bai Wanrou's cloak for the first time to help Bai Wanrou tie it, saving more and more people in the yard for a while, Bai Wanrou was standing there wearing only her underwear, which was somewhat inappropriate.
Bai Wanrou nodded at the intimate green bamboo, and then set her eyes on the assassin who was caught by the secret guard, at this moment her hands were clamped behind her back, and she was forced to kneel on the ground in a very uncomfortable position, with a black cloth covering her face.
Lin Yi walked over and lifted the black cloth on the assassin's face, only to find that the assassin Bai Wanrou was actually an acquaintance - Yueyi.
Bai Wanroujiao was not surprised, but felt that the person who assassinated her was Yueyi, which was already expected by herself.
I guessed almost just now, after all, the assassin this time is a woman, and the only woman she wants to say that she offended is Yueyi who wants to kill her, right?
Yueyi, who was caught, didn't expect Bai Wanrou to be on guard, and asked a little unwillingly, "How did you find me?"
"I guessed that it was very likely to be you when you poisoned the food, not to mention that even the guards around me didn't notice it, so the person who poisoned the palace must be someone who is very familiar with the palace, and only your identity is the most suitable for all the people in the palace, so the person who poisoned it can only be you."
Bai Wanrou's analysis was the Tao, but Yueyi didn't have too many thoughts and feelings about it, but said with a smug face, "So what? At least I have been intimate with Ah Zhi, not to mention that through the incident at that time, Ah Zhi mistakenly thought that the woman who was that night was me, you must hate me very much in your heart, right? After all, I was so close to Ah Zhi before......
Looking at Yueyi who was shouting in front of her, Bai Wanrou only felt that it was a joke, and didn't care much about what she said, but asked Lin Yi to take her to the Grange to work as a coolie, the purpose was to frustrate her spirit, after all, a person like her who loves power must not be able to stand doing rough work under the noses of others, right?
"Bai Wanrou! You can't do this! You can't do that to me!" Yueyi has never been treated like this, and she is very reluctant to do so, even if she was not favored before, she has never been insulted like this, she feels that Bai Wanrou deliberately treated her like this.
No matter how Yueyi howled, Bai Wanrou didn't mean to let her subordinates untie him, she just felt very speechless about the fact that she first designed to poison herself, wanted to kill herself, and then came to assassinate herself in the middle of the night.
Overseas
Chen Ruzhi is confronting the southern realm, fortunately, Chen Ruzhi's martial arts are world-famous, the southern realm is not Chen Ruzhi's opponent, only under Chen Ruzhi's hands, he ran away after less than three moves, Chen Ruzhi saw this and did not let people catch up, but put away his weapons and returned to the camp tent to rest.
"How is the princess now?" Chen Ruzhi, who returned to the camp, immediately asked the people around him about Bai Wanrou's situation in the Jianwang Mansion.
One of the secret guards in the gang who had been sent to protect Bai Wanrou on the side of the Jian'an Palace, suddenly flashed out and explained to Chen Ruzhi the situation on the side of the Jian'an Palace, including the assassination of Bai Wanrou in the middle of the night not long ago.
"Moonlight? How dare she?" After listening to what the secret guard said, Chen Ruzhi had a trace of hatred in his eyes, thinking that Bai Wanrou didn't dare to touch it, and he, a woman, actually attacked Bai Wanrou when he was away.
"Find a time to get rid of her, so that she never appears in front of the princess again." After a series of thoughts, Chen Ruzhi finally looked at the secret guard in front of him and said such a sentence, and the killing intent in his eyes was also clear at a glance.
It was also the first time that the secret guard had seen such an expression on his own prince's face, and it was also for Yueyi, who was very favored by the prince before, but as a subordination
He didn't dare to resist anything, after all, the master's words were to be heard.
"Is there any other movement of the princess recently?" Chen Ruzhi didn't immediately let the secret guard leave, but asked Bai Wanrou about the situation again.
Because he was really worried about Bai Wanrou, he was left alone in the Jian'an Palace, so he placed a lot of secret guards around Bai Wanrou, but despite this, Chen Ruzhi was still very worried about Bai Wanrou's safety, after all, the emperor also intervened in the previous matter, so it was difficult to guarantee whether Bai Wanrou could get out of danger now.
"A few days ago, the princess went to visit the eldest princess of Chaohua, had a conversation with the princess, and left after about a stick of incense." The secret guard carefully recalled Bai Wanrou's recent movements, and informed Chen Ruzhi in 1510.
Chen Ruzhiwenyan nodded at this, and felt that Bai Wanrou was right to do this, because as long as she was good friends with the eldest princess of Chaohua, the emperor would not easily attack Bai Wanrou for a while, not to mention that the eldest princess Zhao Hua was a rich and powerful princess, and she was also the emperor's sister.
"It's okay, let's do the things entrusted to you as soon as possible." After that, Chen Ruzhi sat in his camp tent, poured himself a cup of hot tea and thought about what had happened recently while drinking tea, and the secret guard also saluted Chen Ruzhi, and then quickly left the battalion commander to do what Chen Ruzhi arranged for him.
On the other side, Yueyi was sent to work in the grange by the people under Bai Wanrou's Jian'an Palace, because she was pampered since she was a child, so she had never done such a rough job at all, and she only worked for less than a stick of incense, and Yueyi couldn't stand it.
One by one, he shouted, "Bai Wanrou! You don't have to die well! Yes! I'm getting out of here!"
Although Yueyi shouted loudly, in exchange for only the whip of the leader of the Grange's overseer, because she was afraid of being beaten, so when the other party stood in front of her with a whip, Yueyi also subconsciously closed her mouth, so she had to endure the anger in her heart and continue to work in the Grange.
The person who was sent by Chen Ruzhi to deal with Yueyi didn't do it immediately, but was ready to find a suitable time to deal with her quietly, so that it would not arouse suspicion.
In a blink of an eye, it was the birthday banquet of the eldest princess of Chaohua.
On this day, there were many female dependents from families with more status in the court, as well as those young ladies who were daughters, and the reason why the eldest princess of Chaohua wanted to hold this birthday banquet was to help Chen Ruzhi, so at the beginning of the birthday banquet, she promoted Bai Wanrou in public.
"Princess Jian'an cares about my surname Li Ming, and donated a lot of jewelry to the people and soldiers of Dawn in the frontier, and this princess is also very pleased with this, so this time this princess also wants to make a fundraiser, I don't know what everyone thinks, one is to let the soldiers on the border be fed and clothed, and on the other hand, the people of Dawn in our country will no longer be displaced!"
As the eldest princess Chaohua's words fell, all the ladies present, including Bai Wanrou, saluted him one after another, and echoed in unison, "What the princess said is very true!"
Immediately afterwards, the birthday banquet officially began, and all the people were no longer as restrained as before, but gathered in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing together.
The surrounding rich daughters who came to attend the birthday of the eldest princess of Chaohua couldn't help but look at Bai Wanrou with that strange look after hearing these words, and there were many people there who were talking in groups about Bai Wanrou's appearance in front of the eldest princess of Chaohua.
Bai Wanrou could obviously feel that the people around her were deliberately snubbing themselves after hearing the eldest princess of Chaohua say that fundraising was the first thing she proposed, but Bai Wanrou didn't have much opinion on this.
There weren't so many people coming, chattering, and the surroundings were quiet.
Seeing this, Song Yinhua, who was standing on the side, came over to talk to Bai Wanrou with his maid, and asked Bai Wanrou not to care about the words of those people, feeling that the women around her were very superficial.
"It's okay, I don't really care about it." Bai Wanrou also said that she didn't care about this matter.
But the thing doesn't mean that Bai Wanrou doesn't care, no one will come over to find fault, no, I don't know which female roll heard Bai Wanrou say that she wouldn't let this matter go
When I was in my heart, I came over and said in a weird way:
"Yo, when did this Princess Jian'an also start flattering the eldest princess? Isn't it...... For the money?"
When the people around heard this person say this, they instantly burst into laughter, and the eyes of everyone looking at Bai Wanrou became very annoying, but Bai Wanrou didn't want to open her mouth to refute.
However, Song Yinhua on the side was anxious, thinking that Bai Wanrou was his friend, and he couldn't be wronged like this.
"This mouth of yours is so good at talking, why don't you stutter the eldest princess? You don't look at people, the princess ignores you! As far as you are like a bear, it is estimated that you will post it upside down to the princess, and the princess will not want to pay attention to you!"
The lady was originally instructed by someone, so she came over to make a trip for Bai Wanrou, but she didn't expect that such a No. 1 person would suddenly pop up next to Bai Wanrou, and she said those words that made her angry, and she became angry in an instant.
"You! You are so daring, do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that, believe it or not I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Saying that, the female dependent began to quarrel with Song Yinhua, and Bai Wanrou on the side hurriedly pulled Song Yinhua's sleeve when she saw this, signaling her not to say any more, but at this moment, where would Song Yinhua still think about not continuing to argue with the female dependent, and was bent on using some words to block the female dependent's mouth, so the two quarreled more and more fiercely.
In the end, the people around who watched the excitement also threatened to go to the eldest princess to have an explanation.
