Bai Huixian felt it was absurd for a moment when he heard Xiao Guanzi's words. This was clearly a matter in his backyard, but he was almost completely unaware of it. How could he have known that his wife was thinking of taking a concubine for him?

This is really unfair to him! He doesn't even know what Li Xiaoshu looks like now. He always keeps his head down and looks like a quail. He is not a person who is impatient!

No matter how it happened, these were all trivial matters in the harem. However, when the Crown Prince personally intervened, it caused a huge uproar. Bai Huixian had to put all his energy into settling this matter and make sure to satisfy the Crown Princess.

He bent down and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "I am so ashamed. Li Xiaoshu is such a vicious servant. I will deal with her!"

Hurry up and convict her and sell her off. She is such a scourge! What a scourge! When I get back, I must find a useful one to keep by my wife's side. I cannot allow maids like Li Xiaoshu to get close to her again.

The prince glanced at Bai Huixian and said in a calm voice, "Go out."

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Bai Huixian bowed and left the private room in this manner, and finally closed the door respectfully.

He saw the prince holding the chess manual in one hand and the black piece in the other, placing it on the chessboard on the table, his handsome face calm.

He had already worn a crown, with his hair gathered inside the white jade crown. The green brocade robe embroidered with cranes in silver thread gave him a scholarly air.

Bai Huixian had a question that had been buried deep in his heart: such a cold-hearted prince, whose methods in political affairs were so treacherous and terrifying, had failed miserably in love affairs.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Crown Princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are like people at opposite ends of the sky. Wouldn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's unintentional cruelty cut the Crown Princess's soft flesh?

As it was getting dark and the palace gates were about to be locked, He Yue sat in the carriage and returned to the East Palace with Ning Rushong.

Her eyes were gloomy, and she kept hooking Ning Rusong's slender fingers, "I think Su Ling will not give up the idea of ​​promoting Li Xiaoshu as a concubine."

If she intervenes once, she will never intervene a second time. Once is a favor, and if she intervenes again, it might cause resentment.

"I can't interfere anymore. Family affairs are ultimately other people's business. If I interfere, I'll become annoyance!" He Yue sighed and buried her head in Ning Rushong's arms.

"Even if Xia wants to, it depends on whether Bai Huixian is willing to accept it. Bai Huixian is a sensible person." Ning Rusong didn't want to see her upset, so he raised his arms and hugged He Yue in his arms, and said in a gentle tone, "Besides, Yueyue, you are thinking about something."

"You feel that Xia is your most important friend. You get some emotional comfort from her, so you can't bear to see her do bad things, but you are also afraid that you will offend her if you interfere, right?"

He Yue nodded, lowered her head, and responded sullenly, "That's right."

Ning Rusong smiled warmly and held her hand, as if their hearts were connected as well. "But if you think about it carefully, she got more from you, Yueyue. All her good luck comes from you."

"I have no shortage of smart and sensible subordinates. I promoted Bai Huixian because he is useful and because of the relationship between Xia and you. Without you, the couple would have to waste at least another three years."

"Why did Xia's health improve after he met you? It's because Bai Huixian used a secret medicine, and that secret medicine requires a lot of rare medicinal materials. Bai Huixian couldn't get it without my relationship."

"Tear off the surface, Xia came to Yuncheng just to keep you company." Ning Rusong told her that she could rest assured that she had the sovereignty in this relationship. "It doesn't make sense to get so many benefits and still make you sad. Where in the world can there be such a good deal?"

It didn't make Yueyue happy, but instead made her behave in a ridiculous way. Seeing that Yueyue was kind-hearted, she treated it in her normal state.

He Yue quietly stroked Ning Rushong's fingers with her fingertips, raised her head from his arms, and the depression in her heart dissipated a lot.

His words divided the relationship between Xia Suling and her too clearly. It didn't seem like they were good friends, but more like master and servant. Emotions cannot be divided in this way. Once they are divided in this way, it would be boring!

But He Yue felt a little embarrassed about her undisguised preference for Ning Rushong. Ning Rushong was really important to her. Forget it, don't think about other people's family affairs, just take care of your own. Everyone has his or her own fate.

"Chi Jue." He Yue called him.

Ning Rushong responded immediately, and gave He Yue a comforting kiss on the cheek, "Don't worry about those things."

If Xia no longer pleases Yueyue, just change her. There are countless noble ladies in Yuncheng who are willing to be humble and submissive, and they are much better at reading people's faces and pleasing people than Xia.

He Yue changed her posture and knelt in his arms. Ning Rusong held her waist tightly to protect her, while He Yue turned into a kissing monster and kissed him on the face, "Chijue, you are so lovable!"

Actually, that’s not the case. Ning Rushong is feared by everyone and only He Yue likes him.

…………

Guard Zhang, who was acting as a groom, took out the token of the Eastern Palace from his arms, and the soldiers guarding the palace gate immediately let them pass.

The palace maids from the Eastern Palace carried a sedan chair over. He Yue and Ning Rushong got out of the carriage. Ning Rushong helped her get into the sedan chair. There were palace maids in front holding palace lanterns to light up the road ahead.

The atmosphere in the palace tonight is very solemn. The Imperial Guards are patrolling back and forth on the palace road with torches. From time to time, the Imperial Guards are dragging corpses in Taoist robes and casually piling all the corpses on carts.

"Has there been any order from above? What should be done with Mei Baolin?" asked a soldier from the Imperial Guards.

Another person answered him, "That's not one of those fake Taoist priests. She is a concubine in the harem, so she should stay in Guangming Palace safely. She is in great favor right now."

Of course there are Taoist priests with great abilities, but none of them would enter the palace just for the wealth and glory that Emperor Jingmu would give them.

In the dim night, flames were dancing on the torches and the ground was covered with blood. All the arrogant Taoists were silent.

Since they dare to dream of wealth and glory, they have to bear the possible risks.

A Royal Guard saw the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess and shouted, "Greetings to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!"

The general leading the Imperial Guard gestured to his men, and the cart was quickly pulled away, heading outside the palace, probably to be thrown into a mass grave somewhere, to be eaten by wild dogs.

The eunuchs who had been following them with buckets of water hurriedly picked up the cloth in their hands and started to wipe it. Once it was dry, it would be difficult to wipe it off. If the masters in the harem saw it the next morning, they would be punished!

He Yue, who was sitting high on the sedan chair, stiffened up. She saw a hideous blood color. The next moment, her eyes were covered by warm hands. "Yueyue, don't look."
