Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 552

"I know you love Brother Yu..."

Sikong Xuanling's face turned completely red.

"Princess," Bai Jian gestured to her not to fall for the trick.

Zeng Rou had him taken away.

When no one is watching, Bai Jian lets down her guard.

They evaded the people secretly watching them and quietly arrived near the Jiaofang Palace.

Yunxi Yue met him when she went for a walk.

"The Queen..."

He was dressed in eunuch clothes, his whole body was covered in wounds, and his face was dirty. Yun Xiyue didn't recognize him at first glance.

"Are you Bai Jian?"

"Hmm." Bai Jian was injured and was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She looked up at her once and then fainted.

Yun Xiyue said, "Help him in."

Just as he was about to find someone to check his injuries.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

A large group of people came in, including Zeng Rou and Sikong Xuanling.

"Empress, what are you doing?" The Empress Dowager's health has improved recently, and she called Pei Fang, Zhou Zhilan, and Jiang Sijin to accompany her when she went out for a walk today.

In the Imperial Garden, Zeng Rou and Sikong Xuanling overheard a conversation about the Empress having an affair.

Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but step forward to ask if it was true or not.

Sikong Xuanling said that the guards around him had not been castrated at all, and that they had entered the palace this time to have a secret rendezvous with the Empress.

The Empress Dowager initially didn't believe it, but soon someone came to report that Bai Jian had entered the Jiaofang Palace.

That's why he brought people to catch them in the act of adultery.

"Greetings, Mother." Yun Xiyue bowed calmly.

Sikong Xuanling immediately stepped forward, "Yun Xiyue, how could you be so shameless? You actually had an affair with this princess's guard?"

"Bai Jian said he liked you before and that he had known you for a long time, but I didn't believe him."

"Your Majesty, it seems I was right. Bai Jian offended the Empress of Great Xia and deserves to die a thousand deaths. But it takes two to tango. Bai Jian has a crush on Yun Xiyue. If she hadn't given him a chance, he wouldn't have appeared in Jiaofang Palace." As she spoke, she knelt down, intending to plead for Bai Jian.

"Please, Your Majesty, forgive Bai Jian for the sake of the Northern Palace Kingdom."

The Empress Dowager was so angry her face turned green. "Guards, take the Empress away!"

"Mother..." Yun Xiyue wanted to say something.

Zeng Rou stepped forward, not giving her a chance to explain, "Check whether Bai Jian has really been castrated."

"Give him a checkup," the Empress Dowager said immediately.

A guard came in to examine Bai Jian, who was unconscious.

I had no idea that someone would touch and look at my most private parts like that.

"Your Majesty, he was not castrated and is still a man."

Zeng Rou smiled and said, "Your Majesty, what explanation do you have now?"

"That's not true. What do you want me to explain? I just find it inexplicable. Bai Jian is a person from your palace. He suddenly fainted at the entrance of Jiaofang Palace. I found that he was injured and had him carried in to check his wounds."

"You've arrived before it even started."

"If you wanted a secret rendezvous, would you have just barged in like this? Everyone around me is here, and Bai Jian is unconscious. How could we have a secret rendezvous?" Yun Xiyue sneered.

Zeng Rou stared at her with a dark look in her eyes, "You don't need to make excuses. The princess of Beigong Kingdom has already said that you and Bai Jian have known each other for a long time. This is a secret rendezvous. Bai Jian likes you, and that's why he deliberately tried to assassinate me and then found an opportunity to enter the palace."
