A concubine? You're more like a joke. I'd rather send you to your death.

"Achi, there's no need to be angry. Some people have overreached themselves, and we can't guard against them all."

After all, she was the Empress, and had been wielding power and influence in the capital for many years; these were just minor tricks.

Having watched too many palace dramas in the past, Bai Luoluo felt that this was all standard practice.

If they've been caught red-handed, wouldn't it be foolish not to kill them to silence them?

"With the only evidence gone, it will be very difficult to find any incriminating evidence."

Gu Yanchi was somewhat annoyed; he actually had a guess as to who was behind it.

The Department of Penal Justice really needs a thorough overhaul and replaced with our own people.

"The fox's tail will show sooner or later, Achi, there's no need to worry."

Bai Luoluo offered words of comfort.

Villains usually live to the end, but the empress can't be so easily dethroned.

Gu Yanchi just felt that he was poisoned by Gu, and that he might die one day.

He was somewhat anxious. He still couldn't believe what had happened back then; he couldn't believe that his gentle and kind mother would be someone who had corrupted the palace.

The lives of his maternal grandfather's three clans are still at stake, and he is waiting to seek justice.

Over the years, he risked his life on the battlefield to kill the enemy, all for the sake of military merit, so that one day he could return openly and legitimately to investigate what happened back then.

"Luo'er is right, I was too impatient."

Gu Yanchi and his companion arrived at the main hall of the Censorate.

Leng Feng returned with a corpse.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, this person is already dead."

When he arrived, the old man was already dead inside the house, with clear ligature marks on his neck.

"As expected, they were ruthless enough to clean off the tail so cleanly in one go."

Bai Luoluo stepped forward and glanced at the old man's corpse.

It was clearly a homicide; he was strangled to death.

The murderer may be someone from the Ministry of Justice, but without evidence, it's too difficult to find.

"It seems they came prepared. I will need to go to the palace again this time."

Gu Yanchi walked to Bai Luoluo's side.

"it is good."

"I will send Luo'er back to the Prince's Mansion first, and then go to the Palace."

All the witnesses were dead, and he had to report to the Emperor.

"No need, I can go back by myself. Now that the witness is dead, it would be better for Achi to go to the palace as soon as possible."

Bai Luoluo refused; now that she had a pistol in hand, she wasn't afraid of assassination.

Moreover, given the current unstable situation, those hiding in the shadows are unlikely to make a move.

"Leng Feng, take Zhang Kui, the commander of the Censorate, and escort the Princess back to the manor."

Gu Yanchi now calls her "Princess Consort" so naturally.

The two were only betrothed by arrangement and did not actually get married.

The title of "Princess Consort" is now inappropriate, but Bai Luoluo is the Princess Consort recognized by Gu Yanchi, and everyone in the Prince's Mansion now addresses her as Princess Consort.

"Yes."

Leng Feng knew he had failed in his duty today and felt somewhat apologetic.

"Luo'er, I will return to the manor shortly. If you need anything, please give instructions to Leng Feng."

Gu Yanchi gave Bai Luoluo another round of instructions, just like an old father.

Although it was a bit long-winded, Bai Luoluo felt a warmth in her heart.

"Ah."

She nodded obediently, and Gu Yanchi then turned and left.

Just outside the Shenxing Division gate, Bai Luoluo boarded the carriage.

The streets are bustling right now, and cars are moving very slowly.

Pedestrians came and went in an endless stream, creating a peaceful scene.

Bai Luoluo felt extremely bored, so she reached out and opened the car window to look outside.

"Have you heard? Miss Bai spent the night at the Prince of Xiling's mansion and has already climbed into the prince's bed."

"How could such a thing happen? They really have no shame."

"Indeed, our War God Prince's illustrious reputation has been ruined by a woman like this."

"Miss Bai is truly ill-mannered. She can do such a thing. She has really disgraced the General's Mansion."

"How dare someone so ugly climb into your bed?"

..............

Words, phrases, and sounds, were so offensive and offensive that they reached Bai Luoluo's ears.

She climbed into my bed!

They were clearly injured and almost killed by an assassin, so where did these ignorant people get that information from?

In an instant, Bai Luoluo understood.

These words must have been spread by someone sent by the witch Zhang.

They really don't stop trying to ruin her reputation.

"Cold Wind, tell these people that I was injured, not that I climbed into their bed."

Bai Luoluo gave the order calmly.

She was carried onto Gu Yanchi's bed, where she fainted due to excessive blood loss.

To say she "climbed into someone's bed" is an insult to her dignity.

If she really wanted to, she would do it openly and honestly.

Is it necessary to climb?

Leng Feng was taken aback by these words.

"Your Highness, please do not be angry. Before the Prince left, he ordered the Ministry of Justice to post a notice. This message should be put to rest in less than half a day."

Leng Feng knew that Bai Luoluo must be angry, so he quickly spoke up.

“Your prince is so thoughtful that I don’t even need to lift a finger.”

Bai Luoluo never expected that this man had arranged everything so clearly.

She seems to be able to be a lazy bum, not having to worry about anything, just lying around doing nothing.

"The princess is someone the prince values, so naturally he takes good care of her."

Leng Feng quickly spoke up for his prince.

It wasn't intentional; after all, this was the first time Gu Yanchi had cared about someone so much, valued them so much, and been so attentive to them.

Leng Feng's subordinates all saw this and knew that Bai Luoluo's status was extraordinary.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the Prince's Mansion.

Bai Luoluo stepped down from the carriage.

She didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to the laboratory.

The plaque has now been installed.

Bai Luoluo was preparing the necessary items for Gu Yanchi's medicinal bath because she was afraid that some people would lose their composure and cause the Gu worms to riot.

At this juncture, the only option is to try to put the Gu worms into a complete slumber before she can think of another way to lure them out.

If the Gu worm was planted by the Empress, then she must be a master of poisons.

Even if she wasn't, this master of poison must have been by the Empress's side.

The Miao people are skilled in Gu poison techniques; could there be a Miao region in this book?

............

At this moment, Butler Wang came to knock on the door.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince and your half-sister have arrived at the Prince's residence and are now in the main hall."

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoluo's face immediately darkened.

These two scoundrels came to see if she was dead or not.

"Okay, I'll be there shortly."

Bai Luoluo put down the herbs in her hand, pushed open the door, and went out.

"This old servant knows that the princess dislikes these two, but I am of low status and have no power to stop her."

Butler Wang felt somewhat apologetic.

Having spent most of his time at the border, he knew very little about this princess, so he privately inquired about Bai Luoluo.

The answer was not satisfactory, but fortunately, Bai Luoluo is different now than before.

The Third Prince was the person Bai Luoluo held dear in her heart.

Butler Wang also wanted to see if the princess had truly forgotten her past.

So, after some initial resistance, he still allowed the Third Prince and Bai Qianqian to enter the mansion.

"It's alright, actually I'd quite like to see these two."

The mere mention of "I really want to" made Butler Wang feel vaguely uneasy.

Is his master truly going to misplace his affections? Bai Luoluo has been entangled with the Third Prince all this time.

At this moment, Bai Luoluo had a bloodthirsty smile on her lips.

snort!

It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.

She was injured and took a hard slap.

Gu Yanjin, he should also experience what it's like to be worse than dead.

We'll treat him to this itching powder properly today.

She didn't notice the expression on Butler Wang's face.

Bai Luoluo lifted her veil slightly and led Butler Wang to the main hall.
