Chapter 199 Cherish
Yongninghou Mansion.
"What did you say?" In the flower hall, Madam Du sat on the main seat and looked at Tang Yue'er with a little surprise, "You want to enter the palace?"
"Yes, mother." Tang Yue'er said seriously, "I'll hang out with Concubine Yu in the palace more often, which will also be good for our mansion."
Mrs. Du was about to laugh at her words. She asked speechlessly, "Where did you hear that Concubine Yu wanted you to enter the palace?"
Tang Yue'er felt guilty for a moment, and lowered her head to answer, "It was... that day in the backyard, when my mother was talking, I accidentally heard it."
Mrs. Du sneered: "Oh, you have a very sharp ear."
"Mother," Tang Yue'er said, "Since Imperial Concubine Yu has already brought it up, I should go to the palace, otherwise it will cause her dissatisfaction with our mansion."
Mrs. Du thought that this matter was not something she needed to worry about.
She said coldly: "She won't. If you don't go, it won't cause her dissatisfaction with the Marquis' Mansion."
Tang Yue'er was choked and said, "Well, what about my body? I'm already six months pregnant. The doctor said the fetus is stable at this stage. I need to move around more so that I can have an easier birth."
"Isn't the mansion big enough for you to move around?" Mrs. Du said with her eyelids lowered, "Why don't you just clean your yard every day? I'll let you clean the backyard as well."
Tang Yueer: ...
Facing shi Du, she was really suppressed.
"Mother." Tang Yue'er was anxious. "The Imperial Concubine is pregnant like me. I am also feeling down because of my poor health. I really want to chat with someone who is also pregnant. Imperial Concubine Yu and I need each other during this period. Please let me go. I will go to the palace every day to chat with Imperial Concubine Yu and come back in the evening. It won't delay anything."
After listening to Tang Yueer's words.
There were only two words in Du's mind: idiot.
What a brainless fool she is!
Who is Concubine Yu?
How could a little concubine like her treat Imperial Concubine Yu as her friend? And they needed each other?
Mrs. Du really didn't know how Zhou Ziyue fell in love with this fool in the first place?
Why did she agree to marry her in the first place?
Mrs. Du was speechless after hearing what she said. She felt that the air in the mansion was stale with such a fool staying there.
She really wanted to throw her out with a broom.
Mrs. Du snorted coldly: "Do you really want to go?"
"Yes, mother." Tang Yue'er's face was full of sincerity, "Please help me, mother, and let me enter the palace to see Concubine Yu."
She asked for this.
Mrs. Du thought that it would be best if she provoked Du Ruyu and had him executed, so that she wouldn't have to go through the trouble of taking action.
"Then what about the work in the Marquis' Mansion?" Mrs. Du arranged a lot of work for Tang Yue'er.
"Isn't Jiang Qin here?" Tang Yue'er suddenly remembered something, turned around, grabbed the arm of Jiang Qin who was standing at the door, and pulled her in.
Jiang Qin placed her hands neatly in front of her, looked at her silently and lowered her head.
"Let Jiang Qin help me with my work."
Du: ...
She felt a headache and stroked her head. She had said that the daughter of a small family was lowly, but she didn't expect that her brain was also disabled. She glanced at Jiang Qin, who was standing there with her head lowered.
Can't she see why this widow was so determined to move into the Marquis's mansion?
This idiot!
Mrs. Du didn't want to say a word to Tang Yue'er anymore. She stood up and said, "Okay, since you asked for it, you can take a carriage to the palace tomorrow."
Tang Yueer's eyes lit up when she heard this and she quickly thanked him.
Jiang Qin lowered her head respectfully and watched her leave.
When Mrs. Du passed by her, she snorted rudely and left.

At night, Bai Mansion.
The Bai Mansion was covered with fallen petals, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air. The moonlight shone in the Bai family's courtyard, and Bai Yanli, dressed in white, was sitting in the courtyard brewing wine. The petals fell into the brewing wine glass, adding a touch of leisure.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew.
A black figure flew down from the roof and landed lightly on the ground.
Bai Yanli heard the noise, but continued to prepare tea without changing his expression.
After Lin Junchen landed, he walked towards here slowly.
The tea was just brewed.
Bai Yanli stretched out his slender hand, picked up the teapot and filled the empty cup opposite him, and said, "Sit down."
Lin Junchen paused, lifted his clothes and sat down.
Under the moonlight, two figures, one white and one black, sat opposite each other.
"Is there something?" Lin Junchen picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and said lightly.
Bai Yanli didn't beat around the bush. He said, "You should know everything about the palace."
"Your Majesty wants to deal with the Crown Prince. And there is a very powerful force behind the Crown Prince, that is the family of Crown Princess Shen Bishui, the Shen Family Army stationed at the southeastern border. The Shen Family Army is very powerful, and if they want to destroy the Crown Prince, they can't avoid the Shen Family Army."
Lin Junchen listened quietly and took a sip of tea slowly.
"I secretly learned that although the Shen family army is far away in the southeastern border, General Zhaowu Shen Lang has sent several teams to the capital to assist the prince in order to strengthen the prince's power."
"I don't know as much as you do about military affairs, but I believe you should be able to find these teams and help His Majesty depose the Crown Prince." Bai Yanli's words were concise and to the point, and he had made the core of the conversation clear to Lin Junchen.
After hearing this, Lin Junchen stopped drinking the tea in his hand. He turned the teacup and pondered for a moment, then put the cup on the table and stared at Bai Yanli: "Killing the prince is helping the emperor..." He paused and asked, "Or your King of Wei?"
Smart people don't need too many routines when communicating.
Bai Yanli also said: "Of course, we are helping His Majesty. Whether the King of Wei can get what he wants is another matter."
Lin Junchen was silent for a moment.
That is not a later story. Killing the crown prince is definitely the most beneficial to the King of Wei.
But the emperor is indeed taking action against the prince.
The General's Mansion has always been loyal to His Majesty, so there is nothing wrong in helping His Majesty get rid of this force.
Thinking of this, Lin Junchen made up his mind: "I will report this matter to my father before taking any action."
Seeing that he agreed, Bai Yanli nodded. He raised his hand to pour himself some tea, but saw that Lin Junchen's eyes were fixed on him for a long time without moving.
He raised his head in surprise.
But Lin Junchen laughed in a low, self-deprecating tone: "If I had known that you had been interested in Wanru, I wouldn't have been so anxious to leave the capital."
Hearing this, Bai Yanli laughed and said, "It is difficult to disobey the king's order. You won't go either?"
His answer was simple: “No.”
If he had not gone to accompany Jing, he might have had a chance if he had tried harder. He cherished Wanru too much and always wanted to gain some fame before confessing his love, but it was a pity that he lost the chance after delaying.
Bai Yanli smiled faintly.
"Now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say." He stared at Bai Yanli deeply, "If you betray her, I will not show mercy." After saying that, he stood up and turned to leave.
Bai Yanli called him and he stood up: "You won't have a chance."
He said firmly: "I won't let her down."
Lin Junchen clenched his fingers lightly, and walked away stepping on the fallen petals on the ground.
After he left, Sui Qi also came out.
Bai Yanli ordered coldly: "Send someone to keep an eye on him. The General's Mansion arranged a spy in the Shen family army in the southeast in the early years. Lin Junchen wants to find the teams sent by the Shen family army to the capital, so he will definitely contact this spy to ask for clues. I want this person's identity."
Sui Qi nodded and said, "Yes, Master."
