Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

"What can I do?" Li Yuyan smiled, "You protect Mingyue and go to Rongdi. After that, find a way to make her take poison and commit suicide. Princess Mingyue was killed in Rongdi. Our Majesty will definitely investigate it in detail and find a scapegoat directly from Rongdi.

If the Rongdi people poison my Tang Dynasty princess to death, Your Majesty can get what he wants and attack the Rongdi people, that's it."

"Could it be that Your Majesty originally wanted Mingyue to die in vain?" Guan Hualang stood up in fear, his face looking sinister and ugly.

Li Yuyan glanced at him and said, "How can I guess what your majesty is thinking? As long as the final result is what your majesty wants, that's enough."

"But...but..." Guan Hualang was extremely shocked. "What if others find out? The Sixth Prince personally sent Mingyue to Rongdi. Will he believe it?"

"The Sixth Prince just left." Wei Bingyan whispered to alert Guan Hualang.

"How could you poison someone with ill intentions? You can't really kill Mingyue, right?" Guan Hualang's voice became excited. He would be willing to do anything as long as he could save Mingyue from Rongdi Kingdom.

Li Yuyan frowned and said, "Is there any effective poison that can make people look like dead people after taking it?"

"That's too risky." Wei Bingyan curled her lips and said, "The Rongdi people advocate cremation before burial. What if they want to burn Mingyue at that time? This method will not work."

"What should we do?" It is easy to find medicine that can make a person appear dead but not really dead, but no accidents can happen when we arrive in Rongdi country. If the people of Rongdi country really burn Mingyue, then everything will be exposed.

Li Yuyan said softly, "Just find someone to replace her. Prince Rongdi doesn't know what Mingyue looks like, let alone those Rongdi people. We just need a woman from our Tang Dynasty."

Wouldn't that mean someone else would have to sacrifice his life in Mingyue's place? Wei Bingyan sighed deeply and suppressed the reluctance in her heart.

"This is a good idea!" Guan Hualang nodded, and the two brothers discussed it quietly.

Wei Bingyan shook her head. This was indeed the best way. It would allow Mingyue to leave the control of the magnificent imperial palace and be with Guan Hualang, and it would also prevent His Majesty from finding a reason for sentencing.

As for sacrificing others... Wei Bingyan thought, Li Yuyan and the others would definitely make arrangements.

"… Madam, it's not that I didn't serve you well, it's that the young mistress really doesn't want me to get close to you. I've been following your instructions, being respectful and humble to you, but you were afraid that she would be unhappy, so you didn't even let me into the study, and shouted at me to get out."

Bichun wiped away her crystal tears and fell at the old lady's feet, her face full of tears, looking so pitiful.

Old Madam Li was impatient and said angrily, "Useless thing! You are usually smart, but how come you act like a fool when you are with the young master?"

Bichun said aggrievedly: "I want to serve you well, but I can't get close to you. Old Madam, you have to make the decision for me."

"Be the decision maker? What decision maker? Who made you so stubborn as to mess with the people around the young master? The young master doesn't like you, and it's useless no matter what you do. Well, you'd better go back to Deyuan. I will definitely talk to the young master." Old Mrs. Li looked at her with disgust.

Originally, it seemed that such a maid was well-behaved and smart, and it would be easy for her to get promoted to Yu'er's side. However, who could have known that she would anger Yu'er in just two days.

She really didn't want to fall out with her grandson over a maid.

Why didn't the old lady take her to settle the accounts with the young mistress one by one, and let the young mistress accept her to serve in the young master's room?

Bichun thought in surprise, not knowing that Wei Bingyan was different from Mrs. Li at that time. How could Mrs. Li do such a thing?

Behind Wei Bingyan is the entire Wei family, and the marriage was arranged by the Empress Dowager.

Shao Zhujing, who had been standing aside, looked at the pale-faced Bichun with a mocking look on her face, and felt a burst of joy and satisfaction deep in her heart. As early as when the old lady asked Bichun to serve in her cousin's study, she thought such a stinky woman was an eyesore. She hadn't even seen her cousin yet, but she regarded herself as half the master and dared to give her a cold look.

Now it’s great. Her cousin really looks down on her, and he even has the nerve to ask the old lady to stand up for her. He doesn’t even think about his own identity.

It’s really a dream for a little maid to think she is worthy of her cousin!

Old Mrs. Li ignored Bichun's sobbing and asked the two mothers-in-law to go in and take her away, and advised her not to appear around Li Yuyan.

"Grand aunt, don't be angry. My cousin is a gifted child and naturally looks down on Bichun, but he is sure to understand your good intentions." Shao Zhujing pinched the old lady's shoulders and comforted her softly.

"I don't want to cause trouble for the couple. Such a lovely grandson has had his own opinions since he was a child. Wei Bingyan is not bad, but she is from a high family. I am afraid that she will not be able to serve Yu'er well. I chose someone who is considerate to serve him. It's fine if he can feel my intentions. If he doesn't understand, he will think that I am an old woman meddling in other people's business."

Old Mrs. Li sighed, feeling deep down that it was all her fault that she was not close to her most adorable grandson.

That woman must have said a lot of bad things about her in front of her son and grandson!

Shao Zhujing said softly, "My cousin will definitely understand your good intentions, Aunt, so don't worry."

"I think Wei Bingyan is not someone you can easily deal with, so you should stop teasing her. After all, you and Yu'er still have a childhood connection. Go to his study more often, and maybe he can be reminded of the deep feelings you had before." Old Mrs. Li said.

"Yes, Zhujing has remembered it." Shao Zhujing was secretly delighted, and she was more attentive in her movements. She believed that in the end, her cousin would definitely know who was the most suitable for him. She would treat him better than Wei Bingyan and was more considerate of him.

The old lady nodded and said nothing more.

……

In the next few days, Guan Hualang and Li Yuyan worked day and night, and no one knew what they were busy with. Even if Wei Bingyan wanted to ask them, it was difficult to see them.

Li Yuyan sometimes came back late at night, and in order to avoid waking up Wei Bingyan, he would rest in the study.

As the day of the marriage was getting closer, Wei Bingyan's heart was in suspense. She knew clearly that what Li Yuyan and the others were going to do would anger His Majesty at any time. If His Majesty got furious, the consequences would be disastrous.

It is even more unclear whether Mingyue is aware of their plan.

Fifteen days passed like this, and Li Yuyan finally returned one day when the sun had just set.

Before Wei Bingyan asked him what he had done these days, he had already said to Wei Bingyan, "You go to the palace tomorrow and tell Mingyue about your plans after arriving in Rongdi Country, so that she won't be clueless by then."

"Who did you find to replace Mingyue?" Wei Bingyan asked.

Li Yuyan said with a smile: "Don't ask me about this. Don't worry, we won't force anyone. This lady is willing to do this."

Of course they were willing to do so. Otherwise, how could they listen to the Rongdi's orders if they went there?

The next day, Wei Bingyan passed a pass to enter the palace. Ever since she carefully treated the empress dowager's hyperactivity, it was much easier for her to enter the palace than for others.

After chatting with the Empress Dowager about some household matters, she sent him away. "Mingyue will be married off in a grand ceremony. You should go and talk to her. She has been unhappy lately. It would be better if she doesn't get sick."

Wei Bingyan responded and immediately left to look for Mingyue.

When she saw Mingyue, Wei Bingyan's heart ached a little. She suddenly thought of the first time she met Mingyue. That woman, dressed in red, full of vigor and vitality, who made people's eyes suddenly brighten up, left such a deep impression on her.

The bright moon should be like a gorgeous firework, unrestrained and passionate, dancing lively, instead of being like it is now, with a pair of lifeless eyes and a bright smile that is bitter, feeling as if one has given up and is helpless about the future.

"Mingyue..." She walked in and shouted with heartache.

"Bingyan, you're here." Mingyue crawled in front of the window, tilted her head to look at Wei Bingyan, smiled and spoke.

Wei Bingyan walked over and pulled her up, "I have something to tell you."

Mingyue asked all the maids in the room to leave, and said with a bitter smile, "Just say whatever you want to say. They don't have the courage to secretly eavesdrop on you from outside."

Even so, Wei Bingyan did not dare to speak quickly. She leaned over to Mingyue's ear and told her in detail about Li Yuyan and Guan Hualang's plan, "...then you will leave with Guan Hualang, stop being a princess, and live your free life."

The white eyes of the bright moon suddenly blazed with a gleam of light, but soon died out completely. "That would... drag down too many people. No, I can't agree to it."

"I believe Guan Hualang and the others will find a way. They will not drag down the Li family, let alone Guanzhuang." Wei Bingyan said.

"What if the Rongdi people find out?" Mingyue shook her head. "Don't talk about it. I won't agree."

No matter how Wei Bingyan persuaded her, Mingyue refused to give her permission.

It seems that Guan Hualang has no choice but to do it himself! Wei Bingyan pondered.

"In that case, why don't we go out and have some fun together in a few days? Ask the Queen Mother to let you leave the palace for a while." Wei Bingyan said.

The bright moon hesitates.

"Don't you want to meet Guan Hualang?" Wei Bingyan said.

"Okay, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow I will leave the palace to find you." Mingyue nodded, after all it was hard to let go of Guan Hualang.
