Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Baiyue City, a three-story house located in Ping'ankangli in the southern part of the city. The hazy night is dim, the sky is full of stars, and the summer breeze is blowing continuously. From the main courtyard house, there are intermittent and continuous sounds of delicate moans that make people's blood boil and men's heavy breathing.

I don’t know how much time passed before the two figures slowly quieted down.

The room was filled with the luxurious feeling after a passionate lovemaking.

In the tent, a naked woman with fair skin was lying on her back in the man's arms. "Master, why are you so powerful tonight? You almost broke me."

The man opened his eyes, which were dirty and slightly red, obviously because he had been drinking. After hearing what the woman said, he suddenly pressed her down again.

"You're so annoying. I was in a bad mood tonight and I took it out on others." The woman said aggrievedly, her soft hands gently caressing his chest.

Endless desire and drunkenness came at the same time, "If it wasn't for that Gong, how could I be imprisoned..."

"You are the head of the Fang family, are you afraid of Boss Gong?" The woman moaned softly and tried her best to gently twist her body to assist him.

“If he hadn’t discovered the secret of our Bai family…” The man panted heavily and his figure lowered.

The woman closed her eyes slightly, listening to the man's dreamy whispers, and suddenly, a little panic appeared on her face.

On the third day after Wei Bingyan left Baiyue City, Li Yuyan smiled less and less, and even when facing the admiral, he showed no expression.

The bidding for river transport gradually came to an end.

This was probably a river transport business that was used for internal treasury transactions in the imperial court, but now it has fallen into fierce bidding competition among the streets, and has become a platform for many people to eliminate their enemies and make huge profits.

During this month, even though Li Yuyan was in charge of river transportation, it was completely impossible for him to do things according to the rules of literature and science.

The Gong family's sincere welcome, the secret persuasion of the officials in power in Baiyue, the pressure from the capital... everyone wanted to turn river transportation into their own business.

However, no matter what those people will do secretly, Li Yuyan will turn a deaf ear to it. He represents the emperor, and the decision he makes is the decision of His Majesty. Those people are confused and don't know who their opponents are.

Li Yuyan sat directly in the main hall of the Admiral's Mansion, looking down at the exquisite water cup in his hand that was as bright and clear as jade, as if he was not listening to what Li Chongsheng was saying at all.

"... Sir Li, you should understand who the Gong family represents. The bidding results will probably be out the next day, and you should know what to do, right?" Li Chongsheng is in his forties this year. He has made a lot of money in Baiyue over the years, which has caused his originally thin body to swell rapidly. His eyes are almost squeezed out by the white flesh on his face.

What an idiot! Li Yuyan cursed in his heart. Everyone knew that the Gong and Bai families, who had the greatest competitive power, had people behind them, but they all understood it and didn't say it out loud. People like Li Chongsheng would come out to be the culprits, and they didn't know how he would die.

"With Lord Li's guidance, I naturally know what to do." Li Yuyan said softly.

Li Chongsheng nodded with satisfaction, "In the future...there will be benefits for you, Master Li."

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Li Yuyan's eyes. He was certain that behind the Gong family, in addition to the Fourth Prince and the Linghu family, there were also two concubines in the palace. Even outside the palace, there were many people involved. He didn't know whether Li Yunze knew the inside story of Princess Su Yan's involvement.

However, what surprised him was that he didn't expect that Princess Mudan was also involved. Although she was not of the same kind as the Fourth Prince, she had indeed extended her hand to Baiyue.

Princess Mudan seemed to have lived in Baiyue for some time before, but how did she get involved with the Fang family? And this time, the Fang family did not make any mistakes.

That is, she did not try to please him on purpose, nor did she use the relationship behind to hit him. This was hinted by Princess Mudan, and because the secret was in the hands of the Gong family, she had to give in?

After all... who was the person who made Princess Mudan decide to give up everything and run away from home? It seems that no one knows until now, except the people in Prince Ping'an's palace.

Li Yuyan did not continue to exchange pleasantries with Li Chongsheng. He just discussed the bidding process for the next day and then immediately withdrew and left.

After leaving the Admiral's residence, Li Yuyan entered the carriage and whispered to the people behind him, "Find out who Princess Mudan has contacted with from the Fang family, and...find out the man who made Princess Mudan leave Prince Ping'an's residence."

Su Leiye behind responded and left secretly.

In the carriage, there was also Fang Feiting who had been waiting for Li Yuyan for a long time.

"Xiao Nianguang just met the second young master Bai. What do you think of the Xiao family relying on such a playboy to come to Baiyue?" Fang Feiting said, and he was really speechless about Xiao Nianguang's behavior in Baiyue these days.

Xiao Nianguang is just Old Master Xiao's late-born son, so he is naturally spoiled. He didn't expect to train him vigorously, but let such a good-for-nothing take on such a heavy responsibility. Does Old Master Xiao want to destroy the Xiao family, or is he just trying to fool the empress in the palace?

Li Yuyan said, "Concubine Lu De wants to help the Bai family, but she doesn't want to show it too much. Letting Xiao Nianguang and the second young master Bai come into contact can not only deceive people, but also weaken other people's attention. Many things can't be judged only on the surface..."

"Sir, you and the Xiao family are relatives after all. If it is Old Master Xiao who conveys the message to you, you can't refuse, right?" Fang Feiting asked tentatively.

When they arrived at Baiyue City, Concubine Lu De specifically asked Wei Bingyan to go back to the Xiao family to visit Old Master Xiao. It was obvious that she was trying to use Old Master Xiao to test him, but Wei Bingyan pretended to be drunk and got away with it. Old Master Xiao was afraid that he no longer had any intention of winning him over.

However, he still did not choose to give up his control over Baiyue after careful consideration.

Did Concubine Lu De choose the Bai family? The Bai and Gong families of Xuanmu Mansion are in-laws, so how could they have different positions? It seems that the relationship between the Xiao and Bai families is not simple. I can ask my mother-in-law later, maybe she knows.

"If he wanted to tell me something, he wouldn't have to wait until today." Li Yuyan glanced at Fang Feiting. "How are you keeping an eye on the Fang family?"

"Fang Shengjing went to Ping'an Kangzhong last night. Miss Cheng Yang sent someone to tell the adults early in the morning that she had something to tell you." Fang Feiting was secretly surprised by Li Yuyan's look and hurriedly lowered his head to speak.
