Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother
Chapter 204: Not Worth Any Money
The matter was dropped and no one mentioned it again. Then, Thirteenth Sister’s Persian cat died.”
At this point, Baili Yan couldn't help but clench his fists. Every time he recalled this, he got furious.
"At this time, someone produced evidence, saying that my mother had ordered someone to poison Thirteenth Sister. She originally wanted to poison Thirteenth Sister, but the snacks she sent were eaten by the Persian cat. The cat died, but Thirteenth Sister was fine."
Ye Yunzi looked at Baili Yan seriously.
"Although my mother and Concubine Gao don't get along, she loves Thirteenth Sister very much. That little girl is as cute as her own daughter. How could she poison her? After the incident, my father sent people to conduct a thorough investigation to find the mastermind behind it, but all the evidence pointed to my mother..."
Baili Yan looked at Ye Yunzi, his eyes turned red and his shoulders trembled slightly.
"My mother has a strong personality and refused to admit it. She said she had never done such a bad thing, but no one believed her. Even my father began to doubt her. In despair, she locked herself up and never went out again."
This stage lasts for seven years.
During these seven years, Concubine Xian really did not step out of the palace. The rumors became more and more outrageous. Everyone thought that the emperor had put her under house arrest. No one thought that she was holding her breath and maintaining her innocence.
Ye Yunzi asked calmly, "Your Highness, do you know who framed Concubine Xian?"
Baili Yan was silent for a while, his eyes wandering. It seemed that he had a suspect in his mind, but was not sure.
Seeing Baili Yan's hesitation, Ye Yunzi thought about it for a moment, then said slowly, "Was it Concubine Wu or the Fourth Prince who did it? These two are the only ones in the palace who have the motivation and ability to do such a big thing. Once Concubine Xian falls, the Seventh Prince will be weaker and unable to compete with others for the position of Crown Prince. In this way, the Fourth Prince Baili Ye will make a fortune."
But, poisoning the Thirteenth Princess...
Ye Yunzi frowned. The Thirteenth Princess was the biological daughter of Concubine Wu and Baili Ye's biological sister. Could they really be so cruel as to attack her? Even if they designed the cat to eat the cake, if something went wrong and Baili Yue ate it, the risk would be too great.
Baili Yan was also worried because of this.
Ye Yunzi clenched her fists, then slowly loosened them, thinking about this matter.
Her eyes turned cold, maybe those two people really did it. Baili Ye was ruthless and could kill even his own people. Family affection was worthless to him and could be used as a pawn when necessary.
A person like Concubine Wu is able to control half of the harem, and her methods are definitely ruthless enough.
Otherwise, how could she have climbed from a minor concubine to the position of a noble concubine?
"I don't know either..." Baili Yan thought for a long time and finally said this.
This happened so long ago that no one can find out anything even if they try to investigate. The palace maid who identified Concubine Xian is also missing.
When Baili Yan thought of this, he let out a long sigh. It was harder than climbing to heaven to rescue Concubine Xian.
Ye Yunzi fell silent after hearing this. Concubine Xian must have been framed, otherwise how could a woman as noble and beautiful as her, who disdained to use despicable means, do such a thing.
……
Baili Yan didn't dare to ask whether his mother could be rescued. He knew that this was too difficult. Unless the emperor changed his mind, no one could do it, not even Shen Siyan.
He looked at Ye Yunzi deeply, speechless.
Ye Yunzi nodded slightly to show that she understood.
"Your Highness, do you remember what the maid who accused Concubine Xian of poisoning looked like?"
This matter must be related to the maid Yan'er, who was probably bribed by Concubine Wu or the Fourth Prince. Baili Yan shook his head and said, "After the incident, we investigated thoroughly. Yan'er was taken away by the Ministry of Justice. After that, she seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. No one in the palace has seen her since."
"I still remember that Yan'er looked very ordinary, nothing special, but those eyes..." He still can't forget those cold, glaring eyes.
"The key point is that she has a mole next to her eye." Baili Yan said slowly as he recalled.
But even if I remember what she looks like now, it's useless. The world is so big. Even if she is still alive, where can I find her? When Baili Yan said this, Ye Yunzi felt nervous, as if she had heard something incredible.
"There is a mole next to the eye." This sentence instantly made a woman's figure appear in her mind. When the Fourth Prince hosted a banquet, she followed Shen Yuming to the Fourth Prince's mansion.
At the banquet, she drank a little wine and was about to go out for some fresh air to sober up, when she saw a figure.
The figure was as thin as a bamboo pole and moved as fast as a ghost. He walked through the courtyard and disappeared in a few steps. The direction he was heading was exactly where the fourth prince lived. She thought he was a thief, and she panicked and followed him quietly.
When she walked into the yard easily, she saw the thin man slip into the room. Her eyes widened, thinking that this was the fourth prince's room, if there was a thief, she would have to call for help immediately, so she tiptoed to the window and gently opened it a crack.
The thin man probably didn't expect someone to follow him, so he wasn't on guard at all and didn't notice if there was anyone outside. Then, Ye Yunzi saw a scene that she would never forget...
The thin man actually tore off her face skin. She was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth and bit her palm, afraid that she would make a sound. Anyone who saw this scene would be shocked. That was the face skin, and it was torn off like this.
She calmed herself down and peeked through the gap again, only to find that what was torn off was not real skin, but a thin flesh-colored mask that looked real when worn on her face.
The person underneath the mask is not a skinny guy at all, but a stunningly beautiful face, with skin so white and tender that you could pinch water out of it, and facial features so delicate that they are astonishing.
How could there be such a beautiful person in this world? Even the most recognized beauty in the capital is far inferior to her.
Ye Yunzi wondered in her heart, why did this girl want to dress up as a boy?
Not long after, a tall figure emerged from the secret door. Originally there was a bookshelf there, but it was pushed open by someone, and then Baili Ye appeared.
As soon as the woman saw Baili Ye, she rushed over to him, hugged him, and said a lot of chatter.
Baili Ye stroked her gently and comforted her for a long time, and then they both fell on the bed. When the bed curtains were drawn, one could tell what happened next without having to watch.
Ye Yunzi blushed and quickly turned away.
She had never mentioned what happened that day to anyone else, and Shen Yuming didn't know about it either.
There's nothing strange about the Fourth Prince being accompanied by a beautiful woman, but this girl pretends to be a man. There must be something fishy going on.
Ye Yunzi thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she had to put the matter aside.
When she sobered up and returned to the banquet to continue watching the dancers' performance, she saw the thin "man" again.
