Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Just then, a scream from outside broke the silence. "Ghost! Don't come over here!"

Mu Yan was immediately attracted to it, "What happened?"

The maids in the tent also leaned out to check the situation, only to see Rong Wanling waving a whip and shouting in horror: "Don't come over, you are all ghosts." In the chaos, the tense atmosphere reached its peak.

Her face was pale and her screams were shrill, as if she was controlled by some invisible force.

The noble girls around had never seen such a scene before, and they were all so frightened that they stood still.

Rong Wanling seemed to be extremely frightened, waving the whip in her hand, "No matter if it's a human or a ghost, don't come near me."

She whipped around in panic and accidentally hit Miss Liu who was beside her with the whip.

Miss Liu was weak to begin with, and the pain was so severe that blood immediately oozed from her arm, and she then fainted on the ground.

"Ah! Miss!"

"Get out of the way... The young lady from the Duke's Mansion has lost control. It must be that willow branch that forced the ghost out."

"Yes, that's right."

The crowd quickly dispersed and stayed away from Rong Wanling, fearing that they would become the next victim.

Seeing this, Mu Yan frowned, wondering: Why is this young lady from the Duke's Mansion suddenly like this? Did something happen?

Rong Wanling was trembling all over, her face pale. She had just clearly seen a dead maid standing in the crowd, with cold eyes, as if questioning the cause of her death.

No, it's not my fault.

Whenever she closed her eyes, those ghostly faces would appear. She kept repeating: "It's not me, it's not me..."

The whip then swung even more violently, as if to drive away anything approaching.

At this time, the guards heard the noise and hurried over.

"Stop her now!"

It would be terrible if any other young lady got hurt, especially now that Her Royal Highness the Princess is present.

Baili Yue was not afraid at all. She stood at the front of the crowd and watched everything with interest.

"Rong Wanling, you have come to this day. You must have done too many bad things to deserve this retribution!" She was secretly proud of herself, thinking that her fourth brother would definitely not marry her this time.

Rong Wanling's vision blurred, and she saw a woman in white clothes with a sullen face staring at her viciously.

"what……"

With a scream, the whip was swung again.

This time, the target was Baili Yue who was standing in the front.

Just when everyone was exclaiming, there was a "pop" sound, but no one was hurt.

When Baili Yue opened her eyes, she found a figure in dark black clothes standing in front of her.

Rong Mingxuan held the whip tightly, blood dripping from his palm, staining the ground red. His eyes were fixed coldly on Rong Wanling.

The moment she saw her elder brother, Rong Wanling burst into tears, "Brother..."

Facing his sister, Rong Mingxuan was filled with disappointment.

He had repeatedly warned her not to cause trouble, but she still got into trouble and almost hurt the Thirteenth Princess.

Even her father might not be able to save her if she got whipped like this. For the sake of the family's reputation, he had to resolve the matter properly.

He snatched the whip from Rong Wanling's hand and threw it on the ground.

Rong Wanling was trembling all over and wanted to explain but couldn't speak.

Rong Mingxuan said impatiently: "The young lady has not recovered yet, take her away quickly."

The maids carefully took Rong Wanling away. She had empty eyes and did not resist.

Turning to face the crowd, Rong Mingxuan said firmly: "I will find out the truth about what happened today and give everyone an explanation." Then he turned to Baili Yue and said: "Your Highness, I am sorry to have frightened you."

Baili Yue responded coldly and demanded that Rong Wanling be severely punished.

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Rong Mingxuan staring at her back, feeling an inexplicable pain in his heart.

When the whip was heading towards Baili Yue, he instinctively stood in front of it because he didn't want her to get hurt.

Why did you do this?

Rong Mingxuan looked down at the wound on his hand, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly clenched his fist.

"Deputy General Rong..." the guards came closer and reminded.

Rong Mingxuan immediately put away his emotions and ordered, "Let's go back to the tent and talk."

At this time, Ye Yunzi walked out of the tent and away from Mu Yan's sight. Her shoulders trembled slightly and she clenched her teeth to endure the pain.

"Miss!" Yu Shu hurried over to support her.

Back in the tent, Ye Yunzi took off her outer clothes and wrapped the wound on her shoulder with special cloth.

Yu Shu gently untied the bandage, revealing the wound underneath that had not yet healed and had reopened, covered in blood, which was shocking to the eye.

"Miss..." Yu Shu called softly with concern.

Ye Yunzi took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and said softly, "It's okay, apply the medicine."

Yu Shu's hands trembled slightly as she treated her wound. Although Ye Yunzi was not from a prominent family, she had been spoiled since she was a child and had never suffered such pain.

The recent injuries had made her much thinner, but even so, her brows were furrowed and her face was pale, but she tried hard not to utter a groan.

After applying the medicine, Ye Yunzi breathed a sigh of relief, her back soaked with cold sweat. "Miss, let me help you wipe your body." Yu Shu suggested.

"No need," Ye Yunzi waved her hand to refuse, "Why was it so noisy outside just now? What happened?"

Yu Shu told the news she had heard one by one: "I heard that Miss Rong of the Duke's Mansion was really possessed by evil spirits. When she saw Willow Tiao today, she was like seeing a ghost. She whipped her like crazy and almost hurt the princess and Miss Liu."

"Fortunately, Deputy General Rong showed up in time and took Miss Rong away." Yu Shu added.

Ye Yunzi pondered for a moment, then ordered: "Go call Leng Xue over, and ask about the young master's condition and see if he has woken up."

Yu Shu left in response, and soon Leng Xue walked into the tent. Seeing Ye Yunzi's concerned eyes, Leng Xue felt warm in her heart.

"Did you plan today's farce?" Ye Yunzi asked directly.

Leng Xue nodded silently.

"To protect you, I have to divert my attention." Ye Yunzi said thoughtfully, "Rong Wanling became a scapegoat, which can be regarded as retribution."

"Just scaring her isn't enough to make her lose control...what other methods did you use?" Ye Yunzi asked.

Leng Xue confessed: "Ye Feng got a kind of incense containing Ze Lan fragrance, which can make people hallucinate and see the most fearful things."

Hearing this, Ye Yunzi's eyes shone. Zelanxiang is extremely rare and poisonous, and ordinary people cannot easily obtain it. And if this spice has also been used in the palace recently, then everything will be clearer.

Mu Yan, the woman who was proficient in disguise and poison, was the confidant of the Fourth Prince.

Baili Ye finally took action. This secret operation should have been extremely covert, but it was discovered by Shen Siyan, who cleverly used it on Rong Wanling.

Soon, Rong Mingxuan or General Rong will find out the truth and discover who is behind it.

A sneer appeared on Ye Yunzi's lips. It turned out that Shen Siyan was not only seeking revenge, but was also planning a bigger chess game.
