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

As night fell, the wind was biting. Baili Lin stood outside the house, his robe disheveled and his hands stained with blood. When the female medical officer told him that Song Xuying was safe and just needed to rest, he remained silent and said nothing.

He didn't dare to step into the room. He was afraid of seeing Song Xuying, and even more afraid of thinking of the unborn child.

In the wind, his figure looked particularly lonely and desolate, and his tears flowed silently.

"This is all my fault. If I were still the prince, none of this would have happened." He confessed silently in his heart.

"If I were still the prince." He whispered to himself, over and over again. His eyes were hazy with an unusual light, and his deep eyes were cold. "I want to take back everything that belongs to me."

Just as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept past, blowing up the remaining snow and dead leaves on the ground.

Baili Lin's eyes were firm, with a flame of determination flashing in them. He longed to regain the position of crown prince and become the one with supreme power.

He wanted to restore his former glory and give Song Xuying a stable life. He said:

“Xueying, I will not let you suffer any more, nor will we let our child lose his life in vain.”

Inside the house, Song Xuying barely opened her heavy eyelids. When she heard Baili Lin's voice, she subconsciously touched her abdomen. A trace of sadness surged in her heart, but she quickly put this sadness behind her.

As long as it can make Baili Lin cheer up again, it is worth it even if she loses the child. She deliberately took the abortion pill, hoping to inspire Baili Lin's determination.

In the backyard of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Ye Yunzi put on a cloak, walked out of the room, and went straight to the kitchen.

The guard hiding in the dark just glanced at her and did not stop her.

My Lord has instructed that as long as you don't leave the mansion, there is no need to interfere with where you go.

Ye Yunzi walked into the kitchen skillfully, rolled up her sleeves and picked fresh vegetables, her face full of concentration.

In her spare time, she likes to cook a few dishes by herself. Although they don’t look good, she enjoys doing it.

In addition to cooking, she also makes tea herself, and the aroma of the tea is fresher and sweeter than any teahouse in the capital.

After finishing the meal, she had a simple meal and then asked the servant to clean the table. When the room was quiet again and she was alone, Ye Yunzi gently took out two leaves from her sleeves, which she had secretly hidden in the kitchen.

She carefully roasted the leaves until they had a pungent smell.

With a slight smile on her lips, she put the dried leaves into the jade pot and crushed them with the hairpin. She said softly, "It worked."

After half a month of hard work, she finally got all the necessary herbs. In order to find valuable clues, she risked staying with the Fourth Prince. Although there were two guards watching, she was smart enough to find a way.

Take advantage of the opportunity to collect the materials for the incense bit by bit. Although it is crudely made, it is enough to make people sleep for an hour.

Ye Yunzi sprinkled the powder into the incense burner and lit it. As the fragrance gradually filled the room, she covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief soaked in a special medicine, which was the antidote.

She knew that the guard outside the door would quickly fall asleep after inhaling the fragrance.

Soon, a few muffled noises broke the silence.

Ye Yunzi stood up alertly and peeked out through the crack in the door, only to see two guards lying in front of the door, apparently unconscious.

The aphrodisiac incense she carefully prepared worked. No one expected that she would be so bold as to do something right under the nose of the Fourth Prince.

After confirming it was safe, Ye Yunzi gently pushed open the door and walked through the corridor silently like a ghost in the night.

At this time, the Fourth Prince's mansion was so quiet that it seemed abandoned, and all the guards were patrolling outside, which greatly facilitated her actions.

She chose this day on purpose because Baili Ye had entered the palace early. When she saw the pavilion on the water pavilion from afar, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and she quickly and secretly entered the study.

As soon as you enter the door, the strong scent of ink hits your nose. Various books are neatly arranged on the bookshelf, and an unfinished memorial is spread out on the table.

Ye Yunzi carefully checked every book and document, but found nothing unusual.

Those secret letters and account books cannot be left in the open like this.

"Where are they hiding?" she wondered, her eyes finally stopping on a seemingly ordinary white wall.

If it's not in a conspicuous place, it must be hidden in the dark. With this thought in mind, she began to touch the wall with her hands, tapping and listening carefully, looking for possible mechanisms.

Sure enough, in a certain inconspicuous position, under the pressure of her fingers, a piece of wall slowly moved away, revealing a hidden space.

Ye Yunzi was pleasantly surprised and took out a stack of thick oil paper packages from the secret compartment.

When you open it, you will find a secret account book that is unknown to the public.

Just as she was immersed in this great discovery, a deep voice suddenly came from behind her: "Did you find anything interesting?"

The voice was like a bucket of cold water, causing her to freeze instantly. A cold finger gently stroked her neck, bringing a suffocating pressure.

"It turns out that kittens also have sharp claws and fangs sometimes..." the man threatened.

Ye Yunzi knew Baili Ye's personality very well. He never trusted anyone easily and would remain wary even of his closest subordinates.

Ever since she came here, he has been observing her secretly, waiting for her to reveal a flaw.

Ye Yunzi smiled self-deprecatingly and turned to face him calmly, "I have been pretending for so long, but I still couldn't escape the Fourth Prince's discerning eyes."

Baili Ye narrowed his eyes, seeming a little proud.

"Your Highness, will you kill me?" Ye Yunzi asked directly.

This question may seem naive, but in fact, in the eyes of someone like Baili Ye, any potential threat cannot be tolerated, and he will eliminate the other party without leaving any trace.

"What do you think?" Baili Ye responded coldly.

Ye Yunzi pretended to think about it for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't think so."

"Hmph." After a sneer, his hands gradually tightened around her neck.

The pain reminded Ye Yunzi of the experience of nearly losing her life that day. But she looked firm and met his gaze, "What if I exchange my life for a message? This message is more valuable to you than my life."

Although he did not let go, Baili Ye did not continue to increase his strength, giving her a chance to speak.

Since the cliff fall, Ye Yunzi has cherished her life more and is unwilling to make unnecessary sacrifices. She also wants to accompany her mother and spend the rest of her life with Shen Siyan.

"This news concerns the deposed crown prince," she said softly.

Hearing this, Baili Ye's eyes moved slightly.

"The deposed crown prince is about to take action."

"Do you know what you are saying?" Baili Ye's voice became icy cold, making Ye Yunzi feel difficult to breathe.

But she did not flinch and looked at him firmly.
