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

"Help me..." she said in a trembling voice.

The maid sensed something was wrong, realized the seriousness of the situation, and took quick action. She cleverly put a porcelain bottle into Baili Yue's hand, which contained a powder that could cause a rash on the skin. As long as she applied it on her face, even Rong Mingxuan would not be able to recognize her.

……

The air seemed to freeze, and there was silence. Everyone was secretly guessing what the other person was thinking. The man in the blue robe suddenly broke the silence and angrily asked the man on horseback: "Who are you? Why are you throwing stones at me?" Obviously, he was annoyed by being ignored.

At this moment, Baili Yue clenched the porcelain bottle in his hand, weighing in his mind what to do next.

The dull pain from the back of my hand made every slight movement of my fingers unbearable.

However, Rong Mingxuan seemed to be unconcerned. He had witnessed everything that had just happened, and thought to himself that a scoundrel like the man in the blue robe should be sent to the military camp to be taught a lesson, and only after being beaten with fifty military sticks would he learn the truth.

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, the man in blue robe was so angry that his face turned blue, and the back of his hand seemed to hurt even more. He decided not to endure it any longer, and walked straight to Rong Mingxuan's horse, blocking his way. "Stop! You beat someone up and you still want to leave? Do you know who I am? If you don't give me an explanation today..."

"Leave." A cold voice interrupted him.

"What did you say?" The man in blue robe was stunned.

Rong Mingxuan glanced coldly at the man in blue robe, with an unfathomable chill in his eyes, as if he could freeze a person in place.

"I said, get out of here." There was no emotion in his voice, it was cold and heartless.

Hearing these words, the man in blue robe felt a chill running down his spine, his legs went weak, and all the words in his throat were scared back, for fear that opening his mouth would lead to more serious consequences.

Rong Mingxuan suddenly tightened the reins, the horse raised its front hooves, neighed, and almost stepped on the man in blue robe.

The man in the blue robe collapsed to the ground in fear: "Ahh..." He hurriedly used his hands and feet to crawl away from the scene, shouting: "Murder, murder..."

Seeing this, the coachman turned pale and hurried forward to help the man in blue robe up. The latter quickly got into the carriage and ordered tremblingly: "Go, go!" With a wave of the whip, the carriage quickly left the scene.

After dealing with the matter of the man in blue robe, Rong Mingxuan's gaze fell on Baili Yue again.

Baili Yue held the porcelain bottle tightly, and in the chaos, she quickly smeared the powder on her face, even on her neck, for fear of being recognized. She knew that if she acted too concealed, it would only arouse more suspicion, so she mustered up her courage and raised her face.

She was just a masked passerby, and had nothing to do with the Thirteenth Princess in the palace. Thinking of this, Baili Yue suppressed her inner fear, slowly approached, and said softly: "Thank you for your help, young master."

She deliberately lowered her voice, hoping Rong Mingxuan would not recognize her.

Rong Mingxuan became suspicious. The figure and features of the woman in front of him were somewhat similar to those of the Thirteenth Princess. But if she was the princess, why would she appear here and pretend not to know him?

Rong Mingxuan stared at the woman in front of him quietly without saying a word.

Baili Yue's palms were sweating at this moment. She knew very well that the more she did now, the more mistakes she would make. She could only wait for Rong Mingxuan to leave on his own initiative.

After a long while, Rong Mingxuan finally asked, "Where do you live, young lady? Do you need me to give you a ride?"

Baili Yue's heart tightened, but she knew she had to remain calm and wait for the opportunity.

Baili Yue shook her head gently and consoled him, "Don't worry, sir. I have sent someone to buy a new carriage and it will be back soon. Don't worry."

Rong Mingxuan simply responded, but his eyes never left her.

Baili Yue felt uneasy, wondering why he was so late in leaving and whether he had noticed something.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through the street and lifted her veil. Her once smooth face was now covered with red and swollen pimples, which made people frown. It was really hard to look at her.

However, Rong Mingxuan's gaze was fixed on this changed face, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

No matter what Baili Yue becomes, he recognizes in his heart that this is a very familiar face.

"Yue'er..." Rong Mingxuan whispered softly, his voice almost drowned out by the wind.

Baili Yue seemed to have heard a call and looked at Rong Mingxuan with wide eyes in surprise. Did he really recognize her?

The wind stopped, and the veil fell again, as if nothing had happened. The two looked into each other's eyes, and time seemed to stand still.

"Girl! The new carriage is here!" The coachman's voice came from a distance.

This voice was like a life-saving straw to Baili Yue. She hurriedly said, "Sir, I'll take my leave first. If we have the chance to meet again, I will definitely repay your kindness." After saying that, she left in a hurry, fearing to stay for even a second longer.

Rong Mingxuan did not stop her, but just watched her disappear quietly.

Baili Yue didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the carriage disappeared from sight, thinking that maybe he had just heard it wrong.

……

Rong Mingxuan looked at the carriage going away and said in a deep voice: "Follow that carriage and see where it stops in the end."

"Yes, Deputy General." The subordinate responded and left.

Rong Mingxuan's heart was filled with questions: "Yue'er, is it really you?"

He didn't understand why Yue'er left the palace secretly, and why she had so many acne on her face...

The carriage sped away, as if carrying all the secrets away with it. Baili Yue held on to the edge of the carriage tightly, her body swaying with the bumps, her heart filled with anxiety about the unknown journey.

Baili Yue felt her stomach churning in the bumpy carriage, feeling extremely uncomfortable. She couldn't help but ask, "Are we almost there?"

"It's almost there." The maid said calmly, looking into the distance. Not long after, the carriage stopped in front of an ordinary inn.

"Princess, we are here." The maid gently lifted the curtain and invited Baili Yue to get out of the car. Baili Yue looked up and looked around. This place was completely unfamiliar to her.

"Is my brother in there?" Baili Yue asked, holding the maid's hand tightly as she got off the carriage. The maid did not answer directly, but handed her a small porcelain bottle and said, "This is the antidote."

"Antidote?" Baili Yue touched his face in confusion: "Didn't they say that the poison will dissipate on its own after half an hour?"

The maid's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly regained her composure: "Although the poison will disappear on its own, to ensure safety, the princess is better off taking the antidote."

Baili Yue didn't think about it any more and took the pills as instructed. Soon, the redness and swelling on her face disappeared, and her skin became smooth again.

"Thank you, thanks to you I was able to leave the palace safely." Baili Yue thanked sincerely and smiled at the palace maid.

"Princess, please go in quickly. The people inside may be waiting anxiously." The maid urged.
