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

"Yunzi, you are so kind." Baili Yue whispered, her eyes red. Facing Yunzi's kindness, she didn't understand why Brother Yehua would treat her like that...

"Princess, you are tired. Go to bed early."

"Yeah." Baili Yue lay down obediently, and Ye Yunzi stayed beside her. Baili Yue quietly reached out and grabbed Ye Yunzi's hand under the quilt, feeling extremely relieved, and then she showed a satisfied smile and fell asleep soon.

Ye Yunzi couldn't fall asleep for a long time, with a lot of thoughts in her mind. She was worried that the princess's meeting with Deputy General Rong was not accidental, and Si Yan might be involved behind the scenes. Did something happen in the palace? She finally fell asleep until her eyes were sore.

Meanwhile, in another place.

"Sir, Fang San has been dealt with properly, and all news has been blocked."

Kuimuzhu appeared calm on the surface, but the coldness in his eyes betrayed his dissatisfaction, "The inn was burned down, and one of our men was killed... You can't even protect a woman?"

The beautiful maid immediately knelt on the ground, her face full of guilt, "This is all my negligence, please punish me, sir!"

She covered her injured arm, blood staining her sleeves. Kuimuzhu glanced at her, his eyes were so cold that they made people tremble.

"Please give me another chance, my lord, so that I can atone for my sins and find the Thirteenth Princess..." the maid said tremblingly, knowing in her heart that she might not be able to escape death.

Just when the atmosphere was extremely tense, the door was suddenly kicked open and Baili Ye rushed in angrily, "Where is Yue'er? Tell me quickly!"

"How dare you!" The guards quickly stood in front of him to prevent him from getting closer.

"What happened to Yue'er! I handed her over to you, but you let her fall into danger?" Baili Ye's eyes were wide open, veins on his forehead were exposed, and his face was full of worry for Baili Yue.

When he learned that the inn was destroyed, his heart seemed to be torn apart. The only thing in his mind was Baili Yue, and he regretted why he sent her here.

"Kui Muzhu, is Yue'er okay? If she is hurt in any way, I will never let you off easily!" He asked angrily and almost wanted to take action.

"Stop!" the guard shouted sternly and pushed Baili Ye hard, causing him to fall to the ground.

Facing all this, Kuimuzhu just frowned slightly, and then said calmly: "Don't worry, the Thirteenth Princess is safe and sound."

Baili Ye was stunned for a moment, and asked anxiously: "Where is Yue'er? I want to see her!"

The entire inn was reduced to ashes, and he could hardly believe that Yue'er was really okay. Only by seeing her safe with his own eyes could he feel at ease.

"You can't see her anymore, she has been rescued by someone else." Kui Muzhu replied.

"Who rescued him? What happened?" Baili Ye stared at Kui Muzhu, waiting for an answer.

Kuimuzhu narrowed his eyes, "Rong Mingxuan."

When this name was mentioned, even Kui Muzhu was unwilling to provoke this troublesome general easily.

"Rong Mingxuan?" Baili Ye's expression changed from gloomy to bright, and finally became extremely serious. "Why did he appear in West Street, and why did he take Yue'er away?"

Kuimuzhu snorted coldly, "Ask your followers. They didn't even know they were being followed while escorting the princess."

"Are you saying they are being followed?" Baili Ye's face changed drastically, and he quickly summoned the coachman and palace maid who were responsible for escorting Baili Yue to inquire about the situation.

"Explain clearly what happened! Why did Rong Mingxuan target Yue'er?"

The driver and the maid fell to their knees in haste. The maid turned pale and was terrified. “I didn’t know that man was Deputy General Rong. I thought he was someone close to the princess whom I had met before…”

"But I can guarantee that the person was definitely not Her Royal Highness the Princess! The princess was wearing a veil at the time and had powder on her face, so no one could see her true appearance." The maid explained anxiously.

Baili Ye was so angry that he almost bit his teeth. Ordinary people might not be able to notice it, but that was Rong Mingxuan!

Rong Mingxuan is famous for his shrewdness and means. Once he notices something, he will never let it go easily. With his eyesight, how could he not recognize Yue'er?

"You incompetent!" Baili Ye kicked the maid in the chest in anger. The maid fell to the ground, and felt a sharp pain in her chest, but she did not dare to make a sound. She quickly got up and kowtowed to beg for mercy: "Your Highness, please forgive me! It's all my fault. I failed to complete the task! Please forgive me!"

Baili Ye was panting, his face twisted, and his fists clenched tightly. This incident was caused by the mistake of his followers, but he implicated Prince Kuimuzhu. Not only did he lose Yue'er, he also lost face and could not raise his head in front of Kuimuzhu.

Kuimuzhu's tone was calm, but with a hint of sarcasm: "Your Highness should select more reliable people in the future to avoid repeating the same mistakes."

Although Baili Ye was angry, he had no words to say and could only silently bear the accusation. "It was my negligence that caused trouble for the prince..." he said in a low voice.

"I understand." Kui Muzhu responded coldly. Baili Ye clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white and crackling.

In order to save the situation, Baili Ye lowered his posture: "I will send someone to find Yue'er to ensure that similar mistakes will not happen again... Regarding the matter of borrowing troops, I hope the prince will proceed according to the original plan."

"I will find Yue'er as soon as possible and bring her back." These words made him feel like a knife was cutting his heart, and every word sounded like self-blame.

He was worried that Yue'er's rescue would affect Kui Muzhu's attitude and endanger his plan. Even so, he had to put aside his pride and win Kui Muzhu's cooperation.

"How do you plan to find it?" Kui Muzhu asked.

"After they rescue Yue'er, they will definitely send her back to the palace. I have arranged people to monitor all roads leading to the palace. As long as they find a carriage carrying Yue'er, they will stop it halfway." This was the countermeasure he carefully considered after learning the news that Yue'er was rescued.

This method is almost the only way out. The capital is so big that blindly looking for Yue'er is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, if Yue'er returns to the palace, it will be extremely difficult to bring her out again. Yue'er should have known his intentions by now and will not easily believe him again.

Thinking of this, Baili Ye felt extremely sad. Yue'er, that innocent girl who trusted him wholeheartedly... Whenever he thought of the disappointment in Yue'er's eyes, he felt it difficult to breathe.

If he wasn't forced to do so, he would never accept Kui Muzhu's conditions.

Yue'er, I'm sorry. I hope you can understand my brother's difficulties. I will definitely make it up to you in the future.

Baili Ye lowered his head, his face full of guilt.

Kuimuzhu didn't care about other people's moods. He chuckled and said, "Kidnap people on the way? Humph, with Deputy General Rong guarding beside us, who can easily take the Thirteenth Princess away?"

Baili Ye's body suddenly froze.

"If you want to take the princess back, you must first let Deputy General Rong leave." Kuimuzhu narrowed his eyes, changed to a lazy posture, and said calmly: "If you trust me, follow my instructions tomorrow, and I will ensure that the Thirteenth Princess is brought back safely."
