Late at night, Bai Tuantuan came out of the Chen residence and saw Ning Nanxiao wearing a white robe.
What are you doing here?
Bai Tuantuan looked at Ning Nanxiao curiously, "Looking for me?"
Ning Nanxiao replied, "Are you going to Prince Ping's residence?"
Although it was a question, the tone was firm: "Because of Zheng Yinrong, you want to teach the Mu brothers, Mu Chengjin and Mu Chenglan, a lesson?"
Bai Tuantuan: ……
“You don’t have to be so smart…” Bai Tuantuan crossed her arms and looked helplessly at Ning Nanxiao, “So you’re here to persuade me not to go?”
Ning Nanxiao chuckled softly, looking at Bai Tuantuan's delicate face in the moonlight, and for a moment he was in a daze: "Have you ever listened to me? Together."
Bai Tuantuan's eyes lit up, and she laughed: "Luckily you didn't stop me, otherwise I would have had to rack my brains to get rid of you."
With that, Bai Tuantuan and Ning Nanxiao used their lightness skills to rush towards the Prince Ping's mansion.
The Prince Ping's residence was unusually quiet at this time, but there were quite a few hidden guards and attendants lurking in the shadows.
If we rush in, we'll only alert them.
Bai Tuantuan and Ning Nanxiao were in a corner, sensing the atmosphere around them, their brows furrowed: "Prince Ping is really afraid of death."
Ning Nanxiao raised an eyebrow: "Kill one?"
“No.” Bai Tuantuan shook her head, then her eyes suddenly lit up. “Kill them all, then replace them with our people.”
Ning Nanxiao gave a thumbs up: "Good idea."
So the two split up and secretly eliminated several guards.
However, the closer they got to the inside, the more vigilant the guards became. Until they reached the center, Bai Tuantuan's face turned pale. After dodging an attack, she made a hand seal and struck with a single blow!
An hour later, Bai Tuantuan finally reunited with Ning Nanxiao.
Both of them were in a sorry state. After glancing at the sky, they decided to leave.
Bai Tuantuan notified Tieguo, asking her to find someone to fill the vacancies.
“They are still here after all.” Bai Tuantuan bit her lip tightly. “That master has actually infiltrated Sheng Ning Kingdom. Prince Ping should know about this.”
Ning Nanxiao's expression was solemn: "You go back first, I'm going to the palace."
Bai Tuantuan responded and then said, "Tell the Emperor that if things get out of control, I will have to move my grandfather and the others to Peach Blossom Island."
"I understand what you mean."
Ning Nanxiao patted Bai Tuantuan's head and ran towards the palace.
Bai Tuantuan stood still, looking at the Pingwang Mansion shrouded in darkness, her hands clenched into fists.
Over the years, she has never forgotten the tragic scene she witnessed in Ni Yiguo.
As long as the practice of "absorbing yin to supplement yang" persists, this phenomenon will continue to exist!
The next morning, as soon as Xiang Chaoyang arrived at the Bai residence, Bai Tuantuan pulled him inside to cultivate.
Xiang Chaoyang could clearly sense Bai Tuantuan's tension and urgency.
"Master, has it been them?"
When Xiang Chaoyang suddenly asked a question, Bai Tuantuan pondered for a moment and nodded: "Yes, your chance for revenge has come. It all depends on whether you can seize it."
A fierce hatred flashed in Xiang Chaoyang's eyes, but he didn't say a word. After processing it for a while, he fell into cultivation.
Soon, Guan Xin, Huang Lian, and Zheng Yinrong arrived at the Bai family's house.
Bai Tuantuan pulled them to learn together, and Guan Xin and the other two were quite serious. After all, it was a field they had never been exposed to before. Although it was slow, they also had their own ideas.
"Miss, Madam Zheng has arrived." Ruotang's voice rang out from outside.
Soon, Mrs. Zheng was invited in.
Looking at the haggard Zheng Yinrong, Madam Zheng's face showed worry.
"Mother!" Zheng Yinrong rushed towards Madam Zheng. "I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back..."
Madam Zheng patted Zheng Yinrong on the back: "Don't worry, I told your grandfather that you went to keep your grandmother company. Your grandmother is willing to cover for you. Just stay here with Princess Zhenguo and don't worry. Your mother will take care of everything."
After Bai Tuantuan led the two to sit down, she slowly said, "Has Madam Zheng investigated thoroughly?"
“I didn’t investigate.” Madam Zheng smiled sarcastically. “I just spread the news that we were going to marry Prince Ping, and many people came to remind me. Even when I went to buy jewelry, the shopkeepers I was on good terms with told me that the two were not a good match.”
"Later, I gave the booklet to Yinrong's father. After checking it, he proved that everything written in the booklet was true. We told our mother about it. When our mother confronted our father, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it."
“My father used to love Yinrong very much, but now he has changed. He cares about nothing but power.”
Madam Zheng looked at Zheng Yinrong with affection: "Your grandmother knows you are with Princess Zhenguo and told you not to cause trouble and to listen to the princess. We are here for you, so don't worry."
Tears streamed down Zheng Yinrong's face: "But it's no use opposing Grandfather's decision."
"With parents and matchmakers in charge, there's nothing to fear."
Madam Zheng took a deep breath: "If all else fails, there's still the Third Prince. Even if we side with the Third Prince, it's better than marrying into the Prince of Jiuping's two sons."
Zheng Yinrong pursed her lips and remained silent.
Madam Zheng stroked Zheng Yinrong's hair: "No matter what, your mother will never push you into a fire pit."
Zheng Yinrong's voice, trembling with sobs, rang out: "Mother..."
“Madam Zheng.” Chen Zhixiu walked over slowly with a faint smile on her face. “You can rest assured that Yinrong will stay here. I wonder if Madam Zheng has time? I have a few questions I would like to ask Madam Zheng.”
Mrs. Zheng quickly wiped away her tears and stood up: "Of course there is."
With that, he and Chen Zhixiu walked out.
Once outside, Chen Zhixiu asked, "Are you willing to separate from Lord Zheng?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Zheng was stunned: "Dividing the family property?"
Chen Zhixiu nodded and said softly, "I know about seven or eight parts of what's going on in your family. If you split up, you and Lord Zheng will naturally fall out. At that time, Lord Zheng's wealth and honor will have nothing to do with you."
“If we split up, or if disaster strikes, it will have nothing to do with us, right?” Madam Zheng quickly said.
Chen Zhixiu shook her head: "No, even if your entire family is executed, you will still be among those executed."
Mrs. Zheng's face turned pale.
"But the Emperor is not a heartless man. If you are willing, I can take you to meet him."
Chen Zhixiu's words brightened Madam Zheng's expression.
She pondered for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "Alright! I'll go discuss it with my husband right away!"
With that, he hurriedly left.
Seeing this, Granny Bai sighed and said, "Young Madam Zheng has really gone to great lengths for Miss Zheng."
Chen Zhixiu chimed in, "Yes, after all, they are his own children, how could he not love them? It's just that Lord Zheng is getting more and more senile as he gets older!"
