Chapter 414 Retreat, retreat, retreat!



On September 13th, the arrangements of the Nanli royal family were announced.

The king's birthday on September 23rd was held as scheduled, and the new king's coronation ceremony was held on September 26th, three days after the birthday.

Although Baili Chengyou has not yet ascended the throne, the king has suffered a serious "stroke" and is unable to speak, let alone handle state affairs.

Therefore, Baili Chengyou is now the undisputed head of the Nanli Kingdom.

As for Meng Guxue, the third imperial concubine who is about to become the king's wife, she still has to run between the Shen Mansion and the Envoys' Villa every day.

She went to the Shen Mansion because she really loved the lady, so she wanted to take advantage of the few days they were together to accompany her and help her slowly get over the pain of losing her father.

Baili Chengyou has already made arrangements. After he ascends the throne, he will confer the title of King of Annan on Baili Chengzhi and order him to choose an auspicious day to travel to his fiefdom in the south. The "Second Imperial Concubine" will naturally accompany him.

But the real Second Imperial Concubine, the admirable Miss Lan, had already quietly bid farewell to her parents, and rode her horse and sword in hand, towards the great rivers of the world she longed for.

Not to mention going to the Envoy's Villa, her lovely little sisters are still there!

Meng Guxue felt that Shen Ningyun was slowly untying the knot in her heart, and when she came out of Shen's house, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

That’s great——

"Imperial Concubine, word just came from the palace that the Fourth Princess has been making a scene again and again and wants to see you."

A'ya came forward and said respectfully.

Meng Guxue raised her eyebrows when she heard this. "If she said she wanted to see me, I would go to see her. How embarrassing would that be? Forget about her. I'm going to find Jiaojiao!"

Meng Guxue was about to get on the carriage when A'er followed closely and added, "The Fourth Princess said that you might want to know about Shen Yuanbai's news?"

Meng Guxue turned her head suddenly, "Ah? Why didn't you tell me earlier! Go see her! I'll go see her now!"

The crisis of Jiaojiao dying at the age of three weighed on Meng Guxue's heart like a huge rock. After much thought, she felt that Shen Yuanbai was the biggest threat!

If Baili Miaoxue could reveal any useful information, she would be really thankful!

Meng Guxue quickly got into the carriage and shouted to A'er, "Go back to the palace!"

————

Baili Miaoxue is now imprisoned in her own palace and cannot take even a single step out.

She didn't know how many bowls, plates and ornaments she had broken, she just couldn't swallow this anger!

That night, she clearly wanted to awaken the Double-word Gu in Meng Guxue's body so that she could deal a fatal blow to the third brother, but she didn't expect that she would be the one to be hit!

When she woke up from her trance, it was already the next day, and the news she received was -

The eldest brother's rebellion was suppressed, and father passed the throne to the third brother. Everything is a foregone conclusion!

How could she be willing to accept this? Everything she had planned had become in vain, even all her schemes had become in vain!

What made her feel most disgusted was that she fell into the hands of that idiot Meng Guxue!

She reflected on this for so many days, and based on the fragmentary information given by the palace maid, she had already vaguely pieced together the plan of Shen Yuanbai and Yinzhu.

The eldest brother is a fool. He was being schemed against by the second and third brothers as well as Shen Yuanbai, and he even dragged her into the trap!

Shen Yuanbai......

Speaking of Shen Yuanbai, Baili Miaoxue gritted her teeth.

From the moment she decided to cooperate with Shen Yuanbai, she was ready to take advantage of the situation. She was cautious at every step and even secretly cast a spell on Shen Yuanbai, but she didn't expect that she would still be deceived by him!

Who would have thought that Shen Yuanbai already had the soul-enchanting mother Gu in his body!

Baili Miaoxue felt that she had ended up in complete defeat without knowing why, and all the blame was put on Shen Yuanbai and Meng Guxue!

Even though she is imprisoned in the Princess' Palace and cannot leave, she will find ways to make Meng Guxue unhappy and muddy the waters so that they can fight to the point of mutual destruction!

"She's in there?"

Meng Guxue's voice suddenly sounded outside the hall, and Baili Miaoxue's spirits suddenly perked up!

She looked around and her eyes fell on the vase she had just broken. She suddenly took a few steps forward, bent over, picked up the sharpest piece, and quickly hid it in her palm and under her sleeve.

The palace door was opened and Meng Guxue walked in step by step.

Baili Miaoxue looked up and saw that Meng Guxue did not bring any maids or servants with her, and she was secretly delighted.

Meng Guxue looked around and saw that the ground was in a mess.

But even so, Baili Miaoxue, who was imprisoned here, still did not forget her dignity as a princess, and even her gorgeous hair was not the slightest bit messy.

Meng Guxue was secretly worried when she saw this, and instantly remembered what Qiao Tianjing taught her:

"In the face of adversity, they never forget their manners or their pride. Most of these opponents still have determination in their hearts and will fight to the last!"

"If he shows weakness and acts small, it means he has a plan and is luring you into a trap. Miss Meng should be careful in dealing with it. It would be even better if she could take the initiative!"

When Meng Guxue came to this point, she saw Baili Miaoxue smiling at her softly, and said with grievance and helplessness:

"Third sister-in-law, you are finally here. It is really not easy for Fourth Sister to see you now."

Meng Guxue's heart skipped a beat, and she secretly shouted: Here it comes! Brother Qiao is truly a god!

She did not move forward, but said with a straight face: "Fourth Princess, there is no need to act in front of me. You said there is news about Shen Yuanbai? Then tell me quickly."

Baili Miaoxue's face twisted for a moment when she heard that, but she soon put on a smile and walked forward step by step.

"Third sister-in-law, you can get news about Shen Yuanbai, but you have to exchange it for other conditions."

Meng Guxue tilted her head curiously and asked without any defense: "What are the conditions?"

Seeing that Meng Guxue was unaware, Baili Miaoxue couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy in her eyes.

She knew that Meng Guxue was a fool, and there must be something fishy going on as she fell into her trap!

"Third sister-in-law, Third Brother is going to be the king now. Please ask him to let me go on behalf of Fourth Sister. I——"

When Baili Miaoxue said this, she suddenly pounced over and turned her wrist to reveal the sharp fragment of the vase in her hand.

"Meng Guxue, give this to me——"

"Ah! Evil spirits, retreat! Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

Meng Guxue had been watching for an opportunity. When he saw Baili Miaoxue rushing towards him, he immediately raised his sleeves and a large amount of white medicine powder was sprinkled all over Baili Miaoxue's head!

"Imperial Concubine!"

Arya heard the exclamation from the palace and hurriedly kicked open the palace door. Unexpectedly, he saw his own imperial concubine waving her hands and shouting:

(╯°A°)╯Back, back, back!

As for the fourth princess, she swayed for a few times and then fell to the ground with a thud.

Arya, who was about to rush in, stopped silently.

Aja:?(???;)?

The dosage of this muscle softening powder is enough to knock out a whole shed of bulls, right?

Meng Guxue couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Baili Miaoxue lying on the ground, unable to even hold the fragments in her hands.

"Fourth sister, have you ever heard the saying, 'Where you fall, there you lie down!'"

"Look, this soft muscle powder really works every time on you!"

Meng Guxue swallowed an antidote as he spoke, then took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, then squatted down beside Baili Miaoxue.

Baili Miaoxue's expression was distorted. When she saw Meng Guxue approaching, she opened her mouth and cursed: "Meng Guxue, you are despicable!"

Meng Guxue's face suddenly turned cold when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice:

"I'm mean?"

"Then hiding the sharp weapon in your palm is not despicable? I saw that you were so ruthless just now, you were going for my face, right?"

"Fourth Princess, you should put yourself in the right place. You are a prisoner now and have no right to negotiate with me!"

"Tell me, what's the news about Shen Yuanbai?"
