"Your sister is really smart. Let's go.”Nalan Baiqiong turned around and went to the princess's manor.
The guards couldn't stop His Majesty at all, so they could only report to Nalan Baiyao.
In the inner court, today happened to be the day Nalan Baiyao's henchmen came to discuss the recent abnormal events of Nalan Baiqiong. It was better to come at the right time than to come early. As soon as they entered the door, they were blocked by Nalan Baiqiong.
"Why is she here?" Nalan Baiyao, who had received the news, hurriedly asked the others to hide in the secret room while she went out to welcome Nalan Baiqiong. At the same time, she was wondering who had leaked the news.
In the front hall, Nalan Baiqiong held a teacup and sat at the head of the table, curiously sizing up Nalan Baiyao's room.
Nalan Baiqiong had a good reputation among the people. When the princess's manor was built, because of Nalan Baiqiong's opposition, it did not occupy a large area and did not use the best things. However, when word got out, the Second Princess personally wrote to the Emperor that everything should be simplified. She did not want to waste her life and money and played with a good fishing boat.
There was indeed no decoration in this room. Thinking of the countless large luminous pearls in his Asahi Palace, Nalan Baiqiong suddenly understood why the national treasury was empty.
"Long live Your Majesty." As soon as she entered, Nalan Baiyao immediately knelt down and bowed.
"Get up." Knowing that she hadn't given up on assassinating her, Nalan Baiqiong was a little angry and didn't help her up." I came here quietly today. You're my biological sister, so you don't have to be so nervous."”
Nalan Baiqiong had always called herself " sister " before, but today, it was " I ". Nalan Baiyao couldn't help but guess what she had discovered that led to her surprise attack today.
Hearing Nalan Baiqiong say that she came secretly, Nalan Baiyao's eyes flashed. She smiled and asked,""May I know why elder sister suddenly came to younger sister's residence?”
Nalan Baiqiong said helplessly," Isn't it because of your marriage? Mother asked Elder Sister to ask if you're ready. She should have asked you after the court session, but there were too many memorials and Elder Sister forgot about it. Mother only remembered this when she asked. Mother said that Elder Sister didn't care about you and rushed Elder Sister to ask.”
Nalan Baiyao didn't believe this. When had Tangxue ever cared about her marriage? If he was concerned, he would have made arrangements long ago. There was no need to wait for Nalan Baiqiong to mention it."Elder Sister can just summon Younger Sister into the palace, why did she come personally?”
The two of them looked at each other with a smile on their faces. They both wanted to see the guilt in each other's eyes.
"If I didn't come personally, how would mother believe that elder sister cares about Yaoyao? Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about Yaoyao's marriage.”
"Everything is ready." Nalan Baiyao's expression didn't change, but she was thinking about something else. What would happen if she captured Nalan Baiqiong here?
She only brought a few secret guards with her. Shen Yanxi was a difficult person to deal with, but she had just been injured some time ago.
However, the risk was also very high. There were still officials in her own residence. If a secret guard ran out and surrounded the princess's residence to search, they would not be able to escape if they rebelled. The country would be in chaos and the people would suffer. Nalan Baiyao did not want to bear the crime of treason.
Moreover, Nalan Baiqiong had always been cautious. How could he only bring a few people into his mansion? Could this be a bait, waiting to capture all the people in her residence?
"It's rare for you to leave the palace. Since Yaoyao's wedding is ready, why don't you accompany Elder Sister for a walk?”Nalan Baiqiong had already stood up and walked to Nalan Baiyao's side.
She was a little taller than Nalan Baiyao, and her every move was full of vigor.
"Elder Sister actually wanted to leave the palace, so she found this excuse to look for Younger Sister.”Nalan Baiyao took Nalan Baiqiong's hand and made up her mind.
Nalan Baiqiong naturally went along with it."Yao Yao understands me the best."
It was too risky. Moreover, Nalan Baiyao was looking for another opportunity to take down Nalan Baiqiong. News from the palace also confirmed Li Bing's guess. She wanted to see what this intimate sister was up to.
Nalan Baiqiong led Nalan Baiyao and went straight to a place. They ordered a table full of dishes. They had been craving for food for a long time. Today was a blessing in disguise.
"Yanxi, tell them to pick a few snacks and wrap them up. Later, when we return to the palace, send them to the Empress Dowager.”
Nalan Baiyao smiled." Sister is so good to mother. She's a loving mother and a filial son."”
"Yaoyao should also enter the palace more often to accompany mother. At mother's age, what she needs the most is the care of her children.”Nalan Baiqiong did not stop eating as he spoke, which made Shen Yanxi feel embarrassed. It was fine if His Majesty was like a whirlwind in the dining hall, but why didn't he pay attention in front of the Second Princess?
"I'll listen to you."
Nalan Baiyao didn't eat much during the meal, while Nalan Baiqiong ate so much that she couldn't even stand up. In front of the delicious food, she had long forgotten to pay attention to Nalan Baiyao. She even ignored Nalan Baiyao's gaze.
"Sister, you don't seem to be eating much. Is it not to your liking?”Nalan Baiqiong asked with concern.
Nalan Baiyao was also shocked by Nalan Baiqiong's reaction. Her mouth twitched and she couldn't help but complain,""Yes... Sister ate too much."
"Is there?" Of course, Nalan Baiqiong refused to admit it." I think it's alright. If I don't eat it now, it'll be too late when I lose all my teeth and can only smell it. If there's food to eat, eat quickly. Don't wait until you're powerless to eat.”
Nalan Baiyao held it in for a long time before she finally said,""Sister is right."
Nalan Baiqiong touched her belly happily and said,""It's getting late. Elder sister needs to go back early. Mother will be worried. Yao Yao should go back too. Elder sister looks like Yao Yao has a guest.”
Nalan Baiyao's expression became a little unstable as soon as he said this. She had rolled her eyes in her heart countless times, but she didn't expect the other party to say such terrifying words with a harmless smile.
She wanted to say something, but Nalan Baiqiong had already turned around and left, leaving Nalan Baiyao sitting alone in a daze for a long time.
When he left, the servant came up to him."Young miss, you haven't given me the silver.”
Since Nalan Baiqiong had left the palace quietly and could not be conspicuous, Nalan Baiyao did not bring the princess's manor's token. She also left in a hurry, and Nalan Baiqiong intentionally or unintentionally stopped her from bringing guards. At this moment, she was the only one in the restaurant. Nalan Baiyao naturally did not have the habit of bringing silver.
Although the manservant had no intention of looking down on her, Nalan Baiyao felt humiliated. She took out a jade pendant and threw it to the manservant."Go take a look at your boss."
The manservant went away submissively.
In fact, Nalan Baiqiong did not mean to insult Nalan Baiyao. He just felt that he had given Nalan Baiyao so many things. This silver was not something that came easily, so he naturally had to take some back.#
