It was late at night, and the sound of armor shaking could be heard from time to time in the quiet palace.
Due to the assassination that occurred the night before, the vigil in the palace has more than doubled tonight!
The well-ordered Royal Forest Army, holding their swords tightly, shuttled around the Ningshuang Palace, not daring to slack off at all!
Several figures sneaked into the palace quietly. They pressed against the wall and moved cautiously, fearing that they would startle the patrolling Imperial Guards!
The figure seemed to be very familiar with Ningshuang Palace. After a while, he touched the gate of Ningshuang Palace!
In the darkness, they seemed not to notice that there were a few pairs of eyes on a high platform not far away, staring at them without blinking!
"I thought she was going to find Mrs. Xin first! I didn't expect that Mrs. Xin's life would only end like this!"
The girl sitting on the high platform was peeling the peanuts in her hands, chatting with the people around her.
At the girl's feet, there were peanut shells all over the ground.
"Why didn't I realize before that you love peanuts so much?"
The boy handed her another handful of peanuts and said with a smile. There is an unconcealable affection in his words.
"It's not that I like to eat much, I just... use it for entertainment when I'm bored!"
The girl waved her hands, shrugged, and said indifferently.
The young man raised his eyebrows, noncommittal. The movements of his hands never stopped for a moment.
"Inside!"
The girl stared at the entrance of Ningshuang Palace not far away and reminded softly.
Hearing this, several people on the high platform suddenly became vigilant! They stared at Ningshuang Palace, for fear of missing something!
Not long after, the sound of fighting came from the Ningshuang Palace!
"Your Majesty, please stay here and be safe! Let's go take a look first!"
The girl ordered Xin Wan Ning. Then, she pulled Yun Qi and ran towards Ningshuang Palace without looking back!
There are peanut shells lying on the ground, and when you step on them, they click and become crispy.
In the Ningshuang Palace, several black shadows have long been fighting fiercely with the imperial guards in the palace! Everyone was coming and going, making Hao Haoer's Ningshuang Palace a mess!
"Sanniang Yan, if you continue to refuse to stop, Mrs. Xin's life will be decided here today!"
Bai Yanqing shouted loudly to the masked man in the hall. As she shouted, the masked men fighting in front of her involuntarily slowed down their swords.
Seeing this, Bai Yanqing quickly pushed Xin Wanrong beside her out.
Xin Wanrong was injured last night and was currently dazed and dizzy. She was forcefully pulled over by Bai Yanqing! At this moment, Bai Yanqing pushed him, and he staggered and almost fell! Fortunately, the masked man, with quick eyes and quick hands, flew forward and held her firmly!
"Rong'er! Rong'er! How are you?"
The masked woman's voice was urgent, and she did seem a bit worried.
Xin Wanrong may have guessed the identity of the masked man. She shook her head at the masked man and signaled to her that she was fine. The masked man breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, why don't you guys put on such a drama about the deep love between mother and daughter here?"
Bai Yanqing clapped her hands, dusted off the remaining bits of peanut skin on her body, and said impatiently.
Seeing this, the masked woman suddenly winked at her accomplices around her! The few people who received her signal immediately drew their swords and attacked Bai Yanqing!
Seeing this situation, Bai Yanqing didn't show any panic at all! I saw her calmly taking out a handful of peeled peanuts from her sleeves, then bending down and bending her knees, she sprinkled the handful of peanuts directly towards those people!
Those few people were not anxious to dodge for a moment, stepped on peanuts under their feet, and fell backwards one after another!
There were several muffled sounds in succession, and when he looked again, the masked assassins all fell to the ground!
"It's a pity that such good peanuts have been trampled to pieces by you! I peeled them for a long time! What a waste!"
Bai Yanqing knelt down, reached out and twirled the crushed peanuts on the ground, and kept mouthing
It speaks of pity.
When the masked woman saw her man being knocked down to the ground by just a few peanuts, she felt anxious, angry and annoyed!
"Witch! Look at the sword!"
The masked woman drew her sword and attacked Bai Yanqing. Bai Yanqing raised her eyebrows and dodged slightly, successfully avoiding her sword!
The masked woman was Lian Jiazi after all. She was agile, turned around, flipped her wrist, and once again pointed the tip of the sword directly at Bai Yanqing's throat!
Bai Yanqing didn't panic at all. She turned slightly sideways and reached out to pull out the sword hairpin from her bun. With a slight twist and throw, an undetectable thread wrapped around the masked woman's wrist!
Bai Yanqing pulled and pulled so easily, and there was a "clang" sound, and the sharp sword in the masked woman's hand fell to the ground in an instant!
"you!"
The masked woman saw that the situation was over, but her eyes were still full of reluctance!
"Someone, tie her up! Wait for the Queen Mother to be punished!"
Cai Xing summoned the Royal Forest Army at the right time and took down the masked woman. By the way... he also tied up the masked man lying on the ground!
Bai Yanqing carefully collected her hairpin and inserted it into her bun again. The movements were crisp and neat, without any sloppiness. Yun Qi on the side was simply stunned!
"Madam! You... are simply amazing!"
Throughout the night, Yunqi didn't even need to take action! How could Yunqi not be shocked by this!
"Then thank you, Your Highness, for giving me such a precious object!"
Bai Yanqing raised her eyebrows at Yun Qi, with a look of pride in her eyes that couldn't be concealed!
Yunqi was surprised not by anything else, but that in just a few days, Bai Yanqing was able to play with this sword hairpin so smoothly! It can be seen that Bai Yanqing has some talents in this!
After struggling for most of the night, I finally caught so many people! I originally thought that Xin Wan Ning wanted to interrogate them overnight, but unexpectedly, Xin Wan Ning postponed the matter to the next day on the grounds that she was feeling unwell and needed to rest!
"Your Majesty, is it possible that she is out of her mind? Why don't you interrogate them while the iron is hot? Instead of interrogating them, keep them in jail and let them slowly make up stories?"
Not only Bai Yanqing didn't understand Xin Wan Ning's actions, but Cai Xing and Xi Yue couldn't understand either!
Everyone was caught, but they were not tried! This is really puzzling!
"Perhaps she has her own considerations!"
Yun Qi can somewhat understand it, presumably Xin Wan Ning is also in a difficult situation at this moment!
Bai Yanqing pursed her lips and was noncommittal.
Forget it, it's not her own family business, so she doesn't want to worry about it! The interrogation one day earlier and one day later has nothing to do with Bai Yanqing!
The next day.
Under Xi Yue and Cai Xing's urging, Xin Wan Ning finally reluctantly led everyone to the sky prison to interrogate the masked man!
"Why do I feel...that Her Majesty the Queen doesn't really want to find out the truth?"
Bai Yanqing turned Yunqi around and whispered.
Yunqi raised his eyebrows slightly and did not answer. .
Inside the prison.
The masked people from last night had already taken off their black masks, revealing their true faces.
As expected, the only woman among them was Aunt Yan from Chu Aotian's house!
"Sanniang Yan, I haven't seen you for many years, but you still haven't changed much!"
Xin Wan Ning looked at the leading woman and said with a smile.
"Hmph! Stop being so hypocritical! Kill or behead me, it's up to you!"
The woman known as "Yan Sanniang" held her head high, looking quite rebellious.
Xin Wan Ning sighed and had someone push Xin Wan Rong out.
Xin Wanrong's injuries were not serious, but she was hit in the head and was a little dazed!
After seeing Xin Wanrong, Yan Sanniang's expression relaxed!
"Rong'er!"
Yan Sanniang called softly.
Xin Wanrong raised her head slightly and glanced at Yan Sanniang. mouth
Zhang Zhanghehe, in the end, still couldn't shout anything!
"Yan Sanniang, after so many years, I thought you had given up long ago! I spared you mother and daughter during the palace incident more than ten years ago. I thought you would change your minds and no longer dwell on the past! But! you……"
Xin Wan Ning has an attitude of hating iron for not being able to become steel!
The palace change more than ten years ago?
Bai Yanqing and Yun Qi looked at each other! Sure enough, the palace change more than ten years ago was not that simple! It turns out that Yan Sanniang’s role is also involved!
No wonder Bai Yanqing felt that something was not right last time when Yan Sanniang and Xin Wanrong made a big fuss in the tea shop! Now that I hear it, some things make sense!
Xin Wanrong doesn't know martial arts, so the person who held Xin Wanning's mother and daughter hostage could never be Xin Wanrong! Now it seems that the person who held Xin Wan Ning's mother and daughter hostage was Yan Sanniang!
"When is the time to retaliate! My mother and father have long since returned to ashes and dust to dust! Now, you are still chasing after my daughter! If you hadn't had murderous intentions towards Yue'er and Xing'er , I originally didn’t want to touch you!”
Seeing that Yan Sanniang still refused to speak, Xin Wan Ning spoke earnestly again.
Seeing Xin Wan Ning being so indecisive, Bai Yanqing really couldn't stand it anymore!
"Not only did she send assassins to kill the two empresses a few days ago! We were hunted down from Chen Kingdom to Xingyue Kingdom. It must have been her handiwork! If I guessed correctly , the person who spread the false news to lure Cai Xing back to the country was also Yan Sanniang, right?"
Bai Yanqing couldn't care about that and spoke directly.
Hearing this, Yan Sanniang finally raised her head and glanced at Bai Yanqing!
"Don't be surprised. I know much more than you want us to know! Another example is Dr. Hua Wen Yuanhua. The poison in his body was also poisoned by Yan Sanniang, right? "
Bai Yanqing twirled the crushed peanuts on her fingertips, chuckled and continued.
"Hahahahaha...you little girl, you know quite a lot!"
Yan Sanniang finally spoke. She looked at Bai Yanqing with resentment and admiration in her eyes.
"I know...there's more than this..."
Bai Yanqing seemed to casually crush the peanuts on her fingertips into powder, and then blew it casually. The powder soon spread out and disappeared.
"What? She also poisoned Wen Yuan? Why didn't Wen Yuan say anything before?"
Xin Wan Ning frowned, her eyes full of shock!
"Your Majesty, you are too kind to a woman!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Xin Wan Ning faintly, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes. She could tell that Xin Wan Ning had not yet decided to kill Xin Wan Rong and Yan Sanniang!
Bai Yanqing's words made Xin Wan Ning silent again. Indeed, Xin Wan Ning has always cared about her blood relationship and has been unwilling to deal with Yan Sanniang and Xin Wan Rong's mother and daughter!
"Since I accompanied Caixing back to the Star-Moon Kingdom, I will not let any trace of danger remain around her again!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at everyone present with piercing eyes! Then, when everyone was confused, she pulled Cai Xing and left without looking back!
What does it mean?
Bai Yanqing... just... left?
But then, within a few moments, Yan Sanniang and Xin Wanrong let out heart-rending wails!
"Yan Sanniang? Wan Rong? What's going on?! Come on, call the doctor! Call the doctor quickly!"
Xin Wan Ning's roar came from behind!
Bai Yanqing smiled! She lowered her head and looked at the traces of peanut crumbs remaining on her fingertips. She gently raised her finger and flicked it!
Who knew that mother and daughter Yan Sanniang and Xin Wanrong would be allergic to peanuts?
Bai Yanqing doesn't even need to poison herself, she just crushes a few peanuts and throws the peanut powder away! As long as Yan Sanniang and her daughter inhale peanut powder, they will have shortness of breath and can't breathe!
As for the imperial physician...
This Tianlao was so far away from the imperial hospital. When the imperial doctor arrived, Yan Sanniang and her daughter were almost completely cold.
Got it!
"Sister, did you poison them?"
It's not like Caixing didn't hear the wailing coming from behind!
"No!"
Bai Yanqing shook her head, spread her hands, and denied directly.
Since Xin Wan Ning can't be cruel, then she should be the evil one herself! Anyway...Bai Yanqing will not let Cai Xing take risks!
