Concubine Xue's face suddenly turned serious and she faintly smiled. She turned around to pay Xiao Yun's hand: "Yun Er, this matter, don't ask too much. Quickly go sleep."
Xiao Yun pouted: "Mother is hiding it from me too!"
"It's not that this mother wants to hide it from you but even if you know this matter, there's nothing beneficial to you." Concubine Xue lightly soothed her, finally soothing Xiao Yun to sleep.
The room was quiet and the faint incense spread across the air. The indistinct fragrance was able to float outside.
Huang Bei Yue tightly stared at Concubine Xue only to see that she was staring at the copper mirror. She pulled at a strand of her hair, coldly laughing: "Princess Zhang, if you become a ghost, don't blame it on me. If you want to blame something, blame it on your fate!"
Saying this, Concubine Xue stood up and extinguish the light. She went to bed and began to sleep.
Huang Bei Yue transferred the tiles back. The cold wind in night blew over and she only felt that the whole body was ice-cold to the bone. She silently went back to Rong Yue Xuan. Dong Ling was staring at her and raised her head to see that she didn't have a good look on her face. She called out in a low voice: "Young miss, what happened?"
Huang Bei Yue took off her black cloak and placed it in her space ring. She slightly shook her head. Sitting by the edge of the bed, she drank a cup of warm tea.
"Nothing. Dong Ling, you were more mature than me. Do you remember in the past if the mother had offended someone of incredible status? Or did she have any enemies?"
Dong Ling had no idea why she suddenly wanted to ask this and she felt it was secretly strange in her heart. However, since the young miss had asked, she had answered honestly.
"Princess Zhang was kindhearted and generous. The country's common people all love and respect her. Especially the other powerful countries within the Karte Mainland, like Bei Yao, Xi Rong, Dong Li, and other countries, towards Princess Zhang, they all praised her. Most of the powerful people on Karte Mainland all admire Princess Zhang's personality. If something went wrong with Princess Zhang, they would all naturally come to help. Dong Ling didn't hear that Princess Zhang had any enemies."
"Is that so?" Huang Bei Yue nodded her head. Princess Zhang's personality, that indeed had no other words to say. Even though she passed away for so many years, when the common people spoke of her, it was all of a thankful tone.
From her childhood memories, she didn't hear that Princess Zhang had offended anyone either.
Then what did Concubine Xue mean by the words today? Who was going to harm Princess Zhang?
This question kept on perplexing in Huang Bei Yue's mind. The entire night, she rolled back and forth, unable to sleep. The second day in the morning, she woke up with dark circles under her eyes.
The fire that started in the Princess Zhang's manor, Crown Prince Zhang Ye had given to Ting Wei Si to manage. Ting Wei Si didn't dare to neglect. Early morning, they had sent someone over.
Because this was Princess Zhang's manor, in the past this Ting Wei Geng Zhong was recommended to positions by Princess Zhang. This led him to take the seat of Ting Wei steadily. Otherwise, with Geng Zhong's honest and just attitude as well as his stubbornness, who knew how many times he would've offended the influential officials and be pulled down from his position!
Therefore, in the morning, Ting Wei Geng Zhong personally came as well. He came early to salute to Princess Bei Yue.
Although Xiao Yuan Cheng's heart was dissatisfied, he was unable to offend Geng Zhong. Therefore, he could only invite him over to the front hall, containing thoughtful etiquettes. He let him drink some tea and sent people to ask for Princess Bei Yue's presence.
The whole night, Huang Bei Yue didn't sleep well. The face, naturally, wasn't good looking. When she was held by Dong Ling out, the originally weak body seemed even paler and withered.
Xiao Yun's face brightened. In her heart, she secretly grinned. Mother's medicine, as expected, was powerful!
That Geng Zhong was a handsome man in his thirties. His face was serious and didn't smile. He was tall and with the temperament of a martial arts man. He had been in charge of the prison for many years.
