Chapter 1539 Internal Fighting

Bai Jintong sighed. She had spent so much effort and money arranging the chess pieces next to the Queen Mother of Yan, but she didn't know whether they were dead or alive now.

Just as the carriage swayed and turned into a famous alley in Nanchang, a shivering figure hiding in the dark saw clearly the word Cui on the carriage lantern and rushed out immediately.

But before he even got close, he was stopped by the accompanying guards who drew their swords...

Meng Zhaorong was startled, and his face under the hood was pale.

She looked at the carriage driving Xuezi and was about to pass in front of her. She opened her eyes wide and ignored the cold blade in front of her. She stepped forward and whispered: "Gong Xing! Gong Xing! Gong Xing is me! Gong Xing..." I’m Zhao Rong!”

The Meng family has fallen, and Mrs. Meng paid a huge price to let her escape. She told her to remain anonymous from now on, and must forget that she was the daughter of Meng Shangshu. It would be good if she could live in this life, otherwise she would be with Meng. Madam, they left together, they would inevitably have to get close to the Jiaofang Department, and their lives would be over.

On the night she sent Meng Zhaorong away, Mrs. Meng put Meng Zhaorong's personal maid into Meng Zhaorong's clothes and strangled her to death in prison. After watching the remaining female members of the Meng family drown themselves, she also let go.

The frightened Meng Zhaorong heard the news of her mother's suicide, and her liver and gallbladder were split. She didn't know where to go... She could only think of Cui Fengnian, who had desperately helped her, and wanted to be protected by Cui Fengnian.

Inside the carriage, Bai Jintong heard Meng Zhaorong's suppressed voice and did not dare to shout loudly. She opened her eyes. She did not stop the carriage. She only used her fingers to gently open a gap in the carriage curtains. She vaguely saw Meng Zhaorong trying to catch up with the carriage but was trying to catch up. He was also afraid of the cowering look of the guards, so he quietly lowered the curtain, pretending not to hear anything, and only gently held the red gold hand stove with carved plum blossoms in his hand.

Bai Jinzhi admits that he is not a hard-hearted person, but even benevolence and righteousness... cannot be used in the wrong place.

Seeing the Cui family's carriage going further and further away, Meng Zhaorong still wanted to chase it, but he heard the Cui family's guard yelling loudly: "Girl, if you keep pestering me, we will have to send you to see the official!"

When he heard the word "meet the official", Meng Zhaorong's expression was more frightening than seeing a ghost. He turned around and staggered away.

Bai Jintong rode the carriage all the way back to Cui's Mansion. When she got out of the carriage, she saw Danzhi and her maid standing outside the main door, waiting for her, smiling and saluting him.

"My husband is back..." Danzhi's voice was soft and melodious. She handed the hand stove in her hand to the maid, took the oil umbrella from the maid's hand, held the hem of her skirt in one hand, and held the umbrella in the other hand to welcome Bai Jinxiu who got off the carriage.

There are lanterns hung up for the New Year at the door of Cui Mansion. The red light makes the front door of Cui Mansion extremely festive. Danzhi wears a homely bun and a pomegranate red silk jacket with gold sprinkles. The clothes look ordinary, but the buckle is Decorated with lustrous pearls of the same size, they perfectly complemented the earrings on her ears, making her look like the official family members of an official.

"Didn't I tell you that I would come back late tonight and let you rest early..." Bai Jinxiu took the umbrella from Danzhi and wrapped her in her cloak, acting like a wealthy man who loves me. .

"This is what I should do!" Danzhi's ears turned red and she said in a soft voice, as if she was shy.

Protecting Danzhi back to the upper room, while Danzhi was waiting for Bai Jinxiu to take a bath, news came from outside, saying that the Queen Mother had come out of the palace to go to the palace. Many royal relatives of the Murong clan heard the news and personally Went to see off the Queen Mother.

Bai Jinxiu was sitting in a bathtub filled with mist, and the messenger was right outside the door.

Originally, the Queen Mother of Yan State should have been sent to the palace after she was singled out by the regent for drugging the emperor with Meng Shangshu. At that time, it was the elders of the Murong royal family who came forward to ask the emperor to calm down and let her go. The Queen Mother will spend the New Year in the palace before leaving.

Now that this year has passed and the Queen Mother is leaving... Murong's royal family members knew that the Queen Mother had made a big mistake like drugging the emperor, and someone actually blocked the Queen Mother's carriage. I don't know what the Queen Mother said to Murong's royal family members. What, some of them went into the palace together to see the emperor, and some of them accompanied the emperor outside the palace gate.

"The Queen Mother of Yan is considered a powerful figure. She still has such a status in the Murong royal family. She obviously knows that the Queen Mother was sent to the palace by the emperor to be placed under house arrest, but she still dares to rely on her old age to stop the Queen Mother of Yan!" Bai Jinxiu put her hand on the bathtub, "I don't know, can you think of a way to find out what the Queen Mother and the elders of the Murong Royal Family said?"

"I ordered someone to try it!"

"Be careful. Our Cui Mansion is being watched closely now. Don't expose the Cui Mansion." Bai Jintong said.

Today's Cui Mansion is being watched very closely, even if his brother-in-law...the regent of Yan State is not in Yan Capital.

Even the news that the Queen Mother was leaving today came because Bai Jintong was attending a friend's banquet in Yandu tonight, and her people pretended to be servants in the friend's house to deliver Bai Jintong's jade pendant.

·

Empress Dowager Yan braved the wind and snow to leave for the palace under the protection of the imperial army, which caused huge waves among the Murong royal family. The Murong royal family did not understand why Murong Li was so cruel and cruel to his mother after he ascended the throne and became emperor. It's snowy, can't we wait until tomorrow to send the Queen Mother away?

Therefore, in order to show their status as elders in the clan and to show that they were the emperor's elders, the elders of Murong's royal family entered the palace overnight. Taking advantage of Xiao Rongyan's absence, they relied on their elders and filial piety to force Murong Li not to send the Queen Mother to the palace.

Although the regent of the Yan State was from the Murong royal family, he was not as soft-hearted as Murong Yu. Xiao Rongyan did not let Murong Li get involved in offending the royal family members. Instead, he went ahead to rectify the Murong royal family members and hide Murong Li away. behind.

Initially, Xiao Rongyan helped Xiao Ali ascend the throne, but when there was trouble with a clan elder, Xiao Rongyan, as regent, drove him back to the old capital of the Yan Kingdom, Liyi. Anyone who disobeyed his orders was killed by Xiao Rongyan's entire family. , showed no mercy, so everyone in the royal family was more afraid of Xiao Rongyan, so they restrained their minions in front of Xiao Rongyan, and behaved like a cat without claws.

In the past, when Xiao Rongyan was here, these members of the Murong royal family were very obedient. They would do whatever Xiao Rongyan said, with a completely frightened and frightened attitude of obeying Murong Yan's orders.

It was Xiao Rongyan who saw that the people in the clan gradually became docile. In addition, although the members of the Murong royal family had always fought internally, they were always united in an unprecedented way when they were really external. For example... when the Yan Kingdom was in the most difficult time, Members of the Murong royal family donated their wealth one after another and no one kept anything private.
