On the other hand, Li Yi had been eating until it was time for dinner before going to eat with a few other familiar servant girls in the residence.
There was a lively girl called Ji Tao who had a baby-faced youth, but she was not about the same age as the others. As soon as Li Wen knew that Ji Tao liked to talk, he sat down with her.
Not long after they sat down, Ji Tao started to ask Li Yi, “Sis Li Yi, didn’t you always eat with them in the Lady’s yard?” Why did he suddenly come out today?
Ji Tao was a person in the kitchen, so she clearly said that they were cooking in her yard. She was curious to see how much Li Yi was doing.
“Don’t mention it…” When Li Yu heard this, he pretended to be helpless and sighed.
“What’s wrong with this?” Could it be something wrong? The few people around started to be curious.
Li quickly shook her head and said with a smile, “What are you saying? Our lady is so good-tempered!” There was no one in the yard who spoke to me. It was too boring.
Everyone naturally knew the character of whispering softly, so they nodded their heads. When Li Wen saw that it was about time, he asked, “Quickly tell me if there’s anything new about this residence recently. Please help me relieve the boredom.”
The others thought about it and didn’t come to a conclusion. On the other hand, Ji Tao tilted her head and said, “There’s nothing new in the residence recently. There’s really something strange about this.”
Li Zhicheng glanced at the bead and didn’t continue to ask. The others were curious to ask what was it?
Ji Tao mysteriously let a few people get closer, then whispered, “You should all know that Imperial Counsellor Bai has been having some conflicts with our husband, but a while ago, the Bai family suddenly sent people over.”
While everyone was still confused, Li Wen pretended not to care at all. pay no heed to said, “What’s so strange about this? Besides, our husband should be older than Imperial Counsellor Bai. He probably wants to beg for peace.”
When Ji Tao heard this, the expression on her face became even more mysterious. She shook her head and said, “Sis Li Yi, you’re wrong. Although it’s someone sent by the Bai family, it’s someone sent by the Bai family’s second sister. You should go find our second daughter.”
The other people were dizzy from Ji Tao’s words. Li Wen suddenly understood. Snow Ying came up with a frost, and then today her young lady met with danger as soon as she went out. There shouldn’t be such a coincidence in the world, right?
“Can you know this?” Didn’t you stay in the kitchen all day long? Don’t tell me nonsense, “Li Xiu took another sip of rice and pouted in disbelief.
When Ji Tao heard that she was being suspected, she suddenly became anxious and said angrily, “Don’t believe me. I saw it with my own eyes. When I gave some pastries to Second Miss, she was still there!”
Li thought for a moment, then smiled and said, “Don’t worry, it’s my fault, isn’t it okay?” Then, did you hear what they were talking about?
Ji Tao thought about it for a while before shaking her head. “After I entered, they didn’t say anything, but I heard ‘notification’ at the door before.”
Li knew that even if he was asking, he wouldn’t be able to achieve anything. Besides, it was enough to have such an effect. After dinner, he wandered around the residence for a while, then returned to the yard and reported to his young lady.
After reporting the information he had asked about during dinner, Li Wen continued, “When I was wandering around the residence in the afternoon, I heard people say that a little girl in the Second Young Lady’s yard has been wandering around our courtyard recently, but we’ve never seen her before.”
Yan Ling nodded and said, “Looks like things are indeed as I guessed. Most likely, someone followed us as soon as we left.”
Li Yi said anxiously, “Then what should we do? Do you want us to pull her out?”
Yan Ling shook his head and said, “This is just our speculation. There is no actual evidence. No one will admit their debt. This is just a beat the grass and scare the snake.”
“What do you plan to do then?” When she saw Yan Ling’s have a well-thought-out plan, she guessed something.
Sure enough, the corners of his lips curved into a smile, then he said casually, “Since we have people watch over us, how can we let them return without any effort?” He should cooperate more.
A few days later, Snow Ying received the news from Yan Shuang. She only said that Yan Ling was going to prepare a birthday gift for Zhaoyan and went out on her own.
Bai Xueying felt that something was wrong. She frowned and asked, “Can you be sure that Ling went out alone?” What happened a few days ago… She should be a little worried about it… ”
Looking at Snow Ying’s hesitation, Yan Shuang frowned and said, “What do you mean by that? Can I still lie to you? Even God is helping us to make that woman look for death. What are you hesitating about?”
Bai Xueying didn’t get irritated by what Yan Shuang said. She frowned slightly discontentedly and explained, “I need to know the exact situation and then decided to send someone. Didn’t I fail the last time because I ignored the boy who came out of nowhere?”
Yan Shuang calmed down a little, but then she said disdainfully, “Even a child can’t do anything about it. I wonder what the people under your hands are?” This time, His Highness the Prince was not around. Even if the woman had someone with her, she was just a motley crew. Wouldn’t you send some more people?
Bai Xueying still seemed to be hesitant, but she was reluctant to give up such a good opportunity. After thinking for a while, she eventually gritted her teeth and agreed.
Last time, because of Liang He and Nan Yan, not only did Snow Ying fail to assassinate her, she also lost several people under her hands. This time, Snow Ying naturally didn’t dare to be careless anymore. She sent out most of the people she had cultivated, hoping to kill with one blow.
However, Snow Ying’s so-called ambition was determined but in the end, it became an empty draw water with a bamboo basket. No one came back.
When Snow Ying noticed that something was wrong and sent someone out to inquire about it, she realized that her people had been following her. When she found the right time to start, she was surrounded by a large group of people the moment she appeared.
When someone was not afraid of death, they forcefully broke through many obstacles and rushed to Yan Ling, but found that no one seemed to notice it. When that person noticed something was wrong, the knife in Yan Ling’s hand had already been sent to his chest.
After everything was over, everyone watched as “Yan Ling” raised his hand and tore a human skin off his face, revealing another beautiful face.
It turned out that this ‘Yan Ling’ was just a person with similar body shape. All of this was a trap.
