I Conquer the World For My Duke - C89
“Shut up!” The veins on Feng Jingye’s forehead stood on end as he roared hysterically.
Prime Minister Chu felt his legs go weak, his vision went black, while Qin Mu rolled his eyes and fainted.
The Mansion of Jing Zhao Yin was in a complete mess, he pulled up a chair and helped Prime Minister Chu and Qin Mu to sit.
Bai Zheng maintained her crawling posture, and said while trembling: “Your Highness, forgive me! This subject’s daughter, this subject’s daughter knows that she shouldn’t speak carelessly. When Young Master Chu says these words, this subject’s daughter is also very afraid … Young Master Chu saw that her daughter did not listen to her words, and became angry from embarrassment. She picked up the poison wine, and insisted on infusing her with a woman … ”
“Young Master Chu wants to kill you with poison?” Feng Jingxuan supported them with his competence.
Bai Zheng nodded her head like she was hitting garlic, “Young Master Chu said that due to many years of love, he had left her with a corpse. She has her hands and feet tied up, unable to move, so she was forced by Young Master Chu to drink half a cup of wine.
“What!?” Zheng, you were poisoned? ” As her father, Bai Yinan immediately caught on to the main point of Bai Zheng’s words.
Yesterday, not long after he returned from the General Mansion, Bai Yinan received a message from Feng Linyuan’s men, saying that he had been rescued, and that he would first go to Song Jin’s courtyard to discuss some matters, and then return home at a later time.
As for the matter with the officials, we can discuss about it after Bai Zheng returns home.
He didn’t expect that Bai Yinan would keep waiting until deep into the night, and when he received news that Bai Zheng had not returned to his residence that day, he said that he had something to delay, and that it would be inconvenient to return after locking the city gates, so he could only act tomorrow morning.
Although Bai Yinan followed Bai Zheng’s instructions for all the following actions, he had indeed not been able to figure out the reason behind Bai Zheng’s delay of one night.
From the looks of it, it was all because of the poison?
Bai Yinan’s heart immediately ached. No wonder her daughter kept on crying when she saw him just now.
“Zheng, how is your body? Does the poison have an antidote? Bai Yinan’s questions came one after another.
Bai Zheng felt a burst of guilt. She should have told his father about this earlier, since it could only cause him to worry for his father.
She raised her head and laughed at Bai Yinan, “Father, don’t worry. After the Marquis saved me yesterday, when he saw that the poison in me was still shallow, he immediately sent me to An Guo Temple nearby. Fortunately, An Guo’s Master Jing Yuan had great medical skills and had cured my poison, but after the poison had left me in a coma, I had no choice but to stay in An Guo Temple for the night before returning home early in the morning.”
Hearing these words, Feng Jingxuan could not help but sneer in his heart.
She was curious, why would Bai Zheng, in order to break Chu Family, be willing to pay such a debt and spend an entire night without returning?
However, with her explanation, there was no longer any problem with her reputation.
The reason he hadn’t returned for one night was because he had been poisoned, and it wasn’t a single man and woman being placed in the Mansion of Dingyuan Marquis for detoxification, but rather in An Guo Temple.
Although the An Guo Temple was a temple, because of the Buddha statue being examined, royal relatives and nobles often went to burn incense and worship the Buddha. Even high ranking officials and female family members would occasionally stay for a few days for the sake of a petition.
Therefore, An Guoguo Temple had set up a courtyard for the nobles to live in.
For a young miss who had yet to leave the pavilion, even if she was not sick, staying an entire night at An Guo Temple was nothing. Furthermore, Bai Zheng had even gotten poisoned?
As to whether or not she had actually gone to An Guo Temple, or whether or not Master Jing Yuan had saved her, Feng Jingxuan felt that there was nothing much to worry about.
Since Bai Zheng dared to say those words on the stage, she must have made sufficient preparations.
“I never thought that the Young Master Chu would actually go out like that. After all, the Miss Bai is the future Madam Hou that the Royal Father has decided on. Killing her without permission, I’m afraid that even the Chu Family will not be able to protect her this time.”
Feng Jingxuan sighed with regret.
“Bullsh * t!” Although Prime Minister Chu was old, and it concerned his most beloved son, as well as the safety of his entire Chu Family, he couldn’t help but feel provoked at the moment.
However, after resting for a moment and regaining his rationality, he had immersed himself in government affairs for many years, allowing him to quickly understand the current situation.
He could tell that the person in front of him had clearly come prepared, and her goal wasn’t just Chu Feng, but the entire Chu Family.
He sneered, “Now that you have Feng Er, we won’t be able to find him. Feng Er is not here, so you can say whatever you want, even if you want to frame us, we can’t do anything to you.
Miss Bai is truly a good idea, this old man finally knows why Feng’er looked down on you back then, and decided to break the engagement with you no matter what. This kind of scheming girl, my Chu Family cannot afford to offend! ”
Bai Zheng said firmly on the surface, “Prime Minister cannot accept this at the moment, I understand. If I hadn’t heard Young Master Chu’s words with my own ears, I wouldn’t dare believe that the Young Noble Wandering, whom I had yearned for back then, was actually a sinister and unscrupulous villain. ”
“It looks like Miss Bai is determined to splash this dirty water on Chu Family?” Prime Minister Chu stared at Bai Zheng coldly.
Bai Zheng was about to reply, but seeing that her own daughter was still being framed after being poisoned, Bai Yinan who was already burning with anger shouted.
“Prime Minister! The guards at Bai Mansion have been beaten up by the Chu Family to the point where they are still lying on the bed without being able to get up.
“Your Bai Mansion doesn’t have this ability, but don’t you have the General Mansion behind you?” Feng Jingye squinted.
Hearing the three words “General Mansion”, Bai Yinan felt a chill in his heart.
This big brother, after hearing that he came to abduct Bai Zheng, directly shut his doors to thank, and didn’t even let him meet him.
He laughed bitterly, “After everything that has happened, this old subject did indeed go to the General Mansion to look for Big Brother. However, Big Brother has no time to bother with trivial matters. “Your majesty.”
He looked straight at Feng Jingye, and asked: “If the General Mansion does not appear, and only relies on my Bai Mansion and those people, can they snatch away the Young Master Chu?”
Feng Jingye was speechless for a moment, he did not know how to reply.
On the other hand, Prime Minister Chu asked: “Where is your Mansion of Dingyuan Marquis? Isn’t it the Miss Bai who came here to save them? ”
Bai Zheng lowered her eyes. “Master Hou came in a hurry, but Young Master Chu’s mansion is filled with traps and has plenty of manpower. Master Hou has only barely been able to save this subject and is also in a hurry to send this subject to the doctor.
Prime Minister Chu caressed his sleeves and snorted: “How can you believe a one-sided word? “You said that Master Hou didn’t do anything to Feng Er, do you have any evidence?”
Bai Zheng straightened her back, neither servile nor overbearing, and said: “I am indeed unable to produce any evidence. Only, I believe that the person sent by Mansion of Jing Zhao Yin will definitely be able to find the Young Master Chu, and at that time, we will naturally wash clean Bai Zheng’s … ”
“Young Master Chu found it!”
As if they were trying to prove what Bai Zheng had just said, a soldier hurried in from the outside and shouted excitedly, “Master, the Young Master Chu has found him!”
