Phoenix Reborn: the Prime Minister's Scheming Daughter
Baili Junyi poked Nurse Wei’s acupuncture points to freeze her up, warned her not to make a sound, and quickly walked to the door of the room and opened a small gap. Indeed, he saw two eunuchs carrying a man outside. He reached out and dragged the person in.
The eunuchs wanted to follow him in, but the door was slammed shut. The two of them were already a little scared. When they saw Nurse Wei act like this, they immediately felt a little unfair. They glared at the door and cursed in their hearts, “Humph, that old fart does this because she doesn’t want us to claim our credit from Noble Consort. Just wait and see. When we succeed one day, we’ll rip her heart out and feed the dogs!”
When there was no movement at the door of the room, Baili Junyi told Qing Que to secretly watch over the two eunuchs. Then, he reached out and untied the sack. After seeing the person inside, he coldly curled his lips. “It really is Baili Jinchuan. Hah, I really didn’t expect that he would be schemed like this!”
When Nurse Wei heard the movement at the door, her eyes lit up slightly. She hoped that the eunuchs outside could find that something was wrong here and rescue her. Unexpectedly, the two stupid eunuchs left after delivering the person. Idiot! Why didn’t they check and see who was inside?!
Baili Junyi turned around and saw Nurse Wei’s expression. A mocking smile appeared on his face. “What? Do you expect those two fools to save you? Hmph! it’s fortunate that they didn’t come in, or we will have two more corpses.”
Nurse Wei’s eyes widened in horror, and she hurriedly restrained her expression after hearing his words. How come she forgot that Baili Junyi was infamously known as the God of Slaughter in the imperial court? After making countless enemies, he was still standing strong.
However, it was too late to regret it now. She only hoped that Her Grace’s scheme would work and save her life.
Shen Ninghua stood up and walked to Baili Junyi’s side. When he saw Baili Jinchuan lying on the ground, she frowned slightly. “Second Prince, there is no need to pretend to be asleep at this time, right?”
Baili Jinchuan, who was “unconscious” on the ground, opened his eyes. He glanced around and finally looked at Nurse Wei. “Your Master is so daring to scheme against two princes at once. Isn’t she afraid of the consequences?”
Nurse Wei widened her eyes in surprise. She never thought that Baili Jinchuan would actually pretend to be unconscious. What did those two eunuchs do? They didn’t even notice this? She felt a little despair in her heart. What should she do? What should she do at this time?
Baili Junyi looked at Baili Jinchuan coldly. A cold light flashed in his eyes. “It seems that Second Royal Brother does have some ability.”
“If I can’t even avoid this little bit of scheme, what else can I do to fight for what I want?” Baili Jinchuan looked at him coldly, and then his gaze fell on Shen Ninghua.
Baili Junyi sneered, “It’s not good to covet other people’s treasure. If you can’t change the habit yourself, I can help you.”
Baili Jinchuan was expressionless. “You should worry about yourself. It won’t be long before Noble Consort Li brings Father Emperor here. When he sees the situation in the room… Humph…”
“You don’t have to worry about it, Second Royal Brother. It’s better for you to worry about yourself. Now that you have no martial arts skills, can you return to your palace safely? If not, I will send you back.”
“Don’t worry!” Baili Jinchuan looked at Shen Ninghua, then turned and jumped out of the window.
Soon, someone approached again. A Shadow Guard, dressed in black, approached the window like a shadow. He threw a person into the room and quickly left.
Baili Junyi went forward and looked at the unconscious person. A sneer flashed across his lips. Ninghua was his precious treasure. Since Noble Consort Li dared to plot against her, he had to give her a taste of her own medicine. He would also rip her heart out!
After everything was settled, Baili Junyi walked to Nurse Wei. “What is the signal you and Noble Consort Li used?”
Nurse Wei stared blankly as Baili Junyi arranged everything. Her face was as pale as a ghost. She was completely doomed. “No, we don’t have any signal. Later, Her Grace will bring people over… Your Highness, Princess Zhaohua, I’m willing to cooperate with you. Please spare my family.”
She would die sooner or later. Once she died, Noble Consort Li would definitely vent her anger on her family. She couldn’t be bothered with her own death, but her children were innocent. She could not implicate them.
Shen Ninghua glanced at her. “You are wise. Work with me well, and I can guarantee your children’s safety. You should know that I’m not a kind person either. If you dare to betray me, I won’t leave any troubles behind even if Noble Consort Li decides to spare your family.”
“Your Highness, don’t worry. I will definitely not betray you. Please tell me what I should do and say.”
“Okay, just wait.”
In the main hall of Changqiu Palace, Noble Consort Li was lying on the bed. Listening to the rain outside, she felt that time was passing very slowly. Finally, she heard the rustling sound of panic. She suddenly opened her eyes, and an exciting light flashed in her eyes. After tonight, the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince would no longer be a threat to her!
She moved slightly as if she wanted to get up from the bed, but she accidentally bumped into Baili Qingcang. “Oh, Your Majesty, I’m sorry for bumping into you. Please go back to sleep.”
“It’s midnight now, right? Why did you get up?”
“I heard a commotion outside. I’m worried something happened, so I got up to take a look.”
Just as she finished speaking, a palace maid’s voice came from outside. “Noble Consort, Noble Consort…” The palace maid’s voice was extremely terrified, as if she was afraid of waking Baili Qingcang up.
Baili Qingcang sat up. “What’s going on? Come in and answer.”
The palace maid came in trembling, not daring to raise her head. “Your Majesty, Your Grace, something happened at the side hall.”
“Side hall? Is it the side hall where Princess Zhaohua lives?”
Baili Qingcang took the robe from the side and put them on. “Let’s go take a look.”
Noble Consort Li hurriedly spoke up to stop him. “Your Majesty, I’ll go. It is very cold outside now. It is still raining, and it is dark outside. I can’t afford for you to catch a cold and fall sick.”
Baili Qingcang frowned. “Don’t worry. Let’s go and take a look.”
Noble Consort Li looked worried, but she was smiling in her heart. Alright, he should go and take a good look. She was full of pride, but she failed to notice the terrifying expression on the palace maid’s face. She put on her clothes and followed Baili Qingcang.
As soon as they turned the corridor and saw the door of the side hall, they saw Shen Ninghua standing by the stairs with an umbrella. Noble Consort Li’s expression suddenly changed, and she felt her heart skip a beat. What was going on? Why was Shen Ninghua standing perfectly fine? What had Nurse Wei done?
At this time, Shen Ninghua, who heard the noise, turned her head. “Greetings, Father Emperor. Greetings, Your Grace.”
Baili Qingcang looked at Nurse Wei who was covered in blood on the ground, and his eyebrows suddenly furrowed. “Ninghua, what’s going on?”
There was a slight confusion on Shen Ninghua’s face. “Father Emperor, I haven’t figured it out yet. I heard a scream just now, so I came out to check, but all I saw was Nurse Wei lying here covered in blood. My maid, Qing Que, seemed to have noticed something strange and went to chase after that person.”
Baili Qingcang frowned. “Nurse Wei? Noble Consort, I believe she’s your maid, right?”
“Yes, she is.” Noble Consort Li was extremely flustered. She raised her head and looked at Shen Ninghua. Those dark and cold eyes made her heart tremble in horror. “Nurse Wei, Nurse Wei! Can you hear me? What’s going on?”
Nurse Wei slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Noble Consort Li. After a while, she stammered a few words intermittently, “T-T-Third Prince… Third Prince…”
Noble Consort Li’s heart skipped a beat. “Third Prince? What are you talking about?” Her tone was full of bewilderment, yet she glared at Nurse Wei maliciously. Shouldn’t it be the Second Prince? Why did the Third Prince get involved in this? This damned servant!
Nurse Wei seemed to be in so much pain that she couldn’t stand it anymore. She rolled her eyes and fainted again.
Baili Qingcang’s face was full of gloom. “Third Prince. What does this have to do with him?”
Noble Consort Li repeatedly refuted, “I-I-I don’t think it’s him… He didn’t enter the palace at all.”
As she spoke, Qing Que walked over. “Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Grace.”
Baili Qingcang knew Qing Que and her excellent martial arts skills. When he saw her return, he hurriedly asked, “What did you just find? Is there anyone suspicious?”
“Your Majesty, after I heard the commotion outside, I quickly came out, but all I saw were some marks on the floor. I chased after the person for a while and didn’t see anything unusual. After all, this is the palace. I didn’t dare to simply go anywhere as I please, so I came back.”
Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes slightly. Things would be simpler if Qing Que brought the two eunuchs over, but it would arouse Baili Qingcang’s suspicions. Therefore, they had to make it a little troublesome and let Baili Qingcang find out the truth himself.
“Where is Lin Feiran? Why didn’t I see her?”
Noble Consort Li’s body stiffened, and she subconsciously looked at the tightly closed door. If Shen Ninghua was fine, where did those eunuchs send the Second Prince to? Did they send him to Lin Feiran’s room? Thinking of this, she gasped silently, and her heart was in her throat.
Shen Ninghua looked at the tense Noble Consort Li, and a cold smile flashed across her eyes. “I didn’t hear anything from Miss Lin’s room just now. Qing Que, go take a look.”
“Yes.”
Qing Que walked to the door and was about to reach out to knock when she heard a low roar coming from the room, “Get lost, don’t come in!”
Noble Consort Li was stunned on the spot. “T-That is the Third Prince’s voice…”
Baili Qingcang’s face darkened. In the middle of the night, the Third Prince appeared in an unmarried woman’s room. What else could happen?
“Open the door!”
Noble Consort Li felt a chill down her spine. “Your Majesty, this matter…”
“Shut up! I’ll naturally investigate the truth of this matter.” Baili Qingcang stared coldly at Noble Consort Li. “Qing Que, kick the door open!”
With Baili Qingcang’s instructions, Qing Que did not hesitate to kick the door open. They saw the Third Prince standing in the room with disheveled clothes in one hand and looking at the door in surprise. “F-F-F-Father Emperor… Mother…”

The eunuchs wanted to follow him in, but the door was slammed shut. The two of them were already a little scared. When they saw Nurse Wei act like this, they immediately felt a little unfair. They glared at the door and cursed in their hearts, “Humph, that old fart does this because she doesn’t want us to claim our credit from Noble Consort. Just wait and see.
