Chapter 257 Bite
As for Queen Ning, Bai Yanli's attitude was also very simple.
First, she is not his mother, but the original owner's.
Secondly, the original owner did not enter the palace for revenge for her, so there was no need for him to regard revenge for her as such an important matter.
What he is doing now and everything he wants to take back, besides helping the original owner to avenge his family’s demise, is more for himself!
It is his character that will never sit still and wait for death.
Therefore, he did not take Queen Ning's matter seriously at all, and naturally would not do anything on her death anniversary. However, he did not expect that Concubine Chen would actually let Tang Wanru into the palace.
But he didn't enter the palace.
This girl is so smart.
She would directly doubt his origins because of this incident. Although he did not deliberately hide it, this was not a good time for him to reveal his identity to her.
It would scare her.
So now he wants to get rid of Tang Wanru's suspicion of him.
Seeing Bai Yanli took the initiative to bring up this topic, Tang Wanru felt that his words were awkward, but she still wanted to hear how he would explain it, so she sat down obediently: "You still remember your mother's death anniversary, I thought you forgot."
"That's my mother." Bai Yanli said calmly, "Of course I won't forget her."
"Then why didn't you go to pay tribute to your mother?" Tang Wanru asked.
"Wanru, I won't hide it from you." Bai Yanli's face became more serious and his expression dimmed. He said, "I have been outside the palace for many years. Now I have finally regained my status. Many eyes are watching me. If I go to worship my mother now, it will seem that I have been plotting to enter the palace. If this gets to the ears of Emperor Zhou, everything I have done before will be in vain."
"Wanru, you know how cautious Emperor Zhou is."
“I have to tread carefully.”
So that’s it.
Tang Wanru nodded. Bai Yanli was right to be cautious. This was how one should behave when interacting with Emperor Zhou.
but--
She is not stupid either!!
Can't she tell the difference between truth and falsehood?
Is it because he doesn't care at all, or is it because of external reasons that he can't go there to pay tribute and can hide it from her eyes?
After this guy concealed the identity of the Seventh Prince, he now concealed her other identities.
If she guessed correctly.
He is not the Bai Yanli from the previous life at all!
She didn't know what to say.
But he could also feel that he was different from himself. He was not reborn.
She didn't know any more.
Looking at Bai Yanli's deliberately made expression of missing his mother, Tang Wanru narrowed her eyes: "Is this really the reason?"
"Of course." Bai Yanli nodded.
"Then I understand." Tang Wanru paused and said, "Then it's okay for Concubine Chen to let me into the palace today, right?"
"It's okay." Bai Yanli gently held her hand and said, "Go if you want. If I can't go, then just pretend you're going and show my filial piety to my mother."
"Yeah." Tang Wanru nodded.
Bai Yanli didn't say anything else. He reached out his hand and pulled Tang Wanru from the chair into his arms. He gently touched her fair skin and said, "Wanru, I miss you so much." Didn't he come back so early today just to spend more time with her? But she didn't come back until now. Thinking of this, he went up and kissed her little face.
"I miss you, too." Tang Wanru hugged him obediently and buried her head in his ear. "I miss you so much that I want to swallow you into my stomach."
Then she suddenly opened her mouth, revealing her sharp teeth, and bit his ear.
Bai Yanli trembled all over after being bitten.
She really is willing to bite it.
That’s right, Tang Wanru narrowed her eyes.
Liar! Liar her again!
The liar knew her background very well, but he hid himself everywhere.
She would be sorry if she didn't bite him!
She waited, believing that sooner or later he would confess to her.

The lane outside Tang Mansion.
Liu was anxiously waiting for someone. Finally, she saw a man walking towards her in a casual manner. It was Liu Duo.
"Have you entered Lin Yunrou's treasury?" When Liu Duo came, Liu couldn't wait to ask, "Did you steal all her money?"
Last time, Wang Po discovered the location of Lin Yunrou's treasury from Wang Hua's belongings. He immediately told Liu Duo the location and asked him to steal it!
So as soon as she arrived, she couldn't wait to ask for the result!
What are you in such a hurry for?
After hearing this, Liu Duo silently rolled his eyes. He felt upset that he was asked to work without any money and was urged to work harder. It was really annoying!
"I'm working on it!" Liu Duo spat on the ground in annoyance. Did she think stealing something was that easy? It would require multiple visits without being discovered by others. He couldn't be impatient. Moreover, the lock of Lin Yunrou's treasury was different from the usual ones. He tried several times but couldn't open it.
She keeps urging me, it would be great if she was discovered!
"If you're in a hurry, go steal it yourself!" Liu Duo rolled his eyes in annoyance.
Liu was really convinced. She usually gave him money every month and she never said anything. But now she asked him to do such a small thing and he had this attitude.
"I told you, that is Lin Yunrou's treasury. There are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry in it. You just need to open it and take some from it. You can..."
snort!
Take some?
Liu Duo thought, damn, if it can be opened, it was him who opened it, so just let him take some from it?
How could she say that!
"That's what will happen when the time comes!" He was not stupid to promise him a happy ending. She didn't even pay him for the job.
"I have no money left, hurry up and give me some money!"
Liu was completely speechless!
She was really unlucky to have such a brother.
Then Liu pulled out a purse from her sleeve. Liu Duo immediately reached out and grabbed it. He quickly opened it, and to his surprise, there was more silver inside than he had imagined.
"Have you found your conscience?" Seeing that Liu didn't say anything, Liu Duo thought for a moment and said, "Did you make a fortune?" After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and reached out to touch Liu Panchun's waist, saying, "Is there anything you haven't taken out? Is this all you've given me after making a fortune?"
Liu was so angry that she was about to die from his behavior!
She slapped his hand away and said angrily, "You are really crazy for the sake of money!"
"You're still blaming me?" Liu Duo immediately asked back, "You don't like money, so why do you want me to steal Lin Yunrou's treasury?"
Liu:......
She was speechless. But Liu couldn't conflict with him at this time, otherwise, she would not be able to get the money in Lin Yunrou's treasury.
So she said irritably, "Okay, I'm giving you more money not because I have a lot of money, but because I want you to do something else."
He just said it!
Liu Duo snorted, this old woman would never suffer any loss.
Liu said, "I was used by Tang Wanru a few days ago. I was so angry that I had to make her pay the price."
"Tang Wanru? The Seventh Imperial Concubine?" Liu Duo was stunned, then said in shock, "You want me to go after the Seventh Imperial Concubine? Damn it, when she wasn't the Seventh Imperial Concubine, both you and Tang Yue'er couldn't handle her. You want me to go now? You want me to die just for a little extra money?"
Liu seemed to have guessed Liu Duo's reaction long ago. She just said calmly: "It's not the Seventh Concubine, it's someone around her."
Liu Duo was stunned, and asked with a squint: "What do you mean?"
In the darkness, a gleam of gloom flashed across Liu's eyes.
