Chapter 240 Revealed

On the other side, in the courtyard of the Tang Mansion.

Originally, Tang Jiang took Bai Yanli and Zhou Ziyue to stroll in the backyard, but Tang Jiang left because of something, leaving only Zhou Ziyue and Bai Yanli.

Two people stood on the rockery, looking at the lake in front of them.

There were several fish swimming freely in the water. Zhou Ziyue picked up a stone and threw it directly into the water, which happened to hit the fish on the head. The fish was so painful that it turned upside down.

Zhou Ziyue smiled and said, "Seventh Prince, this world is really strange. Look at this fish. It didn't expect that it would be killed by someone when it was at its most proud, right?"

He glanced at Bai Yanli and said with a smile: "It's the same with people. Don't think that you can always enjoy unlimited glory just because you have gained something. You never know when someone will overthrow you."

Bai Yanli smiled and stared at the fish. He saw that when no one was looking at it, it turned over its belly again and swam away quickly.

It's alive.

Bai Yanli couldn't help laughing: "Prince, next time you strike, you must hit the vital point, otherwise not only will your efforts be wasted, but it will also make the other party more proud."

Bai Yanli's words were very clear. Before Nuo Yu came, the Crown Prince had always mistakenly regarded the King of Wei as his biggest opponent, which was what almost caused him to overturn his old nest.

The more Zhou Zi listened, the darker his expression became.

Bai Yanli turned around and left without saying anything else, but Zhou Ziyue refused to let him go: "Bai Yanli!" he said coldly.

Bai Yanli stopped gently.

He walked up to him and said coldly, "Bai Yanli, do you think you can be anything now that you have regained your status as a prince?"

He sneered and said, "I tell you, the prince is not as simple as you think in the emperor's heart. To this day, the prince's power has been beaten to pieces, but do you think the prince is in trouble? If the emperor really wanted to destroy him, he would have sent people to assassinate him seventy or eighty times, but he didn't."

He looked at Bai Yanli and said, "Do you think you have really entered the heart of the emperor? Do you think your chances are better?"

"You are too naive. You have come this far, but you are just a clown who can better witness the relationship between the emperor and the prince. The more you see, the more hopeless you feel."

"What's more, the prince still has the Shen's Army." Zhou Ziyue said, "Those Dark Chamber and Shen's Army teams you killed are just mere scum. As long as the Shen's Army is there, the prince will never dismount."

"Prince." After hearing this, Bai Yanli turned his head and looked at him calmly: "You think too much. I have never thought of letting the prince dethrone. I have been wandering outside for many years. I returned to the palace just to find a father's love. I have never thought about anything else."

Humph, it would be strange if he didn’t have it!

Zhou Ziyue knew that if he didn't want to, he wouldn't be hiding under the King of Wei to help the emperor. If he didn't want to, he wouldn't be returning to the palace at all!

"So, I'm not worried about whether the crown prince will be brought down, but you, my prince." Bai Yanli stared at him.

"I, what's wrong with me?"

"You have accomplished nothing in the tasks the crown prince assigned to you recently. If you continue like this, either the crown prince will be brought down or you, the prince, will be brought down." He glanced at him nonchalantly.

"Bai Yanli, you——"

Bai Yanli said nothing more and turned and left.

Zhou Ziyue looked at his back and gritted his teeth.

He wanted to see how far this abandoned prince could go after coming back!

Changfeng Courtyard.

In the afternoon, Bai Yanli stayed with Lin in Changfeng Courtyard for a while and then left. Tang Wanru sent him to the door and watched him leave. As a result, she turned around and saw Lin standing behind her with a serious face.

Hey?

Tang Wanru felt strange. She didn't have this expression when Bai Yanli was here just now. She was smiling happily.

Lin Yunrou said nothing and went back into the house. Tang Wanru had no choice but to follow her in.

As soon as she sat down, Lin sighed.

Tang Jiang was happy that Bai Yanli was recognized as a prince, but she was not. She had a knot in her heart.

She remembered that Lin Yunsong had told her that something might happen in the court, and it would be best for her to stay away from it.

At that time, she thought it was a good idea to marry Bai Yanli.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yanli suddenly became a prince and ran into this storm. How could Lin not be worried?

When she saw two people coming today, she felt her heart in her throat.

Tang Wanru seemed to see what Lin was thinking. She sat beside her, picked a grape and handed it to her: "Mother, this is for you."

Lin Yunrou looked at her heartless appearance and couldn't get angry for a moment. She knew that there was nothing to worry about, but she had to remind her.

Her expression relaxed a little and she said, "Ruru, mother tells you that the court is like a battlefield. Originally, Bai Yanli was a businessman and the dispute was only about money, but now he is in the court, and his life may be involved at any time. You and Yanli must not be proud of this sudden identity and cause trouble."

She knew this was what she was talking about.

With the methods she and Bai Yanli use, they can only cause trouble for others, so how could the trouble fall on them?

"Mom, we know that your daughter is smart and wise, and Yan Li is also a steady and proper person. It is only us who may provoke others, but others cannot provoke us."

That's true.

Lin still trusts Tang Wanru very much.

Since things have come to this, she just gave some suggestions and didn't say anything more. She smiled and said, "Then congratulations to you, Seventh Imperial Concubine?" All in all, she had been promoted since she got married and she deserved congratulations.

Tang Wanru smiled brightly: "Thank you, mother!"

Tang Wanru and Lin Yunrou chatted for a while and then came out of the Tang Mansion. At this time, Yingchun came up and whispered in her ear: "Master, Wang Po is back."

Wang Po?

Tang Wanru nodded and asked, "Did we gain anything from sending someone to follow her to the outer courtyard this time?"

Yingchun replied: "I didn't get much, but I found out that she wasn't the only one living in the outer courtyard. There might be other people living in other houses there. It's a pity that I didn't see that person this time."

other people?

Tang Wanru's pupils sank. She remembered clearly that the person who was guiding Wang Hua behind the scenes had not shown up yet, and that person was most likely the one who killed her mother in the previous life.

Soon.

We're almost there.

"Go tell mother that Wang Po might not be reconciled this time and will still attack her shop." Tang Wanru said, "Tell her to protect her shop and all her property!"

This time she not only has to protect herself, but also lure the snake out of its hole!

Yingchun nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, Master."
