The queen died unjustly and was reborn as the empress.

Chapter 150 Anyone in the way should die

She stroked her belly, turned around and walked out, "Uncle, please go back. I'll take care of the money. We'll meet you at the back door and alley tonight. Remember, don't let anyone see you. You know, it's not convenient for His Highness now. There's something going on. No one can see it anymore.”

"I know, I know." Zheng Shaoke laughed through tears, he was finally saved. He stood up hurriedly and walked out. He wanted to go back and pack his things quickly.

Just as Zheng Shaoke was sent away, before he could catch his breath, a person dressed as a female envoy staggered in, knelt in front of Bai Mei, and said, "The concubine is not good, something happened to my aunt!"

The person who came was none other than Zheng's maid Qingping, who burst into tears when she saw Baimei.

"You're crying, it's bad luck." Liu'er, the new maid next to Bai Mei, kicked Qingping away from Bai Mei's feet. "The concubine is pregnant now, so I don't want anyone to cry. If the young prince in the concubine's belly is broken by crying, it would not be an exaggeration to have all nine of your clans punished."

Qingping was immediately frightened, stopped crying, wiped her tears, and then spoke.

"Concubine, please save Aunt Zheng, she was captured by the government officials."

Bai Mei trembled, "What's wrong with my aunt?" Her aunt was doing well at home, so why was she involved in a lawsuit with the government again?

Qingping held back her tears and said, "My aunt had money on hand, so she secretly put usury money, hoping to earn more to support the concubine. Yesterday was the day to collect the money, so my aunt asked her servants to collect the money. The Sixth Prince couldn't pay the money, so he cried for his father and mother, so he started fighting with the servants. Early this morning, the servants came to report that the Sixth Prince had hanged himself, and his family went to Jingzhao Yamen Reported the crime, sir, without saying a word and without caring about Mr. Bai’s face, he took Aunt Zheng away.”

"Usury loans? You said my aunt had usury loans? Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Bai Mei stamped her foot.

Officials don't allow usury. If you are caught, you will be sentenced, not to mention that it will cause death. He kept saying it was for her own good, but he didn't know how many times he gave her money. All in all, it was not as much as his uncle.

Bai Mei was so angry that her heart ached. There were all the witnesses and physical evidence, so how could she save the person? Please ask for Your Highness? No, big things are coming, and we can't let this trivial matter disturb the Second Highness and affect her future.

Moreover, if His Highness the Second Highness knew that her aunt was involved in a lawsuit due to loan sharking, he would definitely look down upon her and the child in her belly. I wonder which country's queen will have a mother-in-law who borrows money?

Liu'er saw Bai Mei's dilemma, pressed her arm, shook her head, and said softly: "Concubine, please think twice. You will be a high-ranking person in the future, and you can't ruin your reputation for this."

Liu'er's words went to Bai Mei's heart, that's what she thought. No one can stop her from ascending to the throne, not even the Bai family.

She faced Qingping and said coldly: "As the concubine of His Highness Second Highness, His Highness is doing things impartially outside, how can I bend the law for personal gain? My mother is the first to make loan sharks, and the second is to harm people's lives. I, We can’t save her.”

Tears fell down as he spoke, "Tell my grandma to go well. I will take good care of my brother and bring glory to the Zheng family."

Qingping leaned aside and said, "Miss, you...you don't care about my aunt?"

Bai Mei closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't control it." After saying that, she stopped looking at Qingping and returned to her new garden with Liu'er's support.

"Miss Third, that's your own mother! Are you just going to ignore her?" Qingping shouted desperately at Bai Mei's retreating back. She felt worthless for Aunt Zheng, and also felt worthless for herself. She had always believed that her third young lady would think of them well when she got rich. Unexpectedly, when the third young lady became a concubine, she also became rich, and she unexpectedly changed. So heartless and unjust.

Bai Mei stopped and paused. Liu Er pulled her sleeve and whispered, "Concubine, you should think carefully about yourself. If you help my aunt this time, His Highness will definitely look down upon you."

Bai Mei gritted her teeth and placed her hands on her slightly protruding belly, thinking: She is the future queen, and no one can look down upon her.

In the Yamen Hall, Fang Mingzhou stood up and shouted: "Ms. Zheng, as a concubine of an official family, you actually let usury money secretly, which cost Wang Liuzi's life. Come on! Pull him down and you will be executed tomorrow."

"What an injustice, what an injustice! You can't kill me. I'm His Highness's mother-in-law. You can't kill me..." Mrs. Zheng never imagined that Qingping would go to Baimei for help, but she would die. No help.

At midnight, Zheng Shaoke, dressed in black, came to the back door of Prince Yue's Mansion, hid in the darkest corner, and looked around.

It was almost midnight, but Bai Mei didn't come to see him. Could it be that she regretted it?

At this time, a voice and shadow came out of the quiet alley intersection. coming!

Zheng Shaoke leaned out, shook his hand towards the shadow, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Is it Mei'er? I'm here."

The shadow came this way, getting closer and closer, and the human shape became clearer. It was not the figure of a woman, but a burly man, a man in black with a mask on his face, an assassin in black.

The man in black spoke politely, "I have met the master."

Zheng Shaoke nodded, "Who are you?"

"Master, I am Tianyi. It was you who made me follow the concubine in the first place."

When Zheng Shaoke heard that he was one of his own, he finally stopped raising his voice. "Did Meier ask you to come here? Did Meier say anything?"

Tianyi's eyes suddenly became sharp, "The concubine said, let me send you on your way."

When Zheng Shaoke heard this, he shrank back and killed and silenced him! He ran away, but he was a weak businessman after all. He was lifted up in the air by the man in black before he could take a few steps away.

Under the night, a figure was lifted up in the air, with its legs struggling. A knife shadow passed by, blood spattered on the wall, and before he even had time to cry out for help, his legs collapsed.

In the new garden, Bai Mei stood in front of the window. Liu Er came over and put on her coat, "Concubine, you'd better go in. It's windy outside, so be careful of catching a cold."

"It's okay, I'll wait."

A dark figure jumped into the inner wall and knelt in front of the window, "Princess, it's okay."

Bai Mei breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly raised another concern, "Do you know who was killed today?"

"I know, he is my old master."

Bai Mei nodded and continued: "Actually, you can not kill him and take him far away."

"Since my subordinates have recognized the concubine as my master, they will serve her for the rest of their lives without any second thoughts."

Bai Mei nodded with satisfaction, "He who knows the current affairs is a hero, you are very good. Don't worry, follow me, you will benefit from me in the future."

"Yes!"

After a while, Bai Mei spoke again, "Get rid of someone for me."
