Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

In the Second Prince's Mansion.

"Don't let what happened today happen again!"

Concubine Hu looked at Nan Heying's tense face and knew that her actions today had made Nan Heying unhappy.

She felt a little scared and quickly suppressed her previous arrogance. She curled her lips and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.

“Your Highness, do you think that I want to embarrass myself in front of others? It’s because Lin Qingrou is too arrogant and frivolous. She knew that I was accompanying Your Highness to the banquet today, but she still blatantly seduced Your Highness. If this gets out, how will I live my life...嘤嘤嘤..."

The second prince, Nan Heying, felt both distressed and annoyed as he watched the beauty in front of him cry.

Lin Qingrou's behavior today was indeed excessive. He thought she really had secret information, but he didn't expect that Lin Qingrou just wanted to take the opportunity to seduce him.

If she is not taught a lesson today to serve as a warning to others, such things will probably happen again and again.

Sooner or later, it will reach the ears of Emperor Ming, affecting the heroic image he has established in the outside world and will not be of any benefit to his fight for the throne.

Thinking in this way, Concubine Hu had helped him clear up some troubles.

After coaxing Concubine Hu softly and asking her to go back to her room to wash up and wait for him, Nan Heying frowned and said to the guard at the door, "Ask Cheng Ru to see me."

A moment later, a man in his forties with ordinary looks and wearing a navy blue gown came up to Nan Heying with his back bent.

"I have met His Highness the Second Prince."

Nan Heying's inquiring eyes fell on Cheng Ru's lowered head, and after a while he said, "Mr. Cheng, please don't be polite."

"I wonder why Your Highness called me here?"

Cheng Ru asked politely but not flatteringly.

This is also the reason why Nan Heying admires him. Cheng Ru is not like other guests who are afraid or flattering to him. Instead, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and appears to be quite dignified among the crowd of guests.

Could it be that the person behind Cheng Ru knows his preferences very well?

Nan Heying felt like a thorn in his back and became even more uneasy and anxious. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly to Cheng Ru.

"I have followed your advice and spread rumors in the capital three days ago that the prince is too weak to be humane. Now that the prince has gotten married, what else do we need to do next?"

Cheng Ru pondered for a moment, "We must immediately withdraw our personnel regarding the rumor and let the people spread it on their own. Otherwise, if the prince finds evidence against us, we will be in a passive position."

Nan Heying nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

As if suddenly remembering something, Nan Heying turned around and asked, "What about the Ministry of War?"

Cheng Ru was stunned for a moment, "Ministry of War?"

But he immediately realized what Nan Heying was asking and lowered his head to think for a while.

"Your Highness, the poor quality of military supplies has caused a major reshuffle in the Ministry of War, and even our spies were not able to escape capture by the Imperial Guards."

"Except for the Minister of War who has always remained neutral, there are neither our people nor the prince's people in the Ministry of War."

"I think this matter needs to be considered carefully and not rushed. We need to slowly train our people. If we act too aggressively, His Majesty may suspect that we have tampered with the inferior military supplies."

Of course they had made some moves. When they found out that the prince was trying to embezzle a huge amount of military funds, Nan Heying would naturally not let go of such a good opportunity.

The first suspect captured by the Yulin Guards was the one who was brought to Nan Rongjing by Nan Heying.

But no matter how much he tried, Nan Heying didn't dare to do it. After all, Nan Rongjing and his Yulin Guards were no pushovers. If he were to get dragged into this, it would be a waste of time.

Emperor Ming was indeed suspicious. If they intervened in this matter again, the focus of the military funds issue might be shifted to the fight for the throne. At that time, the prince's crime would certainly be much smaller than embezzling military funds.

Cheng Ru's words were flawless and there was nothing wrong with them, but perhaps it was Lin Yushu's words today that made him suspicious of Cheng Ru. Nan Heying felt indescribably strange when listening to these words.

Nan Heying's face showed no trace of suspicion and she nodded to Cheng Ru with a smile.

"That's right, sir. Let's do as you say."

Cheng Ru bowed and a sharp light flashed in his eyes the moment he lowered his head.

At the same time, when Cheng Ru lowered his head, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Nan Heying's eyes.

-

As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Yushu dozed off in the sedan chair on the way back home.

The Cheng Ru that she and the second prince Nan Heying mentioned today was the traitor that Nan Huaishuo planted next to Nan Heying in the previous life.

In the previous life, after the death of the crown prince, the seemingly prosperous Nan Heying did not take Nan Huaishuo seriously at all.

This gave Nan Huaishuo the opportunity to launch a surprise attack. Cheng Ru cooperated with Nan Huaishuo from both inside and outside, causing Nan Heying to suffer successive defeats.

Nan Huaishuo took this opportunity to grow rapidly, and soon became equal to Nan Heying, who had stood firm in Beijing for many years.

In this life, the prince has not died yet, and Nan Huaishuo has not had the opportunity to develop his own power, so Lin Yushu has begun to work on pulling out his minions.

When the day comes that the prince dies, Nan Huaishuo will never be able to have the glory he had in his previous life again!

Lin Yushu must never let Nan Huaishuo ascend to the throne again!

Just as I was thinking about it, the sedan chair suddenly stopped and a voice came from the door.

"Miss."

It was Zhuzi's voice. It seemed he had something to report.

"Come in and talk."

Zhuzi climbed onto the carriage nimbly, opened the curtain, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and whispered to Lin Yushu.

"This was secretly given to me by Shopkeeper Xiao."

Xiao Xiuyuan?

Xiao Xiuyuan has always been tactful in his work. He probably knows Lin Yushu's situation in the general's mansion, so unless it is an important matter, he will not send a letter to her in front of the second lady's guards.

Lin Yushu took the note and slowly unfolded it, only to see a line of slightly scribbled words on it.

"Someone is causing trouble at Baicao Hall, and we are afraid that it will alert the government."

Lin Yushu's eyebrows suddenly became sharp, and a hint of coldness appeared in the corners of her eyes. "Let's go to Baicaotang instead."

Baicaotang is close to Nanshi, and is quite far from the General's Mansion and the East Palace.

After walking for nearly an hour, the sky had already darkened and the sunlight was hiding behind the roofs of distant houses and was slowly fading.

Darkness is coming.

Lin Yushu slowly got off the carriage. Not far away, a group of people gathered at the entrance of Baicaotang.

Lin Yushu was not afraid at all. Since they were "making trouble", they must have something to ask for. If they had something to ask for but had no support, they could only attract a group of people who were unaware of the truth and use them for their own purposes.

Chun Tao's voice trembled a little: "Miss, there are so many people gathered in front of the hall. Should we report it directly to the police? I'm afraid they will hurt you."

"They are just a bunch of greedy and ignorant people. What's there to be afraid of?"

What's more, Leng Dai was following behind her at the moment.

Before entering the Eastern Palace, Lin Yushu asked Leng Dai to guard the carriage outside, and after leaving the Eastern Palace, Leng Dai followed her closely.

Zhuzi pushed away the people blocking Lin Yushu's way, and Lin Yushu walked into Baicaotang as if no one was around. Her awe-inspiring aura made the people around her unconsciously make way for her.

"Who is this girl? I can't see clearly because of the veil."

"I guess the owner of this store is too embarrassed to face people after something like this happened."

"Look at how well-dressed this person is. She must be a daughter of a powerful official family. No wonder she doesn't take human life seriously."
