Lu Ping's expression changed: "Who is that person?!"

Who could actually spare the guards of the Zhenguo Palace and deliver the news to the eldest girl in the inner house?

"I didn't see the person, and I didn't make any announcement about the matter!"

Lu Ping lowered his eyes and stared at the tips of his shoes, thinking carefully, his palms already covered with sweat.

If this news was sent in by an outsider, then their escort team would really deserve death...

"After much thought, I still have doubts. Why should the news from southern Xinjiang be sent to me instead of to the elders in the family for no reason? And they chose the day when the second girl will leave the cabinet."

Bai Qingyan paused and looked at Lu Ping, his face as dark as water: "So, tomorrow I would like to ask you to sit down at Zui'anfang for me and keep an eye out for anyone who behaves suspiciously..."

Bai Qingyan wanted Lu Ping to go to Chang'an Street in person to find out the details of King Liang's assassination. It would be best to find out who was responsible for the assassination. If Bai Jinxiu did not avoid the assassination of King Liang, Lu Ping would not be there.

Bai Jinxiu will lose his life.

Bai Qingyan couldn't tell Lu Ping that Prince Liang would be assassinated, so he came up with this idea.

"Lu Ping takes the order." Lu Ping said solemnly.

"Uncle Ping, be careful in everything you do. If you see anyone acting suspiciously, write it down and investigate it carefully later, so as not to let the entire Duke's palace fall into someone else's trap." Bai Qing warned.

"Don't worry, big girl, Lu Ping understands the importance."

Lu Ping handed the umbrella in his hand to Chuntao, bowed to Bai Qing and left in a hurry.

Seeing Bai Qingyan staring at Lu Ping's back in trance, Chuntao reminded in a low voice: "Miss, let's go back to the room and change into brighter clothes! We will be painting later, and the color of the clothes will look better in the painting."

She looked away, and because she was weak due to a long illness, her voice was soft and shallow: "I'm tired, so I won't join in the fun... just go back."

When Bai Qingyan returned to Qinghui Courtyard, Shen Qingzhu had been waiting in the corridor for a while.

Looking at the young and lively Shen Qingzhu in front of her, her eyes were sore.

Shen Qingzhu grew up with Bai Qingyan, saying that they are more like sisters than master and servant.

When she was ten years old, she begged her grandfather to take her to the battlefield. Her grandfather gave her two years and said that if she could train a female guard within two years, she would be allowed to follow her to the battlefield. It was at that time that Shen Qingzhu was captured by Bai Qingyan

Picked.

Later, this female escort protected her on the battlefield several times. When she was sixteen years old, she disguised herself as a man and went to the battlefield with her grandfather for the second time. She was penetrated by an enemy's spear through the abdomen and fell into the turbulence in the cold winter. The escort was almost wiped out.

Then he rescued her from the river.

The military doctor said that Bai Qingyan was lucky to survive, but there was no hope for heirs. Shen Qingzhu blamed himself for not protecting Bai Qingyan, and after returning, he invited himself to train in the army. She was regarded as an adopted daughter by Vice General Shen, but in school

After he succeeded, he resolutely returned to the Bai Mansion and guarded Bai Qingyan with all his heart.

"Come in!" Bai Qing said.

Chuntao personally picked the curtain for Shen Qingzhu: "Miss Shen, please."

Shen Qingzhu, dressed neatly in neat clothes, followed Bai Qingyan into the room, clasped his fists and saluted: "Miss, what are your orders?"

Seeing Bai Qingyan unbuttoning his cloak and handing it to Chuntao, putting down the stove, and sitting at the desk writing a letter, Shen Qingzhu didn't get too close for fear of getting too cold and exposing Bai Qingyan.

Bai Qingyan wrote quickly, put down the langhao pen in his hand and told Chuntao: "Chuntao, please stay outside and don't let others get close."

"Yes." Chuntao picked up the curtain and went out.

Bai Qingyan closed the envelope and walked to Shen Qingzhu with the letter in hand: "Qingzhu, take a few trustworthy people and rush to southern Xinjiang immediately. The journey will be as fast as you can! Give the letter to my Bai family! The matter is urgent.

You and I can’t trust anyone else!”

"Yes!" Shen Qingzhu took the letter with both hands without asking any questions. Just as he was about to leave, Bai Qingyan grabbed his wrist.

"Girl, do you have any other instructions?"

Bai Qingyan's hands were extremely strong, and her red eyes were full of hatred: "If...if all my Bai family members are gone, you must get the marching and war conditions recorded by the accompanying historian of the Bai family army! Send this letter Give the letter to your adoptive father, General Shen, and find my grandfather's deputy general Liu Huanzhang...kill him."

Shen Qingzhu glanced at Bai Qingyan in shock, what does it mean that all the Bai family members are gone?!

Bai Qingyan's face was grave. Shen Qingzhu knew that the matter was of great importance and solemnly nodded: "Qingzhu takes the order!"

Seeing Shen Qingzhu coming out of the house with a pale face, Chuntao hurriedly opened the curtain and entered the house, with worry on her eyebrows: "Big girl..."

Bai Qingyan stood by the stove, looking down at the flickering charcoal fire, and the turbulent emotions in her heart gradually calmed down.

Do your best...just listen to fate!

"Chuntao, I'm tired." Bai Qingyan looked a little dazed.

"Slave, wait for the eldest girl and take a rest for a while."

Chuntao helped Bai Qingyan remove the hairpin from her head, changed into loose clothes, and rested on the couch for a few minutes. Then she was woken up by Qin, who was beside her mother Dong, and drank a bowl of bitter medicine.

Seeing Bai Qingyan's frowning expression after drinking the bitter medicine, Grandma Qin felt extremely distressed. She hurriedly held hot water and asked Bai Qingyan to rinse her mouth: "Girl, if you don't bear it any longer, Doctor Hong said this medicine won't last long." After drinking it for a few months, the girl's cold illness will be better!"

Bai Qingyan pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, picked up plum blossoms from the box held by Chunyan and put them in her mouth to feel better.

"Tomorrow my second sister will leave the cabinet, and my mother will be busy with many things. Aunt Qin, you are my mother's right-hand man. My mother cannot live without you. You don't have to come to me four or five times a day. Please help me tell my mother not to worry about me." .”

Nanny Qin nodded: "Okay, don't worry, big lady, I will definitely bring the message to you."

Seeing that Bai Qingyan had already picked up the military book on the kang table, Chuntao put down the collection box very discerningly and said with a smile: "Mommy, Chuntao gives it to you."

Aunt Qin bowed to Bai Qingyan and told Chuntao as she left: "There will be something going on in the mansion tomorrow. It is inevitable that the maid will be lazy tonight because of the excitement. The lady in charge will not be able to return to the mansion until tomorrow. Remember to ask the nurse to take care of her." Earth Dragon's mother-in-law will add charcoal fire, and the fire in this house will be burning brightly! The eldest girl is afraid of the cold, and the girls who keep watch at night should be more alert!"

"Don't worry, Nanny Qin!" Chuntao smiled and opened the curtain for Nanny Qin, "Chuntao will keep an eye on it personally."

Just after seeing off Nanny Qin, Chuntao was standing on the porch before she could enter the house. Chunyan, with her head covered with snow, came in from the door and trotted to the porch. She patted the snowflakes on her body and asked Chuntao: "Miss, are you awake?" "

"I'm awake, I just took the medicine, and I'm reading a book right now." Chuntao brushed the fallen snow from Chunyan's hair, "What did you do to make you so cold? You're not afraid of giving it to the girl!"

Chunyan smiled mysteriously: "It's a good thing, I went to the house first to report it to the girl, she will definitely be more cheerful!"

With that said, Chunyan rashly opened the curtain and entered the house, but Chuntao couldn't stop her.

"Girl!" Chunyan saw Bai Qingyan leaning on the big pillow embroidered with gold auspicious clouds and reading a book. She bowed and said with a smile, "Girl, His Highness Prince Liang got the news of Doctor Hong entering the palace early this morning. I'm afraid that The girl was not feeling well, so she quietly came to the corner gate at the back of our house. The servant got the message and went there. His Highness Prince Liang said hesitantly that he was here to get the book on the art of war that had been annotated by the Duke..."

When Bai Qingyan heard the word "Liang Wang", her whole body stiffened and she could hardly hold her breath. She placed her hand on the kang table and tightened her nails so hard that they were almost embedded in the chicken wing wood. In her previous life, she had done this with her own hands on the military manual annotated by her grandfather.
