Princess Sets Poison Again Chapter 10

Chapter 10 - Sisterhood

Madam Rong walked into the side hall with a peach in her hand.

"Greetings, Snow Madame."

Seeing the Rong family, Bai Ruoyu immediately bowed.

Glancing at the beautiful Bai Ruoyu, Madam Rong frowned slightly.

"I wonder why Second Miss is visiting late at night?"

The faint voice was neither intimate nor distant, just right and proper.

Bai Ruoyu lowered her eyes, "It's like this, I heard that my big sister is staying in Snow Mansion tonight, so I'm afraid it's not convenient, hence Ruo Yu came to bring big sister back to the house."

When Madam Rong heard, she frowned and looked at the peach.

Is Lei'er in Snow Mansion today?

Peach gently shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Madam Rong's eyes flashed, and she turned to look at Bai Ruoyu with a light smile, "It's like this. I like that little girl, Feng'er, very much, because it's late, so I let her stay in Snow Mansion for the night. Second Miss doesn't need to spend so much time and effort to come and pick her up, when tomorrow morning, I will send her back home."

"My big sister hasn't left the pavilion yet, and she is also engaged to the Crown Prince. It doesn't seem appropriate for her to stay in the Snow Mansion like this."

Bai Ruoyu's eyes were still drooping as she spoke in a neither humble nor haughty manner.

Madam Rong frowned, displeasure flas.h.i.+ng across her eyes.

"How can you say that? Her mother and I are sisters of Jinlan. As an aunt, there's nothing wrong with letting her stay for the night."

She did not like this Second Miss's hypocritical look, even though her words were grand and her affection for him was deep, she had bullied them many times behind her back. This Snow Mansion was probably safer than her, it would be better if her daughter stayed in Snow Mansion.

"But …"

"There's no 'buts', it's already late, Second Miss should go back."

Bai Ruoyu still wanted to argue, but the Rong family had already impatiently ordered for them to leave.

As soon as Madam Rong's voice fell, a servant came in to report.

"Madame, someone from the Crown Prince's Palace has come. She said that she is here to deliver the imperial edict to the Miss Bai."

Madam Rong frowned, a glint flas.h.i.+ng across her eyes.

Even the crown prince knew about the matter of Gu'er staying in Snow Mansion overnight? It seemed like the matter had blown up.

Could it be that the crown prince's decree was to end the marriage?

Bai Ruoyu also immediately thought of the decree to end the engagement, a trace of excitement flas.h.i.+ng through her clear eyes.

"Where is the person who announced the decree?" Madam Rong raised her eyes to look at the servant.

"To the young duke's Southern Garden."

"Go call the marquis."

Madam Rong shot a glance at the peach before it bowed and left.

Southern Garden.

"You can't go in there."

Song Yan half squatted, and used a strange movement to block in front of Li Feng.

Li Feng completely ignored Song Yan and directly bypa.s.sed him and entered the Southern Garden.

"Hey, I said you can't enter. I don't understand."

Song Yan held onto his b.u.t.t, and chased after him.

Hearing the commotion, Xue Qingyan put down the book in his hands and walked out of the study room.

"Song Yan, you're thinking of getting beat up again, aren't you?"

Song Yan's face turned bitter, he pouted and said, feeling wronged, "Young Master, it was him who insisted on barging in, it's none of my business."

Xue Qingyan coldly glanced at Li Feng.

Li Feng immediately bowed, "Greetings Young Marquis, this subordinate is here on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince to pa.s.s down the order."

Hearing the words "Your Highness", Xue Qingyan subconsciously frowned.

"What decree?"

Li Feng was startled, and immediately bowed again, "The decree is for Miss Bai."

"The leopard is asleep. You can send it back tomorrow."

Hearing that it was for Bai Li, Xue Qingyan waved his hand to drive her away.

It will be spread tomorrow.

Li Feng looked at Xue Qingyan casually, "This subordinate has followed orders, I ask for Young Marquis's help."

The light in Xue Qingyan's eyes darkened, and his expression turned cold.

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a lazy voice sounded.

"What are you talking about if you don't sleep at night?"
