Rebirth: Marry a General instead of a Prince Chapter 241 Trick 2

The temple was so quiet that the usually bustling Puhua Temple seemed empty at this moment. Only the sound of one or two cold winds blowing broke the silence.

Bai Zhiyuan raised his lips in mockery, looked around, and said, "Miss Shen, where is the Queen?"

Shen Zhiyi's eyebrows revealed a proud look, and he said: "There is no such thing as a queen. I brought you here on purpose."

Bai Zhiyuan's expression showed no emotion, and he said calmly, "I had already guessed it. I just heard that the Queen Mother was seriously ill, and it was unexpected for the Queen to not stay by her side and meet me at this hour. In addition, there are some grievances between Miss Shen, Princess Changle, and me. After a little thought, I understood."

Shen Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Then why did you come here?"

Bai Zhiyuan pulled out a stool, sat on it, played with the cup in his hand, and said, "Because I want to know how you will deal with me. Instead of waiting for your next conspiracy, I might as well take the initiative this time."

Shen Zhiyi choked, and suddenly a strong sense of uneasiness arose in his heart.

Bai Zhiyuan put down the cup in his hand and sneered, "Miss Shen, you and I finally have the friendship of living together in the North. But you challenge my patience again and again, and I really don't like it. Before, you pretended to want me to accompany you to collect herbs, but in fact you wanted to leave me under Wanxiang Mountain to be attacked by wild beasts. Later, when you returned to the North, you dared to put your mind on Xie Yunsong, and even went back to Beijing to ask for the Queen Mother's handwritten letter, hoping to separate me and Xie Yunsong. Now, you have used the same trick again and lured me here, again and again, I really can't stand it anymore."

"But..." Bai Zhiyuan changed the subject: "How dare you attack me in front of everyone in Puhua Temple? Tell me! Is it the Queen Mother who wants to kill me this time or the Queen?"

Shen Zhiyi could not hide his shock, and then pretended to be calm and said: "What if you guessed it? Anyway, you are already here, and now the doors and windows are locked. Even if you have great abilities, you are just a trapped beast, and you can't escape even if you have wings."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled instead of getting angry: "Really? I'm trapped here now, what about you? Aren't you the same as me? But how are you going to get out?"

Shen Zhiyi said proudly: "Miss Bai, don't worry about this. I have my own way."

Bai Zhiyuan smiled contemptuously and said, "Miss Shen, don't just focus on making wedding dresses for others, and end up with nothing in the end."

In terms of intelligence, Shen Zhiyi could not compare with Bai Zhiyuan, who lived a second life. When she heard Bai Zhiyuan's words, she could not help but feel a little doubtful although she had full trust in him.

She didn't say anything, but glanced at the window beside her, but she only glanced at it for a moment, then she felt relieved again.

This action only took a moment, but was quickly captured by Bai Zhiyuan.

She understood in her heart that this window must be Shen Zhiyi's escape route.

Originally, she didn't know that these people would attack her today, but today's facts were really strange, so it was no wonder that she thought too much. First, Xie Yunsong was sent away from her, and then Shen Zhiyi and Princess Changle tricked her into this place. If she still didn't understand anything, she would be too stupid.

Today's incident was closely related to the Queen Mother. She didn't understand yesterday why the Queen Mother had to go up the mountain to pray for blessings at this time when it was freezing cold. It turned out that she was coming for her. It seemed that, as Xie Yunsong said, she went to the palace to see the emperor that day, and finally made the Queen Mother and the Emperor want to eliminate her. However, they were afraid that they would not be able to do so today.

After figuring it out, Bai Zhiyuan was no longer in a hurry. She guessed the whole story and now wanted to know how they were going to kill her without anyone noticing?

Bai Zhiyuan stared at Shen Zhiyi without blinking. Shen Zhiyi felt uneasy and trembled. He asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I was wondering how you would kill me today? You don't have any martial arts skills. You don't have any chance of poisoning me. So there is only one way, which is to trap me here and set a fire. Right, Miss Shen?"

Shen Zhiyi took a step back suddenly, his eyes full of disbelief, his fingers trembling as he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and said, "It seems that I guessed right."

After a while, Shen Zhiyi calmed down again. She said sinisterly: "You are really smart!"

Bai Zhiyuan chuckled: "I smelled the scent of incense as soon as I came in. If I'm not mistaken, this is a kind of drug. There is an empty room but incense is lit. Your plan is really full of loopholes."

Shen Zhiyi was shocked and frightened, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Bai Zhiyuan shook his head again, and said with regret: "When I first met you, Miss Shen was a pure, gentle and virtuous woman. Why did you become so vicious and narrow-minded now?"

Her words seemed to hurt Shen Zhiyi. Shen Zhiyi gritted her teeth, and a vicious light suddenly burst out from her eyes. She said coldly: "I am like this now because of you. Before you appeared, I followed Yun Song, and he never rejected me. Since you appeared, he can no longer tolerate others. He rejected me again and again, and even hated me. I am not willing to accept it. I have paid so much for him. I always thought he would marry me, but because of you, I lost everything."

"Tell me, how can I not hate you? On Wanxiang Mountain, I only hated myself for not being more ruthless and letting you die in the mouth of the beast. But Yunsong ran to save you eagerly. I was unwilling to accept it. No one can watch their things being taken away and remain indifferent. I returned to Beijing and told the Queen Mother everything about you. The Queen Mother was furious and wrote that letter, threatening Xie Yunsong that if he dared to continue to be with you, then you and your family would suffer a catastrophic disaster."

"The Queen Mother knew very well what Xie Yunsong feared the most. What he feared the most was losing you. But he had to lose you, and could only let me play a trick to drive you away. I thought I succeeded, but after you left, he lost his appetite and would not let me get close to him. I could not even see him. He locked himself in his tent every day, only focusing on studying the art of war. Later, he succeeded, and successfully defeated the Northern Di, and was able to return to Shangjing and return to you."

Shen Zhiyi became more and more sad as she spoke, and finally she even cried silently: "I love him so much, how am I inferior to you? Why is there never me in his eyes? I hate you, I wish you would die right now——"

Bai Zhiyuan was shocked. It turned out that there were many things she didn't know. On that day in the northern border, she was indeed moved by Shen Zhiyi and broke off all ties with Xie Yunsong. But she later realized that it must be the Queen Mother who threatened her to force Xie Yunsong to give up her. She didn't expect that the Queen Mother would threaten the lives of her entire family to force Xie Yunsong to leave her.

Bai Zhiyuan was shocked and angry. She clenched her fists until the stinging sensation in her palms made her calm down a little. She said, "Xie Yunsong never rejected you because he didn't care about you at all. You were never in his eyes, let alone his heart. How could he bother about someone who had nothing to do with him? From the beginning to the end, it was just your wishful thinking."

"Shut up!" Shen Zhiyi shouted angrily: "I want you to die——"

"Hahaha——" Soon, Shen Zhiyi laughed like a madman, "You will die today. I'm not the only one who wants to kill you this time. Everyone wants you dead. Only when you die can Yun Song see me."

Bai Zhiyuan's expression remained unchanged and he looked unconcerned, but he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a figure outside the window. This figure looked like Princess Changle who had just disappeared.

Bai Zhiyuan's heart moved, his eyes showed ridicule, and he curled his lips and sneered, "I'm afraid I can't do what you want today."

Shen Zhiyi was stunned. Before she could react to Bai Zhiyuan's meaning, she saw Bai Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and knocked her unconscious with a palm.

Then she quickly walked to the window and knocked gently.

The person outside paused at first, then opened the window happily. The moment she saw that it was Bai Zhiyuan, her face was full of surprise.

But Bai Zhiyuan didn't give her any time to react. She pulled her into the house with force, then jumped out of the window and locked the window again, completely ignoring the vague clapping sounds coming from Princess Changle in the house.

As soon as she entered the house, she noticed that there was some strange incense burning in the house. Fortunately, Xie Yunsong had been worried about her these days and ordered Cheng Beixiao to put some medicine bags on her to protect her from the drugs and incense, so she would not fall into their trap.

When she saw Princess Changle wandering outside, she completely lost her patience. These two crazy women, let them reap what they sow.
