Just like Bai Tinglan, Bai Zhiling was waiting for Baili Xing to come back and throw the letter at her face, but she didn't expect him to question her again.

Bai Zhiling frowned slightly.

Based on Baili Xing's anger when he left, it was unlikely that he wouldn't go to the palace to ask for a letter of rest. What was going on now?

"Your highness has already made up his mind. Why do you need to ask again?"

After Baili Xing calmed down, the more he saw Bai Zhiling's expression, the more he felt that something was off.

"You said that the wangfei asked you to bring the broth to this king's study?"

He nodded in confirmation.

Baili Xing's expression turned dark and he didn't say anything.

"Your Highness."

After a moment of silence, Baili Xing's personal guard entered the room.

Bai Tinglan looked at the guard and gasped.

Baili Xing rarely let his personal bodyguards appear in the backyard. Baili Xing's return from the palace had somehow made her panic.

"Your subordinate has already investigated."

"Speak!"

"Three days ago, there were indeed people from the Prince's Mansion who went to the pharmacy to buy that poison. Most of the poisons were used by the people from the Bai Family to kill ants, so when someone came to buy it, the people from the pharmacy did not suspect anything."

At this moment, Bai Zhiling came back from the moon that had just left and whispered a few words into her ear.

Bai Zhiling nodded without changing her expression.

"Have you found out who bought it?"

"It's an attendant that is looking at the horned gate." After the guard finished speaking, he waved his hand and the servant was escorted up.

He saw that the servant was a bit perplexed, and he obviously didn't know the man.

"Your Highness, have mercy! Your Highness, have mercy!" "This servant also bought it for others. This servant really doesn't know anything …"

However, Bai Tinglan's expression changed.

"Who told you to buy it?"

"This servant doesn't know who it is, but I can still recognize him when I see him."

"Go, bring all of the Lili from the palace here."

Baili Xing rarely cared about the matters in the backyard. If he went out personally, he would have to investigate everything thoroughly.

maidservant and the rest were quickly brought up. The manservant tremblingly went up to identify them and quickly found them.

"It's her, the prince is her. She was the one who paid the servant to buy it."

Bai Zhiling raised her head to look. It was none other than maidservantyu, the girl who had served Concubine Qing all those years ago.

Upon being identified, Yu'er's face immediately turned pale.

"My lord, please spare my life. This servant only wants to ask this servant to buy medicine for me because there are ants at home. I hope that my lord can investigate this clearly!"

Yu'er was a servant of the mansion, and my mother worked in the mansion. The mansion also had a yard for servants to live in, and Yu'er's family lived in that yard.

Baili Xing said with a cold expression. "Go and search!"

The guard moved quickly and returned quickly with a small paper bag containing the poison.

"From the facts, This King will leave you with an intact corpse!"

Yu'er had been scared senseless. With a pale face, she begged for mercy, but there was no way she could get rid of her accusation.

"Speak, who was the one who ordered you to do this?"

"Your highness, there's really no one that can order this servant around. Your servant really doesn't know why that thing would appear in this prince's broth …"

"And you, where did you get that poison?"

"Your servant, your servant is …"

Bai Zhiling watched from the side. If she didn't guess wrongly, it was very likely that Baili Xing didn't bring back the letter!

She was still thinking of getting the divorce papers first before clearing her suspicions. Now that there was no divorce papers, what was the point in waiting!

She looked at him coldly, lowered her voice and said, "Still dreaming of becoming Baili Xing's concubine? Wake up, even if it's a success, you'll only be able to become an abandoned child. If you don't want to die, then honestly tell me.

Bai Zhiling's words were like sharp swords stabbing into her heart.

She understood now that the situation had escalated to this point and the prince had even gone to court, but he still hadn't been able to do anything to her. It was clear that she really couldn't be underestimated.

But was it really possible to save them now?

"Ah …" Prince, please spare my life. This servant really doesn't know anything … Your servant is wronged … "

In a moment, Yu'er's piercing scream filled her ears, causing her to tremble in fear and turn pale.

She subconsciously looked towards Bai Tinglan, but Bai Tinglan was minding her own business and didn't notice her at all.

She seemed to understand that what the wangfei said might indeed be true.

Even if it did happen, what awaited her would not be the promised result.

If he helped the wangfei now, he might be able to keep his life. At the very least, he might be able to live …

"Your Highness, this servant will admit anything, this servant will admit anything!"

Seeing her heart in such a state, Bai Tinglan's hands subconsciously tightened under her sleeves.

"Someone ordered this servant, and it wasn't the wangfei who ordered this servant to deliver the broth to the prince's study."

Baili Xing looked at her. "Who is it?"

"This servant, this servant doesn't know who, but a black clothed man gave the powder to this servant and even fed the servant poison, saying that this servant would do as he said. If I don't do it, this servant will be poisoned to death, this servant has seen that man walk by the side of the imperial concubine, please spare me, Your Highness …"

"How dare you! You still want to bite my wife even at a time like this!" Bai Tinglan had always been careful when she did things. Naturally, she would not leave any evidence behind.

"Your servant … Your servant didn't lie. Your servant really saw that man appear by the side of the concubine's side …"

"You wrongly accused our princess consort, slandered our princess consort, and even tried to harm our prince. You deserve to die a thousand times for this crime!" Someone, drag her away and tear her into ten thousand pieces! " Bai Tinglan panicked a little and could only shout out loud. If she had known earlier, she would have taken them down and killed them!

"His entire body went limp and he collapsed onto the ground." "Spare me, your highness, please spare me …" "Esteemed wangfei, this servant knows that I was wrong. Please save this servant, I don't want to die …"

Bai Zhiling's eyelids twitched.

"Seeing that you've served me for a while, I'll leave you with an intact corpse."

He was completely dumbfounded this time.

She'd thought that no matter what, the wangfei would protect her life. Was it even useful for her to go back on her words now …

The answer, of course, is... Useless!

Before she could say a word, a guard had already rushed forward to stop her mouth and drag her out.

She could only stare at Bai Tinglan with wide eyes, unwilling to give up.

She regretted it. She really regretted it. If she had served the wangfei like a full moon, this wouldn't have been such a miserable ending!

Those who deserved to be punished had already been punished. Everyone in the manor was terrified, fearing that the matter would affect them.

Through this incident, the servants understood that this wangfei, who had been humiliated in all sorts of ways back then, was really not as simple as they thought!

They had originally been pushed to the bottom, but in the blink of an eye, they had somehow managed to turn things around. If this wasn't terrifying, then what was?

Bai Zhiling had been sitting here for a long time, thinking that she could get what she wanted. She did not expect to be happy for nothing. She could not help but feel disappointed. "Your Highness, if there's nothing else, chenqie will take her leave now."
