C450 Returning to the Starting Point

Yuan Zhen and Miao Yingyu had been back for a period of time. They had not been sure of Meng Qingdie's identity in the Palace, but they had often heard news about her in the past few days.

News spread in the Palace that she plotted against Concubine Shu and the heirs of the Imperial Family. Yu Longchen had already sentenced her to death.

Counting the days, the execution was today.

Although both of them had placed the other party in their hearts, they could not help but feel that there was something between them.

Miao Yingyu did not care that much, but Yuan Zhen did not. He did not say it out loud, but there were many things hidden in his heart.

In the beginning, Miao Yingyu would not care about him and would look for him to make him happy. Yuan Zhen had always been cold and indifferent, which made Miao Yingyu angry for a while. Now, she was too lazy to stick close to him.

"The Emperor wants to sentence Concubine Qing to death, is he telling us that Concubine Qing is not the Empress?" Miao Yingyu looked at Yuan Zhen seriously sharpening the medicine and could not help but ask.

Yuan Zhen did not even raise his head and his hands did not stop moving, "I don't know, maybe, maybe not."

"What kind of answer is this?!" Miao Yingyu suddenly jumped up and grabbed Yuan Zhen's arm. She did not let him grind the medicine. "What happened to you? You still haven't let go of what happened two years ago?!"

Yuan Zhen revealed a smile and did not say anything. I want you to think of me in the future. It is always my bad. That way, you won't be too sad.

"Yuan Zhen!" Miao Yingyu saw his indifferent attitude and became angrier in her heart. She frowned and said, "We are already married. What do you want me to do with you treating me like this?"

"You think too much." Yuan Zhen broke free of her hand and shook his sleeves. He continued to grind the herbs.

Miao Yingyu bit her lips. She would feel better if Yuan Zhen fought with her. She was most afraid of not saying anything and looking cold. She felt wronged in her heart and wiped her eyes as she walked out.

Yuan Zhen raised his head and looked at her back guiltily. In the end, he did not say a word of apology.

Not long after, Bai Ming entered the room and consciously sat beside Yuan Zhen. There was no emotion on his face. "I am here to tell you the whereabouts of Hongrao. She had removed her identity as Meng Qingdie and was now in the Imperial Palace. Be that person's Empress. "

Yuan Zhen's hands paused for a moment and replied, "Great Sect Leader came here and said these things to me. I wonder what he wants from me?"

"Hehe." Bai Ming looked at him and chuckled, as if he was saying that Yuan Zhen was overestimating himself. "You are worthless to me. From the beginning to the end, my goal has always been Hongrao."

"It's a pity that you will never be able to get her." Yuan Zhen lowered his head and glanced at him, "You can't enter the Imperial Palace so easily, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have set your sights on me."

"As far as I know." Bai Ming sat lazily and played with the medicinal herbs that were placed everywhere. "Hongrao went to the Yunmeng Meng Clan. The Patriarch of the Meng Clan is quite capable. He gave Hongrao three years to live. In total, Hongrao only woke up about four or five months ago. So in these two years, Hongrao didn't live a single life. "

Yuan Zhen stopped what he was doing and listened carefully.

Bai Ming threw down the medicinal herbs in his hands and also became serious. "The days are not long anymore. In these three years, there are only a few months left."

Yuan Zhen's energy was no longer focused on other things. He stared at Bai Ming.

Bai Ming's lips curled up and he smiled coldly. "Do you think Hongrao knows that she doesn't have much time left? Will she run away by herself and quietly bear everything like two years ago?"

"This time will not be! The Emperor will definitely not let her leave again." Yuan Zhen bit his muscle and seriously replied, "No matter what, this matter will not let you interfere!"

"Is that so!" Bai Ming looked surprised. "Your wife, so I told you that there are people in this world who can't die of old age?"

Yuan Zhen's mouth moved. He did not want to pursue this question. In the end, he still did not believe it. In the end, he replied, "The world is so big. What kind of strange things have never happened before?"

"I can help you. I can let you and your wife continue to live together. You don't need to suffer the pain of being separated by Yin and Yang. You can also help Hongrao. Let her live a good life. " Bai Ming stood up and said in a rare serious manner.

Yuan Zhen was a little surprised, but he still could not help but wonder, "Why?"

"You only need to know that I can do it better than you. I can give you more than you can."

Yuan Zhen stared at Bai Ming for a long time. In the end, he still shook his head. "No need, I can."

"Ha, idiot!" Bai Ming did not change his words. He could not help but scold, "You are too self-righteous."

"I don't know what Great Sect Leader wants to do, but I can't give the Empress to a devil!" Yuan Zhen stood up and refused decisively. "If Great Sect Leader isn't here to take my life, then let's go."

Bai Ming clenched his fists, and the killing intent in his eyes was obvious. In the end, he suppressed it and retreated angrily.

As soon as he arrived at Zhang Prefecture, Zhang Yi came out and greeted him, "Sect Leader, Madam Yuan is here. She is in the main hall."

Bai Ming's brows relaxed a little. He walked in and Miao Yingyu stood in the middle waiting for him. She threw away her clothes and sat down. "What is Madam Yuan doing here?"

"You know very well." Miao Yingyu's expression was not good. "The Empress is back. You must have made a move."

"You and that wooden husband of yours are really different. Those who recognize the situation are wise men." Bai Ming smiled happily.

"It's time for you to fulfill the promise you made two years ago." Miao Yingyu believed Bai Ming because she could see the love in his eyes for Mu Ruqing. Furthermore, even if Yuan Zhen had a deep estrangement with her, she also wanted him to live.

"But, how are you going to get past that person? Since Hongrao had escaped once, this time she definitely won't let Hongrao leave his sight." Bai Ming's smile froze on his face. This was also the most painful thing for him.

"But the Emperor will not let the Empress die like this. He clearly knows the way to save her but he did not use it. This is not the Emperor." Miao Yingyu said with confidence, "Even if he wants to use the Emperor's own life, he will still give it to him, right? This way, why would he worry about not coming into contact with the Empress? "

"In that case, it will be up to Madam Yuan." Bai Ming lowered his head to indicate, "In the Imperial Palace, Madam Yuan should also find an opportunity to go in and take a look!"

"En." Miao Yingyu turned around and was about to walk out when she suddenly stopped, "But, if I discover that you have other intentions, even if I have to pay with my life, I will not let you get what you want."

"Hehe." Bai Ming placed his fingertip on his thin lips and slightly tilted his head, not saying much.

Miao Yingyu thought about whether Bai Ming was trustworthy or not as she walked. He might really love Mu Ruqing, but how could she guarantee that he would save Mu Ruqing without any other request?

Even if Miao Yingyu knew all these, she still wanted to gamble. Both of them were important people to her. No matter who it was, as long as there was a trace of hope, she had to grasp it.

The current Bai Ming was the last hope between the two of them in her eyes.

After Miao Yingyu left, Bai Ming's expression was not as relaxed as before.

What exactly was he to Hongrao?

He pulled on more and more white hair at the side of his temples and his gaze slowly focused.
