Chapter 483 Rescue Plan
Chapter 483 Rescue Plan
"So I boldly guessed that Madam Xu only asked me to temporarily replace the young lady as a bride. After a while, if the young lady's health is better, she will let me and her take over. This way, no one will know and no one will be suspicious."
Pei Zhiyi frowned, still puzzled, "But she is fine, why did she suddenly ask your young lady to be the concubine of His Majesty the Night King?"
"Moreover, they didn't inform Tangtang in advance and just brought the person here in a sedan chair. How can you force someone into someone else's house like this?"
Ji Yuntang also felt that the motive of Zhong Changli and Xu was very strange.
When they first arrived, they called themselves Luo Junhe's father-in-law and mother-in-law, so it was clear that they didn't want Zhong Xinyu to be a concubine, but to make her the Princess of Ye.
If Zhong Xinyu was really scared crazy by Luo Junhe, and Luo Junhe made her the princess because he felt guilty about her, then she would most likely be divorced.
"Could it be that they want Ah He to divorce me?"
Ji Yuntang guessed this and felt that he might have discovered the truth!
It was clear that Zhong Changli and Xu's purpose was not against Luo Junhe, but against themselves.
These days, because she saved Luo Junhe and protected the Night Palace, she took advantage of some people's interests.
From the assassination a few days ago to the coming of Miss Sai Zhong now, this was all done deliberately by someone.
Ji Yuntang knew that Luo Jingshen had sent people to do the assassination, but he didn't know if he was also involved in the incident with Miss Zhong?
Thinking of this, Ji Yuntang asked: "Mingxia, when you came to marry in place of her, did Xu tell you anything?"
Ming Xia said: "Madam didn't say anything clearly. She just told me to go to the Night Prince's Mansion today no matter what, and then compete with the princess for her favor."
"It would be best if His Highness the Night King fell in love with me and divorced the Night King's Concubine..."
Ming Xia lowered her head as she spoke, which made Pei Zhiyi very angry.
"Is she crazy? Why does she think that His Royal Highness the Night King will fall in love with Miss Zhong and divorce Tangtang?"
Ji Yuntang sneered, "Perhaps, she felt that Miss Zhong was originally Ah He's legitimate wife, and I took her place."
"She thinks that now that Miss Zhong is here, I should give up my position as princess."
Ming Xia took over the conversation and said, "What the Queen Princess Ye said is correct. Madam Xu did say that. She said that if my young lady hadn't run away, the position of Princess Ye would never have fallen to you. She asked me to take the position of Princess back, even if I had to start as a concubine."
Ji Yuntang sneered in his heart, thinking that Xu was naive and ridiculous.
Not everyone can sit on the throne of the Night Princess. If you are not careful, you might even lose your life!
Knowing clearly that what Xu did was wrong and that Zhong Xinyu was seeking death by coming here, Zhong Changli still sent her here without hesitation. Why?
Thinking of the series of events that have happened recently, Ji Yuntang asked her.
"Has your master behaved abnormally in the past two days, or has he gone out to meet anyone?"
Mingxia thought for a moment and she really thought of something strange.
"Yes, it is true. The night before yesterday, our master went out all night and didn't come back until noon the next day."
"You know, Madam Xu is very strict on weekdays. If the master goes out to get drunk and visit a brothel and doesn't come back all night, Madam Xu will make a big fuss the next day and make him promise not to go again next time!"
"But that morning, Madam Xu surprisingly did not make a scene. Not only that, her face was full of rosy glow. Not only did she have more jewelry on her body, she also personally cooked a table of dishes for the master, and the two young masters also dined with them."
"They deliberately dismissed the servants when they were having dinner. I don't know what they talked about, but I saw that everyone looked very happy after the meal, as if something great had happened."
"That afternoon, Madam Xu personally came to see our young lady with a food box. Her expression was particularly gentle that day. This would have been impossible in the past."
"When she learned that our young lady was seriously ill and couldn't even get out of bed, she felt it was bad luck, so she left the food box and left!"
"Until the next day, Madam Xu asked her maid to call me to her room and showed me the wedding dress and tiara. I thought she wanted the young lady to get married, but I didn't expect that Madam Xu would actually ask me to help the young lady get married."
When Ji Yuntang heard this, he already had the answer in his mind.
"So, the reason why Xu Shi let your daughter get married is definitely related to the person your master went out to meet that night."
"I just don't know if that person knows that your master and mistress asked you, a maid, to marry in place of your young lady?"
Ming Xia lowered her head. "This... I don't know either."
Pei Zhiyi stepped forward and asked: "Tangtang, who do you think Zhong Changli went to meet that night?"
Ji Yuntang curled his lips, "I don't know either, but I am sure that this must be a big shot that Zhong Changli would risk his life to curry favor with."
Ji Yuntang probably already had a target person in mind, but she had no evidence.
She collected her thoughts, looked at Ming Xia and said to her: "Ming Xia, this princess can save your young lady, and can also let her escape from the Zhong Mansion and be with her beloved openly, but I also have a condition."
Ming Xia was delighted, and she quickly knelt on the ground and said, "As long as Princess Ye can save our young lady, I will agree to any conditions."
"Smile." Ji Yuntang pulled her up and said, "This matter, the princess needs your cooperation."
"Go back to the Zhong Mansion first and pretend that you were knocked unconscious and know nothing. Keep Xu and Zhong Changli calm first, and find out what they are talking about. Tell me, they will need you to replace Miss Zhong and marry at the Night Palace in two days, so there is no need to worry about your safety."
"Tonight at midnight, this princess will sneak into the Zhong Mansion to treat your young lady. I will need you to come out and help me then."
As Ji Yuntang spoke, he took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and gave it to Ming Xia.
"This is a drug that is colorless and tasteless. When you go back, mix it with water and give it to the servants who are watching over you and your young lady to drink. They will fall into a coma for two hours and wake up automatically after two hours. You don't have to worry about them getting suspicious."
"As for how to rescue your young lady, I have my own way. You just need to cooperate with me to get this done."
Ming Xia's eyes were moist. He took the drugs and put them in his arms, nodding repeatedly.
"I understand. I will definitely do as the princess asks."
Ji Yuntang nodded and asked Pei Zhiyi to send someone to take her to a place near the Zhong Mansion.
"Okay, I'll have someone take you back."
