This Lady Is Trying to Kill Me

The deposed emperor was the legitimate successor of Great Wei, and it would definitely be a huge disaster if he didn’t die. Whether it was vassal princes or enemy countries, as long as they could get him, they might be able to support a puppet emperor of Great Wei and legitimately attack the empress.

Eunuch Cao was a die-hard loyalist of Great Wei, and he was equivalent to the late emperor’s trusted minister. His disciple had appeared in the capital, and what he wanted to do was most likely related to the deposed emperor.

Through these clues and guesses, a vein gradually appeared in Ye Jingtang’s mind. The Prince of Wu had won over the remnants of the deposed emperor and wanted to restore the orthodox lineage of Great Wei. But he was not strong enough, so he approached the Pacifying Heaven Cult to discuss cooperation.

Even if the Pacifying Heaven Cult agreed, the Prince of Wu, who was surrounded on three sides, didn’t dare to raise his banner and proclaim himself emperor. Thus, he needed a proper cause.

If the deposed emperor were in the hands of the Prince of Wu, the Prince of Wu could use the name of ‘supporting Great Wei’ to incite the other vassal princes to crusade legitimately against the empress, who had usurped the throne.

Therefore, the Prince of Wu had arranged for many special agents to come to the capital to operate secretly in an attempt to take the deposed emperor away.

Ye Jingtang’s reasoning was a little hasty, but it seemed very likely at the moment.

However, he didn’t have any evidence. He couldn’t confirm if this speculation was true, and he still had to continue investigating…

While deep in thought, the man and bird returned to Dye Workshop Street.

It was already late at night, and there was no one on Dye Workshop Street, which was still under reconstruction.

When Ye Jingtang entered Double Osmanthus Alley, he smelled the faint smell of medicine coming from the depths of the alley. After thinking for a moment, he walked quietly outside the courtyard wall, wanting to see what Elder Sister Ning’er was doing.

The door of the main room was closed, and there was a faint sound of breathing. It seemed that Yunli had fallen asleep.

In the west wing, where he slept, the lights were on, but there was no sound. From the silhouette on the window paper, he could only see a tall woman standing in front of the bronze mirror. She was rotating her body left and right to size it up and even used her hand to shake the little watermelons…

Tap, tap-

?!

Ye Jingtang was slightly stunned. He stopped the bird from entering the courtyard and instructed it to guard the entrance of the alley. Then he landed in the courtyard with his extraordinary movement technique and went to his room…

Earlier…

After Luo Ning returned from outside the city, she made dinner and boiled the medicine she had bought from Madam Wang.

After they finished the meal and Yunli did her homework, Luo Ning saw that Ye Jingtang had not returned yet, so the two of them went to bed first.

But if the man didn’t come home at night, he might even be having fun on the dragon bed with the princess. How could Luo Ning, who had been with the little thief for so long, sleep?

After tossing and turning without feeling sleepy, Luo Ning got up, went to the west wing, sat down by the bed, took out the small silk bag from under the clothes at her bosom, and sized it up.

The palm-sized silk bag contained two sets of smallclothes, totalling four pieces. The total amount of fabric used might not even be as much as a pair of pants.

Luo Ning took out a folded upper garment from inside and examined it. It looked like a black triangular handkerchief. She didn’t know how it was woven, but it was cut-out. Other than the two peony flowers covering the key points, the other parts were at most decorative, giving a clear view…

Luo Ning’s cold face revealed a hint of distaste. She took out the matching panties and looked at them. It was the same design. Not only were they mostly cut-out, but they couldn’t even cover her butt…

How immoral!

How can women wear such things…

After all, Luo Ning was from a prestigious family in Jiang Province and was the cult mistress of the Pacifying Heaven Cult. No matter what, she could be considered the wife of a wealthy and powerful Jianghu family. When she saw courtesans wearing such shameful smallclothes, she got goosebumps all over her body. She wanted to throw them away so that the little thief wouldn’t see them and harm her.

But they were so expensive…

The workmanship is indeed not bad. They’re seamless, and the texture is excellent…

Why don’t 1 let Third Lady wear them? She’s more coquettish…

No, isn’t this sending supplies to the enemy…

Luo Ning sized up the unsightly smallclothes for a moment. Although she felt aversion in her heart, no one would see. After thinking about it, she stood up, took off her blue dress and undergarment, covered the little watermelons with the triangular piece of gauze, and tied the strings behind her back and neck.

After putting it on, Luo Ning stood gracefully in front of the bronze mirror and looked around. Her gaze landed on the little watermelons’… umm… southern hemispheres…

Luo Ning frowned. She felt that there was a shameless, lecherous seductress in the mirror. If Baijin saw her, she would point at her head and scold her for being indecent. Only the little thief’s eyes would shine…

Luo Ning raised her hand and shook the little watermelons. To her surprise, she found that this small undergarment looked indecent, but the wrapping feeling was not bad. After thinking about it, she picked up the palm-sized panties, put them on, and tied bows on the sides of her round butt.

After putting them on, before Luo Ning could appreciate them, she heard footsteps coming from the courtyard and the little thief’s quiet voice.

“Heroine Luo?”

?!

Luo Ning was so shocked that her shoulders trembled slightly. She hurriedly pulled her dress over and whispered, “Yunli just fell asleep. I made you some medicine. It’s in the kitchen…”

Squeak!

Just as she picked up the dress, the door was pushed open.

Luo Ning might as well be naked now. Seeing this, she hurriedly rolled onto the bed and covered her body with the thin blanket, her eyes slightly terrified. “Little thief, I’m changing my clothes. Don’t come in…”

Ye Jingtang pushed open the door and saw fair beauty rolling into the blanket.

After a slight pause, he continued in and closed the door..
