Chapter 344 Discriminating the Rewards and Punishments (2/2)
When she was in the North Tower, she seldom went out and was a self-respecting woman. How come… did she assassinate the concubine?
Suddenly, a detail came into her mind.
She remembered her Master once said that her sister had brought her along, when she sent medicine to the prince.
Maybe——
Gosh! It must have been a fond dream!
“Now that your sister is dead, I can forget about everything else. But you have to keep in mind that if there is another traitor in the North Tower, you, as the chief, will be solely punished. Besides, inform everyone who belongs to Four Saint Guards that if they run into the concubine, they have to protect her, in secret. Your sister’s death was not only because she tried to assassinate the concubine. The last time you were in the royal palace, the news was leaked out. Your sister’s body has been placed in a mortuary located outside the capital. It is up to you how you want to deal with it.”
Long Tianyu’s cold eyes shifted, but his tone was still extremely cold. But he still accorded some respect to Master Bamboo.
“Yes! Bamboo appreciates it that you haven’t taken my life.”
Master Bamboo stopped then. Ever since she was young, she had been adopted by the former Captain Bamboo.
If she hadn’t accidentally found that Mei was her blood sister a few years ago, she wouldn’t have risked taking her along.
But now, her sister almost made her die because of her own greed.
Her heart turned completely cold.
“Here—”
In the middle yard, Long Tianyu’s figure had already disappeared.
Those who were on guard outside, went in secretly.
Master Bamboo had already turned around, and no one could see the horrifying bruises on her delicate, pale face.
“Prince, I heard from the soldiers outside the capital that a mortuary had been set on fire today. All the corpses stored there were severely burnt.”
In Long Tianyu’s study, Lin Kui reported to Long Tianyu, with his hands clasped.
“Well, I know it now.”
With a military book in hand, Long Tianyu acted as if he had never heard about it before this.
He knew it had been done by Bamboo without any second thoughts.
That woman’s body must be one of those burnt.
But it was also a good way to deal with it. To be frank, Plum had also been used. The one who planned all these must be safe and intact.
“How is the concubine? Is she asleep now?”
Long Tianyu never cared for those who was irrelevant to him.
Then he started to ask about Lin Mengya’s condition.
“Well— I don’t know much about her either. But it is noisy and lively in Liuxin Courtyard, anyway.”
Speaking of this, Lin Kui’s expression turned a bit strange.
He had never felt it before, but during the month the concubine was away, even he, the servant, felt uncomfortable, not to mention the prince.
It felt like she was a clingy child. When she was with you, you felt annoyed. When she was gone, you felt a hole in your heart.
Though the concubine came from a big family, she was smart and naughty. Wherever she was, no one would feel bored in her company.
“What’s happening now? Let go and have a look.”
The military book was easily set aside on the table in front of him.
Looking at how interested Long Tianyu was, Lin Kui did not want to stop him.
In the darkness, they went over rapidly. Smoothly, they arrived at the wall of Liuxin Courtyard.
There was a peaceful and happy atmosphere inside.
But even Long Tianyu could not understand what his concubine was doing.
“You, move it there. Right, to the northwest corner of the courtyard. Be careful. Don’t scratch it.”
Baizhi was very happy and acted as the director, in the yard.
She directed the servants and guards in the yard hastily and happily.
Her face was flushed, but she still looked very cheerful. She seemed to have found her calling.
“Master, you have just come back. Why don’t you have a good rest today. After all, these things can be done later, right?”

Baiji was with Lin Mengya and asked in confusion.
This afternoon, her Master who had just woken up, wanted to have a new look for the yard, and started rearranging everything.
Everything in Liuxin Courtyard had been decorated by Qinghu and Childe Yu. Even the Imperial Palace was not as exquisite as the small yard.
She could not understand why the concubine wanted to do it.
“Silly girl, if we do not do any redecoration, how will we welcome in the New Year? The New Year should start with new sights, right?”
Lin Mengya drank the tea and gave Baiji an ambiguous answer.
But the glow in those beautiful eyes made it much more mysterious.
