The daughter of the Marquis is too delicate, the abstinent prince pinches her waist and loves her

Chapter 94: Enormous Ability
Far away from the crowd, Linglong, wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, peeked out from behind a wall. Her slender fingers were tightly gripping the stone wall, and blood had been rubbed out from her fingertips.

She couldn't stop shaking all over, her face was defeated, looking at Bai Qianci kneeling on the stage, her eyes were red and swollen, tears overflowed: "Master..."

She spent all her savings before she found out in front of the Dali Temple that Bai Qianci had been acquitted. Before she could be happy, she saw him being taken to the Meridian Gate.

The butcher raised his knife and chopped off Bai Qianci's head.

Suddenly, everything went dark before her eyes, she lost consciousness and fainted on the ground.

Inside the palace, the eunuch looked at the clepsydra on the table and said softly, "Your Majesty, the Third Young Master Bai has been beheaded."

Ye Jinfeng, who was taking a nap on the dragon chair, responded softly, "Where is Duke Bai?"

The eunuch turned around and looked at his aunt. His aunt looked up and saw Duke Bai still kneeling on the ground outside the palace gate, letting the rain wash over him.

She sighed softly and shook her head at her father-in-law.

The eunuch bent down and reported: "Your Majesty, the Duke is still kneeling outside the palace."

"Give some compensation to the Duke's Mansion and appease them." Ye Jinfeng opened his eyes and said, "This time, the hatred between the Duke's Mansion and the Sheng family has been completely settled."

Bai Qianci's body was taken away by the Duke's Mansion and placed in a coffin. A funeral was held in the mansion, with white hangings everywhere.

Zhenbeihou Mansion, hall.

The housekeeper entered the room and reported to Sheng Yunqing: "Miss, the funeral gifts sent to the Duke's Mansion have been returned."

Before Sheng Yunqing could speak, Madam Sheng beside him frowned and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't want it. Just return it if you want."

Sheng Yunqing turned his head to Old Madam Sheng and said, "Aunt, should we tell my uncle about Bai Qianci?"

Madam Sheng pondered for a while, shook her head and said, "Your uncle is fighting on the front line, so don't be distracted. Wait until he comes back to tell me everything."

Sheng Yunqing nodded and said, "Auntie is very thoughtful."

In the mansion of Duke Bai, suona is played.

A woman in white stood alone in front of the door holding an umbrella.

After a long while, the guard beside him came over with a frown on his face and said, "Miss, my young master is having a funeral today, please don't make trouble and leave quickly."

Linglong raised her face, her pale face without a trace of makeup, and she said expressionlessly: "Tell the Duke that I am pregnant with the Third Young Master Bai's child."

Hearing this, the guards were filled with astonishment.

The funeral arrangements were completed and it was already late at night.

After the doctor checked Linglong's pulse, he bowed to Duke Bai and said, "Your Excellency, the young lady is indeed more than half a month pregnant. This is because she has been hit so hard recently that the fetus is unstable. If she wants to keep the baby, she needs to take good care of it."

Duke Bai looked at the letter Linglong gave him, and it was indeed Bai Qianci's handwriting.

Previously, Bai Qianci had found an insider among the Prime Minister of Ming Dynasty and had mentioned it to him.

He glanced at Linglong and said, "How do you know that the baby in your belly is my own flesh and blood?"

Linglong pursed her lips and said, "This servant has only had one man, Young Master Bai San. I was originally a lowly servant and should not have gotten pregnant with his child and brought shame to the young master. If I was pregnant, I should have had an abortion. I should not have shamelessly come to the Duke's Mansion. But before I could tell the young master, he..."

A tear flowed from her eyes, and she choked up and said, "The young master is only seventeen years old and has not yet married and had children. The fetus in my belly is his only flesh and blood. Whether to go or stay, I want to ask the Duke to decide. If he goes, I will take the child and go with the young master." Duke Bai thought about it and said, "I can redeem you from the Prime Minister's Mansion. This matter is of great importance. When you give birth to the child, we will drop blood to test your relationship. If it is really Qianci's flesh and blood, you will be included in the family tree, and you will be the third young lady of the Duke's Mansion. If not, I don't need to say more about the consequences."

Linglong looked up at Lord Bai, not afraid of his gaze, and said, "I dare not lie. I am hanging on for life just to protect the young master's flesh and blood. If I tell even a single lie, I will cut myself into pieces without any regrets."

"Don't talk so early." A tall and graceful woman slowly walked in from the door. She had a pair of narrow and beautiful eyes with a charming smile. Her white clothes could not hide her graceful figure like a willow.

The two maids at the door bowed to the woman and said, "Second Miss."

Duke Bai raised his eyes and looked at the teasing smile on the girl's face. He couldn't help but frowned: "Your brother is dead, and you can still laugh?"

Bai Muling was lazy and said in a light voice: "I was born with a smiling face. Does my father blame me?"

Duke Bai turned his face away in annoyance and said, "If it weren't for your idea, would your brother have become like this?"

Bai Muling frowned slightly and said, "I am also very sad about Qian Ci's death, but he was too careless."

She slowly stepped into the room and sat beside Duke Bai. She propped her chin on one hand and looked at her with dark and lively eyes. A hint of sarcasm flashed across her eyes. She snorted and said, "It's not a clean death to leave such a mess behind."

Linglong pinched the fabric on her skirt, bit the flesh on her lips tightly, lowered her head and said nothing.

Did she plan all this?

"Shut up, the baby she is pregnant with is most likely your brother's child!" Duke Bai scolded.

Bai Muling snorted disdainfully and said, "Really? Qian Ci is gone, and you came to me. Who can guarantee that you are not coveting the position of the young lady of the Bai family?"

"I can give up the status..." Linglong said.

"Okay, this is what you said."

Linglong was stunned for a moment, and a trace of reluctance flashed through her heart. Duke Bai had already promised her just now, and it was impossible for her not to be tempted by the position of young mistress now...

Bai Muling chuckled and raised her lips and said, "After you give birth to the child, how about staying in our house and continuing to be a maid?"

Linglong only pondered for a while, and Bai Muling sneered coldly.

She swallowed and frowned, "Second Miss Bai, Linglong, can I ask, will you still attack Sheng Yunqing?"

Bai Muling glanced at her contemptuously, too lazy to respond.

Linglong said again: "Ms. Bai Er is very intelligent. If the mansion does not give me a status, can I follow her?"

Hearing this, Bai Muling raised her eyebrows nonchalantly and asked, "Why?"

Linglong's eyes turned red, and she said, "If I could follow the young lady and see her kill Sheng Yunqing with my own eyes, I would have no regrets."

Bai Muling rolled her eyes and agreed, "Okay."

Linglong choked up and said, "Thank you Miss for your help..."

Bai Muling's fingers tapped regularly on the table and said, "I want to see what monstrous abilities that woman has."

"The Bai family should behave themselves recently and not be too ostentatious." Duke Bai said in a deep voice.

Bai Muling narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I know my limits."
