Bai Yutang quickly frowned, "The guards around Zhenzhen came back first today, but some people want to do such dirty things as forced marriage?"
"I'm also very curious, but Zhenzhen has been feeling unwell since she came back. She even fainted after hearing these rumors. Dairou is worried and has been keeping watch."
"Zhenzhen fainted?!" Bai Yutang was shocked and raised his legs to walk outside.
"Don't be anxious. The doctor has seen it, but she's just out of breath." The old lady still said in a non-hurried tone, "Don't try to squeeze her. Don't worry about Dairou taking care of her."
"Now we want to find out who dares to slander the third young lady of the Bai family, or the emperor's beloved Lord of Kangle County." The old lady raised her eyes, with a cold light in her eyes, "If this spreads out, others will think that the Bai family is trying to Resist the decree."
Ginkgo is not allowed to marry. This is the emperor's oral decree and it is recorded in the record.
If they had dealt with it first, it would naturally be a family matter, but if word got out, there was no guarantee that someone wouldn't take the opportunity to cause trouble and cause trouble for the Bai family to resist the order.
Bai Yutang's heart trembled, and he solemnly said: "My son understands!"
Among the twelve guards, two injured people were under the care of doctors the whole time and had no chance to pass. Among the remaining ten, Pang Yang came back with Ging Guo and had no chance to pass.
"Bring the other nine people over to me and explain their whereabouts one by one!" After Bai Yutang said to the people around him, he sat down below the old lady, and a maid quickly brought tea.
Bai Yutang didn't move, his face was full of anger.
The old lady slowly picked up the tea cup and took another sip.
…
At the door of the Imperial Study Room, the young eunuch hurriedly walked over and whispered a few words to Su Qing, then quickly backed away.
Su Qing's face became serious, she bent down and stepped into the imperial study room and called softly, "Your Majesty."
"Say." Xuanxian didn't take his eyes away from the memorial.
"News came from outside the palace. King Dingxi led his people to attack Prince Gong's Mansion. Many guards in Prince Gong's Mansion were injured. Prince Gong was also injured in bed by King Dingxi. He just came to the palace and sent the imperial doctor." Su Qing said in a steady voice. But my heart was full of shock.
King Dingxi came down from the battlefield, and the emperor allowed King Dingxi to leave five thousand soldiers and horses with him to guard the palace of Dingxi.
And these five thousand people are all good soldiers in the army, and they are more than enough to defeat the mighty guards of Prince Gong's palace.
It’s just that who doesn’t know that King Dingxi and Prince Gong have a good relationship, but after the Lord of Kangle County sent a dog, King Dingxi went directly to Prince Gong’s Mansion...
"Good fight." Xuanxian didn't even raise his head.
Su Qing choked on her words when she wanted to speak.
"Is there anything else?" Xuanxian noticed and looked up.
"Yes... the Lord of Kangle County sent the fifth princess's fierce dog to the Dingxi Palace before leaving." Su Qing pointed out.
"Yeah." Xuan Xian responded without any anger, "One more time."
"Ah?" Su Qing was at a loss. What's the difference?
"Get out." Xuanxian said coldly.
Su Qing was shocked and hurriedly took two steps back and left the imperial study.
The emperor has no intention of punishing the Lord of Kangle County, but he does want to blame him for talking too much!
…
Gingguo was lying on the bed, drinking the soup that Ni Dairou fed him spoonful by spoonful.
"But what happened?" Bai Guo looked at Ni Dairou, "My mother stayed with me all night long and never left."
"Your grandmother will let you go in three days." Ni Dairou's eyes were almost filled with tears again, "I'm worried about you."
"Don't hide anything from me, mother. You have already been sad about this matter." Bai Guo lowered his eyes and drank the medicine handed to his mouth.
Ni Dairou is not an ordinary boudoir girl. She may get red-eyed once knowing that she leaves, but she will never be sad all the time.
Ni Dairou smiled coquettishly and then said, "You made too much noise in the palace today, but your grandmother wouldn't let me talk about you."
Bai Guo laughed after hearing this.
"Don't ask, mother. This has already happened today, and I have offended everyone who offended me." Ginguo drank the last sip and looked at Ni Dairou: "Why don't you go back and take a nap, mother?"
Ni Dairou shook his head.
Bai Guo frowned, "But something happened at home? Is Prince Gong here? Or is it Prince Dingxi? The Fifth Princess?"
Ni Dairou touched Gingguo's hair and said, "None of them."
Her daughter is only thirteen years old, but she is uneasy about being born like this.
"Some slaves are rumoring that there is some confusion between you and guard Pang Yang. Don't worry, mother has already controlled the person. It's just that the mother who spread the rumors doesn't want to do it herself."
"But Aunt Xue?" Bai Guo looked at Ni Dairou.
Of the two aunts in the family, one was brought up from the common room and would not go out of the yard except to greet Ni Dairou.
Ni Dairou nodded and touched Gingo's silky hair, "Don't ask about this matter. Just go to the palace as usual tomorrow to pay my respects."
Ging Guo nodded.
The next morning when Ging Guo woke up, it was just dawn. Bie Xia brought the little maid in to wash Ging Guo.
"What happened in the house yesterday?" Bai Guo looked at Bie Xia.
"Aunt Xue was locked up in her own yard yesterday. Some people said she would be sold out this morning." Bie Xia's voice was very soft.
Ging Guo glanced at Bie Xia and said nothing.
After entering the palace, Bai Guo went to the Queen Mother's courtyard. After greeting the Queen Mother, Queen Bai Guo said: "My daughter grew up in my second uncle's house. This time, I should go to celebrate my birthday."
The Queen Mother fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand, and after half a cup of tea, she said: "The Queen is sick today."
Ginkgo lowered his eyes, "I don't know, my servant."
"I don't know?" The Queen Mother sneered, "Now the courtiers are spreading the news about the discord between the emperor and the empress. You really don't know?!"
"My daughter is a concubine, and she doesn't know anything about the affairs of the courtiers."
Bai Guo lowered his head slightly, and the tail of his originally slightly raised eyes looked particularly arrogant in such a respectful gesture, "If the Queen Mother suspects that it was the maiden who instigated it, then the maiden is wronged. The discord between the emperor and the empress is not good for the maiden. , I have no reason to provoke."
"There's no benefit?" The Queen Mother looked at Bai Guo, "There's no benefit. Why does the emperor praise you so much?!"
"The Queen Mother, the harem is not a place that all women aspire to be. Moreover, if the emperor really promoted his daughters because of the love between men and women, then why didn't he include his daughters in the harem from the beginning?"
Bai Guo no longer lowered his head and raised his eyes to look up, "Queen, your Majesty knows it in your heart, and your Emperor knows it in your heart. If that's the case, why should you direct the situation to your daughter?
History books record that a dynasty was overthrown by Daji, but could a powerful country really fall because of the discord between the emperor and the empress? Some things are clear to the empress, clear to the courtiers, and clear to all the people. "
"Now that this rumor can spread, it's just because some people want this rumor to spread. Only by spreading it can we ensure that her interests are maximized."
When news of the discord between the emperor and the empress spread, someone would label her a succubus or a vixen.
Then he led a group of people to destroy the demon, save the country, and make the emperor sober to show the ugliness in his heart.
The person who released the news can just sit back and watch the development of the situation.
She didn't need to do anything, someone would help her do it to the best of her ability.
"The emperor's praise for his ministers is appreciation, affection, sympathy, affection in times of adversity, and the care of the elders for the younger ones. It is not the only kind of love between men and women in the eyes of the world."
Bai Guo looked at the Queen Mother, "I'm here to say goodbye today, not to argue with the Queen Mother. In three days, I will leave for Fengzhou early in the morning, and the Queen Mother no longer needs to waste time on me."
Almost immediately following Bai Guo's words, the nanny outside walked in quickly and said, "Eunuch Su Qing is here, saying that the emperor has invited the Lord of Kangle County to come over."
The Queen Mother turned the Buddha dial quickly in her hand and turned it around twice before saying in a calmer voice: "Go ahead."
Bai Guo stood up and saluted, "My maid, please leave."
After coming out, he saw Su Qing waiting. Bai Guo was no longer saluting, so he called out: "Eunuch Su."
Su Qing immediately stepped forward with a smile, "The Emperor is waiting for you."
Gingo smiled and nodded in response.
Su Qing led the way, and Bai Guo followed to the imperial study. Bai Guo stepped directly over the threshold and walked in.
"Your Majesty, I wish you well." Bai Guo bowed.
"Hmph!" Xuan Xian sneered, "What happened to make you be so careful?"
Hearing that the emperor was not angry, Bai Guo stood up directly and sat on a stool to the side.
"I've caused a lot of things." Bai Guo sighed and asked, "What did the emperor ask me to do?"
"You want to go back to Fengzhou." Xuanxian was no longer reading the memorial, looking at Ginguo with cold eyes, and the noble Jiulong uniform on his body showed his majesty.
"I want to do business, and the only safe place with business opportunities is Fengzhou."
She has offended a lot of people, and there is no guarantee that someone will not see through her identity and join forces with local officials to kill her.
But Fengzhou is different.
The second uncle is a relative.
"I called you here today because I wanted to remind you, so that you don't get seduced by that kid and start a big fuss with me." Xuanxian sneered, "Cherish your life and don't go down the same old path. It’s just causing trouble.”
Bai Guo nodded, "This is natural."
What's more, her love for Yan Ren in her previous life had worn off in the last year.
"The emperor didn't kill Yan Ren because of his talents. I will try to guide him this time. It will be good if he can be used."
Yan Ren's home is the General's Mansion. All the men in the General's Mansion were killed on the battlefield, and only one female family member, Yan Ren's mother, was holding on.
And Yan Ren is the only son.
If he really kills Yan Ren directly, he will fall behind in terms of benevolence and righteousness.
"It goes without saying that I am so merciful." Xuan Xian sneered, "I am not afraid of killing thousands of troops on the battlefield, how can I be so kind to him?!"
"If you want to put in the trouble, just go ahead and make it clear. If you are deceived by him again, I will kill him!" Xuan Xian looked at Bai Guo.
Ging Guo chuckled.
This is not mercy.
"Ging Guo understands!" Bai Guo stood up and saluted, "Then Ging Guo is leaving."
Xuan Xian nodded, watched Bai Guo take two steps back, and then said, "Take all the people I gave you."
Ging Guo nodded.
It’s a long journey, so it’s your responsibility to bring some with you.
Xuan Xian waved his hand again.
Ging Guo exited the imperial study room.
Su Qing stood respectfully at the door and heard Bai Guo ask: "Is Prince Gong recovering from his injuries in the mansion?"
Su Qing was startled, glanced inside the royal study, and then said hesitantly: "Yes, the imperial doctor visited me yesterday."
"Which imperial physician is it?" Bai Guo looked at Su Qing.
The veil almost covered her emotions, but her eyes revealed them without any concealment.
Su Qing's eyelids jumped wildly and she didn't know whether she should answer or not.
"Kang Le, let's change the question. How many imperial doctors came out of the palace yesterday?" Gingo's eyes were bottomless.
"..." Su Qing still didn't dare to reply.
"Don't be too presumptuous." A medium-pitched voice came from the royal study room, and there was no hint of joy or anger.
Su Qing was so shocked that she knelt on the ground.
Bai Guo smiled and said, "My daughter only has three days left in Kyoto, so she is quite anxious."
There was no sound coming from inside. Bai Guo pulled Su Qing up from the ground, "Don't worry, Eunuch Su, Kang Le just wants to ask about Prince Gong's injury."
