As soon as Bai Mingzhu heard about the drama, she immediately turned around and ordered Bai Ling to pass on the message.
Unexpectedly, before Bai Ling got off the carriage, the little yellow gate over there raised his hand to stop him and said seriously:
"We still don't know what Princess Danyang's reply is, so you and your maid are not allowed to pass."
When Bai Ling retracted his foot angrily, he couldn't help but choked and said:
"Then, young father-in-law, you should send someone to find Princess Danyang to find out. Otherwise, the princess will be impatient and take the first step. My young lady will be forced to search her body when the time comes. Will you be responsible for it?"
The Little Yellow Gate is in front of the palace every day, and you don't know how many dignitaries you will meet in one day. Because of the golden words of Emperor Xuande and the various systems of the previous dynasty. So among them, there really wasn't much he needed to be afraid of.
Not to mention, the master and servant in front of them had never even been to the palace gate themselves.
He glanced at Bai Ling with disdain and sneered back:
"Hey, it turns out that the eldest lady of your house is so different, even more extraordinary than the princess and Mrs. Haoming. Then I wonder what you have to rely on? It's a pity that the Za family does things according to the rules, and can only do things without seeing anything. A wooden man with pearls. A noble man with no evidence, but our family can't see it."
This was a polite way of saying it. If it hadn't been for the fact that the other party was brought into the palace by Princess Danyang, it would have been more harsh.
Bai Mingzhu was squeezed and ridiculed over and over again by the little doorkeeper, and no matter how good-tempered she was, she couldn't help but get angry.
And although she has a reputation as a virtuous person, she is not really such a generous person in nature. The successive stimulations made her whole body tremble with anger. After sneering frequently, he replied eloquently:
"This father-in-law is so selfless. Just take me for a body search. When I see my cousin later, I should put in a good word for my father-in-law."
Although Xiaohuangmen is not afraid of powerful dignitaries or the aloof royal concubines and relatives, the name of Princess Danyang is enough to scare him.
Not for anything else, just because he was afraid of this lawless little ancestor. If he didn't get his way, he would kill him on the spot to vent his anger. And this worry is not an exaggeration at all.
Princess Danyang grew up in the palace. No matter what trouble she caused, Emperor Xuande never got angry and punished her.
Not to mention that they don't dare to offend little shrimps like them, even the nobles in the harem, even the beloved concubines like Concubine Jing, will not confront them head-on.
Therefore, Bai Mingzhu's angry threat really hit the weak point of everyone in front of the door.
Although Xiao Huang Men'er was unwilling to do so, for the sake of his own safety, he had to soften his tone and said with a smile:
"Wait a moment, the Za family has already sent someone to ask, and there should be a reply soon."
As he was talking, he was dressed in green and looked like a lower-ranking chamberlain. He quickly rushed to the carriage of the Duke's Mansion where everyone was gathered. After bowing respectfully to the small yellow gate, he spoke:
"The princess's instructions were sent by someone close to her to convey them."
As he said that, the young chamberlain stepped aside so that everyone could see the maid who came with him behind him.
Because the color of this maid's clothes was very similar to that of the maids in the palace, it was not until this moment that everyone discovered that the person following the little chambermaid was not a maid.
After taking a second look, Bai Mingzhu suddenly remembered that this girl should be one of the people who sat in the same carriage as Danyang and set off together.
Because she felt that she had a few people with her at that time, she wanted to bring three people to serve Danyang. She could lend her one to move the footstool when getting in and out of the carriage, or to help carry some things.
Unexpectedly, the other party refused without even thinking about it!
And the reason he used was that he had a gun and a stick, something like "The maids who are rough messengers in the princess's house have bad appearance and demeanor. It is not good to tarnish cousin Ying's image. It is better to let them follow me."
When Bai Mingzhu recalled this scene, her heart seemed to be frying in a frying pan when she thought of her current situation and the dilemma of having to rely on Danyang to break the situation.
He didn't even want to look at her. She was indeed a tall and rough-looking maid.
Bai Ling understood his master's thoughts, and while helping Bai Mingzhu's hand to get out of the car, he urged the maid who was pushed forward by everyone, saying:
"You maid, you don't look smart, are you still mute? Princess Danyang asked you to deliver the message. Finish what you need to say quickly, so that my young lady can quickly join the princess. If you delay the trip, , can you afford it?"
After Xiao Huangmen glared at Bai Ling displeasedly, he finally resisted the urge to scold him.
The seemingly wooden maid seemed not to have heard Bai Ling's push. She only bowed to Bai Mingzhu strictly according to the rules, then turned around and said to Xiao Huangmen:
"My father-in-law, please listen carefully. My princess asked me to tell you only one sentence."
When Xiao Huangmen heard the words, he immediately nodded respectfully and acted as if he was listening attentively. He was very alert and fully prepared in his heart.
No matter how he develops, he is confident that he can perfectly satisfy Princess Danyang and at the same time, he will also restore the image of the young lady from the Duke's Mansion depending on the situation...
As soon as Xiao Huangmen thought about this, the maid already said loudly:
"I have been blessed by the Holy Spirit and can walk freely in the palace gate. However, the palace gate is such an important place, and the safety of Your Majesty and all the nobles depends on it. Danyang does not dare to be arbitrary and domineering. I just ask my father-in-law to handle everything impartially."
When everyone heard the first half of the sentence, they all thought that Danyang County wanted to do this for relatives. Unexpectedly, the second half of the sentence was completely different and had a completely different meaning!
Before everyone could recover, the maid had already said to Bai Mingzhu:
"My princess also has something to convey to you, 'Don't worry, the time is still here, I will wait for you at the inner palace gate.'"
After finishing speaking, he bowed to Xiao Huangmen and Bai Mingzhu, said goodbye and then turned around and returned the same way, leaving everyone messy in the wind.
…
Danyang had just sat on the shoulder carriage sent by the chamberlain at the inner palace gate, and the maid she sent to deliver the message also happened to return.
"Go back to the princess. Fortunately, I have lived up to my command."
Because this maid has been learning martial arts since she was a child, and since she has been with Princess Danyang, except for the recent period, she has never deliberately learned the rules and used them to restrain her.
Therefore, every move he makes carries the swagger and skill of a martial artist, or to be more precise, a martial artist.
If you didn't look at his clothes and body shape, his appearance when he returned to life made Danyang feel that the person in front of him who had been ordered to go on a mission and returned was a soldier.
Because of this different feeling, she nodded and praised the little maid, and couldn't help but look at her curiously.
At the same time, Zizhu, who had volunteered to go on an errand, was also looking at the girl, and couldn't help but said half curiously and half teasingly:
"What did you do, girl? Why are you so secretly so proud?"
