After a while, Mrs. Bai left with everyone in Wuhou Mansion feeling a little lost.
Originally she came here to ask Bai Yuxian for help, but now she felt even more uneasy.
Because Bai Yuxian's words were like a bolt from the blue to her. If things were really like what Bai Yuxian said, even the emperor would be angry.
Mrs. Bai couldn't imagine in her heart that if the emperor really had a bad feeling towards their Wuhou Mansion because of this incident, what fate would await their Wuhou Mansion in the future.
This is no longer a matter between Bai Wen and Bai Wu, but the life and death of the entire Wuhou Mansion may be determined by this.
At this moment, not only Mrs. Bai, but also the remaining Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Mi and other people in Wuhou Mansion were feeling uneasy.
"Husband, is this matter really that serious?"
After Mrs. Bai and others left, the girls Han Shiyin couldn't help but look at Bai Yuxian and asked.
"It will only get worse."
Bai Yuxian shook his head. He didn't even know what was in the minds of Mrs. Bai and others.
In his opinion, Wuhou Mansion's handling of the matter was simply stupid.
Over the years, Wuhou Mansion's position in the capital was already shaky, but this time Bai Wen and Bai Wu actually did such a thing.
He actually dared to molest and rob a girl in public in the street, and when someone stopped him, he got so angry that he beat the person who stopped him to death.
You must know that this is in the imperial city, at the feet of the emperor. If something like this happens, where does it place the laws of the Tang Dynasty and where does it place the emperor? It is simply the same as slapping the emperor in the face.
The key is that the emperor is still aware of the matter and has ordered a joint trial of the three divisions to examine the case rigorously.
This also shows that the emperor was obviously angry about this matter.
To be honest, at this time, for the entire Wuhou Mansion, the Weihou Mansion was already secondary. The top priority was how to restore the impression in front of the emperor and in the heart.
If he were in charge of the Wuhou Mansion at this time, his first action would definitely be to go to the palace immediately to see the emperor and plead guilty, and try his best to restore the emperor's impression, even if he took the initiative to resign for this purpose.
As for Bai Wen and Bai Wu, they can do whatever the emperor wants.
As a result, what the Wuhou Mansion did at this time was not to go to the emperor to plead guilty to restore the impression in the emperor's heart, but to try every means to save the two brothers Bai Wen and Bai Wu.
What a stupid move.
It’s no wonder that Wuhou Mansion has reached this stage.
"In full view of the public, in the imperial city, and at the feet of the emperor, Bai Wen and Bai Wu actually dared to do such a thing. This is not only lawless and contemptuous of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but also a slap in the face of the emperor. Now that the emperor has ordered the three divisions to review the case, it has been shown The emperor's attitude, under such circumstances, the Wuhou Mansion actually thought about how to save Bai Wen and Bai Wu instead of asking the emperor to plead guilty and restore the impression in the emperor's mind."
"It's just stupid."
At the end, Bai Yuxian was too lazy to say anything.
After hearing what Bai Yuxian said, all the girls immediately understood completely.
Indeed, if the impression of Wuhou Mansion in the emperor's mind was bad, it would still be good in the future.
At this time, Wuhou Mansion did not think about how to restore the emperor's impression, but only thought about how to save Bai Wen and Bai Wu. It was not stupid.
Fortunately, they had already moved out of Wuhou Mansion, and now Tiance Mansion has long been separated from Wuhou Mansion.
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel a little happy in their hearts.
It would be terrifying to think about it if they were still in Wuhou Mansion at this time and Bai Yuxian had not established a separate Tiance Mansion to become independent.
"Then my husband will help me with this matter. Will the emperor be there?"
Then the girls were worried again, worried that Bai Yuxian would be implicated in this matter and make the emperor unhappy.
"It doesn't matter. Even if I plead for mercy in this matter, even if the emperor refuses, he won't be angry with me. Besides, I have my own thoughts."
"You are at home with your mother and mother-in-law. I will discuss this matter with my father-in-law first."
——
"Brother-in-law."
"Is father-in-law at home?"
"Here you are, brother-in-law, I will take you there."
Not long after, Bai Yuxian came to the Han Mansion and met his father-in-law Han Su under the leadership of Han Yu.
"Here comes the Jade Immortal. Sit down first and ask someone to make a pot of tea." Upon seeing the arrival of the White Jade Immortal, Han Su immediately showed a smile on his face. He asked Bai Yuxian to sit down and then ordered Han Yu.
"Yes, father."
Han Yu withdrew in response, and Bai Yuxian immediately sat down and talked with his father-in-law and son-in-law Weng.
"I came here today because of the matter of Bai Wen and Bai Wu in Wuhou Mansion." Han Su said.
"My father-in-law knows things well. Just now, the old lady came to the house and asked for help. After all, we are members of the Bai family, so it's hard to refuse."
"Yeah, it's hard to refuse."
Han Su sighed helplessly after hearing this.
"It seems that the old lady has also come to see my father-in-law." Bai Yuxian couldn't help but smile when he saw this. Looking at his father-in-law's sigh, he knew that the Wuhou Mansion must have also come to see his father-in-law.
After all, Han Su is now considered to be a high-ranking official, and the key is still the young minister of Dali Temple. This time, Han Su will be the chief judge at Dali Temple.
And Han Su is the uncle of Wuhou Mansion and the son-in-law of Mrs. Bai. Moreover, when Han Su was demoted to Lingnan, Han Shiyin stayed in Wuhou Mansion and inherited the love of Wuhou Mansion.
In this case, Mrs. Bai came to ask for help, and Han Su certainly couldn't refuse.
Han Su was helpless about this, and at the same time he wanted to curse. What the hell are these Bai Wen and Bai Wu.
"What is Yuxian's plan for this matter?" Han Su looked at Bai Yuxian.
"After all, we have kinship, so it's better not to help, but helping to save lives can be regarded as the most benevolent thing. Regarding this matter, Yuxian plans to go to the palace to see His Majesty later to plead for mercy, save the lives of the two of them, and then sentence them to exile. That's it. On the one hand, it has established the friendship between my father-in-law and I for the Wuhou Mansion, and on the other hand, it has not been regarded as bending the law for personal gain, and it has maintained the strictness of the laws of the Tang Dynasty. I believe that His Majesty will not be too harsh on him."
When Han Su heard this, he immediately felt that Bai Yuxian's approach was good and nodded immediately.
"That's fine, but His Majesty will have to trouble Yuxian."
In this way, the two men settled the matter.
Half an hour later, Bai Yuxian entered the palace to pay an audience and came to Li Longji.
"I, Bai Yuxian, pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"The Jade Immortal is here, no need to be polite, but what do you want to see me for?"
Seeing Bai Yuxian, Li Longji suddenly asked with a smile on his face.
"Jade Immortal came here today because he really has something to ask for your Majesty's mercy."
"Oh, I don't know what it is. Could it be something related to Wuhou Mansion?"
The smile on Li Longji's face suddenly faded when he heard this, he looked at Bai Yuxian and asked, and at the same time he instantly guessed Bai Yuxian's intention.
"Exactly, I also know that the impact of this matter is bad. Bai Wen and Bai Wu have committed such heinous crimes that they will never be able to atone for their crimes. But before, Mrs. Bai came to Yuxian to ask for help. After all, Yuxian is also a member of the Bai family, and there is no kinship. Regardless, besides, when Yuxian lived in Wuhou Mansion, he had been taken care of a lot before, so Yuxian had to repay this kindness, so this time Yuxian came shamelessly to beg your majesty to be extra kind."
Bai Yuxian bowed again.
After hearing Bai Yuxian's words, Li Longji's face, which had suppressed his smile, suddenly softened.
Although he was unhappy that Bai Yuxian came to plead for mercy, Bai Yuxian's sincere words of kindness made him very happy.
After all, Bai Yuxian's performance undoubtedly proves that Bai Yuxian is also a person who cares about kindness, and is not a ruthless person.
So now that he values promoting Bai Yuxian so much, Bai Yuxian must be even more loyal to him.
One sentence.
This time, Li Longji was indeed a little angry about Bai Wen and Bai Wu. After all, being so lawless in the imperial city was simply a slap in the face of the emperor.
Therefore, Li Longji felt a little unhappy when Bai Yuxian came to plead for mercy.
But at this moment, he liked Bai Yuxian's sincere words even more.
What Li Longji wants is this kind of loyal minister who knows how to repay his kindness.
As for the matter of Bai Wen and Bai Wu, it is undoubtedly just a trivial matter to him, how can it be compared with Bai Yuxian, his confidant and favorite general.
Li Longji couldn't help but smile again on his face and said loudly.
"If someone else comes to me to plead for mercy on this matter, I will definitely kick them out as soon as possible. But since it is Yuxian who is begging for mercy, I will agree to this matter. Tell me how you want me to show mercy."
