The Bai family has always been something the emperor attaches great importance to and is extremely fearful of.
Therefore, the emperor was extremely cautious when handling all matters related to the Bai family. When Yun Ji made such a fuss, the emperor suddenly remembered that the imperial edict he was about to issue just now was not related to the Bai family, Is it related to Bai Yanqing?
After all, what is the magic power of the Bai family? What is the charm of this legitimate daughter of the Bai family? Not only was she able to enchant the third prince, even making a scene in the imperial study, but she also dared to make the concubines in the emperor's harem so angry... This, the legitimate daughter of the Bai family who had not even met the emperor, seemed to be in a cage. It was like a mysterious veil, which aroused the curiosity of the emperor!
"Father, please promise me! I don't have any great ambitions in this life. I just want to get the one I love and grow old hand in hand. Just like this, my father won't agree to it either?"
Yun Ji saw that the emperor's brows were furrowed and he looked reluctant, so he acted coquettishly again.
Seeing him like this, the emperor couldn't say anything clearly anymore, so he had to be vague and said for the time being: "At this time, we have to think about it in the long term, and we need Prime Minister Bai's consent, and Prime Minister Bai's daughter is willing!"
Hearing this, Yun Ji smiled again and took the emperor's hand, as if he was intimate. Anyway, no matter whether the emperor agrees or not, the emperor can't stop him from what he wants to do!
"By the way, where on earth did you marry the white-faced girl? If you give it to me privately...I'm afraid, this girl's reputation won't be very good either!"
After Lai Feiyan's trouble, the emperor's impression of Bai Yanqing was not very good after all. Now that he heard Yun Ji say that he knew Bai Yanqing, the emperor subconsciously decided that this woman was not a good person!
"No, no, no! Father, Bai Yanqing is so good that I feel that I am not worthy of her! It is I who admire her!"
Yun Ji waved his hands repeatedly and shook his head like a rattle, as if he was afraid that the emperor would be prejudiced against Bai Yanqing!
"I have to get a glimpse of the daughter of the Bai family. This starts with the incident when Grandma Sun comes out of the palace to teach..."
Therefore, Yun Ji mentioned the incident when Grandma Sun and Bai Yanqing met him by chance while shopping. He described Bai Yanqing as someone who had lived a peaceful life, had no worries about the world, and was knowledgeable about books and rituals, and then told the emperor in detail.
The Bai Yanqing in Yun Ji's mouth and the Bai Yanqing in Lai Feiyan's mouth are completely two different people!
The Bai Yanqing described by Lai Feiyan is arrogant, domineering, arrogant and arrogant in her dealings with others! But the Bai Yanqing that Yun Ji said was gentle, courteous, modest, elegant and upright, and she looked like a lady!
This...who is the real Bai family's legitimate daughter? Even the emperor was a little confused!
When he thought of the unfinished imperial edict on the imperial desk, the emperor got a headache again! Should he punish this Bai family girl?
…
The next day, Bai Jingxuan, following the emperor's hint, hurriedly went to the imperial study room with the eunuch beside the emperor to wait for his arrival.
When the emperor threw the half-written imperial edict in front of Bai Jingxuan, Bai Jingxuan didn't move his eyebrows. He knelt down with a "pop" and said that he had "failed to teach his daughter" and offended Empress Li!
"In Bai Aiqing's opinion, how should I punish your daughter?"
The emperor was an emperor after all, so he directly threw the problem to Bai Jingxuan. First, I wanted to see if he would engage in malpractice for personal gain and cover up his daughter. Secondly, I also wanted to test Bai Jingxuan to see if he had any disrespect for the royal family.
"I am busy with official duties and have not yet had time to understand the cause of the matter. When I return home now, I will immediately find my daughter and ask her for details! If she is really disrespectful to Concubine Li, I will immediately take my daughter to the palace to receive the punishment!"
After all, Bai Jingxuan has been in the officialdom for many years, how could he be fooled by the emperor's few words? Besides, what happened yesterday had already been reported to Bai Jingxuan by his servants when he returned home. How could he not know that it was Lai Feiyan who was deliberately looking for trouble?
Bai Jingxuan was naturally reluctant to punish Bai Yanqing. Of course he felt that his daughter had done nothing wrong, but now, the emperor wanted him to express his position, what could he do? Of course, it can be delayed for a while. If it comes to the point where it is inevitable and Bai Yanqing needs to sacrifice, then he will definitely not mind causing a fight to the death!
Hey, Lai Feiyan, does she even want to touch the daughter of the Bai family? She is dreaming!
"Bai Aiqing, Bai Aiqing! I don't know about your little tricks? I won't pursue this matter anymore. You go back and punish her yourself, just...be banned for ten days. What do you think? A small punishment but a big punishment." A warning is fine, but in the end, I still have to give Libi an explanation, right?"
The emperor could probably see some of Bai Jingxuan's little thoughts, not to mention that after Yun Ji's trouble yesterday, the emperor himself was not so annoyed. If he really punished the person his son liked, Yun Ji might find out about it in the future. Why are you making such a fuss in the palace?
Hey, one thing more is worse than one thing less. Son is important, son is important!
The emperor was really helpless. Who let him deal with such an obscure son?
"Your Majesty...the Third Prince is...here again!"
Just as the emperor and Bai Jingxuan were talking, the palace servant reported that Yun Ji was here again!
The emperor had no choice but to let outsiders in because he was afraid that he would not be able to see him. If he started making trouble again, he had no choice but to let him in!
"Father! My son...hey, isn't this Prime Minister Bai?"
Yun Ji was just about to speak to the emperor when he saw Bai Jingxuan kneeling on the ground. He quickly stepped forward enthusiastically and helped Bai Jingxuan up. Without waiting for the emperor to say anything, he took care of himself and warmed up to Bai Jingxuan. !
"Xiang Bai, how is your daughter these days? Is she feeling better? I heard that Miss Bai has been frail since she was a child. Xiang Bai should treat her better, and don't let her suffer any more injustice and get hurt! Oh, by the way, What does Prime Minister Bai have to discuss with my father today? Is it a major government matter? If so, wouldn't it be inconvenient for me to listen to it?"
Yunji didn't care that the emperor was trying his best to express his feelings to him, but he was still in a warm relationship with Bai Jingxuan. Zhenzhen'er has a way of trying to please his future father-in-law.
The emperor just couldn't see it! Whoever wants this son can take him away! Anyway, he felt very embarrassed!
"It's no big inconvenience. It's nothing important. It's just that... my little girl accidentally bumped into Concubine Li earlier, so... therefore, I will go back and punish her!"
Bai Jingxuan subconsciously took two steps back. First, he was really not used to Yun Ji's familiar appearance. Secondly, the emperor has always been suspicious, and Bai Jingxuan is also worried. If the emperor thinks that he and the third prince are forming a clique for personal gain, it will be difficult to talk about it, and it will cause trouble all over again.
"What? Attacking Concubine Li? That woman was staying in the palace well, so how could she be attacked by Miss Bai? Did that woman slander Miss Bai?"
When Yun Ji heard this, he jumped up immediately!
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Why did Lai Feiyan leave the palace when she was such a good person?
"This... I don't know. I don't know the details!"
Bai Jingxuan's head was sweating. Are the father and son singing a double act?
"What? Bai Xiang doesn't know either? Since Bai Xiang doesn't know, why should Yan Qing be punished?! Whoever dares to punish her should I reason with!"
Yun Ji looked indignant and pulled Bai Jingxuan out. At this moment, Yun Ji didn't even call her "Ms. Bai" and directly called her "Yan Qing". Anyone could hear the meaning behind this! Third Prince, you are determined to protect Miss Bai’s family!
"Okay, stop making trouble! I gave in to the punishment!"
The emperor held his forehead, his face full of helplessness. He knew very well that if his son was really allowed to go and make trouble with his beloved concubine Li, Yun Ji would not give up until the concubine was destroyed!
"Father! Why do you want to punish Yan Qing? She is a well-behaved lady who has not yet left the court. If you punish her, her reputation will be ruined from now on. How can she go out to meet people? You may not know. Those who are waiting to find out the faults of the White House, how will they arrange her behind the scenes! Father, please don’t punish her! If you don’t believe she will do something treacherous! If you don’t believe it, ask Grandma Sun, She must know who Yan Qing is!"
Seeing the emperor speak, Yun Ji hurriedly left Bai Jingxuan behind, ran to the emperor quickly, grabbed his arm, swung him around, and begged. He said he was begging, but Yun Ji just moved out Aunt Sun. Who in the palace knew that Aunt Sun was the late queen's personal nanny? Her prestige in the palace is such that even the emperor and the current queen are respectful!
If Nanny Sun is really called, then the old man and the young man will stage a scene of crying, making trouble and hanging themselves in the emperor's study room, which will make the emperor faint!
"Erchen knows! It must be the new concubine Li who entered the palace! She must be dissatisfied with the Bai family and used the excuse to punish Yan Qing to suppress Bai Xiang! It must be! No, Erchen went to find her and said Said! If she bullies Bai Xiang, how can she bully Yan Qing? How could Yan Qing, a good daughter of a well-known family... be bullied by that concubine Li of unknown origin? "
Look, look, what nonsense is Yun Ji talking about? What does it mean "If she bullies Bai Xiang, how can she bully Yan Qing?" His words completely put Bai Jingxuan aside!
The emperor couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this! But at the same time, the emperor's doubts were dispelled. It seemed that his son had nothing to do with Bai Jingxuan. His son just liked his daughter!
Not only that, Yun Ji's words also reminded the emperor that Bai Yanqing was a daughter of a famous family, and Lai Feiyan was just a common woman, so the two were naturally incomparable! No matter how much Lai Feiyan cries, as an emperor, he shouldn't be blinded and attack the Bai family daughter! This is not the emperor's usual way of doing things!
From the current point of view, the Bai family is what the emperor needs to win over! The emperor needs the Bai family to be loyal to him. If there are complications at this time, I am afraid that there will be a gap between himself and the Bai family!
Thinking of this, the emperor felt for the first time that what his misbehaving son said sometimes was quite useful!
Speaking of Lai Feiyan, Yun Ji didn't know the inside story, but the emperor actually sent someone to investigate her secretly. He knew that she had some issues with the Bai family and that she was Bai Jingxuan's biological sister and the daughter of Bai Furong.
However, the investigators came back and said that Lai Feiyan had broken off her relationship with the Bai family and her mother-daughter relationship with Bai Furong. What happened in the middle was unknown to outsiders. Therefore, when Lai Feiyan told the emperor earlier that she wanted to go back to the Bai family to visit her mother, the emperor acquiesced. After all, it is human nature to miss one's mother. Even if the relationship between mother and daughter is separated, there is still a blood relationship. However, the emperor did not expect that things would develop like this!
