Chapter 923: King Duan's Aftermath
"Xuerui's child has been smart since he was a child, and everyone knows it in the aristocratic circle in Beijing, and he is not only smart, but also has a pure character, but no one knows why, after he gets married, except for going to work, he goes out to play by himself the rest of the time, which seems to be not doing his job. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" the old lady said and sighed, "but I have lived a long time, and I have seen many people, and these old eyes will not be mistaken, and he will not do that kind of thing, unless he is recognized as framed." ”
"Don't look at the old man Jiang's strict management of the family, where can there be no loopholes?" the old lady said again.
Bai Ruozhu smiled gratefully at the old lady and said, "I also think that my father-in-law is not that kind of person, Ah Chun said that his father-in-law treated him very well when he was a child and often took him around to play, how could such a father do such a thing? If his father-in-law is a womanizer, how can he not take a concubine for many years?"
The old lady nodded with satisfaction, "It's good that you can think like this, the things of the previous generation have been forgotten in the past, but I don't want you to have any knots because of this, and now it seems that I am too worried." ”
The two chatted for a while, and Bai Ruozhu said goodbye and returned to the Bai family, and as soon as he returned home, he was criticized by the whole family.
"Little sister, you are very bold now, and you don't discuss anything with us. Bai Zehao complained dissatisfiedly.
Bai Zepei also glared at her, with the same unhappy expression.
"Yes, Ruozhu, why don't you tell your family about such a big matter?" Lin Ping'er also frowned and asked.
Bai Ruozhu explained directly: "The incident happened too suddenly, and I don't know when Duanwang will act, so I can only solve this matter as quickly as possible." It's not that I don't want to tell you, this matter can't leak the slightest rumor, these people in our family are not completely trustworthy, maybe when I explain it to you, Duanwang has already reported me. ”
In fact, there is another point she didn't say, the matter came from the toothpaste workshop, her family didn't know about it at all, there was really an accident, she could also find a way to take the family out, but if the second brother and others went to the court with her today, they would not be able to pick it up at all.
After listening to Bai Ruozhu's explanation, everyone couldn't say anything, after all, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is a big crime, and there is no room for mistakes.
Lin Ping'er bowed with her hands folded and said, "Thanks to the blessing of the Bodhisattva, I will go to offer incense to the Bodhisattva." With that, she ran away.
In the afternoon, not long after Bai Ruozhu got up from a nap with his son, someone asked to see him, and it turned out to be the fox brother he hadn't seen for many days!
Bai Ruozhu became excited, looked at Senior Brother Fox and asked, "Did Ah Chun ask you to give me a letter?"
Xu Huilin touched his nose in embarrassment, coughed lightly twice, and said, "I have been transferred from the General Administration Department, and I don't know their specific actions. ”
Bai Ruozhu was instantly disappointed, she thought that Xu Huilin was from the General Administration, Jiang Yichun and the General Administration Department were cooperating on an errand, and Xu Huilin was here to report the news.
"Then what are you doing here?" Because of disappointment, Bai Ruozhu's tone was a little colder.
Xu Huilin shook his head helplessly and said, "It was Meng Liangsheng who asked me to come over to see you and help you escort that batch of toothpaste into Beijing in the past few days." ”
"You have already returned to the Meng family?" Bai Ruozhu quickly adjusted his mood, a little surprised in his heart, but more happy for Xu Huilin.
When asked this question, Xu Huilin avoided Bai Ruozhu's gaze a little uncomfortably, and whispered: "It happened a while ago, but I'm just his staff, and I don't want to recognize my relatives." ”
No wonder he just called Meng Liangsheng by his name, I'm afraid that Meng Liangsheng is also very helpless to treat this indebted son.
Suddenly, Bai Ruozhu's eyes blinked, one of the sons of the Meng family returned to Beijing to worry, and the other took the errand to escort her toothpaste into Beijing, does this mean something?
"He cares about your well-being. Bai Ruozhu muttered in a low voice.
Xu Huilin is a person who practices martial arts, how could he not hear her words, his face changed slightly, but he did not answer her words.
In fact, he had already approved Bai Ruozhu's statement, but he still couldn't accept Meng Liangsheng emotionally.
"If he had recognized you earlier, you probably wouldn't be alive now. Bai Ruozhu reminded in a low voice.
Xu Hui's body was shocked, he has understood a lot recently, but he still can't accept it.
Bai Ruozhu sighed silently, Meng Liangsheng's unjust debt back then was also helpless, maybe time is the best elixir.
Subsequently, the two went to the flower hall to discuss the departure time, how many goods there would be, and how many carriages would be transported.
This batch of toothpaste must be sent to the palace, and there can be no more errands.
In the next three days, Bai Ruozhu went to the toothpaste workshop every day to stare, on the one hand, the previous things needed to be rectified in the ointment workshop and stand up, and on the other hand, he also stared at the production of the workers, not wanting to affect the quality of the toothpaste because of the rush. This batch of goods was delivered to the palace, and it must not be tampered with by anyone.
Not only did Bai Ruozhu go to supervise the work during the day, but he also secretly sent a secret guard to keep an eye on all the movements in the workshop, and sure enough, on the third day, he couldn't wait to act.
In the middle of the night, a worker sneaks into the workshop, opens the vat of toothpaste that has been made, and pours something into it.
The secret guard Yan Ming quickly stopped him and clicked on his acupuncture points.
The matter was reported to Bai Ruozhu overnight, and Bai Ruozhu instructed Mama Zhang to take good care of the pedaling, quietly went out of the house, and went to the workshop late at night to check.
The powder was not sprinkled into the large vat of toothpaste, and the powder was not highly toxic, but it would conflict with a certain herb in the toothpaste, and then make the gums bleed, and if used for a long time, the gums would recede and the gap between the teeth would increase.
When such toothpaste is sent to the palace, her head doesn't want to stay on her neck, because no one can guarantee who will use the toothpaste, and it may be given to the palace maids and eunuchs with humble status, but it may also be in the hands of the princes and concubines, and she doesn't dare to think about the consequences.
Fortunately, she made preparations, and the hard work of the past few days has not been in vain.
She walked towards the poisoned worker step by step, and asked, "I don't treat you well, right? Although I can't give you glory and wealth, and I can give you a rich life, what is the point of you taking risks like this?"
Jian Qi relieved the man's dumb hole, and the worker pleaded: "Master, please let me go, I don't want to, but King Duan sent someone to arrest my wife and children, if I don't do this, they will die." ”
Bai Ruozhu snorted coldly, "Your wife and children were arrested, why don't you tell me, is it that my master can't be trusted like this? Can't I help you save people? Have you ever thought that you would kill more than one or two people by secretly poisoning, all the people in this workshop will be killed, and my whole family will be implicated by you, how can you tell me to sympathize with you?"
