Chapter 741: Madness

"A small white candle dares to fill your pockets like this, but what about the other things used in the sacrifice?"

"Candlesticks, incense paper, piles and piles, all of them are loopholes! Even if officialdom has always been clear and there are no fish, but this is too hateful!"

Xiao Shaotang gradually became murderous:

"I didn't want to touch him before, because I didn't want people to say that I would eliminate dissidents as soon as I took the throne, but now he has sent the handle to me himself, and if he doesn't move him, I am really sorry for the ancestors and the ancestors, and I am sorry for the subjects of the world!"

"This is not the removal of dissidents, this is the removal of moths from the pillars of the country. ”

Bai Chenghuan stretched out his hand and straightened the imperial crown on Xiao Shaotang's head:

"Only then can you be regarded as a good emperor. ”

Xiao Shaotang's angry murderous aura quickly dissipated, he looked at Bai Chenghuan with soft eyebrows, and couldn't help sighing:

"But Cheng Huan, is it particularly difficult to be a good emperor? This account is just an introduction, how much spark will be exploded, in fact, I don't know the bottom in my heart. ”

"But if I turn a blind eye, I will not be able to sleep and eat, you know, in the northwest, five taels of silver, enough for ordinary people to spend for several months, but in this imperial city, it can only burn quietly for a moment. ”

The concerns under his anger, Bai Chenghuan clearly realized at this moment.

She naturally knew that it was impossible for everyone in Daqi to be so innocent, and if the account presented by Gonggong Hai was true, the amount of sacrifice alone would be too terrifying.

In the past, Xiao Shaoyun was only an emperor who was longer than the deep palace, he would not know what was wrong with these expenses, and he did not know that his subordinates were so dark and dirty that they even dared to use sacrifices to make money, so that now Xiao Shaotang was already angry just by seeing the accounts.

And once this matter is investigated, it is inevitable that Daqi's officialdom will be injured, after all, Fang Handong can do such a big job in sacrificing silver, and the household department will not be able to get rid of it.

But so what?

She walked away from Xiao Shaotang's side, took a few steps back, tidied up her clothes, and saluted Xiao Shaotang respectfully:

"Your Majesty, this matter, the concubines implore the emperor to investigate thoroughly. ”

"Daqi is like a patient, although he has not been terminally ill, but he has already fallen ill, and only by treating it early can he be cured unharmed. ”

Xiao Shaotang looked at his solemn queen, and his eyes gradually glowed with a strange brilliance-

She saluted him, not on behalf of her Bai Chenghuan, but on behalf of the queen of a country in the world!

She was telling him that no matter what others thought, she always stood by his side without hesitation.

Even if the emperor's road is difficult, with her standing by his side unswervingly, what is he afraid of?

Xiao Shaotang suppressed the ups and downs of his heart, and also replied deeply:

"The queen rest assured, I will definitely live up to the queen's expectations!"

With the experience of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, whether it is the old noble female relatives or the new noble female dependents, they have found their performance at the palace banquet very accurately.

Therefore, compared with the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the banquet on New Year's Day is much calmer and more harmonious, at least on the surface, at a glance, it is no longer possible to distinguish the camp of the noble daughters and the nobles.

But the seat originally arranged for Duchess Weiguo was still empty, which made Bai Chenghuan very uneasy.

She looked over to the courtier's seat, and her father and brother's seat were also empty.

Bai Chenghuan couldn't care about the queen's prestige, and grabbed Xiao Shaotang's sleeve tightly:

"Why didn't my father and mother come, and did the people who went to visit last night have anything in return?"

Xiao Shaotang remembered the plea handed over by the Weiguo Mansion early in the morning, his eyes darkened, and he lowered his head to comfort Bai Chenghuan, who looked flustered:

"I came back with news, but it wasn't late at night, and it wasn't a big deal, so I didn't alarm you. Today, the people of the Weiguo Mansion can't enter the palace, and they also handed me an excerpt in advance, saying that the Duchess of Weiguo suffered from the cold last night and was a little sick, so I ordered the Duchess of Weiguo not to enter the palace, and to rest at home, you don't have to worry too much. ”

"If it's a little sick, then why didn't my father and brother come? What happened last night?"

Bai Chenghuan, the mother's character, knows it, and if it is not a last resort, she will never let the Weiguo Mansion be arrogant by the nobles of the capital.

Xiao Shaotang tried his best to reassure:

"I'm afraid that you won't be at ease, so I simply ordered them not to come, and take care of Duchess Weiguo at home, otherwise even if Duchess Weiguo doesn't enter the palace, don't you still have to worry about them entering the palace?"

This reason can be regarded as a little convincing to Bai Chenghuan.

Indeed, if the father and brother enter the palace, even if the mother is sick, she will still struggle to get up and take care of them, Xiao Shaotang's decision is also intimate.

"Then what happened last night?" Bai Chenghuan looked at Xiao Shaotang with black and white eyes, and continued to ask.

Xiao Shaotang couldn't help but hold his forehead, thought about it and replied:

"It is said that an aunt in the house was looking for death and life, and the slaves and maids in the house couldn't be the master, so they invited the Duchess of Weiguo to go back. Duchess Weiguo also explained, so I am not allowed to tell you. ”

Bai Chenghuan understood this, this aunt who was looking for death and life was afraid that it would be Aunt Zhu.

Aunt Zhu rushed out that day and was locked up again by her mother, and her mother attached so much importance to an aunt, it is estimated that she knew that she was not biological, and she was afraid that Aunt Zhu would shout out and be known.

Thinking about it like this, Bai Chenghuan's heart settled down a little, and he was finally able to sit down peacefully, and he presided over the New Year's Day banquet with impeccable demeanor.

After the banquet was over, Bai Chenghuan wanted to go out of the palace to see the Duchess of Weiguo.

Xiao Shaotang had to stop again and again:

"You are pregnant now, Duchess Weiguo won't let me tell you, just because I'm afraid that you have to go to see her, now that the weather is so cold, if you suffer from the cold again, how can you make Duchess Weiguo feel comfortable?"

"But my mother is sick......

Bai Chenghuan was anxious, and was about to argue with Xiao Shaotang, when Shao Hui came to report that Mrs. Qiuguo was here and asked to see her outside.

"Please!"

Bai Chenghuan had to put down this matter first and go to entertain the Li family.

In fact, after participating in the palace banquet, the Li family planned to let Bai Chenghuan rest for a while and then ask to see her, but Xiao Shaotang asked people to invite her.

At this time, I heard that Bai Chenghuan wanted to go out of the palace, and the Li family disagreed:

"Mrs. Xu doesn't let you know, and she also treats you with a piece of heart, if you have to go, you will succumb to her kindness. It's better to stay in the palace with peace of mind to recuperate, and I'll take a look at Mrs. Xu's side, how about it?"

When Li said this, Bai Chenghuan was shocked to realize that his attitude was a little inappropriate.

Maybe it's because the two mothers get along well, so she is negligent, and Li is her mother-in-law.

And she is only worried about the mother of the Weiguo Mansion, and the Li family sees it in her eyes and thinks in her heart, so she doesn't know.

But at this time, Li knew that something was wrong, and he didn't think much about it, seeing Bai Chenghuan hesitating, thinking that she was moved by what she said, he hit the railway while it was hot:

"Then it's decided, I'll visit Mrs. Xu on your behalf, whether it's good or bad, I'll tell you when I come back. As for you, you can raise the baby in the palace with peace of mind, don't think nonsense, and don't run around, so as not to make people worry, do you hear?"

Bai Chenghuan felt a little guilty about the Li family in his heart, and after thinking about it, he agreed:

"I listen to my mother. ”

"That's right! You are now a queen, you are not as unrestrained as before, and the child in your womb is also a dragon heir, you must not be careless, do not be impulsive in everything, and act arbitrarily. ”

Taking advantage of the fact that her daughter seemed to be able to listen to it at this moment, the Li family educated Bai Chenghuan very much.

By the time the Li family left the palace, Bai Chenghuan's mood had almost calmed down.

In fact, it is just that if you care, you will be chaotic.

She had the secret of her life experience in her heart, and when there was a slight disturbance in the Weiguo Mansion, she began to be nervous, and as a result, she lost her calmness and embarrassed the people around her.

It seems that in the future, she should learn more and keep quiet.

Li agreed to Bai Chenghuan, and remembered the like-minded relationship with the Duchess of Weiguo in the past, and went straight to the Weiguo Mansion when he left the palace gate.

In the past, when the Li family came to the door, they were all welcomed into the mansion as guests, but today is very different.

The steward who followed Li out handed the post in for a long time, and then an old woman came out to reply slowly.

"Madame is fine, but it is inconvenient to see people recently, Mrs. Qiuguo, please go back." ”

Li Shi looked at the old woman, who was a faceless person, thought about it for a while, and ordered someone to give the old lady a reward, and then said:

"I'd better ask Mama to run again, I'm here to visit Mrs. Xu for the queen's mother, if you can't see anyone, you can't go back this time. ”

The grandmother held the thick reward in her hand, turned around and went in again.

Li waited patiently in the carriage for a while, only to see the side door of the Weiguo Mansion open, and Mama Gao walked out expressionlessly.

Mama Gao's smile in the past disappeared, and when she saw Li, she made a rigid salute and said:

"Madame is fine, Mrs. Qiuguo, please go back!"

After speaking, he didn't care what Lee's reaction was, he turned around and left.

Li was thrown at the door of the Weiguo Mansion, dumbfounded, and when people stepped forward to ask, no one even paid attention to her anymore.

What happened to this Weiguo Mansion?

Li Shi was puzzled, but he didn't think about going back to tell Bai Chenghuan, but ordered someone to drive away.

She thought about it alone, but she couldn't think of the reason, so in the end, she ordered someone to report the matter to Xiao Shaotang, and at the same time went to appease Bai Chenghuan in person.

“…… Mrs. Xu is sick, but the illness is not serious, it is caused by the wind and cold caused by the season, but she can't see people very well. ”

She also told you not to go out of the palace to see her without permission, for fear that you would be sick and angry, you have to listen to her. ”

Although Li was lying, what he said was very realistic, after Bai Chenghuan heard it, he relaxed a little, and with the guilt of Li in his heart, he put this matter aside for the time being.

Xiao Shaotang quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and once again ordered someone to go to the Weiguo Mansion to investigate.

In the evening, after Bai Chenghuan fell asleep, Xiao Shaotang asked the messenger to come over to see him.

"What the hell is going on?"

"The humble post inquired that on Chinese New Year's Eve, after the Duchess of Weiguo returned home, she smashed the ancestral hall of the Xu family in just one hour. ”

"Smash the ancestral hall of the Xu family?"

Xiao Shaotang was incredulous.

In the ancestral hall of the Xu family, it was a mess, and Xu Shuning's tablet was smashed to pieces.

Wei Guogong tried to let people come in and clean several times, but Duchess Wei Guo guarded the door like crazy, no one could enter, no one could come out.

"Mother, son, please, go back and rest first!"

Xu Chenglin, who had been following his father here, knelt on the ground and begged bitterly.

In exchange, it was just a cold glance of the Duchess of Weiguo, and the kind look in the past, at this time, it was like being covered with a layer of 10,000-year-old ice, and a slight look froze Xu Chenglin from beginning to end.

Xu Chenglin knelt on the ground, bowed his head in pain, and was full of remorse in his heart-

He really shouldn't have been merciful and kept those people until now!

Seeing this, Wei Guogong was finally defeated by his wife's stubborn eyes, and turned around and walked out:

"Since Madame is angry in her heart, then I'm going to find justice for Madame, and I'm going to ask that slut what she wants!

Duke Weiguo's murderous appearance fell under the eyes of Duchess Weiguo, and she felt that it was so ridiculous, and suddenly sneered:

"Xu Qinhou! At this point today, you are still acting in a cozy manner! The things you have done with your good sister, the things that everyone in your Weibei Hou Mansion has done to me - I curse you that you will not die well, and you will enter the eighteenth layer of hell after death, and you will not be able to live forever!"

As she spoke, Duchess Weiguo turned around again, picked out an old tablet from the remaining row of tablets, slammed it on the ground, and then stepped on it again and again, with endless hatred, like madness.

Duke Wei Guo Huo Ran turned around and struggled to snatch out the broken tablet from the feet of Duchess Weiguo, and the remaining handwriting on it was faintly visible, it was the original Mrs. Weibei Houfu, the tablet of Duke Weiguo Xu Qinhou's biological mother!

From the moment Duchess Wei Guo began to get angry, Wei Guogong, who had been following his son's advice and suppressing his emotions, finally felt that he couldn't bear it anymore!

He held the tablet in his hand and yelled at the Duchess of Weiguo:

"Shi Yuzhen, this is my mother's tablet, but you stepped on it like this, what kind of hatred do you have?"

"The hatred of killing the son, the hatred of killing the son, is it enough?!

Duchess Weiguo had confronted him in the ancestral hall for so long, and her eyes had turned red.

Such a hateful answer made Wei Guogong's heart tremble a little, but he felt that he couldn't understand what this meant:

"The hatred of killing the son, the hatred of killing the son? Shi Yuzhen, are you crazy? Your son is standing here in a dignified manner, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

"My son...... You don't deserve to be a father at all, because you don't even know you have a son...... You don't deserve it!"

Duchess Weiguo scolded viciously, but then described as sitting on the ground withered, tears like beads with broken threads, fragile and desperate:

"I'm not worthy of it......"
