Chapter 13: Birch's Prejudice
Finally completed all the atlases, and after Shen Qiqi repeatedly confirmed that there were no mistakes, he was greatly relieved.
asked people to send the scroll to Mo Yan, and went to the imperial study to play several games of cards with Xiao Jijing, and the sky was getting dark, so Shen Qiqi left to return to the Jade Ning Palace.
On the palace road, Yue Ling looked at Shen Qiqi, who was a little tired, and said with some distress: "Princess, you are tired today." β
"Not really. Shen Qiqi shook his head, "It's just that during this period of drawing the album, I found that the people in this palace seem to have a lot of respect for Mo Yan." β
After hearing that it was Mo Yan's order to draw the album, the ladies and masters of the various palaces not only actively cooperated, but she also found that many people secretly gave gifts to Mo Yan to curry favor, although it seemed that none of them succeeded.
"That's natural!" Yue Ling said as she was accustomed to it, "Whether it is in the palace or the imperial court, the status of His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is high. β
After speaking, Yue Ling hesitated again, "Princess, don't offend His Royal Highness the Regent next time, fortunately the Regent didn't care about it this time, otherwise it would ......"
"Alright. Shen Qiqi interrupted Yue Ling a little impatiently, "My ears are calloused when I hear what you say." β
Before Shen Qiqi finished speaking, he was walking to the corner, when an oncoming palace maid suddenly walked to Shen Qiqi's side, "Eldest princess, Lord Su asked you to go back to the house." β
After saying that, he immediately left quickly.
"Princess, this ......" Yue Ling followed behind Shen Qiqi, naturally she heard this, and just wanted to speak, but Shen Qiqi made a silent movement. Looking at the palace road in front, "Who, come out!"
Yue Ling was stunned for a moment, looked at the front defensively, and was stunned for a moment when she saw someone coming. "Grand Commander White?"
Bai Hua had a cold face and walked up to Shen Qiqi, "How do you know I'm there." β
"Heh, trouble the next time Commander Bai wants to pretend to be a ghost, hide the shadow first. "The figure in the corner is so obvious, how can she not see it.
Bai Hua frowned again, "Xiao Huanyan, this Grand Commander has something to ask you." β
"If Commander Bai wants to ask about the painting, there is no need. Princess Ben admits that I painted it. "Today in the Yanwu Hall, when Bai Hua's face suddenly changed when she saw her sketch, she guessed that he should have seen it, but she didn't expect that Bai Hua couldn't even bear it today, and actually stayed on this palace road.
Xiao Huanyan...... You're really brazen!" Bai Hua's heart instantly rolled with anger, since she painted it, why could she still be so arrogant now?
"Shameless?" Shen Qiqi frowned slightly, "Speaking of these four words, Grand Commander Bai seems to be more suitable than Princess Ben." As the fiancΓ© of this princess, even if he is entangled with my cousin, and he also deals with the princess directly, the face of the white commander is breathtaking. β
"You ......" Bai Hua only felt a mouthful of blood blocked in his throat, "Xiao Huanyan, this Grand Commander has told you a long time ago that I will never marry you, as for targeting you, if it weren't for you hurting Qin Xue and acting mischiefly as a princess, this Grand Commander would disdain to target you." β
Yue Ling, who was standing on the side, frowned when he heard this, "Great Commander Bai, you can't wronged the princess like this, when will the princess ......?"
"Okay, Yue Ling, it is inevitable in this world to listen to and believe partially, and explain what to do with this kind of person. Shen Qiqi sneered, "As for acting nonsense with the identity of the princess, I'm sorry, this princess has been very busy during this time, and she has done a lot of things, I don't know which one the Great Commander Bai is referring to?"
"The eldest princess has been very busy lately, I'm afraid, she's busy making a reputation. Bai Hua naturally knew about the recent praise of Shen Qiqi in the Chaozhong Palace, but he still didn't believe that the person in front of him was really dedicated to the disaster victims and those palace people.
Shen Qiqi didn't want to entangle with Bai Hua more, but because of Bai Hua's words, he frowned completely.
"Commander Bai, no matter what this princess is for, but hundreds of thousands of disaster relief silver are not fake, and those palace people who can get out of slavery and rejoice are not fake. It is said that the food of the king bears the worries of the king, as a courtier, in the face of the disaster relief dilemma, you can't do anything about it, but you speculate and slander the intentions of others, is this your mind and temperament as a minister?"
"I ......" Bai Hua was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Shen Qiqi.
"The victims of the disaster are hungry, and the palace people will not be able to get out of slavery for the rest of their lives even if they leave the palace, if they think of the method of both, they can put forward it as a hypocrisy and pretend to want to gain fame, and I am a princess in the deep palace who is still being talked about like this, so how can those officials above the officialdom avoid suspicion? If everyone in the court and China is so thoughtful, then how can they govern the country and the people?" Shen Qiqi paused, with three points of anger on his face, and the whole person was serious and majestic.
"This Grand Commander will never speculate on others at will, it's just that the eldest princess has always behaved, which really makes me have to doubt it. Bai Hua looked at Shen Qiqi, and although he opened his mouth to explain, he was a little surprised in his heart by Shen Qiqi's radiance at the moment.
Shen Qiqi raised his head slightly, meeting Bai Hua's gaze: "People's cognition is inevitably biased, Bai Hua, are you really sure that you have no prejudice and misunderstanding about this princess? And as a court official, if you can say slanderous words against your will today because of your own prejudice, can you take care of your family and country tomorrow for your personal interests?"
"I ......" Bai Hua's heart trembled, looking at Shen Qiqi's gaze, he was a little unable to speak for a while.
"Commander Bai think about it, this princess is all she says. Shen Qiqi dropped these words, retracted his gaze, and walked past Bai Hua.
And Bai Hua stood in place in a daze, he didn't know at this moment, many years later, every time he recalled this night, he was extremely annoyed by the stupid prejudice in his heart at this time......
On the other side, as soon as Shen Qiqi returned to the Yuning Palace, he walked to the desk, picked up the small book and began to hold grudges.
"Princess, what are you ......" Yue Ling looked at Shen Qiqi, a little strange.
"Hold a grudge!" Shen Qiqi said with a little anger.
Bai Hua's prejudiced reputation just now really made her angry. It wasn't until that moment just now that she really felt worthless for Xiao Huanyan.
"Princess, don't be angry, beware of getting angry. Yue Ling sighed and persuaded, "Moreover, you still have to think about the affairs of the Su family." β
Su Jia......
With the pen in her hand, Shen Qiqi raised her head, by the way, how could she forget about this matter in one go.
"Yue Ling, what's the matter with Master Su?"
