Chapter 191: The Lord of the Sealed County
The Queen Mother was shocked, she didn't expect that the emperor was still hesitant just now, and planned to calm things down, but she didn't expect Jiuqing to change his mind with a few words.
The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with Feng Jiuqing, glanced at him, and said, "Jiuqing, do you also think that you should do it according to Wushuang's words?"
Feng Jiuqing hesitated a little, and seemed to hesitate and said: "Queen Mother, the sons and daughters don't want to see Brother Wang and Sister-in-law Wang's family lose face, but it is precisely because they want to save their face that they have to be ruthless, you know...... If you really want to involve Brother Wang's family because of Brother Wang's Shengming, that's a big crime!"
The Queen Mother looked at Feng Jiuqing's eyes, felt that his worries did not seem to be fake, and thought about the matter before and after, if it was because of this trivial matter, the King of Chu County offended the Xie Lu family, and he had to take advantage of the reputation of bullying people, and provoke the emperor to be unhappy, it was indeed not a smart move.
After being silent for a while, he asked: "But if you want Zihan to kneel down to Miss Bai with a prince of Chu County, is this unreasonable? You must know that the rules of the ancestors cannot be changed!"
The queen mother can only keep one now, Ling'er kneel, just kneel, after all, it is a daughter's family, but Zihan still has to be a man, if she gives Bai Mujian a white body to kneel, how will she take charge of the Chu County Mansion in the future?
The emperor was also a little embarrassed, glanced at Mrs. Lu, and asked, "Wushuang, is this ...... Why don't you let Zi Ling kneel down and apologize alone?"
The Queen Mother saw that the emperor was relieved, and her face showed a hint of pride, fortunately she was witty, these Xie Wushuang couldn't do anything, right?
It's a pity that Mrs. Lu is not a vegetarian, she got up from the stool, and also pulled up the white hibiscus, bowed slightly to the emperor and the queen mother, and said: "Since the emperor and the queen mother are not sincere, the concubine can only leave, the first to insult Jin'er was Feng Shizi, all say that the prince broke the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people, if it is only because he is the prince, then let it go, the status of the king and princess of Chu County is more noble, how can they apologize to the prince and the daughter of the prince?"
The emperor saw that Mrs. Lu's face was already extremely unhappy, and he was embarrassed again, Mrs. Lu's words were not wrong, if Feng Zihan was not punished, then why should Feng Ziling be punished?
A hint of cunning flashed in Feng Jiuqing's eyes, and he immediately said: "The queen mother's words are reasonable, how can you let the dignified prince kneel down for Bai, this thing that insults the dignity of the royal family must not be done, and the sons and daughters also feel that it is inappropriate, it is quite inappropriate!"
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she glared at Feng Jiuqing angrily, but saw that he quietly pointed at the white hibiscus with his hand, and then pointed upward, and he couldn't pay attention to it for a while.
Bai Mujin seemed to understand something, his face was sad, and he said: "The courtiers know that their status is low, and they are not worthy of letting the dignified prince kneel down and apologize, who let the courtiers be neither a princess nor a county lord, but only a white body, so there is only a clear will to die!"
If Old Madam Lu didn't understand it now, she would be blind to Feng Jiuqing's good intentions, so she quietly took out a gold medal in her arms.
Immediately, the whole room knelt down, even the emperor and the queen mother were no exception, and Bai Mujin also knew that this gold medal was not trivial, so he knelt down at the first time.
Old Madam Lu smiled slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, this token was given by the emperor, and it doesn't have a big effect, but the concubine asks for a token today, and there is only one request!"
The emperor has rarely knelt down for so many years, except for every time he worships the heavens or ancestors, even when he sees the queen mother, he only bends down slightly, and when he kneels down suddenly, he is really uncomfortable, but he is not kneeling for his cousin, but the emperor.
Hurriedly said: "Seeing this token is like seeing the emperor, Wushuang has something to say, do you have to kneel Zihan?
Old Madam Lu shook her head, with a faint smile on her face, and said: "Your Majesty, the words of the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness King Xuan are good, you can't let the dignified prince kneel in a white body, and the concubine also remembers that when her mother refused the emperor to give her concubine the title of princess, the emperor's words, if he wants to regret it in the future, he will definitely be awarded the title of princess of the auxiliary kingdom again!"
When the emperor and the queen mother heard that this was the case, they breathed a sigh of relief, the old lady wanted the princess, and that was not a matter of words.
The emperor hurriedly said: "Wushuang, I will never break my word, why do you use the gold medal of the emperor if you have this idea!"
Old Madam Lu glanced at Bai Muhibiscus before saying: "The concubine is old, and she doesn't care about the position of the princess, and the emperor also knows that I only have one son and one daughter, and the most beloved is the daughter of the concubine, Wanqin." It's a pity ......"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but choke, and the emperor was also embarrassed when he heard it, and hurriedly persuaded: "Wushuang, I know that you are bitter in your heart, just say what you want!"
Mrs. Lu stopped her sadness, pulled Bai Mujian up, and helped the emperor and the queen mother with her own hands, before she said: "The concubine's daughter died early, Jin'er was only three years old at that time, the so-called family ugliness cannot be publicized, but the concubine only thinks that the emperor and the queen mother are their own family, there is nothing to say, the concubine is not a virtuous person, and she persecuted Jin'er and Chen'er several times." ”
Said and sad again, the queen mother was also a little unbearable, although she never cared about the situation of the Guogong Mansion, but every year she ordered the woman to see the court, and did not see the Lu family come with Bai Hibiscus, and heard that Bai Mu Hibiscus fell into a cowardly and ignorant outside, and the stupid reputation of the dull Mu Na was outside, so she could also know a thing or two.
Bai Mujin hurriedly calmed Old Madam Lu and signaled that she didn't need to mention this. Mrs. Lu continued: "Jin'er is a poor child, pretending to be stupid for thirteen years before she grew up safely. If she can't change her innocent reputation, then how difficult will she be in the Bai family in the future? Today, she was humiliated and wronged, but she was forced by her heartless parents to go to the Chu County Mansion to apologize, she knew that she couldn't insult her family's reputation, so she planned to die, you said that if the two children left by the concubine's daughter are damaged, what face does the concubine have to live in the world?"
The queen mother and the emperor were surprised, they didn't expect this little girl to go through so many things, but she looked pampered and not surprised, it was really not easy.
The Queen Mother also regretted it a little, thinking that Bai Muhibiscus had just said that she would die to thank her, and she only wanted to be innocent, but it was not a lie. The Queen Mother is not a ruthless person, although she hates Bai Mu Hibiscus aggressively, but she can't help but feel some pity at this moment.
"Wushuang, the mourning family didn't expect this child to be so bitter, and your request to the mourning family will not be blocked, this is what she deserves, and she can't let the innocent girl's family be innocently affected by the notoriety!" The Queen Mother said sincerely.
Mrs. Lu took a deep breath to calm down the more and more surging sadness and distress, and said: "Thank you for the mercy of the Queen Mother, but the rules of the ancestors cannot be broken, now I will ask the imperial brother for a grace, the granddaughter of the concubine is the lord of Anping, how to ask for the concubine of the fief, I just hope that she can be safe and worry-free for a lifetime and be content!"
The emperor and the queen mother glanced at each other, a little embarrassed, and the emperor asked: "This Bai Shizu is just a prince, but his daughter has been named the county lord, is it a little unruly?"
Feng Jiuqing coughed lightly, and his eyes gestured to the emperor, only to hear the emperor say: "Ninth brother, in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
Feng Jiuqing didn't pretend to be at this time, arched his hand, and said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with it, this county lord is in the face of Mrs. Lu, and it was sealed by the emperor's token, who dares to say a word? It stands to reason that if Mrs. Lu was named a princess back then, then Miss Bai's mother should also be a county lord, and now that Miss Bai's mother has passed away, then it is very appropriate for this county lord to be awarded to her daughter!"
The emperor felt very reasonable when he heard this, nodded towards Feng Jiuqing, and immediately said: "What the ninth brother said is right, Wushuang, I will approve this matter, it is not early today, let's make the holy decree tomorrow, so there is nothing to be ashamed of when the prince kneels down to apologize to the county lord!"
When the queen mother thought about it, she also felt that it was this reason, the county lord and the county king were of the same grade, Feng Zihan was still a son of the world, kneeling down to the dignified county lord, it was a matter of course, and it couldn't be regarded as humiliating him!
The Queen Mother also glanced at Feng Jiuqing with satisfaction, and felt that this child was still looking at his family, and after a long time, he gave him the best of both worlds.
As long as he doesn't ask for a fief, this county lord is also a name, and there is no pressure to do things, which not only appeases Mrs. Lu, but also shows that the emperor and the queen mother are benevolent and fair. Let the Chu County Mansion come to apologize, and it will not be too embarrassing.
Mrs. Lu got a good word, so she willingly saluted the emperor and the queen mother, took Bai Hibiscus to thank her, and happily left the palace.
Bai Mujian jumped from a white body to the lord of Anping in one day, but the emperor's will has not yet been made, so they don't mention it.
Out of the palace, Mama Rui smiled and said, "The slave maid has asked the county lord of Anping to say goodbye!"
Bai Mu Hibiscus glanced at Mama Rui with disgust and said, "Mama also laughs at me!"
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she was very happy, and suddenly thought of something, and said: "Jin'er, you will become the county lord in the future, but grandma is still just a lady of the county, shouldn't you also salute the county lord?"
Bai Mu Hibiscus was ashamed, and hurriedly said: "Grandma, are you trying to torture Jin'er?
"You are the county lord, with this identity in the future, no one in the Bai family will dare to bully you easily, and thanks to the reminder of His Royal Highness King Xuan, otherwise, I really can't think of this in my brain!" Old Madam Lu said with a smile.
Bai Mujin naturally knows how important the identity of the county lord is to him, and it will be much more convenient to act in the future, otherwise the three of the Lu family's mother and son will probably have to press on their heads, and even Old Madam Bai will not be able to disrespect herself in the future.
The Bai family now has the highest status, so naturally she wants to be powerful, and it's time to clean up the portal!
Old Madam Lu pulled Bai Muhibiscus and said, "Why don't you go to Lu Mansion with me, and go back to Ningguo Mansion early tomorrow morning!"
Bai Mujian shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandma, I still have to go back to the Ningguo Mansion, otherwise how do I know how Erniang and Bai Yunxi arranged me?"
Of course she has to go back, so that they can get the villain first, and tomorrow they will see the holy decree, so that their ugliness will be revealed!
