As the carriage passed by Evergreen Street, there was a sudden commotion in front of them, and the crowd surged, instantly blocking their route.

"What's wrong?" Bai Qingshuang raised the curtain and looked outside and asked.

"It seems that there is some new proclamation from the imperial court!" Zhou Ming stopped the carriage, glanced at Bai Qingshuang inquiringly and asked, "Do you want to go and have a look, maybe it has something to do with the opening of the market!" ”

"Let's go too, the left and right roads are blocked, and we can't get through for a while!" Bai Qingshuang said, and got out of the car with Bai Qingfeng.

Zhou Ming parked the carriage to the side and went over with the two siblings.

Before he approached the place where the court had posted a notice, he heard someone discussing eagerly: "What? It turns out that the change in the weather is because the feng shui of the Great Confucian Bai family suppressed the emperor's qi, which caused this rare early winter? ”

"Qin Tianjian's monitoring must not be wrong, I heard that the prison also saw that there will be countless white shadows moving around inside and outside the Baifu Courtyard at night!"

"Yes! Oh, yes! The knowledgeable old man has said that if the white shadow turns into a yellow shadow, then it is not the gods who have given a warning to change the climate, but to directly take away the inheritance of the one above! ”

"It's really fake! You can't talk nonsense! ”

"Of course it's true......"

Listening to these speculations, Bai Qingshuang's forehead twitched, it's terrible to be uneducated, isn't it just that the sky has changed in advance, and it is much colder than normal previous years, can this become this kind of rumor?

You must know that sometimes extreme weather may occur due to changes in ocean currents, which is also a special case in the meteorological sense of later generations.

However, considering the current lack of knowledge, it is understandable that such unwarranted speculation has emerged.

It's just, how is it Baifu?

The brother and sister couldn't help but glance at each other, obviously Bai Qingfeng and her had the same idea.

Baifu is also a century-old home in the capital, with the title of the first Confucian family, although she looks at the family pampered, eyes above the top, and in fact, the outside is hollow, but after all, it is the family that has experienced hundreds of years, there is a way that a hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, this Baifu should not be unlucky so soon!

The brother and sister relied on the small and thin people, and finally squeezed to the front of the notice in the crowd of people, only to see the bright yellow notice written: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, the mansion of the Confucian Baifu suppressed the dragon vein, so that the sky changed, the people were affected, and the Baifu was specially ordered to move away from the place and open another house!" ”

In a few simple words, the Baifu that has occupied the south for hundreds of years can be moved, which shows the majesty of the emperor.

At the same time, the will announced to the White Mansion was announced to the public, and it was also an excuse for the emperor to inform the world that it was not that the emperor was unkind, did not love the people, and did not hesitate to be good ministers, but the will of heaven was so, in order for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and for the emperor to be more diligent and love the people, the White Mansion had to move to a new location.

Moreover, according to the old calendar, if there is a natural disaster, the emperor will take the Qin Tianjian and the civil and military officials to bathe and burn incense, eat fasting and pray for blessings, and seek well-being for the people.

In that case, it was another move to work the people and lose money, and the relocation of the small Baifu would naturally save a lot of silver taels from the treasury.

Bai Qingshuang couldn't help sighing: The evil old society, don't offend the emperor if you offend anyone!

Someone around him was discussing in a low voice: "The emperor is merciful, the Baifu suppressed the dragon vein, and the emperor didn't condemn him, but just ordered them to relocate, which is also to maintain the century-old foundation of Confucianism!" ”

"It's hard to say if that's the case!" Someone responded in a mocking whisper, "Who doesn't know that the four Confucian families in the capital are friendly, but secretly they are fighting for you to the death for who is the head of Confucianism!" ”

"Then you mean, someone is deliberately trying to confront Bai Da Confucian?"

"I didn't say that!"

"And what do you mean?"

"Hey, who knows......"

Listening to these whispered discussions, Bai Qingshuang took Bai Qingfeng's hand and said in a low voice: "Brother, let's go!" ”

Now, the rise and fall of Baifu has nothing to do with them.

Moreover, they just moved to live in a place, and they were not rejected by the emperor for the time being, but no one knows what will happen in the future.

"Hmm!" Bai Qingfeng responded, his eyes swept lightly over the crowd of discussions, and he withdrew from the crowd with Bai Qingshuang without saying anything.

After meeting with Zhou Ming, Bai Qingshuang thought about it and said: "Brother Zhou, the matter of Baifu, please don't mention it to my father and mother, I'm afraid they will still be worried!" ”

"Hmmm! Got it! Zhou Ming heard from Wan Niang about what happened on the day of Old Man Bai's birthday banquet, and his honest heart was also very disgusted with the snobbish Baifu people, so he naturally didn't talk too much.

Bai Qingshuang turned his head to look at Bai Qingfeng again, worried that Bai Qingfeng would not be able to help but go back and say, after all, he was the descendant of the Bai family.

Bai Qingfeng rubbed her head funny and said, "I only recognize my parents and Shuang'er!" ”

"Hee-hee! That's good! Bai Qingshuang immediately bared her teeth and smiled, "I'm just worried that my father and mother are too kind, they are just moving their addresses, and my father and mother may be too worried!" ”

Whether it's as simple as moving her address, she doesn't know, but judging from the discussions of those people just now, if it really has something to do with other Confucian families, this may be just the beginning.

At the same time, in the white mansion, chickens and dogs are busy up and down.

After the emperor's decree was read, the eunuch left a sentence that after moving out of here within half a month, he threw his hand and left.

The anxious Bai Mansion went round and round, and the old man Bai was even more depressed and almost turned his back on him.

"Why is there a white light at night, I think someone is looking at us unpleasantly and deliberately wants to drive us away!" Bai Zhigao, who hadn't had time to go out to the private school, was so angry that he paced back and forth in the hall, "If there is any strange light in our Bai Mansion, don't the people in the mansion who are on duty at night know about it?" ”

"What's the use of talking about this now, let's hurry up and find a place to live!" Bai Zhifei, who was told that he didn't need to go to court today, was also sulky.

I thought that there would be some good news today, but the emperor asked Zhou Hai, the head of internal affairs, to pass on the edict to him to wait at home, who knew that such a shocking thunderbolt was coming.

"At this moment, where can I find a mansion as big as our Bai Mansion!" The eldest grandson, Bai Qinglin, followed his father irritably for a while, and from time to time he had to look at the sulky old man Bai, I don't know whether to wait for the old man to open his mouth to make an idea, or worry that he would hang up so angry.

"It's good to find a place to stay, where do you dare to ask for a mansion as big as ours!" Among the crowd, even the Baiyang clan said the most calmly, "Today's holy decree, the whole capital must know about our Baifu pressing the dragon vein, I'm afraid that as long as our people go out to ask about the house, they must either be troubled and refuse to sell, or the tide will rise and the price will be high!" ”

"They dare!" When Bai Zhang's heard that it would cost him more money to buy a house again, he immediately shouted angrily, "The emperor just asked us to move, and it wasn't that we made a mistake, why did they bully us!" ”

"The eldest daughter-in-law is right, the foundation and prestige of our Bai family are still here, there will never be such a thing, the third daughter-in-law, don't be alarmist!" Old Mrs. Bai finally came to her senses, glanced at the old man Bai who was still sulking and in a daze, and said to Bai Zhang, "Old man, you quickly send someone out to find a house!" ”

"Mother, can't you let your father enter the palace to beg the emperor? Let the emperor find out clearly, there must be a villain who secretly colluded with Qin Tianjian to frame us! Bai Zhang looked at the old lady Bai with a bitter face.

She has presided over the house for many years, and has hidden a lot of private money in the house, and this move is bound to take out all the things and pack them, if this enters the eyes of others, she will definitely be scolded by the old lady.

"The emperor was caught off guard, do you think it's useful just because we go to the Jinluan Palace to cry out for grievances?" Bai Zhigao glared at Bai Zhang, who had a bag of grass in his head, and said impatiently, "Do whatever your mother asks you to do, what kind of system is it that you are verbose!" ”

"Am I not here for the good of all of us? Ask, who wants to move out like this! Bai Zhang glared at her husband unconvinced.

"Sister-in-law, it's not a matter of unwillingness now, now, the entire capital is probably already aware of the emperor's decree, so even if we all shout grievances, I'm afraid it won't have any effect!" Bai Zhifei pretended to be calm and said: "Sister-in-law, you still have to ask people about the house first, and let's figure out the rest!" ”

"What do you think, the emperor asked us to move, do you still think you can beat the emperor?" The old man Bai, who seemed to have finally come to his senses, suddenly shouted, stared at his children and grandchildren and said, "Also, eldest daughter-in-law, don't pick a big mansion, just ordinary enough for a family to live in, as for the servants and women, those who can be sent will be sent away, I want to see what they want to do!" ”

"Father!"

"Grandfather!"

As soon as they heard that they were going to move to a small house and that they were going to send off their servants, the family immediately screamed.

You must know that the equipment of their subordinates in each room and courtyard is based on the basic equipment of large families.

One big maid, three second-class maids, a number of third- and fourth-class maids, as well as rough envoys, small maids, domestic servants, etc., are all fully equipped, that is to say, there is no need for the master to do it at all, there are people who serve and dress, eat, etc., etc., if this reduces the number of people, then some things are bound to be done by themselves.

After being pampered for so many years, how could they possibly endure such treatment!

"What is it called, let you do what you want, if you don't want to do it, just like the second family, move out and live alone!" Old man Bai glared at his old eyes and looked at his children and grandchildren majestically.

As soon as Mrs. Bai heard that he was talking about the second family, her face immediately sank, and when the children and grandchildren wanted to say something, she preemptively said: "Everyone be quiet, just do what you have to do, now it's pointless for us to argue here!" ”

Seeing that the old lady also spoke, everyone quieted down.
