Chapter 140: Empress Dowager Bai's Concerns

"In a few months?" Pan Yue's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, and asked: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, are you underestimating my old man's ability to do things, and think that it will take several months for me to send someone to Qi County to pull grain back?" ”

As soon as Lu Ying heard this, he felt a little embarrassed.

He really didn't mean that.

Before Lu Yu could explain anything, he heard Pan Yue say: "Since Ling'er asked you to come to me for help, you can leave this matter to me with confidence." As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Lu Jue said gratefully: "Okay, senior." ”

After a while, Bai Jiaojiao returned to the living room, took a cup of tea handed to her by Pan Yue, and sat on the Taishi chair next to her to drink tea.

The tea that Pan Forging gave her to drink is also the new tea of the real estate of Qi County, and it has the effect of quenching her thirst.

Sitting in the hall, I could hear what Lu Ban and Pan Yue said. She heard them talk about inconsequential things first, and then about Shen Tuying and them. When referring to General Shentu, Pan Yue also mentioned her father, Bai Xizhao, and her uncle Bai Ximing.

Pan Yue said, "Heh, speaking of which, I am also quite close to the people of the Bai family. ”

Lu Yu looked at Pan Yue with puzzled eyes and asked, "Let's hear it?" ”

"In the early years, the horse chopping sword that the emperor gave to General Bai Lao was made by my own hands when my father was alive. General Bai Lao was brave and good at fighting, and for the people of the Dajing Dynasty, he recovered a lot of lost territory, and it was only fitting that the emperor rewarded him with such a good weapon. ”

"That's, that's. The Bai clan has many talents, and all of them are loyal ministers, so they should indeed be rewarded. In front of Bai Jiaojiao, Lu Jue praised the people of the Bai clan without hesitation.

Bai Jiaojiao listened to it and was very grateful to Lu Yu in her heart.

Although the Bai family has produced a lot of talents, she is even more happy to hear the royal family members praise their Bai family like this.

Just when Bai Jiaojiao was happy, Pan Yue's words came to her ears again: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, the Bai family is talented, and the old decay is not denied." But you only said one thing, but you didn't say the other. That is, in some big families, although there will be a lot of talents, there will also be a few scum......"

This was already a relatively euphemistic statement, and after Bai Jiaojiao listened to it, she quickly heard the sound of the words. Pan Yue means that the scum of the Bai family,

It's her uncle, Bai Ximing.

Bai Ximing is greedy for money and good se, although he is also a brave man, his character is not good. Merit is merit, and excess, and the two cannot eliminate each other.

Bai Jiaojiao was ready to stand up and leave this hall, so that it would be convenient for Pan Dare to talk to His Royal Highness the Second Prince

But at this moment, Pan Yue's words came from her ears: "Girl, don't go to your heart." You, Uncle Pan, and I are honest people, and I will not talk nonsense about things that have not been investigated. You're afraid you don't know yet, do you? In this imperial city, your uncle has an outer chamber, and a daughter with that outer chamber, who is a year older than you. ”

Bai Jiaojiao was not surprised at all when she heard this.

In all these years, my uncle never took money to support the family. So, where did all the uncle's money go? That's a problem.

The aunt and cousin wanted to know the answer to this question, and the uncle's concubines, mother and daughter, also wanted to know the answer to that question.

She didn't care if they knew the answer to that question. But now that she knew the answer to this question, she didn't care about any reserve, and asked Pan Yue directly: "Uncle Pan, can you tell me where my uncle's outer room lives, and what is his name?" ……”

Pan Yue answered truthfully.

After listening to this, Bai Jiaojiao decided in her heart that she would go back for a while, and wait until late at night to meet her uncle's outer room for a while.

An hour and a half later.

Bai Jiaojiao, escorted by Lu Jue, returned to Zhou Shiling's house.

After Lu Ying sent the melons and fruits over, he rode back to Zishuiqiao Village. It is good to arrange some people to go to Pan Mansion to transport grain to the land of Weiyuan and give it to the victims to eat.

After she returned to Zhou Shiling's house, she told Zhou Shiling everything she heard from Pan Yue.

Including some ugly things about their Bai family, she also talked about it.

After Zhou Shiling heard this, she said to Bai Jiaojiao: "Your uncle is outside, he is originally such a person, Jingjun soldiers, who doesn't know?" ”

Hearing this, Bai Jiaojiao felt even more embarrassed.

This uncle was the one she had assigned to her after coming to this plane. Whether she likes it or not, accept the reality that she has such an uncle with bad character.

I know that in this Dajing Dynasty, it is inconvenient for unmarried women to inquire about some private affairs of their elders. I had to wait for Zhou Shiling to say, and it was not good to ask myself.

Zhou Shiling saw Bai Jiaojiao looking at her, wanting to speak and stopping, as if she wanted to hear what she said, but it was inconvenient to ask her. Thinking that Su Xi was not someone else, he told Bai Jiaojiao truthfully: "The women your uncle had, I only said that after I grew up, I knew during the war, and that added up, I am afraid that there are dozens of them." ”

Bai Jiaojiao blushed slightly, the Bai family has such a scumbag as her uncle Bai Ximing, and it is really the misfortune of the people of the Bai family.

"I remember very well, once, your uncle went to a celebration banquet with us, and when he came back, he took possession of Shen Tuying's personal maid." Zhou Shiling pursed her lips and said, "Shen Tuying wants to kill your uncle, saying that he is sorry for your aunt, that is, sorry for her husband's own sister." But your uncle said that she had not disciplined her handmaid properly, because it was her handmaid who had entered into his cowhide tent by herself, and asked him to comfort her. He's a big man, doesn't he give her face, she? ”

Shen Tuying was so angry that she stabbed the servant girl to death with a sword. Say anything to keep a scourge by your side, it's annoying to look at it, it's better to get rid of that scourge, which makes people worry-free. ”

Bai Jiaojiao heard this and nodded slightly.

It seems that it is Shen Tuying's personal maid who has long been secretly in love with her uncle Bai Huiming. Otherwise, how could that person take the initiative to run to Bai Ximing's cowhide tent,

Relentless rejection

Waiting for Bai Ximing to be good with her?

"This kind of thing, as long as my uncle doesn't lie to people and doesn't force people. Personally, I think that Shen Tuying's maid is also wrong. Bai Jiaojiao said what she thought in her heart.

"Heh, who made your Bai family's sons and daughters look so good?" When Zhou Shiling said this, she hooked her lips embarrassedly and said, "Let me tell you something, Jiaojiao, don't take it to heart." ”

"No, Sister Shiling, you can say it." Bai Jiaojiao showed an empathetic smile and told Zhou Shiling.

The men and women of the Bai family are all good-looking. This is a well-known fact, and she has nothing to be modest in front of Zhou Shiling.

Zhou Shiling said softly: "In fact, many years ago, in the years when your mother just left, whether it was in the imperial city, or in Shengjun and other places, there were many famous ladies who had not yet come out of the cabinet and admired your father." But your father is different from your uncle, if he doesn't like it, he won't agree to someone, and he won't touch a single hair. ”

"That's because my father still has feelings for my mother, and he is very disciplined in these areas. In the years after their marriage, although they met less and separated more, they often kept in touch by letters. My mother also loved my father, and when I was six years old, my mother was killed when she was riding in a carriage to visit my father in a foreign country......"

Bai Jiaojiao couldn't help crying when she talked about it.

Although she hadn't met her biological mother since she came to this plane. But in the memory left by the original Bai Jiaojiao, her mother is a talented woman with a captivating face and superb medical skills, and the key is that she is kind-hearted and treats people very well.

That kind of elder, whether she has seen it or not, is something she respects.

Zhou Shiling heard this and sighed: "Yes, your father loves your mother very much, even if your mother has been gone for so many years, he still hasn't accepted any other woman." Shen Tuying also said the same thing when she quarreled with your uncle last time, saying that your uncle is less than one percent of your father's self-discipline in terms of self-discipline. ”

"But your uncle is justified in saying that he is on the march, and his wife and concubines are far away in the imperial city. He is a normal man, and he can't be forced to make peace every day

Still. ”

Saying this, Zhou Shiling lowered her head in embarrassment and stopped talking.

Bai Jiaojiao despises the man like her uncle very much, although Shen Tuying's personal maid likes her uncle, but her uncle can't have anything to do with others because they like him and take the initiative to find him.

If every man on the march thought the same way as his uncle, wouldn't there be more women to suffer?

Bai Jiaojiao thought to herself, fortunately, not long ago, with the help of Zhou Shiling and them, she divided the family with the Wan family.

Now, Wan is still squatting in the prison, and Bai Qingyun, the annoying woman, has also moved out of Baifu to live.

The uncle's concubine, and the daughter born to the uncle's concubine, lived in a room near the prison, and they only had to pay for their food every day

Good.

“…… Luckily, I split them up in the first place. In this way, even if they cause something outside after they move out, it has nothing to do with these people in our longhouse. ”

Bai Jiaojiao told Zhou Shiling and Su Xidao.

"Oh, you can't say that." Zhou Shiling stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction where the imperial city was located, and said, "They are causing trouble outside, whether they will let you help them deal with anything, it depends on whether they are causing trouble, whether it is big or small." If you cause a big disaster, you people from the Bai clan will not be able to escape from it. ”

Bai Jiaojiao thought about it and thought that what Zhou Shiling said was right.

This is a trouble, and it also scores one point. For example, if her uncle was in the company of others for money, he would do something excessive, and betray the interests of the people of the Daejing Dynasty. That will inevitably commit the great sin of destroying the nine clans.

They are all members of the Bai clan, and they will also be punished.

But if her uncle only caused a little trouble, for example, her uncle raised a few outer rooms and had a few children with others. His uncle had to pay for child support, and that was her uncle's own business. It really has nothing to do with the people in their longhouse.

“…… As long as my uncle doesn't commit a big crime, the people on this side of our longhouse will be fine. Bai Jiaojiao said.

After dinner.

Bai Jiaojiao stayed until late at night, took her sword, and quietly slipped out, heading to the village north of the land of Weiyuan, Xiangzhuang Village.

She heard from Lu Ying that the outer room raised by her uncle lived in Group 7 of Xiangzhuang Village. Uncle's outer room, which used to be the head I card of Huayuan Building, is a famous dancing girl in the imperial city, Xiangmi.

Uncle likes to be good at singing and dancing, good at writing and painting, good at music and rhythm, and beautiful and incomprehensible dancing girls, fragrant honey. So he raised money everywhere to redeem himself for Xiangmi.

Because the aunt was still young at that time, the uncle was thinking that if the aunt could give him another son, then no matter what, it would still be his Bai Ximing's sister-in-law.

Even if you marry Xiangmi home as a concubine and give him a son, it will only be a concubine son. He is a general of the Jing army, and no matter what, he can't promote his concubine to his wife and do illegal things, so as not to be punished when he gets it.
