Chapter 9: The Outer Chamber
Bai Qingyan looked at Qin Shangzhi: "If Mr. Qin doesn't give up, I am willing to ask Mr. to ......."
"Qin will leave after healing his injuries!" Qin Shangzhi hurriedly interrupted her words without waiting for Bai Qingyan to speak, Bai Qingyan's intention he understood, he clenched his fists, "Forgive me, eldest girl, Qin Mou was carried away this time to assassinate King Liang, and he still regretted the death of his brothers, Qin's ambition in this life is to be in the Sheji court, and he will definitely block King Liang's way to the top, and he will never be confined to the backyard." ”
Qin Shangzhi's ambition is so great, otherwise he would not have entered the prince's mansion in his previous life.
Bai Qingyan didn't want to coerce him, and said to Qin Shangzhifu after a moment of silence: "The court is like the sea, and Mr. is like Jiao, Bai Qingyan wishes Mr. as expected, and Jiaolong will get water and clouds to make rain and soar to the sky." ”
Qin Shangzhi seemed to be surprised that Bai Qingyan would say this, he covered his heart tightly and stood up, and it was rare to respectfully bow to Bai Qingyan with a fist.
Bai Qingyan took the hand stove from Chun Tao's hand and walked back along the way he came.
Although Qin Shangzhi was reluctant to stay and help her, Qin Shangzhi's words had already made her stunned.
She thought of the "Letter to the Emperor" left by her mother who committed suicide in prison in her previous life, the picture of most of the students in the capital being angry and seeking justice for the Bai family, and the distressed appearance of King Liang who had a headache in the mansion and complained that he couldn't share his worries for the present.
The crowd is full of gold, accumulating and destroying bones, and people's words are terrible.
Even the supreme authority of the present has something to fear, afraid of what people say! Fear of public anger! I'm afraid that a hundred years later, I will end up with a reputation for harming Zhongliang!
Now my grandfather's life and death are unknown...... Even died in southern Xinjiang, and the Bai family could not retreat.
If she can't retreat, then she will go one step further and push the Bai family's reputation to the peak, so that everyone will not dare to make a move against the Bai family.
Even in the end, the Great Jin Kingdom still couldn't escape the fate of being destroyed by the Great Yan, and it was famous...... I hope that the Bai family can also be preserved.
Mama Jiang, who went to Qinghui Courtyard to invite Bai Qingyan, did not expect to meet Bai Qingyan on the road, so she stepped forward in three steps and two steps.
"Big sister!" Mama Jiang bowed, "The eldest princess, please come over." ”
Bai Qingyan pursed her lips: "What does grandmother have planned?" ”
Mama Jiang nodded with red eyes.
Only then did Bai Qingyan raise her feet and follow Mama Jiang towards the eldest princess's longevity courtyard, and on the way, she asked her about her grandmother after she left yesterday.
"Eldest sister, don't worry that the eldest princess is the daughter of the first emperor and the first queen, and she can hold on." Mama Jiang held an umbrella for Bai Qingyan, and couldn't help but redden, "It's that the eldest sister is still a child......"
As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the Longevity Courtyard, the maid opened the curtain for Bai Qingyan, and when she saw Bai Qingyan go in, Mama Jiang sent all the maids inside and outside out, and then she went into the house and took the white fox Mao Dayu that Bai Qingyan had untied: "The old slave is guarding outside, and the eldest sister and your eldest princess have a good talk." ”
Through the bead curtain, Bai Qingyan's eyes turned red when she saw her grandmother sitting on the kang with her eyes closed and fiddling with the Buddha beads.
"Grandmother......" Bai Qingyan called softly.
The eldest princess opened her eyes and saw Bai Qingyan open the bead curtain and come in, and stretched out her hand: "Bao, come!" ”
Bai Qingyan walked in front of the eldest princess, and the eldest princess sighed a few times before asking with red eyes: "You tell grandmother, who gave you the news one step faster than the imperial court." ”
"Before my grandfather left, my granddaughter asked the two secret guards that my grandfather gave me to accompany me to protect my grandfather, and one of them took his last breath and came back to give his granddaughter the news, saying that my Bai family was killed by my grandfather's deputy general Liu Huanzhang and the people in the court! The granddaughter didn't dare to speak out without evidence, and quietly arranged for someone to be buried thickly. ”
The words were thought of by Bai Qingyan before he came to the Longevity Hospital yesterday, and Zhen Guogong had given Bai Qingyan two outstanding secret guards, and when Zhen Guogong went on the expedition, he ...... Bai Qingyan did let the two secret guards accompany him to protect the Zhenguo Gong, but the two secret guards in the previous life were ...... In order to save the town, Guogong also fell to southern Xinjiang with the Bai family's boys.
The eldest princess couldn't help but grieve, her lips trembled violently, she closed her eyes for a long time, and slapped her palm the kang table: "My Bai family boy can die in battle, but he must not die by traitors!" ”
"Grandmother, now that the matter has come to this, we still need to make plans early......" Bai Qingyan grabbed the eldest princess's hand, obviously having her own considerations, "If my Bai family boy is really trapped, I'm afraid that someone wants to take away the Bai family's army from the Bai family!" ”
The eldest princess clasped the edge of the kang table with her hand.
"But the Bai family army has always only recognized the Bai family! Grandfather and father are more auspicious, but I am afraid that the people who will harm our Bai family will have a backhand, grandmother...... Now you are the only reliance of the Bai family, bearing the brunt! Bai Qingyan analyzed with the eldest princess.
"They dream!" The eldest princess gritted her teeth, "Before the first queen left, I left me a royal secret guard that only the emperor and queen had, after marrying your grandfather, I felt that I would use this secret guard again, and I have never moved again on my dowry Zhuangzi for many years, and it seems that I have to move now." ”
Bai Qingyan was quite surprised, in her previous life, she had never heard her grandmother say that there was such a secret guard in her hands, if so, she was not worried about her grandmother's safety.
"Grandmother, even if my grandfather, father, uncle, brother and brother are gone! And the granddaughter is here! Bai Qingyan held the eldest princess's hand and said solemnly, "Grandmother, you must take care of your health!" If I have a grandmother in my granddaughter, I will have confidence, and my granddaughter will do her best to protect my Bai family and prevent my Bai family boy from dying of grievances......"
The eldest princess was filled with tears by Bai Qingyan's words, and held Bai Qingyan in her arms and choked up.
The two slowed down for a long time, and the eldest princess pressed the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and asked Bai Qingyan: "Bao, do you already have a charter in your heart?" ”
"Woe to Xiao Wall, I'm afraid that the subordinates of the family will have to investigate it strictly, but this matter has to be investigated secretly, and the granddaughter will discuss with her mother that it is okay to make the grandmother in charge, so you don't have to bother!"
The eldest princess nodded.
Bai Qingyan thought of the son born to the so-called second uncle's outer room that King Liang found later, and raised his eyes to look at the eldest princess: "There is another thing I want to ask my grandmother, second uncle...... Is there an outer room? ”
The second uncle in Bai Qingyan's mouth is the second son of the eldest princess and the younger brother of Bai Qingyan's father.
The eldest princess pursed her lips.
Seeing the appearance of the eldest princess, Bai Qingyan's heart also sank, it turned out that the one who was helped up by King Liang in his previous life was really the son of the second uncle's outer room.
"It's not as serious as the outer room, but it's true that your second uncle is sorry for your second aunt, when your second uncle was rescued by a girl when he was on a study tour, and the two of them had a friendship......" The eldest princess wanted to speak and stopped, Bai Qingyan was a girl who had not left the pavilion and some words could not be said to Bai Qingyan, "Later, your second uncle returned to the house, and before leaving, he gave the dragon pattern jade pendant given to him by his grandmother to the girl as a token, and he planned to go back to the house to discuss with your second aunt and then integrate the girl into the house as a good concubine, but at that time, your second aunt was pregnant, and this was not said." ”
