Chapter 55: Self-defeating
Hongqiao's heart jumped suddenly, she had long known that the eldest girl of the Bai family was powerful, and she wanted to die after she finished speaking, so that Bai Qingyan could not defend herself, but who knew that she was actually restrained, and she was a little panicked in her heart.
Bai Qingyan sat down on the chair brought by the porter, handed the hand stove to Chun Tao and told her to add a piece of charcoal, and then spoke slowly: "What do you mean by this, do you want to slander me and King Liang for having an affair?" โ
Hongqiao's heart was beating hard, and she didn't answer Bai Qingyan's words and just cried: "Big girl, Your Highness came here four days ago despite her serious injury for the sake of the girl's food and sleep, and you still don't see you!" If this continues, I'm afraid Your Highness won't be able to live! โ
"Jintong, tell the housekeeper to go to King Liang's mansion, and say that King Liang is not seriously ill...... I bothered to invite King Liang to come in person, and the girl in his house made a big fuss at the main gate of my country's mansion. If King Liang is seriously ill and can't move, then I can only invite the eldest princess to come to the door in person and solve this matter at the gate of King Liang's mansion! After she finished speaking to Bai Jintong with a tough attitude, she turned back and looked at Hong Qiao with a smile, with a frank attitude, "This matter is related to my reputation, and the confrontation must be clear!" โ
Hongqiao was about to speak, but the words were cut off by Bai Qingyan: "However, since Hongqiao girl said that King Liang came to our Baifu four days ago, there must be no big problem with the injury, and she will definitely be able to come." โ
Bai Qingyan's eyes were like torches, and Hong Qiao was shocked by her cold smile, and her spine was chilled, and she panicked.
King Liang sent someone to follow Hongqiao together, and when the man saw that the situation was not good, he immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet and went back to report to King Liang.
But the steward of the Guogong Mansion went much faster than King Liang expected, and as soon as his people finished talking to him about the situation at the gate of the Guogong Mansion, it was rumored that the steward of the Guogong Mansion came to invite King Liang.
King Liang sat in front of the brazier with his eyes closed, angry that Hong Qiao did not act according to the plan, she was too eager to kill Bai Qingyan with her life, and it was self-defeating.
Although King Liang knew that this was Hongqiao's loyalty that he could sacrifice his life for, he was too impatient to mess things up and was still incompetent.
Thinking of Bai Qingyan's crooked nose in front of the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion during this time, disposing of her second uncle's concubine on the long street, coupled with the matter at the palace banquet, let him confront Bai Qingyan like this now, King Liang was very bottomless.
It would be good if Du Zhiwei was here at this time, and he could still ask Du Zhiwei how to deal with it! King Liang only felt that the wound was tight, as if it was bleeding again, and his head hurt badly.
After calming down and thinking about it, King Liang asked Tong Ji to change his clothes.
What he wants to do now is to repair the relationship with Bai Qingyan, instead of forcibly tying Bai Qingyan to himself.
Anyway, his reputation for being weak and incompetent has long been known to everyone, and he is not afraid to bow down in front of Bai Qingyan, as long as he bites to death and says that he has a deep affection for Bai Qingyan, it is Hong Qiao who offends Bai Qingyan without knowing the severity.
Originally, King Liang didn't want to have anything to do with the Zhenguo Mansion on the bright side, so as not to be implicated at that time, but now, ...... I can't care about that much. It's good to take his "heart" Bai Qingyan's matter to the bright road, it's a big deal to use his "weak" state to enter the palace and cry to beg His Majesty for marriage, Bai Qingyan is so bold that he doesn't dare to resist the decree!
King Liang put on a big hat, and then realized that his dependence on Du Zhiwei was too serious, so that as soon as Du Zhiwei died, he was like a pair of wings folded. It's still necessary to find an opportunity, and then find a suitable staff.
ยท
Soon, the housekeeper of King Liang's Mansion and Tong Ji and Gao Sheng, who were beside King Liang, hurried to the gate of Guogong Mansion.
Seeing that there were so many people watching the excitement in front of the Zhenguo Mansion, the housekeeper of Liang Wangfu hurriedly saluted Bai Qing: "Miss Bai can't help it, the old slave is the housekeeper of Liang Wangfu, and the old slave did not discipline the people in the mansion well, and caused trouble to the big girl Bai, so the old slave will bring people back!" โ
"Slow down," she looked at the housekeeper ......of King Liang's Mansion and asked with a smile, "What about His Royal Highness King Liang?" โ
"Our Highness vomited a mouthful of blood in the middle of the carriage just now, and has been sent back to the house! Why can't it be that Miss Bai still wants our Highness to lead people? Something happened to His Royal Highness, and ten big white girls couldn't afford it! Tong Ji puffed out his cheeks and glared at Bai Qingyan, annoyed by this woman's iron heart.
She didn't even look at Tong Ji, a pawn beside King Liang, she didn't pay attention to it.
"Since King Liang is seriously injured and can't come, then bother the old man to tell His Royal Highness King Liang for me!" She stood up with her hands in her hands, stood on the high stairs and said condescendingly to the housekeeper of Liang Wangfu, "Four days ago, my country's government sent a total of thirty-nine people, and my personal maid Chunyan was beaten fifty boards and now can't get out of bed, and no one else knows what the reason is!" Today, I will make it clear to the old man in front of the Guogong Mansion......"
She stared at King Liang's right-hand man Gao Sheng, and said with a stiff face: "Because His Royal Highness King Liang bought five people from my government's mansion and corresponded with the maidservants in my courtyard to inquire about my privacy, my mother broke the legs of those five people and sold them to the whole family. Chunyan ...... It was because she grew up with me since I was a child and saved the life of the servant girl I valued the most, so I spared her life. โ
The housekeeper of the Liang Wangfu was covered with sweat, and Tong Ji stood there with a weak heart.
"This girl just said that King Liang gave me a jade pendant and didn't accept it, and I didn't see it when I was seriously injured! Why?! She raised her voice, her face was cold and solemnly said to the housekeeper of the Liang Palace, "Although I am a woman, I have also read the books of sages since I was a child, and I know what courtesy, righteousness and shame are!" Everything must be on the right path! If Your Highness is pleased with me, you can ask the elders to come to your door and ask me if I am engaged, if not...... Ask the matchmaker to come to the door again! At that time, the words of the matchmaker of the parents, I Bai Qingyan will never say anything! This is called respect! โ
"But look at what Your Highness has done, buy off my Bai family, secretly listen to my privacy from the girl next to me, and ask my girl to see me three or four times! In order not to embarrass my grandmother and the royal family, I endured it again and again! I thought that after betraying my subordinates to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, as long as my country's government and I Bai Qingyan are self-respecting, I will not be afraid of anything! But I really couldn't have imagined that His Royal Highness would use this dirty and dirty means to order the girl in the house to slander my reputation with her life! โ
"You ......" Tong Ji was angry when he heard Bai Qingyan's words, and only said, "Miss Bai also thinks too highly of herself, our Royal Highness is the prince of the dynasty, who can't do it!" Could it be that you have to do it?! The heirs of the big white girl are difficult, and our highness does not dislike you, what kind of shelf do you put on and pretend to be high! โ
"Tong Ji! Retire! The housekeeper of the Liang Palace's face turned white.
"So, His Royal Highness King Liang thinks that my Bai Qingyan's heir is difficult...... If your reputation is ruined, there will only be one way out of the Liang Palace?! Her face was gloomy and imposing, "The tired old man went back and told King Liang that the bones of my Bai family are not bent!" I, Bai Qingyan, put my words here today, this life is to marry a pig and a dog! Nor will I commit myself to such a treacherous villain! โ
