Chapter 11: Rumors

She sat there for a moment before picking up the medicine box and preparing to leave.

When she went out, Bai Xiyue handed over the medicine to Dark One and explained the dosage.

"By the way, the medicine I just gave to the prince will make people fall asleep for a while, so you don't have to worry too much."

Bai Xiyue thought about it and found a more suitable reason. Explain why he fell asleep when he treated the regent, so that Gu Yichen would not have trouble with her when he woke up.

After saying that, as soon as she understood the darkness, she followed the original path to find the familiar wall and climbed out.

The corners of his mouth twitched and looked at her, such an unsightly action of climbing over the wall, I really wanted to tell her that the palace was authentic, and there was no need to use such an ugly action to climb over the wall.

When Gu Yichen came out with a wheelchair. I can only see the back of Bai Xiyue.

"A man with secrets, interesting." He touched the ribbon in his hand and smiled.

When I saw the smile of my master, I only felt a chill in my back.

"Master, what a secret, didn't Doctor Bai say that you were asleep!" Darkly remembered what Bai Xiyue had told him just now.

"I want to sleep now," Gu Yichen looked at Dark One lazily, turned his wheelchair, and was about to go to the bedroom, when he suddenly stopped halfway through, as if he remembered something.

"By the way, get rid of the people who are staring at her."

Gu Yichen remembered what Bai Xiyue said before, those people were no threat to him, so he ignored these mortal flies, but they were eyeing Bai Xiyue, so they couldn't stay any longer.

"Master, are you worried that Doctor Bai will be in danger!"

Before, Dark One noticed that there were more people around the palace, and when he reported to the prince, he just said lightly that those people were just clowns who jumped off the beam, and it was not worth the effort to deal with them, so let them guard it, but now because Doctor Bai was targeted, he was about to be eradicated, and Dark One seemed to smell a trace of something unusual.

Gu Yichen touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "I just think her action of climbing over the wall is too ugly."

Listening to such a venomous reply, the dark one's breath almost didn't come up, and the unusual feeling in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"Lord, can you marry a daughter-in-law like this!"

"Do you want to go back and train again?" Gu Yichen looked coldly at the dark one with a worried face.

"No, I'm going to carry out the mission.

Bai Xiyue didn't know at this time that someone had started a discussion about whether her action over the wall was ugly or not, and if she heard it, she might shoot back: "It doesn't matter if it's ugly or not, just save your life." This circumvention of the wall is a family heirloom, and it is still very useful at critical moments.

After she climbed over the wall and went out, she went back the other way, completely avoiding the crowded places, just to see if anyone was following, and strangely those people did not appear again.

However, for the sake of insurance, she still went to Baihualou first, and then slipped out of the backyard.

On the side of the Regent's Mansion, as soon as Dark Yi solved the eyeliner around him, he saw that Gonggong Xia was taking it, and his little eunuchs came again.

"Father-in-law Xia, what are you doing this time?"

Dark Yi walked over first, the sword in his hand was still dripping blood, he didn't have a good face for Gonggong Xia, who let this eunuch wear a pair of pants with the emperor.

"This, this, the miscellaneous family should see the regent and talk about it."

Father-in-law Xia is someone who has seen such a scene, and when he saw the swords of the dark one coming over, he was so frightened that he was about to say nothing.

Dark One didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and brought him directly to the prince.

"Seeing the prince, let's talk, what's the matter!"

Dark One stood beside Gu Yichen with his hands on his chest, with an attacking posture.

Gu Yichen didn't say anything, just stared at the holy decree in Grandpa Xia's hand.

"This, the miscellaneous family is here to deliver the decree, and the regent will receive it."

Father-in-law Xia looked at the regent's darkening face, and his tone of voice trembled.

"Just say something." Gu Yichen said toughly.

"The emperor gave Miss Liu Ruyan to you as a princess, and she was ordered to get married on a certain day."

Gonggong Xia doesn't care about any rules and regulations at the moment, he just hopes to go back soon, lest the regent be unhappy, and his life will not be guaranteed.

"Throw it out." Gu Yichen said these three words coldly.

The weather outside was sunny and beautiful, and the streets were full of traffic, and then the people saw a few people in palace clothes, who crossed a graceful arc from the sky above the Regent's Palace, and slammed into the door.

After Father-in-law Xia was thrown out in the dark, they didn't dare to complain, but ran away as if they were running for their lives.

The emperor gave the regent a marriage again, this time it was Liu Ruyan, the daughter of the side branch of the Liu family, whose identity was more noble than Wang Ruolan, and her appearance was also gentle and petty, but she broke her leg when she was a child and was not good at walking.

The emperor felt that being able to give him a close-in-law, good-looking woman was already the biggest bottom line, and he Gu Yichen should be grateful for Dade's acceptance.

Because of the time when Father-in-law Xia was thrown out, the people of Yuancheng also knew about the marriage, but they didn't know which lady it was.

But they soon learned that Liu Ruyan's father was an alcoholic, and he usually relied on Liu Yuanqing's help to barely survive, and a few days ago he went to gamble and lost a lot of silver, and the people in the gambling house knocked on the door, so he had no choice but to ask Liu Yuanqing again.

It just so happened that the emperor asked Liu Yuanqing to contribute a Liu family woman to come out and marry the regent, of course he was reluctant to let his baby daughter go.

So when his cousin came to beg him, he happily gave a large sum of money, paid off the arrears, and the remaining money was enough for him to live the rest of his life without worrying about food and clothing, on the condition that he marry his daughter Liu Ruyan to the regent.

The emperor just said that Liu Yuanqing would contribute a woman from the Liu family, but he didn't say whose daughter it was, this Liu Ruyan is also a woman from the Liu family, and it is appropriate for her to marry the regent.

Liu Ruyan's father didn't know about these officialdoms, twists and turns, so he took the money and left happily, hearing that the emperor really gave him a marriage, he felt that his ancestral tomb was going to smoke, and he hyped up the regent in the city as his son-in-law, and in less than half a day, the people in the city knew that Liu Ruyan was going to marry the regent.

There was a lot of upheaval outside, Bai Xiyue hadn't heard anything in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and only studied Gu Yichen's antidote, if she could detoxify him, it would be regarded as making one more friend, which was not a bad thing for Bai Xiyue, maybe after she left, Gu Yichen would still be able to take care of the White Mansion.

No matter what happened outside, she still had a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Bai Xiyue, who was washing, received the latest gossip brought by Bai Tao.

"Miss, big news, big news. The emperor gave the regent a marriage yesterday, this time it was the girl of the Liu family, what is it called, Liu, Liu Ruyan, yes, his father was still talking about the book yesterday, and he said that his daughter was going to be the princess regent, as a result, guess what happened today. ”

Bai Tao stopped halfway through speaking, and looked at Bai Xiyue with a quick look on her face, and looked at Bai Xiyue with a quick expression.

"What's wrong today?"

She didn't need her to say that Bai Xiyue could guess what happened next, but looking at Bai Tao's sparkling eyes, she could only cooperate with her performance.

"Today Liu Ruyan's house caught fire, their family all lost their lives, I heard that the windows were not closed at night, last night the wind was strong, blowing down the candles, and then the fire started, the strange thing is that no one found out last night, everyone only found out this morning, miss, you say strange is not strange."

There is nothing strange about Bai Xiyue, thinking with her toes, she can guess who made the move, and think about it, how can someone like Gu Yichen accept the marriage given by the emperor, but she took pity on that girl.

"Miss, do you say that this regent is not a wife, why does anyone who gives him death, which is a marriage, this is simply a death."

Bai Tao has already made up the scene of the regent's lonely life, which is called a pitiful.

"It can also be said to be a wife." Bai Xiyue quite agreed with Bai Tao's words.

"It doesn't matter if he gives his wife, as long as the emperor doesn't give you Miss to the regent."

"Ahem, ahem! Don't curse me. Bai Xiyue choked on a mouthful of water, coughed violently, and gave marriage to Gu Yichen, I'm afraid that the next one to be burned will be Baifu.

After these two incidents, the people of Yuancheng, who don't know the inside story, feel that the regent Ke's wife is probably going to die alone, and even if the emperor gives him a marriage, he can't marry a daughter-in-law.

The emperor not only did not stop, but became more and more courageous, and immediately wrote the third holy decree, he did not believe that Gu Yichen could kill all the women he married.

Father-in-law Xia was just about to go out with the holy decree, but he was stopped by Gu Jiuxiao.

Gu Jiuxiao came today to prevent the emperor from giving marriage, otherwise there would be no way to implement his plan.

He took the holy decree back, and persuaded the emperor, Gonggong Xia immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and if he went to the regent palace again, he was afraid that he would have to lie down and come out.

Although Gu Jiuxiao stopped him from giving marriage again, the news still spread out, and the matter was full of trouble, two people had already died, and the emperor still insisted on giving marriage.

Even ordinary people noticed that something was wrong, and gradually there were rumors that the emperor saw that some families were not pleasing to the eye, and deliberately used the matter of the regent's wife to vent his anger, and it only took half a day, and it was rumored that there were noses and eyes in the city.

Bai Xiyue heard these rumors and had to admire the power of public opinion, these people can make up a story out of thin air when they hear the wind is rain.

However, the emperor was indeed a little too anxious about this, which made things develop in an uncontrollable direction.

Although she knew that this was the emperor's conspiracy, Bai Xiyue couldn't do anything, and in this era of supremacy of power, she could only try her best to protect Bai Mansion.

Maybe it's because there are many things in the city, some idlers have nothing to do on weekdays, and they always have to find something to pass the boring time, and they don't have so many entertainment items like modern people, so they can only get together and chat.

Most people don't dare to say the regent openly, he is not a benevolent lord, and if he offends him with a word, he may not see the sun of tomorrow.

But the emperor is different, discussing political history and state affairs is not too much.

The rumors in the city became more and more uncontrollable, and some unwitting ministers of the family walked on thin ice every day, for fear that the emperor would be unhappy and marry their daughters to the regent.

Many ministers in the palace were responding to this situation, and the folds handed over were also hinting at the marriage, not only did not humiliate the regent, but also ruined his reputation, and the emperor was angry and angry, and he had not been to the court for several days on the grounds of illness.
