Chapter 135: Shi Chong Advises Wine
"You ...... first Let go. β
Bai Ling leaned down and broke Bi Tao's hand.
The little palace maid's hand had so much strength, and the knuckles that grabbed the hem of Bai Ling's clothes turned white because of the force. If it weren't for the treasure duck on the side who scolded again, this palace maid was afraid that even Bai Ling's clothes would have tore off.
Bai Ling took a step back and stood there, looking at Bi Tao with a deep gaze, his expression more serious than ever.
"Have you asked the emperor about this?" "Does he have a will?" β
"Your Majesty ......?" Bi Tao blinked, and looked up at Bai Ling with some innocent eyes, "...... Should it be, should it not? I haven't heard my mother talk about it. β
Bai Ling nodded, "Okay, go back and tell your master, I won't go." β
Bi Tao's teeth trembled, and all the tears in her eyes welled up, and then she rushed forward, "Bai Si Yao!" Pleaseβ"
"Let go." Bai Ling whispered, "Otherwise, I'll call someone." β
Even Bao Yuan was stunned when she said this, this was originally the result of her hope - Bai Ling had better make up her mind not to be deceived by Lin Jieyu's rhetoric.
But when she found that the person who came seemed to be really a poor person, the compassion in her heart could not help but sting.
Bao Yuan looked at Bai Ling, and suddenly felt that if Bai Ling also softened his heart at this time and wanted to change his words, maybe he was not really so firm.
Maybe they will turn a blind eye, after all, it is not a big deal to occasionally borrow people between the harem concubines.
Niangniang said, "It all depends on what Bai Ling wants to do, then it's up to her", it can be seen that she doesn't care about this, not to mention that this girl also said that Lin Jieyu does not ask Bai Ling to go alone, she can be accompanied by someone - in that case, there is no problem with reason, with others here, presumably Lin Jieyu can't play any tricks.
Bai Ling seemed to be completely unaware of the changes in the Bao Yuan beside her, she smiled slightly, and continued, "I talked about it when I was chatting with Sister Bao Yuan yesterday, and the emperor gave me a will before I entered the Chengqian Palace, and I don't care about anything else except for the palace affairs of the Chengqian Palace. If Lin Jieyu doesn't know that there is such a purpose, then please go back and tell her. β
"This, this ......"
Bai Ling didn't finish speaking, and Bi Tao had already kowtowed.
Each of her knocks was so hard that the girl's forehead hit the stone bricks on the ground with a dull sound, and her head bled out after a few bumps.
"Cypress medicine...... You have a good heart, please, please, please......"
Bi Tao is too young, and the time she has been in the palace for a short time, and she has seen and heard too few things, so she doesn't know what to say at this time, so she has to beg over and over again.
Although almost all the onlookers here had sneered at her just a moment ago, it was really sad to see this situation.
Zheng Shu squinted her eyes and stood not far away, silently watching this scene.
If it weren't for the fact that she was Qu's eyes at the moment, and got the will of Niangniang "don't act rashly, see what is happening outside clearly and then tell me", she would have rushed forward at this moment and grabbed this peach slap.
Zheng Shu pinched a handful of sweat, on the one hand, she was annoyed that Bao Yuan was so soft-hearted, so she let this little girl mess around in Chengqian Palace, and on the other hand, she secretly wondered for Bai Ling's coldness at the moment - if there is anyone who can be unmoved when encountering such a situation, it can really only be described as iron-hearted.
Zheng Shu touched her heart, she was already a weathered old bone, and it was not unusual for her heart to be as cold as iron.
But at Bai Ling's age, how could she have such concentration, unless her heart was born made of stone...... But I don't feel like getting along on weekdays.
"You are the palace maid of Chuxiu Palace."
Bai Ling's face had completely cooled, and this expression was an indifference that everyone had rarely seen.
"How your master punishes you is none of her business. You shouldn't be kowtowing to me, you should be kowtowing to her. β
"ButγBut I ......"
"Get her out." Bai Ling had already turned around and turned back towards the east side hall.
Bao Yuan looked at Bi Tao who seemed to be stupid on the ground with pity, lowered his voice slightly, and said to the eunuch on the side, "Didn't you hear Si Yao's instructions, let her go......"
Bi Tao, who was dragged out, didn't shout, she didn't scream, she seemed to have been scattered in an instant, her whole face was as white as paper, and hot tears were dripping silently.
Everyone seemed to wake up from a dream, and each returned to their places in some shock.
Most of these people are newcomers who were exchanged not long ago, and their impression of Bai Ling is still only to the extent that this girl always has to take a bath at night, but today's crisp and neat decision made everyone feel a little strange in their hearts - they never thought that this koi would bite people.
β¦β¦
Zheng Shu stood outside the door of the east side hall, thinking that she still had to go into the house to ask about what happened just now, she walked into the room briskly, and saw that Bai Ling was cleaning up the bed that had not had time to make up just now, and Bao Yuan turned his back to her and spoke to Bai Ling.
"Does it really matter?" Bao Yuan asked softly in the room.
Zheng Shu glanced at Bao Yuan and Bai Ling, neither of them seemed to find themselves in the house, she thought about it, and simply stood there and listened to the conversation between the two without saying a word.
"I've cursed in front of Sister Baoyuan." Bai Ling's eyes widened, "Do you want to see me take an oath?" β
"Phew!" Bao Yuan hurriedly slapped his mouth, "I didn't say that, I just think, well, ......"
It was one thing to be cruel to that girl like this, and when the broken mouths of the palace people shouted, and bad words were spread with oil and vinegar, it was another.
Bai Ling turned his back, "Sister Baoyuan, has you heard the story of Shi Chong's persuasion of wine?" β
"Who advises drinking?" Bao Yuan was confused.
"Shi Chong's persuasion of wine is a story in "The World Speaks New Words"," Bai Ling sighed and said softly, "It means that the big merchant Shi Chong has a bunch of beautiful concubines at home, and whenever guests come to the house to drink, let these beautiful concubines persuade them to drink." If any of the guests did not finish their wine, Shi Chong would behead and kill the beautiful woman who persuaded him to drink on the spot. β
ββ¦β¦ And this kind of thing," Bao Yuan shook his head, "It's too cruel. β
"Hmm." Bai Ling leaned over and folded the quilt, and continued, "The guests naturally don't want to see the beauty die because they refuse to drink, so they drink as much as they want every time. Until one day, the prime minister of the dynasty and the general went to his house to drink together, and the prime minister heard about it, although he was not strong enough to drink, he was still barely drunk, and the general refused to drink from beginning to end, and Shi Chong did not change his face even after beheading three people. β
Bao Yuan's throat tightened as he listened.
Bai Ling folded the thin quilt and patted it vigorously, without looking back, "Looking at your unprepared reaction today, I guess this should be the first time Lin Jieyu has used this method to test." I took a hard-working palace maid as bait, and used my pity and the accusations of others against my 'cruel' behavior to coerce me into submission......
"Then I can't even say yes." Bai Ling turned around and faced Bao Yuan, his voice firm and crisp, "If Shi Chong met the general who did not change his face at the first banquet, and everyone could be as uncompromising as the general who did not change his face, then Shi Chong would give up using this way to persuade wine."
"Besides, if I go to Chuxiu Palace today because of sympathy for Bi Tao, who can guarantee that Lin Jieyu will not repeat her old tricks tomorrow? Should I be arrested as long as she pushes a man to me and says that if I don't obey her, I will die because of me? β
Bai Ling threw out the question, and then looked straight at the treasure duck.
