Chapter 957: Things Are Not as Simple as Imagined
Bai Heran's question made the Lin family choked with joy, and he hid his mouth and giggled for a while before saying, "Naturally, I have already dressed up and entered the palace." Thanks to the blessing of the second young lady, our third young lady also received a post to enter the palace to attend the banquet, which was sent by the people of King Ling's mansion. ”
Lin was very happy when she talked about this, she was not optimistic about the matter between her daughter and the fifth prince, because her daughter was a concubine. But then Bai Yanyu slowly got closer to Bai Heran, and she began to look forward to it again, even if she knew that Bai Heran did not approve of this family business, she still had some hope in her heart.
At noon today, the people from King Ling's Mansion sent a post over, and the roll call was for the third lady of the Bai family, and Bai Yanyu's name was written on it. Lin's originally half-cool heart suddenly ignited hope again, and she felt that the Fifth Highness was also interesting to her daughter.
Lin's words made Bai Heran obviously stunned for a moment, and he paused as he got out of the carriage. Hong's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw that something was wrong, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took the opportunity to support her and asked in a low voice: "Ah Ran, what happened?" ”
Bai Heran shook his head slightly, "How long have they been in the palace?" ”
Hong said: "I've been walking for more than half an hour, and I should have arrived at the palace by this time." What's wrong Ah Ran, is there any problem? ”
She still shook her head, not because she didn't want to say it, but because she didn't know how to say it. You can't just tell Bai Xingyan and Concubine Li Xian's dirty things, not to mention that even if she can say it, everything is just her conjecture, and it's not certain that something is really going to happen.
"People are still locked up in the Sycamore Garden, right? I'll take a look. She didn't let go of Hong, but instead tightened Hong's hand and said softly, "Aunt Hong, don't go far, I have something to tell you in a while." After speaking, he let go of Hong's hand and walked quickly towards the Sycamore Garden.
Both the Hong and Lin families looked stupid, originally today was Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone was happy, and the Hong family was also kind and made a new set of clothes for the Li family and the Shao family in the mansion. She is not short of money, so she just wants to look festive.
Originally, I thought that it would be better for Bai Heran to go back to the house first, so they greeted them at the door, and if they didn't see anyone coming by the time they arrived, they would go directly to the palace. It's nothing, I've seen it yesterday anyway, and I've said everything I need to say, so it's not too much of a pity.
Who knew that Bai Heran returned to the Guogong Mansion first as they wished, and the Hong family originally carried a large amount of silver tickets in their sleeve pockets, wanting to make her New Year's money. As a result, the silver ticket was not given out at all, and Bai Heran's mood didn't look like he was going to celebrate the New Year at all, so much like something was going to happen.
Lin's heart didn't fall to the ground, and he asked the Hong family with a slight tremble: "Did I just say that Yan Yu entered the palace, which made the second lady unhappy?" You know, the second young lady has always disagreed with Yan Yu and thinks about the Fifth Highness, will she be angry because of this? ”
Hong shook his head, "I don't know, but I don't think it's because of this." Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Fifth went to the Princess's Mansion, and I saw that the third lady also talked to the Fifth Highness, and the second miss didn't say anything? Don't think about it, it's definitely not Miss San's business. "Actually, Hong's hope is because of this matter, because this is a trivial matter, a family matter, but if there are other ......
Bai Heran walked all the way to the Wutong Garden, and Qi Huang and Mo Yu followed behind.
The Wenguo Mansion is not new to Moyu, but it can be a little depressing for Qi Huang.
Fortunately, in addition to the maid in the house, there was no one else to disturb along the way, and when she finally arrived at the gate of Wutong Garden, she asked silently: "What kind of courtyard does this live in?" ”
Mo Yu told her: "It's Wen Guogong's study, Wen Guogong is the owner of this Guogong Mansion, our young lady's father." ”
Qi Huang nodded, understood, and at the same time remembered what Ji Bo told them about the princess after being selected into the princess's mansion.
It is said that Princess Tianci is not close to her biological father, not only is she not close, but the relationship is particularly bad. Wen Guogong did not raise this daughter since he was a child, abused him for more than ten years, and sent him to live with relatives in Los Angeles for three years. Princess Tianci has suffered a lot since she was a child, and it was all given to her by this father. This situation continued until the princess returned from Los Angeles, and everything changed.
But the change is not that Wen Guogong has changed, Wen Guogong is still that virtue, and what has changed is the princess of God.
Since they are not father and daughter who have a good relationship, why did they come to see him as soon as they came back from Tianci Town? Qi Huang thought in his heart, could it be that his own lady still cares about his family affection for this father, and he should come and see it after the New Year.
Mo Yu glanced at Qi Huang, and could more or less guess what Qi Huang thought, and couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart.
Hakuzuru's footsteps stopped at the entrance of the Wutong Garden, and she told Qi Huang: "You are here to guard, and no one is allowed to enter until I come out." Do you understand? ”
Qi Huang nodded immediately, "Don't worry, Miss, the slave understands." ”
Bai Heran didn't say anything, and walked quickly into the Wutong Garden with a silent voice, and bypassed the small garden through the corridor, and soon Qihuang couldn't see them.
Wutong Garden is guarded by subordinates, but it is no longer a slave reused by Bai Xingyan, but a person rearranged by the housekeeper Bai Shun.
After the White Crane was sent to Tianci Town, the Hong clan also rectified the Guogong Mansion and replaced many useless minions, but did not add new people. There are not so many masters in the house, so what do you need so many slaves for?
There was no sound of slapping wooden boards in the study, so he walked forward silently, stood down by the window, stood for a while, and then turned back and said, "Grandpa Guo's condition does not seem to be very good, and the slave can hear his breathing, which is very weak. Master, do you want to open the door and go in and have a look? If the Guogong Mansion really fails, the government should also prepare for the funeral. But the slave thinks that the funeral in the first month is not good, and it is really not good, Miss, you will drag him again, and don't worry about it after dragging it out of the first month! ”
Bai Heran really can't let this father die like this, but the reason has nothing to do with whether or not the New Year is a funeral.
What she thought was that Bai Xingyan was a person with a big crime, although he wanted to die, but he must not die in her hands, but to keep this life for the emperor. This revenge can only be avenged by the emperor himself, otherwise it will be a punch on the cotton and hold his breath.
"Open the door!" She commanded, "I'll go and show him, I can't let people die like this." ”
Without saying a word, he stepped forward and broke the wooden plank on the door. As for the locks that fell, they didn't need a key at all, so they just used the sword they carried with them to cut them, and they cut off all the big locks in a few clicks.
The people inside heard the movement and made a "ahhhh
The door was kicked open by a silent kick, and as soon as he kicked it open, he jumped back to Bai Heran's side, and then pulled Bai Heran to the side.
Soon, a sour smell mixed with musty wafted out of the door, and even though the two of them had already avoided the distance, they could still smell the smell. The silence was disgusting, covering his nose with his hand, and at the same time signaling the white crane to cover it a little.
But before Bai Heran could raise his sleeves, he felt that the figure in front of him flickered, and the sword shadow appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of him. "Master, are you back? It seems that something has changed in Kyosato. ”
"Huh?" Bai Heran chuckled in his heart, and that bad premonition became strong again. "What's going on?"
Jian Ying replied: "Last night, His Royal Highness Ten returned to Shangdu City from Tianci Town, and he was called into the palace when he arrived at the gate of the Zun Wang's Mansion. Soon after entering the palace, he came out again, and then left Beijing in a hurry, leaving the ...... The direction of Luo Ye. ”
"Luo Ye?" Bai Heran's mind was thinking quickly, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what his bad premonition had to do with Luo Ye. But why did Jun Murin suddenly leave Beijing in the middle of the night and go in that direction? If you didn't go to Luo Ye, where would you be going?
She took a step forward and walked into Bai Xingyan's study.
The unpleasant smell was even stronger, but she didn't have the heart to care about the taste, she just walked a few steps forward, until she walked to the inner room of the study, and stood next to Bai Xingyan's bed.
Wen Guogong in front of him has completely lost his appearance, and the whole person looks like an old man of sixty or seventy years old, not only his skin is loose and full of wrinkles, but even his hair has turned gray, and the whole person is sluggish, and he is already out of breath and less in breath.
Jian Ying said: "I have reminded Yingchun not to toss and soak him in water anymore, for fear that he will accidentally soak him to death." It's just that I didn't expect this Wen Guogong to be so tormented, and it has become like this in just a few days. ”
Bai Heran actually doesn't care what this father is, as long as there is still a breath in her, she can heal people.
She was just thinking about whether her feelings were accurate or not, and if not, then everything was easy to say, and it would be good if nothing had happened. But as soon as she was right, she had to make an arrangement at once.
Now it seems that once the matter is indeed as she guessed, it was the incident back then and the life history of the five princes that were found out by the emperor, then it was necessary to pay for a Bai Xingyan, and she would not have the slightest pity for this nominal father.
Not to mention that he is not a father at all, even if he is a father, he has to have the courage to resist the wrong things he does.
But what she is worried about is that the emperor can be willing to settle only Bai Xingyan's account?
This must be a big crime of the Zhuxin clan, she originally wanted to delay this matter a little longer, give her more time, and let her contribution to the Eastern Qin Imperial Court be greater, so that she can get more right to speak, and she can have more chips to keep the people she wants to keep.
When she was in the princess's mansion, she was still thinking about how bad this matter could be, who could be saved, whether the Nine Emperor Princes could keep Bai Zhenzhen and the Hong family and Bai Haoxuan, the third uncle could keep the old lady, Jun Lingxi could keep the red forget, and then the remaining Lin family and Bai Yanyu, she had Jun Murin's help, plus herself, she should be able to protect it.
But now, things don't seem to be as simple as she imagined. Because, Jun Mulin left Beijing......
