Chapter 78: The birthday gift of the Ninth Highness and the Ten Highnesses

There is a law in the Eastern Qin Dynasty, a man who dies and divorces can be renewed, and he can also set up a flat wife before he dies, but the sons and daughters born to the wife only respect the wife as the mother, and the person who continues the string does not need to be commensurate with the mother.

But when the Ye family entered the door, in order to show dignity and show the Bai family's attention to the Ye family, Bai Xingyan asked Bai Heran to call the Ye family his mother at that time.

Although there are rules, after all, they are people in their own families, and some families have good relationships, and their children are happy to call them, and no one will use them to talk about things. Not to mention it, if it is really investigated, it will be a real headache.

Jun Muchu looked at Bai Xingyan, sneered in his heart, and then looked at Ye, who was so angry that his face turned pale, he felt that his brother's play was arranged wonderfully. So he waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "Come on, bring in all the birthday gifts that this king gave to the Bai family's housewife!" Someone immediately responded outside the door, and immediately after, countless palace guards began to carry things into the mansion, and a eunuch sang loudly at the door - "Nine Highnesses and Ten Highnesses congratulate the mother of the head of the Wenguo Mansion on her birthday!" Give Mrs. Bai a paper sedan chair, fifteen paper horses, nine paper maids, nine paper guards, seventeen paper turtles, nine pairs of candles, three peach, three longevity screens, two pairs of couplets, fifteen altars of wine, a painting of Fulu Shouxi, a bowl of longevity noodles in the imperial dining room, a table for the banquet in the imperial dining room, nineteen boxes of various ornaments, and thirty-five sets of four seasons of clothing! In addition, the Ten Highnesses have special imperial treasures

The monks of the temple chanted and prayed for Mrs. Bai, seven seven and forty-nine days! ”

As the eunuch's salute ended, all the things outside the door were brought in. Because it is a ritual of worship, most of them are made of paper, and even if there is a box on the outside, the box is tied with white cloth and flowers. Non-paper items are mainly in white tones, such as white candles and wine in white porcelain jars. In particular, the paper sedan chair is exactly the same as a normal sedan chair

size, and two paper figures as tall and strong as real people are placed in front and back, which is simply lifelike.

There are too many things sent by the two princes, and this lift directly flushes the joy of the front yard to the point that there is nothing left, even if there are many red lanterns hanging in the yard, it is not as impactful as those big white flowers and white cloths at the moment.

The white crane's eyes began to shine, talent!

Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh: "Domineering! ”

The old lady, as well as the Hong clan and Xiao Ye who arrived later, were already stupid, and everyone present was stupid.

Ye was so angry that he collapsed to the ground, crying whining. Bai Jinghong didn't know what to do, so he could only turn his eyes to the second prince for help, and his touching appearance made the second prince feel distressed. But what could he do? If it was Lao Shilai, he would dare to say a few more good words to persuade him, but now it was Lao Jiu who was sitting next to him, and he didn't dare to say a word in the face of this ninth brother. In case the other party is annoyed by talking too much, I am afraid that this tone will be even more on the Bai family. he

I never believe that a huge Wenguo Mansion will be clean, and when the time comes, just check it casually, it is the Bai family who is unlucky, and even the Ye family has to follow to eat melons.

Seeing that the second prince didn't squeak and lowered his head silently, Bai Jinghong knew that the cowardly lame man had no hope. So she didn't ask anymore, just cried with Ye's family, crying so pitifully, tears hanging on her face, almost making the men present couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

But the distress is distressed, but no one dares to care. The eldest prince clearly muddied the waters, and he had already sat down to drink tea beside the Nine Emperor Princes. The Six Emperors also chose not to participate, and sat down next to the eldest prince, ready to watch the play.

When Jiang Yue opened his mouth again, he said: "Your Highness the Nine, look, the slave is not mistaken, this is the longevity, no, the second lady and the eldest lady of the Bai family have begun to cry and mourn." ”

Poof!

Some people couldn't hold back their laughter and laughed out loud. Looking at Ye Shi again, he rolled his eyes in anger, looking like he was about to lose his life. Bai Xingyan was even more devastated, now he said that it was nothing, Jiang Yue had already deducted the guilty hat from him, and if he said one more thing, it would be a big crime to violate the laws of the Eastern Qin Dynasty. But he is the head of the family, if he doesn't speak at this time, how can he raise his head and behave in front of his colleagues in the future? No

Got to be laughed at to death?

Just thinking about it, suddenly, Bai Heran spoke-"The courtiers thank the two highnesses for thinking about their mothers, but your highnesses are really mistaken, today is not the longevity of the courtiers' mothers, but the happy life of the current housewife." "Oh?" The Nine Emperor Princes were not surprised at all, "Then tell me, why is it not your biological mother's birthday, but also to tell Jiang Yue that it is your mother's birthday banquet?" Although it is a question sentence, it is no different from the usual tone of chatter. He didn't bother to hide it at all, but it was like telling everyone, Ben

The king knows everything, but he deliberately disgusts the Bai family, what can you do with this king? Bai Heran also learned his tone, and said calmly and calmly: "Because I lost my mother when I was a minister's daughter, and after my father married a flat wife, I asked the courtiers to call the wife of the continuation of the string as their mother, because the other party is the niece of the queen mother, as long as I call my mother, I can show her dignity." As she spoke, she glanced at the Ye family's mother and daughter again, then thought about it, and wiped her eyes a few times, and then, her voice choked, "The courtiers are soft-spoken, and they don't want to cause trouble for the family, our Bai family has nothing but a hereditary title,

can't afford to provoke the new lady and the queen mother. Therefore, the courtiers could only obey their father's words, give up the self-esteem of the concubine, and call the new lady her mother. ”

Although she was wiping her tears, except for her choked voice, her tears really couldn't flow, and she looked a little fake.

Bai Zhenzhen couldn't stand it anymore, so she leaned closer and whispered: "Pretend to be more like." ”

Bai Heran was also helpless: "Not very good!" ”

"How can you squeeze two tears! It can't be dry, thunder doesn't rain. ”

"That's right." She squeezed her eyes hard, but unfortunately she still didn't squeeze them out. Jun Muchu looked at the two girls opposite, and the small movement like a mosquito screamed to his ears word for word, and His Royal Highness the Cold-faced Yama King Jiu suddenly had the urge to laugh, but he still suppressed it. But a doubt turned a few times in my heart: the two daughters of the Bai family should not be born

It's funny, right? However, he knew very well what he was doing today, and he always remembered the task assigned to him by Lao Shi, and now that Bai Heran handed over the words, he naturally had to go down the nag. So Jun Muchu opened his mouth again and asked Bai Xingyan directly: "In the eyes of your Bai family, the niece of the Queen Mother."

More important than the laws of the Eastern Qin? ”

Jiang Yue also added: "This crime of flouting the laws of the Eastern Qin Dynasty is not light!" ”

Bai Xingyan knelt on the ground and trembled all over, as if shaking a sieve, shaking his head vigorously: "No, no, the minister never meant that." The laws of the Eastern Qin Dynasty are greater than the heavens in the hearts of the ministers, and the ministers dare not be disrespectful to anything, let alone despise it! ”

"Then you are going to tell this king, why do you insist on asking your concubine to call your wife her mother?" Bai Xingyan's mouth moved, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. He knew in his heart that he had fallen into the trap set by Bai Heran, but when did Bai Heran join forces with His Royal Highness the Nine? Hasn't she been rejecting the Divine Decree? How God doesn't know it,

How can he cooperate so tacitly with such a Hades-like existence like His Highness the Nine? He couldn't figure it out, and he had nowhere to argue. But at this moment, a voice in the crowd suddenly raised up and said something for him - "Many houses are like this, not only our family. Your Highness can inquire, and if you really want to investigate, it shouldn't be just us

Unlucky. ”

Everyone was stunned by the voice, and the people searched for prestige, and finally their eyes fell on a little girl.

The corners of Hakuzuru's lips were hooked, and he could barely hold back a smile. Just Bai Huayan, Bai Huayan, if the Nine Emperor Princes only stabbed Bai Xingyan before, then Bai Huayan's words were undoubtedly a handful of salt sprinkled on her father's wounds.

The person who spoke was a brainless Bai Huayan, and in the face of people's eyes that seemed to be stupid or almost wanted to eat her, she didn't feel that she was wrong at all, and even thought that she was the big hero of the Bai family. She raised her chest and looked up at Bai Xingyan, full of gestures of invitation.

Bai Xingyan was about to cry, and the breath that he had been holding for a long time finally broke out at this time, and he heard him shout with all his strength: "Beast! You shut up Lao Tzu! Shut up!! ”

Bai Huayan was stupid, her mouth was wide open, but she couldn't say a word.

However, if she can't say it, others can. For a while, I heard accusations from all directions - "What do you mean by Miss Bai?" We came to celebrate our birthday with good intentions, but you were so framed? ”

"That's it! What does it mean that your family can't be unlucky? Who else do you want to make bad luck? ”

"Grandpa Guo, we are officials in the same dynasty, is there anything disrespectful to you on weekdays? To let you be framed like this behind closed doors? ”

"The Bai family is going to serve us in a pot? The viciousness of the heart is really worse than the snake and scorpion, and the tiger and wolf! ”

"His Highness the Nine!" Countless courtiers knelt down, "Please Your Highness the Ninth Mingjian, such a matter of not obeying the laws of the Eastern Qin, the ministers dare not agree, please Your Highness the Ninth Mingjian!" ”

Seeing that Bai Xingyan became the target of everyone, the old lady who had been watching from the sidelines finally couldn't stand it anymore. She can watch her son suffer and be punished because of Ye's affairs, and he should be punished. But now that she is collectively excluded by all the courtiers, the meaning is different, and she must find a way to reverse it. So she opened her mouth and shouted: "Ye, this is the child you raised?" Back then, you insisted on taking your newborn child to your side to raise her, just to raise her into the way she is now, brainless and unruly, and still talking nonsense? Ye's, my Bai family thinks that you are the niece of the Queen Mother, and I have always treated you as a guest, and I am afraid of you and I am afraid of you, so as not to make you unhappy and move out of the Queen Mother to pressure us, he has to let his hard-working wife leave behind the daughter of the righteous son also call you mother. But what about you? How you reciprocate

My white family? What kind of heart do you have? She was so angry that she trembled, and after scolding Ye, she scolded her son again: "Xingyan, you can also say something!" Ye's she instigated your ten-year-old little daughter to talk nonsense, you ask her what she wants to do? ”
