Chapter 150: The Black Tower of Barado
Gu Zhi has been an emperor for so many years, and his efficiency is very fast, he was only deliberately ignored and indulged before, but now he is decisive, causing another shock in the capital.
In a remote courtyard in the capital, Bai Xiaolian seriously applied medicine to her neck in the mirror, and the more she looked at the whip marks on it, the more distressed she became, and she slammed her fist on the dresser.
"If I am disfigured, I will fight for my life to make Su Xiu'er look good."
Mrs. Bai looked at her daughter with some distress, clapped her hands and was very resentful.
"I have long heard that the young lady of Anguo Mansion is rude and willful, isn't it just that she was born noble, Xiaolian, don't worry, your aunt is the eldest princess, I will go to the princess's mansion later, and ask her to be the master for you, I have to give the Su family girl a crime."
Bai Xiaolian touched the scar on her neck, and the pear blossoms brought rain.
"Duke An Guo is an important minister relied on by the emperor, and Su Xiu'er is the concubine of Duke Anguo, the eldest princess, what can I do with him?"
Not to mention Princess Changning.
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Bai Xiaolian's eyes, and she only hoped that those officials in the previous dynasty would work harder, and it would be better to abolish her title and be ridiculed for the rest of her life.
"Madame, Mademoiselle, the angel has arrived outside."
How could the emperor send someone to their mansion?
Mrs. Bai glanced at Bai Xiaolian, and an ominous feeling rose in her heart.
The whole house hurried out to greet him.
Xiao Quanzi received this errand from his master, and stood in the middle of the courtyard with great momentum, looking at the chaos in the Baifu, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
From the upbringing of the subordinates, you can see the rules of the house, and where there are no rules in the Bai Mansion, it is no wonder that Bai Xiaolian can be taught to be an unfaithful and unrighteous daughter.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Xiao Quanzi coughed, and slowly passed the emperor's dictation, his voice was shrill.
"The emperor said that Bai Xiaolian, a woman in the Bai family, was frail and sickly, and she was unintentionally injured in the ice frolic field, so she was specially given a bottle of Shu and Jiao, and she was here!"
Ordered the people below to bring a bottle of Shuhe gum on a tray, covered with a red cloth.
The thing that the emperor rewarded was a gift, and Mrs. Bai was quite flattered, and then secretly stuffed a purse into Xiao Quanzi's hand.
"May I ask my father-in-law, why did the emperor suddenly reward my little daughter?"
Is it to apologize for the princess?
Xiao Quanzi glanced at Madam Bai, he had passed on a lot of decrees in the palace for so many years, and he had never seen such a stupid sect woman.
Secretly reversed the weight of the silver, refused to accept it, and retreated.
"Miss Bai has no intention of being injured, the third princess is kind, and specially mentioned to the emperor, this thing is unique to the palace, the effect is excellent, and it will definitely not leave a scar, Mrs. should thank the emperor and the third princess for their kindness."
Isn't my daughter's injury caused by the third princess, and I have to thank her?
Madame Bai frowned a little suspiciously, looking at Xiao Quanzi's expression becoming more and more impatient, and she couldn't care about much, so she nodded hurriedly.
"Yes, thank you to the emperor and the third princess."
Sending Xiao Quanzi away, looking at the Shuhe glue covered with a red cloth, Mrs. Bai was a little puzzled.
"What does the emperor mean? Even specially rewarded Shuhe glue? ”
Shuhe gum is a secret medicine in the palace, only concubines above the concubine can take it at will, and it has a miraculous effect on removing scars and wound healing.
With this, you don't have to worry about leaving a scar on your neck.
Madame Bai had an idea, "Unintentionally injured?" ”
Your Majesty, this is a reward for them, let them shut up!
Bai Xiaoling obviously thought of this as well, pursed her mouth, very unwilling.
"Is that all the whipping I received?"
But the emperor has made his mind clear, he wants to defend the third princess and work against the emperor, what good end can he have?
"Isn't there anyone in the court who is impeaching her? The emperor still defended the third princess like this, ignoring the thoughts of all the officials? ”
When the old man of the Bai family heard the news that a holy decree had come to their house, he immediately rushed back, but it was still too late.
After listening to the words relayed by the entourage, his face turned pale, and he looked at Bai Xiaolian angrily.
A slap was slapped.
"Daddy!"
Bai Xiaolian covered her face, tears flowed down her face, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Dad, why did you hit me?"
Flicked his sleeves, Old Man Bai snorted coldly.
"I have known for a long time that you are a stupid person, and I am still restless by the side of Princess Changning, and now that I have made a holy decree, my future has been ruined by you."
The lady called out anxiously. "What do you mean, sir? I let Xiaolian enter the palace for the future of our family! I went to talk to my brother and asked him to contact an official he knew well to impeach the third princess. ”
Idiot.
Master Bai regretted it very much, when he looked at her noble family background, he thought that he could help him, but he didn't expect to be such a fool.
"If you don't want your brother's career to end here, you'd better keep your mouth shut, the emperor was furious in the court today, and many officials were defeated.
Remember, Xiaolian has been frail and sickly since she was a child, and this time she was only injured unintentionally, and it has nothing to do with others! ”
Frail and sickly since childhood? If this reputation is spread, how can Xiaolian still get married...
Where do ordinary people dare to ask for her?
Sometimes a faint sentence from the superior can give people a big blow, especially if it is the emperor who says this.
The upward and downward effects, if it is really passed out, even if Bai Xiaolian is not frail and sickly, she will become frail and sickly.
Mrs. Bai finally got her IQ online and grabbed Master Bai's hand.
"Master, you can't be so ruthless, we only have this one daughter!"
"Humph! Thinking about this daughter, why don't you want to think about our son's spring this year, his decades of hard study, is it going to be ruined because of Bai Xiaolian's ignorance?
If Baifu's upbringing is questioned, it will be both prosperous and lossy, and the reputation of other daughters will also be ruined. ”
Hearing the son she cared about, Mrs. Bai retreated a little, she didn't care about the daughters of those little sluts, but her son was the meat of her heart.
Bai Xiaolian clutched her chest because of this series of blows, and she was shaking, and Master Bai snorted coldly, without pity in her eyes.
It's also that he is usually busy with affairs, and he didn't care about this daughter, but he developed this kind of temperament, which almost affected the whole family.
It is a taboo to change teams without permission, let alone when the third princess was impeached...... Such a reputation of disloyalty and injustice spread, and no particular person dared to ask for her.
The emperor also gave them a way out, and they only needed to give up Bai Xiaolian...... Just abandon her.
"Someone, send the young lady back to the boudoir. Since this kind of thing has been done, there should be a price. ”
Looking at Mrs. Bai who was crying bitterly, this daughter was taught badly by his brainless wife......
Now the emperor has a bad impression of their family, and he doesn't know the next year-end official assessment......
The brother-in-law said a few days ago that he would get him a promotion position, but now I'm afraid it will be bumpy.
