"As long as my mother can help me go over and ask for someone, I will bear the result." Bai Zedong knelt over, grabbed Bai Xiuzhu's skirt and cried, "Mother, you help me, mother." I can't live without Suzuki. ”

Bai Xiuzhu nodded, "Get up, you are my son, the man has gold under his knees, you can't kneel like this and beg someone." Seeing that Bai Zedong couldn't get up, he reached out to help him again, "Get up!" Even the mother can't kneel. ”

Bai Zedong burst into tears: "Thank you, mother." ”

Bai Xiuzhu turned back to Bai Zeyu and said, "Go and prepare a generous gift, I will go to Chen Guogong's Mansion tomorrow." ”

"Mother, do you really want to go there yourself for the sake of a maid?" Bai Zeyu was puzzled.

Bai Xiuzhu said: "Zeyu, if you are so willful in the future, I will also satisfy you." This is the mother. ”

After noon, in the main hall of Chen Guogong's mansion, Bai Xiuzhu bowed to Chen Guogong and said, "Please look at my face and give that maid to my son, he is really worried." ”

Chen Guogong said: "You are also a relative of the emperor, do you think it is decent to do such a thing?" ”

"For the sake of the son. I'd rather do something that isn't dignified. And please fulfill me. Bai Xiuzhu simply showed her old face.

"Forgive me." Chen Guogong refused very firmly.

When she walked out of Chen Guogong's mansion, Bai Xiuzhu's mood was extremely relaxed.

can finally give an explanation to the second son.

If Chen Guogong promised her that she would still be angry, it would not be ashamed if such a maid married into the door.

Fortunately, Chen Guogong refused.

After returning home, Bai Zedong didn't say a word, locked himself up, and went on a hunger strike.

Bai Xiuzhu was anxious, Bai Zeyu said, "Mother, why don't I go and snatch the maid over to my younger brother." ”

"That's easy for you to say! Is Chen Guogong's Mansion so easy to get into? Where are you? Bai Xiuzhu scolded.

"Then wait outside the wall, wait for the maid to come out, and snatch it away!"

Bai Xiuzhu was dissatisfied: "You know how to rob." Now there is an official government. If you robbed it, aren't you going to go to prison yourself? ”

"I'm also for my brother." Bai Zeyu felt that Bai Xiuzhu was eccentric.

Bai Xiuzhu said: "Now I have only one way to save your brother, and that is to ask the emperor for marriage." ”

"For the sake of a maid, how could the emperor give marriage? Doesn't this offend Chen Guogong? "Lin Ce and Chen Guogong are also relatives, how could they agree to Bai Xiuzhu's ridiculous request.

"I beg the emperor, and the emperor will definitely give me a face." Bai Xiuzhu is also Lin Ce's aunt no matter what she says.

Bai Xiuzhu knew that she was such a face in front of Lin Ce. Therefore, it is not used.

I just don't want to, so I want to use it for this kind of thing.

But if you don't do this, the maid won't be able to buy it, and Bai Zedong will starve to death.

Palace.

Blue sky and white clouds, a paper kite in the air leisurely flying, under the paper kite, the green branches or high, such as an undulating wave.

Zhou Zheng is wearing an orange silver thread embroidered unicorn robe, wearing a snow-white round-necked middle coat, Chu-colored pants, and a pair of white deerskin boots, which looks majestic.

Bai Xiuzhu knelt on the ground.

The head couldn't be lowered.

"It seems that you also know that this is an extremely undignified thing, so you don't dare to look up." Zhou Zhengzheng ate a bowl of red date porridge and said slowly.

"Please also ask the Queen Mother to fulfill it." Bai Xiuzhu insisted.

Zhou Zhengzheng said: "It's not that I can't fulfill you. If your youngest son wants to kill people and set fires, do you have to satisfy him? If you can't satisfy you, you have to come and beg me, then don't I know the law and break the law? Although I am the queen mother, I must take into account the law and the people in everything. I can't do whatever I want. ”

Zhou Zheng rewarded Bai Xiuzhu with a pair of jade pipes and drove to the imperial study.

Bai Xiuzhu was still kneeling, her shadow was stretched on the ground, her back was slightly bent, as if she couldn't stand up, and she looked a little lonely.

"Madame, get up." The eunuch said, "The Queen Mother has already said that even if you kneel until dark, you won't be able to change anything." ”

"I know." Squeezing out a hoarse sound from her throat stuffed with thick phlegm, Bai Xiuzhu slowly got up, and her kneeling numb feet trembled a few times, like messy dead wood in the wind.

The red gate slowly closed, and Bai Xiuzhu walked out.

Looking at his back, a little lonely, Zhou Zhengzheng's eyes were red.

The eunuch said, "Didn't the Queen Mother want to change her mind?" ”

"Nope. I can't change my mind because I can't know the law and break the law. I just feel that the Bai family has such a child, and he will definitely fall into turmoil in the future. It's not easy to talk about the Bai family. was poor before, but now he has finally become a relative of the emperor and the country, but he is going to suffer this catastrophe, but he is afraid that he will ...... But even so, I can't change my mind. I hope Bai Xiuzhu will go back, her second son will not be so willful again. Zhou Zhengzheng said leisurely into the distance, "No matter who you are, you can't stop a heart that is determined to die." ”

The night was like ink, and a carriage flashed out of the darkness, accompanied by the urgent sound of horses' hooves, a string of clear copper bells, and the two bundles of red spikes hanging in front of the carriage also swayed one after another.

Bai Xiuzhu is back.

As soon as she walked into the room, a servant came over and said that the second master wanted to come and see her.

Bai Xiuzhu sighed: "It's late today, see you tomorrow, let him go back." "The door is closed." "The sound was particularly harsh in the quiet night.

Bai Xiuzhu sat on the bed, the silver futon on the bed was very warm, and she felt more comfortable.

In fact, she really wanted to meet Bai Zedong and comfort him.

But she was afraid that the news she had brought would shatter his last confidence.

It's better not to see, it's a day to be able to drag it out for a day.

Early the next morning, there was a storm outside the window, and even the pavilion in the courtyard in front of the window was blurred.

Bai Xiuzhu felt better.

Who knows, Bai Zedong ran over directly without eating, and knelt down with a "plop": "Mother, you entered the palace yesterday to meet the Queen Mother, did the Queen Mother promise you?" ”

"Son, come here, let me touch you." Bai Xiuzhu didn't answer the question.

Bai Zedong held back his patience and walked over, Bai Xiuzhu stroked the messy and soft hair of his second son, his eyes were misty, and after half a salary, he coughed a few times and said with difficulty: "The Queen Mother doesn't agree." ”

In Bai Zedong's eyes, all the brilliance was extinguished, dimmed, and fell into the eternal night.

"Son, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother. Bai Xiuzhu saw that Bai Zedong did not respond for a long time, and she was so anxious that she cried.

When the maids came, Bai Zedong fainted in the arms of the maids.

So the maids hurriedly helped Bai Zedong to collapse. Bai Xiuzhu sat on the edge of the bed and cried.

Bai Zeyu came over.

Looking at the mess, this white family was anxious.
