A few words lightly and skillfully, but when they fell into their ears, they were like a thunderclap on the ground, and people were caught off guard.

He gasped and was shocked for a while before he regained his voice: "...... Subordinates, let's go! ”

Ziyang Jun, who has always been indifferent to everything, would be angry at the crown? After being shocked, I was a little moved. It's not easy! The old iron tree, which has lived for more than 20 years, has finally bloomed a fresh flower, and it really has to be seen by everyone in the Jiang family!

Thinking like this, the wind was blowing under his feet, and he rushed out of the wing room in an instant.

Huaiyu lay on the bed in a daze, listening to someone talking, but he couldn't hear what was said. Dimly, I felt that someone turned me over, and then something gently pulled on my back, and the skin and flesh suddenly hurt hotly.

"Hiss-" shēn yín uttered in pain, her eyelids lifted with difficulty.

Lingxiu stood beside her bed, holding half of her mid-length shirt in her hand, her eyes staring at her back, tears falling down like beads with broken threads. Seeing her open her eyes, tears fell even more fiercely: "xiǎo jiě......"

"Why are you crying again?" Huaiyu said to her in a trance, "I'm fine...... Don't cry ...... you yet."

Is this still called okay? Lingxiu shook her head in a hurry, her mouth opened, but she found that her throat was so blocked that she couldn't speak, she stomped her feet twice, and she cried even more fiercely with a "wow".

Jiang Xuanjin was originally facing away from the bed, but when she heard Lingxiu's cry, she thought that something had happened to the person on the bed, so she turned around.

The person on the bed was lying on his stomach, half of his clothes were gone, the material on his back was stuck with blood, and as far as his eyes could see, there was a mixture of blue and black, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

There is such a serious injury on the back?! Jiang Xuanjin's heart was shocked, and he was a little incredulous. Who are the people in the White Mansion who can really do such a heavy hand to her?

Li Huaiyu's pupils were dilated, and his breath was weak, but he still said intermittently to Lingxiu: "It's just a little flesh wound...... I didn't make them any better...... Don't worry......"

Seeing her like this, Jiang Xuanjin frowned, and she didn't care about any incivility, so she stepped forward and said to her in Lingxiu's place: "Go find the medical girl." ”

Lingxiu was still crying, and it took a while to react, nod and run out.

She ran away, and Li Huaiyu moved her eyes with difficulty, and her gaze fell on the person next to her.

"You ......" still didn't die and teased him, even if he was half-dead, Huaiyu said to him in a dumb voice, "Your face is so ugly...... Are you feeling sorry for me? ”

It's all like this, and you're still in the mood to say this kind of nonsense? Jiang Xuanjin was really angry: "No! ”

Flattening his mouth aggrievedly, Huaiyu muttered in a low voice: "It's really ruthless......"

The ruthless Jiang Xuanjin had a straight face, and was about to ask her why she did this, but she saw that the person on the bed tilted his head as if he couldn't hold it, and his eyes suddenly closed.

Startled, he immediately reached out to probe her snort.

Live.

There was a silence in my heart, and then I beat wildly. Jiang Xuanjin looked down and felt that she might have some kind of heart disease, and it was not normal all day today.

"Your Majesty." Lingxiu came back after going out for a while, stomped his feet and said hurriedly, "They said that the doctor girl in the house is on Madame's side, so she doesn't have time to come!" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Xuanjin's face turned cold.

The punishment method can still find an explanation, but knowing that Bai Zhuji was so badly injured, he detained the doctor girl by his side, and it was clear that he wanted to put her to death. The dignified Mrs. Yushi, her heart is so vicious?

took off the inscription on his waist and handed it to her with his purse, Jiang Xuanjin said: "You take these to the outside of the house to invite a doctor girl to come back, go to the side door, and don't have to tell the Bai family's housewife." ”

"Yes!"

The doctor girl who went out of the house to invite came much more briskly than the one in the house, but the doctor girl never let go of her brows since she entered the door and saw the person on the bed.

"You have to take off the girl's clothes first, and prepare some warm water for me. If there is clean salt in the house, bring some of it. She said.

Lingxiu complied, Jiang Xuanjin watched by the side, and couldn't help asking, "Is there a big problem?" ”

The medicine woman sighed and said, "This is not only a big problem, but it is the girl's life to survive." Looking at her pulse, she must have had an old illness in her body before, and this one was seriously injured, both inside and out, and her mind was tired, and the little girl was really not sure that she could be cured. ”

Jiang Xuanjin was stunned and frowned: "You just have to say what medicinal materials you need." ”

"This is no longer a problem with medicinal herbs......," the doctor girl sighed, looked at his expression, and said helplessly, "The little girl will write a recipe for this girl first." ”

"Okay."

Taking a pen and paper to write by her, Jiang Xuanjin turned around and walked back to the bed, looked at the miserable white face, thought about it, reached out and grabbed her hand, and wiped the agarwood Buddha beads he had worn all year round on her wrist.

At the moment of Shen, the sun sets.

Bai Dezhong finally finished the affairs of the court and returned to the house in a sedan chair, but as soon as he stepped into the gate of his mansion, a slave from the east courtyard greeted him and said, "Master, go and see Madame!" ”

"What's wrong with ma'am?" He was puzzled.

The slave led the way, shaking his head as he walked: "It's not easy to say that the slave, you will understand when you go to the East Courtyard." ”

Bai Dezhong followed, secretly wondering in his heart that this Bai Mengshi would sell off.

However, when he arrived at the door of the main house in the east courtyard, he immediately understood why the house slave was not easy to say.

The house, which had always been tidy, was now a mess. The tables and chairs fell to the ground, the fine porcelain that used to be placed everywhere was now in pieces, the copper incense burner and the silver spittoon were all smashed on the ground and deformed, and there were even some blood stains on the wall.

With frowning brows, Bai De shouted again: "This is a thief!" ”

Bai Mengshi came out of the side hall crying, pinched the handkerchief and knelt down towards him: "Master, you have to be the master of the concubine!" ”

"What the hell is going on?" Bai De helped her up, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Wiping away his tears, Bai Mengshi choked up and said, "What you see is all done by Zhuji!" She didn't return all night last night, but she sneaked back this morning. The concubine was angry that she didn't love herself, so she wanted to punish her for a long memory, who would have thought that she would not obey the discipline, not to mention the injury of the house slave, and also smashed all the things in the concubine's house! ”

Bai Dezhong was shocked when he heard it: "Really? ”

"The evidence is here, can the concubine still lie?" Bai Mengshi sighed, "I was sad that she lost her marriage, and I didn't want to worry too much about her, so I just spent a few days sharpening my temperament." Who would have thought that not only did she not have the slightest remorse, but also found someone to support her, and she was not punished as she deserved, and she left with great strength! ”

Bai De was furious: "Who dares to support her? ”

At the mention of this, Bai Mengshi hesitated twice, but did not dare to answer.

Mama Liu next to her immediately continued, "Sixiǎo Jiě has done more than that!" She also stole Erxiǎo Jiě's dowry, and she was not ashamed to be discovered, but threatened to steal all Erxiǎo Jiě's dowry! ”

What is this called? Bai De was so angry that his eyes turned black, and he didn't care about whether he supported his waist or not, he reached out and took out the mahogany ring ruler in his sleeve, and shouted angrily: "Where is she now!" ”

Bai Mengshi said: "It's in the West Courtyard." ”

Bai Dezhong turned around and left, his heart was simply angry!

He has always been self-disciplined, and he has done his best to teach his children, not asking them to have much success, as long as he knows etiquette, righteousness and honesty, and argues between right and wrong, then it will not be in vain for many years of his hard work. As a result, he even taught an arrogant and lawless bandit?

Bai Zhuji didn't return all night last night, he was already angry, and when he heard what Bai Mengshi said today, Bai Dezhong really wanted to beat Bai Zhuji back into his mother's womb, as if he had never given birth to this daughter!

rushed all the way to the west courtyard, he pushed open the door of the wing room, and saw Bai Zhuji sleeping on the bed.

I'm still sleeping!

Angry, Bai Dezhong stepped into the house, didn't look at the other people in the room, and hit the person on the bed with the ring ruler!

"Sir!" Lingxiu exclaimed.

Bai Dezhong ignored her, and it was impossible to ignore her, now it was useless for anyone to stop him, he didn't plan to stop when he waved out the ring ruler!

However, in the flash of light, someone next to him suddenly turned sideways and blocked the bed. The three-foot-long mahogany ring ruler landed on the man's hand with a crisp sound.

"Smack!"

Everyone in the room gasped.

Bai Dezhong was stunned, staring at the man's hand holding the ring ruler for a while, and then slowly looked up at his face.

"Lord White." Jiang Xuanjin's face was gloomy, he pinched the other end of the ring ruler and pushed it to the side, closed his sleeves and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Your Majesty?!" Seeing that it was him, Bai Dezhong took two steps back, and for a moment thought that he had broken into the wrong place. But looking back, the furnishings of this room, the scenery outside the house, and the Lingxiu standing next to it all prove that this is indeed a jeweled room.

At the end of Shen Shi, it was getting late, and Ziyangjun was still in someone else's daughter's room?!

The anger that had just been stagnant surged up again, Bai Dezhong looked at him in disbelief, and said angrily and angrily: "I thought that the king was a righteous gentleman who knew how to be polite, but I didn't expect to be able to do such a thing of trespassing into the boudoir!" ”

I can't see my own daughter who is half dead on the bed, but I accuse him of trespassing in the boudoir? Jiang Xuanjin frowned and looked at him, and in an instant he understood why Bai Meng's clan dared to beat Bai Zhuji like this.

Bai Dezhong, the old man, didn't take Bai Zhuji's life seriously at all.

"Your Majesty." The doctor next to her trembled and handed him the medicine, "It's going to be faster, you can't delay." ”

As soon as he heard this, Jiang Xuanjin couldn't care about Bai Dezhong, and after taking the medicine, he said to Lingxiu: "Help your family xiǎo jiě." ”

"Yes!" Lingxiu hurriedly went over and sat at the head of the bed, held up Li Huaiyu and asked her to turn sideways, so that it was convenient to fill the medicine.

With this flip, Bai Dezhong found that the face of the person on the bed was as white as paper, and the smell of blood in the room was also very heavy.

"What's going on?" He was stunned.

Lingxiu gritted her teeth and said, "Xiǎo Jiě was beaten half to death by his wife, and there is no good place in his body right now. The old man doesn't care about it, but he still wants to beat the last breath of xiǎo jiě! She's your own daughter! Why is your heart so ruthless! ”

Upon hearing this, Bai Dezhong was surprised: "Madame hit her? ”

After a pause, he frowned again: "She has made so many mistakes, she should be beaten!" ”

The green tendons on his forehead jumped, Jiang Xuanjin looked at Bai Dezhong, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted with a cold face: "Yufeng!" ”

took advantage of the void to go to Jiangfu, and Yufeng heard the news and came to Baifu first. Hearing the sound at this time, Yufeng immediately pulled out the Emei thorn on his waist.

"What for?" Bai De said solemnly, "This is Bai Mansion!" Don't say that you are more than right, do you still want to bully the master? ”

Completely ignoring his words, Jiang Xuanjin ordered Yu Feng: "Clean up the idlers and others out of this courtyard, you are guarding the door, and don't let a fly in without my orders." ”

"Yes!" In response to the wind, Emei thorned in front of Bai Dezhong, pushing him and walking out.

In the words "idle people, etc.", he is actually included? Bai De re-exited the room, looked back, and was really angry: "Jiang Xuanjin, you deceive people too much!" Tomorrow, the old man will definitely join you! ”

Putting down the empty medicine bowl, Jiang Xuanjin got up and went to the door, pinched the doorstring and looked at the angry person outside, and said coldly: "My lord, just go to the ginseng, this gentleman is waiting for His Majesty to summon you." ”

With that, he slammed the door shut with a wave of his hand, blocking out all the noise.

The people in the room were too frightened to speak, the doctor girl trembled and looked at the medicinal materials brought by the wind, and Lingxiu also hurried to see Huaiyu on the bed.

I don't know if I don't see it, but this look frightened her and exclaimed: "xiǎo jiě! ”

The person on the bed frowned, his face, which was still pale just now, turned red into an abnormal color in an instant, his mouth was slightly open, and his whole body twitched, like a fish falling on the stone ground. The skin that was originally good medicine oozing blood again.

Jiang Xuanjin's chin tightened, and she hurriedly strode over and reached out to probe her forehead.

It's hot to the touch!

Taking a light breath, he turned his head to look at the medicine woman: "I have a high fever." ”

When the doctor heard this, she hurriedly put down the things in her hand, went over and checked the pulse again, and her expression was solemn for a moment.

How? Jiang Xuanjin looked at her.

The medicine woman sighed, pointed out the door, got up and walked out. Jiang Xuanjin understood, followed out, and took shàng mén.

"I'll be blunt." The door closed, and the doctor woman whispered, "This girl has serious internal and external injuries, especially the spleen and lungs, if you don't have a high fever, you may have a chance to take some elixirs, but at this time, the high fever does not subside, I'm afraid it will ......."

She didn't say the rest of the words, Jiang Xuanjin also understood, her face was not shocked, but the cuffs were slightly tightened.

The medicine woman sighed: "I'll go and get some antipyretic medicine for her, and I'll bother you to find some wine and let someone wipe her body." Whether she can survive it depends on her creation. ”

"Okay." In a low voice, he watched the medicine woman leave, and stood at the door for a moment.

The night is as cold as water, and all parts of the Baifu have turned off the lights and slept peacefully, except for the wing room in the west courtyard, which is brightly lit. Reaching out to catch the light leaking from the crack in the door, Jiang Xuanjin pursed his lips and sighed very softly.

Pushing the door back, he asked Lingxiu to find half a jar of wine, and then twisted the veil, wiping Huaiyu's face, hands and feet little by little. After going back and forth for an hour, I didn't get bored.

The medicine of the medical woman was delivered, and Jiang Xuanjin finally stopped.

"Feed her." The healer gestured, "Be careful not to touch her wounds." ”

Lingxiu picked up Huaiyu in response, Jiang Xuanjin took the medicine and blew it cooler, and sent it to her mouth one by one.

However, this time, Li Huaiyu didn't swallow the medicine, but actually frowned and spit it out. Jiang Xuanjin looked at it, her face sank, and she simply put the spoon, picked up the bowl and pinched her mouth and poured it down.

I still spit out a lot, but I swallowed some of it. A bowl of medicine bottomed out, Jiang Xuanjin clamped her for another half an hour, and Huaiyu gradually settled down and stopped convulsing.

As the night deepened, the noise outside the courtyard faded away. Lingxiu looked at Shi Chen uneasily, and then looked at Ziyang Jun who was sitting on the edge of the bed and did not move, and couldn't help but whisper: "Your Majesty, you go to the guest room to rest, there are slaves and maids watching here." ”

Jiang Xuanjin didn't move, only changed the handkerchief and continued to wipe her face, and asked her casually: "What do you eat in the house on weekdays?" ”

Lingxiu was stunned for a moment, not understanding why he asked this, but he still answered truthfully: "As usual, every day breakfast porridge and side dishes, two vegetarian dishes and one or two rice at noon, dinner is similar to lunch." ”

said, and babbled again: "There are people in this mansion who see the high and the low, and they know that the lady does not wait to see my family, and they will be treated badly in terms of food and clothing." Previously, when xiǎo jiě was stupid, they still made fun of xiǎo jiě, and they didn't beat and scold her while I wasn't there. Now that they have finally come to their senses, they have changed their fake to deduct the moon money and silver, and their lives are really difficult! ”

After Jiang Xuanjin listened, he glanced at the person on the bed and said in a low voice: "I thought it was ...... I really blamed her. ”

At that time, she said that she was not well fed and clothed in Baifu, and he lied to him for sympathy when she lied, but what she said turned out to be true, but he didn't want to believe it.

For so long, did the lies he thought were also true to her that he had ignored?

With this thought, countless words she had said suddenly sounded in her ears:

……

"Are you stupid, the girl's family said that she would make amends for you, just to hook up with you, who cares whether to pay or not!"

……

"I'm not going to let go, don't say these useless words."

……

"In my eyes, nature is the most important thing for you."

……

Jiang Xuanjin frowned, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head to drive these voices away. However, the softest sentence in the end still unstoppably drilled into his ears.

"I want to see you all the time."

Her voice is like a yellow warbler, and the end note has a charming little hook, which tickles people's hearts.

As soon as his heart was hot, Jiang Xuanjin only felt that his throat was slightly tight. Looking down again, the smiling face in Fang Cai's ears and eyes gradually disappeared, and the person on the bed was still weak and pale.

He clenched the handkerchief in his hand.

"Your Majesty?" Lingxiu was startled and looked at him puzzled.

Slightly stunned, he noticed his gaffe, and slowly lowered his eyes: "It's okay." ”

The restlessness in his chest gradually calmed down, and Jiang Xuanjin stretched out his hand and probed Huaiyu's forehead again.

The high fever still did not go away.

His heart sank, and he turned to the doctor and said, "Come and see her." ”

The medicine woman who was dozing off at the table came back to her senses and hurriedly came over to recheck her pulse. This handful, and the lips turned white.

"How?" Jiang Xuanjin asked.

After hesitating for a while, the doctor girl spit out four words with difficulty: "Resign yourself to fate." ”

Jiang Xuanjin listened, looked down at the person on the bed, and did not let go of his sword eyebrows.

Reaching out and flicking the Buddhist beads that she wore on her wrist and following him for many years, he whispered: "Even if it is the destiny of heaven, you should be biased towards you." ”

Hearing this, Lingxiu looked at him in amazement, and inexplicably felt that his nose was sour.

After Bai Dezhong left the West Courtyard, he went back to Bai Meng's side. Although he was very angry at Jiang Xuanjin's domineering behavior, he also felt that something was wrong when he calmed down, so he asked Bai Mengshi: "You hit the injury on Zhuji's body?" ”

Bai Mengshi was stunned, and then said aggrievedly: "Didn't the concubine say it?" I wanted her to have a long memory, so I asked her to ask for a family law. But the family law is not heavy at all, who is willing to beat her hard? Don't believe those tricks! ”

"Then what's going on with Ziyang-kun?" Bai Dezhong frowned, "Why didn't you tell me before that he was protecting Zhuji?" ”

Bai Mengshi was even more aggrieved: "What is Ziyangjun's identity, he doesn't give half of his face to his concubine, where does the concubine dare to sue him?" ”

It's true that he doesn't give half face, let alone Bai Meng, he doesn't even please him.

Bai De thought about it again, and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Bai Mengshi said, so he was angry, so he washed and rested first, and planned to visit him tomorrow morning.

But when he really slept and got up, walking on the way to the court, Bai Dezhong hesitated again.

Yesterday, Ziyang Jun didn't have a trace of guilt on his face, and he was upright between walking and sitting, not like he had done something wrong. Before leaving, he was not afraid that he would play the emperor, and even said that he was waiting for His Majesty to summon him.

Is there anything else he doesn't know?

Standing in the middle of the court and quietly glancing at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, Bai Dezhong hesitated again and again, and finally swallowed the recital he had thought of back into his stomach.

Today, there are inexplicably few people in the court, and the court meeting will end in an hour. Bai De hurriedly walked out of the palace, thinking that if Jiang Xuanjin was still in the West Courtyard today and did not give an explanation, then he would go to the old lady of the Jiang family and say.

However, stepping into the White Mansion with one foot, Bai Dezhong was startled by the scene inside.

The bridal burden covered with red silk was lined up from the door all the way to the front hall, and at a glance, it looked like a fiery dragon.

"Sir!" The porter came up to salute him with a happy face, "You can come back, everyone in the Jiang family is waiting in the front hall!" ”

Slightly stunned, Bai Dezhong gently patted his forehead. secretly said that he was really angry, and he forgot that today was the day when Jiang Fu came to be hired. At present, Xuanji's marriage is the most important, as for the rest, you can wait until you are free.

Lifting his spirits, he tidied up his demeanor and stepped into the front hall.

Bai Mengshi was already standing in the front hall, and his afterglow swept over the red of the house and courtyard, and he was simply overjoyed.

The dowry has always determined the importance of the in-laws to their daughter-in-law, and her family is really promising, so that the Jiang family gave the highest regulation of sixty-four lifts, just by looking at the exposed corners of the first two loads, you can know how much weight is covered under the red silk.

The relatives of the Bai family standing behind her all said enviously: "Xuanji is well married, this daughter is not raised in vain!" ”

When Bai Mengshi heard this, he was even happier in his heart, but he still covered his lips with a reserved face: "The dowry is secondary, and it is the right thing for Xuanji to marry a good husband." ”

Several relatives complimented her a few more times, and they lifted Bai Meng's to the sky.

The people of the Jiang family sat in the guest seat and drank tea quietly, without saying a word.

Bai De came in again, didn't look too much, and first greeted Jiang Chong, who was at the front: "The Lao family and you have been waiting for a long time. ”

Jiang Chong got up, didn't respond to his "in-laws", and arched his hand: "Lord Bai serves the country, let's wait a while." ”

Bai Dezhong was stunned for a moment, and smiled politely, but felt that something was wrong. Glancing to the side, he was stunned.

Old lady Jiang sat on the guest seat with a dragon head cane, and there was a smiling Jiang Shen beside him, and the row of people standing behind him were all uncles and relatives of the Jiang family.

No wonder the court meeting is empty today, why are all these people here?!

Frightened in his heart, Bai De calmed himself down, and bowed to the old lady Jiang to make up for it: "The old lady actually came to the house in person, Bai is really frightened!" ”

Old Lady Jiang smiled, looked at him kindly, and said, "The in-laws sit first." ”

Glancing at the people behind him, Bai Dezhong sat down stiffly, only daring to sit for half a seat, and his body was straight.

The old lady said again: "Today, the old man is here to be hired." ”

Bai De nodded and arched his hand: "Actually, according to the rules, the general can come over." You came to visit, but it made Bai ashamed that he didn't pay enough courtesy. ”

The old lady smiled and shook his head: "The old man came over according to the rules, the in-laws don't have to be uneasy, and the etiquette in the house is very thorough." ”

What does this mean? Bai Dezhong was a little dazed, and Bai Mengshi behind him was also confused.

According to the rules, isn't it the groom's father who came to give the dowry? Jiang Yan wants to marry, what is the old lady doing? Besides, is the general just out of his mouth? How do you call Bai Dezhong an "adult"? It should be called "in-laws" like the old lady.

Before they could figure it out, Old Lady Jiang said again: "Dog Xuanjin is still bothering in your mansion?" ”

Speaking of this stubble, Bai Dezhong's face was a little unsightly: "The king must still be in the West Courtyard." ”

"That's good." The old lady nodded, turned his eyes to Jiang Chong and said, "Go and call him over." ”

Bai Mengshi took a look at it, and hurriedly interjected: "The Jiang family has come for Xuanji's marriage today, and they are already mobilizing the people, why should they alarm the king again?" ”

Glancing at her, the old lady smiled and said, "If it is for the marriage of your mansion, the old man doesn't have to sit here today." ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Dezhong finally thought of something, looked at the people of the Jiang family in amazement, opened his mouth to speak, and felt that his thoughts were so ridiculous that he couldn't say anything.

Bai Mengshi frowned incomprehensibly, feeling that these words were inexplicable. The people in the hall of Baifu exchanged their heads and talked about each other.

West Courtyard Wing.

Jiang Xuanjin didn't sleep all night, but he still didn't wait for the person on the bed to wake up, and his eyes stared at the medical woman who was checking the pulse, and the color was as dark as night.

The doctor pressed her pulse tremblingly, and she didn't say anything for a while. He was a little agitated, and he stepped forward to probe the man's snort again. However, before he could put his finger on it, the door of the wing room was pushed open.

"Master." Yu Feng came in and said, "The old lady invites you to go to the front hall, and the eldest prince is waiting for you outside the courtyard gate." ”

Invite him to go, presumably Bai De will return to the court. Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, looked at the person on the bed, her fingers stopped an inch away from her snort, and after thinking about it, she finally hung down and tucked the quilt for her.

"I'll take care of something else for her first." He got up and said to Lingxiu, "Take care of your family, and if there is anything, come and let me know." ”

Lingxiu nodded repeatedly.

Taking the clean robe handed over by Yu Feng, Jiang Xuanjin changed his clothes, wiped his face with cold water, and went out to find Jiang Chong. The two went to the front hall together, and as soon as they crossed the threshold, they heard the old lady scold: "What kind of system have you become!" ”

Everyone was startled, and they didn't know who he was denouncing. Jiang Xuanjin stepped forward very consciously, stood in front of him and bowed his head: "My son is rude." ”

"You know you're rude?" The old lady glared, "On the day of the next hire, you are a person who wants to marry, can you come later than your in-laws?" ”

The front hall that was still noisy just now, because of this sentence, was instantly quiet as if everyone was dead.

Bai Dezhong's eyes widened, Bai Meng's eyes widened, and the people of the Bai family behind him were all stupid. Someone even gouged out his ears, suspecting that he was dreaming.

Who is the one to marry? Ziyang-kun? Isn't this old lady old and confused?

In shock, Jiang Xuanjin's face was very calm, turned to Bai Dezhong, and said lightly: "The younger generation is late, and I hope that the adults will forgive their sins." ”

Bai Dezhong: "......"

Although Jiang Xuanjin is younger than him, his identity is here, and he has always called himself "Benjun". At first glance, when he called himself a "junior", Bai Dezhong felt inexplicably panicked.

"What's going on?" Bai Mengshi was not calm, frowned and glanced at Jiang Xuanjin, and then looked at the old lady behind him, "Shouldn't you hire Xuanji for the little young master of the Jiang family today?" How did it become that Ziyang Jun wanted to marry? ”

The old lady leaned on crutches and said with a smile: "I invited so many people from the two families to come today, in order to make this matter clear, so as not to fall into the tongue in the future - Xuan Jin is older than Yan'er, and his marriage is naturally ahead of Yan'er." Today, I arrived in my Jiang Mansion, just to let Lord Bai see the sincerity of my Jiang Mansion and rest assured that I would marry my daughter to Xuan Jin. ”

Hearing this, Bai Dezhong was shocked, not shocked by how sincere Jiang Fu was, but shocked...... Ziyangjun really wants to be his son-in-law?

How many people in the court want to get married to Ziyang Jun, Qi Ge Lao is even willing to give him his concubine as a concubine, he didn't even look at such a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city, how did he fall in love with Bai Zhuji?

If it weren't for yesterday's events, Bai Dezhong might have naively thought that Ziyang Jun had a crush on Xuanji. But after yesterday's events...... If he didn't know who he wanted to marry, he would have lived in vain for more than 40 years!

Bai Mengshi obviously thought of this as well, his face turned from red to white in an instant, and he glared at Jiang Xuanjin, his fingernails embedded in the flesh.

He wants to marry Bai Zhuji? How could he marry Bai Zhuji! Xuanji's marriage to Jiang Yan is still considered high, why did the four fools marry Ziyangjun? If this thing really happens, won't Xuanji call her aunt in the future? It's ridiculous!

Furious, she didn't care about any etiquette, and hurriedly said, "This can't be done!" ”

Bai Dezhong hadn't spoken yet, but the female dependents spoke first. Old lady Jiang frowned, looked at her very unpleasantly, and asked in a deep voice, "Why not?" ”

Bai Mengshi was a little flustered, and stepped forward angrily and anxiously to ask, "Does the old lady know who the monarch intends to marry?" ”

"Of course I know." He nodded, "Guifu four xiǎo jiě, Bai Zhu Ji." ”

"Since you know, the old lady should also know that Bai Zhuji has been stupid and misbehaved for many years! It's not okay to marry the little master, so how can you marry the king? Bai Mengshi shook his head again and again, "Please think twice, old lady!" ”

This was said so ugly that she stepped on Jiang Yan invisibly, and Jiang Chong next to her glanced at her, and she lost her good face.

"You are presumptuous!" Bai Dezhong sensed that something was wrong and reprimanded her, "Where is there a place for you to speak?" ”

"The king is the pillar of the country, and his marriage naturally cannot be sloppy. Even if the lord punishes the concubine today, the concubine has to explain that she can't let her deceive the king! "Bai Meng's just attitude of killing relatives with righteousness," what the concubine said was true. That Bai Zhuji is not only a thief, but also does not return home at night, and his reputation is ruined, and it is really difficult to reach the hall of elegance! ”

When other families marry their daughters, they are eager to say all the good things, for fear of being despised by their in-laws. This Baifu is good, only the hired person can say a few words, and the housewife is anxious to pour dirty water on the daughter to be married.

Jiang Xuanjin raised her eyes to look at her angry appearance, and hooked her lips slightly: "Is everything true?" ”

Meeting his gaze, Bai Mengshi was a little weak-hearted, but he still nodded vigorously: "Yes, everyone in the house knows!" Because of her vanity, Bai Zhuji stole her second sister's dowry and dressed, and she ran away yesterday and didn't come back all night! ”

"Stealing her second sister's dowry?" Jiang Xuanjin thought for a moment, "Lady Bai refers to those jewelry on the four xiǎo jiě yesterday?" ”

"Yes!" Bai Mengshi said firmly, "It was all prepared by the concubine for the second daughter, and the concubine has seen it herself, so there will be no mistake." ”

With a sneer, Jiang Xuanjin turned over his hand and took out a golden silk eight treasures to save beads: "Then Mrs. Bai, let's see, is this also the dowry of Erxiǎo Jiě?" ”

This is Bai Zhuji falling in Moju, or Yufeng picked up the Bai Mansion that he brought, he originally planned to return her when she woke up, but he didn't expect it to come in handy.

Bai Mengshi looked at the hairpin in his hand, and felt that the workmanship was similar to those on Bai Zhuji's body, so he immediately nodded: "Yes!" This one too! ”

Withdrawing his hand, Jiang Xuanjin nodded: "That's easy, this hairpin is from the Canghai Relic Pearl Pavilion, and the house of the shopkeeper Lu of the Canghai Relic Pearl Pavilion is next door." If Madame Bai insists on saying that these things are the dowry that you have purchased for Erxiǎo Jiě, then you might as well invite the shopkeeper Lu to come, and everything will be clear when you ask. ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Meng's face suddenly turned blue, and then he said angrily: "The king means that the concubine is lying? ”

This is an annoyed and angry rhetorical question, how can ordinary people be bluffed by her, how can they say something like "I didn't mean this".

However, standing in front of her was Jiang Xuanjin, who never gave face.

"You're lying." He raised his eyebrows, and his expression became more and more cold, "The jewelry of the four xiǎo jiě was given by the shopkeeper of the Canghai Relic Pearl Pavilion, but you said that it was the dowry of the stolen Bai Erxiǎo Jiě. The head of the Bai family, the housewife, slandered the juniors in public? ”

didn't expect the lie to be exposed on the spot, Bai Mengshi was suddenly embarrassed, stammered, and his embarrassment was fully revealed.

With her appearance, Bai Dezhong felt embarrassed when he looked at her, and scolded angrily: "How dare you talk nonsense here!" ”

"The concubine is ......" Bai Mengshi gritted his teeth, cheekily denying it, "The concubine didn't lie!" It is clear that the king intends to shield Bai Zhuji! Take a few steps back, even if she got the jewelry from somewhere else, it's a fact that she doesn't come home at night! A girl who has not left the cabinet and stays in someone else's house for the night, who knows what happened! ”

"You're messing around!" It was about the name of his daughter's family, Bai Dezhong finally couldn't sit still, and when he got up, he gave Bai Mengshi a slap and beat her to a staggering few steps.

Covering his face and leaning on the table, Bai Meng's eyes became more and more resentful: "The concubine is telling the truth, and it is also for the good of our Bai family." If the king marries Zhuji on impulse, and then finds out that something is wrong, won't he blame our family? ”

These words can be said to be sinister, and every word implies that Bai Zhuji is not clean, and when he says it in front of the two elders, he almost has no intention of leaving Bai Zhuji alive.

The Jiang family looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, Old Lady Jiang suddenly stood up and bent down towards Bai Dezhong.

Bai Dezhong hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, frowned and said, "You are tormenting Bai!" ”

"The old man deserves this salute." Old Lady Jiang sighed, "As Mrs. Bai said, it is indeed not good for a girl who has not left the cabinet to stay at someone else's house for the night. ”

Bai Mengshi was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that his words had finally taken effect.

However, the old lady then said: "What's more, Xuan Jin has always been a person who keeps etiquette, and he knows that this is not good for Sixiǎo Jiě, but he also left her in Jiangfu for the night, which is really an old godson who has no way, and is ashamed of his in-laws!" ”

Jiang Chong, who was behind, also bent down: "As the eldest brother, I didn't stop him, and I am ashamed to face Lord Bai!" ”

Jiang Shen arched his hand: "As the second brother, I didn't stop it, and I am even more ashamed of Lord Bai!" ”

The row of people at the back of the Jiang family who knew about "the third prince hiding a woman in the room" all saluted Bai De again. As members of the Jiang family, not only did they not stop them, but they were also very happy, they were really ashamed!

Looking at the top of the head in front of him, Bai Dezhong was stunned, and Bai Mengshi was also stunned.

"Last night...... Did Zhuji spend the night in Jiangfu? Bai Dezhong asked in a low voice.

Jiang Xuanjin glanced at him with a cold expression: "Sixiǎo jiě injured her foot in Jiangfu yesterday, and it was difficult to walk for a while, so the junior let her live in the guest house." This matter is not well thought out by the younger generation, and it has nothing to do with the four xiǎo jiě, and I ask the adults to forgive me. ”

What is a habit of stealing, what is not returning home at night and having an affair with someone, it turns out that it is all slander! After everyone heard Jiang Xuanjin finish speaking, their eyes fell on the Bai family's housewife. This time, even the Bai family's own family felt that Bai Meng's behavior this time was really vicious and ridiculous!

Bai Dezhong looked at Jiang Xuanjin with guilt: "So the king was so arrogant yesterday because the old man wronged Zhuji?" ”

With a slightly gloomy face, Jiang Xuanjin said, "Adults think they just wronged her?" ”

Bai Dezhong was slightly stunned: "Otherwise? ”

Glancing at Bai Meng's family, Jiang Xuanjin said to Bai De: "Your wife knocked out half of your own daughter's life, if it wasn't for the juniors who stopped her last night, she would have died if she went down with your ring ruler!" It's good for you to ignore it, and blame her for wronging her, every word and deed, is there anything worthy of Xuan Jin's respect? ”

Bai De's center of gravity was shocked, and he opened his mouth, but he couldn't refute it.

The people of the Jiang family were also frightened, and hurriedly asked him, "What's the matter?" 四xiǎo jiě was injured? ”

Jiang Xuanjin lowered his eyes, covered his emotions and replied: "Life and death are uncertain." ”

Hearing this, Bai Dezhong looked at Bai Mengshi in disbelief, who hurriedly lowered his head and whispered, "I didn't have such a heavy hand." ”

They were all beaten by house slaves.

Unable to greet the others, Bai De walked towards the west courtyard with a heavy step. Mrs. Jiang couldn't sit still, for fear that the daughter-in-law who had come so hard to come would be gone, so she hurriedly followed with crutches.

As soon as he moved, all the people of the Jiang family moved, leaving only Bai Meng and a few Bai family members standing in the hall in a daze.

The group was about to arrive at the west courtyard, but they saw a girl running out of the gate of the west courtyard, running so fast and fast that she fell to the ground with a stumble.

"Lingxiu?" Bai De shouted when he saw it again.

As if he had fallen hard, Lingxiu couldn't get up, he lay on the ground and looked up to see Jiang Xuanjin, and grinned stupidly: "Junshang, xiǎo jiě has survived!" ”

The smile was so bright that Rao is face was dirty, and it seemed to glow. However, the light only lasted for two moments before it faded away, and Lingxiu looked at a clearing in amazement, and suddenly burst into tears.

A night of fear and a night of heart-pounding, all of them were cried out by her, crying sadly, and the hearts of those present were sour.

Jiang Xuanjin looked at her, and the hand she had been holding loosened slightly.

Got through it......

Hearing these four words, everyone's hearts were a little complicated, Bai De looked at the small room in front of him, and finally felt that he really didn't treat Zhuji well, and let her be bullied like this.

He turned his head and said to the group of people behind him: "The room is small, let the gentleman and the old lady go in first, you might as well rest in the side room." ”

So many people go to the doctor, and it also affects the patients. Although everyone wanted to go and see the four xiǎo jiě, the host said so, so they also nodded knowingly.

Jiang Xuanjin entered the wing room, went to the bedside familiarly, and looked down at the face of the person on the bed.

It's still a miserable white face, but faintly, you can feel a trace of life.

Relieved, he glanced at Bai Dezhong next to him, got up and gave up his position. Bai De stepped forward to take a look, and the guilt in his eyes was even stronger.

"I'm not a good father." He said, "I promised her mother to take care of her, but I didn't do it." ”

Old lady Jiang said: "It's not too late to compensate. ”

Bai Dezhong smiled bitterly: "How does the old lady think Bai should compensate?" ”

"Isn't that easy?" The old lady glared, pinched her crutches and pointed at Jiang Xuanjin next to her, "Marrying my daughter to him is the best compensation." ”

“……”

Bai Dezhong was silent, and after the silence, he had to admit: "The old lady is right. He looked at Jiang Xuanjin next to him: "Probably God feels sorry for Zhuji, so she won the favor of the king." Frankly speaking, Bai almost took a copy of the king seriously this morning. Fortunately, fortunately, Bai believed in the good character of the king once. ”

Jiang Xuanjin bowed his head and was silent.

Old lady Jiang said with a smile: "It's good to really participate in him, this kid hasn't been played before, and it's not bad to have an experience." ”

The in-laws were so open-minded, Bai Dezhong was even more grateful, but when he glanced at the weak man on the bed, he asked the doctor with some concern: "Is it really okay?" ”

The doctor smiled tiredly: "The prescription has been prescribed, three times a day, take care of it carefully, and it will be fine." ”

Nodding, Bai Dezhong bowed his hand to Jiang Xuanjin again: "Thank you for saving the little girl's life." ”

Before Jiang Xuanjin could respond, the old lady Jiang next to him shook his head and said, "What is there to thank you for?" If he doesn't save him, he won't have a daughter-in-law! ”

said, and pulled Bai Dezhong out: "Since the in-laws also accept this marriage, then discuss the marriage date in detail, and accept the dowry by the way." ”

Bai Dezhong replied again and again, staggered a few steps and followed him out, but couldn't help but look back again.

In the dark room, Ziyangjun stood quietly beside the bed, his posture was gloomy, just like the back he saw in the court. It's obviously very close to people, but it makes people feel far away.

The main house in the east courtyard.

Bai Xuanji had silently shed tears for half an hour, and Bai Mengshi put ice on his face, his eyes were full of anger.

"She must have used some kind of foxy means, otherwise the king would have taken a fancy to her?" Bai Mengshi said hatefully, and comforted her a few more words, "Don't worry, they only said that they would put Ziyangjun's marriage first, but they didn't say that they would withdraw from your marriage." ”

"I didn't mention it, what's the difference between it and Ming Ming's divorce?" Bai Xuanji wiped her tears, "Besides, even if I don't retreat, I will lower Bai Zhuji when I marry." ”

It makes her happy to have a good marriage, but what makes her even happier is that she can step on the white beads. Now not only is the marriage wavering, but Bai Zhuji has stepped on her in turn, how can she be willing?

As soon as she thought of the playful eyes of her relatives in Fang Cai's family, Bai Xuanji felt hatred in her heart.

Bai Mengshi sighed: "I should have killed her directly, so that even if Ziyangjun wanted to marry, she would not have her life to marry." ”

Hearing this, Bai Xuanji raised her eyes and looked at her.

With a void in his heart, Bai Mengshi hurriedly said: "I'm kidding, if I really beat me to death, I also have to eat in prison." ”

Wiping away her tears, Bai Xuanji said: "If you are killed on the surface, you will definitely have to eat prison food." ”

But what if it's not on the bright side?

Bai Mengshi was stunned for a moment, looked at her eyes, and felt a chill behind her.

The Jiang family and the Bai family discussed the details of the marriage, and then the family said goodbye. Old lady Jiang stepped out of the door, glanced at Jiang Xuanjin, who did not come out with him, and smiled angrily: "You dignified Ziyang Jun, are you going to plug the door upside down?" ”

"I have something to give her back." Jiang Xuanjin said, "When she wakes up, she will leave when she is finished." ”

If you're worried about people, you're worried, and you're looking for a bad excuse to return something. The old lady shook her head when she heard this: "Out of breath!" ”

Jiang Xuanjin turned a deaf ear, watched them leave, and went back to the West Courtyard after saying a few words to Bai De.

"Master." Yu Feng followed behind him and said, "You can sleep first, your eyes are red." ”

Jiang Xuanjin shook his head, sat on the edge of the bed and said, "I didn't go to the early dynasty today, there are a lot of things to deal with, you can make tea for me." ”

Yufeng sighed and took the order.

There were a lot of folds that had just been sent here, Jiang Xuanjin rubbed his eyebrows, and patiently picked up a copy to read locally. When I saw the fifth book, the person on the bed coughed.

Slightly startled, he hurriedly turned around to look, but saw Bai Zhuji's eyes closed tightly, and his lips opened slightly, as if he was reading something. I didn't hear it clearly the first time, but the two words became clear the second time.

She shouted: Father.

Jiang Xuanjin was stunned for a moment, stared at her for a while, and then smiled.

I dreamed that I was a princess, but I made her beautiful!

I was about to reach out and touch her babbling lips, but suddenly there was a scolding from outside: "What person! ”

It was the voice of the wind, Jiang Xuanjin raised his eyebrows, put down the fold and got up to open the door.

Outside the door, Yufeng held tea in one hand and Emei thorn in the other, looking at the other side with wary eyes.

There was a person standing opposite him, who was dressed in a silver silk snow robe and pinched a Nanyang jade bone fan.

"Get out of here!" Lu Jingxing raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were full of anger.
