Mama Rui is very pleased that Bai Hibiscus is so calm, you must know that a girl who has never entered the palace can come in without being frightened, it is already rare, not to mention that the Queen Mother is such an attitude, Bai Hibiscus can still bow her head and kneel on the ground quietly, and she has not even moved her body, this forbearance is a big thing.

No wonder she has survived intact in the hands of the Lu clan until now, although she has a reputation for cowardice outside, she has not lost anything, and with her fame at the Hundred Flowers Feast, this reputation has long since disappeared.

Now there are probably only two kinds of remarks, one is how the eldest lady of the Bai family defeated the princess of Goryeo, who is smart and wise, beautiful and dignified.

The other is the grievances and grievances between the eldest lady of the Bai family and the prince and the young lady of Chu County. Those who support Bai Mu Hibiscus say that the Chu County Royal Mansion is a bully, and those who support the Chu County Royal Mansion say that Bai Mu Hibiscus is a hypocrisy, with a good face and an evil heart.

After a long time, Mama Ning coughed lightly twice and reminded in a low voice: "Queen Mother, Miss Bai has arrived!" ”

The Queen Mother woke up slowly, she seemed to be a little dizzy, and said in a weak voice: "What's the matter?" I'm getting older, and I'm not in good spirits, but after waiting for so long, I fell asleep! ”

Bai Mujian listened, and hurriedly fell to the ground to plead guilty, and said: "The courtiers were rude, delayed the attack, let the Queen Mother wait for a long time, please forgive the Queen Mother!" ”

Only then did the Queen Mother turn around, look at Bai Mujian with her eyes, and then sit up straight, and said, "Raise your head and let the mourning family see!" ”

Only then did Bai Mujian straighten up and raise his head slightly, but he saw that he was still hanging down, and he couldn't look at the Queen Mother, this is the rule, in front of the superior, you can't look directly at it.

The Queen Mother looked at Bai Muhibiscus and nodded slightly, even if she had a bad impression at first, she had to admit that this girl was well-behaved and well-mannered, so that people couldn't fault it.

"You are the young lady of the Ning Guo family?" The Queen Mother still didn't intend to open her mouth to get up, but asked in a slightly deep voice.

Bai Mu Hibiscus lowered his head slightly and replied, "Yes, the courtier's daughter is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Ningguo!" ”

"Well, I've seen your mother, and I've invited the wife to the palace several times, why haven't I seen her take you with you? That young lady seems to be a little younger than you! "The Queen Mother didn't leave any affection when she spoke.

Bai Muhibiscus naturally understood what the Queen Mother meant, and if she showed a little dissatisfaction with her stepmother at this time, it would lead the Queen Mother to use the topic to play.

So he quickly explained respectfully: "That is the sister of the courtier, the mother did not take the courtier into the palace, because the courtier has been weak since childhood, and every time the woman enters the palace is a year ago, the weather is cold, and the mother is afraid that the courtier's body will not be able to eat, so she let the courtier stay at home!" ”

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth, and continued: "I see, it seems that your mother treats you well!" ”

Bai Mujin suddenly remembered what happened in front of the palace of Chu County today, it seems that the Queen Mother already knows everything, including the injury on her forehead, and of course, the matter of her grandmother beating the Lu family.

secretly said in his heart, the queen mother can sit in today's position, it is really not a simple role, and she has set a trap for herself, if you say that the Lu family is not good, it is disrespectful to her mother and regarded as unfilial piety. If the Lu family is good to her, then today the Lu family was slapped in the face and scolded by her grandmother in public, that is, her grandmother was indiscriminate and did not treat her concubine well.

Bai Mu Hibiscus stared for a moment before replying unhurriedly: "The courtiers lost their mothers since they were young, and their mothers raised them, so they have always been grateful. ”

She didn't want to answer a word more, and she didn't say how Lu treated her, but she was still grateful to Lu for her nurturing grace, and she didn't need to say what Lu had done.

The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, the better Bai Mu Hibiscus behaved, the more displeased the Queen Mother became, because it was not easy to scare such a smart girl, how could she force her to accept her "advice"?

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand, and the palace maid who was waiting next to her hurriedly handed over the tea, and the Queen Mother pinched the orchid finger, gently pinched the teacup lid and scraped it twice on the rim of the cup, and then took a sip gently, as if she had practiced countless times.

After drinking, the palace maid hurriedly took the teacup and put it back, and the queen mother raised her voice and said: "Even so, your mother is also considered to be kind to you, how can you trap your parents in injustice?" Don't you know that this is a great sin of unfilial piety? ”

Bai Muhibiscus was not frightened by the Queen Mother's deliberately stern voice, but bowed her head slightly and said, "The courtiers don't dare!" ”

"Don't dare? You made a fool of your parents in the street, your grandmother scolded you, and everyone scolded you, didn't you do it all by yourself? The Queen Mother said coldly.

Bai Mujian raised his chin slightly, looking neither humble nor arrogant, and replied: "The courtiers will never dare to have such thoughts, and please ask the Queen Mother to know it!" ”

The Queen Mother saw that no matter what she said, Bai Muhiscus replied simply in one sentence, and refused to say half a word more, but she couldn't find any mistakes, which made her really annoyed. She has lived most of her life, and she has never seen any kind of person in her cruel palace fighting career.

But such a yellow-haired girl who has not yet reached the end of her life, but under her repeated difficulties, her face did not change, which really surprised and annoyed her. Could it be that he has not had an opponent for too long, so even the most basic majesty is gone?

The Queen Mother was secretly annoyed, but she didn't plan to let go of Bai Hibiscus, and if she didn't force her to bow her head today, then where did she have the prestige of the Queen Mother?

"You don't dare to think about it, but you do! You insist on going to the Chu County Mansion to make trouble and humiliate your parents, isn't this what you did? The Queen Mother's face became stern, no longer calm, and her eyes were dissatisfied with wrinkles, with a deep displeasure.

Bai Muhibiscus bowed down again, and then said: "Please ask the Queen Mother to show her affection!" ”

"What do you have to say? In front of the mourning family, you are not allowed to have the slightest lie, and don't try to act for the mourning family! The Queen Mother didn't wait for her to say, so she warned first.

Bai Mujin hurriedly said: "The courtiers don't dare, the courtiers guarantee that every word is the truth, if there is the slightest falsehood, but it is up to the Queen Mother to deal with it!" ”

The Queen Mother glanced at her coldly before saying, "Let's listen to you!" ”

Bai Mujin showed a look of humiliation at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Today's incident is indeed because of the courtiers, and the courtiers are not going to the Chu County Mansion to make trouble, but to go to the Chu County Mansion to seek justice and innocence!" ”

The Queen Mother's eyes were cold, and she said angrily: "You didn't go to make trouble, why did you gather so many people, and why did you encourage the people to make trouble?" ”

Bai Muhibiscus knew that the Queen Mother had made up her mind to intimidate herself, and there was naturally only one purpose, that is, to make her choose to be silent, to let this matter go over gently, and to "offset the merits and demerits", not only to block Mrs. Lu's mouth, but also to make her grateful for the Queen Mother's kindness.

It's a pity that she Bai Muhibiscus dares to argue with the Chu County Palace, so she is not afraid that the queen mother, the backer, will support her behind. Feng Ziling didn't get the right words, which means that the Queen Mother also knows who is at fault.

Bai Mujian pretended to be frightened and said: "The Queen Mother Mingjian, the courtiers are wronged!" ”

The queen mother's anger that was eager to explode seemed to hit the soft cotton, and it didn't work at all, and Bai Hibiscus still refused to say a word, neither contradicting nor justifying, and insisted that he was innocent.

The anger in the queen mother's heart was also squeezed out, and her eyes became more and more unkind when she looked at Bai Mujian, and her voice became colder and colder: "Wronged? Don't you admit that you are making trouble in front of the palace of Chu County? Didn't you encourage the people to speak for you and denounce the Chu County Palace? ”

Bai Mujin was still indifferent, only made a sincere and frightened look, and said in a loud voice: "The courtiers don't dare, the courtiers just want to get a clean slate for themselves!" ”

The Queen Mother just wanted to avoid this topic, so she thought about the crime of Bai Mujian gathering people to make trouble, this is not a small crime, if it is really implemented, it is possible to raid the family and destroy the family.

Gathering a crowd to make trouble, at worst, is an attempt to rebel and disrespect the royal family, in the end, this crime can be extended to many absolute capital crimes!

"No matter what your purpose is, you shouldn't gather people to make trouble, the king of Chu County is the emperor himself, representing the face of the royal family, you make trouble in front of the palace of Chu County, that is disrespecting the emperor, can you be guilty of this?"

Bai Mujian only sneered in her heart, the Queen Mother is just like this, she wants to bite this charge, then she doesn't need to continue to pretend to be a grandson.

Bai Mu Hibiscus said without changing his color and heartbeat: "Please Queen Mother Mingjian, first, the courtiers did not gather the crowd, those people were all passing by, watching the excitement, it has nothing to do with the courtiers, when the courtiers arrived, there were already a lot of people." Second, the theory of making trouble is even more wrongful, when the courtiers went, they saw that their parents were driven away and beaten by the generals of the Chu County Palace, but they just went to appease their parents and leave. Third, when the courtiers went to the gate of the palace, before they could say a word, they were shouted and beaten to death by Miss Feng, and they were pushed to the ground several times in succession, and even whipped. Fourth, the princess of Chu County came out, and the courtiers also respectfully begged the princess to give the courtiers justice, and there was no disrespect in the slightest, the princess of Chu County refused to pay attention to the courtiers' requests, and also said that the courtiers fell to the ground, tore old wounds, and fainted, and the courtiers didn't know what happened after that! From beginning to end, the courtiers never made trouble, nor did they disrespect the Chu County Palace! ”

The queen mother was about to say something, Bai Muhibiscus took a breath, and then said: "If you say that you don't respect the emperor, then Miss Feng, the prince of Chu County, with a white body, actually ordered the family general to beat and drive away the courtier's parents, and injured the courtier's father's leg. ”

"You...... You...... How bold you are, you dare to question the mourning family? The Queen Mother was blushed by Bai Hibiscus's words, but her tone was tepid, and every sentence was true, from beginning to end, there was no disrespectful words.

Bai Muhibiscus lowered his head and said in a calm voice: "The courtiers don't dare, the courtiers just have doubts, please forgive the Queen Mother!" ”

"What if the mourners don't forgive you for your sins?" The queen mother said that she couldn't say that Bai Muhibiscus would simply suppress people with her power, anyway, in Tianyuan, even the emperor had to look at her face, a little yellow-haired girl, she dared to argue with herself, she was simply tired.
