Chapter 123: The Bai Family Clashes
When there was still some distance from Tianze Hall, Meng Xing quit the carriage. The news that the new Inspector was coming to pay respects to the people who were killed somehow spread the news, and many people gathered around Tianze Hall.
However, most of these people looked indifferent, not paying attention to who was coming, they were more like completing a mission, and were forced to stay here.
Meng Xingci was dressed in an official uniform, and the official uniform of the patrol press was a rich and noble purple. She is already fair-skinned and dressed in a purple official robe, which makes her temperament outstanding and handsome.
She looked solemn, did not squint, and walked slowly towards Tianze Hall.
The onlookers were attracted by her, and they were forced to come, but at this time, they couldn't help but be attracted by her.
A handsome and elegant young man, with a solemn and solemn expression, she walked step by step, like a bright color in the boundless darkness.
Everyone's hearts were suddenly in turmoil, and they looked at her silently, not knowing what she would bring to their lives.
Meng Xingci walked to the door of Tianze Hall, the ruins collapsed, but the gate was intact, with white wreaths piled on both sides.
A middle-aged man dressed in white walked out quickly, he was dignified, had an extraordinary temperament, and was of good birth at a glance.
Song Nian whispered beside Meng Xingci: "He is Bai Weiyi." ”
Bai Weiyi walked quickly in front of Meng Xingci: "Master Meng, there is a loss of welcome, disrespect and disrespect. Hearing that Lord Meng came to worship the people who died today, the grass people prepared in advance and asked the adults to atone for their sins. ”
Meng Xingci's expression was indifferent: "Master Bai is also concerned, but since this house was built by your Bai family, the collapse of the house is inseparable from the Bai family, so the official will not thank you." ”
Bai Weiyi's face changed suddenly, he never expected Meng Xingci to be so faceless, and he would be embarrassed as soon as they met.
He sneered in his heart, he was really young and vigorous, thinking that he would dare to be so unscrupulous with the support of the emperor! He wants her to know who is in charge of Hedong!
Bai Weiyi's expression was respectful, but what he said was not very polite: "Master Meng, my Bai family doesn't dare to admit this." This house has been built, and it has also been accepted by the government, and there is also the seal of the government on the acceptance list. How the house later fell is still uncertain. The imperial court wants to give porridge to repair the bridge, and my Bai family has never refused, I dare not say that my Bai family is a good family, but my Bai family can't afford the responsibility of the collapse of this house! ”
Meng Xingci said lightly: "There is the seal of the government on the acceptance list, but there is also the seal of your Bai family on the quotation on this day." Any materials used can be recorded," After a pause, she looked at Bai Weiyi and sneered: "Master Bai doesn't need to be excited, whoever is responsible, no one can escape." Today, the Sakura officials are here to worship the spirits of the dead, they were not at peace during their lifetime, and after their deaths, the officials will definitely seek justice for them! ”
After Meng Xing finished speaking, he walked in directly past him, and without looking at Bai Weiyi, his face suddenly changed.
Meng Xingci walked into the courtyard, the Bai family had already set up an incense case in the courtyard, and there was an old man and a young and handsome young man next to the incense case.
Meng Xingci knew that these two must be the old men of the Bai family, the young man...... It is probably Bai Zhichen, the very favored concubine of the Bai family.
The old man of the Bai family walked tremblingly in front of Meng Xingci with the help of his grandson on crutches, and then he was about to kneel down.
The old man of the Bai family staggered under his feet, Bai Zhichen hurriedly supported him, and said to Meng Xingci: "Lord Meng, my grandfather is old, his legs and feet are not good, and he has not been out of the house for many years. This time it was for the sake of the people who were killed, so I insisted on coming. It's been standing in the snow for a long time, and it's not an intentional faux pas. ”
Nowadays, people have great respect for the elderly, especially the long-lived elderly, and even if the official position is high, they will not find fault with the etiquette of an old man.
Meng Xingci knew the careful thinking of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Bai family, and she didn't care: "The old man, please be exempt, although the official is an official, he is also a junior, and the old man does not need to be polite." After a pause, she added: "This official has exempted the old man from the ceremony, but he can't make decisions for these undead." The old man remembered these victims in his heart, and he thought that he was also compassionate. ”
Old Man Bai didn't kneel down to her, and Meng Xingci didn't care. However, he had to kneel down to these innocent people who were killed by the Bai family!
Bai Zhichen didn't say that Old Man Bai went out for the sake of these undead, the old man can not worship the young man, but he can't disrespect the dead!
Since Old Man Bai is here today, she can't tolerate him not kneeling!
Old Man Bai's face changed suddenly, and his words had already been spoken, he was too old to go out, and since he had already gone out on the grounds of worship, he could no longer use this as an excuse.
Old Man Bai has lived for such a long time, and he has only knelt down to the ancestors of the Bai family, and now he actually let him kneel a group of untouchables! The old man's emaciated face was distorted.
Bai Yichen was just about to speak, but Meng Xingci glanced at him lightly: "Let's worship the undead first, don't waste time." ”
After Meng Xingci finished speaking, he took the lead in walking over, picked up a stick of incense, bowed solemnly three times, and knelt down.
Old Man Bai has only knelt down to his ancestors, Meng Xingci has one more than him, Meng Xingci has also knelt to the emperor, in addition, this is the second time she has knelt.
But this kneeling, she is for the suffering people, and for the inaction of the officials of the Great Apocalypse court, she must kneel.
Meng Xingci knelt down respectfully, his back straight: "I am the emperor's personal envoy, and I came here this time to give justice to the suffering people." I, Meng Xingci, swear here that I will give justice to all the victims! ”
After Meng Xingci finished speaking, he respectfully kowtowed three times and inserted incense.
She stood up as usual, and the faces of the three grandparents on the side suddenly changed. Meng Xingci blocked their back road this time, and the three of them stepped forward to worship one after another.
Old Man Bai coughed violently, almost coughing out his lungs, but Meng Xingci looked at him coldly until he finished kowtowing three times.
The corners of Meng Xingci's mouth hooked up a sneer, the lives of tens of thousands of people, he only kowtowed three times, and he was really cheap.
Bai Yichen hurriedly helped Old Man Bai up, Meng Xingci looked at Bai Yichen, "I think this is the eldest son of the Bai family, right?" You are responsible for the construction of Tianze Hall this time? ”
Bai Yichen's face suddenly turned red, and he felt humiliated like never before.
Bai Weiyi hurriedly protected his concubine: "If you go back to the adult, he is the second son of the grass people, not the eldest son." ”
Meng Xingci raised his eyebrows, smiling: "Really?" That's the official who misunderstood, the official thought that a century-old scholar like the Bai family was the most important, but he didn't expect it...... It seems that the rules of the Bai family are different from those of other people's families. ”
It was the old man Bai who felt hot at this time.
