Chapter 114 The Irritated Villain’s Beloved (9)
Everyone knows that the Duke of Zhen Guo has extraordinary abilities.
Even though he is over fifty years old, Duke Zhen's skills are still among the best in Yuan Kingdom.
If Eunuch Ye followed, the emperor would be dead in the imperial study and no one would know.
The emperor did not dare to let Eunuch Ye leave, and could not withstand Bai Xingzhou's threats, so he had to compromise and let Eunuch Ye wait outside the palace.
"Is Your Majesty afraid? If you are really afraid, you should know what it means when the Emperor's token is issued."
The wooden sign sent to the imperial study room was a small warning.
To be able to sit on the throne of Ninth Five-Year Plan, the emperor is not stupid and knows what the Duke of Zhenguo wants.
"Mr. Zhenguo, I am the Son of Heaven. Once I say something, it is hard to follow. How do you want me to explain it to the people?" How should I explain it to my beloved concubine?
The marriage contract between the Zhenguo Palace and the Liu family was given by the late emperor. No matter how the Liu family operated, marriage was inevitable.
The Duke of Zhen Guo is unwilling to marry. If the Liu family had been attitude earlier, he might have been able to mediate and cancel the engagement. But canceling the engagement now is probably unrealistic.
The emperor coughed a few times and clasped his hands behind his back cautiously, "Mr. Zhenguo, the imperial edict has been issued. I have already announced it to the world. How can you tell me to break your trust and betray everyone in the world?"
"Broken promise?" Bai Xingzhou sneered, playing with a wooden sign in his hand.
The emperor was stunned for a while, and his eyes fell on the table. The wooden sign that was supposed to be under the memorial came into Bai Xingzhou's hands at some point.
The two were far apart, and the emperor's back felt cold and he put away his smile.
"Your Majesty is the most respected person in the world. You really shouldn't break your trust with others."
The emperor's tense heart relaxed a little, and then Bai Xingzhou's words made him raise his voice again.
"However, I apologize for what the Liu family has done to my daughter in recent years. I cannot bear it."
"Oh? What did the Liu family do? I've never heard of it."
Never? Bai Xingzhou sneered in his heart. The Dog Emperor was acting in front of him. At least he hired a few more troupes so that he could learn to imitate.
During the next tea break, Bai Xingzhou detailed several crimes committed by the Liu family and presented them together with the evidence and the names of witnesses.
At the same time, the movement outside the palace did not stop.
Storytellers from all over the capital received an urgent report in the morning and changed all the dramas originally scheduled to be told today to the content of the secret report.
The excitement is no less than a classic show that has been around for hundreds of years.
There are two good plays, but the scripts are different, but they say the same thing.
"It was rumored that the little girl from the Wu family was beautiful, but she never went out because of the disease caused by the disease in her mother's womb. Unexpectedly, her in-laws maliciously smeared her, and found someone to pretend to be a girl from the Wu family every day, offending people everywhere, and giving her the reputation of a shrew...
"
In less than two hours, everyone in the capital knew that a lady from the Wu family had been framed and gained the reputation of a shrew.
Isn't this the person from the Zhenguo Government Office? Many people have made speculations, but there is no evidence to support it. It is really difficult to determine who it is.
Since ancient times, storytellers have the most powerful mouths.
Confusing right and wrong is their specialty. If it is true as they said, Bai Qingzhi was framed, why did the Zhenguo Government remain silent for so long?
There are different opinions, and no one accepts anyone else's theory. They are all speculating on who knows the truth.
"Hey, have you heard that Duke Zhenguo quietly returned to the capital last night and went straight to the palace this morning. His daughter has been scolded in the past few years, and he has not come out to speak for her. What do you think he did in the palace this time?
"
"What else could it be? As a parent, it is natural to arrange for my daughter's marriage. I heard that Bai Qingzhi went to the Yamen a few days ago to ask for someone. She said that the Yamen detained the servant who delivered the letter from Zhen Guogong's Mansion. Where is the Yamen? I'm afraid it was standing upright.
Go in and come out sideways."
"That's right, the Yamen is a place for eating people. How can you go there and ask for people? You won't be able to do so."
The common people talked to each other, and the more people joined in the fun, the more news reached Bai Qingzhi's ears, and the more excited she became.
But now is not the time to be happy. If it were so easy to clear up, I believe the original owner and Bai Xingzhou would have taken action long ago.
[Host, it’s just that the time has not come yet. Bai Xingzhou has a plan. These storytellers are all paid to do things. If they fail, they will continue to smear you tomorrow]
Money can make the world go round, Bai Qingzhi knows.
"Feishuang," Bai Qingzhi found an jade bracelet from the cabinet, "I went to find a shop in the downtown area. Go out the front door and go back through the back door. People will think you look timid. Don't straighten your back."
When the lady spoke, Feishuang obeyed.
Although she didn't understand why the lady asked her to do this, she must have had her own intentions.
Most pawn shops dare not accept items from the Zhenguo Duke's mansion. Many items are gifts from the royal family, and they are all registered in the register.
The waiter called the shopkeeper over, and the shopkeeper asked a lot about the reason for Feishuang.
According to what the lady said, Feishuang followed suit, "Our master was blocked outside the customs and couldn't get in. The lady took all the cash in the house to get through. Now there is not a single copper in the house, so my lady can only sell jewelry to make up for the shortfall."
"This..." The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, then stretched out his fingers towards the bracelet.
The things that came out of the palace were really unusual in their performance, but their pawn shop couldn't collect them and had to confiscate them.
Thinking back carefully, the shopkeeper compromised and asked someone to bring Feishuang money and write a letter of guarantee.
Let's just say that they sold it voluntarily and it was not coercion or inducement from the pawn shop.
Holding the money bag tightly, Feishuang walked out of the pawn shop and headed back home along the route planned by the lady.
"How about it?"
As soon as the back door opened, Bai Qingzhi walked out from behind the rockery, and Feishuang described the situation just now.
"Do many people recognize you? Oh no, are there many people who recognize you?"
Feishuang often goes out to do shopping. People passing by may not recognize her, but the vendors she often visits will recognize her if she is familiar with him.
The maid from the Zhenguo Palace secretly entered the pawn shop, and the news broke, attracting the attention of the whole city.
Even the rich ladies of the noble family who usually ran against Bai Qingzhi also sent people to keep an eye on her, wanting to see Bai Qingzhi's jokes as soon as possible.
It's not a joke. Bai Qingzhi did this not to make these people laugh at her.
It's time for Bai Xingzhou to come back.
It was impossible for the Dog Emperor to leave people for lunch, so Bai Qingzhi asked people to prepare Bai Xingzhou's favorite dishes, kill chickens, and stew chicken soup for Bai Xingzhou to replenish his body.
Talking to the Dog Emperor was really tiring. Bai Xingzhou never expected that his daughter would be so considerate. She was so happy to have a bowl of steaming chicken soup when her butt was still hot when she got home.
"My dear daughter, you should also eat more and see how thin you become."
The chicken legs were torn open and the hot and sour sauce was used to make cold shredded chicken. The sour and spicy appetizer made Bai Xingzhou eat half a bowl of rice.
Bai Qingzhi arranged for Fei Shuang to do something, and Bai Xingzhou heard it mentioned by the housekeeper. If outsiders were not mentioned at the dinner table, Bai Xingzhou would not speak.
Naturally, my daughter has her own reasons for doing this. Can this really solve the misunderstanding?
No, a strong dose of medicine was needed. Bai Xingzhou suddenly had an idea in his mind.
…
The Duke of Zhenguo was pressing on him, and the concubines in the harem were pressing on him. The emperor was more anxious than anyone else. Eunuch Ye sent a message back and forth to several imperial doctors to enter the palace.
"What? Your Majesty will sleep in the imperial study tonight?"
Liu Ruer pinched her thighs and forced herself to calm down.
When did Duke Zhen Guo return to the capital? Why didn't his father and brother notice it? Liu Ru'er really didn't believe it. If Duke Zhen Guo could grow wings and fly into the capital, someone must help him enter the city.
There must be a traitor in the Liu family, or an undercover agent sent by the Duke of Zhenguo.
"No, I have to tell my father." The entire Liu Mansion and even the entire Liu family have to investigate.
It is better to kill by mistake than to let go.
