Ji Nanjing hurried back to the general's mansion. General Ji and Ji Jinxiu had been waiting anxiously at the door of the mansion for a long time. Seeing that Ji Nanjing came back safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they visited the prime minister's mansion at night.
This kind of thing can be big or small. If someone with intentions really sees it, it will not only be the General's Mansion that will be implicated.
After Ji Nanjing returned home, he first explained Bai Yanqing's situation seriously to his two elders in the family. Next, he will tell the story of meeting the mysterious masked man at Bai Yanqing's place.
Listen to them.
After all, General Ji is a person who is used to big scenes, so he doesn't make much judgment on the small tricks that people in the court always like to use. After all, there are not many officials in the court who don't have their hands involved in these bad things.
Son's.
Now, since someone is eyeing the Bai family, it is natural that the Bai family has something that that person wants to do. As long as that person does not harm Bai Yanqing, General Ji will not mess with him. And he himself, in the court
, as long as you hide your edge, don't show off your skills, and just do your job in a low-key manner, that's all.
Ji Jinxiu's idea is different from General Ji. He believes that this person is not targeting the Bai family, but Bai Yanqing. Now, the draft is about to happen, and everyone knows that the Bai family's legitimate daughter is going to enter the palace to participate in the election, but this person
It seems that he wants to cooperate with the imperial court
It's difficult to actually say that he wants to marry Bai Yanqing. I'm afraid it's something behind the scenes, which is not simple. If you look into it carefully, this matter is more serious than targeting the Bai family. What this person is fighting is the court and the emperor.
It is the imperial power of the entire Chen Kingdom!
However, no matter how speculative and anxious the Ji family was, Bai Yanqing did not take this matter to heart at all!
In Bai Yanqing's view, this masked man is indeed not simple. He can know the affairs of the Bai family and explore the background of the Ji family. These two things alone are enough to prove that this person is unpredictable and extraordinary! But even if
In this way, he did not harm himself,
Isn't it? Even when she was seriously ill, unconscious, and almost in danger of dying, it was he who delivered the medicine and saved her, wasn't it? Just this life-saving grace shows the kindness of his heart.
It’s not that he is someone who doesn’t distinguish between right and wrong and cares little about human life.
Even if he has plans for herself or the Bai family and the Ji family, she has nothing to fear from Bai Yanqing, because she will protect the Bai and Ji families to the death!
This night is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.
The next morning.
At dawn, Bai Yanqing got up. Without disturbing others, she took matters into her own hands. She went to the small kitchen to boil the medicine and drank it. She knew that she was ill these days, and Cai Xing and the others had never had a good rest.
Now that she is feeling better, she wants to share some of the things she can with them.
After drinking the medicine, she used the stove to cook some porridge and stir-fried a few side dishes. After she finished everything, Cai Xing and the others also got up. Seeing the steaming porridge and the fragrant side dishes, Cai Xing and the others got up.
Xing and the others were shocked!
"Miss, you..."
Cai Xing swallowed hard. What surprised her was not that Bai Yanqing had washed her hands and made soup early in the morning and made breakfast for them. What surprised her was that her young lady looked so energetic, and she was obviously in good health!
As for Aunt Zhao, Lian'er and Aunt Li, they were shocked that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion actually made breakfast for several of their servants early in the morning. This had never happened before in the entire Chen Kingdom! How could there be a master?
, the reason for cooking for slaves?
"Look at all of you, what are you doing standing still? Come over and have breakfast!"
Bai Yanqing greeted them warmly, and only then did Cai Xing and the others react. They were busy scrambling to move stools, get bowls and chopsticks...
Nianchu Xiaozhu has not been so lively for a long time! It has not been so lively for a long time!
Bai Yanqing is in good health. Not only Caixing, but also Bai Jingxuan and the entire Bai family are happy! After all, only when Bai Yanqing gets better can those in the Bai family who had a hand in harming her face the real trial!
Bai Jingxuan deliberately did not punish them for the time being, leaving those people in fear all day long. This is more painful than punishing them!
Now that Bai Yanqing is getting better, Bai Jingxuan naturally wants her to handle this matter and these people personally.
Bai Jingxuan's move has two meanings. One is that he wants to see Bai Yanqing's ability in dealing with things, which can also be regarded as training for her. After all, she will enter the palace in the future. If the Bai Palace cannot handle this small matter well, there will be another problem in the future.
How to survive in that deep palace courtyard?
Secondly, he also wanted to test his daughter's feelings, whether it was good or evil, and how to weigh the pros and cons. After all, the people she had to face were her grandmother, her aunt... these people were all her
How the elders should weigh it is up to her!
A few days later.
It happened to be the day when Bai Jingxuan took a rest, so he summoned everyone from the Bai family to the front yard, and ordered people to call Bai Yanqing, so that he wanted to handle the previous matter properly. It was also an explanation to his daughter, and it also made it clear.
, as a father, he wants to protect his daughter’s position.
Although Bai Yanqing knows that Bai Jingxuan intends to repair the relationship between their father and daughter through this matter, the person involved in this matter is Ren, the old lady of the Bai family, Bai Jingxuan's biological mother! If not handled properly, the relationship between father and daughter will be damaged.
Saying that would make the whole government unconvinced by her.
However, since Bai Yanqing dares to come, of course she will not fight an unprepared battle.
Bai Yanqing arrived late, and when she arrived, everyone from the top of the Bai Mansion was present. Cai Xing supported Bai Yanqing and walked over steadily, one step at a time.
Seeing Bai Yanqing's face glowing and her energy better than before, Lai Feiyan's nose was filled with jealousy! Why did she become even more rosy after being ill, while her own appearance was ruined?
You can’t even enter the palace!
"Yan Qing is here!"
Ren stepped forward somewhat flatteringly. She learned from her servants that Bai Jingxuan had left the matter to Bai Yanqing to handle. Ren knew that she and Bai Yanqing had had grudges for many years, so she was a little worried that she would do something unusual.
When the punishment came, I rarely looked worried and greeted him with a smile.
Bai Yanqing smiled slightly, saluted to Ren, then turned around and saluted to Bai Jingxuan and Bai Furong.
He is polite and courteous towards his elders regardless of past grudges. He is a child who understands the general situation.
Bai Jingxuan secretly praised.
Bai Yanqing finished the required ceremony. She turned around leisurely, faced a room full of frightened Bai Mansion servants, and grimaced sternly. Her majesty and momentum were not inferior to Bai Jingxuan's at all.
"Although you have experienced it, you can't help it."
As soon as Bai Yanqing said these words, everyone present knew what she meant by her words. This was a clear sign of beating the Ren family! This was telling everyone that the servants of the Bai Mansion obeyed Bai Yanqing's words.
The old lady of the house ordered me to do these wrong things because I couldn't help myself.
Bai Jingxuan's expression changed on the side.
"As servants of the White House, there is no problem in obeying the master's orders! However, you must distinguish between priorities, right from wrong, and know what you should and should not do! When you encounter something you cannot make a decision about,
For important matters, what you have to do is not to blindly obey, but to weigh the seriousness of the situation and inform the master of the White House, your Prime Minister, in a timely manner!"
Distinguish the priorities... who is the primary and who is the secondary? These words are not only warning the servants of the Bai Mansion, but also warning the Ren family, Bai Furong and Lai Feiyan, mother and daughter. It is warning them that she, Bai Yanqing, is the Bai Yanqing.
The legitimate daughter of the White House! Her father, Bai Jingxuan, is the real owner of the Bai House!
What should be done and what should not be done. Of course, it is also a warning to them!
What is a serious matter? The legitimate daughter of the White House was punished for no reason. This is a big deal! Such a thing was carried out privately without going through the owner of the White House, Bai Jingxuan. Isn't this wrong?
"This is a small punishment but a big warning. The responsibility can be avoided, but the punishment cannot be avoided. Everyone, regardless of their position, will be punished for three months."
As soon as Bai Yanqing said these words, everyone in the Bai family breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was only a monthly penalty, which they could accept compared to the physical pain. After all, if you are really picky, you will have to pay a heavy penalty. People like them have bullied Bai Yanqing before. If they really want to be punished, they can only punish them.
I'm afraid not many people can leave the White House safely.
"As for my grandmother and aunt, my daughter doesn't dare to make the decision without permission or go overboard. It will disturb the seniority. If she is asked about it in the future, she is afraid of hurting the face of her elders. This matter still needs my father's consent. We can discuss it privately.
"
Bai Yanqing turned around, nodded slightly, and said to Bai Jingxuan.
This was said in a very well-structured way. First, because she was a junior, out of filial piety, she could not cross the line and punish her elders. Secondly, she made it clear that she was concerned about the face of her elders and asked for private discussion, which solved everyone's problems.
Embarrassing, it's just like what others say.
What he said made even Bai Jingxuan secretly admire him. He was right about his daughter. She was a child with general knowledge and structure.
Bai Jingxuan then dismissed everyone, leaving only Ren and Bai Furong's mother and daughter.
"Father, according to my daughter's opinion, it is not appropriate for my aunt and others to stay in the White House any longer."
As soon as Bai Yanqing said these words, not only Bai Furong was shocked, but even the Ren family was shocked. The Ren family never expected that Bai Yanqing would dare to drive Bai Furong and the others out of the house!
When Bai Jingxuan heard this, he was also stunned, but he didn't say much, just waiting for what Bai Yanqing would say next.
"First of all, my aunt has not yet separated from the Lai family. She has been living in Baifu for so many years. Naturally, we won't say anything. But what about the Lai family? Once you are married, you will naturally support your husband and raise your children.
, if the husband makes a big mistake, the aunt can go to the official media to ask for a separation. This will be unclear and will damage the reputation of the aunt."
Bai Yanqing saw that Bai Jingxuan didn't stop him, so he continued.
"Secondly, because the sister of the Lai family wanted to run for the palace, she was kept in the mansion to receive the teachings of palace etiquette together. Now that the sister of the Lai family has a disfigured face, the royal family will naturally not want a woman with a disfigured face.
Those who entered the palace. Now that they are adults, it would be inappropriate for them to continue to stay in the White House. If in the future
After finding a good family to marry into, is Baifu considered Lai's sister's natal family or Lai's cousin's family? Should Lai's sister marry from Baifu or Lai's family? Or... the Lai's sisters
How about changing your name and entering the Bai family ancestral hall? Do the Lai family know about all this? And do they agree?"
This statement is reasonable and well-founded, and indeed it is common sense.
After all, it is not appropriate for Bai Furong and her two daughters to live in the Bai Mansion all the time. Not to mention whether there are any objections from the Bai family, it is also unjustifiable for the Lai family.
In the past few years, the Lai family has sent people to pick them up, but Bai Furong was angry, and the Lai family sisters were greedy for the comfort and ease of the Bai Mansion, and refused to go back with the Lai family.
