Little Wife Treasure [Rebirth]

Yesterday I was listening to the matter of the Changping uncle's mansion as a gossip, but I didn't expect to be told by Xie Lin himself in the blink of an eye today...

Uncle Changping died.

Bai Guo felt a little unreal, and the momentary feelings of astonishment and absurdity in his heart were far greater than the sadness of his biological father's death.

Speaking of which, although he is Uncle Changping's legitimate son, since his biological mother passed away, he has been confined in the backyard by his stepmother, and he rarely interacts with Uncle Changping before, let alone the family relationship between father and son. What emerges is just a sense of sadness for the sudden death of an acquaintance. There is sadness, but nothing more.

Xie Lin quietly watched the changes in the young man's expression after hearing the news, and after seeing the distressing confusion in Bai Guo's eyes, he put his palm on his back, pressed the man in his arms to comfort him, and lowered his voice. Comforting voice: "If you feel uncomfortable, cry."

Bai Guo was a little dazed at first, he buried himself in Xie Lin's shoulders without struggling, lowered his brows and eyes, and said sullenly: "Your Highness, no need, I'm fine..."

"Shhh." Xie Lin lowered his head and whispered in Bai Guo's ear, "Be good."

The rain falling outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, and the water droplets splashed on the stone road, and circles of ripples slowly spread outwards. A gust of wind blew by, and the rain was engulfed in soil and grass clippings.Prince Jing Youquan, the official in charge of Prince Jing's Mansion, stood under the eaves of the main courtyard and listened quietly to the movement in the main house. When the voice of the prince and the concubine gradually faded away, he finally couldn't help but let out a small breath, rubbed his hands, and then Looking up into the distance, I just feel that the day is getting colder and colder.

Although Changping Bo's Mansion is a noble mansion with little real power and is not valued by the emperor, it can't hold back the little monsters in the temple, and the pickles are leaking out one by one, which is even more contemptible in the eyes of outsiders.Wang Youquan was thinking about the sudden disappearance of Uncle Changping this time, so the uncle's mansion might not be peaceful and peaceful, not to mention the concubine and aunt who have not yet been found in the uncle's mansion, but just the first month of adoption, who is still a naive, immature little son, Mrs. Uncle Changping is about to pinch her to death.

Thinking of this, Wang Youquan sighed, and only sent the maid who was serving in the main courtyard to the small kitchen to fetch the hot cakes that were simmering on the stove, and when the prince in the room called for someone, they would be ready to bring them in at any time.

It's just that this time he thought about it, the pastry was useless, and Bai Guo fell asleep slowly in Xie Lin's arms. Before going to sleep, his eyes were red, but he didn't shed any tears.

Seeing that Bai Guo looked stable, Xie Lin stroked his hair, and when he was sound asleep, he put him on the couch, went to the outer room and called Wang Youquan in.

"Your Highness." Wang Youquan lowered his eyes and stood respectfully in front of Xie Lin.

Xie Lin frowned and looked at the rain curtain outside the house, and said in a deep voice: "There is a funeral in the uncle's house in Changping these few days, you should prepare paper money and go there, just say that the princess is pregnant now, it's inconvenient to do things, and it's inconvenient to treat uncle On the first seven days of burial, the king and his wife will go to worship."

Wang Youquan nodded in agreement.

Xie Lin said again: "In addition, no matter what miscellaneous incidents have occurred in the Changping uncle's mansion in the past few days, there is no need to let the princess know."

On the other side, inside Changping Bo's Mansion.

Uncle Changping’s encounter was not sudden. Although He did not expect that man to be so unbearable, and although he regretted that he could not be more ruthless to the man before he was alive, on the surface, he still did enough to mourn the loss of his husband. He fainted for a while with the close servant Yu Zhi, and after waking up, he covered his face and asked someone to pick off all the colorful things in the house, hang a white flag on the gate plaque, and decorate the mourning hall.

She changed into plain clothes, her cheeks were very pale after removing makeup, and she knelt down beside Uncle Chang Ping who had already been placed in the coffin under the support of Yu Zhi and the eyes of everyone, her crying was mixed with endless resentment.

The eldest son Bai Xingyi, who had just been adopted, knelt beside He Shi, and said worriedly, "Mother, don't cry to death. Now that father is gone, everyone in the uncle's house still has to rely on mother to take care of him...and if father is still alive, he must I can't bear to see my mother so sad."

He supported the coffin and held Bai Xingyi's hand: "Son, you have a heart, hurry up and give your father a few more kowtows."

Taking advantage of the situation, Bai Xingyi kowtowed ten times to Uncle Chang Ping very earnestly, and when he raised his head again, his forehead was already bright red, which was obviously worn away by the gravel and sand on the ground.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly wept and hugged Bai Xing into his arms, crying loudly: "My poor husband!"

Bai Xingyi's forehead hurt a little from being covered, but he didn't dare to push away He Shi who was holding him. He could only wait for He Shi's crying to subside before Bai Xingyi shook his head and left He Shi's embrace a little dizzily.

But unexpectedly, when Fang Fang raised his head, the servants around him turned pale with shock: "Madam! Your Majesty!"

Bai Xingyi was startled, looked down and saw He's chest was dyed bright red, he touched his stinging forehead, his eyes went dark, and then he lost consciousness.

After he fell to the ground, Mrs. He seemed to be frightened, and then rushed to his side and said, "My son, my son?! Come quickly!! Call the imperial doctor!"

Something happened to the eldest son of the Changping uncle's mansion, and the people in the house no longer cared about the deceased Changping uncle in the mourning hall. Only a few people were left to keep the candles burning in the mourning hall, and the rest of the attention was shifted to the uncle who decided. On the future son of the family.

Mrs. He also seemed to have forgotten her husband who had just passed away in her desperation, and was only supported by her maid to sit on the embroidered pier, guarding Bai Xingyi's side anxiously and sadly.

The imperial doctor came over in a hurry with a medicine box in hand, and he didn't dare to worry too much. Seeing that Xiao Shizi only had some flesh wounds on his forehead, and he was dizzy due to sudden excessive blood loss, he was relieved from the bottom of his heart. Anxious Mrs. He explained a few words, prescribed some medicines and helped Mrs. He say a few comforting words to reassure Mrs. He, and then left the gate of the uncle's mansion.

His walk to Changping Bo's mansion has long attracted the attention of the aristocratic families in the capital. Along the way, the young servants of the east family and the maids of the west family all came over to get a few words out of his mouth and look at Uncle Changping. What is the current situation of the government.

The imperial doctor had nothing to hide, he just told the few servants who came to ask about the fact that Xiao Shizi was filial to Uncle Chang Ping, and that he smashed his head with too much force when he worshiped the uncle in the mourning hall.

Those servants heard that it was not a big deal, so they all returned disappointed, and went back to each house to report the news and gossip with the mistress.

A few days passed like this, and the mourning hall of Uncle Chang Ping was deserted and deserted. Except for a few juniors from the family who came to cry, the other side of the He family needed to watch carefully by Xiaoshizi, who probably lost his forehead due to excessive blood loss. The gauze-covered appearance was particularly pitiful, and the clan elder saw him as if he was about to faint when the wind blew, so he only drove the mother and son back to the house, and called the younger generation of the side branch to stand guard in front of the mourning hall. with.

The people who came to cry from the side branch had a lot of reluctance in their hearts, but because the side branch was born by clinging to the direct line, they could only give up after scolding He's mother and son from the bottom of their hearts.

In a blink of an eye, it was the first seven.

The members of the Bai clan who came to attend the funeral gathered in the uncle's mansion early on, wearing hemp and filial piety, wailing and weeping all the way around the gate of the mansion.

Xie Lin got out of the car, turned around and carefully helped Bai Guo down, both of them were dressed in plain clothes, not a single trace of flowers or greens on their bodies, the concierge of the uncle's mansion saw the two coming, hurriedly reported to the mansion and left.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Bai Guo has stepped back into the Changping Uncle Mansion after marrying into Prince Jing’s Mansion. After a short year, it seems that it has been a long time. Standing in front of the Changping Uncle Mansion, everything Many things are right and wrong with emotion.

Because of Xie Lin's identity, the two of them were taken to the mourning hall after they entered Uncle Changping's mansion. Since they are princesses, Bai Guo only needs to offer a few sticks of incense for Uncle Changping, and it will fulfill the unfinished business of both of them. Father and son affection.

Kneeling on the brazier burning paper money, Mrs. He secretly looked coldly at this lucky married son, his eyes were icy cold.

The little prince Bai Xingyi stood guard in front of the spirit, and couldn't help but look at his nominal direct brother.

Bai Guo respected Xianghuo and found Bai Xingyi who was peeking at him. He glanced at him curiously, not wanting Bai Xingyi to notice his gaze, and turned his head to the side in embarrassment.

The gauze on the child's forehead hadn't been removed, his face was already as pale as paper, but today he was dressed in sackcloth and mourning, which made him look even more adorable.

Bai Guo couldn't help being a little soft-hearted, and smiled at Bai Xingyi friendly from an angle that everyone couldn't see.

Speaking of which, Bai Yi and Bai Yuwei, who married into Gu's mansion today, also accompanied Gu Zixiu to the uncle's mansion. Both of them have changed a lot from their appearance before they left the mansion. He also took the eldest son of the concubine by his side, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had a good life in Gu's mansion, but as for Gu Yuwei who married into Gu's mansion as a concubine, her haggard face was almost unrecognizable.

After Gu Yuwei gave birth to a child, her body became uncontrollably obese. How could she retain Gu Zixiu's favor after losing her beauty?Men are inherently superficial, compared to the still handsome and handsome married couple, the old vows of eternal love are nothing but lies.

"Mother." Bai Yi heard the sad news of his younger brother's early death in the Gu residence, but unfortunately the younger brother has never grown up, and even the genealogy of the uncle's residence is not available, so he can only suppress the sadness in his heart.When he saw Mrs. He today, he couldn't help feeling sad, the mother and son hugged their heads and cried more deeply than ever.

Bai Yuwei knelt in front of the cold mourning hall. She was a concubine and a concubine of the Gu family. To have the face to come back to pay homage to her father would be regarded as a kindness from the Gu family in the eyes of outsiders. The reason for the worship, compared to the ginkgo that had already been carefully supported by the servants around him, and Bai Yi who sat on the futon and burned paper money in the basin after crying with He, only his knees became numb, but Still no one cares.

She hated at this moment, hated her humble background, hated Li Shi for not being able to defeat He Shi, hated Gu Lang for being ruthless, hated Bai Yi for taking her child away.

There was unstoppable hatred in her eyes, Bai Yuwei didn't dare to look up at all.

But Bai Yi will not let go of any chance to suppress her, especially today there are so many people, almost all the elders of the Bai family are present, he changed his mind, pretending to be surprised and asked casually: "Today is Daddy's first seven, Bai Ke... or never came back?"

It is a well-known secret among the people in the capital that the eldest son of the Changping uncle's mansion ran away from the uncle's mansion with his aunt. It is said that the two of them escaped from the mansion because they were oppressed by the aunt's mother, but some people also said that it was Mrs. Li who did it. To my bad conscience, the youngest son under the wife's knee was killed by her. In short, there are different opinions.

But the reason why this matter is called a secret is because the Changping Bofu has covered up this matter and never brought it up in the open.

When Bai Yi said a word, everyone present had to look at each other in dismay. He frowned subconsciously, but quickly let go.

She is just a concubine who can't make waves. Uncle Changping passed away, and the young son was firmly in her hands. Today, the He family is the only mistress in the uncle's mansion, controlling hundreds of households in the uncle's mansion. the lifeblood of a person.

Wanting to understand this, He covered her face slightly and made a somewhat ugly expression, making it look like she had expressed great dissatisfaction as soon as she heard the bastard's name.

Bai Yi stared at Bai Yuwei, and said: "The bastard is the bastard, but because of some small conflicts in the house, he didn't even have the heart to look at his father for the last time?"

Some elders of the Bai clan inevitably expressed dissatisfaction: "This kind of unfaithful, unrighteous and unfilial person should be expelled from the Bai clan's genealogy!"

Bai Yuwei only felt that everyone's eyes were on her, most of them were contemptuous, thinking that she and Bai Ke were siblings, but Bai Ke and Li Shi both escaped from the Changping uncle's mansion, leaving her alone to marry her. A woman who is a married woman, bears all kinds of gazes cast by everyone.

"Hmph, in my opinion, it's not bad that it came out of a mother's womb. My brother is unfilial, and my sister is even more shameless." The sister-in-law of He's natal family couldn't help standing up at this time and making sarcastic remarks, "We and Master Gu The family was originally a good marriage, but it was because of this concubine that the house was in a state of restlessness last year, and it was actually fighting for favor with my own brother..."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Zixiu couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and he also remembered what happened last year.At that time, the Gu family made a marriage contract with the Bai family, but he was fascinated by Bai Yuwei...

Thinking about it now, when Gu Zixiu looked at the yellow-faced woman kneeling not far away, he couldn't remember Bai Yuwei's appearance at that time.

Bai Yi was always paying attention to Gu Zixiu's expression, and seeing him in a trance, he couldn't help but proudly said, "It's all in the past, so Auntie doesn't need to mention it, besides, I'm in the Gu family now, my parents-in-law are kind, my husband loves me, and my concubine sister is helping me. I don't care that my concubine sister fought with me back then..."

Bai Yuwei gritted her teeth, but she was living under the eaves, and now she had to rely on her white face to live in the backyard. She couldn't help agreeing stiffly: "It's the mistress who is generous and doesn't care about the past with my concubine. I am very grateful."

Bai Yi curled her lips, and suddenly felt a little boring for Bai Yuwei's obedience.

As if it was a small episode, the focus of everyone's crusade was still on Bai Ke, and the reputation of unfilial piety weighed on him, which made He very satisfied.

Emperor Jin and Yuan emphasized filial piety, and since Bai Ke still wanted to take part in the imperial examination, he must not bear the stigma on him.The He family was afraid of Bai Ke's escape, all fearing that if he became famous in the imperial examination, he would never be able to control him in the future, and would even turn back against the uncle's house...

But right now, He Shi squinted his eyes, and Bai Ke's reputation was ruined, that would be his last way out, and there would be no threat to him.

Just when everyone was criticizing Bai Ke, the eldest son, for his disloyalty and disfilial piety, a servant from the uncle's mansion ran into the mourning hall in a panic, knelt on the ground, pointed to the outside of the hall and said, "Ma'am, outside... Master Bai Ke outside is back!"

"came back?"

"Bai Ke is back?"

"This……"

Everyone in the mourning hall looked at each other, and He's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Since the eldest son is back, why didn't he come in to pay homage to the uncle?! Could it be that you still want me to invite him in?"

The young man kowtowed to Mrs. He twice, probably because he was so shocked, he stumbled and said, "Master Bai Ke...he came in from outside the uncle's mansion by kneeling all the way, and he performed three kneeling and nine kowtows. Young Master Bai Ke only arrived at the outer courtyard when he came over..."

"Kneeling three times and knocking nine times?" He's tone faltered, and there was some disbelief in his words.

Everyone in the mourning hall also showed surprised expressions, and the juniors in charge of crying spirits didn't hold back their voices, and subconsciously looked outside the mourning hall.

"Master Bai Ke, what does this mean?"

"He...huh, hypocritical!"

All the people who had just scolded Bai Ke for being unfilial all turned black. They were taken aback by Bai Ke's sudden appearance and such a big gift, but they couldn't help but sneer.

Bai Guo listened to the buzzing conversation in the mourning hall, and her eyes also fell outside the mourning hall.

If it is said that there are people who can be called Bai Guo in the huge uncle's house and have some affection, then only Zhao Ji and Bai Ke are left. After Zhao Ji was recognized as a righteous sister by her uncle Wei Xizhou, Wei Liangyin also told herself many times However, with the protection of the General's Mansion, Mrs. He didn't dare to provoke her again.Today is Botou Seventh in Changping. Although Zhao Ji is also dressed in white mourning clothes, she looks good from the looks of her face.

The two met each other in the mourning hall, looked at each other and then gave up, and judging by He's attitude towards Zhao Ji, he avoided it as much as he could, and he didn't deliberately make trouble for her, which made Bai Guo feel relieved.

But Bai Ke and Zhao Ji are different.

Bai Guo and Bai Ke had very little acquaintance, except for the first year when Bai Yi got married, the two had contact for a period of time, and they have never seen each other since then.As for Bai Ke, a concubine, he lived with his aunt in the concubine's mansion, but fortunately he was famous and devoted himself to studying, so he didn't spend many days in the uncle's mansion all year round.

If He's son-in-law had never passed away, although Bai Ke was a bit of an eyesore in He's eyes, he would not regard him as a thorn in his side that must be removed.But the bad thing is that He's son-in-law died early, Uncle Changping lost that ability, and as the only male in the uncle's house, Bai Ke became the only person who could succeed the eldest son. This point hit He's sore spot, and it was absolutely unbearable for He.

Later, Bai Ke's mother and son were forced out of the uncle's mansion. Those who watched coldly understood the twists and turns, and also knew that Bai Ke's mother and son had just suffered an indiscriminate disaster caused by the great changes in the mansion, and they were extremely wronged.

But what about this?

It's just two concubines who are completely worthless, and it's not worth the effort of others to meddle in their own affairs.

Bai Guo also understood this point, so it was inevitable that she was a little worried for Bai Ke.He heard about what happened in the uncle's mansion from the mother around him before, and he thought it was just a gossip to pass the time. He felt that since Bai Ke had fled the uncle's mansion with Aunt Li and went incognito, he should act in a low-key manner. Fighting back from a desperate situation, he won a good ranking in the scientific examination next month.

If he can win the first class and have an official position, then he will have to think twice about any small tricks he wants to do.

But who knew that Uncle Changping was in such a hurry?

Bai Ke is a concubine, and his father has just lost his life, so he needs to keep his filial piety for a year. In this way... until the next exam, I don't know how many years it will take!

Bai Guo frowned slowly, and leaned out of the mourning hall a little more.

Xie Lin was afraid that he would be cold, so he called Wang Youquan to bring him a cloak, and tied it up for him: "Worried about that bastard?"

Bai Guo was slightly stunned for a moment, and then slowly said: "Before I entered Prince Jing's mansion, although I was the son-in-law of the mansion, I only had a name in vain, and I was not familiar with Bai Ke, but he never bullied me... ...The concubine is different from the concubine. He was oppressed by his wife, and he hardly had a bright future except for passing the scientific examination. Thinking about how he was scolded by the uncle's family today, how is it similar to my experience that day? Most of them are at the feet of others A stumbling block that stands in the way of others will be ground out of character and dignity, and together they will be crushed into the dust of the ground.”

He almost never said such words to Xie Lin, but because of his emotions today, he said it suddenly.

After finishing speaking, Bai Guo subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Xie Lin, and said shyly, "Does your Highness think... I just said those words as if they were caring market people?"

Xie Lin raised his hand, with a faint smile on his face, he said in a deep voice: "Since you have resentment towards this Changping uncle's mansion, this king will flatten this place for you, okay?"

Bai Guo was taken aback by his sudden words: "Your Highness?"

Xie Lin lowered his eyes, his expression didn't look like he was joking.

It seemed that he really wanted to express the unspeakable anger in his heart for him.

Just when Bai Guo was startled, there was a sudden commotion in front of the mourning hall, and the people who were guarding the door and looking out pushed back a few steps to make way for a wide path in the middle, A plain-clothed figure appeared in front of him, knelt down on both knees, bowed down, and then moved forward with his knees bent——

There was a white bandage on his forehead, but it was soaked in bright red at this time, and the skin under his palms was also worn out by sand and stones, and the skin was bleeding.

"The child is not filial, and he failed to fulfill his filial piety before his father was alive." Bai Ke bowed all the way to the mourning hall in the silent silence. Although he was in a mess, he did every bow carefully and unambiguously.

Standing in front of the gate of the mourning hall, He looked down at the young man kneeling in front of the gate, feeling a sudden surge of malice in his heart.

Bai Ke raised his head, and when he saw the person blocking the way in front of him, his eyes became clear. Before He could speak, he called out first: "Mother."

He sneered from the bottom of his heart, but on his face, he only pretended to have a regretful expression of misjudging Bai Ke's personality, and said in a faint voice, "I can't afford to call you mother."

Bai Ke lowered his eyes and smiled wryly: "Could it be that mother is really going to have a fit on this day and her son won't be successful? I think my father's spirit is in the sky..."

"You unfilial bastard, why do you have the face to mention your father?" Bai stood up in response to the complaint, pointed at Bai Ke and said, "Father didn't see you before and after his death, and he is hypocritical today!"

With a pale face, Bai Ke raised his eyes to look directly at Bai Yi: "If it's a hypocrisy for me to bow down to my father, then what are you?"

Bai Yi said angrily: "...you!"

His words just hit Bai Yi's pain point. Today in the mourning hall, Bai Yi and Bai Guobiao had a sigh of relief. Both of them are married sons of the uncle's house. They have the same status, but they are married in life. Afterwards, earth-shaking changes took place.Bai Guo is the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and King Jing is always behind her, so he doesn't even have to do a heavy gift, but he still has to bow to the spirit card...

Perhaps it was due to comparisons, so after offering incense to Uncle Changping, Bai Yi only kowtowed three times, and used dizziness to avoid the following kowtows.

He is a married son, and in order to maintain the previous relationship with his in-laws, the family only half-opened and half-closed his current whereabouts in the trough. He also feels sorry for himself, the only remaining parent and child, and does not want him to suffer. He even pulled the man by his side, told him to sit on the futon and burn the paper, and talked to himself.

If there is no comparison, today's matter is nothing, but a Bai Ke ran out, kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times, and knelt all the way in from the main gate of the uncle's mansion, which can be said to be a filial son.

How can He Shi and Bai Yi endure this?

At this time, Bai Yuwei also saw that the situation had changed. The people who had called Bai Ke's unfilial son Bai Yanlang fell silent, and now they couldn't even say a bad word.

"Brother!" Bai Yuwei rolled her eyes, cried twice, crawled to Bai Ke's side on her knees, hugged him and wailed, "Brother, father is gone! Daddy is gone!"

Bai Ke was shaken by her eyes, and his mind was buzzing.Subconsciously, Bai Ke suddenly hugged Bai Yuwei in front of him, covered her forehead, and supported the ground with one hand.

Bai Yuwei was pushed to sit on the side, and was stunned for two seconds, a look of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she saw Bai Ke's uncomfortable posture, so she pushed her past again.It's just that she learned to be smart this time, and she didn't touch Bai Ke at all, and pretended to be anxious and said, "Brother, how are you?"

Bai Ke covered his head, speechless.

"Are you okay?" Suddenly, a brocade handkerchief appeared in front of his eyes, and the familiar and slightly concerned voice sounded familiar, "Hurry up and call the imperial doctor."

It's ginkgo.

Bai Ke thought in a daze that the whole person almost couldn't hold on and fell to the ground. Fortunately, the servant next to Baiguo was quick and quick to support him, and then, under the gaze of his master, he helped him onto the futon beside him. .

"Thank you." Bai Ke murmured weakly.

But Bai Guo shook his head beside him: "No, don't talk, keep your spirits up, so that the imperial doctor will come to bandage you."

As Princess Jing, Bai Guo has some weight in the mourning hall. When he spoke, his voice was loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone in the mourning hall. Even if Bai Yi wanted to trouble Bai Ke, he could only secretly stop.

He squinted and looked at it, not knowing what his plan was, but he didn't make things difficult for Bai Ke anymore.

The time for Uncle Chang Ping's burial was an auspicious time calculated by the palace staff in advance, and the imperial doctor had just come to bandage Bai Ke, and it was the time.Bai Xing moved himself as the eldest son, so he had to support Uncle Changping's coffin, and He's wives had to cry along with him, but the married heirs didn't have to.

Bai Ke rested his energy for a while, and when he saw the coffin set off, although he was still a little weak, he still followed firmly.

Bai Guo frowned, staying in the uncle's residence, really worried about him.

But fortunately, all the way was safe and sound, when everyone came back, Bai Kesui was at the end of the line, and his face looked very ugly, but he persisted anyway.

The family friends who came to pay homage to Uncle Changping have left at this time, leaving only the people in the Uncle Chang's residence and the elders of the Bai clan.

At this time, the He family began to ask questions about the crime.She counted Li Shi's crimes for persecuting her own son-in-law, and then revealed the fact that Li Shi and Bai Ke escaped from the uncle's house privately, and she was about to convict them both.

Unexpectedly, when she questioned Bai Ke about Li's whereabouts, but Bai Ke didn't say a word to her, Xie Lin, who had been acting as a bystander, spoke up.

He raised the teacup in his hand, and said in a neutral tone, "Ma'am, the government also needs to look at the evidence. You only said that Mrs. Li harmed your son-in-law, so what about the evidence?"

He had long thought that King Jing might speak for this little bastard, Bai Ke, so he pulled up his face and smirked, "Of course I have the evidence for what Your Highness said."

Xie Lin nodded: "Since there is evidence, it's easy to deal with. The Bo's Mansion and my Prince Jing's Mansion are considered in-laws after all. They are relatives of the emperor. The concubine made a mistake. Murdering the uncle's concubine is a big case. The evidence should be submitted to the clan mansion. Ask the Clan Mansion to interrogate you carefully."

However, He's face froze: "Your Highness said something serious, why bother? Li is just a lowly concubine, how can I find trouble with the adults of the clan's family?"

Xie Lin raised his eyes lightly and said: "Although she is a mere concubine, Madam has no reason to directly use lynching."

"The state owns the laws of the state, and the family has its own rules... This is just a family matter of the uncle's house." Li said reluctantly.

Bai Guo said: "In the family rules of the uncle's house, there is absolutely no casual killing...Madam is unwilling to submit Mrs. Li to the clan's house, but is she guilty?"

What he said was straightforward, He's eyes turned hard, but he kept his expression unchanged, and quickly said: "No."

Bai Guo said: "Then follow the procedures and submit Aunt Li to the Clan Mansion for trial."

Bai Ke naturally affirmed that Aunt Li had never done anything cruel to the youngest son of the He family, and her expression was extremely calm, and said in cooperation: "If Madam agrees, Auntie will naturally cooperate with the review... If Auntie has cleared up her grievances, please ask Madam to change her." Auntie has a clean reputation."

He's chest felt tight, and he was almost too angry to speak.

When the elders of the Bai clan heard the words, they also thought it was appropriate, but someone still forced Aunt Li and Bai Ke to leave the mansion without authorization and said that they should be punished, otherwise it would be a real violation of the rules.

But Bai Ke said: "If I hadn't returned home in time that day, my aunt would have been strangled to death by the nanny beside my wife... Madam has identified my aunt as the murderer of my younger brother, and hates my aunt so much, what will happen to me and my aunt?" Dare to continue to stay in the mansion? I have to escape out of the mansion in a hurry, and live the days of incognito and wandering around."

The Bai clan had a fierce face but had nothing to say.

Xie Lin glanced at Bai Ke, and said calmly: "Since Madam did something wrong at the beginning, now both parties should not pursue it. Uncle Changping just left, and the young son is still underage, Madam has to take good care of him... ..."

He's heart tightened, and he hurriedly looked at Bai Xingyi.

Bai Xingyi's face was blank, and when His Highness Jing Wang mentioned him, he was at a loss and wanted to stand up and salute.

Seeing that he was in a daze, Bai Guo couldn't help curling her lips, but she didn't have any ill feeling towards this young son who had just adopted him.

But Bai felt that his mother was at a disadvantage, and wanted to say a few words for He Shi, but Gu Zixiu stopped him and stared at her.On the side, Bai Yuwei had a good time watching the play, but she was happy to see He Shi was hit by Jing Wang and Bai Guo, but Bai Yi squinted her eyes, already thinking in her heart how to deal with this dishonest person after returning home The concubine is here.

The incident came to an end when Li voluntarily went to the clan's residence for interrogation. When the official detaining her took her away from a farmhouse in the suburbs of Beijing, Li learned of Uncle Changping's death and what his son had done on the day that Uncle Changping was buried. thing.

This woman, who has been fighting for favor all her life, learned that Uncle Chang Ping had passed away. The feeling of disappointment in her expression did not seem to be fake, and she also became even more anxious when she heard that Bai Ke had smashed her head. Bai Ke is now recovering from his wounds in the uncle's mansion, and everything is fine, so he is relieved to be taken back to the capital by an official.

The ability of the Clan Mansion to handle cases has always been top-notch, and Li Qingbai was returned in less than seven days.

When Bai Guo heard the news in the mansion, she couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, based on his temperament towards Aunt Li, who was mean to Aunt Li and dared to use any means in order to win favor, he was really not sure whether the premature death of He's son had something to do with her. relation.

Fortunately, he still has some trust in Bai Ke, and Bai Ke did not disappoint him.

"Mr. Li was sent back to the uncle's mansion this morning. I heard from the spies in the mansion that Mrs. He was so angry that he smashed one of his favorite antique porcelain vases." Said the personal attendant who liked to gossip about these things in front of Bai Guo , "It's just a little pitiful, Xiao Shizi. When I said hello this morning, I was affected a bit. I heard that the forehead was scratched by debris."

Bai Guo frowned, and sighed again, this is a matter of the uncle's house closing the door itself, although he is a bit pitiful for the little son, but as a heir of a foreign marriage, it is not good for him to meddle in the affairs of the uncle's house...

Pressing his brows, Bai Guo ordered his servants to pay attention to the movement in the uncle's house, and after a few days of calm, another servant came to report: "Mr. What, Mrs. Li suddenly quarreled with Mrs. He in the house, Mrs. He punished Mrs. Li, and then called Master Bai Ke over... Later, Mrs. He told Mr. Bai Ke that she had died before her uncle passed away. I have taken care of my in-laws for Young Master Bai Ke before, and as soon as Rexiao comes out, Young Master Bai Ke can go through the door with the woman who welcomed her."

After a pause, the servant continued: "Speaking of the marriage that Mr. He pointed out to Master Bai Ke, although the woman's family background is not obvious, the princess may have heard rumors about her."

Bai Guo was puzzled: "Who is it?"

The servant said: "This woman's surname is Liu, and she is the daughter of a sixth-rank official named Wailang. All sorts of surprises."

Bai Guo had never heard of this rumor, he frowned, and instantly felt He's malice.Let's not say that the woman is a person with a miserable life, but because of the rumors of Kefu on her body, Mrs. He may be running for the reputation of this woman, and she does not hide her malice towards Mrs. Li and Bai Ke.

Bai Guo can probably figure out He's mentality. Now that Uncle Changping has passed away, and the young son has not been able to support the mansion, the entire Uncle Changping's mansion is in the hands of He's. Why can't she do whatever she wants?

Thinking of this, Ruan Tang suddenly fell short, and the man's low voice rang in his ears: "I'm going to pinch a fly to death with frowning, what is it that makes Princess Jing so exhausted?"

Bai Guo tilted her head, saw Xie Lin leaning over, couldn't help laughing and said, "When did Your Highness come in?"

Xie Lin said: "Not long."

Bai Guo approached him, played with the jade pendant on Xie Lin's waist with her fingers, and pursed her lips: "I guess His Highness must have heard everything."

Xie Lin said: "However, a small uncle's mansion is worth your attention now? This king told you that if the princess doesn't like it, just dispose of the uncle's mansion directly."

Bai Guo showed a helpless expression: "Your Highness, don't talk such nonsense anymore. It is His Majesty's decision to promote and relegate the Lord's House. How can you..." He muttered a word, afraid that Xie Lin would go for him. Intervening in this matter, he hurriedly said, "I know His Highness is willing to vent my anger on me, but let's forget about this kind of thing, ah."

Xie Lin said: "Uncle Changping's mansion is the title granted by the ancestors of the Bai family at the beginning of the founding of Jin. I don't care about small things, but they are rules after all, this king is just a reminder, and it is not considered meddling."

Bai Guo opened his eyes wide, then subconsciously blinked: "...Is that so?"

Xie Lin smiled and said, "Has no one told Wangfei?"

Bai Guo pursed her lips, and asked curiously: "Then if the title of the uncle's house drops further, what is it?"

Xie Lin let out a "huh" and said, "Perhaps he is a... county magistrate."

----

Not long after Xie Lin talked to Bai Guo, the imperial court really issued a decree to enshrine the heir of the Changping Bofu as county magistrate, and at the same time, in accordance with the laws of the Jin Dynasty, take back the fiefdom of the Bofu and give Huaiyin a small county instead.

At the same time, the Changping Bo’s Mansion and some valuables that had surpassed the regulations were also taken over by the government.

The newly granted courtyard is many times smaller than the Bo's Mansion, and it is located in a remote area in central Beijing. It is different from the East Street where high-ranking officials and nobles gather, and is surrounded by some desolate and down-and-out families.

In front of the imperial decree, He and the others were almost unable to react at all, so they had to dismiss most of the servants, and packed up their luggage and moved into the newly granted small house.

The scenery of the past few days was almost gone, He looked at the small buildings, his eyes went dark, and he fainted
