The eldest prince and the second prince had a rest, and the other princes who were originally aiming for Bai Fuling did not dare to fight again, lest they be suspected of trying to win over Lu Ying to fight for the throne.
Because of this subtle change, Bai Fuling escaped the danger of being "chosen concubine".
However, there is always a long distance between the reality and the ideal. No one expected that, seeing that she could go to freedom soon, another accident soon pushed her into the vortex of disputes.
On the second day after the completion of Bai Fuling and Ji Li, the eldest grandma Zhou and the third grandma Chen of the Yasukuni Mansion came to the house early in the morning, bringing their respective daughters, Huiyun Huiru.
Bai Fuling was already preparing to leave for Yunque Mountain, so she naturally greeted them impatiently. After serving the red yeast rice with tea, she cut to the chase and said, "The two aunts came just in time. I'm not feeling well and need to rest. I'm going to Yunque Mountain today, please." The two of you will go back and bid farewell to everyone in the family."
Mrs. Zhou pulled out an expression of extreme surprise, and exclaimed exaggeratedly: "You are a girl who goes to that kind of country place alone, how can people feel at ease? But do you think we didn't greet you well? Or are the people below lazy? ? Ling’er, tell me, Auntie will definitely teach those who don’t have good eyesight a lesson!”
Mrs. Chen also echoed: "That's right, your parents want to stay in the mansion to take care of the old lady, but do you have the heart to let you live in that kind of place alone? What if those rascals trick you, a weak woman, into causing trouble?" , so what should I do?"
Bai Fuling lazily said: "Two aunts, don't worry, most of my family's Ding Nursing Academy knows martial arts, nothing will happen."
The Zhou family and the Chen family still refused to give up, and tried their best to persuade Bai Fuling to stay in the capital, only describing that the outside of the capital is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, with refugees, thugs, robbers and gangsters everywhere, and various types of vicious security incidents broke out every moment.
That worried tone made those who didn't know how close they were and how much they cherished their niece.
After persuasion for a while, seeing Bai Fuling just smiled and said nothing, completely unmoved, I couldn't help but secretly wonder, how can a little girl who usually looks weak, deceitful, introverted and shy, be so stubborn? After they talked so much, even the two sisters, Huiyun and Huiru, turned blue from fright. Why is she acting as if nothing happened
They didn't have the chance to see Bai Fuling's "elegance" at Xia Xinxin's poetry meeting, otherwise they would never have such an illusion, thinking that a few words can scare her.
Bai Fuling didn't turn her back on them, she just thought their performance was very interesting.
Zhou and Chen exchanged glances, and immediately changed to the second plan.
"If you insist on going, there's nothing you can do, but we really don't trust you. How about this? Huiyun and Huiru are fine anyway, so they will accompany you there. They will take care of everything, and they can accompany you when you are free. Talk to relieve boredom." Zhou smiled very virtuously and lovingly.
They discussed it yesterday, no matter what, they must put people around Bai Fuling, so that they can firmly control her.
Bai Fuling said in a low voice on purpose: "I'm not in good health. I need to rest. I lie in the room every day. I'm afraid of making noise. If I'm bored, what should I do for my two cousins?"
These two aunts are too ignorant of themselves. Huiyun and Huiru together are noisier than ducks.
Chen Shi said: "When you are resting, the two of them will be companions, so why are you bored? The Fifth Princess once lived in the other courtyard of Yunque Mountain! It must be a quiet and elegant place, so let them go and experience it! "Her husband's glory and wealth are all on this little girl in front of her!"
Bai Guo was furious at the side, and couldn't help but sneer and said: "My lady is going to rest, and there are many places for the two cousins to go out and play, why bother to join in the fun?!"
I've never seen such a brain-dead person. They all said that they were going to recuperate from illness, and they wanted to take them to play together, thanks to their kindness.
Mrs. Chen regretted her slip of the tongue, but when she thought that Bai Guo was just a little maid, she dared to interrupt and ridicule them openly, angrily said: "Bold! What is this place? What is your identity? It is your turn to be a little girl in the matter of the master." Slaves gossip?! It’s because of a servant like you who has lost the rules because of his master’s weakness, we don’t worry about letting people watch us, and we can’t teach your young lady to be bullied by servants!”
"You don't wish to bully my daughter, I'm thankful." Mu Peilan's voice came from the door coldly. The two mother and daughter just entered Yunxuan, and Bai Guo sent a little maid to inform her. She came in just in time to hear Chen's brazen words.
Upon hearing Mu Peilan's words, Mrs. Zhou changed her face and said, "What do you mean by cousin?"
"Just the literal meaning." Mu Peilan remembered that the people who hated Yasukuni's government had made their own plans to plot against her daughter, so naturally they would not have a good attitude towards them.
Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Chen lowered their faces at the same time and said: "Our family has worked so hard to prepare the wedding ceremony for your daughter, put down our old faces to invite guests everywhere, and tried our best to put your daughter on the candidate list for the princess, now you have used up We have fallen, and you turned your face and refused to recognize anyone? Is there such a reason in the world?"
It's okay if she didn't mention the selection of the prince concubine, but it only made Mu Peilan angrier. She didn't bother to quarrel with them, so she said indifferently: "So what if you want to use you? You want to get out of Zhongguo's mansion immediately? The next two The government cut off diplomatic relations and no further contact? Just say it."
The Zhou family and the Chen family looked at each other in blank dismay. Their children all lived in the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion, and they had long regarded this place as their own territory. Want them to move back? How can that be? !
As the eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest house, Mrs. Zhou came from a famous family and did not want to lose her manners. She almost wanted to walk away with a sullen face.
Mu Peilan walked up to her, raised her hand and slapped her across the face. Chen's voice was silenced immediately, and her not-so-petite body flew out in front of everyone's eyes, and fell to the ground with a slap. Mu Peilan used ingenuity, she wasn't actually injured, it was just too shocking.
The group of women who came with the Yasukuni Mansion were all frightened and dumbfounded. After waking up, they rushed out without even saying hello, helping Chen to escape in embarrassment.
Bai Fuling hugged her mother's arm with a smile and concluded: In the face of violence, all quarrels, sowing dissension, and conspiracy are vulnerable!
After "sending off" the uninvited guest, Bai Chou and his wife set off to send their daughter to the other hospital in Yunque Mountain to recuperate. The carriage went smoothly, and when they were about to reach the south gate, they suddenly heard screams from the front left. The carriage in which the Bai Chou and his wife were sitting was ahead, and Bai Ah Wu, who was driving them, was about to stop the horses to see what happened, when he saw a carriage rushing out of a fork in the road on the left.
The two horses pulling the carriage seemed to be frightened, even though the coachman pulled the reins and swung the whip, they still refused to stop, and they rammed into the carriage of the Bai Chou couple before they could stop.
How could Bai Ah Wu let his own carriage be hit, so he jumped up decisively, and slapped the two crazy horses with palms on the left and right. When it stopped, the coachman was still in shock, shaking while holding on to the shaft. Can't say a word.
A few riders came running from behind the carriage, and the people on the horses were all dressed up as Ding Huyuan. They quickly surrounded the carriage, and the leader of a strong man shouted: "The villain is useless, the adults are frightened!"
The door of the carriage was pushed open, and a middle-aged scribe in green shirt stepped out of the carriage. He didn't look like an adult, but more like an aide in an official's house. An old voice in the car said: "The old man is fine, go and see who the carriage ran into just now, if they were injured or lost property, they will be compensated."
The few people around Bai Fuling heard this, and they all had a good impression of this "adult". It was not his wish that the horse lost control, and he would first think of compensating the passers-by who suffered innocent disasters, which is really rare among officials these days animal.
The green-clothed scribe took two steps, gave Bai Ah Wu a deep bow and said, "But this strong man knocked down the crazy horse and saved my lord? The strong man has great skills! The love of helping each other is deeply felt in the hearts of the entire Bai family."
Bai Ah Wu hurriedly helped him up, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "It's a trivial matter, no need to thank you."
Although the environment was chaotic just now, the green-clothed scribe vaguely remembered that he was sitting in the position of the coachman, and he knocked down two galloping horses at the same time with one strike. Such a person is willing to drive the car for others, presumably the identity of the person in the car is not simple.
The green-clothed scribe swept across several carriages in the Bai family's line, secretly calculating the identity of the occupants.
Bai Chou and the others didn't want to attract attention, they all used the carriage prepared by Bai Pingzi for them, without any markings on the body, except that Bai Fuling's ebony carriage was a little special, so it was impossible to deduce their identities from the carriage.
This place is already very close to the city gate, and it is very crowded with people and vehicles. Two carriages stopped at the crossroads, and they circled around to watch the fun. However, the scholar in blue seems to be very interested in doing things with Bai Awula, Bai Awu. Chou thought for a while, opened the car door, leaned out, cupped his fists towards the other party's carriage, and said, "It's inconvenient to talk here, and I have to go on my way later, so I'll take my leave first. Ah Wu, pull the car away quickly, don't get in the way. "
As soon as he appeared, more than a dozen people on the other side and the surrounding people were stunned—what a handsome man! Which family's master is this? He really has a face like a crown of jade and a radiant look!
Bai Ah Wu responded happily, grinning at the green-clothed scribe, got into the carriage, whipped the horse and continued towards the city gate.
The green-clothed scribe shook his head and smiled wryly. In the past, people were eager to curry favor with them. Unexpectedly, today he was rarely curious and wanted to find out the details of the other party, but they didn't want to pay attention at all.
He raised his hand to signal the servants and nurses to unload the carriage and push it to the side of the road. He walked to the side of the carriage and planned to ask the owner if he wanted to continue the journey or go back to the house first. When he opened the door, he saw the owner staring at the carriage in shock. He had never seen such a nervous and excited look at the window position.
"My lord? But was that group of people just now weird?"
The old man in the car slowly shook his head and said, "It's so similar... too similar..."
"My lord?" Like what? Could it be that the two masters and servants just now were old acquaintances of the master
The old man came back to his senses, grabbed the green-clothed scribe's arm with one hand and said, "Ban Mao, go and find out the details of the man in the car just now!"
