Chapter 78 The Ninth Highness and the Tenth Highness's Birthday Celebration

There is a rule in Dongqin. A man's first wife passed away, and a harmonious wife could be renewed. He could also establish a common wife before he passed away. However, the legitimate son and daughter born to the first wife only respect the first wife as his mother. The one who reiterates the mother of the second wife does not need to be called a mother.

But when the Ye family came to the family to show their dignity and to the importance of the Bai family to the Ye family, Bai Xingyan asked Bai Heran to call Ye his mother at that time.

Although there are rules for the law, this is the family of one's own family after all. Some families have good relationships and their children are willing to call each other, but no one can use rules for the law to tell things. But if you don't say it, it's really a headache to pursue it.

Jun Muchu looked at Bai Xingyan and sneered in his heart. When he looked at Ye, who was so angry that his face turned pale, he felt that his younger brother's play was even more wonderful. So he waved his hand and said loudly: "Come on, bring in all the birthday gifts I gave to the Bai family's mistress!"

There was a response immediately outside the door. Then, countless palace guards began to carry things to the mansion, and a eunuch sang loudly at the door: "The Ninth Princess and Tenth Princess celebrated their birthday to the head of Duke Wen's mansion! He gave Mrs. Bai a paper sedan chair, fifteen paper horses, nine paper maids, nine paper guards, nine paper turtles, nine pairs of dark candles, three late-day peaches, three late-day screens, two pairs of elegy couplets, fifteen jars of dark wine, one painting of Fulu and Shouxi Ming, a bowl of longevity noodles in the imperial kitchen, a table of dark banquets in the imperial kitchen, nineteen boxes of various types of dark decorations, and thirty-five sets of underworld uniforms in the four seasons! In addition, the Tenth Prince specially ordered the monks of the Imperial Treasure Temple to recite scriptures and pray for Mrs. Bai, forty-nine days!"

As the eunuch's tribute ended, everything outside the door was carried in.

Because it is a ritual, it is mostly made of paper. Even if the box is wrapped outside, the box is tied with flowers with white cloth. Non-paper objects are mainly white tones, such as white candles, wine in white porcelain jars, etc. Especially the paper sedan, which is exactly the same size as a normal sedan, is placed in front and back, and is carried by two paper men as tall as a real person, which is simply lifelike.

The two princes gave too many things. The lifting of the yard directly made the joy in the front yard not leave at all. Even if there were many red lanterns hanging in the yard, it would not be as good as the impact of those big white flowers and white cloths.

Baihe's eyes began to shine, talent!

Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh: "Domstic!"

The old lady, Hongshi, Xiaoyeshi and others who arrived later were already stunned, and everyone present was stunned.

Ye was so angry that he collapsed to the ground and cried. Bai Jinghong didn't know what to do, so he could only turn his eyes to the second prince for help. His charming appearance made the second prince feel distressed.

But what can he do? If it was Lao Shi, he would dare to say a few more kind words to persuade him, but the one sitting next to him was Lao Jiu. Facing this Jiu brother, he would not dare to say a word. If he would annoy the other party too much, he would be afraid that the tone would be even more on the Bai family. He would never believe that the huge Wen Guo Duke's Mansion would be clean. If he checked casually, the Bai family would be unlucky, and even the Ye family would have to follow him.

Seeing that the second prince did not say anything and silently lowered his head, Bai Jinghong knew that the cowardly lame man had no hope. So she stopped begging, but just cried with Ye, crying pitifully, with tears hanging on her face, almost making the men present feel distressed for her.

But no matter how much I felt sorry for it, no one dared to care. The eldest prince clearly muddyed the water and had already sat down next to the ninth prince to have tea. The sixth prince also chose not to participate, sat down next to the eldest prince, preparing to watch the show.

It was Jiang Yue who spoke again: "Your Highness Ninth, you see, I'm not wrong. This is Mingshou. Isn't it? The second wife and eldest lady of the Bai family have already started to cry."

Puff!

Some people couldn't hold back their laughter and laughed out loud. Looking at Ye again, they rolled their eyes in anger, looking like they were almost unable to survive.

Bai Xingyan was even more collapsed. Now that he was nothing, Jiang Yue had already taken off the guilty hat to him. To say one more thing, that would be a serious crime that violated the rules of the Dong Qin Dynasty. But he was the head of the family. If he didn't speak at this time, how could he look up in front of his colleagues in the future? He would not be laughed at to death?

Just as he was thinking, suddenly, Bai Heran spoke - "My daughter, thank you for your two high men for thinking about your mother, but your prince really made a mistake. Today is not the late birthday of my daughter's biological mother, but the happy birthday of the current mistress in the house."

"Oh?" The ninth prince was not surprised at all, "Then tell me why it wasn't my biological mother Mingshou, and I would tell Jiang Yue that it was your mother's birthday party?" Although it was a question, it was no different from the tone of family chat. He didn't bother to hide it at all, but seemed to be telling everyone that I knew everything, but deliberately disgusted the Bai family. How can you do this with me?

Bai Heran also learned his tone and said calmly and plainly: "Because my daughter lost her mother when she was a daughter, and after her father married a wife again, she asked her daughter to call Xuxian's wife the mother, because the other party was the niece of the Empress Dowager. Only when I called her mother could she show her dignity." She said, then looked at the place where the Ye family and daughter were, and then thought about it, and wiped it a few times in her eyes. Then, her voice choked up, "My woman said a little lightly and didn't want to cause trouble to the family. Our Bai family has nothing except a hereditary title, and we can't afford to provoke the new lady and the empress dowager. Therefore, the daughter could only obey her father's words, give up the self-esteem of the legitimate daughter, and call her new lady a mother."

Although she was wiping her tears, she couldn't shed tears except for her choking voice, which looked a bit fake.

Bai Zhenzhen couldn't stand it anymore, so she leaned closer and whispered to it: "Pretty like a little more."

Bai Heran was helpless: "I don't know much!"

"You can at least squeeze two tears! You can't do thunder or rain."

"That's right." She squeezed her eyes hard, but unfortunately she still didn't squeeze out.

Jun Muchu looked at the two girls opposite, and the little noise like a mosquito scream reached his ears word by word. His Royal Highness the Cold-faced King of Hell suddenly had the urge to laugh, but he was still suppressed. But a doubt turned a few times in his heart: The two daughters of the Bai family were born funny, right?

However, he knew very well what he was doing today, and always remembered the tasks assigned by Lao Shi. Now that Bai Heran has handed out the words, he naturally has to talk about them. So Jun Muchu spoke again and asked Xiang Bai Xingyan: "In the eyes of your Bai family, the empress dowager's niece is more important than the law of the East Qin?"

Jiang Yue also added: "This crime of despising the laws of the Eastern Qin Dynasty is not light!"

Bai Xingyan knelt on the ground and his whole body was trembling, just like shaking a sieve. He kept shaking his head: "No, no, I have no intention. The law of the East Qin is greater than that in my heart. I dare not be disrespectful to anything, let alone despise it!"

"Then you are telling me why you insist on asking your legitimate daughter to call Ping Wife the mother?"

Bai Xingyan's mouth moved, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment. He knew in his heart that he had fallen into the trap set by Bai Heran, but when did Bai Heran join forces with His Royal Highness Ninth? Hasn't she been refusing to accept the imperial edict? How could he cooperate with His Royal Highness Ninth like a hell without knowing it?

He was puzzled and had nowhere to defend himself. But at this moment, a voice suddenly rose from the crowd and said to him - "Many mansions are like this, not only our family. Your Highness can inquire. If you really want to investigate, it shouldn't be the only one of our family."

Everyone was stunned by the sound. People looked at the sound and finally turned their eyes to a little girl.

Bai Heran's lips curled up, and he could hardly hold back his smile. He only said Bai Huayan, Bai Huayan. If the ninth prince just stabbed Bai Xingyan before, Bai Huayan's words would undoubtedly sprinkle a handful of salt on her father's wound.

The person who spoke was the brainless Bai Huayan. When facing people, they were looking at fools or almost wanted to eat her, she didn't think she was wrong at all, and even thought she was the hero of the Bai family. She raised her chest and looked up at Bai Xingyan, full of attitude of seeking credit.

Bai Xingyan was almost crying. After holding it for a long time, he finally burst out at this time. He heard him scream with all his strength: "Beast! Shut up my mouth! Shut up!!"

Bai Huayan was frightened and opened her mouth wide, but she couldn't say a word.

However, she couldn't say it, but others could say it. For a moment, she heard accusations from all directions ringing: "What does Miss Bai's mean? We came to celebrate our birthday with kindness, and we were framed by you like this?"

"That's it! What does it mean that your family cannot be unlucky? Who else do you want to make it unlucky?"

"Dude, we are officials in the same dynasty. Do you have any disrespect to you on weekdays? You want to block the door and frame you like this?"

"Is the Bai family going to take us in one fell swoop? The vicious heart is really even more like a snake or a scorpion!"

"Your Highness Nine!" Countless court officials knelt down, "Please ask Your Highness Nine to take a clear picture. I don't dare to agree with the matter of not following the laws of the Eastern Qin Dynasty, so I ask Your Highness Nine to take a clear picture!"

Seeing that Bai Xingyan became the target of public criticism, the old lady who had been watching on the sidelines finally couldn't stand it anymore. She could watch her son suffer losses and punish him as punishment. But now that he was collectively excluded by all court officials, the meaning was different, and she had to find a way to turn it around.

So she spoke and shouted: "Ye, is this the child you raised? You insisted on carrying the newborn child to raise it in order to raise her like this, and you are brainless and unruly and lies and talk nonsense? Ye, my Bai family misses you as the niece of the Empress Dowager. He has always treated you as a guest of honor. Xingyan respects you and is afraid of you. In order to avoid you being unhappy, you have to let the serious daughter left by his miserable wife call you a mother. But what about you? How did you repay my Bai family? What kind of heart are you doing?"

She was so angry that she trembled. After scolding Ye, she scolded her son again: "Xingyan, you said something too! Ye was encouraging your youngest daughter who was only ten years old to talk nonsense. What do you want to ask her?"
