Chapter 12 The crime of deceiving the king
Bai Xingyan was furious by this daughter, "Don't you want to be sophistry, why did my country's Duke think of that bitch Chunyu Lan at all?"
Bai Heran's face was full of sympathy, "My daughter understands that my father is considering the second wife in this way, but everyone knows that the second wife in our house is the most generous and virtuous. What's more, my mother has passed away for many years, and the second wife will not be angry with her father for any reason. My father doesn't have to be so afraid."
After saying that Bai Xingyan was afraid of the Great Ye family, which immediately embarrassed Bai Xingyan, and his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction when he looked at Ye family again.
Ye naturally noticed the change in the atmosphere, so he quickly stated: "The master is the head of this family. Although I am in charge of the back house, I must put the master first in everything. In front of the master, I dare not be arrogant."
Bai Xingyan was in a bad mood, and shook his sleeves and snorted coldly, ignoring her.
Ye was shameless and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
The eldest lady Bai Jinghong's face became increasingly ugly. She looked at the emperor's list held in Bai Heran's hand, and a faint sadness appeared in her eyes.
She is the legitimate daughter of the Bai family. Although she is not her biological daughter, the empress dowager at that time was her aunt. The Bai family dared not look down on her at all, and had already made plans for her future. She had seen the princes in the palace since she was a child, and the emperor had their own strengths. The Tenth Prince's Yingyan, Zhang Shengshi, will be unforgettable to any woman when she sees her.
She loved the Tenth Prince from the bottom of her heart, and always remembered that her mother said that there are only two princes that the emperor likes the most, one is the calm, introverted, and the other is the Tenth Prince Jun Mulin who is eccentric, willful and cynical. Although these two princes have no biological mother, they have been raised by the queen since childhood, and their status is more noble than others, and their future is immeasurable.
She felt uncomfortable when the Tenth Prince died suddenly. Now she heard Bai Heran say such things that only she is the hostess in the palace from now on, so she is even more unhappy.
But she could not show it. She was recognized as the number one beauty in Shangdu City and the most virtuous and kind-hearted woman. She must always be dignified, decent, kind and friendly in front of others. She must consider the overall situation of the Bai family. So no matter how unhappy she feels in her heart, she cannot express it directly. Instead, she should think of a good way and find a good reason to vent this unhappiness.
Bai Jinghong looked at Bai Heran, then looked at the white cloth spirit banners all over the yard. After a change of mind, he came up with a plan.
"What should I do?" A layer of worry appeared on the sad face, "Father, my daughter is really worried. Will our Bai family be charged with deceiving the emperor for this?"
As soon as this statement was spoken, everyone in the Bai family was stunned. Bai Xingyan asked first, "Why did Jinghong say this?"
The old lady was also worried and asked anxiously: "How did you say this?"
Bai Jinghong quickly leaned over to the old lady, holding her face worried about the country and the people, saying, "Now everyone knows that the second daughter in our mansion was unfortunately killed and was given a ghost marriage by the emperor to make a ghost marriage with the tenth prince. But now the second sister is back alive. How should we explain this to the emperor about this matter? Jinghong is just a little girl and does not know too much about the laws of the country, so she has this question. Father, Jinghong is really worried."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and a burst of tears were in her eyes, which made people feel very distressed to see.
Her words worked even more miraculously. The Bai family was worried about her words. They looked at Bai Heran one by one, as if they saw the enemy who sent them to the guillotine, and the anger in their eyes was not hidden at all.
The second wife, Ye, nodded secretly. She did not train her daughter in vain. She would not speak at all, but she would talk about the most important thing. She said that she would deceive the emperor, and now even the old lady would protect Baiheran from this.
"What should I do?" She also spoke, feeling very embarrassed. Even though she thought to herself, she could never say it out of her mouth. So she gave a wink to her concubine Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye was an unintentional person. He always listened to her sister's words and did whatever she asked her to do. At this moment, when she saw her sister wink at her, she thought about it and immediately understood what the wink meant, so she spoke: "Miss is right. This second lady is back alive. Our family is indeed... a deceiving the king!"
