Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Bai Ruozhu walked closer to Dongqing as he spoke, stared into her eyes and said, "If you die, it will be over once and for all, but do you really not care about your brother?"

There was a look of horror in Holly's eyes, "Is he really not going to let my brother go? He is still a child, how can he be so cruel?"

Dongqing was so anxious that she was a little incoherent. In the first part, he pointed to the master who saved her brother, and in the second part, he pointed to her brother.

Bai Ruozhu signaled Cui Fan to untie the acupuncture points for her, and then said to her: "Now that the acupuncture points have been untied, you still insist on dying. I won't stop you. If you want to save your brother, you have to act according to my arrangements." .”

Dongqing crawled and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Bai Ruozhu, saying, "Miss, please save my brother."

"You have already disbelieved me once. I hope you will not be incited by others this time and do everything I say."

Dongqing nodded vigorously, "I will definitely listen to the eldest lady this time. If I do anything sorry to you again, I will go to the eighteenth level of hell after death and be burned by the fire of karma."

The ancients believed in ghosts and gods, and believed that they would go to hell after death. Holly must have really made up her mind to make such a strong oath.

"Okay, get up, wipe your tears, and make yourself stronger." Bai Ruozhu said and looked at Jian Qi, "Send someone to search for the whereabouts of younger brother Dongqing. That person should be related to the Yang family. If not, use the power of the Chamber of Commerce. help."

Then she said to Cui Fan: "Such a thing happened in the mansion, both because of my negligence and because of your lack of caution. We will start re-arranging the guard shifts today. We must ensure the safety of the mansion!"

Cui Fan hurriedly saluted, "Yes, my subordinates will come and receive the punishment after arranging the affairs."

After Bai Ruozhu finished speaking, he handed Dongqing to Mu Yu to take care of her and said, "You stay in this yard to protect her and don't let anyone get close to her."

"Cui Fan, let people spread the news that a maid committed suicide by throwing herself into a well in the old lady's yard. No one is allowed to come near. Anyone who knows that Dongqing is still alive must keep quiet and don't let any news get out." Bai Ruozhu ordered sternly.

"Yes." Cui Fan quickly accepted the order and retreated.

"Jian Qi, also tell the people below you to keep their mouths shut." Bai Ruozhu said again.

"Yes, my subordinates will tell you now."

Bai Ruozhu told Dongqing to hide here and recuperate, and not to go out for the time being. She would be let out when she was needed.

Bai Ruozhu then went to the main courtyard, intending to talk to her parents first, but as a result, there was already a eunuch outside telling her to enter the palace.

Bai Ruozhu looked at Guizhi, who had been following her, and said, "Please help comfort my parents, and what happened just now must be kept secret."

Guizhi nodded, "Be careful. If it doesn't work, just ask the Queen Mother and Princess for help."

Bai Ruozhu nodded and followed the eunuch who ordered him to leave.

When she arrived at the palace, she learned that the emperor had said that he would try the case in person, but the court had already retired and he had asked a group of people to wait in the imperial study.

When Bai Ruozhu entered the imperial study room, she saw Jiang Yichun looking towards her in the dark. There were cracks on his face that seemed to be frozen, as if soft sunlight was shining out.

He smiled at her, reassuring her that he would be there for everything.

She had never doubted that he could not protect her well, but she didn't like hiding behind men in everything. Men were human beings too, and they would get tired. She also felt sorry for her Ah Chun and didn't want him to shoulder everything alone. .

"My concubine, Mrs. Bai, is here to see the Emperor." Now that she has imperial status, she can no longer call herself a commoner's wife.

"Mr. Bai, there's no need to be polite. You should have asked the eunuch who sent the order on the way. Do you know why I asked you to come?" The emperor said coldly, with a tone that seemed to dislike Bai Ruozhu.

Since the emperor said "no need to be polite", she didn't want to call herself "concubine". This was the court etiquette of Danliang Kingdom, but she always found it very difficult to pronounce.

"It is said that someone got my bracelet, and that it was given to me by the Queen Mother. I didn't have time to go back and check the jewelry box, so I don't know what happened. But before I left, I heard that a maid at home committed suicide by throwing herself into a well. ”

This is like a play on words. She only said that the maid committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, and did not say that the maid was dead. Even if she stood in front of the emperor alive, it would not be considered as her deceiving the emperor.

The emperor ordered someone to show her the bracelet, and it turned out to be the one given to her by the Queen Mother.

"Ms. Bai, Mr. Yang is accusing you of bribing Yang Hongwen's concubines and letting them falsely accuse Yang Hongwen. He also said that you sent this bracelet. If there are both witnesses and physical evidence, how do you explain it?" The emperor's voice was not loud, but with a hint of emotion. The majesty of the superior.

Bai Ruozhu glanced at Yang Tianhua, and saw that his eyes were full of viciousness and pride, as if to say: A little girl like you really wants to fight with me?

"Your Majesty, please be careful. I have just moved to Beijing with my family. There is a bit of chaos in and out of the house, so this kind of theft happened. Some people in the family even threw themselves into the well. I am really ashamed to say it. But I am determined not to bribe Yang Hongwen. A concubine, just think about it, a woman is originally devoted to her husband. Facing her beloved husband, would she really betray her for a bracelet?"

Bai Ruozhu glanced at Yang Tianhua as he spoke. The meaning behind his words was obvious. If those women were really Yang Hongwen's concubines, how could they be easily bribed by an outsider like her for a little money?

"That's a bracelet given by the Queen Mother, so it will naturally make people jealous." Yang Tianhua snorted from the side.

Bai Ruozhu's eyes flashed with ridicule, this Yang Tianhua was so smart that he was misled by his cleverness.

"The Queen Mother gave me a bracelet at the birthday banquet, and only the ministers and concubines present knew about it. How did one of Yang Hongwen's concubines know that this was a gift from the Queen Mother? How did she know that it was precious and became jealous?" Bai Ruozhu said. He shook his head and said, "If you believe me just after hearing a few words from me, then why don't I use other objects to pretend to be her? She won't recognize it anyway, right?"

"You use it to bribe people. Who knows what your intentions are?" Yang Tianhua said.

Bai Ruozhu ignored him and saluted the emperor, saying, "Please give me three days to find out about the theft of jewelry from my home and find out who wants to frame me!"

"Now that the witnesses and physical evidence are all there, you are using strong words! It's obvious that you are a woman with a vicious heart. If my son says a few more words to you, you will kill him. It was in vain that he just observed the courtesy and thanked you that day. ." Yang Tianhua pointed at Bai Ruozhu's nose and cursed.

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help laughing. Everyone who was an official in the court was an actor. He could turn black into white, and he acted with such devotion, as if his son had the deepest heart in the world. Like a child who is kind and courteous to others.

The emperor frowned slightly, and seemed to be disgusted with Yang Tianhua's behavior. Of course, he would be damned if he could like the Yang family.

"Okay, since I gave Yang Hongwen the opportunity to find evidence before, I will also give you three days to prove your innocence." The emperor said.

"Your Majesty, I'm not convinced!" Yang Tianhua shouted.
