"The eldest sister is the most powerful!" The fifth girl quickly ran up to Bai Qingyan, pulled Bai Qingyan's sleeves and acted coquettishly, with admiration in her eyes, "When I grow up, I want to be as powerful as the eldest sister."
Bai Qingyan raised her hand and touched the little blessing bag on the fifth girl's head. Looking at her sister's carefree and sweet smile, the warmth in her heart dispelled the chill in her body and made her whole body warm.
"Eldest sister, sit down quickly!" Bai Jintong pinned Bai Qingyan on the table, then kicked out the fourth girl Bai Jinzhi and the fifth and sixth girls, and asked them to go to the kitchen to get snacks for Bai Qingyan.
Early this morning, Bai Jinxiu heard Bai Jintong say what Bai Qingyan said to Qin Lang last night. Her eyes turned red and she choked with sobs: "Sister..."
Knowing what Bai Jinxiu wanted to say, Bai Qingyan took Bai Jinxiu's hand and patted it gently. He smiled gently at Bai Jinxiu and whispered slowly: "Qin Lang came to visit this morning and asked his grandmother to enter the palace and ask for the throne.
Although Qin Lang will no longer be the heir apparent in the future, if the world knows that Jiang is unkind to his mother, you will have an excuse to move out of Zhongyonghou Mansion and live your own life behind closed doors."
Bai Jinxiu's eyes heated up at Bai Qingyan's words, and she felt more and more ashamed of her eldest sister's instructions when she gave her the heirloom sword. She choked with sobs and nodded: "I know eldest sister! I told the prince the same thing last night."
Seeing Bai Jinxiu shed tears, Bai Qingyan felt heartbroken and her eyes turned red. She wiped away Bai Jinxiu's tears with a handkerchief: "At that time, let my mother and second aunt select some capable mother-in-law servants for you. There is no mother-in-law."
Take care, everything will be fine! Don't be afraid... Our Duke and Grandmother are always behind you, and no one in this metropolis can bully my daughter's family."
"I didn't expect Qin Lang to have such courage to make a decision." Bai Jintong sat down next to Bai Qingyan, his eyes darkened, "I hope the two snakes and scorpions in the Zhongyong Hou Mansion that injured the second sister will know how powerful my Zhenguo Duke Mansion is.
, I won’t dare to provoke my second sister again.”
"After ten years of smoke and ashes, there is still a bad smell. It's hard to change a bad nature." Bai Qingyan stretched out his hand to warm up the fire, looked up at Bai Jinxiu and smiled, "If you want them to sleep well, just do it."
You have to break their backs and pin down their backers with one strike! Let them know what pain is and what fear is. From now on, their legs will tremble when they hear your second sister's name. Only in this way... can your second sister live in peace."
"Backer?! Eldest sister is talking about Mrs. Hou Jiang?" Bai Jintong's eyes lit up.
Now that Bai Qingyan has taken action, he is definitely not trying to scare Mrs. Zhongyonghou and his daughter into trouble. People like Mrs. Zhongyonghou and his daughter who are good at secrecy in the back house are the most annoying. They are like fleas. If they don't die, sooner or later they will become arrogant.
to create greater trouble for Bai Jinxiu.
She didn't want to cause trouble for Bai Jinxiu, and she didn't want Bai Jinxiu's hands to get dirty, so she planned to take care of the Marquis of Zhongyong's house this time.
Bai Qingyan asked: "Where is your marriage contract with the girl?"
"It's on the bottom layer of my dressing box..." Bai Jinxiu knew that Bai Qingyan must use it, so she motioned to Bai Jintong to get it, "I put the property deeds of the village and the deeds of the girls that my grandmother and mother gave me as dowry here.
, I planned to come back and get it when I returned home."
Bai Jintong stood up and took out the birth certificate from the mahogany mother-of-pearl box and handed it to Bai Qingyan.
Bai Qingyan picked out Mingyu's body deeds and handed the others to Bai Jintong for her to put back: "Keep these body deeds well, they will be useful in the future."
"Mingyu, is she..." Bai Jinxiu clenched the brocade under her body, "She..."
Not wanting Bai Jinxiu, who was injured, to waste any more energy, she gently held Bai Jinxiu's hand and warned: "It's important that you take good care of your injuries, don't worry about these things that are betrayed, just leave them to capable people to deal with.
"
As she said that, she turned around and handed Mingyu's body deed to Chuntao, with something in her words: "Tell your cousin Mingyu to betray the Lord and be ungrateful. Although the second girl is kind-hearted, nature will never tolerate it. Once this matter is settled, there will be many problems."
reward."
It is also a good idea to ask the servants of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion to open their eyes and take a closer look at what the consequences will be if they betray the master.
Chuntao said yes, took the body deed with both hands, and exited Qingzhu Pavilion.
On that day, less than an hour after the eldest princess came out of the palace with Qin Lang at noon, the news that Crown Prince Zhongyong had asked for the throne spread throughout the capital city.
When Mrs. Jiang, the wife of Marquis Zhongyong, received the news, her legs were as weak as mud and she fell down on the chair, sweating profusely.
"Mother, this is a good thing! Why does mother look so ugly?" Miss Qin Er grabbed Mrs. Jiang's sleeve.
Qin Lang asked for the throne, and their younger brother could become the heir apparent.
Jiang didn't even have the energy to scold her daughter at this time. She pressed her heart tightly, knowing that her reputation was completely ruined now. Her reputation didn't matter, but her child was still young... Who would dare to marry a daughter of the Qin family in the future?
Who dares to marry the Qin family?
Angry, Mr. Jiang slapped Miss Qin so hard that she fell to the ground.
Miss Qin covered her burning face with one hand and looked at Jiang with wide eyes and tears in her eyes: "Mother?! Why do you want to beat your daughter?!"
"Idiot! If you and Bai Jinxiu didn't get into a fight over a verbal dispute, how could things have become so big!"
After scolding her daughter, Mrs. Jiang forced herself to cheer up. As long as His Majesty's explicit edict was not issued, there would still be room for maneuver. It was too late to enter the palace today, so she would go to the palace tomorrow to ask the Queen to show mercy to Your Majesty.
Don't take Qin Lang's crown prince position, make the gesture that a good stepmother should have, and show that the Zhongyong Hou Mansion can only have Qin Lang, the crown prince, and maybe the situation can be saved.
"Mother Wu!" Mrs. Jiang called out. When she saw the sallow-faced Mother Wu coming in from outside, she hurriedly ordered, "Hurry up and pass the sign to the palace. I will go into the palace tomorrow to pay homage to the Queen."
After Wu saluted Mrs. Jiang, she said: "Madam, something happened! Steward Xu from Gangzhuangzi came with a face full of injuries... He said that there were people from the Zhenguo Palace guarding the courtyard today with a group of thugs.
Rushed into your dowry village... took Mingyu's body deed and took Mingyu away!"
Jiang didn't take a breath and fell down on the soft couch, almost losing his breath.
"Does the Duke of Zhenguo know everything? Do they also know about the drowning of those girls in our house?" Mrs. Jiang covered her heart and felt like she couldn't breathe.
"Although it's not a big deal for a wealthy family to kill a few girls, that girl Mingyu knows everything about the causes and consequences. If she spits out everything to the Zhenguo Palace, it will be difficult for the eldest princess to explain..." Madam Wu
Grandma looked worriedly at Miss Qin Er, who was shedding tears.
"Mom!" Miss Qin's legs were so frightened just thinking about the majesty of the eldest princess, she cried and grabbed Jiang's clothes, "What can we do?! The eldest princess will definitely not let go if she knows about it.
