The five women and Xiao Si who had received the favor from Prince Liang's Mansion to spread the news were already shaking so hard when they saw Chunyan's fate that they could only kowtow and beg for mercy.
Mrs. Dong was so angry that Chunyan felt a tightness in her chest. She gritted her teeth and said, "Steward Hao, follow the rules and don't give me mercy..."
Butler Hao immediately stepped forward, and neatly punished these five money-hungry people. He broke their legs and ordered Yazi to take the four women, the five Xiao Si and their families away and sell them away.
Towards the end of the year, Dong, the wife of the Crown Prince of Zhen Guo Gong Mansion, reorganized the palace because of the ambiguity between the gatekeeper of Guo Gong Mansion and Prince Liang's Mansion, beating those who should be beaten, selling those who should be sold, and even several stewards.
Having been implicated, it was unreasonable to suffer disaster.
Mr. Dong took drastic measures to replace and adjust the management, and the concierge was even "heavily guarded".
Mrs. Dong knew very well that the entrance to the Duke's Mansion was the first hurdle of the Duke's Mansion, and nothing could happen again.
The King of Liang had been waiting outside the corner gate. Tong Ji heard the bustle inside the corner gate and changed the woman servant guarding the gate. He couldn't help but call for the door, but no one came to open the door.
A few quarters of an hour later, someone came to report to King Liang that many servants had been sold by the Duke's Mansion, and some were carried out bloody. King Liang felt nervous, knowing that he would not be able to see Bai Qingyan today, so he asked people to do so.
He went back to his house and told Tong Ji before leaving: "You stay here and find a way to contact Chunyan and ask what happened in the Duke's house."
"I understand, little one!" Tong Ji nodded.
After returning home, King Liang was restless. Tong Ji came back and said that the gatekeepers and servants of the Duke's Palace had been changed. He had given money to someone called Chunyan, but no one dared to accept it. They all said that the wife of the Crown Prince's Palace had just renovated the palace.
, no one dares to get into trouble at this time.
King Liang could only close his eyes and think of a solution.

That night, Chun Xing, who had taken the position of Chun Yan's eldest girl, stood obediently next to Bai Qingyan and talked about the incident of Mrs. Zhongyong Hou's wife Jiang Fengchun being released by Jingzhao Yin's mansion: "The explanation given after the case was closed was that it was because of that.
The five dowry girls had their slave status canceled after they died, so they were still slaves when they died. Mrs. Zhongyong Hou did not consider her guilty, so she let them go."
Bai Qingyan listened, placed a piece on the chessboard, and nodded: "I understand, go and do your work!"
Chun Xing nodded and said yes. Seeing Chun Tao coming in with red eyes and opening the curtain, she left the upper room.
"Girl, I will take care of you!" Chuntao said with a strong nasal voice.
Bai Qingyan asked: "How is Chunyan?"
Chuntao shed tears again, guilt surged in her heart, and she was so ashamed that she wished she could die: "The doctor said it would probably take half a month, but the grandma who executed her still beat her lightly, even if she broke her legs, it would be enough."
It’s not unfair!”
She only felt that Chuntao was cute like this, and patted Chuntao's hand: "Okay! I'm not angry anymore, so don't be upset! Even if you don't plead, I won't do anything to Chunyan, keep Chunyan
I still have a use, take good care of her, just be aware of this!"
Chuntao blinked her eyes with tears. When she heard that the elder girl was still useful in keeping Chunyan, she immediately seemed to come to life and repeatedly promised: "Don't worry, elder girl, I will definitely not show it on my face, and Chunyan won't notice."
Today, when Chuntao heard that Chunyan had told Prince Liang so much of the girl's privacy, Chunyan didn't even have the slightest sympathy. Naturally, she would obey whatever Bai Qingyan said.
Bai Qingxuan, mother and son, who have been staying in Qingmingyuan, heard that there was a huge battle in the Duke's mansion today, and that a total of more than 30 and nearly 40 servants from the five families were sold.
The woman was so frightened that she kept wiping her tears with a handkerchief: "If I had known, it would be better to stay in that village in peace and safety. After all, we are the masters. I thought I would enjoy the blessings when I arrived at the Duke's mansion, but who knew that I would be here before I even entered the mansion?
First I beat you like this, and now you have people looking at us! People who kill you easily like this..."
"Okay, mother! Stop talking!" Bai Qingxuan's wound was so painful that he was already so tired that he could only lie on the bed. He had a fierce look in his eyes, "Let's wait and see when I get better!"

A few days ago, His Majesty promoted Qin Lang with great fanfare and rewarded him. He made it clear that Qin Lang was the son of a noble family and set an example. All the aristocratic families in the capital looked at the direction of the wind and kept their dandy at home to study hard.
In the past few days, the business of restaurants, teahouses, flower houses, and boathouses in the capital city has become increasingly bleak day by day. Those young masters from aristocratic families who are used to playing around are also miserable at home.
It wasn't until the night banquet in the small palace that these dandies gathered together and told each other how miserable they were at home these past few days. Qin Lang, who was also at the night banquet, was constantly complained by the dandies who usually played with each other, and Qin Lang laughed stupidly one by one.
He bowed his head and drank wine to apologize.
Bai Qingyan was taken by the eldest princess and sat on the lower right side of the emperor's and queen's high seats. Directly across from him, King Qi and Princess Qi immediately stood up to greet the eldest princess. Bai Qingyan stood behind the eldest princess and saluted.
.
I remember that in March of the 16th year of Xuanjia, which was the next year, the first thing King Qi did when he was granted the title of crown prince and entered the East Palace was to preside over the treason case of Duke Zhen Guo Bai Weiting.
With the testimony of Liu Huanzhang and the letters found from the Bai family to the Duke of Zhen and the Prince of Nanyan County, the Bai family's guilt was settled in the hands of the King of Qi.
Later, King Qi, who was already the crown prince, came to the court to plead for mercy and hoped for a lighter sentence for the female members of the Bai family. He was reprimanded by the emperor and imprisoned in the East Palace to think about his faults.
At that time, she also hated King Qi. Now that she thought about her past life, the evidence was conclusive and King Qi was helpless as the prince.
She helped the eldest princess to sit down. She raised her eyes and saw Xiao Rongyan sitting on the seat behind King Qi. Seeing Xiao Rongyan sitting calmly, he smiled and nodded to her slightly. She tightened her palms and sat down with her eyes lowered, not knowing that Xiao Rongyan
Have you received the message?
Xiao Rongyan was sitting behind King Qi, which showed that King Qi had great regard for Xiao Rongyan.
"Chuntao..." She turned her head and covered her lips with a handkerchief and asked in a low voice, "Did your cousin deliver the letter?"
Chuntao knelt beside her and whispered: "Don't worry, girl. My cousin said that he asked a beggar to go to the door of Xiao's house. He only said that he had a letter for the housekeeper. He saw with his own eyes that the beggar delivered the letter to the housekeeper.
!That little beggar doesn’t know his cousin’s identity either.”
She can rest assured that Chen Qingsheng is doing things. Xiao Rongyan helped her a lot in his previous life. This time... I hope I can repay him a little.
When she heard the eunuchs singing "Emperor" and the Queen arriving, she held back the hatred in her heart and helped the eldest princess to stand up and kowtow to greet her.
It seemed that King Liang, who was seriously injured and lying on his bed, had improved greatly, and the emperor seemed to be in a particularly happy mood.
After sitting down, she also raised her glass, with a pair of clear and burning eyes... looking at the benevolent, righteous, moral and peaceful emperor who was raising his glass to congratulate the world, her eyes were deep.
Xiao Rongyan saw Bai Qingyan looking at the Emperor of Jin Dynasty with a calm look without any respect. He only found it interesting. He lowered his eyes and remembered the eight-character note that the butler showed him before entering the palace for the banquet - Palace banquet ambush, Qi Mansion
There is a ghost.
He raised his glass and drank the wine together with the Emperor of Jin Dynasty. He rubbed the wine glass, looked up at King Qi who was smiling at him, and smiled back.
