The news that the four girls of the White Mansion whipped the money-hungry troublemakers outside the Duke's Mansion and received fifty military sticks from the family law spread in the market.
Some people praise the high righteousness of the government, saying that I would rather the world fail me than let the world down!
Some people also think that the Duke's government is too weak. How can others bully their daughter Lang to resist and accept the family law?
But when this matter was mentioned, the people couldn't help but think of the eldest daughter of the Bai family's deafening and angry questions in front of the Duke's Mansion. For a moment... the Duke of Zhen's headstrong military campaign had led to a disastrous defeat in southern Xinjiang, which made people despise him.
Some people thought of King Xin who returned alive, and I don't know who first guessed... The idea that the Duke of the country was headstrong in using the army was probably because King Xin was trying to protect himself and put the blame for the defeated army on the deceased heroes.
Some people also suspect that the person behind the bribery of the soldiers' families to make trouble in front of the Duke's Mansion today is King Xin.
The rumors became more and more intense, and the three men became tigers, and the people believed that this was the truth.
In just half a day, people could be heard from every household in the capital city slandering King Xin in a low voice, and their words were very fierce.
There were also brave men who made a special trip to the door of Prince Xin's Mansion and spat before angrily turning their sleeves off and leaving.
The staff left in Prince Xin's Mansion were like ants on a hot pot. They gathered in the meeting hall for a long time to discuss a charter but could not come up with it.
"But fortunately, we have found out that the Bai family has not obtained the marching records now! Now... we have to find the marching records!" The staff of Prince Xin's Mansion stood under the bright light and frowned.
"This is the only thing we can do first! We'd better have people keep an eye on the Duke's Mansion. If anyone appears suspicious, come and report it immediately!"
The old man in green shirt standing under the lamp shook his head: "In reporting the military situation this time, King Xin was eager to cover up his mistakes and used the word 'willful military use'. His evasion was too conspicuous. It was a mistake! What a mistake!"

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, King Xin was about to return home, and the Duke's mansion suddenly encountered a great funeral. Fortunately, Mr. Dong usually ran the family in a strict manner, and everyone in the Bai family worked together. Although it was New Year's Day, it had only been three days since the news was received on New Year's Eve.
The government has made all the necessary preparations.
It's just that the eldest princess, her mother, and her aunts have been unable to decide on the matter of breaking the basin before the death.
Now all the boys in the Bai family are dead, leaving only a second-brother concubine who has not had time to be recorded in the family tree. It is still unclear whether the child in the fifth wife's belly is a boy or a girl.
Once the concubine Bai Qingxuan is allowed to throw the basin, it means that the Bai family recognizes Bai Qingxuan's identity, and even... entrusts the glory of the Bai family to Bai Qingxuan. If the position of the Duke of Zhenguo can be kept, this will be it.
Child inheritance.
But this son was prone to bloodshed, with a violent personality and no heart of benevolence. Neither the eldest princess nor the Dong family and other ladies were at ease in leaving the Bai family in the hands of Bai Qingxuan.
Several ladies discussed it all afternoon at the Changshou Courtyard of the eldest princess, but could not come up with a charter. However, the thoughtful servants below noticed the slightest hint and ran to the Qingming Courtyard to show their courtesy.
Even Bai Qingxuan's mother also took the money from the biological mother of the future Duke Zhen Guo. At the critical moment of the Duke's residence, she ignored the prohibition of the Crown Prince's wife, Dong's family, on the vegetarian diet and asked the kitchen for some food.
Her son brought blood swallows, and now he wanted to eat steamed ham with honey sauce, and now he wanted rouge and crystal elbows, and now he thought that the steamed cloud cake with sugar was too greasy, and now he thought that the maid serving him was not beautiful enough, so her son's pair of eyes were stained in vain.
Noble eyes.
It just so happened that some servants wanted to please the mother and son, and secretly sent delicacies to Qingmingyuan like a trick.
It was also heard that Bai Qingxuan was a maid who was greedy for lust. She had some thoughts that she shouldn't have and went to the Qingmingyuan just because she was pretty.
Bai Qingyan stood in front of the copper-shaded stove, listening to the steward she had placed in Qingmingyuan standing in front of her and talking about the affairs of Qingmingyuan in the past few days.
"The aunt in the second room made a rumor in the Qingming Courtyard... that whoever caused her son to be injured will definitely be punished with a stick in the future." The stewardess knew in her heart that she was talking about the eldest girl, and she couldn't.
Don’t report it.
"Thank you for your hard work, Grandma. Qingmingyuan still needs Grandma to keep an eye on it and not cause any trouble at this moment." She looked up at the experienced grandma in charge and warned.
"Don't worry, eldest lady! If anything happens, I will send someone to report to eldest lady right away," said the steward.
Chuntao sent the steward to the door and was about to open the curtain and go in to serve Bai Qingyan when she saw Nanny Tong hurriedly stepping into the gate of Qinghui Courtyard with a baggage in her arms.
Chuntao's eyes were hot, and she hurried forward to greet her. She bowed and said with red eyes and choked with sobs: "Mother Tong, you are back!"
Although on weekdays, Nanny Tong in Qinghui Courtyard had strict rules and strictly controlled all the servants, but after all, Nanny Tong was an old ginger, and the more trouble she encountered, the more calm she became.
Now that something as big as the sky is falling has happened in the Duke's mansion, the servants like them have a backbone now that Aunt Tong is back.
Aunt Tong helped Chuntao up, her eyes were red, and her stiff facial features became more solemn: "How is the big girl?! Can your body still hold up?!"
"Don't worry, mama! Everything is fine, big girl! You can hold on!" Chuntao burst into tears.
During the time when Aunt Tong was away, things happened one after another. Chuntao seemed to be able to hold on like a big girl, but she couldn't hold on as soon as Aunt Tong came back. When she thought of Chunyan, that mean-spirited bastard,
Chuntao couldn't help but cry when she thought about the outcome of the Duke's mansion being filled with men.
Before Grandma Tong came back, she had heard a lot of rumors about the eldest girl outside, but she still felt anxious and worried. Now she felt relieved after hearing what Chuntao said.
"I'll tidy up first, and then go see the girl!" After finishing speaking, Nanny Tong went into the side room to tidy up her clothes, stood in front of the brazier to dispel the cold air, and then went in to say hello to Bai Qingyan.
Nanny Tong suddenly heard that something big had happened in the Duke's Mansion. She returned home after a long journey. When she saw Bai Qingyan, her eyes turned red. She looked at Bai Qingyan and saw that Bai Qingyan seemed to be stronger than when she left.
Only then did I feel relieved.
She asked Chuntao to help Nanny Tong sit on the embroidered pier, and asked: "Nanny has come back in a hurry. Is the family well settled?"
Grandma Tong's son was seriously ill, so she went back to take care of her son. Originally, she had asked someone to send a message to Grandma Tong, asking her to return home after the Chinese New Year. She thought she heard about the loss of the Bai family boy, and hurried there immediately.
When you come back, your loyalty will be seen.
"The arrangements have been made. Miss, don't worry. When the old slave came back this time, he was entrusted by the eldest nurse, Aunt Jin, to bring your two wet nurses back from Zhuangzi! Aunt Jin said that now the Bai family
Important matters are now, and it is the time to hire people. Please ask your two wet brothers to come back to serve the crown prince’s wife and the eldest daughter. Aunt Jin asked me to tell the eldest daughter... Don’t be afraid, the eldest daughter. All the loyal servants of the Bai family are here. Leave it to the prince.
