About Me Than the Heroine Su

Chapter 109: make count

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people present changed.

Bai Chu understood the Queen's intentions, and his heart was relieved, but it was much more relaxed.

Contrary to her, Bai Yinhua subconsciously tensed her heartstrings, her hands covered in wide sleeves clenched tightly, and dense sweat filled her palms.

The heart that was beating more and more violently in the chest did not calm down until the queen spoke again.

"Although Prince An's side concubine is not a legitimate wife, she is a married woman after all, so how can she make a rumor with an outsider, and everyone knows it, Bai side concubine, tell me, in the end, what's going on?"

The casual contempt in these words, if before, Bai Yinhua would have been secretly sullen, but now, as long as the queen doesn't mention the rumor that she is related to the robbery in the suburbs of Beijing, she will first breathe a sigh of relief.

Bai Yinhua knelt down full of grievances, and her tone was full of sincerity: "Reporting to the Empress, my concubine is really wronged in this matter, yes, when my concubine went out of the palace once, she did meet an old friend, and it was inevitable that they exchanged greetings twice. However, the concubine dared to guarantee her life, and there was absolutely no personal love involved in it, and the idea of ​​a lonely man and a widow living in the same room was even more groundless. At that time, the concubine was still accompanied by the servants rewarded by the prince... The Queen Mother, The concubine urges you to look carefully at the incident and return the concubine's innocence."

Bai Yinhua was smart enough to move King An out. Also, if she really had two hearts, King An would be the first person who couldn't spare her. Is there anyone who could justify her name better than him?

Bai Chu raised his eyes lightly and glanced at Xu Yan, and while she was startled, sparks slowly appeared in the bottom of his eyes, which became more and more intense.

Xu Huan really took a lot of effort to suppress the anger in his heart. He didn't believe that Prince An would do this for Bai Yinhua, and he felt that he was being blinded by Bai Yinhua.

"Empress Empress, it stands to reason that the wife of the imperial concubine Bai Fang is responsible for the concubine, but the prince is dedicated to the concubine Bai, and the wife naturally believes in the innocence of the imperial concubine. Press it down."

Even though what she said was to excuse Bai Yinhua, she actually had ulterior motives. Since ancient times, things like rumors and rumors have been suppressed and rebounded more and more, especially when these are spread among the common people, the law does not blame the public, and the general Everyone can't be arrested.

At most, it is to say "Don't arbitrarily talk about your honor" on the surface, but people will still say it in private, but they don't talk about it, and the people may still think that this matter is more true.

Bai Yinhua could understand the rationale of it, and hated Xu Huan so much, but she dared not move under the eyes of the queen, her beautiful eyes flowed, and the next moment she looked at Bai Chu softly, pleadingly: " There is absolutely no connection between the concubine and the third young master of the Shen family, and the third young lady knows it best."

Bai Chu could feel the burning pain condensed by a few lines of sight on her body, but her outside character has always been introverted and docile, so she trembled slightly uneasy, and whispered: "Yes, yes, eldest sister, No, although Concubine Bai had a marriage contract with her husband in the past, but since Concubine Bai married Prince An, they have not seen each other again."

Xu Huan sneered secretly, caught her mistake, and didn't even bother to pretend to be dignified and virtuous on the face: "Mrs. Shen San Shao said, is it possible that after the third young master Shen married you, he was still with Concubine Bai. Can you come and go?"

Bai Chu waved her hand hurriedly: "No, no." She timidly avoided Xu Huan's sharp gaze, "It's just the normal communication between the Shen Bai family, not like what Princess An said, that... …”

Xu Huan disliked her flimsy appearance, and looked away with a bit of disgust: "If you don't know about it, Mrs. San Shao shouldn't talk too much."

Because of King An, she still had some patience with Bai Yinhua, but she didn't have so much scruples about Bai Chu.

The empress couldn't help frowning, and she called out in a half-warning voice, "Princess An, don't be rude."

Don't look at the face of the monk, but also look at the face of the Buddha.

Bai Chuhua was nothing, he couldn't bear to have a mother-in-law who was the eldest princess.

In front of the queen, Xu Huan is always the most well-behaved.

"Yes," she replied with a smile, then turned her head and said embarrassedly to Bai Chu, "Sorry, Mrs. San Shao, I was in a hurry for a while, I hope you don't forget your heart."

The queen nodded with satisfaction, and ignored Bai Chu's reaction. In her opinion, Xu Huangui had already given enough face for the princess to apologize to Bai Chu. She should accept it, and even be flattered.

The queen coughed lightly and said softly: "However, Mrs. Shen, there are rumours going on at the moment, just for the sake of Concubine Bai's innocence, you should also be straightforward and say that you really don't care about her relationship with Yuzhi at all. Don't you know?"

There is so much meaning in the Queen's words.

Bai Chu's eyes flickered, his eyes swept across Xu Huan's body without a trace, and he said respectfully, "Reporting to the Empress, the ministers and women live in the inner house and stay at home, I really haven't heard any rumors, and I believe in the husband's. Morality, you can never do things that are privately shared with married husbands."

Just when the Empress frowned slightly, she changed her words and said hesitantly, "But when it comes to who the eldest sister has an old relationship with, the court lady..."

She looked like I knew something but didn't dare to say it, which made Xu Hao anxiously say, "What do you know? In front of the Empress, how dare you hide it!"

Bai Yinhua's face turned pale, and her eyes were fixed on Bai Chu's face. She had seen Bai Chu's true temperament, how could she be so weak and careful now.

At the focal point of many lines of sight, Bai Chu said softly and slowly: "Before getting married, the minister's wife accidentally saw a jade pendant at the eldest sister's place. On the top was the pattern of the rising sun, and the carving was exquisite. It was as if the first rays of the rising sun could be seen from the jade."

"The court lady couldn't forget it for a long time after seeing it, so I was very impressed."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Yan was stunned, the smile on her face disappeared in an instant, she turned her head to look at Bai Yinhua, her beautiful eyes seemed to be spewing murderous arrows.

Bai Yinhua breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then he probably noticed the cold air projected by Xu Huan, his face was still a little pale, and he lowered his head silently.

In comparison, the Queen's palace is much more powerful, her complexion is still graceful, but her eyes darken a little.

With these changes, the jade pendant described by Geyin Baichu was the personal treasure of King An. During the great chaos of the year, the previous emperor deposed the crown prince and sent people to encircle the East Palace. Since then, he has ignored this place. A year later, suddenly a famous servant was hired early, and the maid in ambush in the East Palace secretly took the prince's direct son, the current Prince An, out of the East Palace, trying to throw the child into a well and drown.

Fortunately, the Yulin Army found the jade pendant that fell from King An, and only then determined the correct path, arrived in time, and rescued King An who was still in the baby in time.

This was made by the waste prince when he found out that the princess was pregnant, and he summoned the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry to make it for him. The rising sun is the word for "rising".

This jade pendant is extremely precious, and at the same time it is a taboo that cannot be said.

But its importance to King An does not need to be overstated.

If he gave it to Bai Yinhua, it shows how real his affection for her is.

Bai Chu had never seen this jade pendant, and Bai Yinhua wasn't stupid either. His name was uncertain, so how could he carelessly show off a man's belongings.

However, in the original book, Bai Yinhua rescued King An who was seriously injured. When he left, he accidentally left this jade pendant behind.

Bai Yinhua didn't know these secrets of the royal past, but he still found out the identity of King An from Shen Yu's mouth.

The book has a detailed description of the object that led to the reunion of the male and female protagonists. Bai Chu only thinks about it sporadically, which is enough for the queen and Xu Yan to associate.

The queen came back to her senses in just a moment, turned her head to look at Xu Huan, who was staring straight at Bai Yinhua, her brows wrinkled, she coughed lightly, and glanced at Xu Huan, who had heard the sound, as if warning. at a glance.

The reason why the empress thought of summoning Bai Chu to the palace today was originally to take advantage of her jealousy as a woman. Bai Chu, as the concubine who grew up with Bai Yinhua, if she was extremely jealous, she would say something about Bai Yinhua impulsively. After that, the queen came out to punish Bai Yinhua as an elder, and it became a matter of course.

In the future, everyone will accuse Bai Yinhua who is not upright, or Bai Chuhua who betrayed his sister, and will not suspect that the queen is deliberately embarrassing Bai Yinhua because of Xu Huan.

Now it is as she expected, but the key is that the queen dare not take it.

Involving the abolition of the prince in the previous dynasty, even if the queen is in a high position, she has to consider whether it will cause the emperor's dissatisfaction.

But the Queen wanted to suppress this matter, but Xu Huan refused to let it go. Yes, everyone was concerned about King An's background, and she still didn't believe that Bai Yinhua could teach King An to her privately, and even pay her back. Explain the matter of giving her the abandoned prince's objects.

"Concubine Bai, tell me, is what Mrs. Shen said is true or false? You really had an affair with someone before leaving the cabinet!" Xu Yanman asked sharply in disbelief, "How can you be worthy of the prince like this? your thoughts?"

Bai Yinhua knelt on the ground, wishing she could just grab something to cover Xu Huan's mouth. She couldn't figure out how Bai Chu saw the jade pendant. She obviously put it away carefully after she got it. , Even when I was inquiring with Shen Yuzhi, I only said that I accidentally saw the tricks when I went out, and I thought it was novel and beautiful.

Even the red sleeves and green yao around her have never seen the pattern on the jade pendant. Where did Bai Chu know about it?

Countless questions popped up in her mind, and Bai Yinhua didn't have time to tell them apart. So far, she had no choice but to deny it firmly.

If the early acquaintances between her and Prince An were exposed, they would bear the brunt of the brunt of the crime. Prince An could not escape the crime of bullying the king, and even she would be implicated.

While the queen was still hesitating, Xu Huan preemptively convicted her of the crime. Now, it is not easy for her to step down. She can only follow her will and continue to investigate, and finally watch to expel Prince An.

Zuo Yuanyuan just wanted to punish Bai Yinhua a little, so that she would not dare to flatter and please King An for a short time.

However, after waiting for the queen to figure it out, Bai Yinhua denied it and refused to admit that Bai Chu said that he had seen this jade pendant on her body.

Xu Huan was aggressive, but Bai Yinhua didn't give in.

The empress was impatient, and did not want to see Xu Huan become the person who blamed Bai Yinhua and was blamed by King An, so she simply pointed the finger at Bai Chu, and said solemnly:

"Mrs. Shen, you and Concubine Bai have their own opinions. For a while, I don't know who to believe. Why don't you tell me what you know about Concubine Bai, and I will also I want to see who is so daring to dare to lie in front of this palace and deliberately deceive!"

These words, the Queen's tone was not serious, but every word and sound showed coldness.

Even if Bai Chu only blurted out Bai Yinhua's fault in a fit of anger, at this moment, in order not to be convicted by the queen, he could only bite the bullet and force Bai Yinhua to admit it.

Bai Chu sighed softly, this mantis catching cicadas, the oriole is behind, how much is the queen playing?

It's a pity, if she had done a little bit to help the queen and Xu Huan to deal with Bai Yinhua, it would be fine. After all, she and the male and female protagonists are naturally hostile in their positions. potential?

But now she didn't want to.

Xu Huan's confident and arrogant demeanor is really annoying, especially when you just looked at her with contempt and nonchalance, Bai Chu couldn't help but wonder what it would be like when she found out that she fell on the hand of someone she regarded as an ant. expression.

In addition, the queen passed herself into the palace as a spearman today, and just pushed herself out to protect Xu Huan.

Is it so useful to work with her?

The feeling of being cocooned by oneself is unpleasant, so coincidentally, Bai Chu is wanting to see their unpleasant appearance.

It must be fun~
