About Me Than the Heroine Su

Chapter 128: scandal

In a twinkling of an eye, it is another year of spring. After a long time of calm, the capital is finally lively again. The reason is that the emperor ordered to worship the ancestors at the Taimiao Temple in the eastern suburb of the imperial city after January.

This is an annual event.

Outsiders watch it lively, but for everyone in the vortex of the power center, this is the focus of competition between several forces.

After all, several princes came of age one after another and entered the dynasty one after another. Apart from the fact that the marriage date of the fourth prince was not too conspicuous, the first three princes, either openly or secretly, all had traces of their actions.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Bai Chu. Recently, she has been concentrating on the Wutong Courtyard, and excitedly picked up all the piano and chess that she just came here to learn, all as a way to pass the time. It's long, but I don't think it's interesting.

On the other hand, Xiao Ba was so bored in her head that she almost panicked. Seeing that there was no progress between her and Shen Yu, she lacked energy and could only whisper in her ear all day long:

【Chu Chu, what are you going to do? The lifespan of human beings is only a little bit, if you drag it on, maybe we won't be able to complete the task when Bai Chuhua's lifespan reaches the limit. 】

When Bai Chu heard this, he became interested: [What? Do you know what is the lifespan of the original owner? 】

Xiao Ba was shocked, [I'm not, I didn't, I just said it casually. 】

The tone was flustered and guilty, and there was almost no silver tael here.

Bai Chu smiled and ignored him.

Xiao Ba hesitated in her mind, thinking about it, and finally came up with a reason, [Chuchu, don't you want to know what happened to the male and female masters? If I have enough energy, I may help you. Check it out, really, I promise to tell you everything word for word! 】

No matter how you said it, Bai Chu didn't reply to it, and he didn't think it was as noisy as at the beginning. Xiao Ba couldn't help but lower his tone and said angrily: "Chu Chu, you don't really plan to be like the emperor said. Reconcile with Shen Yu, right? 】

This question has been over and over again for a long time, but it is afraid to ask it directly.

It is obvious that other people's systems can control their own hosts to the death, but it is too useless to have to persuade the host to remind the host to remember to complete the task every day.

Bai Chu used to ignore it as much as possible, but when Xiao Ba started sobbing softly in her mind, the resentful cry made people get goosebumps, and there was an intensifying trend, so she couldn't ignore it.

【What are you crying for? 】Bai Chu said helplessly, 【Didn't you say that the mission failed only if Shen Yuzhi's favorability value dropped to 100, or if his happiness value dropped to a negative value? It's never going to be that way. 】

[But, but, if Chu, Chu Chu, you are separated from the male and the wife, the mission will never be completed. 】The grief in Xiaoba's voice is almost overflowing, 【I, I still want to break the 0007 system and set the highest record of completing the first task in the shortest time, now it is impossible woo woo woo... maybe It’s still at the bottom, woo woo woo…]

Bai Chu can't wait to put it into his own mind and catch it out, "Okay, don't cry, little eight, even if you are not the fastest to finish, you should be the fastest to fail, right? 】

Little Eight choked back: [No, no...]

[Then let me ask you, isn't that 0007 the fastest to complete the task? Then it counts the first few tasks until it fails, how long does it last? 】

Xiao Ba's cry gradually subsided, and he began to think seriously: [It seems to be fifty-six years... 0007 completed the task very quickly, but because the tenth task was too difficult, it is the future of the interstellar war. In the background, its host was accidentally killed by someone, and 0007 failed. 】

Bai Chu smiled when he heard this, and his tone became softer: [Look, isn't it, I haven't even reached eighteen now, if I can live safely to ten years old at this time, your mission will be undefeated, right? Longer than 0007? 】

Xiao Ba thought for a while, and said in surprise: [Yes! 】In a flash, he hesitated again, 【Yes, but the longest record of unbeaten time in our headquarters is three hundred years...】

[Xiao Ba, you are a system that just left the factory, so you can't expect too much from yourself. 】 Bai Chu said slowly, "You can learn more in your first mission, lay a solid foundation, and then do other missions in the future. Naturally, you can get twice the result with half the effort. Three hundred years is nothing special. Anyway, your system is not. It will die, not to mention a hundred years, even a thousand years can be, right? 】

Xiao Ba was dazed by her long words, and there was a passion that had never been seen in Zitong's life, with a high-spirited and firm tone: [Chu Chu, you are right, I can't give up so easily. Well, one day, I will be squeezed into the red list of the strongest system! 】

Bai Chu smiled with satisfaction; [Of course, Xiao Ba is the best in my heart. 】

【Hee hee hee. 】Xiao Ba smiled shyly, suddenly remembered, and said anxiously, "But if you don't complete the task, Chuchu, you can't go to other worlds with me to continue the task, your body's lifespan is over now. , you're going to really die. 】

【What do you do when you live so long. 】Bai Chu lazily leaned back on the pile of soft pillows, 【I don't have an unforgettable lover to save, nor do I have any deep hatred to avenge. Life is short, as long as it is happy. . 】

Bai Chu has never thought about going back since the time traveled through the stall. She probably has a cold and indifferent temperament, and she has no attachment to her previous life.

Xiaoba let out a long sigh. Before he came out to do the task, he checked a lot of information. It was clearly stated in the book that the host would take the initiative to do the task in order to have eternal life and redeem points.

Why is reality so different from imagination?

Anyway, it does not expect to complete the task, as long as it does not fail and let him be recalled to scrap it.

Xiao Ba shook his head and thought silently, next time I look for the host, I must see it clearly, and I must never encounter someone like Chu Chu again.

...

The Wutong Courtyard is clean and peaceful, but the undercurrent is surging outside, and the edges are intertwined.

To sacrifice to the heavens and ancestors, the crown prince accompanied the emperor in the past few weeks in charge.

This dynasty has not yet established a prince. In the past few years, the emperor alone led the princes and civil and military officials to pray. However, this time is different. There is a rumor from the Ministry of Rites. Blessings".

This news is too sensitive. Kneeling and reading Zhu Wen was the position of the crown prince in the original articles of association.

Everyone in the world felt that this was the meaning of the sage's implicit disclosure that he wanted to establish a prince.

Indeed, the eldest prince is almost thirty, and the second prince can see that the children can make soy sauce. When the princes grow up, they will naturally set their eyes on a higher position.

On the contrary, the three or four princes who knew at a glance that they were impossible quietly kept a low profile and secretly gathered momentum.

It's just that everyone knows in their hearts that the first prince's biological mother died early, and his mother's family is not visible.

Therefore, although the smoke of gunpowder is everywhere, they are all acting in the dark. In their hearts, most of them have tacitly agreed that this time, the Holy Admiral will hand over the heavy responsibility to the second prince, the heir.

Unexpectedly, just before the ceremony, a scandal involving the Xu family suddenly broke out. The parties involved were Xu Zhou, the second son of the Prince of Cheng'en, and his wife Liu Shi.

At the root of it, it's just the words "favoring a concubine and destroying his wife".

It's not new. Among the so-called wealthy families in the capital city, if this crime is just slapped down with one stick, it will be able to beat more than half of it. Because the law does not blame the public, now it is not a sin to spoil a concubine and kill a wife.

But the matter of the Xu family is serious. The Liu family is in a state of anger and dying. After the maid by her side slipped out of the Chengenhou mansion at the risk of death, the outside world, even her parents' family, only knew that she was in a difficult and miserable state. situation.

Life is at stake, and many people who are unforgivable have caused people to lament after their death. What's more, the Liu family never had a bad reputation, but she was only a weak woman with no power to hold a chicken, but she was arrogant and domineering in the concubine's room. And the husband's blindness has fallen to this point.

By the time these rumors spread to Bai Chu's ears along the wind, it was no longer clear how much was true and how much was fueled by someone with a heart.

Not only she, even the Marquis of Cheng'en who lived under the same roof, didn't know much about Liu's affairs. In comparison, Shi's, as the mistress of the house, should be considered to understand.

But when Xu Litao came to question angrily, he asked about Liu's usual situation in the mansion, but Shi knew little about it.

Xu Litao was so angry that he even said the words "You are simply unbearable to be a mother". Shi's face was pale, her lips were trembling and she couldn't even say the words to beg for mercy. He slumped to the ground softly, staring blankly at Xu Litao's back as he flung his sleeves away, his dress was soaked by the tea that he had just knocked to the ground.

I don't know how long it took before the nanny beside her carefully stepped forward to help her up: "Madam, the prince has already left, you should get up first, the ground is cold, don't hurt your body."

Shi and Xu Litao have been working together for decades. They are not interfering like the sea, but they are also loving couples who respect each other. She has always been proud of this, but she never expected that one day, the other party will glare at her, and the words are like the sharpest words. The blade, stabbed straight into her softest spot.

Seeing her stunned expression, she felt distressed and felt wronged for her, and sighed: "Sir, too, how can you take care of this junior's house affairs everywhere, and the second young master is confused, but you are implicated in being wronged."

To say that Shi is really innocent, but it is not the same. Women have different standards for husbands and sons.

At the beginning, Xu Zhou liked the girl who grew up beside him, but Shi was dissatisfied that he cared too much about that girl, and he valued her more than the mother-in-law.

So Shi kept dragging Xu Zhou to collect the girl's house until Liu's entry, but after a little push, Liu was jealous, and she couldn't tolerate that girl, plus the little girl who just got married, who had not cultivated successfully. The calmness of the city and the means, a careless one, was a thorn in the eyes, but he also revealed his deeds and was discovered by Xu Zhou.

It was only then that Shi Shi had regrets.

Unfortunately it's too late.

After being silent for a long time, her voice was hoarse, and she said slowly: "Go, tie up the second young master, and send it to the gate of Liu Mansion, and beat him with sticks until he admits his mistake."

Mammy was shocked and couldn't bear to call: "Madam!"

"go!"

Shi swallowed the faint smell of blood in his throat, "Also, prepare a car for me. As a mistress, it is because I am not strict with my son and my poor housekeeping. I... personally go to apologize to the Empress."

There was a cold light in her dark eyes.
