Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 84
Old Mr. Bai from Yongping Bo's Mansion had an appointment with Mr. Zhang's family to have tea early this morning, and the special orderer took out the green smoke tea that Mrs. Bai gave when he returned home to visit his relatives, and Mr. Zhang's family praised him very much.

Old Master Bai was very pleased with what he heard. After a few cups of tea, he and Master Zhang talked endlessly about their daughter and son-in-law.

The Bai family is the youngest daughter from the first line, and the only daughter under his knees. She has a soft and demure temperament since she was a child, and she and the second master of the Li family are just like husband and wife, a match made in heaven!

Now that the Li family is in full swing, if the Bai family can get involved in this kind of marriage, what else is there to say?
The master of the Zhang family flattered the two of them without hesitation, and before he finished speaking, a servant hurried over.

The old man Bai took a look around, and seeing the young boy's anxious expression on his face, he felt a little worried, and couldn't help scolding:
"What are you doing in a hurry? There are no rules!"

The young servant shrunk his neck nonchalantly, still bowed and looked at Old Master Bai, not daring to speak.

The old master Bai was suspicious, he glared at the boy, got up and handed over to the master of the Zhang family and said:
"Madam Xu is looking for something to do with me, drink tea here first, and then have a hand-to-hand conversation with brother Zhang Xian when I come back."

Master Zhang hurriedly got up and handed him off, saying it's okay.

The old man Bai and the boy walked around a stone wall and stopped under the hanging flower door.

The old man Bai glanced at the boy, and urged:
"What's the matter? Make you so flustered?"

The boy looked around, and then wept:
"Grandpa, something happened, and the third master asked people from Jingzhao Mansion to arrest him."

Old Master Bai almost dropped his jaw:

"What are you talking about? Jingzhao Mansion? Why are you arresting the third child for no reason?"

The boy said with a pale face:

"It is said that the third master murdered Imperial Physician Fang and has now been imprisoned by the yamen. Old master! You...you go and have a look."

Old Mr. Bai was so frightened that he lost his mind, and walked to the front hall without caring about Mr. Zhang who was waiting in the garden.

The first room of the Bai family, the second room, and Mrs. Bai were already waiting anxiously in the front hall. When they saw Mrs. Bai coming, they swarmed forward like ants on a hot pot.

"Boss!"

The old man Bai ran over panting all the way, and said to the old man of the Bai family:

"What's going on? How could the third child get involved in a life lawsuit?"

Bai Jingfu, the elder of the Bai family, personally stepped forward to help the old master Bai to sit down on the chair, and said in a tight voice:
"My son just heard about it, and I don't know what's going on. But according to the officials, it's the youngest who confessed himself."

"what?"

The old man Bai's figure flickered, and he almost fell off the chair. The poor second master of the Bai family, Bai Jingru, quickly held him up.

"The third brother made a confession? How...how is this possible? Why did he go to murder Fang Taiyi?"

Bai Jingru also turned pale with shock, and said slowly:

"Father, my eldest brother and I will go to Jingzhao Mansion to see the situation in person. Do you want to discuss this matter with your sister's house? After all, Jingzhao Mansion Yin works under the Prime Minister's errand."

Upon hearing this, Old Master Bai immediately said:
"That's right! You should go to the prime minister's mansion quickly and ask your brother-in-law to come forward."

Before the words were finished, the porter came to report that someone from the Li family had arrived.

Master Bai stood up abruptly, exchanged a glance with everyone, his eyes lit up.

Grandma Sun brought a maid into the door. The old lady of the Bai family saw her and went up to greet her with a smile on her face:
"Nurse is a rare visitor, why are you here in person now?"

Nanny Sun raised her eyes and glanced at Old Madam Bai without making a sound, and took the maid from the Li family to bow to everyone.

Old Master Bai's heart trembled for no reason when he saw that Nanny Sun's expression was not right.

"What happened to Grandma Sun?"

Grandma Sun glanced at everyone in the Bai family, paused, and said seriously:
"The old slave came here today at the order of the old lady. I have important matters to discuss with your house. Please stay away from other people."

Old Mrs. Bai was startled, and she exchanged a glance with Mrs. Bai.

Old Master Bai was concerned about Bai Jingdong's matter in his heart, thought for a while and said:

"Some things happened to the dog today, if mammy is not in a hurry, you might as well wait."

"Old Master Bai is at ease, Mr. Xiang and the second master have both gone to Jingzhao Mansion, and the third master of your mansion is safe and secure now"

Before Old Master Bai could finish speaking, Nanny Sun said in a low voice.

When old master Bai heard this, he frowned. Today, Nanny Sun's words were alienated, which gave him a faint sense of foreboding.

The old lady Bai hurriedly winked at the second wife, and after a while, the maid in the front hall retreated, leaving only the eldest wife and the second wife.

Grandma Sun let out a breath slowly, and then explained what happened today.

After hearing this, Mrs. Bai fainted immediately, and the two daughter-in-laws screamed in fright, and hurriedly called the maid to carry Mrs. Bai back to the house.

If Old Master Bai hadn't been in a rather strong body, he would have almost fainted together with Mrs. Bai.

Supported by Bai Jingfu, he stood up tremblingly, looked at Nanny Sun but couldn't say a word.

After a while, Old Master Bai clenched his fists and said in a trembling voice:

"I'm going to Jingzhao Mansion myself, I want to ask Hui Niang face to face."

"Father--!"

Bai Jingfu looked at Old Master Bai's pale face, and called out worriedly.

The old man of the Bai family waved his hand to him silently, and only took two steps before the man was loaded straight down.
"Father--!"

"Grandpa—!"

Everyone screamed in shock and hurriedly stretched out their hands to help, but they saw the old man of the Bai family twitch twice, and he lost his breath on the spot.

The front hall suddenly exploded, and the sound of wailing and crying resounded through the sky, which shocked Master Zhang who was waiting quietly in the back garden.

Inside the Jingzhao Mansion, Qiu Tiande was pacing back and forth in the inner hall with his sleeves on his sleeves as he waited for those who could not reach the Yongpingbo Mansion.

What a big deal today!
The third master of the Bai family teamed up with the second wife of the Li family to assassinate the Tai Hospital, not to mention, almost killed Mrs. Xiangye, Princess Showa of Xiliang!

Qiu Tiande looked at Li Xiang and the second master of the Li family who were sitting silently beside him, not knowing how to comfort him for a while.

"Come here. I'm going to Bai's house to remind you."

Qiu Tiande waited impatiently, and ordered outside.

Before the words were finished, the yamen servant brought someone in, it was Bai Jingfu, the uncle of the Bai family, and Bai Jingru, the second master.

Mr. Qiu was about to speak, but saw that the two masters of the Bai family were both dressed in plain white mourning attire, so they couldn't help being stunned.

Li Qin looked at the two uncles of the Bai family with dull eyes, and got up with a wooden face:
"this is"

The two brothers of the Bai family arched their hands towards Li Qin, and said with red eyes:
"Father, he was so angry just now that he left."

Li Qin's body trembled, his eyes turned red, and he bowed his head for a long time before saying his condolences.

Li Sheng raised his eyes, looked at the two of them with compassion, and remained silent.

The second master of the Bai family stepped forward, bowed with a pale face and said:

"Lord Qiu, Mr. Xiang. My sister and third brother. Is there something hidden about this matter?"

Qiu Tiande sighed in his heart for a while, and told everyone about the arrest of Mr. Bai in the morning, and finally said seriously:
"At that time, all the stolen goods were obtained, and the third master of the Bai family wanted to attack Zhou Youcai, and many people saw it. Bai Jingdong had already confessed to the crime, and his subordinates confessed that he had assassinated Fang's doctor. Zhou Youcai presented the hidden account book again, and it contained I remember Mrs. Li's dark shares"

"Just now I ordered someone to investigate, and now there are all the evidence for authentication, and Mrs. Li has also confessed here."

The two brothers of the Bai family looked at each other, and their hearts sank.

"My lord, can I see my siblings?"

Bai Jingfu still had a little fantasy, he wanted to listen to the two of them for his father, even if there was only one sentence!
Qiu Tiande was stunned for a moment, then glanced sideways at the silent Li Xiang, and then nodded.

The siblings of the Bai family have special identities, and were detained separately in a prison in a side courtyard by the Jingzhao Mansion.

The two brothers Bai Jingfu hugged Mr. Qiu, and walked in wearing dazzling mourning clothes.

For a moment, heart-piercing cries came from the prison
