Rebirth of the noble daughter

Chapter 197 197. Maintenance
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Bai Siruo anxiously pulled the wound on his back, and his underwear also slipped off, revealing all the large bruises and red and swollen whip wounds on his back in Xiao Muqian's eyes.

Bai Siruo was shy and wanted to call Haitang in, but Xiao Muqian stepped forward and covered her underwear up.

He squatted in front of her and looked at Bai Siruo so closely for the first time, as if he wanted to engrave her image in his heart.

"I'm not talking nonsense. Since I dare to swear, I won't break it. You can recuperate well at home. Don't worry about the crazy talk outside. I won't let anyone who hurt you go!"

When he said this, a trace of hostility flashed in his eyes, and Bai Siruo was terrified when he saw it.

Her impression of Xiao Muqian has always been that he is a refined and quiet person, but she forgot that he grew up in the Liangzhou Army since he was a child, and he is different from the flamboyant fists and embroidered legs in the Eastern Capital.

Being so protected by others, Bai Siruo was moved with tears in his eyes.

So he explained solemnly, "I have nothing to do with Lu Yuanfeng, it's just that he saved me a few years ago, so I wanted to help him find the imperial doctor, but I didn't expect him to..."

"I believe you."

There was no rhetoric, just three simple words, which completely broke Bai Siruo's seemingly strong heart.

Since her accident, she has carried too much trouble, remorse, self-blame, and sadness in her heart, but she has held back all of them. Even when her mother was crying sadly in front of her bed, she pretended to be strong.

Only at this moment, in front of Xiao Muqian, can she really let go of everything, lower her head and bury herself in the quilt, and after a while, there is a low whimpering sound, Xiao Muqian holds her exposed hand, without saying a word, but wins More than a thousand words.

The turmoil in the Bai family is not over yet, but the impeachment in the court has become more and more serious.

There was a lot of talk about the Bai family's incident yesterday, but anyway, it was a matter of the house. At most, the Bai family's private morals were endless, and the children were not strictly disciplined. But the Lin family was different. They used the Jingji Division to search for the lost Daughter, this is a felony!

So, in the court hall, those adults who impeached Lin Wang spoke neatly one by one, wishing to convict the whole Lin family of treason. Emperor Qi felt impatient when he heard it at first, and his face became more and more ugly later on.

"That's enough. One or two of you want to impeach Lin Aiqing, all you want is to convict him, but last night I already beat him up, fined his salary, and made him shut up at home and think about his mistakes. What else do you want?"

"Your Majesty, General Lin's move is to treat the court law as nothing. If it is just such a punishment, I am afraid that others will feel that His Majesty is benevolent, and they will follow suit in the future. Then the guards of the capital city can all be under the command of the general, no Obedience to the king's order? How can it be so!"

The one who spoke was a member of Wei Guogong's party, and he was the one who was most severely impeached this time.

If Lin Wang can be removed from the position of the commander of the Gyeonggi Division and arranged for their people to go up, wouldn't it mean that the entire Eastern Capital City is under their control.

The more he thought about it, the more vicious the impeachment became, and he pretended to be an outspoken admonisher, which made Emperor Qi feel sick.

"Isn't my benevolence bad? If I'm not benevolent, I'm afraid I'll die ten or a hundred times just because of the dirty things you've done."

When Emperor Qi said this, his eyes were on Wei Guogong, and the meaning of warning was self-evident.

The official was still filled with righteous indignation, and his expression of swearing to death suddenly froze, and then he was lightly swept away by Emperor Qi, his face was as pale as snow, and he prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to speak any more.

The result of Meng Da's overnight investigation was exactly as the Bai family said. Wei Guogong instigated that person to kidnap the Bai family's daughter. Now rumors are spreading outside, ruining the reputation of the Bai family's daughter. If Bai Siruo is really forced to death, then The Bai family and the Wei family are in an endless situation.

Having been king for many years, the balance of pros and cons in the court and the way of the emperor are naturally perfect.

It is necessary to shake the mountain and shake the tiger, but also to check and balance, so in this matter, it is necessary to help the Bai family and not let the Wei family succeed, so he said without doubt.

"This matter, Lin Wang also had a reason for it and he had long since expressed remorse. I punished him and beat him. If there are still people who want to hold on, then the commander of the Jingji Division will be thrown to him. Whenever there is a thief in the capital who makes trouble for the people, I will punish him from the nine clans!"

As soon as these words came out, the courtiers who spoke loudly lowered their heads.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish, let alone a place where people live, how can there be no bad people at all?

It was clearly Emperor Qi's claim to defend the Lin family.

As a courtier, if you have to fight against the emperor, you will either be a lone minister who remonstrates with death, or a traitor who conspires against you. They are neither of them. The reason for this is just to gain an official title.

When Duke Wei heard this, he also knew that the matter was about to be revealed. The most important thing right now is the expedition of the Ninth Prince. If this is delayed, it will be difficult to realize what they planned.

Since Emperor Qi wanted to protect the Bai family, he simply took a step back and said to Emperor Qi, "Your Majesty, there seems to be a different interpretation of the arrest of Grandpa Bai's granddaughter. In order to protect the reputation of the Bai family, please clean up these things." Gossip and gossip, the only way to restore Bai's daughter's innocence."

They are all old foxes who have not spoken clearly, but they already know each other's meaning.

Since the Wei family made a concession, they naturally wanted to give some favors to the Bai family. After thinking for a while, Emperor Qi directly ordered, "I will pass on my will, immediately ennoble Bai Siruo, the daughter of the Bai family, as the princess, give her the title of Anping, and reward her with a fief." For Qizhou. When Mu Qian comes back with the army, he can prepare to marry according to the royal princess’s support. As for the gangster who kidnapped people, he is probably the remnant of a rebel. Bai Xiang has worked half his life for the Jin Dynasty and has become a thorn in their side. They can’t deal with him Let's attack Bai's daughter, it's hateful and even more murderous!"

When he said this, he narrowed his eyes, and said to Wei Guogong, "Leave this matter to the Duke of Wei, and be sure to investigate the remaining evil party members behind him!"

Wiping his own buttocks by himself, everyone who understands Qidi's deeds understands, so he once again shouted long live the tsunami!

When the imperial decree was delivered to the Bai family, it was with gongs and drums.

The people who watched the excitement, on the one hand, they didn't wait for the adulterous man, and on the other hand, they didn't see the Bai family's disposal of the elopement daughter, but they didn't expect to hear the news that the Bai family's daughter was promoted.

The previous county head had a good reputation, but the current county head even has a fief, which is three points more powerful than his mother, Princess Wen Yi.

In this way, it can be considered whether it is extremely peaceful or not, and life is saved from a desperate situation.

After the Bai family received this grace, the rumors in the market changed direction again.

What is it that Bai Xiang ransacked a rich and powerful house of the common people when he was in the field in the early years, so he was hated by others.

Why did that family's child come this time to avenge the Bai family, so he kidnapped him.
