Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 715 The old lady of the Zhao family is dead

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, making the trees in the garden rustle.

Bai Mingwei pushed her hair behind her ears: "When soldiers come, we will block it; when water comes, earth will cover us."

As soon as the two of them finished talking, the concierge hurriedly came to report.

He even tripped over the threshold because he was running so fast.

He crawled up to Bai Mingwei, his face turned green and white: "Girl, it's not good! It's not good!"

Bai Yu's face darkened.

Bai Mingwei asked him: "Why are you so panicked?"

The porter said with fear: "The old lady of the Zhao family died on the way back to the Zhao Mansion not long after she came out of Jingzhao Mansion."

"The Zhao family sued the eldest mistress for deliberate murder in Jingzhao Mansion. People from Jingzhao Mansion came to summon the eldest mistress for questioning."

The old lady of the Zhao family has a decree. Even if she rushes into the Bai Mansion and beats someone, the Jingzhao Mansion cannot detain her. The most she can do is fine her a few silver taels, give her a few token criticisms, and then let her go.

And the old lady of the Zhao family was bitten by a dog on her front foot in the Bai Mansion, and died on her back foot on the way home. The Bai family could not escape her involvement.

When Bai Mingwei heard this, her expression was terrifyingly calm. She ordered the concierge: "Please wait for a moment for the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion. We will come out immediately and cooperate with them to go to Jingzhao Mansion for investigation."

The concierge went to do it immediately.

Bai Mingwei looked at Bai Yu: "Seventh Brother, the Zhao family is not suing the entire Bai Mansion, but the sister-in-law. What's going on here is really interesting."

Who is Shen related to?

In addition to being the daughter-in-law of Baifu, Shen is also related to Shen Zian, the Minister of Household Affairs.

The Zhao family bites Shen at this moment, not just because Shen let the dog go.

More importantly, if something happens to the Shen family, not only will the entire White House be worried about it, but the Shen family, the Minister of Household Affairs, will also be affected.

Of course, how could the Zhao family possibly shake the Bai family and the Shen family?
Besides, it was the old lady of the Zhao family who was seeking death herself. With so many people testifying, the investigators would not confuse right and wrong and say that the White House deliberately murdered the Zhao family.

However, in order to defend Shen and prove Shen's innocence, the Bai family and the Shen family had to go to great lengths.

Seeing that the envoy from Beiyan was getting closer and closer, the day to welcome the envoy was coming soon. With something like this happening in the Bai Mansion, how could she, Bai Mingwei, concentrate on her official duties?
So even now that the matter has reached this point, the purpose remains the same, which is to cause trouble for the Bai family and distract her.

As for the Shen family being involved.

Either it was because Shen Zian helped the brother and sister in court, which made some people unhappy.Either because Shen Zian agreed to sign a wine sales agreement with Beiyan, some people's interests were affected. This was a small warning given by some people.

However, no matter what the reason is, this Zhao family matter must be resolved.

After hearing Bai Mingwei's words, Bai Yu immediately said: "Sister-in-law has a royal status. Even if there is pressure from Jingzhao Mansion, she will not be convicted casually, but grievances and sufferings will be inevitable."

"Mingwei, it seems that we have to take action on the Zhao family one step ahead. Why don't we take this opportunity to deal with the Zhao family in one fell swoop."

"Let the people in the court open their eyes and see that although my grandfather has withdrawn from the center of power, the White House has not fallen because of this. Not everyone can step on the family that our brothers and sisters have built!"

"The most important thing is that my sister-in-law has worked hard for this family. What happened this time is also to protect this family. We cannot let her be wronged."

Bai Mingwei immediately agreed with Bai Yu's suggestion: "Seventh brother, the person who tied the bell must also tie the bell. This matter started with the Zhao family, and it must end with the Zhao family."

"If you want to settle this matter, you need to let the Zhao family take the initiative to withdraw the accusation. But since the enemy wants to use Mrs. Zhao's death to harm the White House, they will not be unprepared."

"It's obviously not feasible to conduct an autopsy to prove that the cause of Mrs. Zhao's death was not directly related to the beating she received in the White House."

"Not to mention that the Zhao family will not agree to the autopsy. Even if we can find a way to get them to agree, it will take a lot of time."

"The longer the time goes on and the longer the fight, the more grievances my sister-in-law will suffer, so this is the last resort. If we want to resolve this matter as soon as possible, we need to take a different approach."

Bai Yu immediately said: "You have more ideas than me, I will listen to your arrangements."

Bai Ming said slightly: "First of all, please ask Sister-in-law Seven to accompany my elder sister-in-law to Jingzhao Mansion. Sister-in-law Seven is the niece of the Queen Mother. With Sister-in-law Seven here, they don't dare to be too presumptuous."

"Secondly, inform the Shen Mansion that we will have an opinion on my sister-in-law's matter, so please don't worry; and tell them to stay put no matter what happens."

"Finally, I need Brother Qi to help stabilize the family for the time being, to appease my grandfather, to stabilize the female family members, and to take care of several children."

At this point, Bai Mingwei gave him a firm look: "As for the Zhao family taking the initiative to withdraw the accusation, I will handle it."

After a pause, her expression suddenly became serious:

"The Zhao family is at fault. The death of an old lady like that is not enough to take off the White House. However, if there are any omissions in welcoming the envoys, the peace talks between the two countries will be ruined."

"That's a catastrophe of killing one person and annihilating the family. So the Zhao family's incident is just an interlude. The purpose of those people is to destroy the first mission I took on."

"I have to take care of welcoming the envoys, facilitating the wine deal, and dealing with the Zhao family's affairs. It's bound to be beyond my capabilities."

"However, we must not mess up our position at this time and allow others to take advantage of us. So Brother Qi, I will trouble you with everything at home."
