Chapter 1022
So everyone knew that the emperor had left the palace, and they all saw that the emperor was heading towards the White Mansion.

And white silk flowers have been hung on the door plaque of the White Mansion.

The janitor at the door had a white cloth tied around his arm, and knelt timidly at the door to greet him.That thin and thin appearance, combined with the wide-open mansion door behind him, looks a bit desolate.

Apart from the dead Bai Lian, the Bai family also had a son, but this man was unrestrained and unrestrained, wandering around and hadn't been back to the capital for many years.

Without Taifu Bai as the pillar, the Bai family is completely over.

Xuanyuan Chen and Zhao Yuanxiang walked out of the soft sedan hand in hand, and the wife of the Bai family rushed over to greet her with a sad expression.

Zhao Yuanxiang stepped forward to help her up, and said: "Please get up quickly, my palace and the emperor came to visit after hearing the bad news, Madam, please express my condolences."

Mrs. Bai stood up with tears in her eyes, bowed her head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Empress."

After all, she is the first-rank official's wife. Although her eyes are red from crying, she still has her bearing.She controlled her emotions pretty well, and led Zhao Yuanxiang and Xuanyuan Chen inward.

Taifu Bai's body was placed in the ebony coffin in the central hall, the remains had been carefully arranged, and the clothes on his body didn't even have a wrinkle, obviously they were new.

Xuanyuan Chen stepped forward to take a look, then looked away, and retreated to Zhao Yuanxiang's side, the two of them each burned a stick of incense.

After the two of them had finished offering the incense, the wife of the Bai family said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, empress, my wife dares to ask, my master... who killed him?"

Zhao Yuanxiang and Xuanyuan Chen looked at each other, a little surprised by Mrs. Bai's straightforwardness.

Zhao Yuanxiang also said directly, "Although there is no evidence, we believe that Yu Wenrong sent someone to do it."

Tell Mrs. Bai this guess, not only because the murderer is really Yu Wenrong, but more importantly, to use Mrs. Bai's mouth to tell those who were expecting Mrs. Bai that Yu Wenrong killed Mrs. Bai who are also their enemies.

In this way, even if Taifu Bai is dead, those people can still be used for themselves instead of being drawn over by Yu Wenrong.

"Sure enough..." Mrs. Bai murmured in a low voice, and said, "I thought a long time ago that as a civil servant, he would never be able to please the state teacher who has power over the government."

Zhao Yuanxiang pursed his lips, and said, "It's because we didn't protect Mrs. Bai well."

"No, what is the empress talking about?" Mrs. Bai shook her head quickly, and said, "It's his fate, and he can't blame anyone. What's more, when he made the decision, the minister's wife didn't stop him." .”

As she spoke, she glanced at Xuanyuan Chen, and the corners of her mouth raised a little: "Say something outrageous, the emperor is much younger than the son of the minister's wife. I heard about the emperor's experience in the early years. Let my son live that kind of life, I'm afraid I'll die of heartache. Therefore, when the master made a decision, the minister's wife also supported it."

"At that point, we were prepared to die."

She glanced at the coffin, sighed, and said, "It's just that I didn't expect it to be so fast. The master didn't even leave a last word of parting, so he just left."

Xuanyuan Chen looked at the black coffin, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is he going to meet in Yuyinfang today?"
