Restart the Protagonist’s Way of Survival - Chapter 140
The old drawings did not fully cover the layout details of the entire prime minister’s mansion. When the craftsmen were uncertain, they would go to the prime minister’s disciples and ask how the place should be constructed.
After the meal, Bai Qingyang was invited over by the gardeners from the Ministry of Industry. The reason is that after the fire, the vegetation in the mansion was reduced to ashes, and there were difficulties in restoring the greenery.
They didn’t know the layout of the plants and trees in the Prime Minister’s Mansion before. It happened that Bai Qingyang was familiar with this place, so the Empress Empress came to guide her.
Anyway, Li Zichou and Mrs. Bai had nothing to do, so he followed.
Bai Qingyang was having a serious discussion with someone, and the two of them watched from a distance a few steps away, feeling very emotional for a moment.
“Thanks to His Majesty’s blessing, my husband’s grievances can be washed away, and my wife is very grateful.” Mrs. Bai said.
“Why did Madam suddenly…?”
Mrs. Bai shook her head: “The Bai family is sympathetic to the heavenly family. You have worked so **** Aye’s case. My wife has always wanted to thank His Majesty face to face.”
Li Zichou replied: “Madam Bai’s words are serious, but Zichou actually doesn’t do much.
“It’s not just my wish to protect the prime minister’s family. The late emperor had more than enough heart and strength. As his descendant, I should do my best to help him fulfill his long-cherished wish.
“Rectifying the name of a loyal minister who has suffered injustice is the compensation the Bai family deserves, and it is also my promise to her.”
Li Zichou looked at Bai Qingyang’s figure, while Mrs. Bai looked at Li Zichou.
“Being able to receive His Majesty’s love and attention is the blessing of the Bai family and the blessing of the dog girl.”
“Because that’s all I can do.”
The young man’s expression was still calm, but when he looked at Bai Qingyang, there was joy in his eyes that she hadn’t noticed. Seeing this, Mrs. Bai still couldn’t help asking that question:
“Before Qing Yang was announced into the palace by an imperial edict, did His Majesty already know something at that time?”
Li Zichou was stunned for a moment, and his face became a little stiff: “That’s…” That was the original boss’s immoral thing, not her original intention.
Mrs. Bai was keenly aware of Li Zichou’s embarrassment, and said: “Your Majesty has some difficulties that cannot be said, so the court lady will not ask any more questions.”
“No…” Li Zichou didn’t know how to explain, and sighed, “Forget it, just treat it like that.”
Bai Qingyang was tortured by the original owner…I can’t say it…
“Forgive me for speaking bluntly, my wife once hated His Majesty.” Madam Bai said so, but her tone was very flat, “She passed away, and only our mother and daughter are left to live together in Qinzhou.”
“…forcibly taking her away from you, I’m sorry.”
“The minister’s wife is worried that Qing Yang’s child is too upright and will be wronged in the palace.”
“During that time, she was indeed wronged, but it will never happen again in the future.”
“That’s good.” Madam Bai nodded, “The court lady can entrust her to Your Majesty with confidence.”
“Well, I must…” Li Zichou was about to answer, when he suddenly felt that there was something in the other party’s words, “Wait…what do you mean entrusting her to me?”
Mrs. Bai said to herself: “This kind of relationship is too deviant, but I hope you and her can not be bound by the world, support each other, and go on for a long time. Can you do it, Zishou?”
“Wait, Mrs. Bai, I think you misunderstood something,” Li Zichou quickly explained, “There is nothing between me and Qingyang.”
This time, Mrs. Bai showed a puzzled expression: “Innocent? But the child doesn’t look at you innocently?”
“Uh…” Li Zichou was at a loss for words, she just wanted to know what was wrong.
“Aren’t you already a married couple?”
“We…” Li Zichou didn’t know how to answer, “Madam can accept it? Two women love each other, but they will be criticized by the world, don’t you think it’s absurd?”
“Ah…what’s the absurdity, what’s the world, love is just a matter between two people. I’m just such a daughter, so I naturally hope that she can get the best.”
“But how can I…”
“That child has always been proud, and she has never shown tenderness to anyone, but she can’t restrain her intimacy and attachment to you.” Madam Bai said, “You are worthy of her unreserved love based on your weight in her heart.” Express your heart without hesitation, and pursue your love without hesitation.”
“But I might not give her the best.”
“Zixou, you don’t need to deliberately dedicate anything, Qingyang will fight for herself.”
Li Zichou was slightly taken aback. All along, she had placed Bai Qingyang in an unequal position, always thinking that she would give and pay alone, and Bai Qingyang could just bear it passively.
As everyone knows, this is unfair to Bai Qingyang.
“I can see that you didn’t mean anything to her, Zizuo. It would be a pity if you missed each other because of one party’s dishonesty.”
Li Zifu opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say.
“Chingyang is the most special child in the world. I would be worried if I hand her over to an ordinary man.”
“Is it okay to leave it to me?”
“Well, because she chose you.”
“Madame really loves your daughter.”
“Of course, Tatsumi is the same about this.”
“The prime minister… will he accept it?”
“It’s hard to say, after all, he is also the one who is particularly rebellious.”
“Ah this…”
“What are you worried about, what are you worrying about, you can say it, there is nothing that you and her can’t solve together.” Mrs. Bai paused, “Or if you are embarrassed to speak to her, you can also talk to A Niang .”
“Aunt…?”
Li Zishou just repeated these two words subconsciously, but the other party let out a kindly hey, as if he had succeeded in a prank, showing a slightly sly smile.
Li Zichou was taken aback for a moment, both funny and helpless.
How did she become her aunt? It is said that she herself has not agreed to this marriage…
Will you be honest with Bai Qingyang about everything? Can you do it yourself? People around me are encouraging me, shouldn’t I also show some awareness?
“Oh, why are you chatting so happily?” Bai Qingyang came over, “What are you laughing at, Aunt?”
Mrs. Bai: “What, why are you laughing, Mother?”
Bai Qingyang looked at the two of them suspiciously, and pulled his mother aside: “What are you guys talking about? Why are you looking at me like that? Mother, did you tell her the stupid things I did?”
Mrs. Bai: “No, I just chatted about some trivial matters.”
“What little thing?”
“Your life event.”
“?” So it’s a trivial matter? ?
Bai Qingyang glanced in Li Zichou’s direction, and said coyly: “Mother, Qingyang has no plans to talk about marriage yet, can you stop worrying about it?”
Mrs. Bai: “Qing Yang, it’s not Aniang who is talking about you. You are nineteen years old, and you are already past the age of marriage. If I don’t worry about it anymore, do you want to become an old girl that no one wants?”
Bai Qingyang blushed after hearing this: “I…Even if I’m old, someone will still want me!”
Madam Bai was slightly surprised: Oh? She is so confident in Li Zishou?
“No, she has to.” Bai Qingyang suddenly changed his tune, “If she dares not want me, I will use force!”
Madam Bai was silent: “…” My daughter’s idea is very bold…
Will the reward be in danger…
Mrs. Bai had no choice but to tell her that a twisted melon is not sweet, and she dared not tease her any more.
The three of them spent a peaceful and fulfilling day in Zhunguo Gong’s mansion, and they didn’t go back to the palace until it was dark when Li Bai and Li Bai sent Mrs. Bai back to Shi Lang’s mansion.
//
This is the third day of the truce, and the Central Plains and the Grassland are in the midst of negotiations. In the past few days, Bai Qingyang’s envoys have been entering the palace, and she is as usual taking care of every opportunity.
Bai Qingyang had his own plans for handling state relations, and it was not easy for Li Zishou to intervene, he was only responsible for intervening in some internal affairs of the imperial court.
But even though Bai Qingyang was busy endlessly, her offensive against Li Zishou did not weaken at all. Even because she was too restrained and depressed when working in the previous court, when she returned to the harem, it was as if the seal had been lifted, and her actions were bolder and more open .
Originally, I thought that Bai Qingyang was busy with work, so he didn’t have the time and energy to chase after him. As a result, as soon as that person saw Li Zifu, it was like a super fast charge, and he would immediately change from low power to full battery, and then Keep chasing her hard. It made Li Zishou hide from Bai Qingyang every day as if he was avoiding debts, for fear that one day he would be eaten if he didn’t resist.
If Li Zichou wanted to leave the palace, there would be a group of servants following him, they were vicious, those who knew it knew they were protecting her, those who didn’t know thought she had been kidnapped.
She just wanted to conspire quietly with the bad friend cat in a corner, but with so many people following behind, it’s a ghost plotting.
She couldn’t sneak out of the palace, so she had to write a note and send it to Yang Dejin’s mansion, asking her to come secretly to find her.
In the evening of that day, Li Zichou took advantage of Bai Qingyang’s absence and walked into the deserted palace road next to the Jingyang Palace alone under the starlight.
The night before the Mid-Autumn Festival, after Xie Zhi released Yang Dejin from prison, he also entered the palace here. She thought that after she and Yang Dejin resolved the pseudo-hostile relationship, she would never use this meeting point again, but she didn’t expect to use it again to cover up Bai Qingyang’s eyes and ears.
She didn’t go out to have a tryst with her lover, why on earth did she want to be so sneaky?
Li Zishou: I don’t understand.
After waiting at the exit for a while, Li Zichou saw someone approaching with a light on.
“Come?” Li Zichou asked casually.
The other party seemed to be stunned for a moment, stopped, stood at a position not too far away, and did not speak. Li Zichou was surprised by the other party’s silence, and before he could figure out why, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, which almost scared her away.
“Pay?”
“Your Majesty?” The person in front also spoke.
“Xie Zhi??” Li Zichou was astonished.
Didn’t Xie Zhi go out to work? when did she come back ? And isn’t Bai Qingyang meeting with the minister? Why is she here? ? ?
The three of them were in a state of confusion at the same time, and they didn’t quite understand why an unexpected person appeared here.
Xie Zhi was outside the wall, Bai Qingyang was inside the wall, and Li Zishou was between the two of them, neither advancing nor retreating.
The atmosphere was very stagnant for a while, and when the three of them didn’t know how to speak, someone appeared to break the deadlock.
Yang Dejin also carried a lantern and came from the other side of the bamboo forest. She saw someone outside the wall from a long distance, thought it was Li Zichou, so she called out and asked how long she had been waiting.
The three of them just watched her approaching without saying a word. When Yang Dejin saw that it was Xie Zhi, before he had time to be surprised, he turned around and saw the other two.
Yang Dejin suffered a cardiac arrest: “…”
Grass, was gank! !
The eight eyes met, and at this second, the air was damned silent.
Li Zichou made up his mind quickly, thinking about how to get away with it, while Yang Dejin’s brain froze, like an overused machine, he turned around and wanted to escape, but just took a step, a ruthless iron hand pressed over her shoulder.
Xie Zhi approached slowly like a ghost, leaned into Yang Dejin’s ear and whispered in the devil’s ear: “It’s already here, why don’t you go in and sit?”
Yang Dejin felt the unresistable force on her shoulders, and she gasped: “Can I not sit?”
“Can’t.”
“…”
The author has something to say:
Xie Zhi: That person in front is the queen? Not sure, take another look.
