New Year's Eve passed like this, and there seemed to be no movement in the next few days. Bai Ruozhu couldn't believe that this was true. She didn't believe that the weird ghost-faced man just came into the palace to have fun?

Or maybe the plan was temporarily canceled because she discovered him and he failed to kill him?

Then why did he sneak into the inner palace? Assassinate the emperor and change the dynasty?

Bai Ruozhu rubbed her forehead. She shouldn't worry about these things, so she should stop thinking about them. The more she deals with the palace, the more tired she will be.

She glanced at Le Bin who was still sleeping, and her brows knitted together again. How on earth could she detoxify Le Bin in a foolproof way?

In the blink of an eye, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the emperor finally allowed Bai Ruozhu and her daughter to go home to spend the New Year with their families. The two of them took Deng Deng and couldn't wait to leave the palace, for fear that the emperor would suddenly regret it again.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door of their home, they saw a carriage parked. Upon closer inspection, they identified it as the Ding family's carriage.

Because of Jiang Yichun's help, Ding Feiyu's brother got a job in Beijing, and the family rented a small courtyard in Beijing to live. Bai Zhi and his wife were grateful for the help of Bai Ruozhu's family. They often came to visit and had the closest relationship with the Bai family.

"It must be your sister-in-law and the others. It's just right. There are more people and it's lively." Lin Ping'er said happily.

Bai Ruozhu also forced out a smile, held Deng Deng with one hand, and helped her mother into the yard with the other.

When they saw the three people returning home, everyone greeted them and asked them questions. Bai Yihong also took a big red envelope to Xiao Dengdeng and said with a smile: "My good grandson, you have to keep the red envelope from grandpa." .”

Little Dengdeng especially liked red things. She happily kissed Bai Yihong, then took out the silver lock inside and handed it to her mother obediently, leaving only the red seal in her hand to play with.

Everyone laughed, and Ding Feiyu said: "Dengdeng is very filial. He knows how to give money to his mother. Xiaomao, you have to learn from this. You are still the elder brother."

Ding Mao said with a smile beside him: "I don't want it, I still want to buy snacks."

Everyone laughed and said that Ding Mao was naughty.

Bai Ruozhu was always worried about Jiang Yichun's safety. Although there was a smile on her face, her heart was not at the party. When Bai Zhi spoke to her, she noticed that there was some apology in Bai Zhi's expression. After a while, she realized that Bai Zhi felt guilty because Ding Feisheng didn't come to pay New Year's greetings. She even got into a temper with Ding Feiyu, but Ding Feiyu really couldn't do anything to his elder brother. .

In the afternoon, Bai Zhi's family said goodbye and left. Bai Zehao said angrily: "I don't know who is spreading rumors outside. They actually said that the little sister had smallpox and was sent out of the city. They even said..." He glanced at Bai Ruozhu and felt It's unlucky and can't be said any more.

"So that Ding Feisheng doesn't even dare to come to pay New Year's greetings. Why wasn't he like this when he asked Xiao Jiang for help?" Lin Ping'er said straightforwardly.

When Jiang Yichun was mentioned, Bai Ruozhu's face was filled with sadness. Bai Yihong glared at Lin Ping'er and said, "Don't talk about this during the Chinese New Year. We'll just have less contact with each other in the future."

"Little sister, what happened to my brother-in-law?" Bai Zepei asked suddenly. Because Bai Ruozhu entered the palace as soon as he returned to Beijing, and Lin Ping'er was also taken into the palace and could not go home, so the family did not know about Bai Ruozhu. Nothing was gained from this trip.

Bai Ruozhu shook his head, "It's not clear yet. Because something happened to Le Bin, I was called back urgently, leaving Chen Feng and Mu Yu to continue looking for people."

Everyone stopped talking, and they all understood how uncomfortable Bai Ruozhu felt.

That night, Bai Ruozhu went to the small courtyard in the northwest corner to visit Xiaosi and Xuanjizi. When she walked outside the courtyard, she heard the sound of sword practice inside, and the sharp sword blades shot out of the air, making a swishing sound.

She slowed down her pace, fearing to disturb the people inside practicing their swordsmanship, and soon her voice became quieter.

"Yes, he looks a bit like your master." A somewhat stern and indifferent voice sounded in the yard, and it turned out to be Lin Lan's voice.

"Thank you for the compliment, Master." Xiao Si's tone was filled with joy.

"Hmph, you brat, if you call me Mistress again, I'll break your legs!" Lin Lan said angrily.

Xiaosi laughed and ran away quickly.

Bai Ruozhu listened carefully outside and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Lin Lan's attitude towards Xiao Si was slowly changing, and he didn't even hate Xuan Jizi that much.

She knocked on the far door and walked in. Xiao Si poked his head out of the room, and when he saw it was her, he immediately ran over and said happily: "Sister, you are back!"

Bai Ruozhu looked at his younger brother who had grown taller and looked even thinner. He touched his head distressedly and said, "Look what you said, it's not like I was thousands of miles away in the palace. Come on, here." It’s a red envelope given to you by my sister.”

Xiao Si smiled and accepted the red envelope, "Thank you, sister!"

She looked at Xiaosi's brighter and brighter smile and felt relieved in her heart. It seemed that she was right to agree to Xiaosi leaving home to study under his teacher. His character was indeed much more cheerful.

Xuanjizi and Lin Lan were also very open to Bai Ruozhu. Bai Ruozhu said a few words to the three of them and then offered to detoxify Lin Lan. She was afraid that she would have to go to the palace for a while, so she could only treat her while she had time.

After Xuanjizi and Xiaosi retreated, Bai Ruozhu began to treat Lin Lan with the ancient steaming method. After a few injections, Lin Lan lost consciousness while soaking in the bathtub.

Bai Ruozhu carefully took her into the space hot spring and let her soak in. After a while, he took her out and put her back in the tub.

After removing the silver needle again, Lin Lan slowly woke up.

"Same as last time, spend the whole night together?" Lin Lan asked.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "You've been poisoned for too long. Don't be hasty. Take your time one step at a time."

Of course, she had to take her time. Lin Lan soaked in her hot spring, and the hot spring water turned red. If she hadn't known that the hot spring water would become clear again in two days, she would have died of nausea.

"Thank you." Lin Lan whispered.

"No need to thank me, just stop thinking about killing my brother, otherwise I can detoxify you and make your life worse than death!" Bai Ruozhu said unceremoniously.

"You..." Lin Lan stared, why are today's juniors so arrogant?

Bai Ruozhu turned around and went out. She knew that Xuanjizi had heard her words, and gave Xuanjizi another meaningful look. Xuanjizi lowered his head in shame and bowed to her, "Ruozhu, don't worry, Lin Lan will not vent her anger on Ze again." Cleared."

"Yes, sister, my master's wife taught me how to use swordsmanship." Xiao Si helped me anxiously.

Bai Ruozhu gave him a fierce look, who was she trying to pretend to be a bad guy for? Isn't this brat too easy to be soft-hearted?

Early the next morning, someone from the palace summoned Bai Ruozhu into the palace. Bai Ruozhu said goodbye to her family and reluctantly stepped into the palace again, but the news that followed made her see an important turning point...
