Zhuo Yao might be exhausted. Before he woke up early in the morning, Bai Zhi carried her daughter out of the room, hoping that Zhuo Yao would have a good rest.

As soon as I went out, the maid came to report, "Girl, what should I do with the girl that my uncle brought back last night?"

Bai Zhi was stunned, "Woman? What woman?"

The maid then took her to see the woman. The maid changed the woman into clean cloth.

When Bai Zhi saw this woman, her eyes trembled slightly. She saw that this woman had a delicate face, but she had a big word "slave" tattooed on her left cheek.

When the woman saw Bai Zhi, her eyes immediately filled with tears. With a plop, she knelt down towards Bai Zhi and kowtowed several times, "Mrs. Crown Prince, please give my regards to Madam Crown Prince!"

Her excited look startled Bai Zhi. She called herself the Crown Prince's wife, and also called herself a slave. Bai Zhi probably also understood her identity.

She held the child in one hand and gently supported her with the other hand, "Girl, get up and talk."

Bai Zhi asked someone to make tea for her and asked her to sit down and say, "Young lady is my husband's old friend?"

The woman raised her eyes and glanced at Bai Zhi, then hurriedly looked away, "It's... the little girl's name is Zhuo Rong, she belongs to the prince..."

At this point, she paused, looked at Bai Zhi, and then said weakly, "She is the prince's maid."

It was a very ordinary sentence, but the hesitation after the pause made Bai Zhi suspicious. She did not ask, and just said, "That's it. I remember Zhuo Yao said that after he left Chenjing, the Zhennan Palace was raided. Since it is a good thing that his maid can be reunited, since it is inconvenient for him to march and fight, the girl will live here comfortably, and this can be regarded as his home. "

Zhuo Rong's eyes were a little moist, her eyes kept darting away, like a frightened animal, she looked at Bai Zhi timidly, "Thank you, Madam Prince! Zhuo Rong is grateful!"

As she said that, she wanted to kowtow to Bai Zhi again, but Bai Zhi hurriedly said, "No, no, no, no! What happened to the girl's face?"

Hearing this, Zhuo Rong raised her hand to gently cover the tattoo on her face, "This is... After the Zhennan Palace was ransacked, all the servants in the house fled and those who failed to escape were all classified as slaves." They were given to different officials, and the people in charge had their faces tattooed and worked hard every day. Fortunately, the prince captured Min County, and the servants were saved."

After hearing this, Bai Zhi sighed in her heart. The family's rise and fall, honor and disgrace, are all shared by the whole family.

She comforted, "The girl has suffered, but now I can rest assured that you will not be asked to do hard work in the future. The girl used to be in charge of things in the Zhennan Palace? What kind of things were you in charge of?"

"In charge of the prince's food, clothing, and servants in the house."

Bai Zhi saw that her voice was very low when she said other words, but this sentence was clean and clear and she puffed up her chest. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you only concerned with the affairs of the prince's house?"

"Yes." Zhuo Rong confirmed.

There was a sense of pride in Zhuo Rong's affirmation, and Bai Zhi frowned slightly, "Are you Zhuo Yao's maid?"

Faced with Bai Zhi's straightforward question, Zhuo Rong was stunned, hesitated for a long time, and denied, "No...it's not."

Bai Zhi didn't understand. She felt that the relationship between this girl and Zhuo Yao was unusual.

In this era, it was normal for a rich young man to have several maids who lived with him. She thought it was normal, but she denied it, which made Bai Zhi confused.

So Bai Zhi said bluntly, "Girl, if you stay, we will be members of the same family from now on. If you hide something from me, how should I trust you?"

When Zhuo Rong heard this, her whole body tensed up. She was a little entangled and too scared to look at Bai Zhi again.

Bai Zhi was waiting for her. She didn't dare to stay with someone she didn't trust. If she was really in Zhuo Yao's room, the problems involved would be much more complicated. She didn't understand this girl's character. If she could Bai Zhi must be worried about competing with her for a man.

The two were in a stalemate. At this moment, Zhuo Yao walked into the room with sleepy eyes and hair loose. When he saw Zhuo Rong sitting on the stool, his eyes immediately opened wide.

For a moment, the soles of my feet became hot.

Zhuo Yao walked up to Bai Zhi stiffly and took the child in her arms, "Gu Gu?"

The child felt curious and stared at Zhuo Yao for a long time. He raised his hand and punched Zhuo Yao in the face with a small fist.

When Zhuo Yao saw that she was small, with a pouty face and a cute red face, he immediately smiled, showing her big white teeth, and smiled from ear to ear.

"Gu Gu is so good." Zhuo Yao hugged Xiang Bai Zhi to show off, his expression as if he was saying that he gave birth to this child.

Bai Zhi got angry when she saw his silly look. She suddenly brought a woman back without any explanation, she just laughed like crazy!

Bai Zhi turned around and sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, and said lightly, "How does the prince plan to arrange for Miss Zhuo Rong?"

Zhuo Yao's expression condensed slightly, and when he looked at Bai Zhi, his eyes became cautious, "Just...just a maid, you can arrange her as you wish."

Bai Zhi was still a little angry. She knew that it was normal for people like Zhuo Yao to have a common roommate, but she had never imagined sharing a man with another woman. This made her a little confused and didn't know how to deal with it.

After all, the marriage between her and Zhuo Yao was originally a profit-oriented marriage. She had not made any agreement with him in advance, nor had she asked for each other. There was not even an oath of eternal love, so she really couldn't say anything.

Bai Zhi sighed slightly and asked Zhuo Yao, her tone was quite calm, "Miss Zhuo Rong is the person you brought back. She said she used to be in charge of your house affairs, and now you still let her continue to take charge of it." ?”

"Well, everything is fine, as long as you decide!" Zhuo Yao was still teasing the child, but didn't look at Bai Zhi.

Seeing his evasive appearance, Bai Zhi became more and more angry. She slapped the table, and the tea bowl on the table made a slight sound.

Zhuo Yao and Zhuo Rong were both a little stunned. They looked at Bai Zhi in unison, not daring to express their anger, as if they had done something wrong.

"Zhuo Yao, since you brought the person back, you should put him in a good place. No matter what happens, you leave it to me to decide?" Bai Zhi glared at Zhuo Yao and said angrily.

Zhuo Yao was at a loss for a moment, and he didn't dare to yell back, but there was just a little bit of aggrievedness in his eyes.

After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she turned to Zhuo Rong and said, "Girl, I have no intention of not accepting you, it's just that the girl is hiding something from me, and I really can't feel at ease!"

Seeing that she was angry, Zhuo Yao whispered, "She has nothing to hide, she is just a maid..."

"Is she your roommate?" Bai Zhi interrupted him and asked directly.

Zhuo Yao: "Yes..."

Zhuo Rong: "No..."

One of the two people said yes and the other said no, which confused Bai Zhi, "Is it yes or no?"

Zhuo Rong: "Yes..."

Zhuo Yao: "No..."

Bai Zhi: "..."

This is all obvious. The more they cover it up, the more Bai Zhi feels that they are hiding something.

Bai Zhi asked Zhuo Rong angrily, "Miss Zhuo Rong, tell the truth!"

Zhuo Rong glanced at Zhuo Yao, then lowered her head and muttered: "Yes..."

"Then why don't you tell me the truth?" Bai Zhi simply knelt down and looked into Zhuo Rong's eyes and asked her.

"Yes... the prince didn't let me say it..." Zhuo Rong said.

Bai Zhi raised her head and stared at Zhuo Yao, the light in her eyes became sharp, and she didn't understand.

She didn't understand, shouldn't the Zhuo Yao in her impression be a magnanimous person?
