Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Chapter 616: Go to the White House to ask for an explanation

Lu Qingqing's carriage quickly arrived at the city gate. The group of people on the road behind the carriage attracted many people's attention. Their faces and bodies were scarred by Xia Yun's whipping, which made people sigh for a while.

People were pointing and talking, while Ling Xi was persuading the onlookers while pretending to be casual and answering the crowd's questions.

It happened that someone had just seen the Feng family's carriage at the city gate. The coachman on the carriage shaft was beaten and bruised all over his body.

"Oh, what this little brother said is true. I saw the Feng family's carriage passing by just now. I didn't expect the daughter of Prime Minister Bai's family to be so vicious."

More and more people gathered around, "Yes! Yes! Didn't you see that the coachman was beaten to pieces? Tsk tsk, it's so miserable."

Listening to the people outside talking more and more loudly, Lu Qingqing's lips curled up into a smile in the carriage. She didn't expect that this kid Ling Xi was so sinister.

"Sister, let's see how Bai Qingxi still quibbles this time."

Lu Qingqing smiled, but there was a coldness in his eyes. How could Prime Minister Bai stand by and let her daughter ruin her reputation? But so what, as long as a small seed is planted in people's hearts. .

Ling Xi persuaded the crowd to move away and drove the carriage straight to Shuntian Mansion. The government servant at the door was also curious. Did someone come to report the crime on the first day of the new year?

"This officer worked hard to imprison the gangsters behind the carriage. They stopped Miss Feng's carriage outside the city for no reason and injured people. They also slandered the reputation of my county boss. Please ask Shuntian Prefecture to find out the truth. , make the decision for my county head."

Ling Xi raised his hands and complained to the officer. When he heard that the man had hurt Miss Feng's family and slandered the county owner, which was no small matter, he immediately became serious and shouted to the officer in a low voice to put everyone in jail. Later, there would be news Lord interrogated.

"Don't worry, little brother, your Excellency is not in the mansion today, but I will report back to you later on."

"Thank you, all officials. This is the wine and tea provided by my county master for you." Ling Xi took out a piece of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into the hands of the officials.

The eyes of the two people behind them also lit up. Unexpectedly, they could still benefit from chatting. They even spoke in a more polite tone and thanked County Master Ling Xiyu.

After doing this, Ling Xi reported back, "Master, should we go back home or..."

Lu Qingqing was holding the jade pendant that Xia Yun got from those ruffians in her hand. She raised the corners of her lips and sneered, "No, let's go to Bai Mansion."

Ling Xi raised his eyebrows and waved his hands excitedly, "Okay, Master, sit down."

He threw off his riding whip and rushed in the direction of Baifu, which was not far from Zhenguo General's Mansion.

The two maids on the carriage and Tiantian both looked like they were going to quarrel. Tiantian deliberately showed a fierce look on her face, which made her laugh.

"Giggle...Don't worry Tiantian, there is a sister here."

Tiantian shook her head like a rattle, "No, I must join my sister and fight against the same enemy."

"Good good!"

The two maids scanned the carriage, trying to find a handy weapon. Lu Qingqing held her forehead and laughed. This was not a fight, so there was no need for this.

The carriage soon arrived in front of the gate of Baifu, followed by a group of people who were busy following the carriage from the city gate to here.

Ling Xi stopped the carriage and Biyun helped his master down. Lu Qingqing asked Tiantian and Xia Shuang to stay in the carriage. Tiantian shook her head desperately and said that she would stay with her no matter what.

Helpless, the two sisters came to the gate of Bai Mansion together. Looking at the vermilion gate, Qingqing said in a deep voice, "Ling Xi, go call the door."

"It's the master."

Ling Xi walked quickly towards the red lacquered door with a loud voice, and there was a loud slam behind him.

"Open the door, open the door."

When Ling Xi knocked on the door quickly, the boy guarding the door impatiently shouted outside and opened the door.

"Who is it? This Chinese New Year is so loud..."

There was a muffled sound as the door slowly opened, and the boy inside poked his head out, with a look of annoyance on his face when he saw the crowd outside and the people standing in front of the door.

The boy was stunned and asked stammeringly, "You...who are you looking for?"

"Let your master and his wife come out."

Ling Xi said very rudely, and the crowd behind him also shouted, "Yes! Yes! Let Prime Minister Bai, Mrs. Bai, come out."

The corners of Lu Qingqing's lips raised slightly, with a hint of sarcasm.

Seeing that something was wrong, the boy quickly said "wait", closed the door with a clang, turned around and ran towards the inner courtyard.

Ling Xi outside the mansion looked at her mistress and saw her face was calm and calm, listening to the indignant comments from the crowd behind her.

Tiantian stood firmly beside her sister, staring at the door angrily.

At this time, Mrs. Liu from General Zhenguo's Mansion and Mrs. Lu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were playing with their children and looking at the sky outside. Why hadn't these two girls come back yet?

"Yes!"

Aunt Qi next to her smiled and said softly that she might be back soon.

Little did they know that the two sisters were in front of the Bai Mansion, which was across the street. Today, Prime Minister Bai was in the palace, and only Mrs. Bai was there.

Hearing the boy's reply, Mrs. Bai frowned with confusion on her face, and simply ordered the nanny beside her to go to the door and have a look.

"Let's see who is causing the trouble."

"Yes, old slave, go now. If he dares to come to the house to cause trouble on the first day of the new year to seek bad luck, I will scold him like a bastard." After saying that, the old lady took the order and followed the young man towards the outside of the house in high spirits. Go.

Before opening the door, the boy swallowed and warned his mother that there were many people outside.

"What are you afraid of? Our Prime Minister's Mansion is still afraid of him. If you open the door, I would like to see what kind of monster it is."

The boy responded crisply and quickly opened the door to the house.

The people outside the door heard the door open and kept shouting, "Come out, hey, where is Mrs. Bai here?"

Lu Qingqing also discovered that the person who came out was a woman, and sneered, "It seems that Bai Mansion is not sincere in solving the problem."

She turned around and blessed everyone behind her, "Everyone has also seen that Baifu is very angry. Don't blame me, Lu Qingqing, for being unkind. I will leave this matter to Shuntianfu for verification. Please give me To prove to Qingqing."

The crowd around him was in a state of shock. Facing such a delicate and beautiful Lu Qingqing, how could anyone not sympathize with her? How could such a gentle-tempered person do something that was disgraceful to her family.

Moreover, the old general of Zhenguo has a very high voice in the hearts of the people.

Without waiting for the nanny to ask questions, Lu Qingqing and her sisters got on the carriage with their maids on both sides. The old nanny behind them, who didn't know what was going on, looked confused, "Huh? Huh? How come we're here? It's really unlucky to have people come to make trouble during the Chinese New Year. , are you still so confident?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd gathered around the door picked up small stones on the ground and threw them towards her.

"Hit her. Even the servants are so arrogant. No wonder Miss Bai is so vicious."
