Now when I heard it, Baimei was not only mischievous, but also caused trouble, causing trouble to the world. As a father and the prime minister of the dynasty, it was extremely necessary for him to go to the palace to plead guilty.

Bai Chengyang waved his hand and walked out. Before he could cross the threshold, He Wang hurried over and bumped into Bai Chengyang. The two almost fell over.

Bai Chengyang was already irritable. After another collision, no matter how good his temper was, he said, "What's wrong with you today? You're so reckless."

He Wang didn't have time to confess himself and said, "Master, don't blame me. Go outside and take a look. The father-in-law in the palace has come to deliver the imperial edict again. Behind him are the imperial doctor and several nuns, all of them look fierce. I’m afraid they’re here to catch the third lady.”

As soon as she heard that someone else was coming from the palace, the old lady didn't care whether she was dizzy or not. She put on her coat, grabbed Nanny Zhao's hand, and followed Bai Chengyang to the front yard with Wang.

There was a row of people standing in the front yard. As far as I could tell, behind the father-in-law stood two imperial doctors and several fierce-looking nuns.

Bai Chengyang didn't know why, but he still knelt down with everyone to listen to the order, and was supported by his father-in-law.

The father-in-law said with a smile: "The emperor has said that this time it is just a verbal instruction. Besides, the old lady is inconvenient, so there is no need to kneel."

Then he smiled at Bai Lan who was behind Bai Chengyang and said, "The emperor said: Princess Ye is frightened and will reward her with a thousand taels of silver."

After saying that, the two guards carried a box and put it aside.

Then the father-in-law said to Bai Chengyang: "The concubine Bai Mei deserves death for insulting the prince. However, recently the royal family was so happy that they clashed with the Crown Princess and Princess Ye, so they sent a special imperial doctor to treat them. We must not pass the bad luck to Princess Ye. However, the death penalty If you can escape the crime of living, you will be given thirty white plum palms and a three-day sentence."

The father-in-law looked around but couldn't see Baimei. He was surprised and said, "Why don't you see Baimei, the guilty girl?"

Bai Chengyang said: "Bai Mei's injury was too serious and she couldn't get up, so she wouldn't let her out so as not to scare her father-in-law."

The father-in-law waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The emperor has specially sent a nun from the palace to take care of you personally. Prime Minister Bai can let someone lead the way."

Bai Chengyang glanced at He Wang, who raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, leading the two nuns towards Xiangruixuan. Not long after, Zheng's voice of crying for father and mother reached everyone's ears.

Everyone couldn't help but frown, and saw two nuns walking towards each other holding the dying Bai Mei, followed closely by Mrs. Zheng who was crying so hard that she didn't know what to do.

Bai Chengyang roared: "Shut up!"

This loud roar really made Zheng shut up.

Only then did Mrs. Zheng see clearly that the person who took Bai Mei away was not an ordinary woman but a nun who came with her father-in-law. Wasn't she from the palace?

After all, Mrs. Zheng's age was showing off here. No matter how ignorant she was, she had been following Bai Chengyang for so many years, so she still had some sense of perspective. She immediately shut her mouth, wiped her tears and stood aside.

At this time, Bai Mei has long lost her beauty from five days ago, her cheeks are swollen, and there are bloodstains of varying depths on her skin. Some pebbles are still stuck in the flesh and blood and have not been taken out. Although she has changed her clothes, they are already stained with new bloodstains. ,shocking.

The father-in-law raised his hand and a sharp voice sounded, "Execution!"

Immediately afterwards, a nun took out bamboo and wood pieces and began to perform the palm punishment.

Bang bang bang! The bamboo splinters hit Bai Mei's swollen face, which was very scary, but in Bai Lan's ears, it sounded pleasant.

This grandma had used all her strength, but Bai Mei no longer had the strength to shout out the pain. It should be said that she was in so much pain that she couldn't open her mouth or make a sound.

Mrs. Wang couldn't bear to look away and turned away, and the old lady also returned to Qing'an Hall with the support of Aunt Zhao.

If there is no clear requirement in the imperial edict that people must watch the execution, others can leave. Therefore, after the thirty-year execution, only the head of the family Bai Chengyang, Bai Lan who was watching the theater, biological mother Zheng and those who came to the palace for the execution were left. Even most of the servants of Xiangruixuan were afraid that they would run away.

After the palm punishment was completed, Bai Chengyang let out a sigh of relief. After all, it was the daughter he had hugged. Now that his daughter was suffering, his heart was cut like a knife, and every palm was like a slap on him, but he really couldn't help it.

The father-in-law finally smiled again and said, "I will be punished for three days and I will come back tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and left. The two nuns holding Bai Mei stopped paying attention and threw Bai Mei directly to Mrs. Zheng and the maid Cuizhi, clapped their hands and followed her out.

After everyone in the palace left, Mrs. Zheng dared to cry loudly. As soon as she started to speak, her father-in-law turned back.

"The emperor also said that on the big day, if anyone cries, behead him!" After that, he left.

Mrs. Zheng snorted with snot and tears, and worked together with Cuizhi to carry Baimei back to the house.

When he returned home, Bai Chengyang was still thinking about how to punish his daughter. Now that he saw this, he really couldn't bring himself to punish her anymore. That's it, the emperor had already punished her, so forget it.

Bai Chengyang shook his head helplessly, glanced at Bai Lan, and said, "Lan'er, although Mei'er went too far in this matter, she was beaten and punished, so..."

Bai Lan knew that her father was soft-hearted again. She had always known that the Bai family was kind, so that was why she ended up like that.

She doesn't want her father to be embarrassed by this matter, nor does she want him to change his original intention and become like her after knowing the truth. If this life is destined to lead to killing with blood on his hands, she would rather bear it all by herself, even if she ends up alone in the future, she still wants to preserve the Bai family. That original intention, an eternal peace.

"Father, I'm fine. I think there must be a misunderstanding in this matter. I will make it clear to my sister after the imperial doctor heals her."

Bai Chengyang was very pleased. This eldest daughter has always been the most worry-free and the most well-behaved and sensible.

"You can rest assured that your father can think of you like this. You are tired after a long day of work. Go back and rest early. Tell your mother that I won't go over for dinner. I will go and accompany the old lady."

Bailan agreed and went back to Canglanxuan with Shanchuan.

Walking to the front of Zhuqingtang, Bai Zhu stuck out her little head and hugged Bai Lan, which really shocked her.

"Sister, are you okay today? I can't let go." Behind her, Ms. Lu's lips were tightly closed, her brows were furrowed, with a worried look on her face.

Bai Lan patted Bai Zhu on the back, looked at Mrs. Lu and said, "Don't worry, aunt. With the Night King here, I will be fine. Don't worry, aunt."

With Bai Lan's words, Mrs. Lu loosened her tightly closed lips and said, "Miss, please be careful in the future. The two Xiang Ruixuan people may be thinking about something."

Bailan thanked Lu and went back with Shanchuan. Bai Zhu was puzzled: "Aniang, my mother and eldest sister treat everyone very well, why does the third sister always go against the eldest sister? Catching an adulterer is a fatal thing for a woman."

Lu took Bai Zhu back and said, "It would be great if they knew how to be content. Zhu'er, remember, if it's yours, go for it. Don't take any more that's not yours. My mother only hopes that you will live a peaceful life." An'an, just be happy."
