Eunuch Xia took the order and stepped back.

Not long after, Eunuch Xia came in with the three of them. Steward Li was old and his legs were not very agile. He usually trembled a little when he walked. Bai Lin saw that he was walked in with the help of two young eunuchs. I didn't care too much.

Steward Li saw General Bai as soon as he came in, and he burst into tears, kneeling on the ground as if his legs and bones were limp, and said in a trembling voice: "General Bai, this old servant will be lucky enough to see General Bai again. And die without regret."

Bai Lin saw that, perhaps driven by Steward Li's grief-filled emotions, his eyes began to feel sore and hot, and he raised a hand to signal: "Butler Li, you are old, so don't kneel down to me. I don't talk about the rules, and you don't have to give me such a big courtesy when you get here."

"General Bai, this old slave should just kneel down. This old slave has spent most of his life in Chengwang's mansion. The prince has never said anything harsh to this old slave, saying that he is a slave in the palace. But to this old slave, Prince Cheng's Mansion is the home of this old slave for the rest of his life." Steward Li said in tears, refusing to get up for life or death.

Bai Lin couldn't help it, so he stopped forcing the old man's stubbornness, and said: "Steward Li, I can see how the lord treats you. Now that the lord hanged himself in the palace, his bones are not cold. Tell me, Steward Li, if there is anyone here. Tricked?"

Hearing this, Steward Li glanced at Yin Tingchen tremblingly, as if he had been suppressed by the coercion of the emperor, he quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him any more.

Bai Lin walked up to Steward Li, blocked Yin Tingchen's figure, and said, "Don't be afraid, no one would dare to do anything to you with me around, the prince treats you well, and you can't be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, Tell me, if someone really wants to harm the prince, I will never let him go."

Who is General Bai not letting go?Hearing this, Eunuch Xia felt that General Bai really had the guts of a leopard. If anyone couldn't understand General Bai's blatant hint, he would have walked this world in vain.

There is no one who can shout and kill in front of the emperor, and threatens not to let him go. This is the first time for General Bai.

"General Bai, the lord's love for the old slave, the old slave will keep it in his heart all his life, and dare not do anything against the lord... ungrateful things." Li Butler lowered his head and wiped the tears hanging on his face.

"Then why do you think His Highness died?" Bai Lin knelt down and grabbed his other sleeve.

His face was full of vicissitudes, and his cloudy eyes were sunken deep in the eye sockets. He was not as bright and energetic as before.

He said in a low voice and hoarse voice: "When the prince came back from the dungeon, his temperament changed drastically. It was like losing his soul. He spent the whole day drinking to soothe his sorrows. No one dared to come forward to comfort him."

"Until the palace heard about General Bai being sealed, the lord... the lord said that you lied to him, that you were a heartless person, and the common people often talked about it, saying that you gave King Cheng a cuckold... ..." He hastily waved his hands and explained, "General Bai, I don't even believe these words. The prince is just a fan of the situation. He didn't understand General Bai's good intentions, so he just thought that the words of those ignorant people were false. Really, then..."

"My lord hanged himself at night while the servants were away." Steward Li sobbed intermittently, "The next day, as soon as this old slave went in... the lord's body was already dead..."
