White Hedge Dream

Chapter 175 Sigh

Bai Ying really lamented that with their backgrounds, the princes and princes were not the family they could marry.

She climbed up to Empress Jiang, who raised her hand and lifted her up to a high place.

But what about Baili?

Because of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan? Poor orphan? A monster who was supposed to kill his mother and bring bad luck to everyone became the wife of Dongyang Hou Shizi and was carefully protected...

"Sure enough." Bai Ying murmured: "It is not a bad thing to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. Is this also a good thing?"

Zhang Ze frowned: "Your Majesty, be careful what you say."

He glanced inside the palace, where Wang Degui and several palace maids lowered their eyes and remained silent.

The people around Bai Ying have also been screened by him, and he is not afraid of them hearing.

It's just that there are some things that are inconvenient to think about and say. If you say too much, it will inevitably be exposed.

"Your Majesty, it's not time to get carried away yet." Zhang Ze said coldly.

These words really didn't sound very nice. Bai Ying's face stiffened slightly, but then became soft again.

"Thank you, Zhongcheng, for reminding me." She thanked her seriously.

Zhang Ze didn't say anything more and just continued to ask Bai Ying what happened.

Bai Ying explained in detail what Zhou Jingyun had said about coming to inform her and taking refuge in her.

Finally, talking about the palace banquet: "First of all, I want to confirm whether she is my sister. Secondly, of course I also want to keep the person and wait for you to come back to deal with it, but I didn't expect..."

Zhou Jingyun actually threw the person downstairs with his own hands.

Bai Ying reached out and pressed her heart. This scene made her unable to sleep well for several days.

"Are you sure you are really dead?" Zhang Ze asked, "These Chiang Kai-shek gang members have tricks in their hands. The Queen Mother was frightened by Chiang Kai-shek's ghost several times. This should be their method."

At this point he sneered again.

"You're right, my sister is indeed a monster."

Looking back on the few times they met, even if he had doubts before going, he was relieved after seeing her, or forgot about her. Now that he thinks about it, he still has no impression of her appearance.

Those charlatans said that this was a witchcraft.

And he is a monster even more powerful than when he was a child. Bai Ying thought, this is also her fault. In fact, she had doubted it at the beginning, but the ghost of Empress Chiang Kai-shek appeared in the imperial city. It was so reasonable and fitting. Her sister was not worth mentioning. It was her. I underestimated her until the night of the palace banquet.

She kept thinking about those days and also thought of several vague memories of seeing the ghost of Empress Chiang Kai-shek.

But it is obviously Baili's method.

"But no matter how powerful the method is, it is nothing but evil magic." Bai Ying said, "There is the Imperial Bell, there is the Sanqing Bell, and it is in the imperial city. In the end, she suffered it herself, and her face was covered with blood from the backlash."

She looked at Zhang Ze.

"Before Zhou Jingyun threw her down, I thought she was going to die."

"We have all seen her body, and the imperial doctors have also diagnosed and treated her. It is absolutely true."

"Xuan Yangzi also came that day and said everything was as usual."

Zhang Ze frowned and said, "I'm still worried. I also want to see the body with my own eyes."

Bai Ying looked at him and shook her head: "That's not good."

not good? Zhang Zezhen looked at Bai Ying: "Isn't it bad for Zhou Jingyun?"

Digging graves hurt Zhou Jingyun's face?

Is this what Zhou Jingyun meant when he asked him to ask Concubine Bai? Will Concubine Bai protect him?

Bai Ying smiled: "I don't mean it's necessary."

Zhang Ze said coldly: "So the empress believed Zhou Jingyun's words?"

Did you believe what he said about being deceived by Zhuang Feizi and Bai Li?

Do you believe what he said and are willing to devote all your wealth to Concubine Bai?

Bai Ying smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. It's Zhou Jingyun who has no choice."

She stood up as she spoke, and Wang Degui hurriedly supported her.

"It's him who wants something from me, not me who wants something from him. What does it matter whether his feelings for me are true or false?"

"Since he killed his wife and wanted to use it for me to preach, why shouldn't I use it?"

"If it's useful, use it. If it's not useful, just kill it."

She looked at Zhang Ze.

"It doesn't matter whether my sister is really dead or fake."

"Zhongcheng, have you forgotten that our Bai family is not really a party to Chiang Kai-shek, and what you really want to do is not to eliminate Chiang Kai-shek's party."

Zhang Ze looked at her without speaking.

Bai Ying helped Wang Degui walk a few steps forward, looked at Zhang Ze, and asked with a smile: "Zhang Ze, what are you really going to do?"

When pressed in front of him, Zhang Ze's face was not ugly and he replied: "Shock Xiaoxiao, strengthen your power, cultivate your ears and eyes, and protect your empress."

Bai Ying smiled and felt a little sad: "Thank you Zhongcheng. It is because of Zhongcheng's promise that I found hope in this imperial city. Otherwise, I would have had no choice but to jump into the Taiye Pool and die early." ”

Zhang Ze smiled and said: "This is also my life. A villain like me is the orthodox emperor. In troubled times, he uses me as a sword to scare the officials. When things are stable, he kills them to appease them. He has no shortage of me as an official, my empress." It’s different. The ladies and queens are looking for a chance to survive in this imperial city. They need me more and longer.”

Bai Ying looked at him: "I will be inseparable from Zhongcheng for a long time in the future." She said with a sincere expression, "Zhongcheng, please don't blame me for making my own decisions and accept Zhou Jingyun's help."

Zhang Ze bowed and said, "I am worrying too much." Then he raised his head and looked at Bai Ying, "Your Majesty is not an ordinary woman, who will be confused by beauty."

Bai Ying chuckled and raised her sleeves to cover her mouth: "However, Prince Zhou is indeed beautiful."

She sighed again when she said this.

"My sister will have no regrets in her life if she can marry this man."

She still remembered that Zhou Jingyun held Bai Li in his arms, carefully wiping off the blood bit by bit, arranging his hair and hair, and his eyes were filled with warmth.

He also said that although Zhuang Feizi and Bai Li deceived him, he was willing to marry Bai Li.

Then he picked up the wife he wanted to marry and threw her downstairs.

Bai Ying reached out and pressed her heart, and she could still feel her heartbeat beating violently.

There is love, but love is nothing compared to wealth and future.

Yes, for a person of the prince's level, love is the least worth mentioning.

That's okay. He killed her sister with his own hands. He has feelings for her sister and he feels guilty for her sister, so he should make it up to her sister.

younger sister. Actually, I didn’t take a good look at it that night.

Looks a lot like her.

It’s not like it was when I was a kid.

It feels like I have grown up in the blink of an eye.

When she left home, she sat in the car and kept looking back. Her father didn't come to see her off, but her sister did.

That skinny child hid on the roadside for some time in advance, and then ran and ran with the carriage...

Bai Ying's tears welled up.

"My sister died like this..." she choked, covering her face with her hands, "She couldn't, she died like this..."

Zhang Ze looked at the crying woman and did not comfort or stop her. He only asked: "What do you want, the empress?"

Bai Ying raised her hand to wipe her tears: "I think the queen should be dealt with."

Now the queen no longer pretends to be virtuous. She may be thinking that she is about to give birth and is too lazy to pretend.

Although this is a good thing, Bai Ying is too lazy to endure it.

"My baby is about to be born." She lowered her head and stroked her belly, "Let him be born in peace and quiet. It happened that a noble lady fell downstairs and died. This is a good opportunity."

Zhang Ze thought deeply and then smiled: "Yes, there happens to be a clean person available."

…

…

Zhou Jingyun did not wait for Zhang Ze at the cemetery, nor at the Dongyang Marquis Mansion. He was on his way to court three days later.

When Zhang Ze came over, Zhou Jingyun was surrounded by several officials, comforting him with "sorry and resignation" and "you're still young, don't think too much."

"Yes, you are still young, so don't ask for help when you are sad." A voice came, "How many nine years can there be in life?"

These words immediately reminded everyone that Zhou Jingyun was away from home for so many years after his first wife died, and he only came back last year.

Because I came back with a new wife, I didn’t expect that the new wife also died just after the Chinese New Year. This...

Recently, the most lively topic in the inner circle is whether Zhou Jingyun is a wife-killer.

They were all a little annoyed when they heard that a person as clean and proud as Zhou Jingyun was afraid that they would have to avoid him again.

Someone immediately grabbed Zhou Jingyun and said, "Yes, yes, that's right. Don't..."

The voice suddenly stopped because he saw that the person speaking was Zhang Ze.

Although this is correct, it is wrong to echo Zhang Ze.

The scene turned cold for a moment.

Zhang Ze didn't mind everyone's avoidance and patted Zhou Jingyun on the shoulder.

"Your Majesty, check the accounts for me quickly, lest I can't find anyone after you leave." He seemed to be joking.

At this time, this matter is not suitable for joking at all.

Everyone looked dissatisfied.

Zhou Jingyun looked calm, took a step away from Zhang Ze, and said calmly: "There is no one in the world that Zhongcheng can't find, please come with me."

Take one step forward.

Zhang Ze didn't speak anymore and followed slowly.

In the official office, because the people from the Board of Supervisors were standing outside, other officials retreated.

"I didn't expect it." Zhang Ze sat down. He no longer had the murderous intention as before in the cemetery, but looked at Zhou Jingyun across from him with sneer eyes, "I actually sat at the same table with the prince."

He caressed the table and made a pun.

Zhou Jingyun said calmly: "Everything in the world is impermanent."

Zhang Ze looked at him: "It's such a pity that the prince's face has been ruined."

"No." Zhou Jingyun said, "Even if I sit with Zhong Cheng, I'm still prettier than Zhong Cheng."

Is this a pun?

Even if he took refuge with the palace concubine like Zhang Ze, his reputation would be better than Zhang Ze's?

Zhang Ze smiled and looked at Zhou Jingyun: "So it turns out that the person who looks like a dog is you."

After saying that, he leaned forward slightly.

"My queen has something to ask you to do."

Zhou Jingyun looked calm: "Say."

Zhang Ze approached him and whispered a few words, sat back and looked at Zhou Jingyun with a half-smile.

"Prince Zhou, since you have become a dog, then go and bark a few times so that the queen can listen."

…

…

"The prince is here."

Gao Twelve stood outside Hanliang Hall and looked at Zhou Jingyun who was approaching.

He no longer dared to make things difficult for Zhou Jingyun.

"Your Majesty is not busy, please follow me directly in."

Zhou Jingyun nodded.

Gao Twelve walked into the hall, about to cross the threshold, and turned around to see Zhou Jingyun still standing there.

"Prince?" He was a little confused and invited again, "Please."

Zhou Jingyun looked at him and smiled, nodded and stepped forward.

Gao Twelve crossed the threshold.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince Dongyang is here."

"Jingyun is here, come quickly, there is a painting for you to take a look at."

"Hey? Jingyun, what are you doing? There's no need to give such a big gift!"

"Get up quickly! Don't kowtow!"
