White Hedge Dream

Chapter 47 There is a girl

There is indeed a sister.

In other words, Bai Xun had three daughters.

Zhang Ze frowned: "Why did I ask people to inquire whether they were told or not?"

The local official in Shuofang was beaten half to death in the cell, but he only cried out that he was wronged and said that he did not know that Bai Xun had a daughter.

Bai Xun's accomplices have long been found out and charged, so it's not like everyone is covering up for him.

After asking Bai Xun's neighbors when he was a school captain, someone said he had a daughter, but when he asked again, he said he was dead or something.

In the end, whether there is something or not, whether it is life or death, there are different opinions.

Bai Ying turned her head slightly and said with tears: "Don't blame everyone for the different opinions. In order to give birth to her, my mother died in childbirth. The family was so sad that the baby was ignored."

There is no cleansing, no publicity, and the new life that comes with death is hated and not mentioned.

Knowing that Bai Xun's wife died early, but he didn't know the reason. It turned out to be dystocia, Zhang Ze was a little surprised: "So you didn't register her in the register? You don't recognize this daughter either?"

Bai Ying shook her head again.

"No, her father recognized her and she was included in the family tree." She said, "It's just that she, she, she is a monster."

monster?

Zhang Ze frowned, and the emperor couldn't help but step forward and asked: "What kind of monster? Does it look inhuman?"

This is also common among the people. The children born are different from ordinary people. They are either mutilated or have multiple limbs, and their faces are ugly like ghosts.

Bai shook his head again, his eyes dim under the light.

"No, it's not her appearance, it's her that makes people go crazy."

go Ape?

Zhang Ze frowned. A child who caused his mother's death would be considered unknown, but what does it mean to make someone crazy?

Bai grabbed the railing, and the light swayed on her face, illuminating the panic in her eyes: "When she was a baby, she would always talk nonsense with her wet nurse and maid, and we didn't notice it at that time. Waiting for her After you can speak, talk to her and she will go crazy. She will either lie down and fall asleep, or dance and sing. "

What does this mean? Zhang Ze couldn't help but look back at the emperor, who also looked puzzled.

"Are those people sick?" the emperor asked.

Seeing the approaching emperor, Bai Ying turned around in panic and covered her head and face with her sleeves again.

"No, no, although she caused her mother's death in childbirth, her father did not hate her. He cherished and cared for her. The wet nurses and maidservants he found for her were all carefully selected. How could she be crazy?"

"Even my father suddenly went crazy. He said he had seen my mother, and suddenly he knelt down and cried bitterly. It was really scary. We brothers and sisters often cried and laughed for no reason, until her eyes were covered, or she wouldn't follow her. Talking makes you feel better."

Her voice trembled from under her sleeves, and the emperor couldn't help but feel nervous.

"As she grew older and saw more people, there were more strange things and more rumors. In order to avoid being criticized, we rarely let her go out, and we no longer mentioned this sister to the outside world. "

This is why when I went to inquire, the answer to whether Bai Xun had a third daughter was so confusing. It turned out that the Bai family had deliberately hidden it. Zhang Ze nodded and understood.

"What's her name?" he asked.

Bai Ying's voice came from under her sleeves: "Li, the name my mother gave her when she was alive."

Zhang Ze repeated the name between his lips and teeth: "Baili."

…

…

elder sister.

The virtuous concubine in the palace, Bai Ying.

Zhou Jingyun looked at the woman opposite.

"How old were you when your sister married King Changyang?" he said.

"She is my second sister. She married King Changyang at the age of sixteen." Zhuang Li said, "I was only five years old at that time."

Zhou Jingyun asked again: "How old were you when you met Mr. and Madam?"

"Ten years old." Zhuang Li said, and then said proactively, "My sister doesn't know that I followed the husband and wife."

She lowered her gaze.

"After she entered the Changyang Prince's Mansion, she had almost no contact with her family, and her father did not tell her about the family affairs. Furthermore, when I was making noises about going to be a maid for Mr. and Mrs., my father was so angry that he refused to admit it. Even if I He scratched his name from the family tree and changed his surname to Zhuang."

Since he refuses to admit it, he will naturally not tell it widely.

Although she lowered her head, Zhou Jingyun still saw a smile appear on her lips when she mentioned her father, but the smile was very shallow and quickly dissipated, leaving only a trace of sadness.

Zhou Jingyun looked away and said, "So, even if she is your sister, she doesn't know your whereabouts."

Zhuang Li hummed, with some recollection in his eyes: "The eldest sister married far away. After I was born, I lost my mother. It is equivalent to her raising me up, and she is like an eldest sister like a mother." "Then she..." Zhou Jingyun wanted to speak. .

Zhuang Li looked at him: "But she has hated me since she was a child, and now she only wants me to die."

Zhou Jingyun's words of sisterly love reached his lips and he stopped.

…

…

The night was getting darker, and the lights in front of the cold palace were brighter, illuminating the woman kneeling on the ground.

"So Bai Li," Zhang Ze said to himself, "take advantage of the fact that outsiders don't know her, then scratch off her name, put aside her relationship with the Bai family, and take advantage of the chaos to escape?"

After saying that, he shook his head.

Impossible, there is no such thing as taking advantage of the chaos. As long as Zhang Ze targets him, not to mention those who come out of the Bai family and anyone passing by outside the Bai family will not be able to escape.

What's more, the house raids were very sudden. Although Zhang Ze often cast a wide net, if he really wanted to attack anyone, it would only be done with lightning speed, and no one could escape.

Unless he was hidden away beforehand, he was not in the Bai family at all.

"I don't know where she can go?" Bai Ying smiled bitterly, "The three tribes were barbarized..."

Moreover, all nine tribes must have been checked by Zhang Ze.

"I entered the prince's palace. I rarely interacted with the family. I only served the prince... and the princess."

After hearing these words, the emperor looked at the woman kneeling on the ground in white clothes and black hair. He felt a little dazed and thought about the past.

Bai Ying entered the palace eleven or twelve years ago. At that time, Bai Ying was sixteen years old. At that time, Bai Xun was just a Zhechong captain, and in the eyes of the royal nobles, he was no different from a commoner.

But at that time, he, a royal nobleman, was not as good as a commoner.

The emperor became more and more terrifying, even the prince was killed. Empress Chiang became more and more powerful, and dignified places began to appear in the court.

The princes and princesses were terrified, fearing that they would be killed in the next moment.

He never thought about recruiting new people. After the emperor killed the prince and hundreds of people in the East Palace, in order to show that he was a loving father, give the princes some comfort, and give the royal family some good news to offset the bad luck, so he gave it to several princes. Newcomer.

As a filial son, he was grateful for his father's reward and respectfully accepted the bride's side wife.

The ceremony was bigger than when I married the princess.

But he didn't feel any charm at all, and was full of panic. It wasn't until he sat in the new house after the church service that he saw the fresh appearance.

The young and pretty girl looked at him shyly and with bright eyes, and said, "Your Highness, I finally married you."

finally….

The word stunned him.

"Your Highness, you have forgotten." The girl looked up at him, full of joy and admiration, "You saved me. Two years ago in Fengzhou City, I took my sister on the street and accidentally encountered a frightened horse. I was about to die under the horse's hooves, but you passed by with your **** and saved me. At that time, I vowed to marry you."

Have you ever saved her? When he passed through Fengzhou with his guards, it must have been when he was demoted out of the capital for the first time. It turned out that they had been destined for a long time, and the King of Changyang was stunned at that time.

The emperor now had a smile on his lips.

Zhang Ze's shout rang in his ears.

"Ms. Bai, if you want to abandon this girl and hide her, you can't do it on a whim. You'd better recruit her honestly. Don't hide the whereabouts of all the candidates your father mentioned."

"Zhongcheng, I didn't hide anything from my concubine. I really don't know where she went. She was only five years old when I left home. After entering the house, I strictly abide by my duty and did not interact with foreign ministers. And then His Highness met with misfortune. We were demoted and banned, and we had no contact with each other.”

Bai's voice whimpered.

The emperor's heart also became heavy. When he was demoted and imprisoned, Empress Chiang deliberately made things difficult and humiliated for him, so that all the maids in the palace were scattered. Bai could have left, but she did not leave, and the servants served him and the princess like slaves.

The queen often said that she and she share weal and woe, so why not the Bai family.

Moreover, Bai still did the hard work with her own hands, unlike the queen who would cry and complain every day and do nothing.

"Okay!" the emperor shouted at Zhang Ze, "She left home early. As a royal family member, she also avoids taboos and does not interact with the family. After so many years, she really doesn't know."

Bai Ying looked at the emperor, fell to the ground and cried, "Your Majesty—"

The chains clattered, and Bai Ying, who was lying on the ground, got up again, grabbed the iron railing, and looked at Zhang Ze.

"Zhongcheng, she is a monster, she is an unknown thing. She killed my mother and now the whole family."

"How could she not die? How could she not die!"

"You have to catch her, you have to catch her!"
