White Hedge Dream

Chapter 77 Personnel

"Is Empress Chiang's ghost causing trouble?"

Standing outside the third floor, Ruibo frowned after listening to Shangguan Yue's words.

"Really or not?"

Other times, I would naturally tell lies without hesitation, but what Xuanyangzi said...

"Who knows if it's true or not, but it has spread like this." Shangguan Yue leaned on the railing, looked at the Jinshui River in the night, and smiled, "It would be nice if there really is a ghost."

Thinking of Li Julang's death again.

Maybe Hua Xiaoxian really takes revenge.

Revenge for an unjust death, justice for an unjust death, evildoers will be retaliated, and evildoers will be harmed by ghosts. It is so clear and simple that evildoers have to think about it, and the world is much simpler.

However, Shangguan Yue smiled sarcastically: "What I'm afraid of is that people will use ghosts to cause trouble."

Ruibo thought thoughtfully: "I wonder what your Majesty is planning? Chiang Kai-shek's party has arrested a lot of people. It's been more than five years, so the excuses should be changed."

Shangguan Yue was about to say something when a follower came out of the building and said in a low voice: "Master, the matter you asked to be investigated has been found. The arrest document from the Board of Supervisors is for Shuo Fang, who was captured by the Yi clan some time ago." The youngest daughter of Jiedushi Bai Xun, who is also the younger sister of Bai Shi, the concubine in the palace. "

Shangguan Yue and Rui Bo were both a little surprised.

"I didn't expect that someone from the Bai family escaped from Zhang Ze." Ruibo said.

Shangguan Yue thought to herself, no wonder the woman in the dream and the portrait of Concubine Bai turned out to be sisters.

But then he shook his head and said it was the opposite. He must have been thinking about it day and night, and he saw the portrait of Concubine Bai first, so he dreamed of someone who looked like Concubine Bai.

You can't really dream about Concubine Bai's sister.

Wouldn't that be caused by ghosts?

While he was thinking wildly, the attendant continued.

"Also, people in the palace sent news that Empress Chiang Kai-shek's ghost is causing trouble..."

Shangguan Yue nodded: "I just inquired about it and said it frightened His Majesty."

The attendant shook his head: "It's not that I frightened His Majesty, but that I frightened the Bai family, the concubine Xian who was deprived of her title."

It's her? Shangguan Yue and Rui Bo looked at each other and said jokingly, how could Empress Chiang's ghost notice a sinful concubine.

"Ms. Bai, you are pregnant." The attendant lowered his voice, "So the ghost of Empress Chiang Kai-shek wants to harm the emperor's heir."

Shangguan Yue and Rui Bo were stunned.

"That's it." Shangguan Yue said with a smile, patted the railing gently, and looked at the quiet and bright city in front of her, "The emperor's heir worthy of Empress Chiang's ghost is not an ordinary emperor's heir, Bai, no , Concubine Xian is going to resume her title.”

So having said that, there is nothing to be afraid of ghosts. In the end, ghosts are just used by people.

…

…

When the sky was dark, Zhang Ze had already stood outside Hanliang Palace. Although it was early in the morning, there was an endless stream of people coming in and out, including palace maids and female doctors.

Wang Degui was busy and sweating in the late autumn morning.

"Zhongcheng, you are here." He smiled and stepped forward to salute respectfully.

Zhang Ze said with a smile: "Mr. Wang is so busy? Are you exhausted? Do you want me to change your place? Don't worry, I'm not afraid of offending Gao Twelve."

This was a joke that when he was in the cold palace, he asked someone to ask Zhang Ze for a way out, but Zhang Ze said that he should stay there and that a good life would be waiting for him. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true!

Wang Degui bowed deeply to Zhang Ze: "Thank you Zhongcheng for your advice. I will never leave White Lady's side until I die."

Zhang Ze laughed.

Although there were many people here, it was very quiet. Zhang Ze's laughter was very abrupt. People around him looked over with uneasy expressions on their faces.

"Zhongcheng, please." Wang Degui said loudly, "Your Majesty has sent an order, and the empress is waiting for your inquiry."

He said it with a bit of flattery.

"Please be gentle, Zhongcheng. Your Majesty has to raise a baby now."

Zhang Ze gave a faint hum and raised his feet to go in. The maids and palace doctors all retreated out of the way, while Wang Degui stood guard outside the door.

Although it was still early, Concubine Bai had already gotten up, leaning on the beauty's couch with a bowl of soup. She seemed to dislike it being too hot and stirred it slowly with a spoon.

He ignored Zhang Ze's approach, seeming sluggish and lost in thought.

She was still wearing white silk pajamas, with her hair loose and her face pale, but against the gorgeous decorations around her, she was no longer crazy and pitiful, but as charming as a fairy. Zhang Ze leaned over and bowed respectfully: "Congratulations to the empress for getting out of the cold palace so quickly."

Bai Ying still didn't raise her head, looking at the medicine bowl in her hand. The brown medicine was stirring and making ripples.

"Yeah." She said, her voice was clear and cold, not as shaky and weak as when she was in the cold palace. "I'm quite lucky."

Hanliang Hall was originally the resting place of the emperor, and the layout was not so solemn. In addition, the former emperor and empress Chiang were extravagant and overhauled the palace many times, making Hanliang Hall more and more gorgeous.

However, the emperor was frugal and could not bear to live in such a fine palace, let alone give it to his concubines.

"Your Majesty is the first one now." Zhang Ze said with a smile.

Bai Ying raised her head and smiled: "It's thanks to the prince." After that, she drank the medicine in one gulp.

Zhang Ze stepped forward, took the medicine bowl with both hands, and handed the brocade handkerchief to Bai Ying.

Bai Ying sat leaning against him, not moving, not showing any trepidation at Zhang Ze's service, her expression was indifferent and seemed to be in a trance, she took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

Zhang Ze handed over a plate of preserves on the side.

Bai Ying chuckled: "Do people outside know that Zhong Cheng is also good at serving others?" He picked up a piece of candied fruit and ate it.

Zhang Ze smiled, put the plate back, lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you for not disapproving of it."

Some people despised him and refused to use him.

The emotions related to the past flashed away, and Zhang Ze quickly raised his head again.

"The story that Empress Chiang's ghost caused trouble because of her pregnancy has been dissipated, so everyone knows that the emperor's heir in her belly is beyond words."

Bai Ying nodded, stretched out her hand to caress her lower abdomen, and said with some pity, "My child is frightened."

Zhang Ze said: "Next, Your Majesty should restore the throne of concubine to the empress, so that the emperor's heirs will not be wronged."

At this point, Wang Degui shouted from outside the door, "Your Majesty, the Queen has arrived -"

Hearing this shout, Bai Ying raised her hands to cover her face and stood up timidly. Zhang Ze stood still, his figure a little more upright than before.

The emperor walked in quickly, followed by the queen who was pulling a calm face.

"Zhongcheng, Mr. Bai has just found out that she is pregnant, and has been attacked by evil spirits. She is not in good health. If you have any questions, please ask another time." The emperor frowned and said displeased.

The queen said slowly from behind: "Yes, if something goes wrong with the Bai family, Zhongcheng, you are plotting to kill the emperor's heir. The crime is unforgivable. You should be executed just like the remnants of Empress Chiang that you handled."

The emperor looked helplessly at the queen.

The Queen raised her eyebrows: "What? Did I say something wrong again?"

Bai Ying had already knelt down in front of the emperor and empress: "I am guilty. Although this child was born in my belly, your majesty's child is born with blessings. I am guilty because of his blessing."

Weeping and crying.

The Queen snorted, she couldn't see her like this. Bai Ying used to have a dignified and docile appearance, which made His Majesty dote on her, but now she turned into a poignant and timid appearance, which made His Majesty even more obsessed with her.

The emperor sighed softly: "Get up and speak." He paused and looked at Zhang Ze, "Since Zhongcheng is here, I have something to discuss. Bai Xun has been convicted and executed. Bai Ying is a married woman. She married me. I was still young when I was young, and now I have an heir. For the sake of the heir, I plan to pardon Bai Ying and restore her to the position of concubine..."

The queen sneered at the side, but this was expected and there was nothing she could do about it. After all, the emperor's heir was involved. Even if she was the queen, she could not find a reason to refute.

So what if there is an heir? Since the emperor can have children, isn't there only one Bai in the palace, a timid and poignant beauty?

When others also have royal heirs, let's see what kind of trouble the Bai family can create.

The queen turned her head to hide her sneer. As soon as she turned her head, she heard a pop.

"Your Majesty, no."

Bai Ying knelt on the ground and said in tears.

The emperor was startled and hurriedly went to help him, but the queen frowned and looked over. Is this a trick of asking and resigning?

"Your Majesty, I have said that this imperial heir is your majesty's flesh and blood. When he is born, you are his father and the queen is his legitimate mother. Even if I am a sinful concubine, it will not ruin his reputation. If it is because of He forgave his concubine, but it only tarnished his reputation."

Bai Ying cried and grabbed the emperor's outstretched hand.

"I am so ashamed that your Majesty spared my life. I just want to live in the cold palace. Now I am lucky enough to have your Majesty's heir. I can atone for my sin and serve your Majesty."

"I just want to give birth to this child. I don't dare to have the relationship of mother and son with him, let alone forgive my sins because of him."

After saying that, he knelt down in front of the queen and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Empress, since I entered the house, you have been teaching me that my mother died early and my sister married far away. In my heart, you are like my mother's eldest sister. Wherever you have taken me over the years, I am a sinful concubine. It’s no use, please hold me again.”

This was to give her the child. The queen was startled, and then her eyes lit up.
