Chapter 421
"and many more."

Seeing her turning around to leave, Imperial Concubine Xuan got up and called her: "Isn't it because you want to curry favor with the Empress Dowager that you have done so many things for the emperor? You are an ambitious little girl, and you want to gain power. Is not it?"

"Yes," Bai Ruotong nodded, "but Ruotong cannot make decisions for His Royal Highness because of his own affairs. If the purpose of the imperial concubine is to please His Royal Highness, it is a matter between the imperial concubine and her highness. , Ruotong is not qualified, nor can he make decisions for His Highness.

Therefore, Ruotong could not agree to the imperial concubine's request today. "

Bai Ruotong's words were already clear.The sincerity of Imperial Concubine Obfuscation is one aspect, and ambition is another aspect.Just relying on her few words, how could Bai Ruotong trust her?

In case she had other plans, verbally claiming to be attached to His Highness, but actually using His Highness as a springboard to betray His Highness in the future, wouldn't she be the one who helped pass the knife?

"I won't force you, I will give you time to think about it," Concubine Yu no longer persecuted. Although she had not been in contact with Bai Ruotong for a long time, with her care for her royal son, Concubine Yu was enough to trust her. Her personality, "I was the one who made a slip of the tongue just now. I should be grateful for what you did to the emperor. I will not miss the gift that should be given to you."

Bai Ruotong was in a daze, and when he was considering how to speak, Concubine Yu waved her hand with a smile: "Go down and rest first."

When Bai Ruotong heard the words, he had no choice but to bow and bow and then retreat.

……

Zhenxihou Mansion.

Bai Ruotong had been away for half a month, it was supposed to be the day when the old lady should return home, but the old lady came back with a letter, saying that she would stay in Foshan for another month.Bai Shutang sent someone to inquire about the reason, the old lady said that she met a god, and the god said that Zhenxihou's mansion will encounter a catastrophe, if you want to survive this disaster, you must devote yourself to worship in the Buddhist hall.

Bai Shutang has always sneered at the theory of ghosts and gods.But since it was the old lady's idea, he would not object.

The sun was shining brightly, the leaves were golden, and the shade of the trees swayed on the green mud floor through the sunlight.In Shengru's courtyard, Bai Chusheng was wearing an official robe, and was about to stand up and go towards him, but Jingxian caught up behind him, straightened his slightly wrinkled cloud sleeves, and said with a smile, "Come back earlier."

"These days, I heard from the maid that you would leave Shengruyuan. Where did you go?" Bai Chusheng asked.

"Go to Fifth Madam's courtyard." Jingxian replied.

"What are you doing in Liniang's courtyard?" Bai Chusheng frowned, that Liniang was clearly Bai Yinling's, and it was not a good thing for Jingxian to be close relatives of her.

Jingxian forced a smile: "Fifth Madam, like me, is a girl from a poor family. Talking to her can save you from boring time. Don't worry, Fifth Madam treats me very well. I will pay attention to myself and won't provoke unnecessary trouble."

"Well, but it's better to go less often. This Liniang, I always feel a little weird. You'd better have less contact with her." Bai Chusheng replied.

"Chu Sheng thinks she's weird because she looks like the third girl's mother, right? Everyone has their own difficulties. Just believe me, this Liniang is not as bad as we think."

Jing Xian explained.

Bai Chusheng still felt a little uneasy, but he was in a hurry to go to court, and he couldn't have a long talk with Jingxian for a while.Patting her hand, Bai Chusheng said, "I'll talk to you in detail when I come back."

"En." Jingxian nodded and sent Bai Chusheng out of the courtyard.

……

Qingling courtyard.

"Miss, hasn't His Royal Highness been here these days?"

Hongye pushed open the door, and saw Bai Yinling sitting in the hall flipping the pages of a book, whispering worriedly.
