Chapter 221 She is a Pixiu
Ouyang Ming was thinking that this peace talk was the result of the Xiao family's efforts, and Bai Wei was Xiao Ling's granddaughter. Xiao Ning treated her like a treasure, even more than Xiao Ning in the past.
Prince Qi and Feng Lin had an argument this time. Logically, he should have listened to Xiao Ling, but Xiao Ling had escorted Feng Lin all the way from Southern Xinjiang, and they had been in close contact during that time. If he let Xiao Ling say it... he was worried.
And Bai Wei is very suitable.
Most importantly, she now seemed to be the most emotionally stable person among all the people present, and her words would probably be less biased. Even if she wanted to do something secretly, it would not matter, after all, the peace talks between the two countries were the most important thing at the moment.
Moreover, if she vented her anger in front of the Xiao family today, the Xiao family might be less likely to target Qi'er in the future.
Even if Qi'er is a bastard, confused and makes him feel disappointed, he is still his son after all. It is better to deal with him himself than to be targeted by others every day and be much safer.
But how could Ouyang Qi understand Ouyang Ming's thoughts? When he heard his father give the right to speak to Bai Wei, he immediately wanted to refute, because he felt that Bai Wei would definitely take this opportunity to retaliate against him: "Father, I can't..."
Ouyang Ming said sternly, "Shut up. Don't you think you haven't caused enough trouble today?"
After these words were spoken, Ouyang Qi could only shut up, and Bai Lian couldn't say anything else.
As for the others, they simply didn't say anything, as if they had no objections.
Ouyang Ming looked at Bai Wei, his eyes gentle as he said, "Wei'er, get up and answer the question."
Bai Wei stood up and recounted everything that had happened today from beginning to end.
Unbiased, simply stating the facts.
She wanted to take the opportunity to say something to Ouyang Qi, but it was meaningless. After all, there were many people watching, and most of them had been here to watch the show from the beginning.
Deliberately saying something targeting him would only give Ouyang Qi and Ouyang Ming a handle and cause more trouble. There was no need for that.
What's more, even if she told the truth, no one she didn't want to have an easy life today would be able to escape.
After hearing this, Ouyang Ming realized that it was not what he thought. Bai Wei was an outsider. On the contrary... Bai Wei was the fuse of this incident.
He looked at Doctor Zhao who was lying on the ground and had fainted. Doctor Zhao's face looked even more terrifying at this moment. As the small blisters grew bigger, there was no space left, and finally some of them connected together to form many large blisters.
Doctor Zhao's face was like the back of a toad, but even more disgusting and terrifying than that. It made people feel physically uncomfortable just by looking at it.
"This kind of rubbish, who has poor medical skills and can't even feel the pulse of a dead or living person, doesn't need to be detoxified in my opinion. Just take him away and beat him to death with sticks. Order his family members not to collect his body!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Imperial Guards stepped forward and dragged the man away. The man did not wake up when he was dragged away.
Feng Lin smiled brightly: "The Emperor of East Qin is quite courageous, but it seems that there is more than one person who should be dealt with."
Bai Lian shuddered subconsciously and looked at Feng Lin.
Obviously, the emperor wanted to settle the matter peacefully and stop investigating it, so he punished Doctor Zhao and didn't even give him a chance to speak. But now... Feng Lin is holding on to it.
why?
Is it because King Qi is against him that he wants to find trouble for himself?
However, she will be fine, and this matter will definitely not implicate her.
"Tao'er, what's going on?"
Bai Lian took the initiative and looked at Tao'er, but her hand subconsciously touched her wrist. On that wrist, there was a silver bracelet that was obviously inconsistent with her status. The style was simple and very thin. It didn't look like something that a young lady from the Shangshu Mansion, the concubine of Prince Qi, would wear.
Her movements were very subtle and not many people saw it, but Taoer definitely saw it.
Seeing this, Tao Er knelt down, her body shaking like a sieve, her face as pale as rice paper: "Second Miss, it was me, I colluded with Imperial Doctor Zhao and used the sachet to frame the eldest Miss!"
Bai Lian widened her eyes and pretended to be incredulous: "Why did you do this?"
Tao'er trembled and cried, "Tao'er was originally a maidservant beside the Third Miss. She followed the Second Miss after the Third Miss got married. In the Shangshu Mansion, the eldest lady relied on her eldest daughter and the support of the Xiao family. She beat and scolded you and the Third Miss, and treated the servants harshly.
Now that the second young lady has married into the Prince Qi's mansion, the eldest young lady still refuses to let you go, deliberately using refugees outside the capital to put pressure on the emperor, causing you to not even have the opportunity to hold a wedding banquet. This servant just can't swallow this breath!"
As soon as these words came out, a trace of grievance flashed across Bai Lian's face, and a pair of eyes that were three parts melancholy and seven parts lonely were filled with sadness: "You are confused, no matter what, you shouldn't do such a thing! Now that you have done such a thing, how can I protect you!"
As she spoke, she turned around and leaned on Ouyang Qi and started crying.
The onlookers started talking again.
"Although this maid did something wrong, she is still a loyal servant."
"No, I've always heard that in the Shangshu Mansion, it was the Second Miss and the Third Miss who bullied General Bai everywhere. I didn't expect it to be the other way around."
"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. If General Bai was oppressed in the Shangshu Mansion, would this be the outcome? Do you know who Miss Bai was married to? Wang Ren!"
"You're talking about the one from the Wang family who's no good..."
"Yes, if the second and third ladies of the Bai family were really more favored in the mansion, how could they end up like this?"
"The life of a concubine in the family is already difficult. She finally won the favor of King Qi. It is understandable that she wants to get King Qi's protection."
"Who are you? How hard is her life to be able to steal her eldest sister's husband on her wedding night?"
"Oh, who made this eldest sister so arrogant and domineering in the mansion, bullying the second and third young ladies Bai too much? Even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered!"
"I know you are the concubine of the Fang family. You are so sympathetic to this bitch today. Could it be that you have made such a plan? No wonder I saw you talking with your eldest sister's husband in a remote place in your house before. It turns out that you have such thoughts! I will go back and tell your eldest sister to be careful!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the woman.
The woman immediately looked at the frowning man in panic: "Don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, if you talk nonsense again, I will die in front of you now!"
The noisy voices annoyed Ou Yangming: "Enough!"
He really didn't expect that the diplomatic issues between the two countries had finally been resolved, but now the Bai family's family affairs were dragged into it: "No matter what the original intention of this maid was, she colluded with others to frame General Bai. Drag her down together and beat her to death!"
Just when everyone thought the matter was about to be settled, Bai Wei said, "Wait!"
Ouyang Ming frowned: "Weier, do you have anything else to say? Today is the Taiping Banquet."
His meaning was very clear. This was a place to discuss national affairs, not a place to discuss family matters.
Bai Wei certainly understood what Ouyang Ming meant, but the Destiny System had just issued a warning: "Warning, warning, if the host sister cannot restore her reputation today, and instead makes everyone sympathize with the luck snatcher, the 2% of luck value snatched today will be snatched away again!"
She is a Pixiu. Once she gets something, she will never give it away.
