After the new widow, I became a tyrant's tender outer chamber

Chapter 232 Expulsion

After finishing writing, Xuan Rao put down the pen and paper, picked up the rice paper and shook it to let the ink on it dry, and then put his hands together with Jiang Huaiyang.

Ruan Yuyi leaned over slightly to look over, and the paper was slightly tilted to match.

After glancing at the content above, she pursed her lips.

"Daughter of the Bai family." He handed the paper to the palace man beside him, and said in a deep voice.

Wen Zhi went in response.
.
As for when Bai Zhiqi was brought, they had already moved to the side hall.There is a stove burning in the hall, and some incense is mixed in the stove, and this refreshing fragrance will naturally come out with the heat.

On the table is a set of celadon ice-patterned tureen, in which dried flowers made in previous years are soaked, while the gold-woven cloak on the shelf and the small sleeve stove placed on the round stool are all traces of women's lives.

Even though a charcoal fire was prepared here, when Bai Zhiqi came in, he still couldn't calm down for a while, his upper and lower teeth chattered from the cold.

Glancing at Xuan Rao standing on one side, she secretly thought that something was wrong, but her face was still as fragile and innocent as before.

She bowed gracefully, and said in a soft voice, "I have seen His Majesty, I have seen Your Majesty."

She raised her eyes, her eyes were slightly moist, and she seemed to be weeping, "I don't know why your Majesty passed on the reason for the daughter's arrival?" As long as she didn't admit it, it wouldn't matter if she had her aunt to protect her.

Jiang Huaiyang drank his tea by himself, not looking at her, and slack in answering the conversation.

"Did you say it yourself, or did I say it for you?" Ruan Yuyi was feeling down because of Ah Lian, and seeing her refusing to take off her hypocritical face, she felt even more angry.

Because Xuan Rao often came to her palace, she almost regarded him as one of her own, and the two had similar interests on weekdays, so there was no reason not to seek justice for him.

As for who Bai Zhiqi is dating, that's not what she cares about.

He quietly pinched her gentle palm, signaling that she could deal with it as she wanted.

Bai Zhiqi's heart sank, "What is sister talking about?"

Ruan Yuyi looked at her deeply, and said with a sneer, "Where were you just now?"

Things have come to this point, but there are still denials.

"Just now, the courtier was walking by the lake pavilion in the West Palace, and she felt cold, so she went back to the palace." Bai Zhiqi couldn't be sure that no one noticed her on the way back, because she said this half-truth, half-false, which is the most truthful.

Xigong Huxin Pavilion - exactly what Xuan Rao said.

She was brave enough to say so.

"Just like that?"

"That's all." She denied it.

The appearance of Ruan Yuyi's persuasive questioning made her feel somewhat similar to the new emperor.Although her complexion didn't change at this moment, there was already a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

She silently comforted herself that nothing would happen, as there was still her aunt here.Wuguo is filial piety, and I think His Majesty has to pay three respects to his aunt.

At this time, Wen Zhi brought another person up.

This man is dressed as a guard, with broad shoulders.As soon as he came in, he fixed his eyes on Bai Zhiqi, and chuckled in his mouth, as if some scheme had succeeded.

Bai Zhiqi caught a glimpse of him from the corner of her eye, and a chill gradually climbed up her spine.

Wen Zhi kicked the guard's knee lightly, and the guard's leg softened unexpectedly, so he closed his eyes and saluted, "Small crimes deserve death, please Your Majesty to punish."

"A few days ago, it happened that the little one was on duty outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the white girl suddenly came out from inside and started to..." the guard bent down again. For the sake of her, I colluded with her and had a tryst several times."

Originally, he wanted to drag her down and make her fall into the same situation as himself.

But when the words come to the mouth, after all, I still have to defend myself a bit and clear up some relations.In fact, a slap cannot be made.

Jiang Huaiyang said, "Did you hear that?" His voice was lazy and deep.

"My daughter was wronged." Bai Zhiqi was really calm, and she didn't seem to be in the slightest panic at the moment.

Ruan Yuyi led someone to bring the piece of paper written by Xuanrao just now in front of her.

The servant's palace servant happened to be the person in charge of raising Ah Lian in Chang'an Palace, and she was feeling uncomfortable at the moment, her heart moved slightly, and she didn't hand it over properly, causing the rice paper to flutter and stick to Bai Zhiqi's face.

Bai Zhiqi's face twisted, as if the mask was about to shatter.

She took the rice paper, glanced at it, suddenly laughed, raised her eyes and said to Ruan Yuyi, "Your Majesty won't convict the servant girl based on the two underlings? Who knows if they have cheated in advance."

Jiang Huaiyang said lightly, "You forgot how you entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation? There was more than one person on duty that day."

She thought of something, and her body froze slightly.

"If all the members of the whole palace came to identify him, would it be collusion in advance?"

"You have a lot of face, but everyone wants to hurt you."

She lost her knees and fell to one side, with cold floor tiles under her body.

She panickedly glanced at her maid on one side, seeing the maid nodding her head imperceptibly, she felt relieved.

At the first place, Jiang Huaiyang asked slowly, "Lingling, tell me, how should I be punished?"

He knew that she cared about the rabbit, so he deliberately gave her a chance to vent her anger.

Ruan Yuyi's eyes turned slightly, and she whispered a few words in his ear.I don't know what was mentioned, which made him a little funny, "It's up to you."

"Pass down my will, Bai's daughter Bai..."

"Bai Zhiqi." Wen Zhi reminded, the voice just happened to be heard by Bai Zhiqi.

Her face changed and changed.I thought that all men have the same temperament, and the new emperor is still new to that man, she still has a chance, don't you think he didn't think of her at all?
The fantasies about the future life once flooded into her mind, making her face flushed with embarrassment.

Then what did she do before?
The colorful chrysanthemums she sent were clearly accepted by people.

No, everything changed after this person entered the palace. Originally, everything should develop according to her expected trajectory.She raised her dark eyes and stared at Ruan Yuyi.

But what she didn't know was that, except for the first pot of colorful chrysanthemum, Jiang Huaiyang, who managed to take a look at it, all the other pots were piled up in the backyard of Linglong Pavilion only through the hands of Wen Zhi.

After being reminded, Jiang Huaiyang hummed, and continued, "The heart is vicious, the methods are cruel, and it violates the etiquette. From now on, you don't have to be filial to the Queen Mother."

The guard grinned uncontrollably, and lowered his head in a disguised manner.

Although he didn't participate in these twists and turns, but after all, he had heard about these things a little bit as a gatekeeper in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.He knew that this decree sounded innocuous, but even if she went back, it would be as good as before, and there would be nothing to please.

What's more, things like adultery with others spread.

He couldn't help feeling excited-to drag a high mountain flower into the mud.

"What's wrong with this?"

The door of the side hall was pushed open, and the Empress Dowager stepped in, holding the hem of the dark vermilion skirt. Her face still had the deep and stern wrinkles, as if they would not be loosened by anyone.

"Aunt." Bai Zhiqi's eyes brightened slightly, and she called out in a low voice.

The Empress Dowager ignored her and walked straight to the top right, where Ruan Yuyi was sitting.She leaned on a cane and tapped the floor tiles slowly and rhythmically.

thump, thump, thump—

No one urged her until she stood still in front of Ruan Yuyi.
