Take back your luck! Kill your crazy enemy and remarry the scumbag uncle

Bai Wei frowned and looked at Bai Lian in front of her: "It clearly has a human mouth, why does it bark like a dog when it opens?"

Bai Lian's face flushed immediately: "Eldest sister, this is the imperial palace, how can you speak like this in front of the noble?"

Bai Wei raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Lian calmly: "I am doing this for your own good. If you were not barking like a dog just now, then you would have been making up rumors and slandering the court officials. This is a serious crime. Since you don't appreciate it... then let the emperor drag you away and punish you with a cane."

After hearing this, Bai Lian finally realized that Bai Wei was not only the eldest daughter of the Bai family, but also a general of Dong Qin. She held an official position. Even though she could not go to the battlefield now, Ouyang Ming did not remove her from her official position.

She immediately put on a pitiful, bullied look and knelt on the ground delicately: "Your Majesty, I don't mean to slander my elder sister. It's just that everyone knows that my elder sister has been living outside and has not received a good education. But now she can answer questions fluently without even thinking. How can an ordinary person do that?"

She prepared for a long time and worked hard to write those poems, but compared with what Bai Wei said, they were still far inferior. How could she have written them herself?

Someone definitely told her the title of the poem, and she spent a lot of money to find many talented people to do it, but she just recited it on the spot.

As soon as Bai Lian said this, everyone finally came to their senses from shock and amazement.

Yes, can you really write poetry without thinking? This does not seem reasonable.

Bai Lian knelt again and said, "The Empress held this spring banquet and asked the daughters of the officials in the capital to compete just to add some fun to the flower viewing. I am not trying to win or lose by exposing my elder sister, but to seek justice for all the women who participated in the competition. Even if she is my elder sister and represents the Bai family, such behavior is not acceptable!"

As soon as these words were spoken, some people immediately began to praise Bai Lian's behavior, especially those who were participating in the competition themselves, or those who had sisters participating in the competition on site, and they all joined in criticizing Bai Wei.

"This second young lady of the Bai family is really generous, she sacrificed her relatives for the sake of justice."

"Yeah, I thought it was the Immortal Poet who had descended upon us and made General Bai, who didn't know poetry, suddenly become full of poetry. It turns out it was cheating."

"The emperor also set the questions, so I think he should be punished the same as those who stole the questions from the imperial examination!"

"You're right. If you're not good at studying, you can learn. But if you steal questions secretly, that's a crime of deceiving the emperor. You deserve to die!"

"..."

Ouyang Ming frowned when he saw this, but he didn't say anything, because once he opened his mouth, he would have to make a decision.

If Bai Wei really stole the questions, he would have to punish her, but he had not yet figured out how to punish her so as not to offend Prince Zhennan.

Concubine Wang also seized this opportunity and spoke directly, "What Miss Bai said is not without reason. I have never heard Minister Bai and Prince Zhennan mention that General Bai can write poems. Could it be that he knew the topic long ago and prepared for it, so he could answer it so fluently without thinking."

The meaning is very clear, Bai Wei is cheating.

As she spoke, she put her hand on Ouyang Ming's arm again, with the intention of forcing him to deal with Bai Wei.

Originally, she just wanted Bai Wei to be embarrassed and lose face at this Spring Banquet to pay for the embarrassment she made Ouyang Qi suffer at the Spring Hunt. But she didn't expect that Bai Wei would be so bold as to steal the questions, yet so stupid as to not even pretend in order to steal the limelight. Isn't this a perfect opportunity to punish her?

This time, if she didn't let her suffer a heavy loss, she would be too soft-hearted.

She had actually been prepared for Concubine Wang to step on her. After all, Concubine Wang was Ouyang Qi's mother, and she and Ouyang Qi were basically incompatible now. It was too common for Concubine Wang to target her.

Just as Bai Wei was about to speak, she heard a noise in her head. It was the voice of the mentally retarded system "Resurrecting from the Dead": "It is detected that the host's reputation has been damaged. The snatcher has been praised. The luck value has returned to the snatcher's 1% again. There is still 95% left to regain the luck. Please cheer for the host."

Bai Wei: "..."

This damn idiotic system, when she was praised just now and Bai Lianhua was said to be unworthy of her reputation, it didn't jump out to say that she had regained her luck points. But now that she was being blamed by Bai Lianhua, it reacted quickly enough.

After so many times of understanding, although the system is an artificial retardation, she still found out some things. That is, the luck points snatched back on the same day are not stable, but fluctuating. If her reputation is damaged and the luck snatcher Bai Lian is praised by others, the luck points she has finally snatched back will return to her again.

She would never tolerate such a thing happening!

Ouyang Ming looked at Concubine Wang's hand on his arm, feeling a little unhappy, because Concubine Wang was basically forcing him to deal with Bai Wei immediately.

"Bai Wei, did you steal the questions?"

If such a thing really happened, it would be at least 80 feet, even if it was reduced by half for the sake of the Zhennan King. According to the Zhennan King's temperament, he would definitely be heartbroken, and he would definitely complain to him privately for several months after returning. But he couldn't take sides now, so he could only blame Bai Wei for doing something wrong.

Bai Wei took a step forward, but did not kneel down. She said calmly, "Your Majesty, my second sister accused me of stealing the questions, but I have not been to the palace in recent days, let alone interacting with the nobles in the palace. How can I get the questions?"

The meaning was very clear, he did not have the channel to obtain the questions. On the contrary, if Bai Lian wanted to steal the questions, it would be very simple and cruel.

Faced with such an accusation, Bai Lian immediately defended herself: "Your Majesty, how can I..."

Concubine Wang frowned slightly.

Yes, after Bai Wei and Ouyang Qi got engaged, he often came to please her, and she often went in and out of the palace at that time. But after the wedding, she changed. Except for the emperor's summons before, she had never entered the palace. How could she get the test questions?

"I heard that General Bai has been very close to His Royal Highness Prince Yi in recent days..."

He didn't finish his words, but it was clear enough that Ouyang Yi helped Bai Wei steal the questions.

Ouyang Ming was immediately furious: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Prince Yi do this? Don't make such nonsense!"

The angry voice was so loud that Wang Guifei was stunned for a moment. After all, she had followed Ouyang Ming for more than 20 years. Even though he and the queen were married, the favor she received was incomparable to that of the queen. From beginning to end, he had never treated her like this, but today he actually yelled at her in front of everyone, and it was for a useless person like Ouyang Yi.

Concubine Wang's fingers were shaking with anger, but she could only say unconvincedly: "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was I who spoke out of turn."

But since he had spoken, it was inevitable that everyone's attention was drawn to Ouyang Yi.

Ouyang Yi was calm and composed. Not to mention that he could not see those inquiring eyes at all, even if he could see them, he did not care at all. He said calmly, "Your Highness, you may not know that I encountered an assassination attempt on my way to the Mountain Resort half a month ago. It was because of that assassination that I have been recuperating in the Mountain Resort until today when I returned to the capital."

The meaning was clear, and he had no chance to steal the questions.

Ouyang Ming was also stunned for a moment, and immediately slammed the table heavily. "I also sent someone to Prince Yi's Mansion to invite you to accompany me to the palace. The person who came to report just said that you were unwell and stayed in the Summer Resort. I thought it was just an old illness that bothered you, but I didn't expect that there was an assassination! Has the murderer been caught?"

Ouyang Yi said calmly: "Although the murderer left no one alive, I have found some clues based on the corpse."

Ouyang Ming immediately asked, "Oh, who is so bold?"

Ouyang Yi continued, "There are still some things that I have not yet investigated clearly, and I have no solid evidence, so I have not reported it to you. Rumors can melt gold, and slander can destroy a person. If you make random accusations without any solid evidence, how is it different from making up rumors and slandering others?"

This double entendre not only refers to the assassination, but also to the fact that Bai Lian inexplicably stood up and maliciously implicated Bai Wei. The high and low character of their people formed a sharp contrast in this second.
