In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Manager Zhang was extremely embarrassed. This time, the emperor finally sensed that Bai Chuyao's attitude had changed.

The main reason was that the emperor did not grant Bai Liezhao a marriage as the prince had requested.

If Bai Liezhao had been granted a marriage simply as the prince said, the situation would probably not have turned out like this, with Bai Chuyao and Bai Liezhao trapped in such an unbearable situation.

However...Bai Chuyao was confident that he could resolve the matter, which made the emperor feel less guilty.

As the two of them were talking, they heard the prince's sarcastic voice outside: "Oh, father, now you know that Chu Yao's attitude has changed."

"Guess why his attitude changed!?"

When the emperor saw the prince coming, his face turned dark. Just as he was about to scold him, he heard the prince turn around and leave again.

"I will not come to the Imperial Study to talk to you, Father. After all, there is no point in talking to you, Father, and you will not help us."

"I'd better go and help Chu Yao myself."

As he said that, he caught up with Bai Chuyao, and the two of them walked away together.

Looking at the two heroic young men, the emperor shook his head and sighed, then pouted and said to Zhang Zongguan: "I don't care what Chu Yao does...but the prince is such a rebellious son! How dare he say such a thing?! This guy is even being sarcastic to me!"

The emperor was very angry, and said to Zhang Zongguan, "This brat is about the same age as Bai Lu, and it's time for him to get married."

"Go and look for a pretty lady with decent character and good family background. Quickly choose a wife for the prince so that he can live in peace from now on!!"

Manager Zhang immediately bowed and left.

The prince caught up with Bai Chuyao, panting.

He said to Bai Chuyao with some concern: "Brother Chuyao, what should we do about this?"

Bai Chuyao patted the prince on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, we can just go back to the Bai family."

Bai Chuyao did not turn around to pick up Lin. What was the point of picking Lin up?

He could only let Lin face the storm together with him.

But he would not let a delicate lady like Lin, a girl from an official family, face the wind and rain. These were not what she should face...

It’s better for me to settle all the things myself, then go back to the Lin Mansion and bring her back.

"..."

Bai Chuyao pulled the prince, and the two of them leisurely got on a carriage and soon arrived at the Bai family.

At this time, the door of the Bai family was closed and there was no movement inside. It seemed that something had happened, which made the family so gloomy.

After knocking on the door, the servant inside was overjoyed to see that it was Bai Chuyao and the prince coming, and hurriedly saluted Bai Chuyao.

"Oh, young master, you are finally back. Please come in, please come in."

"Hey! Your Highness?! Your servant respectfully welcomes Your Highness... Please come in, please come in..."

After Bai Chuyao and the prince were invited into the main hall, people soon came into the main hall.

Bai Yansong and Xie came in first, followed by the old lady of the Xu family, Censor Xu, and Xu Wanrong's mother, Madam Xu.

The old lady of the Xu family covered her head and pointed at Bai Chuyao tremblingly. She almost passed out from anger.

"Young Master! You must pay for my granddaughter's life immediately!!"

"My Wanrong almost hanged herself in your Bai family just because you wanted to break off the engagement!!"

"Do you know how great a sin this is?!"

"Fortunately... she was rescued after all, and she's still alive... If she hadn't been rescued, she would have been the evil ghost in your house from now on!! She would come to take your life day and night!" "She's just an unmarried girl...!"

The old lady of the Xu family cried and shouted, "An unmarried girl hanged herself in your house. I really don't know...how are we going to move her body back and bury her in the future!"

"By then, our Xu family will still have Wanrong a hundred years later...won't we be ridiculed by the world?"

Lord Xu also started to attack Bai Chuyao: "Young Master...you should have come back last night. We sent people to the Lin Mansion to invite you, so why didn't you come?!"

Mrs. Xu was even more furious. She rolled up her sleeves and almost spitted at his face.

She went up to beat him up, but was stopped by Old Madam Xu and Lord Xu. They quickly said to Madam Xu, "Hey, Shaohan...be patient, be patient. If we beat him up, how are we going to give Wanrong an explanation?!"

Hearing these words, Bai Chuyao looked at him coldly and then curled up a smile.

He asked them bluntly, “So what do you want to do?”

Everyone was stuck. They didn't expect Bai Chuyao to be so straightforward and asked them directly what to do.

Of course they wanted Xu Wanrong to stay in the Bai family and become Bai Liezhao's legal wife.

But... Bai Chuyao is such a sinister and cunning person, is he willing to let Bai Liezhao marry Wanrong? It doesn't seem to be that simple.

Everyone looked at each other, a little confused for a moment.

They all turned to look at Bai Yansong and Xie.

Xie looked at Bai Yansong and said with a smile: "Since this is a matter between women in the harem, you don't have to say anything, sir. Let me handle it."

As she spoke, she walked forward, acting like a principal wife, and spoke to Bai Chuyao with a smile.

"Big brother, you really shouldn't interfere in your brother's marriage like this... Although you are the eldest son and the head of the family... but your father is still alive, and you are so disregarding your father... It's really wrong."

"But since you have intervened in this matter, why not just intervene to the end. Anyway, your reputation is being discussed in the court now. If you don't solve it, I'm afraid your reputation will slowly get worse."

"The Xu family has never asked for anything, they just want to marry Lie Zhao. Chu Yao, you can just announce to the world that Miss Wanrong and the second young master's marriage has been decided, and let this matter rest."

"otherwise......"

She said this with a kind look on her face, and then hesitantly said to Bai Chuyao, "The Xu family said before that they would take you to court."

"If it goes to court, your official position will be implicated. And your son will also be implicated. It is uncertain whether he can take the imperial examination in the future. After all, his father has such a bad character... It's hard to say!"

"And your wife's mother's family is the Lin family. Although the master has resigned from office, he still has many students under his tutelage, and you have several brothers-in-law... What kind of bad result will happen then..."

"My Lord, I think you should understand, right?"

Bai Chuyao nodded calmly, and said to everyone: "I understand."

"But what does this have to do with Lie Zhao?" Bai Chuyao crossed his arms and looked at them leisurely.

"You mean to say that Xu Wanrong hanged herself... because she wanted to marry Lie Zhao, and I disagreed?"

"But I heard that Xu Wanrong hanged herself because she was dissatisfied with her engagement to my brother. She had her heart set on me...she wanted to marry into my inner courtyard and become a concubine, so she hanged herself to show her determination to resist!"
