The daughter of the first wife is a little fierce: the war god prince loves her to the sky
Chapter 58 Zhang Yue's Request
Bai Chuxiao was a little impatient, "Okay, Aunt Xie, I'm not interested in knowing where the money went. I want you to pay the corresponding amount of money within ten days, otherwise you can keep those words and tell the prefect of Jingzhao."
Xie twisted her handkerchief. She could only think of a way to raise money quickly, otherwise this bitch would not let her go. "I'll do my best..."
Seeing this, the old lady smiled again and asked kindly, "I wonder when His Royal Highness Prince Yan wants to set the wedding date?"
Chu Tianze drank his tea calmly, "Madam, I will take Xiaoxiao's advice on everything."
Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly and said, "Grandma, Father, let's not rush this matter. Let's wait until Aunt Xie returns my mother's dowry."
Bai Linan and the old lady had no choice but to nod their heads, and cursed Xie in their hearts.
After sending Chu Tianze out of the house, Bai Chuxiao turned around and returned to her own Liuli Courtyard, but saw Zhang Yue sitting in the courtyard.
"Ms. Zhang, what are you doing?"
"Yue'er originally wanted to say something, but she didn't expect something like this to happen in the Bai family. Will it disturb Sister Bai?"
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "It's okay, Sister Yue'er, just say whatever you want."
Zhang Yue looked a little worried. "The emperor handed the matter of the prince's assassination to my father for investigation. I'm sure Sister Bai knows about it."
"Sister Yue'er, do you want me to ask King Yan to help your father?"
"I can't hide anything from my sister. Yue'er knows that this is a bit presumptuous. I don't know if Sister Bai is willing to help me. It doesn't matter if she is not willing," Zhang Yue said excitedly.
"Excuse me, but your father may not need the help of His Royal Highness Prince Yan in this matter."
Bai Chuxiao didn't believe that Zhang Yu didn't have some ability to be the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. It was not difficult to find out the truth, but the difficult part was the consequences of reporting the matter to His Majesty. It was obvious that this matter was related to several princes. Through his hands, he offended these bigwigs in the capital. It was inevitable that he would be suppressed in the future. Who knew how many years His Majesty could live?
Zhang Yue bit her lip, "But..."
Bai Chuxiao didn't dislike this cute and straightforward girl who looked innocent.
So he smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister Yue'er. I believe your father knows the situation well."
"Okay, I believe Sister Bai. If Sister Bai has nothing to do, why don't you go to Jingzhao Prefecture with Yue'er to play?" Zhang Yue began to laugh heartlessly.
Bai Chuxiao nodded with a smile. After all, she had just mentioned Jingzhao Prefecture in front of Mrs. Xie. If she went there now, Mrs. Xie would also be nervous, and she could get the money sooner. So she happily left with Lan Xin and Qing Zhu.
She was right. As soon as she left, a maid reported it to Mrs. Xie. As expected, Mrs. Xie was shocked.
This bitch really got involved with Jingzhao Prefecture. What if she suddenly changed her mind and didn't give her ten days? If I really went to see the official, what would happen to Wan'er and my son? If Bai Haoyun had a mother in jail, I'm afraid his career would be hopeless.
Thinking of this, Xie Shi could no longer care about much. Her mother's family was important, but her son was more important. So she took her people and hurried to the mansion of Wenxin Hou.
Qingshuang helped Bai Chuxiao get off the carriage. Qingzhu pointed at the person standing outside the government office and said, "Miss, isn't that Mo Yan?"
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Yes, I should thank them for these days."
As he was talking, Mo Yan had already seen them, and he quickly stepped forward and bowed to Bai Chuxiao, saying, "My subordinate greets the young lady. Why are you here?"
"You are the only one guarding there, nothing happened, right..." Bai Chuxiao asked with a smile
"Having one subordinate is enough. Those villains won't dare to approach me," Mo Yan said proudly.
Qingzhu snorted, "Come on, are you that powerful?"
Mo Yan rubbed his head with a wry smile. He wasn't bragging, okay? He and Mo Wen were not ordinary guards, but had been with the prince through thick and thin for many years. Although they didn't have a proper official position, they were the prince's right and left assistants, so they were almighty, okay...
Bai Chuxiao knocked on Qingzhu's head and said with a smile, "You, don't laugh at others. Learn to be more like Mo Yan and stop making so much noise all day long."
Qingzhu curled her lips. She didn't want to learn from Mo Yan, a blockhead.
"Okay, Mo Yan, just do your own thing and don't worry about me. I'm here to have fun with Sister Yue'er today."
"Yes, I obey my orders."
Seeing that the confidants of King Yan were so respectful to Bai Chuxiao, Zhang Yue couldn't help but re-evaluate the importance of Sister Bai in King Yan's heart. It turned out to be the right thing to invite Sister Bai today.
After entering the inner hall, Zhang Yu was also a little surprised, "Miss Bai?"
Zhang Yue shook Zhang Yu's arm and muttered, "Dad, it was Yue'er who invited Sister Bai to come and play."
Zhang Yu glared at her, then smiled and said, "Yue'er is a little jumpy, please don't blame Miss Bai. I am very happy that Miss Bai can come here today."
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Master Zhang, you are too polite."
A maid came in with a food box, "Master, this is food for the guy in prison."
Zhang Yu called an old doctor to check. After a while, the old doctor nodded. Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows. Zhang Yu was really careful in his work.
Seeing that there was no problem, Zhang Yu felt relieved and smiled at Bai Chuxiao, "It's okay."
Then he called a guard and asked her to escort the maid to the prison.
"and many more……"
Bai Chuxiao asked in confusion, "Lan Xin, is there any problem?"
Lan Xin stepped forward and opened the food box again, took out the chopsticks and examined them for a moment, "Miss, these chopsticks are poisonous."
The old doctor also hurried forward and said after a moment, "Yes, these chopsticks are highly poisonous. I didn't check them for a while and almost made a big mistake. Please forgive me, sir."
The maid was also startled. After all, the food had passed through her hands, so she knelt down quickly and said, "Please forgive me, sir..."
The style and color of this pair of chopsticks are no different from the usual ones, but the inside has long been changed. This pair is clearly made by someone with ulterior motives and mixed with poison powder. At first glance, there is nothing unusual, but if you really use this chopsticks to eat, the prisoner will bleed from all seven orifices and die in a moment.
Zhang Yu's face was livid. He had taken every precaution, but something almost went wrong. He would personally monitor the food every day, but he didn't expect that someone would still take advantage of it. No wonder it was so peaceful in the past two days.
"There should be more Miss Bai this time, otherwise..."
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "It's okay, Master Zhang, why don't you make a decision earlier? It will be useless if you keep dragging it out like this."
Zhang Yu's eyes darkened slightly. He was right. The person behind the scenes was not willing to give in. So don't blame him for being rude. It was hard to say what would happen in the future, but if he messed things up now, he would have no future.
"Miss Bai is right. I have some clues about Zi Yan's matter. I am just waiting for the right time to report to His Majesty. Thank you, Your Highness, the Prince of Yan, for all these days."
"Mr. Zhang, you are too polite. If there is anything I can help you with, please let me know."
If Chu Tianze told this, His Majesty would inevitably become suspicious. But if Zhang Yu told it, it would be different. If he reported it truthfully and made Chu Tianling suffer, it would not be impossible to let Chu Tianze speak for him.
Zhang Yu knew what she meant, so he said gratefully, "Thank you, Miss Bai."
"In that case, I will not disturb you from investigating the case, Master Zhang. Sister Yue'er, let's meet again another day."
Zhang Yueer smiled sweetly, "Okay, Sister Bai, Yueer will give it to you..."
