My elder sister stole my marriage? She regretted and cried after I married the general.
Chapter 174: The county lady's face is rotten, Bai Zhi is arrested
Madam Liu is the wet nurse of Princess Jiahe and a prominent figure in the *** Mansion. What could have made her come here in person?
Bai Zhi showed a little timidity when she saw the people from the *** Mansion.
The face that had been slapped by Zhao Qingyao still seemed to be painful.
"Who is the shopkeeper?" Matron Liu asked arrogantly as she came in.
Bai Zhi frowned and asked, "I'm the boss, what do you want?"
"Your rouge has damaged our county lady's face!" Aunt Liu said expressionlessly, "Since you are the boss, come with us!"
"What?" Bai Zhi opened her eyes wide in astonishment, "You said there's something wrong with my rouge, how is that possible?"
"The facts are before us. Our county lady used the rouge from your shop and got many red rashes on her face. The queen was furious and ordered me to arrest her. Anyone who dares to resist, don't blame me for being rude!" Matron Liu said sternly.
A servant of the imperial palace actually had the power to overwhelm the entire place!
Baizhi witnessed for the first time: a dog taking advantage of the power of his master!
She panicked a little and suspected that Zhao Qingyao was playing tricks on her - since she couldn't get the power to be the head of the family, she wanted revenge!
"Come here, capture him!" Madam Liu gave an order, and several soldiers from the *** mansion came forward to capture the man.
Bai Zhi quickly signaled to the shopkeeper: Go find the third young master!
But the shopkeeper was so frightened that he didn't receive her hint.
The closest savior at hand is Ye Qinghuan.
"Second Madam, there is absolutely no problem with my rouge. Someone is framing me. Please save me!" Bai Zhi, contrary to her previous arrogance, pleaded pitifully.
Chunyan was speechless and murmured quietly: "Madam, don't help her."
Ye Qinghuan looked at Bai Zhi calmly, neither saying whether to help nor not to help.
The more this happened, the more panicked Bai Zhi became.
The Wang family of this era is the law. It is possible that *** would kill her in anger!
"Madam, I was wrong in the past. Please save me this time. I will definitely repay you." Bai Zhi showed her flexible character to the fullest.
Ye Qinghuan then asked Aunt Liu: "Since the empress wants to interrogate someone, you can take her away. When you are done, let her come back."
"I will do my best." Nanny Liu bowed respectfully to Ye Qinghuan.
This is the benefactor who saved the county lady, and she must repay him.
But Bai Zhi was someone that Zhao Qingyao and the county lady wanted to deal with. Bai Zhi's departure would be dangerous. She had no say in the matter.
Ye Qinghuan heard the reluctance in her tone and knew that the matter was not simple.
After Bai Zhi was taken away, the shopkeeper was asked to return to the general's mansion to report to Shen Rong.
The shopkeeper came back to his senses and said shrewdly, "Why not let the Second Madam go and tell them in person..."
"I have something important to do." Ye Qinghuan turned and left.
Since Bai Zhi was her uncle's daughter, she couldn't just watch her die. But if she tried to save her, Shen Rong would think she cared about Bai Zhi.
Therefore, Shen Rong could only go and save him himself.
Chunyan said angrily: "Like master, like servant. Baizhi herself is inactive, and her subordinates are cunning."
"With subordinates like this, her business won't last long." Ye Qinghuan shook his head, "But she still needs to be saved."
"Madam!" Chunyan was dissatisfied, "Let her die so that we can have peace!"
"You do not understand."
Ye Qinghuan got into the car with a smile, took out the feather fan given by Shen Lin, and leisurely fanned the warm air.
It was good to have a separate residence. Apart from her and Shen Lin's affairs, she wouldn't have to worry about anything else. Otherwise, she would have to go and rescue Bai Zhi herself.
----
Shen Rong was very happy to hear that Bai Zhi's rouge shop was doing good business.
Old Madam Shen also praised her highly: "When she first came to the mansion, she showed excellent accounting skills. I didn't expect that she could do business! This skill can bring a lot of income to our mansion."
"Mother, she is from the Bai family. She was born with a talent for business." Shen Rong said with a smile.
Madam Shen looked around to see if there was anyone around and asked, "Rong'er, tell your mother the truth. Is she really from the Bai family?"
"Of course."
"Then why didn't Ye Qinghuan recognize her?"
Shen Rong pondered.
Maybe there was not enough evidence, or maybe Ye Qinghuan deliberately denied it.
Ever since he returned to Beijing, Ye Qinghuan seemed to be less interested in looking for the Bai family, which made him unable to understand Ye Qinghuan's thoughts for a while.
"Mother, you must support Bai Zhi in whatever she wants to do in the future. All the truth will eventually come to light." Shen Rong said.
"Okay! Mother will listen to you."
The mother and son warmed themselves by the fire and talked slowly.
From time to time, Mrs. Shen’s joyful laughter could be heard in Fushouyuan.
These things had never happened before Shen Rong came back.
Shen Rong is really good at coaxing, but Shen Lin never knows how to coax his old mother.
Even the servants were sighing in their hearts: Sugar-coated bullets are the most effective, when will the general learn how to do it?
It wasn't until the owner of the rouge shop rushed in that the harmony was broken: "Third Master, something terrible has happened. Miss Bai Zhi has been taken away by the people from the *** Mansion."
"what?"
Old Madam Shen stood up in shock.
The *** family is a relative by marriage, why would they arrest Bai Zhi?
Shen Rong immediately thought of Zhao Qingyao and asked Ajiu: "Where is the Madam?"
"She is embroidering in Qingyun Courtyard. Madam hasn't left the house since she returned home. She also hasn't contacted the *** family." Ajiu said.
Shen Rong sneered.
Who else could it be besides Zhao Qingyao?
He angrily wanted to rush to Qingyun Courtyard, but Old Madam Shen stopped him: "Talk to her nicely, she is not an ordinary person."
"clear."
Shen Rong took a deep breath and hurried back to Qingyun Courtyard.
Zhao Qingyao was embroidering in the warm room, and the servants who came with her as a dowry were waiting in an orderly manner. Except for the occasional maid who would add tea and water, the rest of the time was quiet.
So quiet and deserted.
There is neither the joy of a newlywed couple nor the passion of young men and women.
"Madam, are you embroidering again today? Please put down the needle and thread and come with me." When Shen Rong entered the warm room, he had regained his gentle and elegant demeanor.
His voice was soft and affectionate, as if he was talking to the woman he loved deeply.
Zhao Qingyao stopped her embroidery needle, looked up and smiled faintly: "Where are you going, my husband?"
"*** Mansion."
"Huh? I didn't receive an invitation from my stepmother." Zhao Qingyao said.
Shen Rong stared into her eyes, wondering if she was pretending to be hurt or if she really didn't know. "Bai Zhi was taken to the *** Mansion. It was said that the county lady used rouge from the shop and got spots on her face."
"How could this be? Bai Zhi also gave me some rouge, which is quite good." Zhao Qingyao picked up the bronze mirror and looked at herself. "The rouge I used today is her rouge."
"So, this may be a misunderstanding. Madam, please accompany me to pick up Bai Zhi." Shen Rong smiled more affectionately, making people feel like spring breeze.
Zhao Qingyao nodded: "In that case, I will go with my husband to take a look. Let me change my clothes."
"it is good."
Shen Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Zhao Qingyao is willing to save people, this matter should have nothing to do with her, right?
If she dares to cause trouble in his house, he will make her pay!
