In the *** Mansion, Bai Zhi was forced to kneel on the snow, her knees aching from the cold.

*** was still wearing a gorgeous red palace dress, sitting on a high seat and looking down on everyone.

Princess Jiahe was sleeping soundly beside her. Her face was covered with red rashes due to allergies. There was fluid in the rashes, making them look translucent.

There was a dried blood stain on the corner of her lips where she had scratched them, which was shocking to see.

The once doll-like beauty turned into this in just half a day. Who could stand it?

Even though Princess Jiahe was crazy now, she was still the emperor's beloved granddaughter. Whenever she entered the palace, the emperor liked her very much, and she also brought some glory to the emperor.

How can I enter the palace to see the emperor with such a disfigured face?

"Your Highness, there is really nothing wrong with my rouge. I don't know what went wrong to make the county lady's face look like this..."

Bai Zhi defended herself for the Nth time, but her tone became weaker each time.

As a modern time traveler, she knew the importance of Chen Tang's testimony. Therefore, she said the same thing every time.

But no matter what she said, *** didn't believe it. I'm afraid she will be severely punished next.

There were so many criminal laws in ancient times that it’s scary to think about them.

She had no idea how long she could hold on.

"You mean, I put poison in my rouge to frame you?" *** sneered, looking at Bai Zhi as if she were an ant, "Do you think you are worthy of me playing tricks on you?"

"***, that's not what I meant. I think there must be a misunderstanding. Please *** check it out!" Bai Zhi requested humbly.

My heart was completely shrouded in fear.

In this dynasty where imperial power is supreme and all beings are unequal, it would be easy for the traitor to kill her.

But *** didn’t!

So what happened today was to deliberately torture her and warn her not to disregard Zhao Qingyao!

Or maybe he wanted her to give up the power of the family and leave the Third Young Master...

"***, we have experienced it. These rouges are mixed with windproof, which can cause skin allergies." The two imperial doctors came to the conclusion after examination.

Bai Zhi was stunned: "There is no windproof in my rouge!"

"Could it be that the imperial physician in the palace was also bribed by me to frame you? Who do you think you are!" *** sneered, "I think you are too favored in the general's mansion and you think you are a piece of cake."

"Damn it, I dare not. I am helping to manage the household because the old lady is ill. I will not dare to overstep my bounds until the old lady is well again." Bai Zhi argued.

*** snorted coldly and raised his hand to signal.

Several people brought a torture rack, and it turned out that the fingers were connected to the heart!

Baizhi was frightened and hid her hands in her sleeves.

Her delicate hands are used to make rouge and use an abacus!

Why did Ye Qinghuan ask someone to rescue her? She was her cousin!

"Punch her! See if she confesses!"

"Yes!"

Several people held down Bai Zhi and put the rack on her hand. Every time they pulled it, she felt excruciating pain.

"Ahhh-"

Bai Zhi screamed.

"Do you want to recruit?" *** asked.

Bai Zhi insisted: "It's not me, it's really not me..."

"Pull again!"

"Ahhh-"

Bai Zhi screamed in agony, tears and cold sweat pouring out.

The pain was so extreme that she had never experienced before, and it made her tremble like a sieve.

But I can’t admit it!

If she didn't admit to something she hadn't done, there was still a glimmer of hope. But if she admitted to it, it would be a dead end!

But it really hurts! It hurts so much that she wants to die!

"stop!"

Shen Rong and Zhao Qingyao arrived late.

*** raised his hand, and the executioner let go.

Bai Zhi knelt on the ground with a hunched back, gasping for breath, her nose tip almost touching the cold snow.

Woohoo, the Third Young Master finally came to save her.

She knew that he would come to rescue her!

"Mother!" Zhao Qingyao stepped forward and saluted.

*** smiled at her: "Why is Ling'er here too? How could such a small matter alarm you?"

"Mother, my husband and I came here together." Zhao Qingyao said.

Shen Rong frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed his brows and moved forward in his wheelchair: "Rong pays respects to mother!"

"Okay." *** pointed to the yard, "You came here for her, right?"

"No."

Shen Rong shook his head gently, his gentle appearance betraying no real emotion.

Since entering the mansion, he has never looked at Bai Zhi.

*** raised an eyebrow: "Oh!"

"I heard that the county lady was injured, and Rong was worried, so I brought Ling'er to visit her." Shen Rong said.

"Wan'er's face is like this, what do you think we should do?" *** pointed at Wan'er who was still sleeping beside her.

Shen Rong said, "Mother, I invested in Baiji Rouge Shop, and all the money earned belongs to me. Rong Ding will be responsible for today's matter to the end."

"Oh, how can you be responsible?"

"Anytime my mother punishes me!"

The smile on ***'s face gradually turned colder, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife: "Punish you?"

"Yes."

Shen Rong supported his body with his hands, fell off the wheelchair, and then knelt down with great effort.

The whole process was not smooth, and it was quite sad to watch.

Bai Zhi on the snow felt so distressed.

The hall fell silent until Zhao Qingyao said, "Mother, my husband also wants to make money. Please be magnanimous and let it go!"

"Okay, for Ling'er's sake, let's forget about it." The queen waved her hand, and two guards threw Bai Zhi out of the house. "It's rare for you two to come, so stay and have dinner with me!"

"Yes."

Shen Rong nodded without looking back at Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi, who was thrown out of the mansion, looked back at the towering *** mansion with great resentment, shaking her bloody hands.

For the first time, I had an immense desire for power!

If she had enough power, the Third Young Master wouldn't have to compromise.

If she stood high enough, how could *** and Zhao Qingyao dare to humiliate her?

Right!

A carriage stopped and the person in the carriage raised the curtain. It turned out to be Ye Qinghuan: "Are you not leaving yet?"

"You, are here too?" Bai Zhi was very surprised.

"If I don't help you, can Shen Rong come?" Ye Qinghuan chuckled.

The grandmother from another world had great magical powers and helped the Bai family build a tall building from scratch. But the one in front of him was very stupid.

I guess not all geniuses from other worlds are worthy of being her enemies!

Bai Zhi bit her lip and got on the carriage.

The car was warm as spring, which quickly relieved her coldness. However, her injured hand hurt even more.

But in front of Ye Qinghuan, she didn't want to show weakness and endured it.

Chunyu took out the ointment that she had prepared long ago: "Miss Baizhi, I will apply the ointment for you."

"Why are you doing this?" Bai Zhi looked at Ye Qinghuan.

When she was Shen Lin's concubine, Ye Qinghuan didn't even look at her. Now that he is willing to help her, does that mean he is willing to acknowledge that she is the daughter of the Bai family?

"For my third brother's sake." Ye Qinghuan said lazily, holding the hand warmer.

Bai Zhi didn't believe it: "Just like that?"

"What else? Mother loves my third brother, and my third brother loves you. It's just a piece of cake for me, your sister-in-law, to help you. You don't have to thank me." Ye Qinghuan said.

Bai Zhi was disappointed and lowered her eyes and said, "I am really Miss Bai..."

"I don't believe it." Ye Qinghuan shook his head, "There's no one like you in the Bai family's business. There's no one like you in the entire Daxia."
