Twenty-Fifth Master Wang, something's gone wrong!
"Miss!"
"Miss!"
The two maidservants came to their senses and quickly went up to lift Bai Xinbi up, one on the left and one on the right. When they saw Bai Xinbi's appearance, the two of them suddenly widened their eyes, were so frightened that their hands trembled, and almost threw Bai Xinbi out again.
At this time, Bai Xinbi didn't know whether she was frightened or stabbed and had fainted, like a muddy shore, being supported by two maids. Her delicate makeup was still there, but her exquisite face was covered with dense small holes, each hole overflowing with red blood droplets, making her plump and smooth forehead and jade-like cheeks suddenly look like they were covered in red freckles.
At this time, the two maidservants suddenly woke up to find that the ground was covered with iron sea pinks. Looking at the dense and sharp thorns of each plant, they looked at their young lady's face again, and both of them involuntarily turned to look at Bai Xinbi's front, with fear and unease filling their eyes.
"Come on in—"
"Come quick! The young lady is injured——"
Not daring to delay for a moment, the two maidservants hastily called out for help and one of them supported Bai Xinbi's arm as they rushed towards the outer courtyard.
Bai Xinbi's miserable appearance and bloodstained shadow were clear as day, and with a sideways glance, she caught sight of a certain woman pretending to be stupid, her cold, hard mouth twitching involuntarily.
She had thought someone would come looking for trouble, so she went to find these iron sea thistles quickly?
But now Miss Bai has been injured...
Turning around, Blood Shadow walked towards the corner with an expressionless face...
This matter still needs to be reported to Master Wang!

Following the imperial court
Qiu Shi and Li Rong, a concubine of Cheng Wang Fu, strolled in the garden.
"Madam, I have something to report to you..." Along the way, Liren looked worried and anxious, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, so she spoke up.
Qiu Shi saw Li Rong's hesitant expression, raised his hand to wave away the maid who was following behind, and looked at her with some displeasure: "If you have something to say, just say it, what are you doing being so evasive?"
Ling Rong pursed her lips, her slender eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her beautiful eyes filled with worry. She replied to Old Lady Qiu in a low voice: "This is something I also just heard about this morning. Didn't the Emperor decree that the eldest daughter of the White family would be married to Prince Wang as his consort? But what I heard was that Prince Wang wants to marry not the eldest daughter, but a deaf and mute girl who was abandoned by the White family."
"What?!" Qiu's eyes suddenly widened.
"Old Madam, I heard the news and couldn't believe it, so I sent someone to investigate at the White Estate. The scout brought back the same information: there is a mute and deaf girl who has been living outside, and supposedly, the Prince will marry her next month...and that mute and deaf girl was already brought back to the White Estate yesterday...Old Madam, you must advise the Prince! With his noble status and the Emperor's favor, how can he marry a disabled person to be the Princess of Cheng Wang Fu? Isn't this humiliating our Cheng Wang Fu's reputation? I don't dare interfere with the Prince's decisions, but watching him bring back a disabled woman to be ridiculed by the people of the capital is unbearable for me, so I reported it to you, Old Madam."
Upon hearing this, Qiu's eyebrows furrowed and her face darkened. "Something like that actually happened?"
How is this possible? The imperial edict was issued by His Majesty himself, it can't be fake. Could it be that His Majesty has agreed to let the Crown Prince marry a deaf and mute girl?
That's even more impossible!
Even if the Emperor lets the Crown Prince marry a notorious woman as his Crown Princess, he will never let me marry a notorious woman as my Queen!
What's going on? How could you hide such a big thing from her...
She only knew that the White Mansion had a legitimate daughter, and there was only one, so after the imperial edict came down, she didn't bother with all that anymore. Anyway, her goal was to help her son win over the various factions in the court, the White Mansion counted as one, and there were also the General's Mansion, the Minister's Mansion...
As long as more and more people support Yu Er, his power will become stronger and stronger, and he can surpass the Crown Prince...
Once the Crown Prince is dealt with, I'll find another opportunity to announce my son's true identity to the world. After that, it will be easy for him to become the Crown Prince, and naturally, the throne will be his in the future. This way, her status will also...
Looking at Mrs. Qiu's introspective expression, Lirong was even more puzzled and couldn't help but urge: "Old lady, you have to think of a way to persuade the prince!"
Qiu's thoughts returned, and he frowned at her: "What is there to persuade?"
Lui Rong was stunned, and even more puzzled: "Old Madam, the person that Wang Ye is going to marry is a disabled person. If so, wouldn't it be a humiliation to Wang Ye and the reputation of Cheng Wang Fu?"
Qiu Shi looked away with disdain and said coldly, "Yu'er is deeply favored by the Emperor, what are you afraid of?" With the Emperor's protection, who dares to be disrespectful to the Cheng Wang Fu?
"Old lady, you......" Lirong was stunned. What's going on? Why isn't the old lady worried at all?
"This matter is decided by the Emperor, I naturally cannot interfere. Do you want me to disobey the imperial edict and confront the Emperor to point out his mistakes?" Qiu Shi gave Li Rong a cold stare, let out a cold snort, and then walked forward.
Not daring to disobey the imperial decree is one aspect, on the other hand, she also figured it out, what she wants is the power of the bride's family, as for marrying a deaf person or a mute, she thinks it's not important at all. Lately, Yu'er's attitude towards her has left her somewhat bewildered, this feeling makes her feel very uneasy in her heart. Since Yu'er doesn't even mind that the other party is disabled, why should she go out of her way to seek Yu'er's dislike at this time?
What is deaf-mute girl?
This is better and more under her control...

In the study
A man in brocade clothes stood by the desk, his deep eyes following the brush in his hand as it wandered on the rice paper, his gaze focused and gentle. Under his brush was the outline of a woman...
"Father! Something's wrong—" Suddenly, the study door was pushed open and Yin Du rushed in hastily.
He quickly covered the Xuan paper with a square piece of silk, lifted his head and stared coldly: "What's the matter?"
Yin Du was a bit out of breath, facing the displeased gaze in front of him, and said nervously: "Master, it's not good! The people monitoring the White Manor have come to report that Old Lady White has ordered the house slaves to surround the courtyard where the Princess is living, and Xue Ying has already started fighting with them!"
Digression
Sisters, happy holidays!
