Chapter 47 - confrontation
In the end, Bai Chu still knew what happened that day from Xiao Ba’s lively discussion.
The man whom the Princess Roujia brought to frame Bai Yinhua was the grandson of a merchant in the capital. Although the family was rich and noble, the only thing that could be seen by the children of these officials was a pair of skins. .
It is said that he was born very handsome, graceful and jade-like, with a long robe and a folding fan, and no one can’t help but praise him for being romantic and unrestrained, as if he has the nickname of Jade-faced Langjun.
It can be seen that the princess of Roujia has also used some means. If it is really broken, some people do not believe that Bai Yinhua will be willing to fall in love with such a man, but look at his appearance. He is sixteen or seventeen years old and has a troubled marriage The girl was bewitched by his gentleness and handsomeness, which seemed to make sense.
It’s a pity that the plot was interrupted by Zhou Baixuan in one fell swoop.
When Princess Roujia saw Bai Yinhua walk into the restaurant, and planned to leave first in order to avoid suspicion, he bumped into Zhou Baixuan at the door.
At this time, the incense she lit in the room hadn’t really worked, so Bai Yinhua at most had a face-to-face with the person she arranged.
Not knowing what was going on in the room, the Princess Roujia dared to delay Zhou Boxuan, but he didn’t expect to be called out by him on the spot, so he could only follow him upstairs in despair.
Unexpectedly, after delaying for so long, Bai Yinhua had already made a decisive decision and ordered Yeying to throw out the man who seemed to be setting a trap for her.
When Zhou Baixuan opened the door, the man was no longer there, but Nightingale didn’t have time to hide his whereabouts.
What kind of character Zhou Boxuan was, he could guess the origin of Nightingale at a glance, and his stern gaze locked on her tightly. Nightingale was locked in motion by this futile chill, and froze stiffly in place, conditioned reflex to raise her guard. , the murderous aura on his body can’t be hidden.
Bai Yinhua naturally noticed the difference, and she couldn’t help but regret it. She didn’t intend to reveal Nightingale in front of others, but this time it was revealed by accident.
She suppressed the unease in her heart, with a smile on her face, she said softly, “Brother Zhou, I…”
Zhou Boxuan looked at her lightly: “Is this yours?”
Bai Yinhua’s smile froze: “Yes, it’s the orphan girl I rescued by accident. Seeing her young and poor background, she stayed by my side to serve her.”
Her smile gradually became more natural: “I didn’t expect that although this child has been a wanderer since childhood and didn’t know his background, he has worshipped a few martial arts warriors and has some martial arts skills, so I let her follow her closely to protect my safety.”
Under Zhou Baixuan’s gaze, her voice gradually became unstable, but fortunately he did not intend to investigate further, and pushed the Princess Roujia who was outside the door sideways, and then closed the door.
“Apologize.”
“Big brother?” Princess Roujia looked over in disbelief, her face flushed red, and she said in a hurry, “Why!”
Zhou Baixuan glanced at her calmly: “Will you go?”
The anger in Princess Roujia’s mind was extinguished in an instant, and it was replaced by a biting chill. She couldn’t help but back away a few words. She originally planned to apologize, but when she turned around, she saw that Bai Yinhua’s eyes had not disappeared. I couldn’t bear the smirk that went away: “Big Brother Bai Yinhua framed me first! I’m just tit-for-tat, if you want to apologize, she should apologize to me first!”
“Roujia,” Zhou Boxuan said coldly, looking down at her, “I won’t say it a third time.”
The Princess Roujia’s face turned from red to white, her eyes were red with anger, the hand hanging down beside her was clenched into a fist, and her nails were embedded in the palm of her hand.
“Yes, I’m sorry.” She lowered her head deeply, and the expression on her face almost turned hideous.
Bai Yinhua’s heart was happy, and in front of her, the arrogant and arrogant Princess Roujia actually bowed her head to her one day.
There was a hint of bewilderment on her face, and she said gently: “The princess doesn’t have to do this… As long as your misunderstanding about me is cleared up.”
Her beautiful eyes were full of soft light, as if asking for help, she subconsciously looked at Zhou Baixuan, and naturally showed a bit of dependence.
Zhou Baixuan didn’t realize it, his cold profile was exquisite and handsome.
“Now, let’s talk about Rou Jia’s poisoning on the night of the birthday banquet.”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two girls changed, Gu couldn’t believe it, but the Princess Roujia was purely surprised, and Bai Yinhua was frightened.
Zhou Baixuan’s eyes swept across the two’s faces lightly: “You two, who will start first?”
…
[He really caught Bai Yinhua and Princess Roujia together and made them face each other? 】Bai Chu screamed in surprise, the regret of not being able to watch the play was even greater.
[Yeah,] Xiaoba said with fear: [He is so scary, when I stared at the heroine, I almost thought I was discovered by an ordinary human. 】
Scared to death, showing traces in front of non-host humans is a big sin, and will be destroyed by returning to the factory!
【Oh? 】 Bai Chu asked excitedly: 【Why does he stare at Bai Yinhua? 】
Xiao Ba hesitated for a while before muttering in a low voice: [I…I forgot. He was so scary, and Tong would be scared too. 】 In order to defend himself, he tried his best to describe Zhou Boxuan’s terribleness to her.
He obviously didn’t have a handle on it, so he took advantage of the doubts and polished it into a three-point true, seven-point false, and forcefully forced the smart and unparalleled heroine in the original book to reveal the stuff. Fortunately, he was restrained from the precipice and did not give King An. To confess, it just revealed that she had known in advance that someone had poisoned the banquet.
But Bai Chu thought, even if Bai Yinhua didn’t say anything, just looking at the maid who knew martial arts beside her, Zhou Boxuan could at least find out that there was someone capable of protecting Bai Yinhua.
As for whether you can find out who it is, it depends on how bright the halo on the male protagonist’s head is.
【What is the final result? Zhou Boxuan overturned the case for Princess Roujia? 】
Xiao Ba didn’t want to recall the somewhat terrifying human being, and said in a general way: [No, the heroine refuses to admit it, so she can only let it go. 】
Is it just that?
Bai Chu pouted a little boringly.
Doubt is just suspicion, and there can be no conviction without evidence.
Anyway, it wasn’t Bai Yinhua who changed the medicine given by Princess Roujia. She refused to admit that she was the victim. Is there such absurd reason as forcing the victim to confess guilt?
Bai Yinhua always has the ability to take her own logic as the truth. When she looked at Zhou Baixuan with tears in her eyes and full of grievances, even the Princess Roujia, who was confused by hatred, couldn’t help but wonder if she was Not really misunderstood her.
Some hesitant, she looked at Bai Yinhua’s weak and tender eyes towards her eldest brother, and then she became firm again. It doesn’t matter if Bai Yinhua did it or not, it’s not wrong that she is her own enemy anyway. Don’t let the big brother turn to her.
So, before Zhou Baixuan said anything, the Princess Roujia raised her sleeves and stepped forward to quarrel with Bai Yinhua. She is unreasonable and arrogant, and Bai Yinhua has no enthusiastic onlookers who will pity her kindness. Bullying to help her speak, can only helplessly fall behind.
In the end, Zhou Boxuan, whose face was so cold that he had to stop, forced the Princess Roujia to apologize to Bai Yinhua again, and then put down the words directly. If there is another time, he will send her back to Pingyang.
Then she turned and left with the pale face of Princess Roujia, ignoring her staggering footsteps, and she disappeared after leaving the restaurant.
The princess of Roujia was afraid that he would really send her back to Pingyang, so he could not take care of Bai Yinhua, so he hurriedly got on the carriage, planning to go home and let her mother intercede for her. Only if she stays in the capital, she is the superior county lord. If she is sent back to Pingyang alone, everyone knows that she was exiled by her mother and brother, and no one will take her seriously.
Bai Yinhua, who was left in the room, put away her pitiful expression, and looked at the door in a dim manner, until Nightingale beside her asked her softly, “Miss, do you want a servant to teach Princess Roujia a lesson for you?”
Bai Yinhua suddenly came back to his senses, and a dark color flashed across his eyebrows, “Of course I want it.”
“But not now.” She was a little dignified, and she couldn’t let Zhou Boxuan find out about the existence of King An. “Yingying, don’t contact your master recently, so as not to cause suspicion.”
She thought that Zhou Boxuan was happy with her, but when she saw it today, she suddenly became uncertain.
Bai Yinhua’s eyes were deep and thoughtful.
On the other side, Zhou Boxuan came out of the restaurant and was planning to go straight back to the palace, when he suddenly thought of something, turned his footsteps, and came to the largest store in the capital that sells accessories such as women’s hairpins, hairpins, and jade.
“Bring the best in your shop.”
Listening to this, if it weren’t for the fact that he was wearing top-quality accessories, and his appearance was imposing, the shopkeeper almost thought that he was coming from a family robbery.
Shrinking and wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, the shopkeeper hurriedly smiled, “Hey, wait a moment, I’ll get it right away.”
So, just after listening to the play, she was stunned by the unfinished ending. Bai Chu, who was deeply dissatisfied, woke up in the afternoon and received a crimson and jade-encrusted brocade box that was anonymously placed by her window. She opened it and saw, It is a complete set of golden phoenix with beaded head and face, the details are exquisitely outlined everywhere, against the afterglow of the sunset that has not disappeared, the golden jade is brilliant, like a new life, as if she can come alive with a touch.
Rao is Bai Chu, who believes that his heart is still like water, and he can’t help thumping twice when he sees it.
I really want to take it…
Bai Chu’s slender, jade-like fingers swiped one by one reluctantly, then let go of the box and let the box close, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, which was meaningful.
He turned around lightly and walked to the desk to the side, put the pen in ink, wrote a few words, then dried the handwriting, put it into the brocade box after origami, and put the box back to its original position.
Then he closed the window neatly, returned to the couch without hesitation, took out a book, and lay down looking.
After a while, there were a few inaudible noises from the trees in the courtyard outside the window, and a tall and familiar figure quietly appeared in front of her window, frowning silently, looking down at the box that had been put back in its place. .
He raised his hand and unfolded the added note from the inside, only one sentence was written on it:
“No matter how precious and exquisite it is, it’s just an ordinary headgear. In the eyes of Commander Zhou, am I different from other women?”
Zhou Baixuan’s brows furrowed even more deeply, and his deep pool-like black eyes flashed a daze: Is it different?
…
In the hall of time, Shen Yongzhi gently dropped a word on the chessboard that was scattered vertically and horizontally, his face was gentle and indifferent, the smile in his eyes did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and he lightly spread a layer on the surface, covering the rational to indifferent colors underneath. Seriously.
“Master, there are clues to the thieves who moved into the mansion privately several times.”
“Who?”
“The subordinates are incompetent, their martial arts are excellent, and they seem to be well versed in the art of hiding. The specific whereabouts and identities cannot be probed, but they seem to be people in the palace.”
Shen Yongzhi’s eyes moved: “In the palace?”
“Yes, Master, do you want your subordinates to continue to investigate further?”
“No, just stare from a distance, don’t be noticed.”
“Subordinates obey.”
