The moment she saw Bai Tingzhi coming over, she was a little confused, mainly because Mrs. Bai happened to see someone coming into the palace just now, so she thought that Bai Tingzhi should have entered the palace by now, but she didn't expect him to still be here.
Mrs. Bai asked immediately when she saw him coming to her side.
"My dear husband, why are you here? Didn't the emperor ask you to come into the palace for something?"
The reason why Bai Tingzhi came here was that he wanted to tell Xiao Mingzhu about the envoys entering the palace and see if she had anything else to tell him.
When he heard Mrs. Bai ask this, he immediately spoke with a smile.
"Madam, the Emperor said that the envoys have entered the palace. Remember to make preparations. You should also enter the palace tomorrow."
Mrs. Bai and Bai Tingzhi looked at each other, and Mrs. Bai immediately asked in pretended surprise.
"So soon, didn't they say it would take a while? How come they're here so suddenly? It seems a bit strange."
As soon as Mrs. Bai finished speaking, the little Mingzhu in her arms immediately grabbed her hand and kept babbling, wanting to say something but unable to speak it out.
[Mother, mother, these envoys are fake, don't believe them! They are here specifically to assassinate the emperor!]
At that time, they will hide among the dancers, so that they can get close to the emperor, and it will be easy to attack him if they want to.
After hearing what Xiao Mingzhu said, Bai Tingzhi spoke immediately.
"Madam, these envoys are fake. I have asked someone to investigate and the real envoys are still on the way. I don't know where these people came from. I am ready and will enter the palace now to report the situation to the emperor. However, tomorrow, you still have to enter the palace as planned.
But don't worry, Madam! The boss will come over later in disguise and follow you, so that I can feel more at ease."
Little Mingzhu suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen her brothers for several days and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
So when she heard Bai Tingzhi talking about her brothers, she suddenly became anxious and waved her little hands, trying to get Bai Tingzhi's attention.
Bai Tingzhi had been observing her, so he noticed her little movement immediately.
[Daddy, Daddy, where are the brothers? Guaiguai hasn't seen them for several days. Is something wrong with them? They haven't come back to see Guaiguai. Do they dislike Guaiguai anymore?]
Bai Tingzhi looked at the little Mingzhu with a wrinkled face in Mrs. Bai's arms, and couldn't help but reach out and pick her up from Mrs. Bai's arms.
"What happened in our house just now? Why did my brothers sound so excited? Are they missing them?
Your brothers have been busy lately, and Daddy has arranged for them to practice, so they don't have much time. You'll be able to see them tomorrow."
Little Mingzhu was a little excited. She had a frown on her face just now, but now she smiled.
"Madam, hold me dearly. Your husband has to go to the palace. There are still many things to deal with. If you go too late, it will be too late."
Little Mingzhu actually wanted to go with them, but she felt that it was impossible. After all, her father would definitely be very busy now. She decided to wait until this matter was over before asking her mother to take her into the palace to play with the queen and the beauties.
I just don’t know if my mother will understand what she means by then.
Little Mingzhu was very worried for a moment, and she hoped that her mother would be able to understand what she was doing.
Little Mingzhu couldn't understand why she still couldn't speak!
If she could speak now, she could talk to her mother and tell her many things.
What little Mingzhu wants most now is to be able to speak, but she also knows that she is still too young to speak yet, so there is nothing she can do about it.
It's not like she can speak whenever she wants, now she can only wait.
At this time, Bai Tingzhi also came to the palace. He came to the door of the imperial study, where the emperor and the prince were discussing the envoy's affairs.
"Your Majesty, General Bai is outside requesting an audience."
When they heard that Bai Tingzhi was coming at this time, they were all a little surprised.
However, the emperor also knew that Bai Tingzhi came here at this time, and it must be because of something. The emperor looked at the prince in front of him with an ugly expression on his face, and spoke slowly.
"I've already said this before. It was your mother's fault. I didn't do anything to her, and that was good enough. I just put her in solitary confinement.
I have already told the Queen that as long as she is willing to admit her mistake and apologize to Concubine Rou, I will not bother with her about this matter. After all, there is nothing wrong with the child in Concubine Rou's belly, and the Queen is the mother of a country, so I will not do anything excessive. However, even after I said this, the Queen still refused to agree, so it is not my fault. "
Seeing the emperor like this, the prince knew that there was no way to solve his mother's problem for the time being, so he didn't say anything.
The emperor had already summoned Bai Tingzhi. As soon as he came in and saw the prince inside, Bai Tingzhi immediately saluted the prince.
He only got up when the prince asked him to.
The emperor was really surprised by his arrival, so he couldn't help but ask.
"General Bai, you come to the palace every now and then. Is there something important?"
When Bai Tingzhi heard the emperor ask this, he immediately nodded.
"Your Majesty, after my investigation, I found that the envoys are still on their way and have not yet arrived in our court. Therefore, the envoys now are all fake, and their purpose is to assassinate Your Majesty."
When the emperor heard this, he was shocked and stood up with disbelief in his eyes.
"General Bai, is what you said true? Is there solid evidence?"
Although he heard it from Xiao Mingzhu, Bai Tingzhi also asked someone to investigate and found out that the real envoys were still on their way and had not arrived yet.
"Your Majesty, this is true. I have asked someone to inquire about it, and the envoy will arrive in three days, which is the same time as we originally planned.
Now these fake envoys outside the palace have arrived three days early, which is very abnormal at first glance."
After Bai Tingzhi's explanation and analysis, the emperor finally believed it.
"Who are these people? Do I have a deep blood feud with them? They even disguised themselves as envoys and planned to enter the palace to assassinate me."
