General Bai is a man who is respected by everyone in the court.
Even Lu Yuhang, a leading military commander of the new generation, regards him as his lifelong idol.
So, seeing General Bai coming over, he unconsciously changed the position of the red tassel spear and pressed it against General Bai's back.
Of course, he had enough confidence in his martial arts and was not worried about what General Bai might do by taking the opportunity.
"Father!" General Bai covered his red and swollen face and said with a look of grievance, "I didn't mean to do that either. It's really, really, they are going too far, aren't they?"
As he spoke, he looked at the prince with resentment.
"What do you mean by going too far? What did His Royal Highness do to make you so stupid?"
General Bai was a warrior, not very eloquent. He was anxious and said nothing. He just pulled off the veil on Bai Bingjing's face and said, "Father, look!"
At this moment, Bai Bingjing no longer cared about her ugly appearance and shame, and she joined in with grievance, "Grandpa, look at how they beat me?"
Her cheeks were swollen and red, and her two missing front teeth let out air as she spoke, making her look exactly like an old lady with missing teeth, which inexplicably gave people a sense of humor.
"Was it the prince who beat him?" asked General Bai.
"No, it was Li Shushu who beat me. Woohoo! She beat me so hard that my teeth were knocked out. It hurts so much! Woohoo!"
"Prince?" General Bai heard this. Li Shushu was unconscious at that time, so he couldn't ask anything.
She just looked at the prince with a questioning look. The secret guard had naturally reported the matter to the prince, but he felt that the woman deserved it and did not intend to explain any more. He looked at Lian'er pretending to be ignorant.
Lian'er, who knew the situation, understood and stepped forward, "Your Highness, I was helping the Crown Princess walk in the Imperial Garden yesterday, and it was Miss Bai who bumped into her first.
She first blocked our way, then spoke rudely, slandered the prince, and cursed the royal heir. The Crown Princess was so angry that she ordered someone to slap her in the face!
Woo woo!
"She was saying that yesterday she cursed the young master, and today the young master is gone. Maybe it was her, or they who did it! Woo woo!" Lian'er narrated the story with great emotion, pointing her finger at Bai Bingjing, then at the Imperial Noble Consort, but finally felt that she was too insignificant to make any move.
He could only rub his eyes vigorously, tears streaming down his face, truly sad for his master.
“So that’s the case?!
Isn't this what you deserve? You fought well! What's wrong with you? "General Bai probably understood the reason and turned around to scold his granddaughter again. This girl must have been spoiled by them. It's really the fault of the father if the son is not taught well...
"Grandpa!..." Bai Bingjing wanted to argue again.
General Bai reacted, "Jing'er, is what she said true? That's not what you told me when you came back yesterday!"
What did you say? You said the Crown Princess beat you for no reason, and you complained to the Crown Prince, but not only did he not seek justice for you, he even had you slapped dozens more times. Then you went to the Emperor, but he ignored you too?"
"Did you say that yesterday?" Seeing Bai Bingjing take two steps back guiltily, General Bai knew that he had been deceived by his own daughter and immediately became furious.
"Idiot!" General Bai was furious and cursed again.
"Such outrageous words, and you didn't even bother to find someone to verify them first, and you let this wicked little girl, a liar, instigate and exploit you! Even if it's true as she said, is it worth it for you to do such a perverse thing? Stupid, really stupid!"
At this time, General Bai finally realized his impulsiveness.
He was so angry that he raised his broad and powerful palm high up and slapped Bai Bingjing's face again and again, "Evil creature, evil creature, you even dared to lie to your father, this is really against heaven.
This time, the entire Bai family has been badly harmed by you, do you know that?"
The strength of a military general's palms is naturally incomparable to that of a young eunuch.
In an instant, Bai Bingjing's mouth was filled with blood again. When she spat it out, she found that several more teeth were spat out with it...
General Bai finished venting his anger and didn't care about anything else. He immediately knelt on his knees and admitted his fault, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, I am wrong. Please punish me. I deserve death. It's just that I was bewitched by my daughter and made a mistake. Fortunately, I came to my senses in time. Please forgive the Bai family!"
The emperor said nothing, but just looked at the prince with a cold face.
Xia Muyan didn't rush to speak, but just hugged Li Shushu's arm tightly, thinking...
Seeing that the people in higher positions have not expressed their views, it means that their sincerity is not yet there.
General Bai was the quickest to react. He felt around on his son's body and pulled out a military token. He knelt on his knees, raised it above his head, and said, "The Bai family is guilty. We feel guilty for the late emperor and the emperor's instructions. We feel sorry for our ancestors. We are now voluntarily handing over the military token. Please, His Majesty, send someone wise to take charge!"
"Old General!" The emperor was moved and hurried over to help the old general up. "There's no need for this, old General."
General Bai refused to give up and insisted on handing the military order to the emperor. The emperor took the order and handed it to Xia Muyan next to him without even looking at it, then he pulled the old general up with all his strength.
The Imperial Concubine and Xia Muyu watched all this happen, and their hearts grew colder little by little.
They took two steps back, their bodies going limp. It was over, it was completely over!
General Bai defected in the middle of the battle, losing his military command. Even General Lu, who was stationed at the border, led his troops back to the capital. Their small force was no match for their sheer power...
