The prime minister picked up the chopsticks on the table and said, "Let's eat."
Bai Zhu couldn't help but be surprised. The Prime Minister summoned her over early in the morning. Did he really just want to have breakfast with her?
"Master..." Bai Zhu felt uneasy.
The prime minister ignored Bai Zhu and started eating.
Bai Zhu couldn't stand the Prime Minister calling her over without saying a word, which made her feel inexplicably nervous and uneasy.
But the prime minister said nothing, so she could only endure and eat.
After finishing his tormenting breakfast, the Prime Minister finally asked, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
The Prime Minister had never observed her much, but now he found that she had not rested well?
"Shaojun is still kneeling in the ancestral hall...Qingyuan's issue has not been resolved, how can this concubine sleep well!"
This sounds like there's nothing wrong with it.
But the prime minister slammed the chopsticks on the table, making a crisp sound.
Bai Zhu was so frightened that her face turned pale instantly. She called out softly, "Master?"
She always felt that the Prime Minister asked her to come for more than just a simple meal, and the matter was definitely not related to Yang Shaojun and Yang Qingyuan.
After all, I made it clear yesterday!
So the reason why she was asked to come today was most likely due to another matter.
"Kneel down!" The prime minister said coldly without looking at Bai Zhu.
Bai Zhu was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down on the ground uneasily, his speculation becoming more and more intense.
"I have already warned you, the second branch. Why don't you restrain yourself?" This question made Bai Zhu's already pale face turn even paler in an instant.
She waited until midnight yesterday, but still no message came from the person she sent out.
Therefore, Baizhu was already very anxious and had trouble falling asleep at night.
Bai Zhu was called to have breakfast by the Prime Minister so early, which was unusual. She vaguely realized that something had happened!
But last night was very quiet, so quiet that it seemed as if nothing was happening in the prime minister's mansion.
But the quieter it was, the more terrifying Bai Zhu felt.
She knelt on the ground, her body trembling slightly because of fear: "Master, please speak frankly..."
Otherwise, if she was scared like this, she would feel more stressed and could not bear it.
"What have you done? Why don't you want to tell the truth?" The prime minister slammed the table angrily, causing the food on the table to fall over.
"Because we have been married for so many years, I have always turned a blind eye to everything you do..."
"But I didn't expect you to turn a blind eye to my warning. You don't take me seriously, do you?"
Bai Zhu was already feeling uneasy, and now that the prime minister said this, she felt even more uneasy. Could it be that she was caught red-handed for what she did yesterday, and the prime minister wanted to hold her accountable?
Bai Zhu kowtowed to the ground: "I was wrong, I know I was wrong... Master, I just can't swallow that breath!"
"Qing Yuan and Shao Jun are so innocent. If she wants to deal with someone, she should deal with me alone. How can she target two children?"
The Prime Minister snorted coldly: "Your child is a child, but Xin Wan is not a child?"
"The Fourth Prince thinks highly of Xin Wan. Even though he no longer protects Xin Wan, he has arranged guards for Xin Wan!"
"So, those thieves you sent out not only failed to kill anyone, but were also caught. The person was thrown into the real person's room last night!"
Therefore, the people who were protecting Yang Xinwan did not kill the assassin directly after discovering him, but threw him into the prime minister's room.
The Prime Minister has endured until now before he exploded...
Bai Zhu was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and cold sweat began to seep out of his forehead.
"You have made mistakes time and again. How can I keep you like this?"
This question surprised Bai Zhu instantly.
She hurriedly grabbed the prime minister's clothes and said, "Master, what do you mean by this? Are you going to drive me away?"
"But where can I go if I leave the Prime Minister's Mansion? Master... I really know I was wrong!"
But the Prime Minister pulled his robe away with all his strength: "I have given you too many chances, but you just don't repent!"
"Even though I forgive you this time, I cannot guarantee that you will make the same mistake next time! So, now I am giving you two choices!"
Bai Zhu kept shaking her head: "Master, Master, I gave birth to your only son, and I have worked hard for the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years!"
"Even if I don't repent, I haven't caused any disaster! Please give me one last chance, Master!"
"I absolutely dare not have any more thoughts...I really know I was wrong!"
But no matter how Bai Zhu begged, the prime minister still had a sullen face: "Either I will find a reason for you to keep your dignity and become a nun, or I will divorce you directly!"
Bai Zhu's cries and begging for mercy stopped instantly, and she looked at the prime minister in a daze.
Become a nun? Divorced?
Is there any difference between these two options?
They all wanted to drive her away and make her leave the glory and wealth of the prime minister's mansion!
"Master!" Bai Zhu's voice became heavier, showing obvious dissatisfaction.
But the Prime Minister had an indifferent expression: "Think about it carefully!"
After saying this, the Prime Minister stood up and walked out.
But Bai Zhu was not willing to accept this result. She quickly climbed forward and tried to pull the prime minister's robe, but the prime minister pulled the robe back in disgust.
"I asked you to go to a nunnery because I wanted to preserve your dignity. But if you don't want to, I will divorce you..."
After that, the prime minister walked out without looking back.
Bai Zhu hurriedly got up, but because his legs were a little weak, he fell down again heavily, looking very embarrassed.
"Master..." Bai Zhu was still calling out desperately. She didn't believe that the Prime Minister was so heartless.
Although she was a concubine, she was treated like the mistress of the house in the prime minister's residence.
The Prime Minister must be special to her! So the Prime Minister must have made this decision in a fit of anger. As long as he sees how pitiful she is, he will definitely change his mind!
But the prime minister's figure quickly disappeared!
Yesterday, after Xue Zixiao finished painting the portrait, Yun Zhiyuan fell into deep thought.
He once had a subordinate who was very successful, but he was never seen alive or dead...
If Yun Xuanting had returned to the capital early, would it be possible that Yun Xuanting had killed that person?
Xue Zixiao painted the person's appearance in the portrait so accurately, he must have seen Yun Xuanting's true appearance.
So, Xue Zixiao didn’t lie?
After collecting his thoughts, Yun Zhiyuan asked, "The evidence you gave unilaterally cannot be used as a condition for this prince to believe you, so does General Xue have other evidence to prove that you are not lying?"
Xue Zixiao immediately replied, "Prince, you can send someone to take this portrait to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inquire. The Fourth Prince was a guard in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there are many people who know him!"
As long as the servants in the prime minister's residence identify the person in the portrait as the prime minister's guard, there will be no suspense in the matter.
