"Please forgive me, my dear young master! Men are not allowed to enter my aunt's yard without permission. Even my dear young master should avoid suspicion."
"Go away."
The old woman swallowed her saliva in fear, but still stood in front of the door motionlessly, "Master, this is the rule of the mansion, and I am just following orders. I hope you won't embarrass me."
"I'll say it again, get lost."
"Please, Mr. Dalang..."
With a bang, Bai Ze kicked the old woman to the ground before she could finish her words.
Another woman immediately shouted: "Come... someone come!"
As the old woman's voice fell, two men quickly ran out of the yard.
One of the men said, "Please go back, Mr. Dalang."
These two men are Old Master Bai's personal attendants, which means that Old Master Bai is in there now.
"So my father is here."
The attendant repeated expressionlessly, "Please go back, Mr. Dalang."
"What if I must go in?"
The attendant's face became serious, and he clasped his fists and said, "Then I have no choice but to offend you."
Bai Ze glanced sideways at his followers, and the next second, the followers of the father and son started fighting.
Jiang Yueyang opened his mouth subconsciously, [Are you going to fight over a disagreement? Little melon, whose people do you think are more powerful? ]
system:【……】
Bai Ze walked in, and Jiang Yueyang followed closely behind him.
One of Old Master Bai's two followers broke free and rushed over to stop them, and Guyu stepped forward and stood beside Jiang Yueyang.
The follower attacked Guyu without any explanation, and Jiang Yueyang frowned in displeasure.
Guyu used the hilt of the sword to block, but the follower pulled out the dagger from his waist after two moves.
A silver light flashed, and Jiang Yueyang called out in a cold voice: "Guyu."
Guyu's eyes moved, and he changed from resistance to attack, quickly subduing the follower to the ground.
Jiang Yueyang slowly walked to the side of the follower who was stepped on by Guyu, and looked down at him, "I'm just looking around the yard, it will be over soon, I hope you don't stop me."
At this time, another follower of Old Master Bai found an opportunity and rushed over.
Guyu reacted quickly, drew his sword and pointed it at the follower who was rushing towards him.
After Jiang Yueyang finished speaking, she looked around, and following the system's guidance, she walked to a patch of grass and pulled out a blade of grass.
She took the grass and walked back to Bai Ze, "Master Bai, this grass is called 'Ember Star Grass', it has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."
Bai Ze took the grass, pondered for a moment and asked, "Master Xiao Jiang, may I borrow your name?"
Jiang Yueyang didn't know what he was going to do. After a slight hesitation, she nodded.
After getting the consent, Bai Ze shouted to the house in front: "Father, Aunt Tao, Her Royal Highness the Princess has come, please come out to meet her."
Inside, Old Master Bai was pacing back and forth, cursing Bai Ze for being a bastard and a rebellious son!
He didn't want to see Jiang Yueyang and didn't want to be a bystander.
When Aunt Tao learned that Jiang Yueyang was coming, she found an excuse to call Old Master Bai to her yard, hoping to avoid meeting Jiang Yueyang, but she failed to stop him.
At this moment, she was extremely scared, afraid that what she had done would be revealed by Jiang Yueyang's inner voice.
Seeing that no one came out, Bai Ze spoke again: "Father, those two blind guys beside you just attacked Her Royal Highness the Princess. That is extremely disrespectful! Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will punish you?"
Jiang Yueyang glanced at Bai Ze, [Xiaogua, do you think there is a grudge between the father and son? ]
【Depending on the situation, it is somewhat true. 】
At this moment, a man who looked to be in his forties walked out of the house.
The man bowed to Jiang Yueyang and said, "I greet Princess Yongle. I wish your highness good health."
Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows, [Xiaogua, is he also an official appointed by the court? ]
[Yes, he is a seventh-rank editor in the Hanlin Academy.]
Along with the system's voice, Jiang Yueyang gently raised her hand, "No need to be polite."
Bai Ze snorted coldly, "Madam Tao is so arrogant that she didn't even come out to meet the princess when she came."
Hearing this, Old Master Bai cursed Bai Ze inwardly, and then explained: "Tao is not feeling well and cannot come out to meet you. I hope Your Highness the Princess will forgive me."
"Is it inconvenient to come out, or are you afraid?" Bai Ze asked.
Old Master Bai lowered his voice and shouted angrily, "Son of rebellion, stop talking nonsense!"
"Father!" Bai Ze raised the grass in his hand, "The princess just said that the grass in Aunt Tao's yard can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
After these words were spoken, Old Master Bai suddenly stopped.
Bai Ze tightly grasped the "Ember Star Grass" in his hand and gritted his teeth and said, "Father, you should know what your son is talking about, right?"
Old Master Bai turned around and walked into the house, and soon angry shouts were heard from inside.
"Tao, come out here."
Hearing this, Bai Ze turned his head to look at Jiang Yueyang, and twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, "Your Highness Princess must be tired of standing, please come in."
Jiang Yueyang hesitated, "Master Bai, that is your family affair, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for me to be there."
"No problem, Your Highness."
Since the host said so, Jiang Yueyang, who wanted to hear gossip, did not refuse and walked inside.
As soon as she entered, she saw a beautiful woman with a pale face standing in front of Old Master Bai.
Old Master Bai asked sternly, "Tell me, was it you who caused Dalang's wife to have bleeding several times?"
"Master, I am innocent!" Aunt Tao cried out.
Bai Ze slowly led Jiang Yueyang to sit on a stool and poured her a cup of tea.
Jiang Yueyang politely picked it up and took a sip, watching the scene in front of her with interest.
Old Master Bai stared at Aunt Tao coldly, "Unjustly accused? Then how do you explain this blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing herb?"
"I don't know what kind of herb is good for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."
"Don't know?" Bai Ze walked towards the two of them, with a bloodthirsty smile on his face. "My wife has had spotting for no apparent reason several times. You are the only one in the mansion who has herbs that can activate blood circulation and dissolve blood stasis. You say you don't know?"
Aunt Tao knelt on the ground and said, "Master, I really didn't know there was that kind of grass in my yard.
You know, I have never been to Wutong Courtyard since that incident. Even if I wanted to harm someone, I would not have the chance."
Bai Ze sneered, "Just because you haven't been there, you can't harm anyone?"
"Are you trying to pin the blame on me, Mr. Dalang?"
"I'll put the blame on you?" Bai Ze sneered and then turned his face black, "You can just bribe the people in Wutong Courtyard!"
"Master, the servants of Wutong Court are all carefully selected by the eldest master. How can I bribe the eldest master's people?"
After hearing this, Old Master Bai was confused.
The servants in Wutong Courtyard were loyal to his son. Even if he wanted to bribe the servants there with money, he couldn't do it, let alone Tao.
This argument doesn't make sense.
Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but be curious, [Xiaogua, why did that old woman who boiled water help Aunt Tao to harm Madam Bai? ]
