It has to be said that Bai Qin's mind was completely blank. She let Wen Xiuting fool her for a while, and he calmed her down with just a few words.
Afterwards, Bai Qin returned to the Mu family with Wen Xiuting's mission, but she didn't know that all her actions had been monitored by the Mu family.
After Mu Chan learned that Bai Qin had returned, he couldn't help but chat with his father and brother.
"It seems that this Minister of Rites is really planning to follow Prime Minister Wen wholeheartedly. Such loyalty is rare."
General Mu sneered, still looking angry. This time, he had caused such a big trouble for his second son, and this old man was really the culprit.
"I thought the Bai family was a good family, but I didn't expect to pick out a beast in human form. What's the point of being loyal? This loyalty is not for His Majesty, but for this thief!"
Mu Chan smiled. Ever since the Bai family had such a big mess, he always felt that the position of the Minister of Rites might have to be moved.
So he wrote a letter in the evening, prepared some gifts and took the opportunity to send them to the palace.
After returning to the palace, Yao Guangyue lived a life of idleness. This little life was really wonderful.
And as soon as he came back, people started sending gifts to the palace, always finding various excuses.
[System, look at how charming this princess is! I have so many gifts. That one in the box over there is a gold necklace, made entirely of pure gold!]
[And this one over here, although it's made of coral, it's also very precious, said to be worth a thousand taels!]
Yao Guangyue was so happy that her whole face turned red with excitement.
The system looked at her with disdain. To the system, these things were of no use at all. It really didn't understand why humans liked them so much.
[Host, what use are these things other than looking good? Why do you like them so much?]
[I just like it. I just like it. What can you do? ]
"If you ask me, these things aren't as useful as that blessing bag over there! That one has a special magnetic field."
Yao Guangyue was holding her neck. At this time, she was able to stand up for a while, so she stood in the cradle and looked around for the so-called blessing bag.
Finally, under the guidance of the system, I really saw a small red prayer bag.
[System, what does it mean that there is a special magnetic field on this blessing bag?]
[This system cannot know this, but I can feel that it is different from other things. Perhaps it will affect the plot in the future. Or perhaps it is related to you, the host, so it has a different magnetic field!]
Yao Guangyue was a little anxious. She wanted to see what was inside the blessing bag, so she stretched out her little hands and started to rummage through it.
But she forgot that although she could now hold her cradle, she still couldn't keep her balance and almost fell out of the cradle. Fortunately, Xiyan was quick to catch her.
"Oh my God, Princess!"
Xiyan hurriedly supported her and put her back into the cradle. Only then did she realize that there was no one in the room and she became furious.
"What nonsense! Where are the people guarding the princess? Where have you all gone?"
A group of people carrying large and small bags of gifts just walked in and saw Xiyan throwing a tantrum.
Xiyan was the senior maidservant beside the imperial concubine, and since she was brought from the imperial concubine's family, her status was naturally high. A group of younger maids rushed over in fear and knelt on the ground.
"Sister Xiyan, we were negligent. The Queen just told us to bring in all the gifts for the little princess, so we went out."
Xiyan frowned slightly. What was the Empress planning to do? They had just returned to the palace. Couldn't they be left alone for a bit?
"What did the Queen ask you to bring?"
The young palace maids opened the box and found only some ordinary blessing ribbons.
[Host, be careful! Don't touch these ribbons! Don't put them in your mouth out of curiosity. They're soaked in poison!]
Yao Guangyue felt stunned for a moment. How come someone came to assassinate her just after she returned to the palace?
At this time, the imperial concubine and the emperor were about to come in. As soon as they entered the door, they suddenly heard their daughter wailing.
[What the hell, the ribbon is poisonous! Are you trying to kill me? I'm ravenous right now and can't control myself. I want to put everything I see into my mouth. If I grab a handful of this, I'll be dead!]
[Host, don't worry. This poison is only a trace amount and will only cause some damage to your body. It won't kill you immediately.]
When the emperor heard that something poisonous was sent to his princess, he immediately widened his eyes!
"Nonsense! Where did all these colorful things come from? How can a baby's room hold so many things?"
Although this sounds a bit strange, it seems normal to put things for blessing in a child's room, but since the emperor is not happy about it, then so be it!
Seeing that the emperor was angry, a group of young palace maids didn't care about anything else and hurriedly took the ribbon away.
[This isn't a blessing at all! This is terrible! The blessing bag is better. Who gave this to me? I really want to take a look!]
When the imperial concubine heard her daughter muttering about a blessing bag, she turned around and took a look at the pile of gifts, and actually found one.
So she picked up the prayer bag casually, took a look at it, and found that it was sent by Pei Yuan, the Minister of Rites.
"There are so many blessing ribbons, it's really not appropriate to hang them in the princess's room. This little blessing sachet is better. I find it very interesting!"
As the imperial concubine spoke, she also discovered a note in the gift box, so she took it out and took a look at it.
"Your Majesty, look! This Minister of Rites, Lord Pei, is truly thoughtful. He even sincerely requested this lucky bag from the temple!"
Hearing the three words "Master Pei", the system suddenly screamed.
[Host, quickly think of a way to make this Master Pei the Minister of Rites!]
It wasn't just the system that was excited at this time. Yao Guangyue was also excited because in the original plot, several countries at the Wanchao Conference tried to discredit Yaoguang Kingdom.
It was this Lord Pei who debated with a group of scholars and left them speechless, and also demonstrated the etiquette of a great country.
However, his statement angered the current Minister of Rites, Lord Bai. Lord Bai had the support of Prime Minister Wen, and it didn't take long for Lord Pei to be completely killed.
[Don't shout yet. I know this is a talent and a key plot point, but what can I do now? Just wait!]
The emperor had already learned from his daughter's thoughts that Pei Yuan was an important person, but he still needed some ideas on how to bring this person up, after all, Lord Bai was still in office.
