After sending Qinglian away, several people surrounded Master Cui and shouted,
"Mr. Cui, Mr. Cui, please wake up!"
"What should I do? Will he die?"
"Go find the imperial physician and report to the emperor."
"Madam, you have harmed Master Cui. Please come with us to confront the Emperor."
"What are you arguing about? When did I ever harm anyone? It was clearly your carelessness that caused him to drown, yet you dare not take responsibility and instead put the blame on a woman like me.
I was sitting here peacefully holding my child. Who told you to push forward? Not to mention that the person is not dead, even if he is dead, it is your fault. It has nothing to do with me."
"Madam, even if you are talking on your own, you still need convincing evidence!"
The pretty boy speaks
"You say it was me who did it, but what evidence do you have?"
"You're the one who kicked us into the water."
"Why did I kick you for no reason?"
"because......"
"Just because they're afraid we'll squeeze your son."
"Why are you squeezing my son? What good will squeezing him bring?"
"We are just expressing our affection for your young master. If you don't want us to touch you, you don't have to kick us all into the water!"
It will avoid the important issues
"Hurry up and save him. If you don't give him first aid, he will really be killed by you."
"How can we save her when she's clearly dead? It's all your fault. You can't get away with it today no matter what."
"He's clearly not dead, but you're leaving him there and claiming you didn't mean to kill him."
Bai Zhiyue walked over and looked at Master Cui. He was lying flat on the ground and looked like he was indeed dead.
Suddenly he struck him on the chest.
"Puff~cough cough cough"
"Mr. Cui, you're alive!"
"Look, he's not dead. I kept telling you to save him, but you refused to do anything. You insisted on dragging him to death, just to put the blame on me.
It's a life after all, but you are so cruel and ruthless. If this lady hadn't really been unable to bear it, he would have died in your hands."
Cui Kuo was not unconscious. He heard Lady Bo remind them repeatedly to save people, but they, especially Gong Huaijin, kept forcing her and left him there.
Although they came here to cause trouble, they were so indifferent when I got into trouble. Are they still my friends?
In fact, most people didn’t ignore him but were afraid and wanted Bai Zhiyue to take the responsibility.
Only Gong Huaijin, also known as the pretty boy, has always wanted to harm Bai Zhiyue.
"Okay, we are sorry for being rude today. Everyone needs to change clothes. Don't freeze in such a cold weather. Let's follow the palace maids."
Although the palace servants brought some blankets to keep warm, it was not appropriate to be soaked outside in this season, as it was easy to get sick.
Things obviously failed, so I had to leave.
Although Gong Huaijin was unwilling that he could not harm Lady Bo today, the person in charge this time was Cui Kuo, who had already given up. It would be inappropriate for him to continue to pursue him.
This matter ended in a whimper. It can’t be said that it ended, but it ended this time.
When she returned to the palace, Concubine Cui saw that she came in fine, but one of her nails was broken.
The noble concubine also glanced at her vaguely.
"Mom, I've offended so many people today."
"If you don't want to be bullied, you have to confront some people."
"This Concubine Cui is a fool. She is the emperor's concubine, but she supports the Gao family who are not on the same side with the emperor."
"It's not necessarily for the Gao family, it's just because her sister lost face in front of me."
"But her sister didn't do it for the surname Gao."
"She may not know about this. That's why I wanted to save Cui Kuo and enlighten him. I hope he can figure it out."
The emperor had long heard what was happening outside, but because the victims did not tell him about it, he pretended not to know. He did not want to interfere during the New Year.
He felt that if the Bai family could be provoked, they would definitely be able to hold on. If they really couldn't hold on, they still had the gold medal, so they would not suffer a big loss.
Bai Zhiyue did not go out again in the second half, thinking about how to report the information to the emperor when she returned. She had to give something back after giving him the gold medal. It was her fault for letting these people mess with her.
Since they are in opposition anyway, it is better to cut it off early to avoid causing trouble for yourself.
The palace banquet lasted until late at night, and the fireworks were also set off, which was a good experience. There were various performances, constantly changing delicacies, and fireworks to watch.
When they left the palace, Doudou had already fallen asleep, and Hongying stepped forward to help take over.
"Madam, you must be exhausted. I wanted to ask the palace servants to take you in, but they said that no one can enter after the time."
Even if Ren Hongying gave her silver, the uterus would not allow her to
"This is also for the safety of the palace. If anyone can enter at will, the palace will be unsafe and that person will be unable to sit still."
"It's a pity that you are only allowed to bring one servant. Otherwise, with two people here, no one would be allowed to enter the madam's body."
"They're not doing any good. They're bound to catch a cold if they go back. Let's go back!"
After returning home, Bai Zhiyue quickly wrote a note, rolled it into thin strips, put it in a small bottle and plugged it.
"Congcong, come quickly!"
"Why are you calling me in the middle of the night?"
"I have something for you"
"No way, today is New Year's Day, I want to take a day off too!"
"It's very important. It concerns whether you can still eat delicious food in the future, and whether the Earl's Mansion can be preserved."
"So serious?"
"Yeah, I offended a lot of big shots today."
If the Queen Mother of Chu wanted to suppress her, it would be hard to say what would happen. Today, the pretty boy's attitude towards her was very unusual.
If they had grudges against the Cui and Gao families, it was normal for them to want revenge. But where did Gong Huaijin have any grudges against her when they first met? Why did he want to harm her so clearly? Was it just because he was also the King of Chu's man and couldn't bear to see her embarrass the Gao family?
"Well, it's not a good year to celebrate, but you've brought yourself into such a big mess. It's really annoying. Come on, give it to me, who should I give it to?"
"The one with the highest status in the palace, the one who flies to the best accommodation when you enter, the one wearing a black robe with a five-clawed golden dragon, everyone who sees him has to call him the emperor."
"Oh, Your Majesty, I know!"
"It must be given to him, don't give it to anyone else!"
“I’m not stupid.”
"Wait for your news, go quickly"
Bai Zhiyue tied the small bottle to one of his legs and watched it fly towards the palace.
After the palace banquet, the emperor and his concubines and children sat together for a while, as if it were a family gathering, before letting everyone return to their own palaces. He was supposed to be with the queen today, but he didn't like her, so he exchanged a few words with her in her palace before returning to his own bedroom.
"The Emperor is really losing his manners more and more"
Xiuchun, the maidservant beside the queen, was dissatisfied with her master.
"What's the point of saying this? Apart from the one month of courtesy we gave me during our wedding, when have you ever given me any respect in all these years?"
"Your Majesty, this is too much. No matter what, you are from the Pingnan Marquisate. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager and the Marquis's support, there would be no Emperor today."
"He just thinks we are too powerful."
