Chapter 686 Bai Yanyu is stunned
How could it be so relaxed? A woman who was charming and originally planned to charm her life suddenly fell in love with someone, and was so in love that she was willing to give up her charm for him, change out of her beautiful dress, and be a good woman.
How could it be so easy to ask such a person to say that she doesn’t care?
But Bai Yanyu said it, and she used all her strength, and every word was like a knife cutting the heart. She still said it.
Because she saw that it was her second sister who was playing games with the old empress dowager, and she could never drag her down.
She is just a little illegitimate daughter. Her sister helps her without grudges and accepts her. She has no idea how to repay her. How could she drag her sister back at this time?
In fact, she cared about many things, the fifth prince, and the secret of the Bai family mentioned by the old lady. Because she knew in her heart that the secret must be related to the fifth prince, and it would definitely not be good news for her.
But she had to pretend to be careless, not only to the old lady but also to her sister. Because she saw that her sister didn't want her to know this secret, it seemed that once she knew this secret, it would make it difficult for her sister to do it.
Besides, she didn't dare to ask, and even if Bai Heran wanted to tell her, she didn't want to listen. Just maintain the status quo. After all, maintaining the status quo can keep her in a state of secret love. She was unwilling to give up, and she didn't want to forget that she liked that person, no matter what happened, she liked that person.
So she must forget everything she saw and heard today, just remember what she said, as long as she remembers that she must stand on her sister's side at any time.
But her heart was in chaos, and she was like a lonely boat floating on the turbulent sea. A wave could knock her over, but she had to move forward bravely. She had promised her heart, but there was no way out. The road was chosen by herself, and she had to walk on her knees.
"Miss Three, are you okay?" At some point, Yu Ben had already arrived in front of Bai Yanyu and was squatting on the ground to support her. "Miss Three, are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want a servant to invite an imperial physician to show you?"
Yu Ben is not familiar with Bai Yanyu at all. He had no impression of this third lady in the past. Now the Duke Wen Guo Mansion has only two masters to let him remember it, one is Princess Tianci and the other is the future Princess Shen. As for Bai Yanyu, Yu Ben only thinks that she is a little concubine, with no status, and no power. There are too many such existences.
But today Princess Tianci summoned the third lady into the palace, and the two were still together in the empress dowager's bedroom for so long. Although he couldn't hear clearly outside, he could still hear a few words occasionally. It was not Bai Heran's voice, but the third lady.
The third lady of the Bai family was scolding the old empress dowager, which surprised Yu Benjie. When was a concubine daughter of Duke Wen's mansion so popular? Is Duke Wen's mansion rising too fast, or is the old empress dowager really getting into trouble now?
However, no matter which reason, he would be happy to see such a result. He is a loyal follower of the Ninth and the Tenth Highness and the Old Emperor. His temper was cultivated by Jiang Yue. Now Jiang Yue is no longer in the palace, and the emperor gave him Jiang Yue's position. Although he didn't understand what was going on, he continued to go to the emperor and the two emperors, and he did not run away.
As for Jiang Yue, some people say that Jiang Yue was seriously ill and was about to die, while others say that Jiang Yue had done something wrong and offended the emperor and was secretly executed. But Yu Ben would never believe it, and neither possibility would be believed.
He knew the emperor very well. The emperor treated Jiang Yue as his godson, so it was not easy to execute him if he did something wrong.
So his position was very firm. Driven by such a firm position, he also felt a little fond of Bai Yanyu, the third lady. At this moment, he suddenly fell down after seeing Bai Yanyu come out, and his little face was pale, which scared him to death.
"Miss Third, what's wrong with you?" His voice was very low, not wanting everyone inside to hear it. After all, Bai Yanyu was still pretending to be angry just now. If the old lady knew that the person would be silly as soon as she came out, she would not be able to make a joke.
Yes, Yu Ben felt that Bai Yanyu was frightened. No matter how he said that, it was the empress dowager. Maybe he was impulsive at the time, but when he came out, his legs were weak, which was not impossible.
"Come on, I will help you get up first. Let's sit for a while and calm your mood." Yu Ben advised Bai Yanyu while supporting Bai Yanyu, "Miss Three, you really don't have to feel that much psychological pressure. Although I scolded the Queen Mother, I scolded me. I said something wrong. The old empress dowager's life and death are now in the hands of ninety-two His Highnesses. These two His Highnesses are your future brother-in-law and the other is your future brother-in-law. With them supporting me, I really scolded me. The Queen Mother dared not do anything to you."
Bai Yanyu smiled bitterly in her heart. No wonder everyone wants to fight for power. It turns out that it is really good to have power and power. After the power is overwhelming, no one dares to do anything to her even if she scolds the Queen Mother.
Bai Yanyu took a deep breath and recovered a little. No matter what, she was still having fun today. She didn't even dare to act rashly in Duke Wen's mansion in this life. She had to be even more humble when facing her father and second wife. Unexpectedly, she turned over and scolded the old empress dowager today. Although the secrets of the fifth prince and the Bai family made her a little depressed, she could feel a little more comfortable when scolding the empress dowager at the bottom.
With a clear mind, Bai Yanyu realized that Yu Ben had been persuading her, so he quickly got up and talked.
Yu Ben shivered and quickly pressed the person down: "Miss 3, what are you going to do?"
Bai Yanyu was stunned for a moment and said embarrassedly: "Eunuch Yu, don't be nervous, I just want to stand up and greet you."
"No! Don't treat him with a servant. Oh, you're going to kill him. How can you treat him with a servant as a master? You can sit down quickly!" He didn't dare to provoke Bai Yanyu. The empress dowager dared to scold him if he couldn't serve him well. "What, are you thirsty? Do you want a servant to pour you water? The servant asked someone to make tea. I think the princess will stay in there for a while. You can wait for her while drinking tea, okay?"
Bai Yanyu thought about it and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm a little thirsty and a little hungry. I came in a hurry. So I had a meal in the morning. Can Eunuch Yu make me some snacks? I'll put a little padding. If my sister still has some use for me in a while, I have to save enough energy before going in. You don't know that now, I'm not talking to the old witch... No, it's a lot of effort to talk to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager. She's old and her ears are back, and she can't hear clearly without making a sound. Sometimes she's not very clear. I have to reach out and twist her face a few times before she can let her listen to me well, so she's so tired!"
Yu Ben shivered again. The daughter of the Bai family is really fierce! How did Duke Wen give birth to a daughter? Why did he have more tempers than the other? After a long time of trouble, he not only scolded the queen mother, but also started to do it.
However, when Yu Ben thought of the scene of Bai Yanyu twisting the Empress Dowager, he felt very satisfied. He was a slave and he would definitely not have that opportunity in his life. But now he was happy to see Bai Yanyu have this opportunity.
"Miss 3, wait, I will send you food. What do you like to eat? Oh, forget it, come and eat whatever you like. You can wait, and I will go here."
Yu Ben ran away. Soon after, a palace servant first brought tea here. After Bai Yanyu drank two cups of tea, a palace servant entered Defu Palace one after another, and like a magic trick, he created a large tabletop in front of Bai Yanyu.
Bai Yanyu stared blankly as the dishes were placed on this big table. As I said, there were both meat and vegetable.
But there are too many dishes, right? There are sixteen dishes, not only are there dishes and wine, but Yu Ben even personally served her.
What is she going to do? What did she say before? She only has a few pieces of snacks and a pot of tea. Is this... a banquet?
Bai Yanyu looked at Yu Ben, his voice trembling, "Eunuch Yu, who is this for? Who has such a good appetite?"
Yu Ben smiled and said, "This is all for you, Miss San. It is a little simple in a hurry. Please don't be surprised. Next time you come, say hello in advance. I will ask the imperial kitchen to prepare a decent table of dishes for you."
Bai Yanyu was speechless, and the face was still called simple? People in your palace could die without pretending to be dead? This level is called simple. What do you usually eat? This is the food that can only be eaten during the New Year of the Duke’s Mansion!
In fact, she really misunderstood Yu Ben. Yu Benzhen didn't pretend, and this face was indeed simple in the palace. Of course, this is also compared to the masters who are like the emperor and the little princess. As for other concubines who have never been favored, have no descendants, and have no backers, they only eat these things on weekdays.
But Bai Yanyu didn't know. She just thought it was too exaggerated, so she asked Yu Ben in a low voice: "Why are you doing such a big battle? I just want to make a stomachache. How can I finish eating alone when you make such a big table?"
Yu Ben happily explained to her: "Miss 3, you don't have to finish eating, just pick up what you like, and you can eat as much as you can, and only the leftovers are left. The palace masters all have a case, no matter whether they can finish eating or not, this is called noodles."
"It's so wasteful." Bai Yanyu said sincerely, "It's really a wasteful thing. If these things were taken to Tianci Academy, it would be enough for the children to improve their food several times. Otherwise, can I pack them up if I can't finish eating? I'll take them back for the children to eat."
Bai Yanyu often comes to Tianci Town and is very familiar with the situation in the town. She often goes to Tianci Academy, which is open in Tianci Town, so she understands the hardships and the thrift of those children more intuitively, and more directly sees the children's thriftiness.
So she thought that if these dishes were packed, she would walk faster after leaving the palace later, and maybe she would be able to serve dinner for her children. This is a great opportunity to improve the food, and the children would be happy without spending money.
The two were talking, but at this moment, they suddenly heard the old empress dowager's scream from the bedroom - "What did you say? Say it to me again!"
