Chapter 223 The Princess

Princess's Mansion,

In Jinyun Garden, there was a pear tree growing very well. Knowing that Bai Jinzhi liked pear blossoms, Feng Zhaoyun spent a lot of money to have someone transplant the tree for him.

There was a soft couch under the tree, and Bai Jinzhi was lying on it with one leg bent. He was dressed in white, and his hair was half-tied with a white jade hairpin. His handsome face like an immortal made him seem unreal at the moment, as if he had come out of a painting.

A young eunuch was pouring tea for him, the water poured into the teacup, and the fragrance filled the air.

The guard entered the garden and knelt down, "Your Highness." Then he glanced at the eunuch beside him.

Bai Jinzhi put down the scroll in his hand, knowing what the guard meant. "No problem, just tell me."

Then he sat up and crossed his legs on the couch, with the hand holding the scroll casually resting on his knees, and the other hand picking up the teacup.

The guard clasped his fists and said, "Yes, at court this morning, Duke Feng and General Xiao Yushan proposed to His Majesty that the Crown Princess be released from house arrest. His Majesty was furious and punished them, confining them to the palace and not allowed to leave without permission."

After hearing this, Bai Jinzhi's expression remained calm and composed. He didn't even glance at the guards and said, "Retreat."

The guard quickly lowered his head, "One more thing."

Bai Jinzhi was a little impatient, "What's the matter?"

Guard, "The Second Prince led the envoys back to Shang State. He suddenly fell ill on the way. He sent a messenger to deliver the document to the Imperial City at full speed. When His Majesty saw it, he was very angry for some reason, but he still ordered General Xue to send his troops to protect the Second Prince. There has been no news from the Black Eagle yet."

Just as he finished speaking, Bai Jinzhi suddenly looked up and dropped the white jade cup in his hand. "Come here, prepare the horses!"

Then he casually pulled a white fox fur cloak onto his body and headed towards the gate of the Princess's Mansion.

The news that the princess had anxiously gone out quickly spread throughout the mansion.

At this time, in Bai Mohan's Qingmo Garden, A Zi and A Hua came out of the yard with trays in their hands.

After the two of them walked out of the yard, Ah Zi said, "Brother, if Brother Mo Han is cured of the poison, will he blame us?"

Ah Hua turned his head and glanced back habitually. "It's okay. Just say it was Her Highness the Princess's wish. Besides, you're a master of poison making, so why would you be afraid of him?"

Ah Zi sighed, "Brother Mo Han was very good to me. I feel ashamed for treating him like this..."

Ah Hua comforted her, "Your sister Ah Yun is in Yue Country. If he had gone there that day, it would have caused chaos. You did a good thing."

Ah Zi nodded, "That's right."

That day, Bai Mohan learned that the princess had gone to the Moon Kingdom and that the one in the mansion was a fake princess, so he prepared to go to the Moon Kingdom. Before he set off, he was poisoned by Bai Jinzhi, A Zi and others, and has been in a coma ever since. This poison will make people fall asleep until they take the antidote.

If he were to go to the Moon Kingdom as he pleased, Bai Jinzhi was afraid that he would turn the Moon Kingdom upside down.

Although the people around Bai Mohan knew that their master was being ambushed, they were powerless to do anything and could only watch silently.

A Zi and A Hua went to feed him nourishing medicine every day. Although he was in a coma and unable to eat, thanks to their care, he was healthier than before.

After leaving the mansion, the princess rode her horse all the way to the Duke's Mansion.

Although it was daytime, the Empress issued an order that the gates of the Duke's Mansion be closed.

Bai Jinzhi dismounted, went forward and knocked on the door, and then, led by his attendants, arrived at the main courtyard of the Duke's Mansion.

At this time, Duke Feng was practicing archery with his upper body naked. When he heard that his son was coming, he sneered and ignored him.

Bai Jinzhi walked to the stone table beside him, without saying a word, just looking at Duke Feng.

After a long time, Duke Feng saw that he was still looking at him, so he had no choice but to put down the bow and arrow in his hand and walked towards the stone table.

Duke Feng took the handkerchief from the attendant and wiped his sweat as he said, "Greetings, Lady Crown Princess. Why, are you gloating over your father's confinement?"

Bai Jinzhi glanced at the people around him, and Duke Feng waved his hand to dismiss everyone in the courtyard.

Bai Jinzhi, "What happened in the palace today? Why did you help Her Highness the Princess?"

Duke Feng sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and wiped the corner of his mouth. "Your Majesty scolded the rebellious son while sending people to protect him. If I am not mistaken, there is probably no Princess Crown Princess in your Crown Princess's mansion."

Bai Jinzhi didn't explain and sat down. "What exactly is written in that document?"

I came here today because I knew that my father did not like Her Highness the Crown Princess, and that he suddenly came to her aid. This was unusual, and he must have known something.

Duke Feng chuckled, "General Xue is commanding his troops to go to the Moon Kingdom, regardless of causing panic on the border, all for the sake of an unpopular Second Prince? Haha... Even if something goes wrong, you can be your prince again and find a good wife to marry into your family."

After hearing this, Bai Jinzhi's usually calm face finally showed a trace of panic. He stood up suddenly and was about to leave.

Duke Feng spoke coldly from behind, "She wasn't a good match! My father once said that people from the royal family are the most unreliable. I advise you not to interfere and just let her die."

After hearing this, Bai Jinzhi narrowed his peach blossom eyes with an angry expression. He casually pulled off a leaf from the tree and threw it backwards. The cup that Duke Feng was holding exploded, and then he left the Duke's Mansion.

The tea immediately spilled onto Duke Feng's trousers. He was furious. Everyone left, and he even stood up and deliberately took two steps forward, pointing at the air and cursing, "You bastard! Your father trained you in martial arts, and you actually used it to hit me!"

After leaving the Duke's Mansion, Bai Jinzhi entered the palace and requested to see the emperor.

Zhou Fuhai was in the imperial study and bowed, "Your Majesty, the princess is outside seeking an audience."

The empress was reviewing memorials with a jade pen in her hand, and she did not raise her eyes. "Let him in."

Then he put down the pen.

Bai Jinzhi entered the palace and knelt before the empress, "I pay my respects to my mother."

The empress looked at him coldly, "You must address me as Your Majesty in public from now on. Why are you here when you're not staying in your mansion?"

The Empress had always been indifferent to her. In her heart, the most suitable person for the position of Grand Lady was Nangong Shang, but unfortunately that person was dead, so she had to take his place. The Empress actually liked Nangong Shang very much.

Bai Jinzhi stood up and said, "I heard that the Second Prince has fallen seriously ill. I have nothing to do in the palace, so I would like to ask Your Majesty for a job. I am willing to go to the border despite my illness and escort the Second Prince back to the capital safely."

The Empress looked at the man in front of her and sneered. She was afraid that he had guessed that Yun'er was in danger and came here. Bai Jinzhi was once the commander-in-chief of the Shang Kingdom. If he went...

The Empress said, "Since you wish to go, then go ahead. You are married to the Crown Princess, and husband and wife are one. You should advise Yun'er on all matters. But I see that you, the Crown Princess, are completely useless now, unable to persuade even your own master. When you return this time, you will reflect on your actions in the palace!"

Bai Jinzhi's expression remained calm. "Thank you, Your Majesty. If there is nothing else, I will not disturb you."

The empress waved her hand and said, "Step back."

Bai Jin took a few steps back and walked out of the imperial study.

It doesn’t matter, as long as they agree to let me go. As for the empress’s attitude towards me, I don’t care.
