Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 22 How can the human heart be so blind?

Emperor Yuan Zhen's complexion has changed. He is angry and thunderous.

Because he didn't see the dying struggle that he should have in Bai Mingwei, and he even felt Bai Weiyong's aura for a moment.

Yes, he hated Bai Weiyong, to the core of his being.

I hate Bai Weiyong, I hate Bai Weiyong like a hard bone to chew, I don’t eat soft or hard bones, and I have no respect for him.

The words of sages and strategies for governing the country are on his lips every day, and he is always gesticulating to him, a great figure in the Nine-Five-Year Plan.

He was already full of dissatisfaction and anger, and those emotions were like sand dunes piling up higher and higher. It was not easy for him to be relieved a little because of the misfortune suffered by the Bai family.

But at this time, Bai Mingwei's "neither humble nor arrogant" attitude made him furious.

Sensing the change in Emperor Yuanzhen's mood, Qin Fengye immediately fanned the flames: "How outrageous! Bai Mingwei, are you questioning His Majesty's decision, or are you teaching His Majesty how to do things?"

Bai Mingwei raised his eyes to look at this little man with long sleeves and good at dancing, taking in his triumphant face. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and asked, "Mingwei disagrees with this, sir."

"First, the report of the defeat in the frontier has just come. The bones of tens of thousands of soldiers are buried in the yellow sand. The cause and effect have not yet been investigated. How can I, the Bai family, be held responsible just because I am the head coach?"

"Your Majesty is wise and did not deal with the Bai family without finding out the truth. Since Your Majesty has not executed anyone, how can we question His Majesty's decision?"

"But what makes Mingwei curious is why you are so impatient and put the blame on the Bai family every word?"

"You said that the Bai family used their troops poorly, which resulted in the loss of the city and territory. Did you witness this with your own eyes, or have you already found out? Why are you so open and silent?"

"Ordinary criminals have to go through many levels of review to avoid unjust, false and wrongful convictions. How come they are here in the Bai family, and they all rely on the words of adults?"

"Victory and defeat are common matters in military affairs. Since ancient times, it has never been ridiculous to hold generals responsible until the truth is clear. The annihilation of [-] soldiers is an indisputable fact."

"But as long as it is not proved that this matter is all the responsibility of the Bai family, it will not be your turn to talk nonsense here. Are your words the law and the holy scripture?"

"Secondly, you said that Wei Wei is teaching His Majesty to do things, which is even more nonsense. Aren't you the one who has been cheating on His Majesty's behalf? Aren't you the one who has been stealing His Majesty's words and trying to act on His Majesty's behalf?"

"My lord has obviously said everything about how ugly I am, so why are you confusing the public now and saying that Wei Wei disrespects His Majesty? So, my lord, I obviously disagree with you!"

The words popped out like beads, without giving Qin Fengye a chance to interrupt. Qin Fengye was so angry that he was shaking all over and pointed at her for a long time without saying a word.

This is someone who has been recruited. He wants to see others laugh but becomes the joke himself.

Qin Fengye was so angry that his mouth twisted.

Emperor Yuan Zhen's condensed expression suddenly became more tense, and the corners of his lips were uncontrollably pursed, and his anger was palpable.

Originally, he had already made up his mind about what to do with Bai Weiyong.

All that was left for Bai Weiyong was death.

However, due to Bai Weiyong's influence, he did not want to be too obvious, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

He had enough patience to wait for the dying old man's vitality to drain away little by little, until only a rotten body remained.

Zhun Bai Mingwei came in just to watch the sideshow.

But what he didn't expect was that not only did Bai Mingwei not see the joke, but he was actually very angry.

After a while, he restrained his anger and did not get angry directly at Bai Mingwei, but his words showed the anger in his chest.

"Bai Mingwei, you are such a sharp-tongued Bai Mingwei. You haven't learned well at a young age. Didn't Bai Weiyong teach you the most basic etiquette? How can you be disrespectful to my minister, in front of me?"

This is blatant favoritism.

How could a generation of monarchs be so blind?
The bones of the hero are buried under the yellow sand and no one cares about them, but the villain takes all the glory with a few kind words.Just because the Bai family doesn't know how to flatter others, and because the Bai family doesn't know how to flatter others, they deserve to be wronged.

And Qin Fengye was so respectful that he didn't care about it even if it was a positive act or a negative one.

Is this the monarch that my grandfather dedicated his whole life and exerted all his energy to assist?
Bai Mingwei's heart gradually slipped into the bottomless abyss.

But she still suppressed the anger in her chest and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am not disrespecting the Grand Master, I just don't want to bear an unwarranted crime."

From the moment he met his grandfather, Bai Mingwei understood that Emperor Yuan Zhen wanted his grandfather's life.

The Bai family was defeated. Logically speaking, the emperor should investigate and deal with it.

But because his grandfather had already committed a capital crime by hitting the pillar in front of the emperor, the emperor was impatient and wanted to punish his grandfather for the crime of defeat and the crime of hitting the pillar together, so that his grandfather would die without a burial place.

For this reason, they also turned over old scores to the selection of concubines to make their accusations sound more true.

Bai Mingwei sneered inwardly.

She told herself that she would never admit this crime.

Once she opens an opening here, it will be extremely difficult to clear her name.

Emperor Yuan Zhen looked at Bai Mingwei coldly, with anger rolling in his eyes.

What a hard, smelly cesspit rock.

As annoying as Bai Weiyong.

If Bai Weiyong hadn't been in a high position and had the power to assist the government, how could he have raised one or two people so arrogant?
He was really impatient to fight with Bai Mingwei, and he didn't want to be known as bullying a girl.

Even if it needs to be dealt with, it will be done quietly.

So, he said: "Bai Mingwei, let's forget about the border issues and let's talk about Bai Weiyong's collision with the pillar. The law clearly stipulates that suicide in the palace is a capital crime."

"I will not punish Bai Weiyong immediately in accordance with the law because he has no merit but hard work. However, as the king of a country, I will not take the lead in treating the law as child's play."

"There must be a result for Bai Weiyong's collision with the pillar, otherwise the people will be uneasy and Bai Weiyong must be imprisoned and punished!"

"In addition, before the reasons for the annihilation of all [-] soldiers are found out, I also need to give an explanation to the world. I cannot let the Bai family suffer such a defeat. I will just brush it off without any reaction."

"I don't blame you for your misconduct in front of the emperor, and the result of Bai Weiyong's punishment will not change. You go back! Women should look like women, just embroider in the house when they have nothing to do, and break into the palace like today His reckless behavior must never happen again, otherwise I will never forgive him lightly!"

Emperor Yuan Zhen's determination to wait for Bai Weiyong's death was as solid as a rock.

There is no way to change it.

Bai Ming smiled, giving this shameless emperor an angry laugh.

What does it mean to have hard work without credit?

Is he blind?

My grandfather worked hard all his life and made great contributions to Dongling.

In the end, all I can say is "There is hard work without credit."

Does this erase all of my grandfather's efforts and value?
Just as Bai Mingwei was about to speak, the servant from outside hurried in and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Bai's condition has taken a turn for the worse. The imperial doctor said that he may not survive tonight."
