The princess has no moral principles, why did you provoke her?

Chapter 136: Harm others first, harm yourself first

Nanny Qin received Ye Qingyan's instructions and told the guard: "The master is out, let him come back another day."

"Yes, Madam Qin." The guard walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Minister Bai stood at the gate of the mansion, with five people beside him. One was the uneducated Bai Yaozu, and the other four were servants who were responsible for carrying the boxes.

The guard came to the door and clasped his fists: "Master Bai, my master went out early in the morning and is not in the mansion."

Bai Yaozu was a little unconvinced, "Your master couldn't have gone out. You didn't see her even though you were guarding the door. She doesn't want to see us, right?"

Another guard shouted angrily, "Who are you to lie like that? We have a back door in our house, and the master sometimes takes a shortcut.

Besides, if you come to ask for a meeting with our master, we can see you if he wants to, and not see you if he doesn’t want to. That is our right.

You are actually giving orders here, Lord Bai, please go back and take care of your people first.

When my master returns, I will report this matter to her truthfully.

Minister Bai glared at Bai Yaozu and slapped him in the face, "Shut up!"

Bai Yaozu covered his red and swollen face with one hand, feeling extremely aggrieved, "Uncle, uncle."

Minister Bai took out a gold ingot from his clothes and gave it to the guard. "It's all because of my lack of discipline. Take this little silver and have some tea."

The guards looked at the silver ingot and did not take it, because their master rewarded them with dozens of times the amount of silver.

"Master Bai, you should take back the silver. I won't tell the master about these things. You should be careful with your words and actions in our house.

Minister Bai clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much. I will come to visit your master another day. Please accept these gifts."

The guard refused: "Sir, the master is not here, so I cannot accept these gifts on her behalf. Please don't make it difficult for me."

Minister Bai waved his hand, and several servants carried the box back to the Bai Mansion.

The eldest lady asked, "Why is this gift brought back? Where is that damn girl Bai Jinxin?"

Minister Bai sighed, "Perhaps Princess Zhan knows Jin Xin's life story and is angry, so she won't meet with him, nor will she let Jin Xin go easily."

The anger in Yun Wanqing's heart burned uncontrollably again. She became furious and resentful: Princess Zhan is so ungrateful.

Although she holds the title of Princess Zhan, she is still unmarried. Bai Jinxin's surname is Bai, so even if she is just a maid, she can be redeemed with some money. Her mansion will not be short of such a maid."

Bai Yaozu cheered on the side: "Uncle, aunt, give her more silver, she should send my cousin back."

The eldest lady agreed after hearing this: "Master, Yaozu is right. A maid only costs twenty taels of silver, and she has to be good-looking.

A family of one or two hundred taels wouldn't even consider her. A thousand taels might be a bit much, but if I marry her to that old man Liu Baiwan as his twentieth concubine, I can get two hundred thousand taels of silver and ten shops."

Bai Yaozu looked puzzled: "Uncle, are you really going to marry my cousin to that old man?"

Minister Bai nodded and said, "Yaozu, you may not know that the Bai Mansion's treasury was robbed some time ago, causing great losses. There is nothing we can do about it."

Bai Yaozu felt a little unfair for Bai Jinxin. Her father was going to sell her out and cheat her for the rest of her life.

He asked, "Jinxin isn't as pretty as cousin Xiyue, why don't you send her there?"

Minister Bai glared at him and said, "How can your cousin Xiyue marry such an old man? She wants to marry into a wealthy family and become the principal wife.

Bai Jinxin can only marry him. She is the daughter of our Bai family. Now that the Bai family is in trouble, she must be at the forefront. "

Although Bai Yaozu was not a good person, when Bai Jinxin's mother was alive, whenever she was hungry, she would go to the pastry shop they opened to get some food.

Bai's mother would always give him some and never complained about anything.

He said against his will: "Uncle is right, cousin Xiyue must marry a prince or noble and become the mistress of the house, so Jinxin can only marry an old man."

The eldest lady concentrated for a moment and said gently, "Master, I will go to Princess Zhan's residence tomorrow. After all, we are both women, so it will be more convenient for me to go."

"Okay, I'll do as you say. Be sure to bring Jinxin back."

Bai Yaozu lied that he had something to do, left the Bai Mansion, and walked towards Ye Qingyan's residence.

When he arrived and was about to knock on the door, the door was pushed open and Nanny Qin came out with Bai Jinxin.

He shouted, "Jinxin, run quickly, it will be too late if you are late."

Nanny Qin yelled, "Shut up, you bastard, where did you come from? Who are you?"

"I'm her cousin!"

Nanny Qin turned around and said, "Jinxin, do you know him?"

Bai Jinxin nodded.

Bai Yaozu looked around to see if there were any outsiders around, and whispered, "I ate a lot of cakes from your house, as a way of repaying your kindness.

My uncle wants to marry you to that old man Liu Baiwan as a concubine. That way he can get two hundred thousand taels of silver and ten shops in the capital. Run away now and don't tell anyone what I said."

Having said that, he ran away.

Bai Jinxin stood there motionless, tears streaming down her face helplessly, and began to complain: "He is my biological father, why would he cheat me like this!"

Nanny Qin cursed, "These bastards gave birth to you but didn't raise you. Now that you've grown up, they're selling you for money.

Jinxin, your aunt is here and will definitely not let them harm you. Come on, come back with me and talk to the master."

After Ye Qingyan finished playing Landlord, she began to develop poison.

Nanny Qin brought Bai Jinxin in, and they knelt down immediately: "Master, please make the decision for Jinxin!"

Ye Qingyan looked puzzled. They had just finished playing Landlord together just a quarter of an hour ago, so why did he need to make the decision again?

She frowned, "What happened?"

Nanny Qin then repeated what Bai Yaozu had said.

Ye Qingyan looked at Bai Jinxin and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Jinxin, if you want to marry into a good family in the future, you have to go back."

Bai Jinxin looked at her with a puzzled expression: "Master, did I hear correctly?"

"You heard it right, you are Minister Bai's legitimate daughter, and you will marry into a good family in the future."

"Master, if she goes back now, she will marry Liu Baiwan. You know that old man."

Nanny Qin reminded again: "Minister Bai has no good intentions. His eldest wife is extremely evil. They don't marry their own daughters, but instead throw Jinxin into the fire pit."

Ye Qingyan smiled, put down the herbs in her hand, and gave some advice: "I want to redeem you for 100,000 taels of silver.

If they can take it out, you will go back with them, but the person who will marry Liu Baiwan is not you, but Bai Xiyue.

You have to put forward conditions. Your mother's tablet must be placed in the ancestral hall and she must be made the first lady. Otherwise, you cannot marry her no matter what.

Yun Wanqing is a smart person. She is eager to get the money and will not care about a dead person. You are the real legitimate daughter.

Don't worry, I'll take care of this. One hundred thousand taels of silver will be your dowry."

Nanny Qin nodded and said, "Master is right. Let Yun Wanqing suffer the consequences. But what if she is discovered the next day?"

Ye Qingyan smiled and said, "The name and birth date are both Bai Xiyue's, and she is the one who married into the family, so what's the problem?

If you want to harm someone else's daughter, you should first harm your own daughter.

Jinxin, when you go back, ask Fengyi to protect you temporarily. Once the Madam is dealt with, you will be safe in the Bai Mansion."
