The eunuch, the chief administrator of the Internal Affairs Department, hurriedly came out, wiped his cold sweat and said to check immediately.

The emperor raised the thin page of paper in his hand at Jiang Yichun and Bai Ruozhu, and said, "Jiang Aiqing and his wife should come and see if it is Mrs. Jiang's handwriting." ”

Jiang Yichun glanced at Bai Ruozhu, signaled her not to worry, and then led her forward, but after reading the letter, both of them couldn't help but change their faces.

It's too similar, if it weren't for the fact that the sentence was too numb, Bai Ruozhu would have thought that she wrote it herself.

Emperor Wu Ning saw the change in Jiang Yichun's expression, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Flies don't bite seamless eggs, Jiang Aiqing, isn't this letter really written by your wife?"

Bai Ruozhu looked at Jiang Yichun with some worry, that is, she herself would admit her mistake, could Jiang Yichun misunderstand?

But soon Jiang Yichun's brows furrowed, and there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Back to Your Majesty, this letter is by no means written by my wife, but this copy is so similar that it surprises me too much. Jiang Yichun said.

"Oh, how can you tell the difference?" The emperor was a little suspicious that Jiang Yichun was deliberately shielding Bai Ruozhu.

Jiang Yichun took the letter paper, pointed to the word "悅" on it, and said: "Your Majesty, please look at this character, my wife has a problem with writing, these two points on the head are written upside down, and it is not unrecognizable on weekdays, so I did not deliberately correct her, which can be seen from my wife's manuscript." ”

Bai Ruozhu looked at Jiang Yichun in surprise, she didn't know that Jiang Yichun was so subtle in her observation, she was used to writing simplified characters, and she could also practice traditional Chinese characters when she came here, but the two points on the head of the simplified characters were inverted eight characters, and the traditional ones were positive eight characters, and she could write complicated others, but this point was always forgotten.

So what she wrote was "Yue", not the "Yue" in the letter.

Bai Ruozhu turned her head and smiled at Jiang Yichun, she was glad that he didn't doubt her, and even more glad that he cared carefully about every detail of her.

Jiang Yichun can say this, the emperor has already believed it for seven or eight points, and Concubine Liu Guizi gritted her teeth beside her, secretly scolding the person who copied it for not being careful enough, how could she miss such a detail? Unfortunately, she didn't know that the two nods were not in the Bai Ruozhu handbook they got.

After a while, the chief eunuch came back, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and knelt down in front of the emperor with a pop, "The slave is incompetent, he didn't manage his subordinates well, and he just found a eunuch who committed suicide by hanging a beam, he is just a general eunuch in the Department of Internal Affairs, but he is wearing the clothes of a steward eunuch, I think it is the person mentioned by Mrs. Jiang." ”

Death without proof?

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun glanced at each other, and it seemed that the two of them had thought of a piece

Today is the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, and there are so many ministers and officials present, it can't be a special place to investigate the case, Emperor Wuning weighed it, and finally asked someone to send Li Yuande back to accept the lesson, and then assured Jiang Yichun and Bai Ruozhu that they must find out when they go back, and the matter will be temporarily suppressed.

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun thanked each other, and they didn't mention it again, this matter involved Liu Guifei, and the emperor would be very embarrassed.

It wasn't until the end of the birthday banquet that Bai Ruozhu breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that something would happen again, especially any assassination, rebellion and the like, she really couldn't bear it.

On the carriage back, Jiang Yichun hugged Bai Ruozhu tightly, and said apologetically: "Lady, bringing you to Beijing with you is really a burden to you." ”

"Fool, we are a family, what is there to do or not, today I have to go out to repair that screen, and rob Liu Meiren of the opportunity to attract the emperor's attention, so I caused trouble. Bai Ruozhu said indifferently, compared with many things he had experienced before, today's events are really not thrilling.

"Maybe Liu Meiren's matter is a disguise, pay attention to the fact that you are not happy that you have repaired the screen. Jiang Yichun whispered.

"I don't want to do so much, keep this account in mind first, the emperor is not easy to clean up, why should we provoke?" Bai Ruozhu stretched his waist widely, "Go back and hug your son and sleep well, and start packing your bags tomorrow and getting ready to go home!"

At the mention of going home, Bai Ruozhu's spirit was radiant, and his tone was full of excitement.

Jiang Yichun's mood was also raised, but the thought of returning to Beiyu City to face his master made his heart sink again.

In the next few days, Bai Ruozhu didn't go out to buy, and directly handed it over to the steward below, and he was playing with the pedaling at home, and the red rash on the pedaling face was getting lighter and lighter, but it was still obvious that Bai Ruozhu was afraid of the branches, and he had been very careful to hide the pedaling situation.

Li Wanhua, who has the best relationship, came twice, and she didn't need to see the pedaling, but she only heard the laughter of the child.

About the fifth day after the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, the Queen Mother summoned Bai Ruozhu into the palace again.

This time, the Queen Mother rewarded Bai Ruozhu with a pearl shirt, which was made of large South China Sea pearls, which was very expensive.

"You just take it, this is what you deserve, on the one hand, you helped the Meng family that day, and it can be regarded as a great deed. On the other hand, the curtain you gave me is very much in line with my heart, and if I don't want to reward you too much in public, I will reward you for being so good at once. The Queen Mother's tone was a little more cordial, and this time she still just called herself "I".

Bai Ruozhu hurriedly saluted and thanked him, and happily accepted the queen mother's reward.

"There is also Li Yuande's matter, now it has been investigated, it is a female official next to Liu Meiren who hates you for repairing the screen and affecting her master's performance, so she instructed the eunuch to lie to you, the emperor has already punished her heavily, and Li Yuande, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out of bed for a month. When the Queen Mother mentioned Li Yuande, a look of hatred flashed in her eyes.

Bai Ruozhu understood at once, even if Princess Jade Temples didn't tell the emperor, she would definitely tell the Queen Mother about Li Yuande's desire to insult her, and it was no wonder that the Queen Mother was closer to her.

As for Li Yuande, it is estimated that he will not be able to get out of bed in this life, and no matter how charitable and generous the Queen Mother is, it is impossible to let go of this kind of bastard who wants to spoil his daughter.

"It's good to figure things out, but I haven't been able to figure it out, who copied my handwriting?" Bai Ruozhu asked deliberately.

The Queen Mother looked a little dazed, sighed and said: "There are many things in this capital that you don't understand, you are about to leave Beijing, but I heard the emperor say that you will come back in a year at most, and there are still many things you have to get used to by then." ”

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "Ruozhu, thank the Queen Mother for mentioning it." ”

Not long after Bai Ruozhu left the palace and returned to the courtyard, the emperor's reward in the palace also arrived, mainly because he was calculated by Diao Nu that day, and the emperor gave some rewards to suppress the shock.

Sure enough, the emperor had no choice but to appease Liu Guifei and General Liu, so he could only appease them.

Bai Ruozhu said in his heart that he had made a lot of money, which could be regarded as a blessing in disguise, so he happily packed his luggage, and the family left the capital three days later and returned the same way.
