Bai Minghe was very interested in listening to what others were talking about.

"What kind of rumors are there to tell me, let me listen to it and see how the white-famous cranes are said in the capital."

"Young Master, it is rumored that you are extremely vicious in the capital. Whoever sticks to you is unlucky. Even the censors are unwilling to get in touch with you at the moment." After Qinghe said that, Bai Minghe snorted coldly: "It's better to make everyone afraid, not everyone loves you!"

That night, Bai Minghe spent the night in Qinghe's room and occupied Qinghe's bed. However, there was no one who occupied Qinghe. He fell asleep on Qinghe's legs in the first half of the night, and then turned to the bed alone in the middle of the night.

After all, Qinghe is still a virgin, so she can take the initiative to get into the bed of Baiminghe.

At night, Qinghe had to squeeze into Li Huamei's small bed in the room, and the two girls said something in the middle of the night.

The next day, around six o'clock, Qinghe woke Baiminghe and said he had entered the palace around ten o'clock. But he always had to make some preparations in advance. When Qinghe found out about Empress Dowager Sun's personality, living habits, and many gifts he had prepared, he had to explain them to Baiminghe one by one.

Bai Minghe didn't listen to a single word.

Qinghe, who bent down to tidy up Bai Minghe's hair, said to herself, and Bai Minghe's eyes were focused on the crimson on the snow-white mountain peak.

"Qinghe, I haven't asked yet, how old are you this year?"

Qinghe looked down at Bai Minghe, and naturally noticed Bai Minghe's gaze. Qinghe smiled slightly: "Young master, I am seventeen years old. If you want to see it, I will take it off and show it to the young master." Qinghe said something and blushed. Seeing Bai Minghe's face. Qinghe just pretended that he didn't see it.

However, the little girl Li Huamei was giggling and giggling next to her.

Bai Minghe didn't expect that he would be teased by his concubine.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Bai Minghe had arrived at Donghuamen, and only Li Huamei followed her. According to Qinghe, she used to be in the Jiasifang and had a long reputation, so it was inconvenient to enter the palace. She had no identity and was afraid of insulting Bai Minghe. On the contrary, although Li Huamei was also a slave, her naturalization period was short, and no one knew about it.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged father-in-law asked for peace in front of Bai Minghe with his eyebrows down.

Bai Minghe quickly returned the gift. The other party was a fifth-rank eunuch, but he was much taller than his seventh-rank official.

After receiving the gift from Bai Minghe, the eunuch in charge made a gesture of invitation and led the way in front. Naturally, several eunuchs carried the gift from Bai Minghe and followed behind.

Along the way, the eunuch in charge only gave a few words to a little eunuch in the palace who trimmed flowers and plants. It seemed that it was the flowers and plants that Queen Mother Sun liked, so she had to be pruned carefully. She never said anything else. If it weren't for these words, Bai Minghe would really think he was mute.

After entering the palace gate, the white-known crane was signaled to kneel in front of a curtain.

After kneeling for ten minutes, he heard the woman's voice coming from the curtain: "How come you don't understand the rules? Lord Bai is going to give him a seat in the Longsui study. Let Lord Bai kneel on his knees at Ai's house for so long, why don't you help Lord Bai up and give him a seat."

Tsk! Bai Minghe despised him in his heart, and said that without your instructions, who would dare to let me kneel for so long?

Whether it was a sensation or other reasons, Bai Minghe could only smile at the moment: "Thank you for the Empress Dowager, Bai Minghe brought some gadgets. They were all prepared by Zhuo Jing for the Empress Dowager."

"I'm sorry!" Queen Mother Sun replied lightly.

Just as Bai Minghe was about to say a few compliments, Empress Dowager Sun said, "I just don't know. Your wife's personal preparation was originally prepared for the Empress Dowager."

Damn, this is Hong Guoguo's hatred.

"The Empress Dowager, Bai Minghe dared to say something that lost his head. The Empress Dowager is the Empress Dowager, and his mother is noble by her son. As a minister, he only knows to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Long live his loyalty. My Bai Minghe was the first time I entered the capital in the second year of Jingtai. All I can do is to dedicate this life to my Bai Minghe's life honor and disgrace, and my Bai Minghe's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. Many things are not merits and demerits. There are later generations' comments and records of the calendar!"

The expression on Queen Mother Sun's face did not change at all.

She heard Bai Minghe's words in her ears, but she did not express any attitude. She just waved: "Girl, your name is Li Huamei. I have seen your father, and I know your grandmother. Come here to sit down. Do you know that your father is a lieutenant of the army. He died in battle but did not fall down, with hundreds of arrows inserted into his body!"

What does it mean? Does Empress Dowager Sun want to stimulate the little girl to death?

But who would have thought that Li Huamei went into the curtain and not only did not cry, but answered calmly: "As a general of the Ming Dynasty, fighting to the death is the duty."

"Then you are implicated and become a slave, don't you hate me?"

"I don't know!" Li Huamei's head was a little confused. She didn't know how to answer this question. It's fake to say that she didn't hate, but say she hated, who might she hate?

Queen Mother Sun touched Li Huamei's head a few times: "Good child, Ai family knows you hate you. Because Ai family also hates you!"

"Empress Dowager!" Bai Minghe knelt down quickly.

Queen Mother Sun knew why Bai Minghe's urgent cry was? She wanted to stop what she might say and shouldn't say. The current emperor is not her son, and some words are not good for her. She even causes her biological son to be under house arrest in Nangong.

"Bai Minghe, you are fine."

"Empress Dowager Xie praised that Bai Minghe was just devoted to the Ming Dynasty. Only when the Ming Dynasty was stable could the country be prosperous and the people be strong."

Empress Dowager Sun took off the bracelet on her hand and put it on Li Huamei's hand. At the same time, she said to Bai Minghe: "Bai Minghe, you know the purpose of your visit, but you will never agree to you."

"For..." Bai Minghe almost blurted out, and swallowed it back and said, "Please give me advice!"

Empress Dowager Sun waved her hand and signaled the palace maids and eunuchs around her to withdraw.

Afterwards, Empress Dowager Sun said: "Bai Minghe, you are a very smart person. How could you not think of it? Once the emperor and the minister are talking, if you still don't understand, there is no need for the Ai family to talk to you again."

What a great old lady, no, she should be a middle-aged woman.

Bai Minghe understood the reason why Empress Dowager Sun was this evil man. Now it was the era of Emperor Jingtai. During the Zhengtong period, those loyal ministers died and were demoted in the Battle of Tumubao. Can you feel at ease when you let these people come back now? He would not attack so many ministers, but he could attack his brother.

Royal history is always bloody.

"The Ai family wants to thank you for saving the grandson of the Ai family." Empress Dowager Sun's words were the truth, the truth was the truth.

"Empress Dowager, is it feasible to take a step back?"

“How to retreat?”

Bai Minghe knelt on his knees and walked forward a few steps away, saying at a distance of only one step from the curtain: "If you don't get reinstated, you will only be exempted from punishment. For some people who have no descendants or who have special identities, they will be exempted from punishment for a small official, or they will be allowed to go home to recuperate."

"Why did you do this?" Queen Mother Sun asked again.

"I have a few ideas. First, these people are really loyal ministers. They must always have justice when they die for the Ming Dynasty. Even if the empress dowager thinks that justice is not just for everyone, at least it must be fair in front of the world. Second, I really admire these people. Third, I want to take this opportunity to gain the hearts of the people and the army, and reorganize the army to lay a good foundation for future revenge!"

Bai Minghe said so much in one breath, just waiting for Queen Mother Sun to give her a response.

Queen Mother Sun also had her own thoughts: "There are more than a thousand lowly slaves in the quarry in the East Suburbs. These are all demoted military officers or the nephews of military officers. This palace is preparing to sell them to make them become criminal slaves and become domestic slaves. You can only buy them. Do you dare to buy them?"

Buying these people is equivalent to bringing the military officers or their nephews trusted by the Supreme Emperor to his side.

This is an extremely dangerous move. This Empress Dowager Sun must have a backup plan and has also set up a chess move for the future.

Bai Minghe thought about it over and over again, thinking that he was hesitant and buying was an opportunity, and there would never be any chance if he didn't buy it. If he could buy, he would be very likely to be suspected by Zhu Qiyu, the current Long Live Daizong. After all, these people are his brother's old team. Military generals are different from civil officials.

The most loyal people of civil officials were Confucius first, followed by moral articles, and to put it nicely, the people's livelihood in the world, and finally the emperor.

The difference between military generals is that they are always loyal to someone.

"Empress Dowager, I bought it. One thousand taels per person!" Bai Minghe wanted to say ten thousand taels, but unfortunately he didn't have that much money.

"It can be seen that you attach great importance to these people. You don't want these silver to be given to the Ai family, each one is a penny. The Ai family pays this money and take good care of the Ai family's grandson. That's it." Empress Dowager Sun raised his hand and signaled that Bai Minghe could leave. Bai Minghe did not rise up: "Mrs. Please pardon some people and add some people!"

"Absolute hundreds of people and grant ten people! This is the limit of the Ai family." Empress Dowager Sun finally gave Bai Minghe an accurate answer.

After leaving the palace where the empress dowager lived, Bai Minghe asked the father-in-law to send Li Huamei away first, and he went to the Nanshu study room. He wanted to meet the king for some things, and Bai Minghe had to tell Daizong Zhu Qiyu as soon as possible, otherwise it would be a problem!

Bai Minghe was waiting outside the Nan study room for Daizong Zhu Qiyu to go to court. The father-in-law whispered to Queen Mother Sun: "Mrs. Queen Mother, you may be so cruel to Bai Minghe. The old slave can see that he is afraid."

"What the Ai family wants is Bai Minghe, so they must tie him up. This little thing can't kill him, he's going to be tough!"

Empress Dowager Sun stood up and took two steps, and suddenly stopped: "Go and tell Bai Minghe and gave the Ai family a gift. Then what about the others in the palace, just ask him the original words."

Bai Minghe was thinking about the gift now and then, standing under the porch of Nan Study, anxiously waiting for Daizong Zhu Qiyu to come back from the court.
