All the ministers had already heard their children come back last night to report that what happened at the banquet was vivid and dramatic, especially the dozen or so people who were in front and saw Mi Bessie's face. Bessie described it as horrible.
During the court, the ministers gathered together to chat again, and when Yi Yuxuan spoke, everyone's eyes on him changed.
A prince who is about to marry General Mi's daughter-in-law, that's fine, she's still the ugliest one among all the daughters-in-law!
This was obviously announcing to all the courtiers that he, Yi Yuxuan, intended to compete with the second and third princes for the position of crown prince. In order to gain General Mi's support, he would not hesitate to marry even the ugliest concubine.
Yi Yuxuan didn't know the rumors among the courtiers.
Similarly, Mi's father didn't know either.
Mi's father had just entered the court, and he also felt that everyone was looking at him in the wrong way, but because of his face, he didn't ask, after all, he couldn't talk to the civil servants.
After seeing Mi's father, the generals hesitated to speak, and finally stopped talking.
Bei Qiu followed behind Mi's father, completely ignoring the eyes of those people.
After coming down to court, Father Mi felt more and more that something was wrong.
Then he asked Bei Qiu, "What's the matter? These civil servants, what are you talking about while watching us?!"
Bei Qiu was quite perplexed, looked at Mi's father who was sitting across from him in the same carriage, and said: "Daughter has something to say, and she has never said it improperly to Daddy."
"That's right." Father Mi was a little unhappy.
Bei Qiu nodded and continued: "Last night, the second prince had a snow appreciation banquet..." Bei Qiu told Father Mi exactly what happened last night.
At first, when Mi's father heard that Mi Bessie was playing a piece of "High Mountain and Flowing Water" on the balcony, and everyone was fascinated and admiring by the sound of the piano, Mi's father stroked his beard with consolation.
But after hearing it, Mi's father's expression became worse and worse. When Bei Qiu said that Mi Bessie left the scene angrily, Mi's father slapped the carriage seat hard, and said angrily: "Ridiculous!"
"This is the end of the matter, and it's useless for Dad to be angry." Bei Qiu comforted, "Yesterday, all the civil and military sons and daughters of the Man Dynasty participated in the snow feast. Only a dozen or so people saw Sister Qian's true face..."
"Confused!" Father Mi looked at his brows and shook his head: "Do you really think that a dozen mouths will be closed? The second prince and the third prince have always been at odds. At the banquet, the two of them were swords and swords. The blade is facing the sixth prince, Yi Yuxuan, do you really think that what they said is just talk?"
When Bei Qiu heard the words, she also looked sad, and said: "What does Daddy mean, my Mi family has been involved?"
Father Mi sighed heavily, and said: "Your Majesty is old now, jealous and cautious, several princes are fighting openly and secretly, if it is really because of one Mi Bessie, the whole Mi family will be in trouble! Father, father will definitely This wicked girl will finish it herself!"
As he spoke, Father Mi's chest heaved and he was very angry.
"Father, don't be angry!" Bei Qiu also sighed softly, "Now that things are going on, Daddy might as well think about how to make His Majesty not suspect my General's House."
"Now all the civil and military officials in the court know that the sixth prince is about to marry Sister Qian, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate?" Bei Qiu still wants to keep the plot on the right track, after all, too much change is not a good thing for her.
"Father knows, I'm afraid the sixth prince has no such intentions, so let's procrastinate as long as we can." Mi's father said with a sad face, "Although the battle is stable now, it won't last long, and I'm afraid we will go out of the city to fight again. ah…"
"Dad, don't worry, my daughter can already take care of herself." Bei Qiu said seriously to Father Mi.
Mi's father nodded in relief, and said: "Fortunately, there is still Qiu'er. If all the daughters of my Mi family are like that wicked girl, hey, I am really worried about my father."
Only when Mi's father returned to the general's mansion did he find out that the whole news was not only spread among the court ministers, but he himself went to court for an hour, and everyone in the mansion knew about it.
After understanding, I realized that this matter has long been a laughing stock, spreading throughout the entire imperial city.
There were even rumors in the streets and alleys that the sixth prince married the ugliest and most unfavorable concubine of the Mi family in order to climb into the Mi family, which was an insult to the royal face.
Rumors are as ugly as they are.
Mi's father immediately asked another family law, and someone gave Mi Beixi a stick, which did not break her leg, but made her pass out directly.
The news spread to the Sixth Prince's Mansion in the shortest possible time. After Yi Yuxuan heard about it, he made up his mind that he must not marry this Mi Beiqian. Not to mention being so unfavored in the General's Mansion, she even gave a disfigured speech. It's not good enough for him!
If Bessie Mi becomes his concubine, he will become the laughing stock of the entire dynasty!
In the court, the battle gradually began to tighten.
A lot of generals have been assigned, and only two generals of the Mi family are left in the entire court. It seems that the emperor is intentionally or unintentionally evading Mi's father, and does not give Bei Qiu any real power.
This caused Mi's father to grow gray hair on his temples. Not only did he lose face in front of everyone, but most importantly, he also lost His Majesty's trust. Although he holds military power in his hands, it will inevitably be deprived of it in the long run. .
When Father Mi was very sad, Bei Qiu specially went to visit Father Mi's old friends and gave congratulatory gifts, hoping to say something nice for Father Mi in the court.
"Miss, I think that lord seems to be more perfunctory..." Lanzhi, the personal maid, was a little worried.
As Bei Qiu walked, she nodded and said: "I can see that he is perfunctory, but now, I have no choice. Dad is in trouble, and I have no real power in my hands. There is no place in the court, and it is difficult to rescue him." Daddy, now I can only hope that the entire Mi family will not be ruined because of a mere Mi Bessie."
"It's a pity that the real money is just given away like this." Lanzhi struggled.
"It's nothing to be sorry about, no, in difficult times, it's not clear who is the enemy and who is the friend." Bei Qiu smiled lightly.
Lanzhi was a little annoyed and said: "Miss Qian is too ignorant of the general situation, every time I have to help the eldest lady to deal with those things, it is too disgusting! Now the general is also dragged into the water! Why does the eldest lady have to speak for Miss Qian every time? If you want me to say, you should let the general execute her!"
Bei Qiu was a little surprised by Lanzhi's words.
Patted Lanzhi on the shoulder and said: "Okay, it's rare for us to stay in the imperial city for such a long time, I invite you to have a good meal, calm down, your angry face is ugly."
