My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire!

Gu Xin came to the palace and went directly to the emperor.

"Xiao Xinxin is here, come and sit down!" The emperor was reading the book, and there was another person in the room, whom Gu Xinmei had seen.

"This is Bai Feng, the guard next to Baozhu. You know Baozhu, she is the only daughter of King Donglin. In terms of seniority, you should call her sister." The emperor pointed at the person and said.

"Baifeng, a commoner, has met Princess Xinxin!" Bai Feng saluted Gu Xin.

Gu Xin nodded and told him not to be polite.

Without Gu Xin asking, the emperor explained the matter.

What he received this morning was a note from the prefect of Taizhou. He knew about it. Now that Bai Feng has come in person, Bai Baozhu, the princess of Donglin Palace, is worried.

King Donglin got sick a year ago, and everyone thought he couldn't survive it. But he got through it, and he recovered in the first month. He spent the New Year happily and played for a few more months. On the second day of May, King Donglin was found dead in a secret room.

Up to now, the Taizhou Mansion's office has not checked the specific time of King Donglin's death because everyone in the palace refused to let it go.

Donglin Wang's surname is Bai. The Bai family has four sons and one daughter. The daughter Bai Baozhu is the youngest, already thirty years old. She married into a noble family of the Qing Dynasty. Bai Baozhu's husband is the mountain chief of Jiangnan Academy. He is ten years old. He won the title of Tanhualang in the imperial examination years ago, but he did not serve in the imperial court. Instead, he returned to Jiangnan Academy and became a teacher.

The couple has a good relationship and has a son and a daughter.

Bai Baozhu was very worried about King Donglin's illness years ago, so he set out from Jiangnan at the end of April and took his husband and children to Taizhou, planning to spend the Dragon Boat Festival with his parents before going back.

They arrived on the first day of May and did not see King Donglin when they arrived at Bai Baozhu. Princess Donglin and her brothers all said that King Donglin likes to go out to play recently. Sometimes he goes there for several days, but the next day Donglin King Lin was found dead in the secret room.

Princess Donglin and the Bai brothers were determined not to let the Yamen people investigate, saying that they died of natural causes, but Bai Baozhu was unwilling.

However, she was a married daughter, and it was Princess Donglin who made the decision in the palace, so she was frozen like this.

Bai Baozhu went to the Taizhou magistrate in person. The Taizhou magistrate couldn't even enter the palace. Even the funeral of King Donglin couldn't be held at Bai Baozhu's insistence. The body was in the coffin. As long as someone came to express condolences, Bai Baozhu would say Her father died unexpectedly, and Princess Donglin and her sons could not afford to lose this person, so they asked the Taizhou magistrate to investigate, but they did not allow them to touch King Donglin's body.

The Taizhou magistrate had no choice but to report to the court.

Bai Baozhu was worried that the Taizhou magistrate was bribed by her mother and brothers. When the emperor issued an imperial edict, she might never know the truth of the matter. Therefore, she sent Bai Feng to Beijing to follow the people from Taizhou Prefecture to face him directly. See the emperor.

Because Bai Baozhu is the only daughter of King Donglin, she has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child. Her parents and brothers love her very much and give her the best. Even when they get married, they choose the best in the world for her. Man.

She couldn't understand. There was obviously something fishy about her father's death. Why didn't her mother and brothers let her investigate?

The more she was prevented from checking, the more she felt there was something wrong.

"That's probably what happened." The emperor frowned and told the story.

"Your Majesty, where is my family..." Gu Xin decided to go to Taizhou, but she was afraid that her family would not allow it.
