Bai Zhi sighed, found a chair, and sat down, then said helplessly: “My two mothers, can you let me rest first?”

Seeing her acting like an old lady, the hanging hearts of Zhao Lan and Dongfang Wan also slowly fell. It seemed that there was nothing major event. If something happened, how could she be so relaxed?

Bai Zhi took a few breaths, then narrated what happened in the palace today, which made Zhao Lan and Dongfang Wan almost forgot to breathe.

Dongfang Wan angrily said: “Su Chun is really something. She thought that now she is the empress, she can do whatever she wants in the palace? Fortunately, nothing happened to you today. If those two really did such a wicked thing, I will be the first to clean her up.”

Zhao Lan also said: “If she is so mean and dirty, how did she deserve to be the mother of the country?”

Dongfang Wan coldly snorted: “The mother of the country? Is she worthy? Just wait and see how long she can sit on the empress’s throne.”

When Dongfang Mu came back at night, Dongfang Wan pulled her father to the side hall and chatted for a long time.

Hearing the story, Dongfang Mu was so angry that he broke a table on the spot. He wanted to go to the palace and ask the emperor for an explanation.

Dongfang Wan stopped him and anxiously said: “Zhi’er won’t let me tell you, it’s because she is afraid that you will go to the emperor on an impulse. I thought you can be calm. Who knows that I was wrong? I really shouldn’t have told you.”

Dongfang Mu frowned: “Zhi’er told you not to tell me? She really said that?”

Dongfang Wan nodded her head: “Can it be fake? She said that her grandfather loved her so much. Knowing that she was wronged, you will not tolerate it. But in the end, the other party is the empress and the prince. We don’t have evidence to go and complain to the emperor. She’s afraid that even if you tell it to the emperor, the emperor will have difficulty to punish them.”

Dongfang Mu thought for a while and then nodded his head: “Zhi’er is right. We don’t have any evidence right now. We can’t convict them even if we go to the emperor. After all, they are not ordinary people.”

“But how can I, Dongfang Mu, swallow this breath?” His eyebrows were knitted in anger.

Dongfang Wan shook her head: “Zhi’er seems to have a plan, let’s just listen to her.”

How can Dongfang Mu wait? He immediately went to the yard where Bai Zhi lived. Fortunately, Bai Zhi hadn’t slept yet and was sitting under the lamp and reading.

“Zhi’er, what should I do about this? Just say a word and Granpa will do it for you!”

Bai Zhi’s heart was warm. This was what her family. When she was being bullied, they would immediately stand up and unconditionally help her out. This was her family.

Bai Zhi smiled and pushed him into the chair to sit down, then poured him a cup of tea, and then began to speak: “Grandpa, I have nothing for you to do today. You don’t need to worry about me every time I am in danger.”

Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “No, I can’t do that. My granddaughter was bullied. This hatred must be reported.”

Bai Zhi nodded immediately: “Of course this hatred must be reported, but not now.”

Dongfang Mu asked: “What are you planning in your heart? Why not now?”

Bai Zhi slightly smiled: “Grandpa, isn’t Chu Feng always jealous of Chu Yan? He treats me like this, nothing more than wanting to get your support. He wants you not only to help him to become the crown prince but also to sit on the throne. That is his ultimate goal.”

These things, Dongfang Mu naturally knew, but he didn’t expect that these words would be said by a little girl like Bai Zhi.

“What are you trying to say?” Dongfang Mu asked.
