Chapter 501: How Is Bai Wutong Worthy!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chu Mingxuan deliberately wanted to let him understand how strong the toxicity of this poison was. After seven days, Bai Shining experienced a pain that was thousands of times worse than cramps, bones, and flesh scraping.

No one wanted to experience such pain a second time.

Bai Shining did not want to die yet, so he could only listen obediently.

Even if Chu Mingxuan asked him to kill his own grandson and daughter, he could only agree obediently like a dog.

In the imperial study, Emperor Ling Hui had a domineering aura and a sharp gaze.

Bai Shining knelt at his feet and did not even dare to breathe heavily.

After reading the news reported by the Imperial Guards, Emperor Ling Hui was very disdainful of Bai Shining. “How did your eldest daughter disappear?”

Bai Shining replied shakily, “Not long after 1 went to the Jingnan residence to take office, I sent someone to pick up my family. On the way, they encountered bandits. Shen’er unintentionally fell off the cliff and her whereabouts are unknown.”

Emperor Ling Hui raised his eyebrows. “In that case, why hasn’t your second wife and concubine’s daughter disappeared?”

After Bai Shining helped Jia Yuqin become the legitimate wife, Bai Xinshui was the legitimate daughter. Emperor Ling Hui called her a concubine’s daughter. It was obvious that he suspected that Jia Yuqin and Bai Xinshui were dissatisfied with their positions and even suspected that they were plotting to harm the eldest daughter.

Bai Shining trembled and hurriedly explained, “They were lucky to escape. It’s all my eldest daughter’s misfortune.”

Emperor Ling Hui’s gaze suddenly turned cold. He doted on his concubine and killed his wife, allowing his legitimate daughter to be humiliated. In the end, he only claimed that it was his daughter’s misfortune.

Emperor Ling Hui was about to curse when he thought of himself. Although he had no choice but to let the mother and son down, he was also not a good person. He changed his words. “Do you know why I’m looking for you?”

Bai Shining pretended not to know. “I’m afraid not.”

The corners of Emperor Ling Hui’s mouth curled up. “You’re quite stupid. Fortunately, you have a daughter who became the emperor.”

Bai Shining had long known, but when he heard it from the emperor again, he could not help but feel excited.

His daughter was the emperor, so wasn’t he the emperor emeritus, an existence even more noble than Emperor Linghui?

A flash of joy flashed across Bai Shining’s eyes. Emperor Ling Hui easily captured it and sneered, “Are you happy, Emperor Emeritus?”

Bai Shining’s expression paused and he hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. “How can that unfilial daughter of mine become the Great Empress? Please investigate carefully, Your Majesty.”

He really felt that Chu Mingxuan and Emperor Ling Hui might have made a mistake.

Emperor Ling Hui stared at him. He really could not figure out how Bai Shining could have nurtured a Great Empress apart from his slightly handsome face.

However, this was the truth. Emperor Ling Hui could not be bothered to waste his breath. “I only want you to convince your daughter to bring my family back!”

Emperor Ling Hui sent Bai Shining to find out if Bai Wutong would forgive Bai Shining.

If an idiot like Bai Shining could be forgiven, would he still have a chance to make up for it?

Bai Shining’s heart trembled. He did not dare to deny that his eldest daughter was not the Great Empress of the Southern frontier. “1 accept the order.”

Just as Bai Shining thought that he could leave, Emperor Ling Hui suddenly stopped him. “How is my eldest daughter-in-law getting along with your concubine’s daughter?”

How did they get along? Bai Shining’s mind was filled with images of Bai Wutong being submissive and useless in front of them. He could not figure out what Emperor Ling Hui meant. Chu Mingxuan was clearly the child of Consort Chu and had the support of his entire family. However, Emperor Ling Hui seemed to value a bastard of unknown origin very much and even wanted to support Bai Wutong.

Bai Shining braced himself and replied respectfully, “Your Majesty, they got along extremely well. There has never been any quarrel.”

His expression was sincere. If Emperor Ling Hui hadn’t seen the news that the guards had found, he would have believed him.

Emperor Ling Hui smiled. “In that case, I’ll allow your family to reunite. Let your concubine’s daughter and the second branch go with you.”

Bai Shining was suddenly stunned. As his Madam, it was only right for Jia Yuqin to follow him. However, why was Bai Xinshui, who had already become the Eldest Prince’s secondary consort, following him?

Bai Shining took a while before he stammered, “But, the Eldest Prince…”

Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Ling Hui told him, “He’s gone to the temple. He doesn’t need your daughter to serve him. Go to the southern frontier. Aren’t the sisters very close? Help me persuade her.”

His words sounded like they were filled with good intentions.

Chu Mingxuan had already been sent to the temple. Emperor Ling Hui had given the sisters a chance to meet, so Bai Shining did not dare to refuse. “Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty…”

He stood up and wanted to leave, but Emperor Ling Hui stopped him again.

In an instant, Bai Shining’s hair stood on end.

No way, no way. Could it be that Emperor Linghui…

Emperor Ling Hui really wanted to facilitate a family reunion. “I heard that your son is also very “close” to her. Let him tag along. Anyway, his studies are not good, so he can go and broaden his horizons.”

When Bai Shining heard this, he almost lost his footing.

He knew very well how close Jia Yuqin and the others were to Bai Wutong.

Although every country had a rule not to kill envoys, if Bai Wutong’s disappearance was really related to Jia Yuqin, they would be in danger.

Bai Shining was terrified, but when he thought about how he was Bai Wutong’s father and how she was the most obedient and should not disobey him, he swallowed his heart and calmed down for a moment.

When Bai Shining returned to the residence from the palace, Jia Yuqin thought that the emperor was looking for him for something good. She was grabbed into the room by Bai Shining who questioned her, “Did you have anything to do with Shen’er’s disappearance back then?”

When she was suddenly asked about Bai Wutong, who should have turned into bones, Jia Yuqin was shocked and denied with all her might, “Master, what nonsense are you talking about? How can her disappearance have anything to do with me? If Master doesn’t believe me, there are still witnesses in the residence. She was forced down the cliff by bandits.”

Bai Shining stared into her eyes and clenched his fists tightly. “It better be.”

Even if she really did it, she should have wiped her butt clean after so many years.

Jia Yuqin forced herself to calm down and carefully probed, “Cousin, why are you asking this out of the blue?”

Bai Shining looked at her coldly. “You’ll know soon.”

When Jia Yuqin heard his words, she panicked even more.

She hurriedly sent someone to seek an audience with the Eldest Prince’s secondary consort. Unexpectedly, a moment later, Bai Xinshui returned to the residence in a hurry.

Bai Xinshui asked anxiously, “Father, is the imperial edict real?”

Bai Shining said coldly to his beloved youngest daughter, “How can the imperial edict be fake!”

Jia Yuqin was at a loss. “What’s wrong?”

Bai Xinshui suddenly sat on the chair in disbelief. Bai Wutong, who had been submissive and did not even dare to fart in front of her back then, had become the Great Empress of the Southern frontier in just a few years.

Even the slut who pimped at the corner of the street looked more like the Great Empress than her.

Yet she was living a life worse than death.. How was Bai Wutong worthy!
