Chapter 343: Backing Her Up

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Everyone was terrified.

Bai Xihe was not angry. Her tone was clear and calm, like the wind blowing from a mountain stream. “To raise a daughter like Miss Lin, Captain Lin is really well – mannered. ”

Her voice was clearly not angry, but it made everyone’s hearts tighten.

Lin Ruyue finally realized that she was in trouble.

She never dreamed that she would provoke the Grand Empress Dowager.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through her mind. However, compared to saving herself, she was still thinking about how things had developed to this point.

She had often mocked that girl from the countryside in the palace school. The other party never took it seriously, so she became even more unrestrained. ????????????????ℯ????d. ????o????

If that girl had fought with her from the beginning, perhaps she would not have been so smug…

“Grand… Grand Empress Dowager…”

She looked at the woman in the phoenix carriage pleadingly, hoping that the other party would forgive her for the sake of the Lin family. Unfortunately, she was going to be disappointed.

Bai Xihe said calmly, “Little Yunzi.”

The eunuch beside the phoenix carriage bowed. “I’m here.”

Su Xiaoxiao recognized him as the eunuch who had used a peach as a weapon to stand in front of the grand Empress Dowager in the peach garden last time.

So his name was Little Yunzi.

Little Yunzi said, “What instructions do you have, Empress Dowager?” “I remember. Miss Lin is a student of the Palace Academy?”

“Yes,” Little Yunzi replied.

Bai Xihe said, “In that case, it’s not appropriate for me to interfere. Go to the Palace Academy and tell them the truth about what happened today. There’s no need to ask me how the Palace Academy will deal with it.”

On the surface, these words were handed over to Palace Academy. However, the problem was that the Grand Empress Dowager had personally made an appearance. Was it certain that she did not want to ask?

Lin Ruyue panicked. She knelt on the ground and pounced at Bai Xihe. “Grand Empress Dowager… Grand Empress Dowager… ”

The thin veil of the phoenix carriage was gently blown by the breeze. Bai Xihe Yu was sitting on the soft futon and her expression was unchanged.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her steadily and thought of how frightened she had been outside the palace that day.

They were really… two different people.

Bai Xihe left.

In this deep palace, she could stand aloof from the world, but she could not show her vulnerability to anyone.

If she had been careless, she would have long been a pile of bones under the palace wall.

However, what she did not expect was that people would still see her most vulnerable side.

Thinking of this, Bai Xihe closed her eyes with a complicated expression.

The Palace Academy had two teachers in charge, also known as the Great Masters. One was Lord Zuo from the Ministry of Rites, and the other was Lord Liao from the Hanlin Academy.

They managed the Palace Academy together. When they saw Grand Empress Dowager’s favorite come over, the two of them were so shocked that they almost wore their official hats crooked.

If the Empress or Empress Dowager had sent someone over, they would think it was normal. Why did the Grand Empress Dowager, who never interfered in the harem, interfere in the matters of the Palace Academy?

It was not until Little Yunzi finished that the two of them understood what was going on.

After Little Yunzi left, the two of them looked at each other and sighed.

Lord Zuo of the Ministry of Rites said, “Old Niao (pee), what do you think we should do?”

“It’s Liao!” Lord Liao corrected him.

Lord Zuo waved his hand. “Sigh, why are you still fussing about this at a time like this?”

Hanlin officials loved to nitpick!

Lord Liao had a headache.

If the Grand Empress Dowager really didn’t want to interfere, she wouldn’t have asked someone to come over personally. However, Miss Lin’s background… was not low.

The four great military families of Great Zhou were the Wei family, the Qin family, the Su family, and the Leng family.

Correspondingly, there were also four civil servants’ families: the Wang family, the Jing family, the Guo family, and the Lu family.

In recent years, because of several incidents, the Lu family’s status was not as good as before. It was faintly on the verge of being replaced by the Lin family.

Among them, Captain Lin was the cousin of the Empress Dowager.

This was very awkward.

On one side was the Grand Empress Dowager, and on the other was Captain Lin and the Empress Dowager. What could they do to not offend both sides?

“It’s impossible not to offend someone. Choose one,” Lord Zuo said resignedly.

The Empress Dowager was the emperor’s biological mother. In terms of connections, she was naturally better.

However, back then, when the late emperor inherited the throne from his nephew, it attracted many criticisms. In order to stop everyone from talking, the late emperor did not dare to slight the Empress Dowager at all.

Emperor Jing Xuan carried out his father’s dying wish and treated the Grand Empress Dowager well.

The Grand Empress Dowager had done a beautiful job. She could clearly get the daughter of a small family to get out of the Palace Academy with a decree, but she had to push it to them and let them be the source of injustice for offending the Empress Dowager and Captain Lin.

Speaking of which, Lin Ruyue had indeed gone overboard.

Since the matter had already spread, it was inevitable that people would suspect that the Palace Academy was unfair if she was not severely punished. Even the reputation of the two princesses would be affected.

In the end, the two of them decided to expel Lin Ruyue.

Lin Ruyue waited in the classroom with trepidation. She knew that she had caused a huge disaster this time and would definitely be punished, but she did not expect to be expelled from the palace school.

Why?

It was just because she scolded that girl for not having a mother.

“I wasn’t disrespecting the Grand Empress Dowager! I was scolding that girl… In the small garden outside the classroom, she cried.

Not a single daughter came to comfort her.

Who asked her to provoke the Grand Empress Dowager? Everyone could not wait to avoid suspicion.

“Miss Hu! Miss Hu!”

In her panic, she saw Hu Biyun walking towards her.

Hu Biyun had also heard about this from the palace servants. She was about to turn around and pretend not to hear it when Lin Ruyue rushed to her.

Lin Ruyue grabbed her wrist. “Miss Hu! Imperial Physician Hu has been a popular person with His Majesty and the Empress recently. Help me plead for leniency! Tell them not to expel me from the palace school…”

Hu Biyun brushed away Lin Ruyue’s hand without a trace and said with a regretful expression, “Miss Lin, I want to help you too, but my father is busy with the Imperial Hospital… The Empress Dowager’s phoenix body is incompatible… My father hasn’t returned to the residence for a few days. It’s difficult for me to even see him… Forgive me for being unable to help.” How great honor was it to be able to treat the Empress Dowager?

It was unknown if Hu Biyun was rejecting or showing off.

Lin Ruyue looked at her in disappointment. “You just don’t want to help me, right?”

Hu Biyun opened her mouth. “Miss Lin…”

Lin Ruyue said excitedly, “I reprimanded that girl to stand up for you! You were the one who told me that that girl used tricks to snatch your Benevolence Hall’s business, so I stood up for you! Why are you doing this to me?”

Hu Biyun said in a low voice, “I didn’t beg you.”

Lin Ruyue shouted, “Hu Biyun!”

“I’m going to class, Miss Lin. Excuse me.”

With that, Hu Biyun entered the classroom without looking back.

The Lin family had risen rapidly, but Lin Ruyue was just a daughter of a concubine!
