MTL - Delicate Beauty Becomes the Beloved of Four Brothers After Her Rebirth!-Chapter 362 Identify themselves
Chapter 362 Identification
She has mobilized all the resources she can mobilize, but neither the power of the Bai family nor the intelligence of Fengshadu has sent back any news.
Besides, what makes her feel very strange is why no one came to look for her after her mother left home for decades? Even when my father was sealed as a general of the country, no one came to ask even a single question. Everyone knew that my mother was from a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and she was a lotus picker.
It would not be surprising if someone followed the clues.
But no, they only found it after so many years after mother's death...Could it be that Bai Xianyu raised his head slightly, and there was a soft sound from the wall, "Could it be that they thought mother was dead and had no intention of looking for it, or did they find mother in person?" What's the secret?"
Whether the person who came to inquire about mother's news was her relative or enemy before mother's death, the purpose may not be that simple.
After thinking about it, half an hour passed without knowing it.
Bai Xianyu was tired from sitting, and also felt a little sleepy. She yawned lazily, then opened the quilt and lay down, the lights outside the house were also on, and it seemed that the cold atmosphere that comes with the imperial mausoleum was no longer there. Close your eyes and breathe evenly.
Tonight, the moon and stars are sparse, and the dim starlight illuminates the night of many sleepless people.
Bai Jingyuan and Bai Jinyan sat in a carriage and got off at the inn before midnight.
The silver follower led the carriage into the inn, Bai Jingyuan called Bai Jinyan to stop, his face darkened, "Have you really made up your mind?"
Bai Jinyan showed a firm look on his face, "Well, you know that it is Longtan Tiger's Den and you are going to the capital, so why can't I go?"
"We knew we couldn't do it. Among the identities of the few of us, only you can stay out of it. You haven't been an official in the court, and you don't have to be driven. I'm afraid that something will happen to us in the capital and you will be troubled. Now The best way is to wait outside. Didn’t my sister arrange a way out for you? Didn’t you always want to enjoy the happy life of traveling in mountains and rivers? She left so many things for you, whether you want to go to Daqing or anywhere , are more than enough, why take risks with us?"
In his memory, Bai Jinyan had never heard his third brother say so many things at once. He knew that according to his younger sister's arrangements, he would be able to enjoy himself freely no matter what the future would be like, but should he be allowed to watch them one by one? Jump into a fire pit?
"Of course I know that if I follow your arrangements, I can be happy and happy. Even the emperor can't do anything about me, but without brothers, without the Bai family, without Xiao Yu'er, I will never be happy for the rest of my life." Get up!"
Bai Jinyan looked at Bai Jingyuan, and pleaded word by word, "Third brother, you have already thrown me off once. I fell off the cliff in a hurry and almost died. Now that the injury is not healed, don't throw me away again." I drop it."
In front of Bai Jingyuan, he lifted up his trouser legs, and the scratches the size of his palm were shocking, "Third brother, there are many bandits here, if you leave me here, I am afraid the emperor didn't do anything to us, my own Life is gone."
Bai Jingyuan frowned, looked at the wound for a long time, before turning around, "That's all."
Bai Jinyan immediately beamed with joy, "Thank you, third brother. I will definitely listen to you when I return to the capital. Third brother, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west. I don't believe it. We all work together, and we can't get through this disaster." !"
Bai Jingyuan glanced at him, and said in a low voice: "Hush your voice, look at your frizzy appearance, you are the emperor's child when you open and shut your mouth, even if you are still some distance away from the capital, you can't speak so freely."
In the past three years, not only they have changed.
Emperor Wuxuan's control over the major families became stronger and stronger, and even blatantly placed his own people in the homes of important ministers. Everyone dared not speak out. Now that they go back, he will definitely not be on guard against them, so there is only drama Only by being real enough can we deal with it comprehensively.
"Yes, yes, haven't I been aggrieved for too long? If it weren't for him, why would we leave our hometown?" Bai Jinyan finally complained and changed the subject, "By the way, third brother, have you heard about my sister recently?"
"She has left King Pingnan's territory and arrived in the capital. Now she should rest at Fengshadu. When we arrive in the capital, Yin Sui will take us to find her." Bai Jingyuan was silent for a while, "Don't go if it is not necessary. Look for her, or I'm afraid it will cause trouble for her."
"Um."
Bai Jinyan remembered something, "According to the original plan, the second brother will come to pick me up and leave. Now that the third brother and I are leaving, the second brother has to ask someone to say something."
"There is no need to worry, the second brother is probably already in Kyoto now."
Bai Jinyan stared at him incredulously, "Really?"
"This is a letter."
Bai Jinyan took it over and took it apart for a look. It was indeed the second brother's handwriting. He smiled, "Didn't you agree to come pick me up? Why did the second brother go to the capital by himself first? He never thought of leaving alone in his feelings." ah."
Although Bai Jingyuan was worried, he was also a little moved. In the face of the biggest crisis in the Bai family for decades, no one, whether it was the eldest brother, the second brother, or the fourth brother and younger sister, wanted to escape. They all stayed behind and prepared to fight side by side. Father and mother are alive in heaven, and they will be very pleased.
"In this way, third brother, don't you think you want to drive me away at all?" Bai Jinyan reacted with an even bigger smile on his face, as if what they were about to face was not some dragon's pool and tiger's lair, but some kind of lively banquet, " I just said that the third brother may seem unreasonable on the surface, but in reality he still can't bear it."
Bai Jingyuan smiled slightly, he had received a letter from his second brother a long time ago, he would not leave Bai Jinyan here alone, but the capital is full of dangers, and he was also afraid that he would follow him and accidentally lose his life, since he was going, Then let him have a long memory first, and don't act impulsively.
"Kyoto is no better than other places. The more people are in a familiar place, the more likely they are to make mistakes. But this time, maybe the mistakes we made will be exaggerated, and there may be some trumped-up charges. Jin Yan, you have to remember , if the situation goes wrong, you must never disobey your elder brother's wishes." He instructed: "We let you go, you must never hesitate, and you must never be disobedient."
Bai Jinyan felt how serious he is now from his tone, and immediately said seriously: "Well, I will do what I say."
"Don't be willful, I know you don't want to leave us alone to survive, but if it's true as my sister said, our Bai family is a thorn in the emperor's eyes that must be pulled out, then if we fail, you are the only hope for our Bai family. "
Bai Jinyan's heart sank slightly, and he really wanted to break the heavy atmosphere with a playful smile like before, but now he couldn't squeeze out a smile, "Got it, third brother, don't make an expression of explaining the funeral, our Bai family It will definitely get through.”
Easier said than done.
Emperor Wuxuan stood at the pinnacle of great power. He was the ruler, and they were ministers. For the so-called righteousness, the ministers had to die. For the so-called friendship, their Bai family should be grateful to the late emperor and be loyal to Emperor Wuxuan. Don't have the slightest rebellious thought.
It seems that no matter what, he has ten thousand ways to easily trap them in injustice, and resistance is a crime, justification is disobedience, and every step is extremely difficult.
It's no wonder... Xiao Yu'er reached out to Emperor Wuxuan's harem early on. In recent years, the emperor's heir has not been determined. Originally, Concubine An's son, the fifth prince, was the trend of the times, but Concubine An was overwhelmed by Concubine Xu who suddenly appeared , the son of Concubine Xu Huanggui, the Eighth Prince has also become the object of currying favor to everyone in the court.
According to his understanding of his sister, the long-undecided situation of the emperor's heir must have something to do with her.
She probably had the idea of supporting the young emperor a long time ago, because Emperor Wuxuan was unreliable in her eyes, so she had already thought of changing to a new emperor.
It's not a conspiracy to usurp the throne, it's not selfish desires, the root of it is that if you are sympathetic, then I will be righteous, if you are ruthless, then I will not be arrested without a fight, if they are guilty, then life and death are all based on holy will, and you can punish them if you want to I will never admit it.
In the last life, Emperor Wuxuan succeeded once. In his eyes, loyal ministers and good generals were nothing more than dogs. They killed wantonly. The elder brother was too famous. He couldn't find his fault, so he secretly murdered him. The second elder brother rescued refugees many times, but was framed. Being a moth and notorious, he Bai Jingyuan devoted himself to the great Kui, but he ended up collaborating with the enemy and treason, and everyone scolded him.
In this life, it is still unknown who will win the battle.
Thinking about it, it was really hard for her to think about it, Bai Jingyuan sighed slightly, but at the beginning, Xiao Yu'er probably didn't want to go to this last step, but all of her secret planning, I'm afraid it will be the end. Still have to come in handy.
"Third brother, don't be dazed, go in and rest quickly. I heard that Emperor Wuxuan recently got a national teacher. He is very accurate in fortune-telling. He has figured out many disasters in many places. We will inevitably meet in the future. I don't know why. It's not really so effective." Bai Jinyan thought deeply, if it was really so effective, what should he do if he finds out what happened to them?
Bai Jingyuan was silent for a moment, "My sister never mentioned anything about the national teacher, and she must not be an important player. We don't have to mess around, and everything is as usual. Even if we really calculated something, is it just based on his one-sided knowledge? Words, can we be convicted?"
"That's right." Bai Jinyan was relieved, looking at the Xingzi in twos and threes, but he was quite optimistic, "To tell you the truth, third brother, although the future is unclear, I always feel that we can't lose. I heard that my father used to teach him If you want to be loyal to the emperor and love the country, I wanted to ask at that time, what if the ruler is a fool? Are you also loyal? If his orders are harmful to the country and the people, will you also carry them out? Isn’t that just helping the evildoers?”
Bai Jingyuan smiled, "You are the only one who dares to ask such outrageous questions at such a young age."
"Isn't this a reasonable question for me?" Bai Jinyan laughed, "Third brother is not a pedantic person. Third brother, let me ask you now, what would you do if it was you?"
"If you can admonish, you can admonish, but if you can't..." He paused, and said lightly: "After the allusion of helping Zhou to abuse, isn't there still a King of Wu who defeated Zhou?"
Bai Jinyan clicked his tongue a few times, and laughed, "Third brother, didn't you just say that I was deviant and outspoken? Look at what you said."
Bai Jingyuan said: "King Wu is brave, and I dare not compare myself to King Wu. What I want to express is that being loyal to the emperor is not necessarily right."
"Third brother is right!" The young man clapped cooperatively and said with a smile: "Third brother, the night is getting heavy, let's go to bed early and leave early, I haven't seen my sister for three years, I miss her so much. "
Bai Jingyuan also thought about it, but he only kept it in his heart, "Well, go to bed early."
…
At the same time, Bai Tanshen, who was retreating to the capital, suddenly received a secret letter in the middle of the night.
"General, a letter from the capital!"
Bai Tanshen took the letter from the pigeon's lap, opened it, and immediately frowned.
"General, is there something important?" The deputy general has long been his confidant, and in the past three years, the soldiers who followed him through life and death have already taken the embryonic form of the Bai family army back then, but their faces are much more immature.
The silver-white armor on Bai Tanshen's body floated and flowed under the moonlit night, flashing a cold and harsh light, "Give me an order to return the same way!"
The lieutenant general thought he heard it wrong, until Bai Tanshen's eyes swept over him again, he just cupped his fists, "Yes! General!"
"The general has an order! Go back the same way!"
"Back the way you came!"
Bursts of reporting and singing spread from the end of the army all the way to the end. The sonorous and powerful sound stretched across the long valley, scaring away countless birds.
In a short while, all the soldiers were ready to go, and walked towards the way they came.
The sky in the Imperial Mausoleum seems to be getting brighter early.
Bai Xianyu still frowned even in his sleep, and even though his face was covered with a mask, he still looked delicate and tender.
There was a knock on the door, shattering her unfinished dream one after another.
After waking up, Bai Xianyu's heart stopped suddenly for a moment, his eyelids twitched non-stop, and an indescribable sense of anxiety surfaced in his heart, "Strange, how come I have an ominous premonition so early in the morning..."
She pressed her hand to her heart for a while before appeasing the movement.
She still has a lot of things to do, so she can't be distracted anymore. The eldest brother and the second brother should be very safe now. The military power is still in the hands of the eldest brother. Nothing should happen to the eldest brother. It is estimated that they have not arrived in the capital yet. Needless to say.
After Bai Xianyu woke up and washed, she opened the door and found that it was Mo Yu who knocked. She had broken the rules by staying inside, the less people knew the better, otherwise Xie Xingyun would have a hard time trying to hide it from Emperor Wu Xuan, so there are no servants here Serving her, only Mo Yu stayed outside.
"Now go and check the blessing ceremony with me." She said and was about to leave.
Mo Yu clasped his fists in time, "Don't be in a hurry, Mr. Su. Just now, Mr. Su invited you to have breakfast. It's not too late to check after breakfast."
Bai Xianyu paused, suddenly thinking that he and Xie Xingyun had identified each other last night.
