Time-traveling Bastards Are Politics

Chapter 25
Bai Zhi sighed deeply, and stared out the window in a daze, the expression on her face seemed to be able to freeze the hot sunlight outside.Then, Bai Zhi took a deep breath, pretending to be flat and said: "Actually, I don't blame him for Qinglian's matter."

Xiao Qi looked at Bai Zhi and knew that the pain in Bai Zhi's heart was no less than his own.Qinglian and Bai Zhi grew up together since childhood and are like sisters.When he came that day, although Bai Zhi wiped away her tears before opening the door, her red eyes, bloodshot eyes, and deep and shallow tear stains on her face all made Xiao Qi aware of Bai Zhi's pain.

Xiao Qi was a little angry when he heard Bai Zhi's words, and his tone was not very good, but he was still so respectful: "Miss, don't excuse him. If you don't blame him, who should you blame? Is it your fault?"

After hearing Xiao Qi's words, Bai Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "Yeah, blame me. If it weren't for the fact that I still have a glimmer of hope, I wouldn't have let Qinglian do that."

Bai Zhi's words made Xiao Qi suddenly feel strange: "How could it be? You asked her to do Qinglian's affairs?"

"Yes, I asked her to do it. It was me, I'm sorry for her." Bai Zhi smiled bitterly again: "The matter of the Bai family started because of the party dispute between the crown prince and the seventh prince. You can keep the whole family. But in the end? The Holy One knew about this matter, but he didn't say anything for the Bai family. He thought that this kind of treatment was the greatest gift to the Bai family, but, for the Bai family, it was life Would you rather die?"

After Bai Zhi said that, she picked up the tea, took a sip, and continued: "Feng Yong and I have always felt that in this environment, if we remain neutral, the Feng Prince's Mansion will be the next Bai family. If we support one side, the other side will be suddenly defeated. Get rid of it. The Sacred Heart is unpredictable. So many princes and ministers cannot know. How can Feng Yong and I know? Only by finding another way to support the fourth prince who now wants to independently participate in the seizure of the rightful son can the Bai family be vindicated. Opportunity."

"Then what does Qinglian have to do with this matter? Qinglian, she is innocent. She is only 17 years old." After listening to Bai Zhi's words, Xiao Qi understood what Bai Zhi said, but he could not agree with this approach.Because of this incident, what is the difference between sacrificing a fresh life and the crown prince and the seventh prince?Would it be better for the Fourth Prince to succeed to the throne than the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince?

"Qinglian's death was something we didn't expect. We just asked Qinglian to deliver the news, but we didn't expect that Qinglian was so staunch. After she succeeded, she committed suicide that night. Even I didn't know until noon the next day. Yes. I don’t want to, if I knew, if I knew, I would never, never let Qinglian do it.” When Bai Zhi said this, the more she talked, the more excited she became, and in the end, even the hand holding the teacup trembled endlessly.

Xiao Qi looked at Bai Zhi, who had basically no emotional fluctuations on weekdays. Suddenly, he knew that Qinglian's death was indeed beyond Bai Zhi's expectation.If Feng Yong is like this, Xiao Qi may not believe it, but if Bai Zhi is like this, Xiao Qi is sure of it.Because, recently, Feng Yong has really changed too much.

In the past, Feng Yong was pure and kind. Even when Bai Zhi was imprisoned, she just begged for help everywhere, and didn't play tricks or take shortcuts.Ever since she knew that Bai Zhi couldn't be rescued, Feng Yong seemed to have become another person overnight. She began to befriend princes and sons, and rebelled against her parents. Even this Wan Qingju seemed not bought through legitimate channels.

He ordered himself to go out to do other things every day. He didn't know what to do when he went out. As soon as he came back, he made friends with the fourth prince and the young prince.How could such a person be his own young master?
After Bai Zhi regained her composure, she turned her head to look at Xiao Qi's thoughtful face, although she didn't know what Xiao Qi was thinking, but she guessed it right, and said lightly: "Feng Yong has matured recently, and he is also the same for many things. I can't help myself. That day when I saw you coming here with a burden without saying anything, I knew you must have misunderstood something. Feng Yong is still the same Feng Yong, but he has some burdens that he has to bear That's it. Which child of the princely and emperor's family can be pure-minded for a lifetime?"

Bai Zhi's words made Xiao Qi understand something immediately. Thinking of the recent changes in Feng Yong, he could understand a little bit in his heart, and Xiao Qi agreed with what Bai Zhi said.

When Bai Zhi saw that Xiao Qi had been silent, she understood that Xiao Qi still couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart. She didn't say anything more for Feng Yong, but just said: "No matter whether you agree with our approach in your heart, but now Feng Yong just lacks a reassuring person." Originally, after the incident happened to the Bai family, Prince Feng's Mansion was in great danger. Now Feng Yong supports the fourth prince. Although it is behind his back, people will know it soon. You'd better go back as soon as possible to see if you can help. What, otherwise, I won’t feel at ease.”

Hearing this, Xiao Qi thought that it had been half a month since he left Fengwang Mansion, and thought of the danger Feng Yong might encounter, so he slapped his head and said, "Why didn't I think of that? I'll go back now, Miss, take good care of me." Be good to yourself, I will come see you with the young master in a few days."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left Bai Zhi's yard.

Bai Zhi looked at Xiao Qi's leaving figure, her eyes a little moist.The only thought in her heart was that if Qinglian was still there, if the Bai family was still there, Qinglian would be so worried about her own safety.But now, there is nothing.If there was not a glimmer of hope, Bai Zhi would not be alive until now.

Bai Zhi sighed deeply, and said slowly: "Feng Yong, I really envy you, having Xiao Qi by your side."

Here Xiao Qi is rushing back to Fengwang Mansion non-stop, and there are rumors about Feng Yong in the downtown area near Fengwang Mansion.

"Hey, fried dough sticks, tell me, why can't I find a man like Master Feng?" A fish seller was scraping the fish scales, while teasing the uncle who fried fried dough sticks next to him.

The uncle who sold fried dough sticks put a fried dough stick into the pot, skillfully pulled it, and replied without looking back: "Cut, just like you, don't talk about anything else, you don't even have the qualifications to enter Wanqingju. What Master Feng?"

"Hey, you fried dough sticks, what's wrong with me like this? When I was young, who didn't say I was a flower?" The fish seller quickly handed the processed fish to the customer, then put her hands on her hips, Turning around and scolding: "You are so stupid, how dare you talk about me? When my mother was young, she was beautiful anyway. Just you, hey, when I was young, I was the same as now. I don't know what to think. It's over!"
