Chapter 169: Defection
Disguising herself has always been Su Qi's strength, and when she spoke, she blended her guilt for her grandfather and her gratitude to Bai Yuwei on a face, which looked very sincere.
"Although he has left his hometown since he was a child, but Xiao Qi arrived in the capital, he didn't feel half a point of discomfort, this must be inseparable from his grandfather's love for Xiao Qi, as well as Sister Yuwei's care, where can Xiao Qi use what 'follow the customs', as long as there are close relatives around, where is Xiao Qi's hometown. Sister Yuwei, do you say yes or no?"
The corners of Bai Yuwei's mouth twitched slightly, this Su Qi's mouth was really more powerful than she imagined, but she easily solved the problem she threw out in a few words, and she also cheekily moved herself out to confuse the public, which was really angry with her! She didn't bring her to the banquet just to prove her identity to Su Qi, and by the way, to help her use her identity to gain a firm foothold in the circle of nobles in the capital.
But Su Qiyan has already spoken, how to respond? This is not a trivial problem for Bai Yuwei, if it is not handled well, it will damage her reputation as the number one noble girl in the capital. Bai Yuwei held back for a long time, and finally replied to everyone with a gentle smile, her temperament was still elegant and elegant, and the words she said were also extraordinarily gentle and moving.
"Look, what did Xiao Qi say, you have lived in Jiangnan for a long time, and it is normal for you to be uncomfortable, but don't hold back and not say anything in order not to cause trouble to the Prime Minister's Mansion and finally wronged yourself. Besides, although my grandfather has not officially announced your identity to the public, I and the sisters in the house will not treat you badly. Since you have entered the door of a family, it is a blessing from the previous life, and we should all cherish it. ”
As soon as everyone heard this, their expressions became a little subtle again, and it seemed that there was a lively scene to watch today.
How could Su Qi not hear the meaning of Bai Yuwei's words, didn't she just mean that the prime minister did not officially announce her identity to the public? I want those high-ranking ladies to doubt their identities and regard themselves as those women who went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pretend to be relatives in the past? She Su Qi would not just obediently let it go.
"Sister Qianqian, you should help my sister say something, my grandfather did not officially announce Xiao Qi's identity to the public, in fact, there is a reason, you say, right?" Su Qi suddenly rushed to Bai Qianqian's side, and took Bai Qianqian's hand 'affectionately' under the surprised eyes of everyone.
Bai Qianqian subconsciously wanted to shake off Su Qi, especially after seeing Bai Yuwei beside her move her eyebrows slightly, she couldn't wait to kick Su Qi to the ground immediately!
"If you don't want me to say in public what you and Wei Zongshu taught and received privately, it's best to cooperate with me obediently. Su Qi turned his head as if inadvertently, and said quickly on Bai Qianqian's ear.
Bai Qianqian's face turned pale when she boarded, not for anything else, the Wei Zongshu in Su Qi's mouth was the second son of the Taiwei Yan with whom she had been secretly corresponding, and he was also the person she wanted to marry! Only then did she realize that the unsigned letter she had received before must have been sent by Su Qi! Bai Qianqian didn't know how much Su Qi knew about this matter, but she was really afraid.
In her heart, a woman's lifelong hope is to marry a good family. But with her father's status and status, it is really difficult for her to find a man she likes, not to mention that she is only the second daughter of the family, and she is not very favored, and it is even more difficult to find a good family.
She will never allow anything to go wrong with her marrying Wei Zongshu!
"That's right, what Xiao Qi said is not wrong. At this time, Bai Qianqian didn't dare to look at Bai Yuwei's eyes, although her sister usually showed a very gentle and lovely appearance in front of people, but she knew in her heart that it was just a layer of skin in front of outsiders. stood up to speak for Su Qi today, ruined Bai Yuwei's plan, and saved her face, Bai Qianqian knew in her heart that she must be disgusted by Bai Yuwei.
Let's go back to the house and ask her for guilt! Bai Qianqian silently screamed in her heart that she was unlucky, and at the same time scolded Su Qili inside and out. Obviously, she also planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the banquet today to give Su Qi some color to see, but she couldn't do anything now.
The ladies didn't see the excitement as they imagined, but quickly dispersed to do what they liked.
Su Qi followed Bai Yuwei's side as usual, but the two of them had different thoughts, and the atmosphere was slightly condensed.
"I'm a little tired, Xiao Qi, you walk around here first, I'll come later. After Bai Yuwei smiled indifferently at Su Qi, she walked away with the maid.
As for whether she is really tired or something else, only the person concerned knows.
Bai Qianqian glanced at Su Qi, and just wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Su Qi again.
"You, Su Qi, don't be too aggressive. I don't care how you learned about the matter between me and Brother Zong Shu, in short, Miss Ben warned you that it was best not to talk nonsense, otherwise, otherwise-" Bai Qianqian was so angry that her neck turned red, and she struggled hard a few times but couldn't break free of Su Qi's hand.
Seeing this, the maid standing on the side wanted to come to help, but was stopped by the red calyx and Cui Luo without a trace.
"Otherwise, what? Do you want your father and mother to be polite to me, or do you want your eldest sister to administer justice for you? Bai Qianqian, with your understanding of Bai Yuwei, do you think she will still trust someone who turned against her and betrayed her? Now you have only one choice, and that is to join my camp. Su Qi said it easily, but her words weighed on Bai Qianqian's heart like a thousand pounds of stone.
"You don't have to be alarmist here, I won't believe you anyway, and you don't want me to do anything for you!"
Su Qi chuckled, looking at Bai Qianqian's eyes with a little sympathy, "Bai Qianqian, seriously, I really feel a little sorry for you." You say, 'How can there be anyone in this world who is as stupid as you?'
Bai Qianqian's face became more and more ugly, "What do you mean by that?"
"Nature is literal. Looking at Bai Qianqian's puzzled appearance, Su Qi continued as if kindly: "Tell me about you, you have been attached to Bai Yuwei for so many years, in addition to setting off her intelligence and beauty, what else have you done? ”
Without waiting for Bai Qianqian to refute, Su Qi said again: "Do you think that your reputation in the capital is not as good as Bai Yuwei, when others mention the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, they never take you Bai Qianqian in their eyes? Who do you think makes you mediocre and difficult to find a good husband?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
"Think about it, if it weren't for Bai Yuwei stealing your limelight everywhere, how would you be where you are today? Maybe you would have been famous in the capital a long time ago! If it weren't for her taking the title of the first talented woman in the capital, and relying on her identity as the eldest sister to suppress you everywhere, where would you end up where you are now?" Su Qi looked directly into Bai Qianqian's eyes and said word by word.
