Chapter 178: Bai Yanfeng's motives
It was a surprisingly hot summer day nine years ago.
The scorching sun scorched the Great Wei like a blazing fire in Kyoto, and there were few pedestrians in the bustling market.
Pedestrians are all in a hurry, picking shaded places to walk, for fear that they will be roasted.
The branches and leaves of the trees in the Marquis of Anning's Mansion were all wilted, and even the most noisy in the past was shut up at this moment.
Only one or two occasionally let out a miserable cry.
The hoarse cries made one wonder if they would die in the next quarter of an hour.
Ma's, Liu's and the others were all nested in their own rooms, and the ice cubes in the silver basin slowly melted, conveying the refreshing coolness to every corner of the room.
The Hou Mansion of Anning has prepared enough ice cubes this year, and there are all kinds of iced food to relieve the heat in each room, and they don't have to worry about running out of ice at all, and they are all working hard.
Because these ice cubes were all purchased by the Shen family with money, and the amount was very sufficient.
Shen is taking a nap with four-year-old Qi Miao in Haitang Garden at the moment.
The little Qi Miao's body was covered with a lake-blue silky quilt, her fleshy little hands were around her mother's neck, her soft little mouth was slightly open and she was snoring.
There was still a drop of crystal saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth.
Shen had already woken up, looking at his daughter's soft and lovely appearance, his heart was as soft as the fine brocade, and he wrapped her in thick happiness.
The peaceful, comfortable and happy afternoon was broken by Yao's arrival.
Mother Yun walked in softly and said that the Yao family was here, as if she was in a hurry.
Thinking that her husband went to Lingshan Temple with Bai Yanfeng today, now the Yao family suddenly came to find her. Shen Shi got up busily, his heart was beating like a drum, and he was uneasy for no reason.
She was worried about her husband's safety.
Yao, who was drinking iced sour plum soup, saw Shen come out. Hurriedly put down the sour plum soup, and didn't have time to be jealous and resentful of the Shen family, she just asked the Shen family anxiously, "Sister, did the third cousin go to Lingshan Temple today?" ”
"That's right, with Big Brother Bai? What's wrong? Shen's voice trembled.
"Hi, he...... Why did he go......" Yao stomped his foot hard. A look of chagrin and frustration on his face.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Seeing her like this, Shen Shi was even more worried and afraid.
Yao bit his lip, then squeezed out a smile. waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I just want to ask my third cousin for help, but I didn't expect him to be there."
That's it. Let's wait until the third cousin returns. I'll go back first, Lian'er is still at home. ”
Dropping this sentence, Yao left in a hurry.
Shen Shi was stunned there for a long time and didn't speak, not understanding what Yao meant by this trip.
Although Yao didn't say anything unlucky, she was still not at ease, so she called a powerful guard around her and asked him to immediately ride to Lingshan Temple to see if Qi Zhengzhi was thoughtful.
The guard came back in the evening to report to the Shen family. Qi Zhengzhi and Bai Yanfeng and their entourage were safe and sound, and they looked very happy.
Get this news. Shen's heart finally let go.
She thought that she had too much heart, and Yao's hurried running might be really difficult to ask her husband for help.
This incident was just a small episode for her, and she didn't go deep into the depths at all.
Even if Bai Yanfeng died later, she didn't connect these two things together.
Now with Yao's words, and thinking about Yao's behavior nine years ago, Shen feels more and more that there is a connection between these two things.
Yao may really know something, so he ran to ask where Qi Zhengzhi was in such a hurry.
And after learning that Qi Zhengzhi went to Lingshan Temple, there seemed to be a trace of fear and uneasiness in Yao's expression.
Why was she scared and upset?
Since Bai Yanfeng was born not afraid of the heat, why did he propose to Qi Zhengzhi to go to the mountain behind Lingshan Temple to escape the heat, was he just thinking about Qi Zhengzhi?
There is also Yao's attitude after Bai Yanfeng's accident, and now I think about it, it is also a little suspicious.
At the scene of the incident, only the little guy named Papaya witnessed what had happened, and Yao actually believed his words without the slightest suspicion.
She accepted Bai Yanfeng's statement that he fell off the cliff in order to save Qi Zhengzhi, instead of suspecting that Bai Yanfeng was pushed down by Qi Zhengzhi or other ways to die.
If you don't know Yao's personality, you may really think that she is generous and reasonable, but after so many things, it would be stupid to think so.
Why did Yao accept it?
It must be that the truth of the incident is far more serious than what Papaya said, and it is something that she Yao can't afford, so she doesn't dare to say anything else, and she doesn't dare to make a big deal about it.
This may also be the main reason why the Yao family didn't want Shen's silver in the first place, because they didn't dare to ask for it because of their weak hearts.
After a year, some things have become forever, Yao's mood calmed down, and she began to use the matter of 'saving people' to ask for extravagance.
After the Liu, Yang, Wu, and Qi Zhan left, the Shen family analyzed the matter with Qi Miao in private.
Because Qi Miao was too young nine years ago and didn't remember anything yet, even if she lived two lives, she didn't remember what happened at that time.
Now listening to her mother talk about these details, a guess gradually magnified in her heart.
"Mother, I suspect that Bai Yanfeng didn't fall off a cliff to save his father at all, maybe he wanted to harm his father, but he was accepted by God." Qi Miao said.
"With Yao's words in front, it is not impossible for you to say it." Shen's beautiful eyes narrowed tightly, and he nodded slightly, "I never doubted Bai Yanfeng before, because he and your father are close friends and relatives, he often comes to our mansion, and I know him well."
He is elegant and polite in appearance, and he is kind to everyone, and he is worried about trampling insects and ants to death when he walks, and no one will think badly of him. ”
Qi Miao frowned tightly and said, "There are only two situations now, either the Yao family has been playing tricks, and Bai Yanfeng really died to save his father."
Either Bai Yanfeng's motive for inviting his father to Lingshan Temple back then was not pure, and the Yao family knew the reason, so he was afraid and uneasy, so the reason why Bai Yanfeng fell off the cliff had to be investigated. ”
Shen nodded solemnly, "It's me who is too careless, Miao'er, don't worry, my mother will arrange someone to investigate this matter." Now that the Yao family is dead, the only person who knows the truth may be the little guy named Papaya, and my mother will definitely find a way to find him. ”
"Miao'er, before the truth of the matter is revealed, you don't have to tell your father about it, he won't believe it." Shen told again.
Qi Miao nodded and said yes.
In fact, she would never tell her father this without her mother's advice.
Don't say that everything is just speculation now, in fact, even if there is real evidence in front of her, her saint father may not believe it, unless Bai Yanfeng can crawl out of the ground and tell him the truth word by word.
No, even if Bai Yanfeng told the truth himself, the Holy Father might still wonder if he was coerced into telling a lie.
In short, the truth of what the Father has assumed will never be easily changed.
The Shen family arranged the rest of the matter, and Qi Miao waited patiently for the news.
Mother shot, much stronger than her. (To be continued......)
