Seven hundred and sixty-five, the heart of inquiry
"Childe, Miss, is this something you want to open?"
Bai Jin has been living in his own foothold in Beijing, although the mansion here is not as spacious as the north, and the things are not as complete as the north, but it is also more comfortable than living in the post station.
So after Bai Jin's men cleaned up this place, he moved directly into the house. Except for entering the palace to see Chu Ci and Liu Yue before, he has never gone out again.
Of course, it's just that Bai Jin didn't go out, but his people were more diligent than anyone else. When it comes to finding out the news, you can't delay it, and you can't be sloppy.
"She's looking for a reason to convince herself." Bai Jin couldn't deny the letter from his subordinates, and only smiled, "According to Nana's temperament, I won't have any objections to King Yi's actions." β
"What do you meanβ"
"Don't forget, there is another one living in King Yi's mansion." Bai Jin's eyes sank a little, and a smile overflowed from the corners of his lips, "Although the princess of the Qinhou Mansion was born as a commoner, there is no family power behind her, it may make the emperor and empress have such a special attitude towards her, how can it be simple?" β
"But it's also good for us."
Bai Jin's guard is called Qi Qu, who looks like a scholar, but he does things by thunder. He is General Bai's protΓ©gΓ©, and has a very good relationship with Bai Jin, and the Bai family also intends to pave the way for Qiqu, so that he can rise to the top in the future.
Of course, this is not a secret in the Bai family, and it is not a secret in the army held by the Bai family.
"Let's check it out first."
Bai Jin's complexion remained unchanged, but he still agreed with Qi Qu's words. They didn't want Bai Na and King Yi to be involved too much, but they couldn't resist Bai Na, and now that King Yi has a 'legitimate' excuse, Bai Jin can't take Bai Na back.
Zhou Yunxi is famous, since Zhou Yunxi treated Bai Na in the Yiwang Mansion, and gave permission to make Bai Na have no worries about her life, then Bai Jin will not act rashly for the time being.
Of course, Bai Na was cured afterwards, and this kindness will be recorded on Zhou Yunxi's head. Although there is such a medium as the eldest prince, Bai Jin also knows that if the Bai family comes to the Qinhou Mansion with a heavy gift, Zhou Yunxi will not stand idly by.
It's just a matter of whether the chips given are enough.
Now although they all say that Zhou Yunxi lives in the Great Prince's Mansion, they also know in their hearts that Zhou Yunxi is not 'living', but is under house arrest by the Great Prince in disguise.
Bai Jin knew that the people of the Qinhou Mansion did not act rashly, they were worried that bringing Zhou Yunxi back would delay Bai Na's treatment after bringing him back strongly, and after that, the Bai family would stand on the side of the eldest prince, so they would attack them.
"Send a message to the Qinhou Mansion." Bai Jin thought about it clearly, because he had been watching and watching, he had never interfered in the affairs between the Qinhou Mansion and the Great Prince, but now, it was different.
"Just say that I want Qin Shizi to make a promise." Bai Jin chuckled, "If he responds, the Qin Marquis Mansion will bring the princess back, and my Bai family will not interfere in the affairs of him and King Yi." β
"Childe wants to make a deal directly with the Qin Hou Mansion?" Qi Qu thought clearly, and said softly at this time, "Also, you can't let King Yi have the opportunity to repay your kindness." β
"King Yi can't make any waves." Bai Jin sneered lightly when he heard Qi Qu mention the eldest prince, "If he is willing to follow us back to the north to join the family, it doesn't hurt to let Nana marry him." β
"He will not want to."
Qi Qu shook his head, and there was a gloomy look in his eyes.
He has liked Bai Na for many years, and before Bai Na met the eldest prince, he was very happy with Bai Na. When he was young, he practiced martial arts, and it was also because he had Bai Na in his heart that he was able to grit his teeth and bear General Bai's devil training. Qianqian
Qi Qu thought that he and Bai Na would be together sooner or later, because General Bai and Mrs. Bai were very satisfied with him, Bai Na was also very close to him, and the Bai family was not the gatekeeper, he always thought that it was a matter of course.
But I didn't expect that-
"That's why you have a chance." Bai Jin smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Qi Qu's shoulder, "If he can give up his identity as a big prince and remain incognito from now on, you will have no chance." β
"But how can a person who can intentionally kill his own flesh and blood, and only want to frame the Marquis of Qin's Mansion, can be willing to give up the identity of the eldest prince?"
"Although he is King Yi now, he is still the eldest prince who can inherit the throne in his heart."
Bai Jin understood it, and he always knew that what the eldest prince wanted was the throne. wrote a letter begging his father to let the Bai family enter Beijing, also so that he could have someone who could support him.
It's just that the Bai family didn't come for the eldest prince from the beginning, and from the time when the queen died, but the eldest prince was not so sad, General Bai had quite an opinion about the eldest prince.
"Is there anything about my aunt?" Bai Jin thought of the woman he had seen when he was a child and handed him candy after he was punished by his father, and his memory suddenly became sweet, "It's been so long since I entered Beijing, is there still no progress?" β
"It's been too long, the insiders are dead, the people are missing, the people who are missing, and the rest of the people who may know about the events of the year are all in high positions......" Qi Qu looked embarrassed, "It's hard to start." β
This was said tactfully, and Bai Jin also understood it in his heart.
After all, it's not that it's hard to start, it's that there is no chance to start at all.
If this is in the north, there may still be some confidence to check desperately, but now it is in the capital. The interests of the capital are deeply involved, and if you are not careful, you will let Qi Qu fold in.
"That's it." Bai Jin's face was dark, and he said again after a while: "There is no need to go to the Qinhou Mansion to send a message, I will go there in person tomorrow and hand over a post." β
"Yes."
Qi Qu responded and did not say much.
He knew that this was the best way, there were few officials in the capital who might know what was going on at that time, and the most likely to know about them were almost all important ministers, and they were good friends with the Marquis of Qin's mansion.
Regardless of whether Qin Fengyi knew the cause of the death of the first empress, it would not be wrong to look for him. If he can negotiate with Qin Fengyi, he will help him find out his thoughts.
At this time, Qi Qu and Bai Jin didn't know that Qin Fengyi had already heard about the death of the former empress from Lin Qing's mouth. Although the cause and effect do not say that ten out of ten people are known, they also know seven, seven, eighty, eight.
It's just that it's still unknown whether they can convince Qin Fengyi and make him believe.
"Do you want to see Miss?" Qi Qu was a little uneasy in the end, although he knew that the eldest prince would not do anything bad in the face of the Bai family, but the person he liked lived elsewhere, and his heart was unstable in the end, "I ......"
"It's time to go, too." Bai Jin knew Qi Qu's thoughts, so he got up with a smile. For the people around him, Bai Jin has always been very talkative, "Otherwise, I should say that I am incompetent as an elder brother." β
Hearing this, the corners of Qi Qu's lips also curved slightly, and his eyes seemed to be filled with starlight.
"How do you like this girl?"
Qi Qu's appearance made Bai Jin sigh helplessly, and his eyes looking at Qi Qu were quite complicated.
