Some palace people stepped forward to discuss with Bai Yanyu and wanted to take away the corpse of the fifth prince, but Bai Yanyu refused to let him go, hugged him tightly, and no one could snatch it away. The palace people had no choice but to talk to her in a soft voice and persuade her slowly.

The Seventh Prince, Jun Mu Nan, and Bai Heran stood side by side, looked at it for a while, and whispered: "It is rumored in Beijing that the third lady of the Bai family loves the fifth prince, I thought at first that it was the younger daughter's family's yearning for the prince, but I don't know how deep the feelings can be. Now it seems that your third sister's heart for the fifth brother is indeed different. He looked at Bai Heran again and sighed lightly, "The royal sister mourns." ”

Hakuzuru raised his head, only to find that the snow had stopped falling, and the sky had already dawned. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and if there is no rebellion on this night, the emperor and queen should dress up and join hands to go to the Temple of Heaven to hold a ceremony to worship the heavens. It's a pity that nothing can come according to the previous rules, and many traditions have to be destroyed. For example, a funeral......

"My third sister has a deep-rooted relationship, but I have repeatedly blocked it, because I know that they are brother and sister, and this is not okay. But with or without stopping, nothing came of it, and my brother closed his eyes and left us. Bai Heran sniffed, "Seventh brother, the Queen Mother is dead, my father should get the news, right?" ”

The Seventh Prince nodded, "Don't worry, Imperial Sister, this time there was a rebellion, and the Ye Family's Guo Family came out with heavy troops, and was wiped out by Imperial Sister in one fell swoop." There is no need for the old queen mother to live anymore, so it is perfect for you to vent her anger. It's just ......" he paused, his voice lowered, "Seventh Brother asked you a word, and you told the truth." ”

Bai Heran looked up at him slightly, not understanding what he was going to say to himself. She has never had much contact with the Seventh Prince, and the few times she met were only at palace banquets or other collective occasions, and she never said much. So I can't figure out what he wants to ask, and I can't figure out why he must emphasize letting her tell the truth.

"Don't worry too much, I just want to ask, did Empress Dowager Ye say anything to you before she died? For example, why did Duan Tiande, who was very loving to her back then, suddenly propose to reconcile and divorce, and marry a pair of children to your Bai family. For another example, why did the Ye Guo family conspire to have your father with them? Ah Ran, you should understand that the title of Duke of Wenguo is not enough to enter the eyes of the Ye family and the Guo family. ”

"It turns out that Seventh Brother wants to talk about this." She shook her head, "I want to ask, but she said that she won't tell me if she dies, Ah Ran doesn't lie, that's what Empress Dowager Ye said." Seventh Brother asked, but what do you know? She looked at him expectantly, although she had a certain guess in her heart about the purpose of the Ye Guo family back then, but it was just a guess, and it couldn't be true.

When the Seventh Prince heard her say this, he actually laughed, "It is indeed the temper of the old lady, and she refuses to tell it when she is secretly brought to the coffin, she thinks that although she is dead, the person who still wants to live will remember her from time to time." A woman who has been chasing fame and fortune all her life, I don't know whether to say that she is too ambitious or that her life is too sad. That's it, I'll tell you. He waved his hand and said again, "Ah Ran, the reason why your father was able to enter the eyes of the Guo family and the Ye family, and let Ye Zhinan go out and leave the house with two children to marry the door, is because they want to find something in the Bai family." Guess what? ”

Bai Heran smiled bitterly, "Heirloom jade seal, right?" ”

The Seventh Prince nodded, "That's right, it's the heirloom jade seal." According to legend, the Duan family has a jade seal that has been handed down to the country, and whoever gets the jade seal is in charge of the world, so even if the Duan family does not oppose it, the Eastern Qin royal family must take that thing as their own. Many years ago, the Duan family took the initiative to offer jade seals, but it was fake. The royal family once checked, and the Duan family did not intend to offer a fake jade seal, but because the Duan family did not know that the jade seal in their family had already been replaced. As for who changed it, it is unknown, in short, they have investigated for many years, and finally found out that the real jade seal has been circulating, and it actually arrived at the Bai family. ”

"So they tried every means to break into the Bai family and quietly investigate?" Bai Heran thought along this line of thought, "In this way, my father didn't know that the Bai family had such a thing. But since my father doesn't know, who can prove that the Bai family really exists? How did this get out? Is there any indication that the jade seal is in the Bai family? ”

The Seventh Prince shook his head, "I don't know." We also became suspicious after Ye Zhinan married into the Bai family, and then secretly investigated, only to find out that it was the Ye Guo family who felt that the jade seal was in the Bai family, so they let Ye Zhinan marry in and held the Bai family tightly in the palm of their hands. Ah Ran, you know, this kind of thing is actually a symbol, it has no practical use, but for the royal family, as long as you have it, it is more justifiable. On the contrary, if that thing falls into the hands of outsiders, it will be bad enough for the royal family, even if it is not enough to threaten. Just like the Guo family and the Ye family, the reason why they tried every means to get the heirloom jade seal was to wait until one day they rebelled and sat on the throne, so that they could have a reason to shock the world. ”

After he finished speaking, he smiled bitterly, "Ah Ran, don't you think it's ridiculous?" Your father pursued fame and fortune all his life, but he didn't know that the biggest fame and fortune depended on his own family, and he himself repeatedly made wedding dresses for others and contributed to it. ”

"So the Bai family didn't know about the existence of that jade seal at all, including my father." Bai Heran didn't know whether to cry or laugh, "A jade seal, causing my Bai family to be in such a mess, and in the end, everyone is dead, and I don't know the truth." If one day that thing falls into my hands, I will smash it to pieces, and no one will ever think of it again. ”

"That's the best, if you can really smash that thing, your father will be grateful to you." The Seventh Prince stretched out his hand, hesitated for a moment, and patted her on the shoulder, "Hard work for you, you have to bear so much weight at a young age that you shouldn't bear." As for the jade seal, the Bai family didn't know where it was, and outsiders didn't know it, otherwise Ye Zhinan wouldn't have been looking for it for ten years without a clue. Maybe the thing is not in the Bai family, but the news of the Ye Guo family was wrong, in fact, I thought so later. ”

"Oh?" She tilted her head and asked, "Then according to Brother Qi, where will that thing be?" Who released the news and falsely accused the Bai family? When she said this, she paused, and suddenly realized, "That's right, release a news that is so fake that everyone will believe it, and it will attract everyone's attention and firepower to the Bai family." Then the person who really owns the jade seal can be at ease, and he can watch Bengbu fight, and finally the fisherman will benefit. ”

"What a smart girl." The Seventh Prince sighed, "Check it slowly, I know that the fourth child has gone to Gebu, and when the matter of Dongqin is over, if you can get out of the way, you can also go over and take a look, maybe you can find some clues." ”

"Gobu?" Hakuzuru's eyes lit up, yes, Gobu. It has always been said that Hangan is the biggest threat to Dongqin, but the Hangan people have been living behind the extremely cold snow-capped mountains for so many years, and there has been no change except for asking the princess to make peace with Dongqin.

Until then, Gobu has not stopped......

"Thank you, Brother Seven." She sincerely thanked the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince waved his hand, "Don't thank me, I was stubborn when I was young, and the fifth brother carried a lot of punishments for me, and now I have nowhere to pay it back, so I'll pay it back to you!" He sighed again, raised his steps and walked towards Bai Yanyu, who followed.

Bai Yanyu was still holding the corpse of the fifth prince and did not withdraw his hand, the seventh prince squatted down and patted her gently, "Little girl, the dead are the first, people always have to be buried, and holding him like this will block his way to reincarnation, making him uneasy until he dies." You are a good boy, you should understand Brother Qi's words, let it go, Brother Qi will take him back to King Ling's Mansion, he will prepare the best coffin, set up a mourning hall, and when the time comes, you will come over again, whether it is a spirit or a crying spirit, Brother Qi will not stop you, okay? ”

Bai Yanyu was stunned, and asked in a whisper: "Seventh brother?" When did I have a seventh brother? When did I have so many brothers? ”

Her gaze was unfocused, and her head turned in the direction in which the Seventh Prince was speaking, but her gaze couldn't match it.

The Seventh Prince stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes, but Bai Yanyu didn't react at all.

Lin cried even more sadly, "Her eyes are blind, she can't see anything, she is crying blind!" ”

The Hong clan hugged the Lin clan tightly and kept comforting him.

Many people came outside the Defu Palace, it was the third lady Guan who arrived with the Bai family, and even the second master Bai Xingwu also came. There was a palace man who led the way in front, and when he came to the front, he said to Bai Heran: "The emperor is gracious, let the servants bring the Bai family over to see the fifth highness for the last time." ”

The white crane is dyed with a partial head, and its face is bitter.

What is visible? These people have never had anything to do with the five princes, and they suddenly knew that this prince was a child of the Bai family, but they were afraid that they had more or less resentment in their hearts, right? After all, without him, things probably wouldn't have gone so bad.

Sure enough, the second old man, Bai Xingwu, snorted fiercely, looking at the person who was held in Bai Yanyu's arms, his eyes were full of resentment.

The second lady Tan pulled him and signaled him not to act so obviously, but Bai Xingwu glared and shouted: "What do you know?" Don't mix these things, girls! Then he went to yell at Bai Yanyu, "A girl who has not left the cabinet, what are you doing with a dead man?" What a shame for the white family! The good deeds done by your father have affected a large family, and he should have died for this evil seed that was born, and he should not have been born in the first place. To die now is to die as you deserve, what are you crying about? Why cry? ”

Tan Shi was frightened when he heard him talk like this, and he couldn't stop him, so he had to ask Guan Shi for help.

Guan shook his head, pulled several children around him to Bai Heran's side, and made his position clear with practical actions.

Bai Zhenzhen felt sorry for her third sister, and stood in front of Bai Yanyu in one step, blocking Bai Yanyu and Bai Xingwu. At the same time, he coldly reminded Bai Xingwu: "The emperor recognizes this son, he is a prince until he dies, where did the second uncle have the courage to insult the prince?" Do you think that my Bai family's sins are not enough, and you need to add one? I didn't expect my sister to quit the enemy to protect her family, but it was people like you who were protected, it's really not worth it. ”
