Chapter 244: Different Paths to the Same End
"I see Your Highness, you are not such a person who covets power, why ...... Do you have to fight for that dragon chair?"
Bai Yanqing looked at Yun Qi and asked puzzledly. She could see that Yun Qi didn't really want to take the throne. That being the case, then he ...... And why do you plan so much?
"For the sake of ...... My mother!"
Yun Qi hesitated for a long time before deciding to speak and tell Bai Yanqing the truth.
For the sake of succession?
Bai Yanqing's eyes were puzzled, what does this matter have to do with succession? Could it be......
Bai Yanqing seemed to suddenly remember something, her eyes widened, and she looked at Yun Qi in disbelief!
"Could it be...... Does it have to do with successive causes of death?"
Yun Qi's queen mother, the cause of death has another hidden secret, Bai Yanqing knows about this. But what she still can't understand is that what does it have to do with the successive deaths and Yun Qi's struggle for the throne!
"Hmm!"
Yun Qi nodded, and secretly sighed in his heart about Bai Yanqing's cleverness.
"But...... What does it have to do with the successive deaths and whether His Highness fights for that high position?"
Bai Yanqing still didn't understand what the relationship was between the two.
Hearing this, Yun Qi didn't say anything, the matter has not yet been investigated, and Yun Qi didn't dare to tell Bai Yanqing easily! It's not that I'm afraid that she will leak things, but it's really ...... I can't explain it to her!
"Your Highness is inconvenient to say it clearly, so don't say it!"
Although Bai Yanqing expressed her understanding, she was still a little disappointed in her heart.
The two of them turned around, and finally got rid of the eyeliner that was staring at Yun Qi!
Yun Qi personally sent Bai Yanqing back to Baifu, and Mo Ran and Cai Xing saw that Bai Yanqing came back safely, and the heart they were carrying was finally let go!
Because it was noon, Bai Yanqing spoke enthusiastically, leaving Yun Qi a few times, but he didn't think that Yun Qi was not polite, but responded directly in front of everyone!
So, on the table of Baifu, there is another set of dishes and chopsticks!
After the meal, Yun Qi accompanied Bai Yanqing and Cai Xing to take a walk in the garden.
"Sister Bizhi didn't come today, so she must be busy in the shop!"
Bai Yanqing gossiped with Caixing.
Since Bai Furong and Lai Bizhi moved next door to Bai Mansion, but whenever Bai Yanqing is in the mansion, most of the time, they will come over and dine with everyone! I didn't see Lai Bizhi today, I only saw Bai Furong, Bai Yanqing was puzzled, so she chatted with Caixing!
"Listen to Madame White...... Miss Cousin has gone to the countryside!"
Cai Xing held Bai Yanqing and replied with a smile.
Going to the countryside? Lai Bizhi?
Bai Yanqing was surprised!
Since Lai Bizhi and Bai Furong set up their own doors, Lai Bizhi has been working hard and concentrating on taking care of the shop, wanting her and Bai Furong to live a better life! It's rare to see her, and there's still leisure to go out and play!.
"Today, Ziyue rests!"
Yun Qi on the side suddenly spoke leisurely and answered Bai Yanqing's questions.
I see!
Bai Yanqing suddenly realized!
Dare to be affectionate, after a long time, Lai Bizhi and Yuan Ziyue ran out to play!
"Caixing, have you gone out to find Lingyu in the past two days? Why is it that when he returns to the capital, he disappears without a trace?"
Speaking of Lai Bizhi and Yuan Ziyue, Bai Yanqing suddenly remembered that since they returned to the capital, Ling Yu followed Mrs. Qingluan, disappeared, and never appeared again!
Caixing frowned and shook her head, obviously, she didn't have any news of Lingyu!
"Your Highness, can you have a way to help investigate and investigate, and see where Mrs. Qingluan's mansion in the capital is?"
Bai Yanqing turned his head sideways and asked Yun Qidao.
"Okay, I'll have someone look it up tomorrow!"
Yun Qi nodded without hesitation, he didn't dare to slack off at all about Bai Yanqing's orders!
It was cold outside, and the three of them didn't go around for long
I felt cold under my feet, and I didn't dare to move any more! So, Yun Qi accompanied Bai Yanqing and Cai Xing, and went back to Nian Chu Xiaozhu!
Along the way, Yun Qi was silent, as if he had something on his mind! The same is true of Cai Xing, her brows are deeply locked, her eyes are wandering, it is obvious that she has something on her mind!
Bai Yanqing lowered her eyes and stared at the bluestone road under her feet.
The bluestone pavement washed by snow is exceptionally clean. On the smooth road, there are occasionally a few frozen places, if you are not careful, I am afraid that you will fall on all fours!
I don't know, if it's because Caixing was distracted, she unknowingly walked to a fork in the road! Bai Yanqing looked at the figure of Cai Xing gradually moving away, and did not make a sound to remind!
"Why didn't the lady stop picking stars?"
Yun Qi looked at Bai Yanqing and asked puzzled.
It turned out that although Yun Qi was a little distracted, his mind was still on Bai Yanqing! Noticing that she stopped, Yun Qi also stopped! Seeing that Caixing had walked on a fork in the road, Yun Qi was about to open her mouth to call her, but turned her head sideways, but saw that Bai Yanqing was staring at Caixing's back in a daze, without squeaking! So, Yun Qi couldn't help but open his mouth and reminded Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing stared at the two rows of shallow footprints left on the damp bluestone pavement, and he didn't say a word for a long time!
"Let's go!"
Bai Yanqing opened his mouth abruptly and said to Yunqi.
Although Yun Qi was confused, he also knew that at this time, it was not appropriate to ask more. So, he nodded, followed Bai Yanqing's side, and walked towards Nian Chu Xiaozhu with her, without hurry!
"That road can also lead to Nian Chu Xiaozhu!"
Bai Yanqing suddenly spoke, as if talking to herself, and as if she was explaining something to Yun Qi.
"Well, that's good!"
Yun Qi nodded and responded.
Yun Qi is not worried that Cai Xing will get lost, after all, this Bai Mansion, Cai Xing has also been in for many years! He just felt that Bai Yanqing's emotions were not quite right! If it had been before, Bai Yanqing would have stopped Cai Xing, but today, Bai Yanqing did not stop her! That's weird!
However, what surprised Yun Qi was that when he and Bai Yanqing walked to the door of Nianchu Xiaozhu, Cai Xing also arrived!
"Why didn't my sister call me? I've walked a long way before I realize I'm at a fork in the road!"
Seeing Bai Yanqing and Yun Qi, Cai Xing hurriedly ran over! She pouted and complained a little aggrieved!
"But, in the end, you still returned to Nian Chu Xiaozhu, didn't you?"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Cai Xing lightly, with no expression on his face, and then, in Cai Xing's puzzled gaze, Bai Yanqing calmly raised his feet and stepped into the courtyard!
The road that Cai Xing took was indeed a bit twists and turns, and according to the normal footsteps, he would arrive later than Bai Yanqing and them!
Inside the house, the ink dye had already lit the stove, and when Bai Yanqing, Yun Qi, and Cai Xing came back, the house was already warm!
"Ink dyeing, make a pot of tea!"
After Bai Yanqing entered the house, he instructed Mo Ran. Yun Qi is here, she is not good, and she will entertain him with white water again!
"Yes, Miss!"
Mo Ran answered while taking the cloak handed over by Bai Yanqing. After hanging up Bai Yanqing's cloak, the ink dye respectfully withdrew from the door and went to make tea!
"Sister, is she blaming me for going the wrong way?"
Caixing moved a stool, sat down next to Bai Yanqing, took her arm, and said coquettishly. She could see that Bai Yanqing's mood seemed to be a little wrong.
"I don't blame you for going the wrong way!"
Bai Yanqing shook his head and denied Caixing's speculation.
"Caixing, you see today, even if we don't go on the same path, but the place where we go back is the first small building, right?"
Bai Yanqing backhanded Caixing's hand in the palm of his hand, then raised his eyes, looked at Caixing, and said directly.
Caixing's eyes widened and he looked at Bai Yanqing with some puzzlement. She didn't understand what Bai Yanqing meant by suddenly saying this!
"The road you walked has gone through several twists and turns, and it is far away from Nian Chu Xiaozhu. The road that His Highness and I walked straight and close to Nianchu Xiaozhu, but why, we arrived at Nianchu Xiaozhu at the same time, you know, why?"
Bai Yanqing stared at Cai Xing's eyes tightly and asked her.
Caixing shook her head, she really didn't know that there were two different roads, one near and one far, why people who walked separately would eventually reach their destination at the same time!
"Because, I'm waiting for you! I slowed down so that I could arrive with you at the same time!"
Looking at Cai Xing's gaze, from confusion to clarity, Bai Yanqing knew that Cai Xing understood what he meant!
"I see!"
Caixing's eyes instantly added a bit of strange brilliance!
Bai Yanqing smiled, it's good to understand! She just wants Caixing to understand that no matter what path the two sisters will take in the future, in the end, they will still return to their original destination!
Different paths lead to the same end, it is Bai Yanqing, who really wants to tell Caixing!
"Miss, master, tea is ready!"
At that time, Mo Dye appeared at the right time, she held a pot of brewed tea, and respectfully put it in front of Bai Yanqing!
"Your Highness, try it! This is given by the father! I don't know Your Highness, the habit of drinking or not!"
Bai Yanqing stretched out his hand, poured a cup of tea first, and handed it to Yun Qi.
This tea was just sent by Bai Jingxuan yesterday. Presumably, he also knows that after the marriage between Bai Yanqing and Yun Qi is decided, this Yun Qi will definitely patronize Nian Chu Xiaozhu from time to time! He was afraid that Bai Yanqing was here, and he didn't have much good tea, so he would snub Yun Qi again!
Golden tea soup, fragrant! Yun Qi took the teacup and took a shallow sip, the fragrance of tea spread in his mouth! When you enter it, it is slightly bitter, and then it is sweet! Drinking, it's very refreshing!
"Well, it's good tea!"
Yun Qi smiled and took another sip, and Bai Yanqing was also very happy!
"It's good to be able to enter the mouth of His Highness!"
Bai Yanqing chuckled and spoke, and then poured another cup of tea and handed it to Cai Xing.
Caixing held the hot teacup and sighed gently, it seems that he just made a detour, and it was indeed cold!
"In the end, the ink dye is from His Highness's mansion, and this style of action has won my heart!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at the ink dye, and there was a smile between her eyebrows.
Mo Ran was just about to pour tea for Bai Yanqing, but when she heard her say this, her face turned slightly red, but she was a little embarrassed!
Yun Qi glanced at the ink dye lightly, and then said, "Whether the ink dye is good or not, I don't know! In the past, ink dyeing books were not waiting for me! I'm surrounded by big men!"
"Oh, yes? By His Royal Highness's side, there is no maid or maid who is waiting for you or anything?"
Hearing Yun Qi say this, Bai Yanqing immediately showed a little surprise! She originally thought that Yun Qi, as a prince, must be surrounded by handmaidens!
What's more, Yun Qi is now twenty years old, not to mention that he is a personal maid, even if there are a few girls in the house, it is not unusual! But when he said this, it seemed to be ......
