Chapter 37: Tangled
Bai Wanrou understood the entanglement in Song Yinhua's heart, why didn't she have any doubts?
It is true that the person who turned himself in was not the culprit, but what was the relationship between the man and his father, and was he instructed by his father?
She still doesn't know the answers to these questions.
Crucially, she didn't even know who could solve her doubts.
It must be impossible to ask Song Yuanlie back and forth, not to mention whether he knows the inside story of this matter, even if he knows, he will never tell himself for no reason.
As long as these questions poured into Bai Wanrou's mind one after another, she couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Really, really? But why? What happened to make my father choose to do this? ”
Song Yinhua's expression changed rapidly, in fact, she didn't know that she was wrong to blame her father.
It's just that she wants to know why Song Yuanlie chose to do this.
"Since your father is unwilling to speak out, he must have his own troubles."
"But if you think about it, no matter what case your father treats on weekdays, he chooses to pursue the truth and facts, is the reason why this time is exceptional, is it caused by other factors?"
Bai Wanrou spoke a little seductively, and her tone could be called gentle, this appearance touched Chen Ruzhi's heart for some reason, causing him to suddenly tighten his throat.
In order to hide his abnormality, Chen Ruzhi immediately picked up the cup on the table and began to pretend to be calm, but in fact, his eyes kept falling on Bai Wanrou.
It's a pity that Song Yinhua, who was immersed in her own world, didn't see this scene, she bit her lip and said hesitantly: "Then, should I go and apologize to my father?" ”
As soon as she heard this, Bai Wanrou knew that she had figured it out.
"Well, it's better for me not to mix in this matter, the choice is in your own hands, and others will never be able to control your thoughts."
What she said always seemed to be so funny that Song Yinhua, who was in a dull mood, couldn't help but smile.
"Okay, then I'll go find my father, ...... you two?"
She wanted to ask Chen Ruzhi how she was prepared, but after speaking, she saw that Bai Wanrou had already stood up.
"We'll leave now, don't disturb you and Song Sicheng."
After speaking, she glanced at Chen Ruzhi, meaning nothing more than that they should leave earlier, and it would not be too late to say anything later.
Seeing this, Chen Ruzhi nodded, "Yes, we have already prepared the carriage outside." ”
As he passed by, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and casually added:
"You still don't have to spend too much thought on this matter, Song Sicheng is in a high position, and there are often many unspeakable secrets, and his behavior is not simpler than that of us ordinary people."
After he and Bai Wanrou walked out of the room for a long time, Song Yinhua was still stunned and did not come back to his senses.
Are you admonishing yourself with what you just said?
If she remembers correctly, the dignified prince of Jian'an is famous for his taciturn words on weekdays.
Today, he would persuade a person who is almost an acquaintance?
Song Yinhua felt that she was probably still in a dream and had not woken up, she shook her head and pinched her cheeks again.
In the end, he went to Song Yuanlie with an unbelievable look.
At the same time, as soon as Chen Ruzhi outside the Shuntian Mansion got into the carriage, he realized that something was wrong.
Although Bai Wanrou was sitting next to him, her thoughts were afraid that she had already drifted out of the clouds.
But even if he didn't ask at this time, he could know that she was just worried about Bai Fengqi's relationship with the person who turned herself in.
Even though she never revealed that she was investigating her father's affairs, Lin Yi had been following her during that time, so it was difficult for Chen Ruzhi not to know.
The facts were indeed not what he expected, Bai Wanrou was indeed thinking about Bai Fengqi.
The tragic images of the corpses she had seen before were now in her mind over and over again, in stark contrast to her father, who she had always thought of as a symbol of fairness and justice.
She didn't know when her benevolent father had become a ruthless murderer.
At this moment, Bai Wanrou hoped that all this was her own imagination, and she couldn't wait for someone to tell her that the person who turned herself in had nothing to do with Bai Fengqi.
Whether she can clear her father's suspicion or not, she will feel a little better.
The only person Bai Wanrou could think of was her brother, Bai Qingting.
The chance encounter in the market that day and his experience of arresting him outside the library made Bai Wanrou feel that he must know something.
Can...... That being said, what reason should she use to meet Bai Qingting?
What's more, after really seeing it, how can you ask to get the news about Bai Fengqi from his mouth?
Thinking of these two points, Bai Wanrou felt that she was under a lot of pressure.
This is by no means an easy task, and it is not as simple as she imagined.
Bai Wanrou sighed, and her dejected appearance fell in Chen Ruzhi's eyes, which made his heartbeat miss a beat for some reason.
After a moment, she probably realized that there was another person sitting next to her, and her expression changed a little in a moment.
She had to admit that for a moment, she thought absurdly about whether to ask Chen Ruzhi about this matter.
Almost in a breath, she dismissed her thoughts.
The relationship between the two of them was already a little stiff by her, and now that she came to ask this kind of question, she didn't have to think about it to know that Chen Ruzhi would definitely not pay attention to her.
Before Bai Wanrou could be depressed in this self-depressed mood for too long, a voice suddenly sounded in the small space of the carriage, startling her.
"Are you wondering what the man who turned himself in has to do with your father?"
At first, Bai Wanrou hadn't figured out how he could guess his mind at once.
But in a blink of an eye, she suddenly remembered that she had seen Lin Yi and Chen Ruzhi stalking her.
I think he already knew at that time that she was secretly investigating something about her father.
Bai Wanrou sighed, she acted so cautiously at the beginning, but now she still hasn't escaped him after all.
But it must be said that his question did attract Bai Wanrou a little.
So she hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help asking, "Could it be that you know what is in this?" ”
Probably thinking that her question was a bit redundant, Chen Ruzhi turned his head and stared at the car curtain for a moment.
After a long time, he replied: "I have nothing to do before, although that person has nothing to do with your father, but it doesn't mean that it must not be his doing." ”
Hearing this answer, Bai Wanrou breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this answer is what I wanted.
In front of the threshold of the palace, the housekeeper waited for a while with the two girls behind him, and Chen Ruzhi was late.
Looking at the three people who were waiting there to greet her, Bai Wanrou almost stepped on one step when she went down the steps.
"You guys, what are you doing?"
Obviously, Chen Ruzhi couldn't quite understand such a battle, so he frowned and asked softly.
The butler had already expected him to ask this question, and bowed down to answer, "Lord Wang, these two are left behind from the group of people sent by the emperor, and they are waiting here for you to send." ”
Hearing this, Bai Wanrou raised her eyebrows, if she remembered correctly, the emperor should have asked Chen Ruzhi to bring four or five girls back, why are there only two left now?
With the doubts in her heart, she couldn't help asking: "The emperor sent so many people, why are there only two left?" ”
Hearing her voice, the housekeeper raised his head, a little surprised that she could ask, but he still replied in the appearance of a subordinate:
"Because I want to serve the prince, those girls were screened on the day they were sent, and then only these two girls were left."
Hearing this, the two girls who followed behind the housekeeper suddenly held their heads high, as if they were proud of it.
Seeing this, Bai Wanrou wanted to laugh slightly, but thinking that this was in full view of everyone after all, she finally endured it.
"Lord Wang, what about these two ......?"
After the housekeeper finished speaking, he raised his head to look at Chen Ruzhi, and the two girls also shifted their gaze and stared at him with bright eyes.
With such a gaze, Chen Ruzhi didn't know what he could say, and he caught a glimpse of Bai Wanrou who was smiling on the side, and he had a plan.
"After all, I am a person with a princess, so this matter will be left to the princess to manage, in the final analysis, this is also her duty."
Bai Wanrou, who was suddenly named, was a little unclear, but Chen Ruzhi's words, she had no way to refute them.
So she endured it again and again, and she had to force herself to say under the watchful eye of the housekeeper, "Okay, I will arrange this matter properly." This sentence.
In the end, the two girls were also taken back to the courtyard by Bai Wanrou.
"Miss, you're finally back!"
Before Lu Zhu had time to be happy, he saw the two people following Bai Wanrou at a glance, and his steps paused.
Qingtang, who came out after her, also stopped, looking at Bai Wanrou with some doubts in her eyes.
Knowing that her two girls were thinking about something messy, Bai Wanrou sighed, and said with a wry smile in desperation:
"These two are the girls that your young lady is going to arrange now, don't sneak around and think too much."
Looking at the scene of their master and servant enjoying themselves, the two girls glanced at each other, not knowing what idea they were thinking in their hearts.
Bai Wanrou was so thirsty that she didn't care about arranging errands for them, so she went into the room first and poured a full glass of water into her cup.
After a while, she turned her head to look at the two of them, her tone soft, and the content of her words was even a little tentative.
"I wonder if you two have any thoughts about your errand?"
Hearing that she took the initiative to ask her opinion, the two girls were obviously a little overjoyed.
They cleared their throats, and one of them squirmed, "Princess...... We want to stay with you and the prince and serve you. ”
Bai Wanrou chuckled lightly and stroked the tip of her eyebrows, she felt a little pain in her forehead.
These two girls don't seem to be deeply involved in the world, but they know a lot, and they even offer to serve by their side.
might as well just say that you want to be Chen Ruzhi's roommate.
She thought for a moment, "Then I'll leave the two of you in the mansion to be girls, okay?" ”
Although it was not specified that their identities were concubines, several people also knew about it.
At the same time, in another courtyard of the palace, Yueyi, who had just learned the news, was furious and lost her temper in the room.
"This Bai Wanrou, who doesn't know what to do, thinks that life in the palace is too peaceful, and she actually invites outsiders to come again!"
