Chapter 522 Father, you no longer have a chance

Bai Heran's appearance was somewhat beyond Bai Xingyan's expectations, because she came with wine, each person and one jar, all of which were aged wines.

Bai Xingyan looked at the jar of wine she handed over. Although he received it in his hand, he really couldn't understand what it meant.

Didn’t you come to provoke a rioter? Why do you still drink wine? Could it be that it was wine that was cut off?

I heard that death row prisoners in prison are popular for drinking dead heads before execution, which means the last bowl of wine before death, which is intended to see off. Legend has it that after drinking dead heads, the beheads will not hurt, and the wine miser on the road to the underworld will be unwilling to provoke because of the smell of alcohol.

However, this wine is not the obligation of the government office, and not every death row prisoner can drink it. If you want to drink a dead head, you must first have money, and secondly, you must have status. Otherwise, even if you use money, no one will care about your idle business.

Bai Xingyan looked at the jar of wine in his hand and thought of the dead wine and said that he was shaking even harder.

However, Bai Heran did not mention what she said during the day. She just put the wine on the table, pulled the chair and sat on the table, and faced Bai Xingyan. The wine jar took the first sip.

Bai Xingyan was a little confused. What does this mean?

"Drink!" Bai Heran said, "There is no poison in the wine, and I still don't want to use poisoning to deal with you."

"Then... how do you want to solve me?" Bai Xingyan finally asked what he thought, "Aran, I know what you want to ask, but I can't say, I really can't say. Aran, I'm not for myself, I'm for everyone in the Bai family. Not only our Duke's Mansion, but also your second uncle's family, third uncle's family, and all the Bai surname people in the nine clans must follow him. Can you understand Aran? It's not that I don't tell you, it's that I can't ruin the lives of the entire clan!"

He covered his face and cried bitterly, "I don't want to kill my son, and I can't bear to leave that child either, but what can I do? They won't let me go, and we will not let our Bai family go. If I disobey, everyone will die. Including you and your biological mother. A Ran, I have no choice. I can save the entire clan by sacrificing that child. What would you do if you change to you? Should I leave one or the whole family?"

Bai Heran seemed to have not heard these words. She just pushed the jar of wine in front of Bai Xingyan again, "Drink."

Bai Xingyan looked up at her, stomped his feet for a while, grabbed the jar of wine and poured his breath into his mouth. After the injection, he seemed to be a little bolder, at least his body no longer shivered.

"Aran, I don't want to kill my son either. I was forced. You don't know the situation at that time, and I don't know how much the old lady told you, but if I didn't kill that child at that time, the Bai family would be in trouble."

Bai Heran's eyes narrowed. This father was still trying to get her words at this time. Old lady? This is testing whether the news of her was really learned from the old lady. If she nodded, it would be true that the old lady did know that he killed a legitimate son back then. If she shook her head, it means that not only the old lady knew the secret.

The Ye family had not yet entered the mansion, so there was no one else who could tell her this secret except Hong.

"I just returned home, and it was the Tenth and Ninth Highness who sent me back." What surprised Bai Xingyan was that Bai Heran did not answer his words, but avoided the matter and started chatting about family matters. "Ninth Highness intends to ask for your fourth daughter, and has already calculated the day after tomorrow. Father, congratulations, you have another daughter to engage in a noble prince."

Bai Xingyan shivered, and the cold face of the Ninth Prince, like a King of Hell, immediately appeared in front of him. This news made him very depressed. He already had a daughter who promised the devil of the Tenth Prince. If there was another daughter who promised the Ninth Prince, would he still have a day to make a breakthrough in his life? The two princes and concubines were at home, and they would not be able to suppress him forever?

In the past, Bai Jinghong was there, but he would not feel too much pressure. After all, Bai Jinghong's beauty and talent were all selected from thousands of people, at least no one in Shangdu City could compare with him. But now Bai Jinghong is gone, and he really has no confidence just by relying on his white face.

"Father originally wanted to choose a good family for Zhenzhen." Bai Xingyan said this after holding it in for a long time.

Bai Heran raised his eyebrows, "Why, my father thinks the Jun family is not a good family?"

"No, no, no." Bai Xingyan quickly denied, how dare he say that the royal family is bad, "I mean, although the royal family is good, there are many rules, and the disciple is too high. If she suffers grievances in the future, she will have no place to cry. My parents will not be able to make a decision for her no matter what. You know your fourth sister's temperament, you are used to being wild. I am really afraid that she will be unable to hold back her temper and cause a disaster to herself." He paused, then looked at Bai Heran with a kind father, "Is there any room for this matter to turn around? We can't harm your fourth sister!"

Bai Heran was almost laughing, "If I hadn't been your daughter, I'd have believed what you said just now. Unfortunately, I was your daughter, but I knew you too much, so father, can you believe me? You are not worried about Zhenzhen being wronged, you are worried about yourself being wronged! After all, the Ninth Prince held the Hall of Hell in his hand, which was almost the largest power in the East Qin except the court. Once Zhenzhen became the wife of the Lord of Hell, she would be not just the granddaughter of the Hong family. At the same time, there were more people in this mansion who could compete with the Ye family head-on."

She took a sip of wine and asked Bai Xingyan again: "Can power really make people crazy to this extent? Is it really worth it to pay such a great price to be closer to the peak of power? In fact, if you look back, you have two daughters to become the prince's concubine, and they are the two princes with the most powerful power of the Dongqin royal family. If you put them in someone else's house, you may wake up in a dream. As the father-in-law of the ninth prince and the tenth prince, who in the world dares to underestimate you Duke Wen?

Even if you enter the palace, the people in the palace will have to give you more thin faces to the two princes. If you can devote yourself to national affairs, if you can use your knowledge in the court, even the emperor will look up to you, and your memorials and suggestions will be more important than others. What is power? Isn’t this called power? With such two sons-in-law, if you want to walk sideways in Shangdu City, no one dares to stop you, and you are not satisfied? Why do you have to go to the big cake painted by the Ye family?"

Bai Heran was convincing Bai Xingyan, and also testing Bai Xingyan, and at the same time, he was analyzing Bai Xingyan.

She said: "If Bai Jinghong's plan was successful, one day she sat on a phoenix chair, what does it have to do with you? She is half of the Ye family, half of the family, but she is not the Bai family at all. How much benefit do you think you can get from it? Even if it is not Bai Jinghong, if you change to Bai Huayan, what choice do you think your daughter will make in the Bai family and the Ye family? How many bites can you take in the Ye family's big cake? In comparison, don't you think that Zhenzhen and I have a greater chance of winning? If you get close to me and Zhenzhen, don't you get more benefits?"

Bai Xingyan has been silent and has drunk a lot of wine. He admitted that what Bai Heran said is true, and he is not a fool. He also knows that if he treats these two biological daughters in reverse, it will be a bright future and a complete turnaround for the Bai family.

Unfortunately, everything was too late. From the moment he strangled his legitimate son to death more than ten years ago, it was too late.

"It's not that you don't want to, but you don't have a chance anymore, right?" Bai Heran stared at his father in front of him. "You have no choice, because you did a wrong thing that is enough to destroy the clan, but someone caught the handle of this wrong thing. This forces you to have no way to turn back and can only run one way out on the road paved by the Ye family. Even if there is the abyss of hell in front, you have no room for turning back. Am I right?"

She suddenly understood that in fact, Bai Xingyan did not only have no choice in killing the legitimate son, but also had no choice in setting up the overall situation with the Ye family. Or in other words, the person who knew the handle that was not only the current monarch of Gebu, but also the Ye family. Not only did they know that, they were also using the handle to threaten Bai Xingyan, and they had to deal with it for more than ten or even twenty years.

Bai Xingyan covered his face with both hands, not knowing whether he had drunk too much or was really touched by Bai Heran's words. In short, his shoulders were shaking and he even cried out in a whimper.

Bai Heran knew that she was right, including a question she had been puzzled all along, and finally had an answer.

She has been wondering since she traveled through time. The generation of Duke Wen Guo, who had been abandoned from the periphery of power, relied on his own ability to squeeze into the court again. This shows that Bai Xingyan is not a fool. He has his own ideal revenge, he has his own clear goal, he wants to revitalize his ancestors' family business, he wants the Bai family to return to the peak of his prosperity, and he wants the declining Duke Wen Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo Guo has become glorious again in his hands.

So he has been working very hard and careful in management. When he married Chunyu Lan, he already had a place in the court.

But such a person has become more and more biased later, even so he wants other people's children to inherit their family business and give up the hereditary Duke of Wen. This is simply unreasonable!

Bai Xingyan is not a fool, but he can revitalize the declining Bai family in this generation, which means that he is a brain.

But why do people with brains do brainless things?

Everyone said that he clinged to the Ye family, saying that he was not satisfied with being a minister, not being satisfied with being able to stand in the middle position in the court. He wanted to go further, want to be a father-in-law, and also want to work with the Ye family to cultivate a puppet emperor, and then become the man who controls the puppet himself.

But the same thing is said, Bai Xingyan is not stupid, how could he not have imagined that even if Bai Jinghong really sat in the back seat, how could the Ye family let him be the helmist? Then Duke Wen Guo’s title was given to Bai Haochen, what would he have left?
