Chapter 537 A big conspiracy
"A Ran, what do you think of your father's idea just now?" On the way out of the palace, Bai Xingyan spoke to Bai Heran in a low voice.
He now feels that his relationship with this daughter is finally close, and the secret he has always kept alone has finally shared with him a close person. This feeling is indescribable and can make him feel much more relaxed.
Moreover, he felt that Bai Heran had helped him just now, and talking to Concubine Li Xian had already shown that he would stand on the same front with him. He finally didn't have to be bullied by this daughter anymore, and he finally didn't have to soak in water at night, and life was finally better.
Bai Xingyan was a little excited and continued without waiting for Bai Heran to answer: "A Ran, you know what you want to know now. There is really no way to be a father, you are really threatened? And it was really the one who seduced me at the beginning. I was completely passive and the victim! I can't understand why the Ye family knew about this. They used this handle to threaten the father for so many years. In order to protect the entire Bai family, they have suffered a lot in the years. And your brother, your father, doesn't want to kill his own son, they are all forced by them!"
Bai Heran glanced at him, but it was the question before the question, "What's your idea?"
Bai Xingyan was stunned for a moment, then he realized and said quickly: "It was the idea of killing the fifth prince. Isn't he trapped in the southern suburbs by you now? This is not a secret. My father has heard that he used the formation to harm you, but in the end he was trapped in the formation you set up. His mansion also dispatched formation masters, all of whom were concentrated in the southern suburbs, but unfortunately there was no effect at all. My father thought it would be better to take this opportunity to get rid of him, so that he would die without evidence, and it would be much better than to do something in the water of the blood test of the marriage. If, I mean, if I really make a fuss to the position of blood test of the marriage, even if my father's blood does not blend with him, if he is framed, the emperor will definitely have a knot in his heart, which will not be good for you and Zhenzhen."
Bai Heran laughed, "Do you still know how to think about Zhenzhen and me?"
"Of course, I am your father. Naturally, I hope that my daughters will be well and be happy after getting married. I can't make a rift from my in-laws because of this!"
Bai Heran's eyes became sharp, "You have killed one son. Do you want to kill another one now? Bai Xingyan, are you really not afraid of going to hell after death!"
Bai Xingyan waved his hand, "I haven't even understood how to control the afterlife."
"If you can't control me, I have to control me." She tug at the father fiercely, "If you want to kill someone, I won't stop you. As long as you don't kill my people, it's your own business. But even if you want to kill, it's your own business. Don't take me to be your executioner. Also, don't think that today's affairs can be forgotten. I can scare Concubine Li Xian, because she's stupid, and because she's been making herself so stupid over the years. So she believes in whatever I say. But what about the Ye family? Have you ever thought about how that happened back then? Have you ever thought about how the Ye family knew?"
This sentence is like a basin of cold water, which makes Bai Xingyan feel cold from head to toe.
Yes, how did the Ye family know?
"Could it be that Empress Dowager Ye had a spy in Yihe Palace?" He thought about it for only one reason. "I have thought about this question over the years. It should be that there was a spy in Yihe Palace. That night we thought we were unaware of it, but in fact every move was under the surveillance of the other party." Bai Xingyan became more and more desperate as he spoke.
Bai Heran nodded, "It is very likely. Unless Concubine Li Xian is a fool, she will not be able to tell her own words. The reason why the handle fell into the hands of the Ye family was that except for an old empress dowager, the Ye family had no other ability."
She paused when she said this, turned her head to look at Bai Xingyan, and suddenly laughed, "Father, there is another problem. The person who threatened you to kill my brother back then should not be the Ye family? What you said is the current monarch of the Gebu Kingdom."
Bai Xingyan was stunned. Did he say it? When did he say it? His mind was a little confused. Maybe it was when he was drinking that night. He said a lot that night, and then he drank a lot of alcohol, so many things he couldn't remember very clearly. He had said it clearly. Maybe it was what he said that night, but so what if he said it? Could it be...
He was shocked again, "A Ran, do you want to say why, even though only the Ye family knew about me, the person who threatened me later became the King of Gebu?"
"Yes, why did the King of Gebu threaten you later? In fact, this matter is easy to explain. It is nothing more than the relationship between the Ye family and the current King of Gebu, and you are a seeker in the middle. The two families joined forces to put pressure on you and constantly squeeze valuable things from you, including wealth, titles, and your performance in the court over the years. Father, in the court over the years, he has spoken a lot for the Ye family and the Kingdom of Gebu in the court, right?"
Bai Xingyan nodded, "Yes, I won't hide it from you. When Gebu's civil strife and the current monarch was in power, it was because I said good things for him in the court that Dong Qin did not send troops to suppress him. I played a very critical role in his success. Actually, now thinking about it, the reason why Dong Qin indulged his monarchy at that time was because the ice and snow melted in the Beihan land, and natural disasters arose. A large number of refugees there flocked to Dong Qin, and even several small countries united to occupy the city of Dong Qin. The court was focused on the small Beihan country that was already ready to move, and didn't care about Gebu at all, so they just let them."
Bai Heran thought about that era, it should have been more than ten years ago, and Jun Mulin was a young child. General Guo was in his twilight years and might have fought a war, but he could never be as brave as he was when he was young.
I heard that Emperor Tianhe occasionally had to command the army in person at that time, which shows that the lack of military generals in the Eastern Qin Dynasty back then, no wonder the foundation of the Guo family has grown to this point. After all, except Guo Wentian, the imperial court has almost no capable generals.
As for the rise of Jun Mulin and General Zhenbei, that is already a matter of the future.
Bai Heran's questions were thrown out one after another, "The reason why the Ye family likes you is because you have formed an alliance with Chunyu Ao, and there is the power of the Gebu Kingdom behind you? But have you never thought about when the Ye family and Gebu got hooked up? Chunyu Ao knew your secret, and he could find out it himself? If I said that the Ye family had hooked up with Chunyu Ao first, and then shared the secret and squeezed it out on you together, can you refute it?"
Bai Xingyan could not refute it because he might have thought about it over the years. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had been fooled. The Ye family and Gebu were in the same group, and they forced him to kill his legitimate son and Chunyu Lan, and later forced Chunyu Lan to death. From then on, they completely cut off the connection between the second prince of Gebu, Chunyu Nuo and Dong Qin. Even Bai Heran was left, and he has been in banned for many years, curbing her development.
But he couldn't figure out how much he could extract, so that both Gebu and the Ye family fell in love with him?
He wanted to discuss this issue with Bai Heran, but unexpectedly, Bai Heran took the lead and threw out a question that even more shocking to him - "Father, maybe we can be more conspiracy theory. Let's analyze how you and Concubine Li Xian got together back then? It doesn't matter whether you hooked up with her or she hooked up with you. What's important is that in places like the palace and occasions like the palace banquet, who gave you the opportunity to have an affair? The foreign minister and the concubine actually had an affair and could hide the truth for so many years. Do you really think you are so lucky?"
Bai Xingyan was already confused. He had thought about the previous questions before, and he had thought about them many times. But what Bai Heran said was too unexpected to him.
Could it be that his affair with Concubine Li Xian was also a conspiracy?
"No, I drank too much at that time, and she also drank wine, so..."
"Two people who drink too much can do things so hard that they can't even be born with children. Are you two gods?" Bai Heran was so angry. "Wine can strengthen heroic courage, but wine can even mislead heroic affairs. If you drink in a daze, you can avoid being discovered. I don't believe it anyway."
"But what did they do this for? The Duke of Wenguo's Mansion just has a free title. They are worth the effort to do so much for this title?"
This is something that Bai Heran has always been confused about. She was really a little depressed. She thought that she would let go of the matter if she had revealed the real cause of her brother's death. She would never be lenient if she was a kiss or a grudge.
But when the truth was revealed, she found herself falling into another bigger mystery.
Just like Bai Xingyan said, what are they trying to do? Is it because of the great effort to make the title of Duke Wen of the Herald? There is a queen mother above the Ye family, and Gebu even holds a country on the other side. As for the position of a first-class marquis?
There is also inside story here. Bai Heran concluded that the affair between Bai Xingyan and Concubine Li Xian was definitely not as simple as drinking too much.
Perhaps it is loneliness and emptiness for the two parties involved, but if there is really someone behind the scenes, things will not be that simple.
"I don't know what they are trying to do." Bai Heran said the truth, "But no matter what they are trying to do, I must have not obtained the picture yet, or I have not finished it yet. Otherwise, the Ye family would not support the superior Xiao Ye family, nor would they still not let go of you even if your title has lost its hereditary system."
Bai Xingyan was sweating again. What kind of trap did he fall into? How deep is this trap? Can he still climb up?
"What should I do?" Bai Xingyan's calves were about to get cramps, "Aran, what should I do!"
