Chapter 522

Bai Helian's appearance is somewhat beyond Bai Xingyan's expectation, because she comes with wine, one person and one jar, all of which are old wine.

Bai Xingyan looked at the wine jar she handed over. Although she received it, she couldn't understand the meaning of it.

Didn't you come to ask for a crime? Why give it back? Is it decapitation?

It's said that decapitation wine is popular among prisoners before execution, which means the last bowl of wine before death, intended to see them off. It's said that after drinking decapitation wine, it doesn't hurt to cut off one's head, and the wine messengers on huangquan road are not willing to be provoked because of the wine gas.

However, this wine is not the duty of the government, not to mention that every condemned person can drink it. If you want to have decapitation wine, you must first have silver and then you must have status. Otherwise, even if you use silver, no one cares about your business.

Bai Xingyan looked at the wine jar in his hand and thought of decapitation wine. His body trembled even more.

However, Bai Helian didn't mention what she said during the day. She just put the wine on the table, pulled the chair and sat down on the table, face to face with Bai Xingyan. In one fell swoop, she took the lead in drinking.

Bai Xingyan is a little confused. What does that mean?

"Drink it!" White crane dye said, "there is no poison in the wine, I also disdain to use poison means to solve you."

"So... What do you want to do with me?" Bai Xingyan finally asked what he thought, "ah ran, I know what you want to ask, but I can't say, I really can't say. A ran, I'm not for myself, I'm for everyone in the Bai family. Not only our government, but also your second uncle's family and third uncle's family. All the Bai people in the nine ethnic groups have to lose their heads. Can you understand ah ran? It's not that I don't tell you, it's that I can't bury the whole family! "

When he said this, he hid his face and cried bitterly, "I don't want to kill my son, and I don't want to give up that child, but what can I do? They won't let me go. They won't let our Bai family go. If I don't obey, everyone will die. Including you and your biological mother. A ran, I can't help it. I can save the whole family by sacrificing that child. What would you do if it were you? One or the whole family? "

White crane dye didn't seem to hear these words, she just pushed the wine jar to Bai Xingyan, "drink."

Bai Xingyan looked up at her. After a while, he stamped his foot, grabbed the wine jar and poured a strong breath into his mouth. After the irrigation, the courage seems to be greater, at least the body is no longer shaking.

"Ah ran, 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 dire straits."

Baihecan's eyes narrowed, and the father, at this time, still talked to her. Old lady? This is to test whether she really got the news from the old lady. If she nodded, it would be true that the old lady did know that he had killed a legitimate son. If she shook her head, it would mean that the old lady was not the only one who knew the secret.

At that time, the Ye family had not entered the house, and no one else could tell her the secret except Hong.

"I've just come back to the palace. My ten and nine Highnesses sent me back." To Bai Xingyan's surprise, Bai Henan didn't answer him. Instead, he avoided the incident and began to nag“ Your highness intends to ask for your fourth daughter. He has worked out the date of your appointment. It will be the day after tomorrow. Father, Congratulations, you have another daughter to be engaged to the prince. "

Bai Xingyan shivered, and the cold face of the ninth prince appeared immediately. This news makes him very depressed. He already has a daughter promised to the tenth prince. If he has another daughter promised to the ninth prince, will he be able to get ahead in his life? Two princes are imperial concubines at home, still can't pressure him forever can't turn over?

Once upon a time, when Bai Jinghong was there, he would not feel too much pressure. After all, Bai Jinghong's beauty and talent were one in a million. At least no one in Shangdu city could match him. But now that Bai Jinghong is gone, he has no confidence just relying on Bai Huayan.

"The father originally wanted to choose a good family for Zhen Zhen." Bai Xingyan has been holding on for a long time.

White crane dye pick eyebrow, "how, father think jun family is not a good family?"

"No, no, No." Bai Xingyan quickly denied, how dare he say that the royal family is not good. "I mean, although the royal family is good, there are many rules, and her cousin is too high. If she is wronged in the future, she can't cry, and her mother's family can't afford to be the master for her anyway. You know the temperament of your fourth sister. She's used to being wild. I'm really afraid that if she marries into the royal family, she won't be able to hold her temper and bring disaster to herself. " After a pause, he put on the appearance of a loving father and looked at Bai heran, "is there any room for turning this thing around? We can't hurt your fourth sister! "

White crane dye almost listen to smile, "if I were not your daughter, I'm afraid you just said that I really believe.". It's a pity that I'm your daughter. I know you too well, so father, do you think I can believe it? Where are you worried about Zhen Zhen being wronged? Are you worried about yourself being wronged! After all, the ninth prince held the palace of hell in his hand, which was the most powerful authority of the eastern Qin Dynasty except the imperial court. Once Zhenzhen becomes the wife of the Lord of hell, she is not just the granddaughter of the red family to you. At the same time, there are more people in this mansion who can compete with the Ye family. "After a sip of wine, she asked Bai Xingyan, "can power really make people crazy to this extent? In order to be closer to the peak of power, is it really worth the price you have paid? In fact, if you look back, you have two daughters who are going to be princes and concubines, and they are also the two most powerful princes of the royal family of the eastern Qin Dynasty. If you put them in other people's homes, you may even wake up in your dreams. To be the father-in-law of the ninth Prince and the tenth prince, who dares to belittle you? If you go into the palace, the people in the palace will have to pay more attention to the two princes. If you can devote yourself to the affairs of the state, if you can use all your talents in the court, even the emperor will look up at you, and your memorials and suggestions will be heard more than others. What is power? Isn't that power? There are two sons-in-law, you want to walk horizontally in the upper capital, no one dares to stop you, are you not satisfied? Why do you have to run to the big cake painted by the Ye family? "

Bai Helian is not only persuading Bai Xingyan, but also testing him. At the same time, he is analyzing him.

She said: "if Bai Jinghong's plan was successful, and one day she would sit on the Phoenix chair, what would it have to do with you? She is half of the Ye family and half of the Duan family, but she is not a Bai family at all. How much do you think you can get out of it? Even if it's not Bai Jinghong, what do you think your daughter will choose between Bai family and ye family? How many bites can you take at the end of Ye's big cake? In comparison, don't you think I have a better chance of winning with Zhen Zhen? Do you get more benefits from being close to me and Zhen Zhen? "

Bai Xingyan kept silent and drank a lot of wine. He admitted that what Bai hecan said was true, and he was not a fool. He also knew that if he treated the two daughters well, he would have a bright future and make the Bai family turn over completely.

Unfortunately, it's too late. It's too late since he strangled his son more than ten years ago.

"You don't want to, but you don't have a chance, do you?" Baihecan's eyes were burning, staring at his father in front of him“ You have no choice, because you have done a wrong thing that is enough to destroy the family, but this wrong thing has been caught, which forces you to have no way back. You can only go to the black road paved by the Ye family. Even if there is a hell abyss ahead, you have no way back. Am I right? "

She suddenly understood that Bai Xingyan had no choice not only in killing his own son, but also in working with the Ye family to lay the overall situation. Or in other words, the people who knew the original handle were not only the current king of gobu, but also the Ye family. Not only do they know, they have been using that handle to coerce Bai Xingyan for more than ten years, even more than 20 years.

Bai Xingyan covered his face with his hands. He didn't know whether he had drunk too much or really because Bai hecan's words touched his heart. In short, his shoulders trembled and he sobbed.

White crane dye will know that she is right, including a question she has been wondering, and finally has an answer.

She has been wondering since she came across that a generation of Wen Guogong, with his own ability, let the Guogong government, which had been abandoned outside the power, squeeze into the court again, which shows that Xingyan is not a fool. He has his own ideal of revenge, he has his own clear goal of struggle, he wants to revitalize the ancestral family, he wants to let the Bai family return to the peak of prosperity, he wants to let the declining government of Wenguo become brilliant again in his hands.

So he has been working hard, careful management, in the wedding chunyulan had a place in the court.

However, such a person became more and more biased later, even to the point that he wanted other people's children to inherit his family property and give up the hereditary Duke of Wen. This is simply unreasonable!

Bai Xingyan is not a fool. If he can revitalize the declining Bai family in this generation, it shows that he has brains.

But why do people with brains do things without brains?

Everyone said that he was attached to the Ye family, saying that he was not satisfied with being a minister and standing in the middle of the court. He wants to go a step further, to be the ruler of the state, to work with the Ye family to cultivate a puppet emperor, and then to be the master behind the puppet himself.

But still, Bai Xingyan is not stupid. How can he not think that even if Bai Jinghong really sits in the back seat, how can the Ye family let him be the helmsman? When the title of Duke Wen was given to Bai HaoChen, what was left of him?
