"That depends on who it's with." Bai Suning suddenly became a little arrogant.

At this moment, she didn't even think that this ability came from Jun Yunyan, not her.

Subconsciously, I treated Jun Yunyan's things as my own.

"My son-in-law is here?" City Lord Bai's eyes suddenly lit up. He didn't know why the word "son-in-law" came to his mind so easily. "Where is he? Why can't I see him?"

In the dark, Jun Yunyan raised his thin lips and smiled faintly.

Bai Suning didn't see it, and just cursed at her father: "Son-in-law?"

"He has already given the betrothal gift, how can he not be my son-in-law?" City Lord Bai has already accepted the man. He thought about it carefully for a while. Anyway, his daughter has agreed, and it would not be good if he disagrees. He might as well accept it.

certainly.

He would never admit that he was attracted by those delicious treasures.

Bai Suning: "!!!!"

Bai Suning was a little angry when she talked about this. She asked him with some confusion and bewilderment: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered why you agreed to marry me."

While she was still thinking about it, she saw her father selling her out.

City Lord Bai thought she was angry about why he didn't embarrass Jun Yunyan, so he agreed and casually explained, "I've thought about it carefully. Jun Yunyan is still better for you. You treated him so well before, but he didn't bother with you. Besides, he has a high level of cultivation and so many treasures. He is a perfect match for you."

Bai Suning: "!!!!!!"

She might become the first person on the mainland to be angered to death by her own father!

"After all this time, you're attracted by the betrothal gifts."

"Although the betrothal gift is indeed very tempting, the reason why Dad agreed to it is definitely not for this. It is definitely because of your consideration." City Lord Bai said seriously, and his brows were as serious as they could be.

Bai Suning turned her eyes away and didn't look at him.

I won’t bother with him about this matter for now. Anyway, I have promised to finish this book with Jun Yunyan.

Nothing else matters.

Jun Yunyan, who was in the dark, watched the matter officially come to an end, and he completely let it go in his heart, thinking that he had abducted the person.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you about this. Let's get down to business." Bai Suning didn't want to talk to him anymore. She glanced at the situation here and asked, "Do you know City Lord Xue of Weicheng and his daughter Xue Yue?"

City Lord Bai thought for a moment, then snorted twice and spoke with a bit of pride: "He's been the runner-up for ten thousand years, who doesn't know him?"

Bai Suning: “???”

"Every year when the Emperor selects the best-managed cities, our Yuxiao City always comes in first." City Lord Bai said this with a particularly proud air. "Their Wei City comes in second."

"Don't think there's much difference between the first and the second."

"The rewards given by the Emperor vary greatly. He is always unhappy when he sees me taking so much every year. Others also call him Xue Lao Er."

"Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Bai Suning was silent.

Seeing his indifferent and clueless look, I felt a little helpless: "Do you know why you are in jail?"

"I know, but I don't know why it happened like this." City Lord Bai was also confused, but he was very calm.

"The girl in red who came to arrest you that day was City Lord Xue's daughter." Bai Suning explained to him, frowning with a heavy look on her face, "You were framed by them."

Lord Bai: “????”

A string of question marks crossed Bai Chengzhu's forehead, and he quickly denied it: "Impossible, Xue Lao Er looks very honest, he is not the kind of person who would do such a thing."

Such an honest person.

Will they frame me?!

"Are you sure he's honest?" Bai Suning asked doubtfully.

"Of course." City Lord Bai said with exceptional resolve, reminiscing, "Every time the Emperor announced that our Yuxiao City would take first place, he would happily come to congratulate us. The first time they said he was the second Xue, he agreed without understanding why."

"If other people hadn't joked about it so often, he wouldn't have realized it was a sarcastic word."

Bai Suning: “???”

Is this City Lord Xue?

Why did she feel that this person was a little smart when she saw him?

"Why do you suspect that he framed you?" City Lord Bai got back to the point.

"Her daughter personally put the things in the secret compartment of your room." Bai Suning analyzed to him calmly.

City Lord Bai frowned and asked with some confusion, "Did you see it?"

"I saw it through Jun Yunyan." Bai Suning also covered him with her, and comforted him, saying to him, "I know some things are difficult to believe, but this time you were really tricked by City Lord Xue."

Lord Bai still didn't quite believe it.

Although that honest man often competes with him and sometimes dislikes him, he doesn't seem like a bad person.

As I thought about it, I asked, "Why did he frame me?"

"How would I know? Maybe he doesn't want to be second in command anymore and wants you to be the boss." Bai Suning didn't dare to make any conclusions before finding out the truth. She frowned and explained, "We need to find out the real reason later."

Lord Bai was not stubborn and fell into deep thought.

Bai Suning looked at his embarrassed appearance and asked, "Did the emperor tell you about your punishment?"

"Chop off the head." Lord Bai answered slowly.

"Cut..." Bai Suning's pupils shrank, and she panicked, "When will the execution be carried out?"

As long as time is long enough, she can show the evidence to the emperor, and the emperor might release him after seeing it.

City Lord Bai thought about it carefully and seemed to be nonchalant about the matter. "I don't know. It seems that he will have to confront someone. After the confrontation, he will be beheaded on the same day."

In fact.

That's no confrontation at all.

It was just that the emperor asked him to meet with City Lord Xue so that he could die with peace of mind.

"You're about to be beheaded, and you're still so calm?" This is what Bai Suning couldn't understand the most.

This person's calmness seems to be excessive.

City Lord Bai seemed quite reasonable. He glanced at her, then looked around and said casually, "What else can I do if I'm not calm? I'm trembling with nervousness as I tell you I'm scared. Can you save me?"

Bai Suning: "..."

She was about to say something when she heard some noise outside.

Jun Yunyan's voice appeared beside his ears: "Someone came in from outside, probably looking for your father, come here first."

Bai Suning had no choice but to return to Jun Yunyan first.

After a while, the person who delivered the meal arrived.

When he placed the food in front of City Lord Bai, he said meaningfully, "City Lord Bai, eat this meal and go on your way. Don't do evil in your next life."

"Clang."

The meal was put down.

After everyone left, City Lord Bai walked over to take it.

Looking at the watery soup in the bowl that tasted like pig food, Bai Suning frowned.
