Chapter 344 You Won’t Use This to Harm Others
An old man and a young boy sat opposite each other. Perhaps because they had the same father, if you looked closely at their eyes and brows, you could see some similarities.
Even the look of disdain on each other at this moment was somewhat similar.
Zuo Sixian couldn't help it and suddenly burst out laughing. He didn't know why he was yelling at a four-year-old child.
"What? Are you still so rude? You don't want to call me brother?" He said coldly.
The little dumpling snorted, "You are not my brother."
"Even if I'm not your brother, is Zuo Er your brother?" Zuo Sixian said seriously, "You call Zuo Er brother, and Zuo Er calls me brother. Tell me, shouldn't you call me brother too?"
The little girl was obviously confused by the question. She blinked her big eyes and didn't know how to refuse for a moment.
But she couldn't call him brother.
In her eyes, Zuo Sixian in front of her was also a bad guy.
"Forget it, forget it. I don't want to bother with you." Zuo Sixian saw the little guy's reluctance and waved his hand in boredom.
Then, he asked in a deep voice, "Why did you come back so soon? And...where's Daddy?"
"Daddy?" Little Dumpling said angrily, "Didn't you capture my daddy?"
"..." Zuo Sixian coughed awkwardly, "Okay, okay, then let me ask you again, where is my father? Didn't he... also go to the Northern Barbarians and be with you?"
Xiaotuanzi didn't say anything, because she knew that although she didn't care about Zuo Shanzhang's death, the bad guy in front of her... might get furious.
Zuo Sixian frowned, "Answer me, where is my father?"
The little girl still pursed her lips, looking like she didn't want to answer.
Zuo Sixian's heart subconsciously skipped a beat, having already guessed a bad answer.
However, he didn't think that the children of the Bai family were so brave as to kill Zuo Shanzhang.
He narrowed his eyes and spoke again, "If you don't answer me now, you will have to answer the emperor later. Think it over carefully."
"Whether you're willing to admit it or not, you and I are still blood-related siblings. All I want is for the Bai family to fall. You..."
Zuo Sixian raised his chin slightly and said, "I will do my best to protect you."
"No need." The little girl refused in a baby voice, "If you really do something to my dad, I won't run away alone. I want to be with my dad, mom, and brothers."
Zuo Sixian frowned, "You've only been in the Bai family for a year, how come you've become like this?"
"You want to die with them? What gives you the right? Your last name is not Bai!" He was obviously a little angry.
The little girl said confidently, "Because we are a family."
Zuo Sixian's expression became even uglier, and his voice deepened. "Are you going to tell me or not?"
"But, I'm not saying this because I'm afraid of the Emperor..." The little dumpling blinked his big eyes, "I just... don't want you to lose your manners in front of the palace later."
Zuo Sixian frowned and looked at Tuanzi coldly.
"Your father..." Little Dumpling hesitated for a moment, but still said it in a low voice, "He's dead."
"What?" Although he had some doubts, Zuo Sixian still reacted strongly when he heard Xiaotuanzi say it.
He knelt on one knee in the carriage and grabbed the little girl's shoulders with his slightly trembling hands.
"You said...what happened to Daddy?"
Xiaotuanzi looked at Zuo Sixian with some sympathy, and she thought of her past self.
I was also very sad when I learned that Li Tianfu had died.
She didn't answer, but Zuo Sixian already knew that he had heard correctly. Zuo Shanzhang... was dead.
Xiaotuanzi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and gently wiped the tears from Zuo Sixian's face.
At this moment, Zuo Sixian was shocked to realize that he was actually crying.
He thought he wouldn't cry.
"Don't be too sad," Little Dumpling comforted him somewhat clumsily, "The uncle who is the city lord of Beiman said that he would send his body back to Dajin."
Zuo Sixian sat back and tilted his head to sort out his emotions.
After a while, he spoke again, and his voice was no different from usual.
He stared at the little dumpling intently, "Did... you kill him?"
"No." The little dumpling shook his head like a rattle. "We wanted to bring him back and let the emperor punish him personally, but we didn't expect..."
She scratched her head, not sure what to say. "Anyway, he asked for death himself and asked a friend of his in Beiman to kill him."
"So, my father... committed suicide?" Zuo Sixian confirmed again.
Li Suining nodded. She suddenly felt a little nervous and her little hand couldn't help but grab the corner of Zuo Sixian's clothes.
"I'm telling you this, you won't...use this to harm my father and my brothers, will you?"
Zuo Sixian's expression changed. He looked at the little girl's nervous expression, then lowered his head to look at her little hand holding his.
The little dumpling quickly withdrew his hand.
"No." Zuo Sixian said indifferently, "Bai Yunfeng's rebellion..."
"My father would not rebel." Little Dumpling said unhappily.
Zuo Sixian frowned. "How do you know they won't? The Bai family has half of the military forces of the Great Jin, and the other half also want to join the Bai family army. Doesn't this count as a rebellion?"
"These soldiers were given to Dad by Uncle Emperor," Little Tuanzi felt that Zuo Sixian's words were twisted. "Although they are from the Bai family army, they are all soldiers of Uncle Emperor. As for the other half, what they think has nothing to do with my Dad?"
Zuo Sixian sneered, "You are still too young. There are some things you don't understand. When you grow up a little bit, you will know that the Bai Family Army created by Bai Yunfeng is to overthrow the current rule of Dajin."
"That's nonsense!" Little Dumpling snorted, "I don't want to talk to you anymore."
"It's up to you." Zuo Sixian didn't seem to care much. He leaned against the carriage and slowly closed his eyes.
Little Dumpling was sitting opposite feeling a little sad. The situation before them was obviously not favorable to them.
After a while, she asked aggrievedly, "Will the Emperor put me in jail?"
Zuo Sixian curled his lips, "Maybe."
"Lock me up alone? Or lock me up with daddy and brothers?" Little Dumpling was a little scared.
In the City Lord's Mansion, she had seen the dungeon and there were rats in it.
Zuo Sixian suddenly opened his eyes, "Are you scared?"
The little girl pursed her lips and stopped talking.
"If you call me brother, maybe I can plead for you and let them lock you up with your brother." Zuo Sixian said calmly with his arms folded.
Li Suining blinked, "Really?"
Zuo Sixian nodded.
Little Dumpling looked at him, saw the smile on the corner of his mouth, opened his mouth, but found it difficult to say the word "brother".
Zuo Sixian frowned displeasedly, "I'll count to tens. If you don't call me, I'll take back what I just said."
