Chapter 355: This is a trip to the gates of hell
Since being imprisoned, Bai Yunfeng has never forgotten his father's identity and has always been calm and composed.
But at this moment, he looked at Bai Shian beside him, thought of the other people in the mansion, and thought of Tuanzi, who was only four years old, and his expression gradually became sad.
He fought countless battles for his country, but he had never felt as helpless as he did now.
All he wanted to do was to protect his country and make his family happier and more complete. He never thought that one day he would face such a situation.
"Fourth Brother!" Bai Yunfeng pulled his son up. "Besides confessing his guilt, what else can Dad do to save our family?"
"You can't plead guilty! You absolutely can't plead guilty!" Bai Shi'an became excited. "Dad, if you plead guilty, then our Bai family will truly fall into the abyss and we will never be able to recover."
Bai Yunfeng was so excited that he could hardly speak. He knew very well what his confession meant.
But at least, he pleaded guilty, Ranzhu and the children could avoid imprisonment, and at least they could survive.
"Dad, believe me," Bai Shi'an said, holding back his tears. "Now that my sister is back, maybe things will turn around."
Bai Yunfeng couldn't help but frowned, "What can she, a four-year-old child, do?"
When he thought of Xiao Suining being in jail, he felt so distressed. "At this moment, I don't know where she is being held. She must be so scared being alone."
"Dad, you forgot, my sister is a lucky star," Bai Shi'an said with a firm expression, a glimmer of hope in his eyes, "there will definitely be a turning point."
Although he couldn't think of how his sister would leave the prison or get the news at this moment, he just believed that his sister would be able to rescue everyone.
Bai Yunfeng looked at his son's determined eyes, then slowly nodded, "Then... should we wait a little longer?"
"Wait a little longer, Dad, we must hold on!" Bai Shian nodded vigorously again.
That night, when You San entered the inquiry room to bring the brazier to Xiaotuanzi, the little guy seemed to be in a good mood.
"Uncle Yousan, thank you for these past few days." She ran up to Yousan and tilted her head up. "I'll go to Uncle Yousan's house to play if I have the chance in the future."
You San smiled and said, "Okay, there will be a chance in the future..."
He paused and then forced himself to nod and agree, "Uncle, you're welcome anytime."
Because he knew in his heart that it was impossible for this child to leave the prison in a short time, and the so-called opportunity... he didn't know whether it would ever come.
"Good night, Uncle Yousan!" Little Dumpling got on the bed, covered himself with the quilt, and prepared to rest.
"Good night!" You San tucked the corner of the quilt for the little guy, and then turned and left after making sure that everything was alright.

The next morning, Zuo Jiali went out early and went to the Imperial College.
Yesterday, the chief academic sent someone to deliver a message saying that Emperor Yuan Tianchen of Jin would go to the Imperial College to visit the students today, so he had to go there early today to make some preparations.
However, as soon as he left the house, he felt as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember what it was.
But for some reason, he always felt that this matter was very important, so he was thinking about it all the way.
Soon, the carriage obviously slowed down.
Zuo Jiali anxiously lifted the curtain and took a look, and found that the carriage's speed had temporarily slowed down because it had entered the market area.
He lowered the curtain impatiently and continued to think about what the thing he had forgotten was.
"Market?" Zuo Jiali felt strange and couldn't help but repeat it. Suddenly, his eyes widened in shock.
He remembered that Xiaotuanzi had said that he should not leave the market today as it would be dangerous.
But at this time... Zuo Jiali lifted the curtain again. There was obviously no danger outside, but if he turned around and changed the route at this time, it might delay him even longer.
what to do?
Zuo Jiali struggled for a moment.
It is still moving slowly forward.
"Stop the car!" The more Zuo Jiali struggled, the more the little dumpling's face appeared in his mind.
Although he knew that changing the route was unnecessary, he didn't want to let the little girl down.
He irritably ordered the driver, "Turn around, change the route, don't go this way."
"But Second Young Master..." The driver was obviously reluctant. It was really troublesome to turn around here.
"No buts. Are my words ineffective?" Zuo Jiali slammed the door curtain, not giving the driver a chance to talk nonsense.
The driver shook his head helplessly. There was nothing he could do. His master's words were like an imperial decree. No matter how reluctant he was, he had to do as he was told.
He turned the car around with some difficulty, and with a "go!", he prepared to leave.
But at this moment, there was a sudden "boom" sound from behind the carriage, and the horse became impregnated and immediately ran wildly.
But fortunately, the horse was galloping in the direction away from the market, so there were fewer and fewer people around, and the horse would not hurt anyone.
The coachman and Zuo Jiali in the carriage were both scared to death. When the horse was finally controlled, Zuo Jiali immediately jumped off the carriage, ran to the side of the road and vomited violently.
"Second Young Master, are you okay?" The driver was also frightened.
What just happened was that something exploded in the market. If they hadn't turned around...
Zuo Jiali looked at the driver with horror and couldn't help cursing, "Did this young master walk through the gates of hell?"
"Second Young Master is blessed with great fortune and a long life. This is God's blessing. I have also benefited from following the Second Young Master."
At this moment, the driver could only feel fortunate that if he had not turned around, he would have died even more miserably than Zuo Er.
Zuo Jiali didn't say anything, because he knew that it might not be God who blessed him, but... it was definitely related to that dumpling.
"Little lucky star..." He couldn't help but mutter, "She really is a little lucky star."
"Second Young Master?" The driver looked over curiously. "What did you say? Who is Little Lucky Star?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Zuo Jiali wiped his mouth and quickly got on the carriage. "Hurry up, let's go to the Imperial College. It's late now."
"Yes, Second Young Master, please sit tight." The driver did not dare to delay and hurriedly sped up, rushing towards the Imperial College.
When they arrived at the place, as soon as the carriage stopped, Zuo Jiali jumped out and ran inside.
"Is it Zuo Er?" A deep and powerful voice sounded.
Zuo Jiali suddenly stopped and looked back, only to find that it was Emperor Yuan Tianchen of Jin and Crown Prince Yuan Huaihong.
He quickly stepped forward and saluted, "Your humble servant Zuo Jiali greets the Emperor and the Crown Prince! I was in such a hurry just now that I didn't see the Emperor and the Crown Prince. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"It's Zuo Er, get up!" Yuan Tianchen seemed to be in a good mood.
"I always hear Sixian mention your younger brother, saying that you have been performing very well in the Imperial College recently..."
He looked at Yuan Huaihong with a smile, obviously joking on purpose.
"It seems that Sixian's words cannot be fully trusted. If Zuo Er is really serious and hardworking, why would he come so late so early in the morning?"
