Chapter 480: Probably to force Bai Yunfeng to confess
In the prison of the Censorate, Bai Shi'an was lying on the hay and heard Bai Yunfeng tossing and turning. In fact, he felt something was wrong when Bai Yunfeng came back during the day.
"Dad, can't you sleep?" He finally couldn't help but sit up. "During the interrogation this day, what did that lucky star say?"
Bai Yunfeng had indeed been tossing and turning, and now he sat up. He glanced at his fourth son and sighed deeply, "How about... Dad just admit it!"
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Bai Shi'an was instantly anxious. He sat opposite Bai Yunfeng and shook Bai Yunfeng's arm pleadingly, "Dad, didn't we agree that we should get through this together as a family? You can't give up."
But Bai Yunfeng had been carrying it for a long time and he was already tired.
Especially during the two days when he returned home for the New Year, he was actually very tormented inside when he saw his family happy and joyful.
He always felt that if he had confessed his guilt earlier, his sons would not have to be locked up in this dark prison, Wei Ranzhu and the others would not have to be confined to the general's mansion every day, and Xiao Suining would not have to be separated from them.
Bai Yunfeng felt that all this was because of himself. He had actually been bearing it all the time, but after meeting Fuxing today, he really couldn't bear it anymore.
The most important thing is that he doesn’t know what the meaning of enduring it is. Is it worth such a huge sacrifice for his family?
"Shi'an, Dad..." Bai Yunfeng touched his son's head, "Dad is tired."
"Dad!" Bai Shi'an was so anxious that he was about to cry. He grabbed Bai Yunfeng's hand and said, "Dad, think about mom, think about our sons, and our sisters, Xiaoba and Xiaojiu. If you admit it, what will we do?"
"Silly child, now that Dad has acknowledged you, the Emperor won't embarrass you anymore," Bai Yunfeng said with a wry smile, "You can be reunited and live a normal life."
"Normal?" Bai Shi'an burst into tears. "Without my father in the General's Mansion, how can we be normal? How can we have a normal life?"
Hearing his son say this, Bai Yunfeng felt even more uncomfortable. He pulled Bai Shian into his arms and said, "It's all Dad's fault. It's Dad who got you into trouble. It's all Dad's fault!"
"Dad!" Bai Yu'an was not good at speaking and didn't know how to persuade Bai Yunfeng. He could only cry and shout, "I don't want you to leave us, no!"
"Good! Good boy!" Bai Yunfeng patted his son's back vigorously, "Go to sleep!"
The next morning, as soon as Li Suining woke up, he asked Fuxing, "Sister Fuxing, are you going to interrogate Daddy and the others today?"
"No." Fuxing sat in front of the mirror and looked at Li Suining through it. "I'll get them together today."
"Let's get together?" Little Dumpling didn't quite understand. "Who's with whom?"
"Your father and his brothers." Fuxing turned around and looked at Li Suining with a smile, "Let them have a good talk."
Li Suining's eyes lit up instantly, and he asked expectantly, "Then... can I go?"
Unexpectedly, Fuxing immediately shook his head and said, "No, maybe next time. I will definitely let you reunite with them when there is a chance."
"Okay then!" Li Suining asked the other jailers when she came back yesterday. She was very grateful to know that Fuxing did not torture the fathers, and she did not dare to make any other requests.
At this time, You San's voice was heard outside, "County Lady Suining, are you awake? Someone's looking for you!"
Li Suining put on his clothes and got out of bed. "Is Brother Zuo Er here? I'll go out and take a look."
Fuxing put on his hood and followed behind.
As soon as the two opened the door, they saw Yuan Xiaonian standing in the middle of the yard.
"Second Emperor..." Li Suining was about to call for help excitedly when Sister Fuxing quickly pulled the corner of her mouth beside him.
She immediately realized that she couldn't call the Second Prince "brother" at this moment, so she changed her address and ran forward, saying, "Brother Xiaonian, why are you here? How's your injury?"
"It's so boring, let's go out for a walk." Yuan Xiaonian smiled at Li Suining, then looked up at Fuxing.
Under the wide hood, Fuxing raised the corners of her mouth with success. She had guessed that Yuan Xiaonian would come.
"That's great. I'm bored here too, but from now on I'll have Brother Xiaonian with me." The little girl was obviously very happy. "Have you had breakfast?"
"Yeah, I've eaten." Yuan Xiaonian looked at the other house in the yard. "No one lives there, right? I'll stay there for the time being."
As he spoke, he called out to Fuxing, "Can the high priest make the decision?"
Fuxing nodded.
"Then I'll take you there." Little Tuanzi took Yuan Xiaonian's hand and went to the next room. He also carefully told Yuan Xiaonian, "Brother Xiaonian, this used to be Zuo Sixian's room. Don't touch the things here. Brother Zuo Er will come to get them."
Yuan Xiaonian nodded, sat down on the chair, and asked gently, "You... don't hate Zuo Sixian anymore?"
The little dumpling shook his head. "I never hated him. I also know he had his own reasons."
"Silly girl!" Yuan Xiaonian shook his head helplessly. "Why? In your eyes, everyone has their own difficulties and they are not bad people, right?"
"No," Little Dumpling said with certainty, "Zuo Shanzhang is a big bad guy. Not only is he bad himself, he also makes others do bad things with him. He is the worst guy."
Yuan Xiaonian smiled and lowered his voice to ask, "How is Fuxing? Is there anything strange?"
"No." Li Suining said truthfully, "During the day, I was with Uncle Yousan. Sister Fuxing and Uncle Guoshi were busy with their own affairs, judging my father and brothers."
"Any results?" Yuan Xiaonian asked curiously.
"No, but..." Li Suining said mysteriously, "Sister Fuxing said that she would let Dad and my brothers get together today to chat."
Yuan Xiaonian immediately realized that something was wrong. Fuxing would not be so kind as to let Bai Yunfeng and others reunite. She probably let them get together to force Bai Yunfeng to confess, or she had other intentions.
He didn't say it in front of Li Suining. He stood up and said with a smile, "Let's go. Didn't you eat? Go eat!"
Yuan Xiaonian accompanied Li Suining to dinner. When he saw Fuxing at the dinner table, he winked at him.
"Xiao Suining, take your time eating. I'm going to go back and pack my things first."
"Okay!" Li Suining replied readily, "I'll help you after I finish eating!"
Yuan Xiaonian left first, and soon Fuxing also stood up and said that she had finished eating, and she left too.
Li Suining was inexplicably anxious and stuffed food into his mouth with great force.
"Little girl, why are you so anxious?" Wen Renli shook his head helplessly. "They have something to talk about. If you go, won't you be in the way?"
The little dumpling's mouth was stuffed full, and at this moment he looked like a little hamster storing food. He blinked his big eyes when he heard Wen Renli's words.
However, she quickly realized that Wenren Li was right. The Second Prince seemed to want to talk to Sister Fuxing, and she couldn't disturb him.
"Okay then." Li Suining spoke incoherently and began to chew the food in his mouth slowly.
