Chapter 557: Telling You the Secret of My Second Brother
Li Suining and Bai Yu'an stayed in the back mountain of Tian'en Temple until evening before reluctantly returning to the palace.
After dinner, Bai Yu'an found an opportunity to call Fuxing outside.
"Is there something wrong?" Fuxing raised his eyebrows and asked seriously.
"There's something I think I should tell you," Bai Yu'an said with a twitch of his lips. "Actually, my eldest brother and third brother..."
"This is your Bai family's business, don't tell me." Fuxing interrupted him and turned to go back. "If Mr. Bai has nothing else to say, I'll go back first."
"Fuxing!" Bai Yu'an stepped forward and grabbed Fuxing's wrist.
The woman's wrist was slender and soft, as if he could break it with a slight force, which made his heart soften even more.
"Fuxing, I didn't mean to hide it from you at first." Bai Yu'an didn't know what to say, but he could feel that Fuxing was unhappy because of this. "Anyway, I'm sorry, you...don't be unhappy."
Fuxing pulled his hand back with all his strength and said without turning his head, "Second Master Bai, you're overthinking it. I'm not unhappy, and I won't be unhappy about something like this."
After saying that, she strode away.
Bai Yu'an sighed helplessly.
At this time, Yuan Xiaonian came out. Seeing Bai Yu'an's expression, he smiled and asked, "It seems that Second Young Master Bai has had a bad start."
"What do you know?" Bai Yu'an was too lazy to discuss these things with the little brat in front of him.
Yuan Xiaonian shook his head. He might not understand the love between men and women, but he had learned the art of controlling people since he was a child. He felt that the two should be similar.
"I don't understand those twists and turns, but I can remind you, Mr. Bai, that with someone like Fuxing, you have to give her a lot of trust before you can even gain a little bit of her trust. So, Mr. Bai, you still have a long way to go."
When going to bed at night, Li Suining noticed that Sister Fuxing seemed still unhappy.
She thought for a moment, then leaned over to Fuxing's ear and said, "Sister Fuxing, I'll tell you a secret, a secret about my second brother."
"What?" Fuxing looked interested for once.
"Master Guiyuan said that my second brother asked for a peace amulet for a girl named Fuxing. He only gave it to Fuxing, no one else got one." Little Tuanzi sighed softly, pretending to be sad. "Sui Ning didn't get one either."
Fuxing was obviously a little surprised. He was stunned for a long time before he looked unconvinced. "Why? Are you familiar with Master Guiyuan? Why did he tell you your second brother's secret?"
"No, it was Master Guiyuan who told Third Brother, Third Brother told Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother told Fourth Brother, and Fourth Brother told Sui Ning."
The little dumpling looked like I was very powerful.
"Pfft!" Fuxing couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Okay, I know you two are just trying to coax me, but I'm not a child, and I don't get angry that easily. Go to sleep, I'm fine."
Li Suining looked serious and said, "Everything I said is true!"
"Okay! Got it! Go to sleep!" The smile on Fuxing's face deepened.
Little Tuanzi quickly lay down obediently, tilted his head to glance at Fuxing, and said in a baby voice, "Then let's count, one, two, three, and close our eyes together."
"Okay!" Fuxing closed his eyes before Xiaotuanzi finished counting to three.
She had to admit that Li Suining's words made her very happy and her heart was peaceful, so peaceful that she felt a little sleepy on such a night.
After Li Suining counted to three, she secretly opened her eyes again. Seeing the smile on Sister Fuxing's lips, she finally fell asleep peacefully.
In the next few days, Bai Yu'an and Fuxing went to give acupuncture to Emperor Chu almost every day, and Li Suining often went with them to play with Zi Tong. Gradually, Zi Tong liked this little sister more and more.
However, since recent events were all related to Fuxing, Li Suining's ability to observe the stars was temporarily lost.
Bai Yu'an has already confessed this matter to Fuxing, because he thinks what Yuan Xiaonian said makes sense, and he can no longer hide anything from Fuxing.
So, at this time, they discussed and asked Li Suining to pay attention to the situation on Zuo Jiali's side. After all, Zuo Jiali's actions represented Shangguan Jinglan.
That day, they went to give acupuncture to the King of Chu again. Li Suining and Zi Tong were playing chess outside when Wei Changkong came.
"Uncle Wei!" Zi Tong immediately ran forward and greeted him loudly to remind the people inside.
Because they had agreed that when Bai Yu'an was doing acupuncture, Fuxing would guard the door and listen to the noise outside to prevent anyone from breaking in.
Wei Changkong was a suspicious person by nature. He thought Zi Tong's reaction was a little strange, so he quickened his pace and rushed inside.
Zi Tong was terrified. He was afraid that they wouldn't be able to clean up in time, so he immediately rushed over to stop Wei Changkong, "Uncle Wei, do you want to see my father? He's meeting someone inside right now. Shouldn't you send someone to inform him?"
As a result, Wei Changkong didn't give Zi Tong any face at all. The more Zi Tong acted like this, the more he felt that there was something wrong. He pushed Zi Tong to the ground and pushed the door open to enter the inner hall.
"Uncle Wei!" Zi Tong shouted nervously.
Xiaotuanzi quickly went over and helped Zitong up, "Brother Zitong, are you okay?"
Zi Tong stood up hurriedly, ran behind Wei Changkong, and looked towards the inner hall.
I saw Zi Yunlai sitting at the table with Bai Yu'an and Fuxing. They seemed to be talking about something and there was nothing unusual about them.
Zi Tong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, walked around Wei Changkong and entered the inner hall, saying respectfully, "Father, General Wei requests an audience!"
"Why... didn't Tong'er tell General Wei that I was meeting a distinguished guest?" Zi Yunlai slowly turned his gaze to Wei Changkong.
After all, he was the Emperor of Chu. Wei Changkong dared to be rude to Zi Tong, but he did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of him.
"I am sorry for being rude!" Wei Changkong clasped his fists and saluted. "But please forgive me, Your Majesty. I was too impatient!"
Zi Yunlai sneered, "Impatient? What's going on? Did something happen at the border? It actually made our national defense general lose his composure!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Wei Changkong paused before speaking excitedly, "Your Majesty, I heard that Your Majesty prays for Dongchu every day with the Imperial Master and the High Priest. You truly care about the people. But Your Majesty may not be aware that Dongchu has been suffering from drought for many days recently, and the people are suffering terribly."
Zi Yunlai frowned, "I have also heard about this matter. It is precisely because of this that I meet with the Imperial Master and the High Priest every day, hoping that God will be merciful and send down rain to save the people from the dire situation."
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the Imperial Master and the High Priest are renowned throughout the Jin Dynasty. They are highly regarded by the Jin Emperor in the Imperial Palace. I would like to..."
Wei Changkong looked up at Bai Yu'an and Fuxing, "Perhaps, the State Master and the High Priest can perform a ritual in Dongchu and pray for rain for us!"
