Chapter 571 I never have the courage to open it
Bai Yu'an didn't show his thoughts and replied in a deep voice, "If it's a letter of truce, Dongchu would absolutely love it."
"Hahaha..." Yuan Xiaonian laughed loudly, but the laughter sounded a little frightening. "Okay, then this prince will think about it again."
"Oh, there's one more thing," Bai Yu'an said slowly, "I'm afraid the Emperor Chu was quite frightened by what happened today. I can see he doesn't look well either, so I thought I'd go check on him later."
Yuan Xiaonian nodded and said, "Second Master Bai, please do as you please. You don't need my permission."
"I'll take my leave." Bai Yu'an turned and left.
After leaving the door, he looked back thoughtfully. He always felt that Yuan Xiaonian had become different.
Bai Yu'an went to find Fuxing first.
"Sui Ning just saw... saying that Zi Yunlai might die tomorrow." He said straight to the point.
"Tomorrow?" Fuxing was obviously a little surprised. "But he looked good today. How could it be..."
For a moment, the image of Queen Cao Huaping appeared in her mind, but she lowered her head and said nothing.
"I'll go over and take a look. If he doesn't have any special health problems..." Bai Yu'an narrowed his eyes, "Then I'm afraid I'll have to ask him to pay attention to his diet."
Fuxing nodded, still looking down, obviously thinking about something.
"By the way, there is one more thing I should ask you." Bai Yu'an spoke again, his tone obviously a little embarrassed.
Fuxing looked up and just at a glance, she guessed what Bai Yu'an was going to ask.
She didn't wait for Bai Yu'an to speak, and said coldly, "It's me."
"Huh?" Bai Yu'an looked over with slight surprise.
Fuxing raised his chin slightly, "Aren't you asking if it was me who interfered with what happened today and caused Wei Changkong's death?"
Bai Yu'an nodded hesitantly.
"It's me. I think Wei Changkong deserves to die. Only his death can eliminate the trouble forever." Fuxing remained calm, and his beautiful eyes stared back at Bai Yu'an without blinking.
Bai Yu'an hesitated for a moment, then nodded again, "Your... decision is right, but... you also know that Sui Ning will be scared when she sees these things, so I think..."
Fuxing suddenly interrupted him, "Second Master Bai, please be less womanly."
After saying that, she didn't give Bai Yu'an another chance to speak, turned around and left without looking back.
"Lucky star!" Bai Yu'an shouted from afar, but seeing that the other party did not respond, he had to give up.
"Second brother?" Little Tuanzi appeared out of nowhere and asked worriedly, "Is Sister Fuxing angry?"
Bai Yu'an shook his head and said, "Don't worry, no."
"Really?" Li Suining was still a little worried and kept looking in the direction where Fuxing left.
"Okay, second brother is going to meet Emperor Chu. Do you want to go with him?" Bai Yu'an asked with a smile.
"Okay!" Little Dumpling nodded, took Bai Yu'an's hand obediently, and went to see Emperor Chu together.
At this time, in the hall of Emperor Chu, Zi Yunlai sent everyone out, leaving only himself and Zi Tong.
"Father, do you have anything to say?" Zi Tong was a little scared. Today should have been a happy occasion for everyone except Wei Changkong, but why did his father look unhappy?
Zi Yunlai rubbed his son's head vigorously and said, "Tong'er has grown up."
"Huh?" Zi Tong looked over in confusion.
Zi Yunlai smiled and did not explain the meaning of this sentence. He took out a booklet from his sleeve and handed it over.
"What is this?" Zi Tong took it hesitantly, looked at his father in confusion, and did not open it immediately.
Zi Yunlai nodded in appreciation, and then continued, "This... is the list we found in Wei Changkong's house."
"What?" Zi Tong was obviously surprised. "Then... the book you just burned?"
"It's blank." Zi Yunlai said directly. He had just told the eunuch to make a fake one and burn it, and give the real one directly to him.
Zi Tong nodded in understanding, his eyes fixed on the book in his hand again, and he spoke thoughtfully, "Father, I don't want to read it now."
"Good boy!" Zi Yunlai patted Zi Tong's shoulder as a reward, "Your decision is right."
Zi Tong looked up and looked at Zi Yunlai in shock.
"Until you're no longer able to dispose of these people, or until you're sure which of them you can still use," Zi Yunlai said in a heavy tone, "don't open it. Put it away and treat it as a gift from your father."
Zi Tong's eyes suddenly turned red. "What if...what if I never have the courage to open this booklet? Will your Majesty be disappointed?"
"Silly child, how could that be?" Zi Yunlai said with a smile, "In the eyes of the emperor, you have long been his pride."
"Father!" Zi Tong threw himself into Zi Yunlai's arms like a child.
At this time, a voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, Princess Suining of Dajin and the Imperial Preceptor request an audience."
Zi Tong quickly wiped away her tears and said happily, "Father, it's Sister Sui Ning who is here."
"Well, go ahead and let them in." Zi Yunlai touched his son's head.
Zi Tong put the book away and ran out immediately, "Sister Suining! Imperial Master! Why are you here at this hour? Father wants you to come in."
Bai Yu'an turned around and instructed Li Suining, "Sister, you stay here and play with Prince Zitong. Second brother will go in and see Lord Chu."
"Okay, I understand." Li Suining knew what Bai Yu'an was going to say, and these words were obviously not suitable for Zi Tong to hear.
Zi Tong looked at Bai Yu'an curiously, and wanted to go in and listen together.
"Brother Zi Tong, why doesn't your mother let you play with me?" Li Suining tugged at Zi Tong's sleeve, deliberately drawing his attention back.
As expected, Zi Tong immediately turned around and looked at her apologetically, "I don't know either, but my mother has always been very strict with me, and I don't have many friends. I don't think she's targeting you."
He was afraid that Li Suining would be unhappy, so he smiled and coaxed her, "But you don't have to worry about it. My mother is usually in the Buddhist temple and rarely comes out, so she doesn't really care about me."
"I see." Li Suining nodded in understanding. "You all in Dongchu believe in Buddhism. Your mother also believes in Buddhism. My mother said that people who believe in Buddhism are very kind."
Zi Tong twitched the corner of his mouth and said vaguely, "Maybe."
In fact, he was embarrassed to say that he knew very little about his mother. Even after he was born, his mother had never held him in her arms. His mother had never been very close to him. She was only a little nice to him in the court.
However, he didn't care. He had the best father, and that was enough.
But he felt a little uneasy because Bai Yu'an came suddenly at this time.
