Chapter 452 When did my second brother become so soft-hearted?
"Sister Fuxing?" Li Suining's eyes lit up. Just as she was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
"I am Lucky Star." Then, a soft and childish voice sounded.
Everyone in the room looked at each other, and the little girl was instantly delighted and went to open the door.
"I'll do it." Bai Yu'an followed and asked curiously, "Isn't that lucky star... unable to speak?"
Before Li Suining answered him, he reached out and opened the door.
Outside the door, Fuxing slowly took off his hood, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. He looked at Bai Yu'an with a smile, nodded, and quickly turned his gaze to Li Suining.
"Sister Fuxing, come in quickly." Li Suining happily pulled Fuxing into the house.
When Bai Yu'an came to his senses, the beautiful face in front of him had disappeared. He frowned slightly and closed the door again.
Li Suining had already pulled Fuxing to the middle of the brothers and excitedly introduced her, "Sister Fuxing can talk, and she's super beautiful."
She shook Fuxing's hand and said, "Sister Fuxing, please say hello to my brothers."
Fuxing's eyes moved as she looked at everyone one by one. When she looked at Bai Yu'an, she slightly curled the corners of her lips, and when she saw Xiao Wu, there was obvious timidity in her eyes.
"My name is Fuxing, and I come from a very remote village called Qiansui Village," she began slowly, recounting her story. "I... am now the high priest of the palace, living in the Imperial Preceptor's Palace. General Bai... was falsely accused of treason. Actually... it was me who collaborated with Zuo Sixian in this."
"What?" Bai Shi'an was the first to lose control of his emotions. He stepped forward and asked coldly, "What did you just say? Are you... going to harm our Bai family?"
"Fourth brother, don't get excited. Sister Fuxing didn't mean to harm us." Li Suining quickly stood in front of Fuxing, "Fourth brother, will you listen to what Sister Fuxing has to say?"
Fuxing lowered his eyes and said helplessly, "I have no excuse for this matter. At that time, I really agreed to what Zuo Sixian said in order to enter the palace. I..."
She slowly bent down and bowed to everyone to admit her mistake, "I'm really sorry."
"Hmph, now that you know you're wrong, go explain the situation to the emperor immediately and clear our family's name." Bai Shi'an was still amazed.
In fact, what made him even more angry was that the Emperor of Jin actually doubted the loyalty of the Bai family because of the words of a high priest. It was simply... unbelievable.
Fuxing shook his head, "No, at least not now."
"You!" Bai Shian gritted his teeth in hatred.
Fuxing looked at him calmly, "If I confess everything to the emperor now, it will only kill me. I'm sorry, I really can't do it."
"So what do you mean?" Bai Rui'an couldn't bear to watch any longer. Although the girl was beautiful, that didn't change her identity as a villain. "You've harmed our family so much? How can you still have the nerve to come to my house for the New Year?"
"Fifth Brother!" Little Tuanzi was so anxious that she was about to cry. "I invited Sister Fuxing to come here, and without Sister Fuxing... I can't come back, and Daddy... they can't come back either."
"Sister!" Bai Ruian pulled Li Suining over and said, "Don't be fooled by her appearance. If she hadn't cooperated with Zuo Sixian in the beginning, we wouldn't have encountered these unforeseen disasters."
Bai Ruian's mind was obviously still very clear.
When the fourth brother next to him heard this, he knew it was indeed the case and instantly became more hostile to Fuxing. "Fifth brother is right. You are the culprit. We will not be grateful to you. Sister, you should not be grateful to her either."
"Okay, fourth and fifth brother, have you made enough noise?" Bai Yu'an shook his head helplessly at his two younger brothers.
He turned to look at Fuxing, "Since you apologized sincerely, you should be prepared to make amends and make up for your mistakes, right?"
"I will." Fuxing nodded vigorously, looking at Bai Yu'an with a pair of tender eyes without blinking.
"That's good." Bai Yu'an was the first to retract his gaze, and said calmly, "Tell me, what are your plans?"
"I will find a way to tell the emperor the truth, but you have to give me time." Fuxing looked around at everyone, "Also, if you need any help, you can tell me. I can do it and will do my best."
"Tell me first, in the palace, besides Zuo Sixian, who else do you obey? What exactly do you want to do?" Bai Qing'an, who had been silent all the time, spoke.
"I mainly take orders from the Empress. The Empress must want to get rid of all those who mock the throne of the Eastern Palace, as well as the Second Prince. He knows my secret and has been blackmailing me into doing things for him."
Bai Qingan nodded in understanding.
Everyone asked a lot of questions, and Fuxing answered almost all of them, so everyone's guard was gradually lowered.
However, Xiao Wu did not speak during this time, but just looked at Fuxing from a distance, judging whether her answer was true or false, and how sincere her words were.
Finally, it was time for dinner. Wei Ranzhu sent someone to call them, and everyone walked towards Qinxin Garden together.
Xiao Wu called out to Bai Yu'an at the end, "Second brother, give me a push."
"Okay!" Bai Yu'an instantly understood that the third brother had something to say to him.
The two brothers slowly distanced themselves from the crowd. Bai Yu'an saw Fuxing looking back at him, and he subconsciously nodded at him. Fuxing also smiled and nodded, and continued to walk with the crowd.
Xiao Wu took it all in and said slowly, "Second brother, what do you think of this lucky star?"
"Hmm?" Bai Yu'an didn't expect Xiao Wu to ask this. "How about what?"
"Is he trustworthy?" Xiao Wu asked the question more directly.
Bai Yu'an obviously thought about it seriously and said, "We'll have to wait and see."
"When did second brother become so soft-hearted?" Xiao Wu spoke again, his voice a little colder.
"Huh?" Bai Yu'an looked over in confusion.
"This lucky star is clearly not trustworthy at all, either now or in the future," Xiao Wu's voice grew even colder, his tone tinged with hatred. "Even Old Five can see this, so why can't Second Brother understand?"
Bai Yu'an didn't say anything.
Xiao Wu continued, "Without even knowing the Bai family, she treated her father's and others' lives as a joke. Is this the kind of indifference a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl should have?"
"Her so-called help for us and her sister is just because she sees profit and knows that Zuo Sixian has little chance of winning," Xiao Wu turned to look at Bai Yu'an, "Towards such a person, I think my second brother should be more indifferent than anyone else."
Bai Yu'an frowned, "But I always feel... maybe she is also a victim?"
"Second brother!" Xiao Wu was a little anxious. "Don't be fooled by her beauty, and don't be fooled by her disguise. She doesn't deserve pity, not from the beginning!"
