At this moment, the sound of slow and steady footsteps was heard. Ling Duannian looked out from the half-open window and saw Aunt Bai walking towards him.
Soon, Aunt Bai came into the room.
But he didn't say anything for a long time.
Ling Duannian smiled, "Mom, you came to see me, not just to sit quietly for a while, right?"
Aunt Bai raised her eyelids slightly, with no emotion on her face, and said calmly, "You and the Third Miss are too close."
Ling Duannian was not surprised at all, but there was a hint of interest in his dark eyes, "Mother, are you asking your son to be an ungrateful and heartless person? When I wanted my sister to save me, you didn't say that, and you didn't think that way."
"There are many ways to repay a favor and express gratitude." Aunt Bai did not give in at all, her mood remained dull, "You don't have to be a good brother."
Ling Duannian narrowed his eyes slightly, "Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Aunt Bai's eyes fell on his face again. After a long while, she spoke without any emotion, "The Third Miss is your sister, but you are not three or five years old. Before, when you were sick, you could be less particular, but now, it is not appropriate."
Ling Duannian laughed at this.
"So, mother, are you going to tell me that there are differences between men and women? Even between siblings?"
"yes."
Ling Duannian's smiling black eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Mom, are you afraid that your son will fall in love with his own sister?"
Aunt Bai, who had been expressionless all this time, suddenly froze and her face changed.
Ling Duannian did not let her go and continued, "She is my biological sister. I really want to know, mother, how could you have such an idea. Or, in your heart, do you think your son is a beast who disregards human ethics?"
The panic in Aunt Bai's eyes flashed away, but it disappeared so quickly that no one could notice it, and she returned to her expressionless look. "The Third Miss is the future Regent Princess. It will not be good for you to get involved with her too much."
"Well, anyway, I shouldn't get so close to my sister, right?"
"yes."
Ling Duannian smiled, "Then there is nothing I can do, Mom, I like my sister. I have liked her since the first time I saw her. Tell me, what can I do?"
Aunt Bai looked at him deeply, said nothing, and stood up and left.
After she left, the smile on Ling Duannian's face faded, "Someone come."
A dark figure appeared silently, "Master."
"Hasn't your mother's background been found out yet?"
The shadowy figure said ashamedly, "I am incompetent. Madam's background is so clear that there is nothing we can do to get started."
"I don't want to hear your excuses."
"I will do my best."
After the man in black left, Ling Duannian looked at the dough doll in his hand, with an unclear emotion in his eyes.
Baili Feiyue and the others from Huichun Hall announced that today's matter had come to an end when it got dark. There were still many people waiting for the poison to be cured, but she and Guard Lan were not the kind of people who would stay up day and night for this matter.
The reason why I left late today was because everyone has different physiques and the time it takes to remove the poison is different. And it is impossible to give up halfway, that would mean death. So, after removing the poison in her hand, Baili Feiyue was even later than the Blue Guards, because she had to wait for them to finish removing it before she could start.
The first batch was sent here today, which consists of only about 100 people. It seems that half of them have been dealt with now.
But even Baili Feiyue was exhausted.
This kind of large-scale treatment of people is really not something that can be done by one person.
She didn't have three heads and six arms. Although Su Yi and Xiao Mo helped, she was the one who did the main work. Therefore, when returning from Huichun Hall, Baili Feiyue almost fell asleep in the carriage leaning against Su Yi.
After returning to the general's mansion, I washed, ate, and went to bed.
The next day, Baili Feiyue brought Yinghua with her. When she was about to leave the house, she raised her eyebrows and looked back, "You have followed me quietly from outside Qingfeng Pavilion to here, why don't you come out?"
When these words were spoken, Su Yi and Ying Huan were both a little surprised. Someone was following them?
Then he became alert again.
Baili Feiyue had finished speaking for a while when a rustling sound came from behind the corridor.
A young girl in a light yellow dress walked out timidly. She wanted to run but didn't dare to, and wanted to look at her but didn't dare to.
Yinghuan and Suyi were both a little surprised. Isn't this the Eighth Miss?
Although he realized that the person had no martial arts skills and was clumsy in tracking, Baili Feiyue did not expect that the person who came was Ling Xueer, who was like a quail recently and wanted to bury herself.
Baili Feiyue narrowed her eyes. The little girl was trembling and trying hard to hold back her emotions. It seemed that she remembered the lesson she had taught her before very well.
"Why are you following us?"
"I...I..." I said two "I"s in a row, but I couldn't make any sense of it.
"Aunt Lan asked you to come to me for something?"
Ling Xueer immediately shook her head, "No, mother doesn't know..."
Aunt Lan didn't know, she said, if Aunt Lan knew that her daughter was following her, she wouldn't know what expression she would have on her face. She would probably tie Ling Xue'er up and tie her up in the house.
"Tell me what's the matter. If you don't, I'll leave." It's not that she doesn't bear grudges, but she and Ling Xue'er, the eighth sister, don't have any deep hatred, and she has taught her the lesson before. In addition, she has to give some face to Aunt Lan. Although Aunt Lan may not be loyal to her, she is indeed a person who knows the times and is useful.
It's also useful.
She has had fewer worries about matters in the mansion recently, and it has been proven that Aunt Lan is indeed very useful.
Ling Xueer was really afraid of Baili Feiyue now, she was afraid of her from the bottom of her heart. But she didn't know when, along with her fear, she also had a subconscious and invisible admiration for a powerful sister, although she herself didn't realize it now.
"I...I want to go to the clinic with you...to help, to help." He trembled, his face flushed, and he uttered these words in a halting manner.
Baili Feiyue looked at her earnestly, and Ling Xueer felt so ashamed that she almost burst into tears. She thought she would be severely mocked, ridiculed, or scolded, but she heard her third sister's voice saying lightly, "Okay."
Ling Xueer was stunned for a moment after hearing these two words.
Suddenly my nose felt sore, my eyes felt hot, and my vision became misty and I couldn't see anything.
Su Yi is the person who thinks the young lady’s words are the imperial edict!
Seeing Ling Xue'er still standing there in a daze, he said, "Ms. Eighth, let's go. We are going out. What are you still standing there for?"
Ling Xueer wiped her eyes with the back of her hand. Her steps were still a little out of control, but she finally took the first step and followed.
The two carriages were ready and headed for Huichun Hall early in the morning.
Besides, in another part of Kyoto, Mu Qing, who followed his father to solve a case, returned to Beijing at midnight yesterday. But when he came back, he heard that Baili Feiyue was helping to cure the poisoned people in Rongcheng at Huichuntang.
