Hear her say that.
Ling Sheng couldn't tell what he felt deep down.
So that's it, or is it disappointing?
Ling Sheng spoke in a somewhat obscure voice, "Dad was too harsh just now, don't blame me."
Baili Feiyue raised her eyes and smiled, "Dad, do you want to hear the truth or a lie? If it's a lie, I've never blamed you. If it's the truth..."
Ling Sheng's voice became increasingly difficult, and before she could continue, "Father really didn't expect that they would be so unwilling to tolerate you."
Hehe, Dad, there are so many things you didn’t expect!
Baili Feiyue suddenly didn't want to play those roles of loving father and filial daughter with him.
None of it is interesting.
It might be better to just change it.
She didn't want to be so anxious, but today's palace banquet forced her to change her mind. She had to move this step forward.
He sat down first, taking the initiative, "Dad, please sit down."
Ling Sheng glanced at her seat, and Baili Feiyue got straight to the point, "Dad didn't stand up for me when I was in trouble today. I don't care what you plan to do. Let's be frank. I want to cooperate with you. Not the kind of daughter relying on dad, but cooperation. Like business partners, we are on the same boat."
Ling Sheng frowned, Baili Feiyue continued, "Please listen to me first. Dad, I am confident that I have the bargaining chip you want most, and I can also help you achieve your goal. My condition is that the General's Mansion will be at my disposal from now on! Dad, you must be loyal to me in private!"
Seeing the flash of shock in Ling Sheng's eyes, Baili Feiyue became much calmer.
"I have been considering whether to take your Ling Mansion's ship. Until today. You are qualified to cooperate with me because you can endure the injustice of your own daughter being wrongly accused, being beaten and killed, and being stripped and humiliated in public without changing your expression. I have more confidence in you!"
Ling Sheng was heartbroken and shocked. His daughter's thoughts were always like this - catching people off guard!
Not only did he feel that this daughter was strange, she didn't look like his daughter, Ling Sheng, at all!
He unknowingly forgot that she was his daughter, and he didn't think it was a fairy tale or ridiculous at all. Although it sounded and seemed absurd, it made people subconsciously believe it.
Ling Sheng negotiated like he would with any equal opponent, "You are so arrogant, you want me to be loyal to you. What do you want?"
"Ha, Dad, don't be nervous. I will not rebel, nor will I usurp the throne. I will not let you do anything that goes against your position. I am just tired of being manipulated by others. I am alone in Kyoto. I want to live a better life and have my own power. A power that is truly loyal to me, Ling Jing, and can be used by me, Ling Jing!"
It is unrealistic for her to fight Changsun Wuji alone.
We must use the opponent's strength to fight back. Looking at the entire Dajing court, only Ling Sheng can be used.
Only Ling Sheng has some qualifications to fight with Changsun Wuji!
Thinking of Changsun Wuji, Baili Feiyue lowered her eyelids slightly, hiding the murderous intent that was as raging as a storm in her eyes.
Of course, Ling Sheng didn’t believe what Baili Feiyue said. This was not ambition!
This is simply - horrible!
He, Ling Sheng, is a great general who protects the country. He has always been loyal to Dajing and the Emperor of Dajing.
Now, this daughter is brazen enough to ask her to be loyal to her?
What is the difference between this and plotting to usurp the throne?
He really didn't realize it. Even if he thought his daughter was special, he didn't expect a girl to be so special!
But Ling Sheng is Ling Sheng after all.
"Where are your chips?"
Perhaps, he is looking forward to what kind of surprise such a daughter can give him.
Baili Feiyue tilted her head and raised her eyes. The murderous intent in her eyes had long since disappeared. "Today's palace banquet was full of dangers and bloodshed, but didn't my daughter come out of it safely? Isn't this considered a bargaining chip?"
"in this way?"
"Isn't this enough?" Baili Feiyue blinked.
"Not enough. This is a no-cost business. Your ability will be limited for various reasons, and your father will suffer a great loss. Ability is always unpredictable. Even people with great abilities often have many things they are incapable of doing, and there are things that do not go as planned. What about you?"
"Hey," Baili Feiyue smiled, "Dad is taking this opportunity to teach his daughter not to be too arrogant and to be careful of accidents."
"My daughter has made note of it." A sly look flashed across her eyes, "My daughter has another great gift for you, the gift that Dad desires most in his heart."
…
Lingfu Anyuan.
There was a heart-wrenching cough, and the handsome young man was lying on the bed, with a few more red plum blossoms on the snow handkerchief in his hand.
A beautiful woman with a dull complexion handed him a cup of warm water for rinsing his mouth without changing her expression.
The boy rinsed his mouth and said without complaint, "Mom, it's so late, you should go to bed."
"I will protect you, no matter what happens." The beautiful woman, Aunt Bai, spoke in the same tone as her expression, dull and without any emotion.
Being told this by his own mother, Ling Duannian merely smiled, his thin lips as beautiful as peach blossoms in March slightly pursed, not alarmed at all.
"Mom is afraid that I will die silently." He laughed and tilted his head slightly, "How can it be so easy to die." He hasn't suffered enough. God will never let people die so easily.
Suddenly, he smiled again, "Mom, you'd better step aside. It seems that a beautiful young lady is here to see her son."
Aunt Bai glanced at him and turned away.
Not long after Aunt Bai left, a graceful dark shadow quietly entered Ling Duannian's room.
He pushed the door open carelessly, "Huh? Not asleep? Are you waiting for me?"
Ling Duannian's long eyelashes blinked twice like butterfly wings. Her crystal clear yet textured face was slightly flushed due to coughing. She protested softly, "Sister, don't knock on the door."
Baili Feiyue walked in and closed the door behind her. "You are waiting for me, why would I knock on the door?" She was sure that her ninth brother was waiting for her. How could he sit on the bed and read a book in the middle of the night with all his clothes on?
"Sister is so smart."
"You're not bad either." Baili Feiyue sat down beside the bed, grabbed Ling Duannian's wrist, pinched his pulse with two fingers and began to feel his pulse. He was just casual at first, but his expression gradually changed.
He couldn't help but glance at Ling Duannian.
Ling Duannian seemed not to notice. "Today, I can't attend the Imperial Birthday Banquet of Concubine Hui. But I heard something about what happened at the banquet, and I thought that my elder sister would come to find me. So I dare not sleep. What if I fall asleep and my elder sister can't find me?"
Baili Feiyue had already used his other hand to feel the patient's pulse, and her beautiful brows were slightly furrowed.
"Sister?"
Baili Feiyue glanced sideways and stared at him motionlessly.
"You are so smart, can you guess why I came to see you?"
"Hmm... let me think about it." Ling Duannian smiled innocently, "Sister is a person who never suffers any loss... So, sister, do you want to use my identity to exchange for some bargaining chips from father? After all, sister has made enemies everywhere at the palace banquet today. Without the solid backing of father, sister's future life will be very difficult..."
Even Baili Feiyue was once again shocked by this man's almost demonic mind.
He curled his lips, "Yes, I am here to betray you."
