Delusion
The moment Baili Hongyuan threw out the pass, Yuan Zhi knew that the matter could no longer be concealed.
As the head of the family, he said as calmly as possible: "Yao Niang... You are indeed not our biological daughter, but it is definitely not abducted or secretly adopted..."
Five years ago, Sang Qinshi took Sang Youzhi to Beijing for a blood exchange as usual, but she ran into the Qin family being raided.
Qin Sang was a married woman from one of the five clans and was arrested and imprisoned, but Sang Youzhi was not from the five clans and escaped with her wet nurse.
The wet nurse wanted to take her back to Yangcheng, but Sang Youzhi fell ill on the way. The wet nurse went to Yuan's medical clinic for help and was taken in by the Yuan couple.
"The old woman said Yao Niang was too weak to travel, so she asked us to take her in. She rushed back to the master's house alone to ask for help, and then brought people to pick her up. But the old woman never came back, so we decided to keep Yao Niang..."
After Yuan Zhi finished speaking, he looked at his daughter and said apologetically, "You were originally a daughter of a wealthy family. We were selfish and kept you here, causing you to suffer for so many years. Your parents are sorry for you..."
Qin Yousi understood, but became more calm.
"Father, Mother, although I am the daughter of the marriage between the Sang and Qin families, after the Qin family was in trouble, the Sang family refused to send anyone to look for me, which means they no longer intend to recognize me and want me to die of illness outside. You have treated me like a treasure over the years, and I will never be able to repay such kindness in my lifetime. You are my father and mother!"
When Mr. and Mrs. Yuan heard their daughter's words, they felt relieved and the three of them hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Baili Hongyuan was watching from the side, frowning at the sound of crying. He tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Quiet!"
The family of three then remembered that there were outsiders present.
Qin Yousi looked at Baili Hongyuan and asked, "Master Baili, it doesn't look like the Sang family is here to claim their kinship. Why did you barge in with the Black Armor Guards?"
Baili Hongyuan's expression became more serious. He stared at her and said, "You know me, and you also know the Black Armor Guards?"
He has never introduced himself since he entered the house.
Qin Yousi bit his tongue secretly, but quickly made up a story: "When the capital was in chaos, I was frightened. In addition, I was repeatedly ill and couldn't remember anything before, so I didn't know who I was. But since I recovered from a serious illness last year, I gradually began to remember my childhood. I remembered my life experience and I also remember you. We met at the Qin Mansion, didn't we?"
When Mr. and Mrs. Yuan heard her say this, they were surprised at first, and then relieved. No wonder their daughter had become more sensible in the past six months and knew a lot of things they didn't know.
Baili Hongyuan frowned slightly. He had indeed been to the Qin Mansion often before, but he did not remember having met Sang Liuniang.
But five years ago, Sang Liuniang was only ten years old, so it is possible that he did not notice this little girl.
Seeing that he was unsure, Qin Yousi took the opportunity to change the subject and asked, "Why don't you tell me the purpose of your visit today?"
Baili Hongyuan didn't hesitate and said directly: "I'll take you away."
Qin Yousi was puzzled: "Where are you going?"
Baili Hongyuan asked, "Don't you want to see your biological mother? After being exiled to the northern border, she was eventually redeemed by the Sang family. Although she was divorced by the Sang family, at least she was saved. After she returned home, she didn't see you and searched for you for many years."
Yuan Yaoniang felt sad.
Third Aunt must have had a very hard life these years.
Before Baili Hongyuan came, Qin Yousi also thought about leaving the Yuan family.
Now that Baili Hongyuan wants to take her to find her mother, it is a good opportunity.
Qin Yousi discussed with the Yuan couple, "I want to go with this gentleman to see my biological mother and tell her that I'm still alive and well, is that okay?"
Madam Yuan began to cry reluctantly.
Yuan Zhi comforted her, "Didn't you think it through yesterday? Now it's Yao Niang's own decision, so that's fine."
Yuan Yaoniang quickly explained, "It's not that I don't want you. I will come back. When the time comes, we can discuss how the two sides will get along after I see my mother. I'm sure she will be very grateful to you."
The family of three gathered together and said goodbye for a long time. Madam Yuan then packed Yuan Yao Niang's luggage, took the medicine for the journey, and gave her many instructions. It was not until late at night that she sent Yuan Yao Niang out of the house.
Baili Hongyuan traveled day and night with Sang Youzhi back to Beijing and placed her in his own private residence in Qingshan Lane.
In order to have some peace and quiet, he bought the houses on both sides of the alley and connected them into two courtyards, east and west.
The old servant who opened the door was called Uncle Zhou. He was originally a servant of the Qin family. After the Qin family encountered trouble and was dismissed, he missed his former master and inquired about the whereabouts of the Qin family members everywhere. He collected the bodies and built a tomb for his former master. Later, he was met by Baili Hongyuan and brought back to the capital.
Uncle Zhou recognized Qin Yousi, so when he saw Sang Youzhi, he immediately called out "Second Miss".
Xin Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, don't make a mistake. This is the Sixth Miss of the Sang family."
Uncle Zhou rubbed his eyes in disappointment. He had personally witnessed Lord Baili burying the second girl. How could she still be alive?
"Yes, yes, old man, my eyesight is not good and I made a mistake."
Qin Yousi saw Uncle Zhou silently wiping his tears, and she felt mixed emotions. First, she thought of old times, and second, she was surprised at Baili Hongyuan's affection for the Qin family.
When the Qin family was convicted, the crime involved all five clans. The rest of the relatives and friends who were not implicated tried to hide as far away as possible. Even relatives like the Sang family were willing to give up their own daughter to sever ties with the Qin family.
Now it seems that only Baili Hongyuan has been helping people who have connections with the Qin family.
I never realized before that he was such a loyal and righteous person.
The Baili Hongyuan she knew was clearly a suave, carefree, and playful young man from aristocratic family. Every day, he rode a white horse with a silver saddle, galloping through the Imperial Street of Chang'an, as swift as a meteor, and attracted the attention of countless young ladies.
At that time, she was the most intelligent and favored second daughter of the Qin family. She grew up in a luxurious environment and went to the clan school with her brothers.
Because he had been hanging out with his brothers for a long time, he was familiar with their friends, and Baili Hongyuan was one of them.
At that time, her relationship with Baili Hongyuan was not very good. She couldn't stand Baili Hongyuan showing off his feathers like a peacock, and Baili Hongyuan also didn't like her always following them to the restaurant to disrupt their brothers' fun.
In short, every time they met, it was like a clash of swords, and they had to make some derogatory remarks to each other.
Baili Hongyuan not only has the advantage of being older than her, but also always regards himself as an elder brother to control her. His hands and feet are longer than hers, and his kung fu is better than hers. Every time they quarrel, Baili Hongyuan throws her back to the Qin Mansion like a chick and doesn't play with her. She has no power to fight back!
After all, they should have been considered friends before.
Looking at Baili Hongyuan's cold profile, Qin Yousi felt a little sorry. How could he become the notorious, cold and taciturn leader of the White Deer Terrace Supervisory Office, even worse than the peacock of the past...
Five years can indeed change many people and things.
Baili Hongyuan noticed Qin Yousi looking at him, and turned around to make eye contact.
Some emotions were floating in his dark eyes.
He silently swallowed the breath in his chest and said indifferently: "Follow me."
He brought Qin Yousi to the vacant east courtyard, pushed open the door of the main wing, sat down at the eight-immortal table in the middle with a dignified look, and made a look to Qin Yousi as if he wanted to sit together.
Qin Yousi was confused. He looked at the sky which was about to dawn and said, "Master Baili, what are you planning to do? We've been traveling all night. Why don't we talk tomorrow?"
Baili Hongyuan said, "You look very pale, young lady. I'm afraid you might be ill. Let me feel your pulse."
Qin Yousi asked in surprise, "Master Baili can also treat illnesses?"
She remembered that he always used to make fun of her brothers, saying that it was a waste and a pity that good men should learn medicine and take pulses instead of holding swords to kill enemies!
I hadn't expected Baili Hongyuan to answer, but he unexpectedly said solemnly, "The ability to heal illnesses and save lives is more useful than drawing a sword and killing an enemy."
Qin Yousi was a little surprised, but seeing that Baili Hongyuan insisted on taking her pulse, she had to stretch out her wrist.
I think the people in Bailutai are the most suspicious. They have to check everything with their own hands before they believe it.
Baili Hongyuan took the pulse carefully. As the pulse became clearer, he couldn't help feeling disappointed.
He is indeed a perennial sickly person.
He cursed himself inwardly, thinking that he needed to wake up. Why was he still holding on to unrealistic illusions?
Qin Yousi died a long time ago, died in his arms, he buried him with his own hands, and stayed by his side for seven days, there is no possibility that he was faking his death!
"You've been tired on the journey, Miss Sang, please rest early!"
Baili Hongyuan didn't even look at her again, and left with a wave of his sleeve.
