Bai Zhi knew that someone was standing at the door of the room watching her. There were two tall figures reflected on the exquisite white porcelain teacup. The figure on the left was Ke Zhengming. The one on the right was thinner, standing with his hands behind him. The purple sunflower scent on him entered her nose.

This kind of incense was very precious. Even people from the Ke family may not be willing to use it.

Since she came to the capital, she has only smelled this scent on one person.

Prince Xiao, Chu Feng.

Although she had only seen him a few times, and they never exchange a word, but purple sunflower on his body can make people hard to forget it.

Bai Zhi thought of what his grandfather said last night. He said that Ke Zhengming was a rare loyal minister in the court. He was not only loyal but also straightforward. With his temperament, he could sit in his position today, besides relying on his ability, the main reason was that the emperor appreciates him. Many people in the court excluded him, including Prince Xiao, but he was still standing tall, relying on the emperor’s trust.

Such a person, she naturally wants to help.

Bai Zhi heard the sound of Ke Tong putting on his clothes. Suddenly, she asked: “Er Gongzi, I have always had a question that I don’t understand. I wonder if you can answer it for me.”

Ke Tong bitterly smiled: “You want to ask, why did I contract this disease?”

Bai Zhi answered: “That’s right, Ke Daren is strict in his rule, it is known to everyone in the capital. I don’t think Er Gongzi is like that kind of stray person. Even Ke Daren doesn’t believe you will go to a place like a flower house wholeheartedly. When such an event happened yesterday, he didn’t even ask you about it. I think it’s because he believed that his son is not such a loose man.”

Ke Tong sighed: “I really have never been to a place like a flower house, but I am not saying that I have no responsibility in this. If I didn’t go on a boat cruise with a few friends that day, this would not happen.”

Ke Tong still can’t remember what happened that day. He only just drank a few glasses of wine and then he doesn’t know what happened next. After waking up, he found himself lying in bed with a strange woman.

“So it is an illicit sexual activity under the influence of alcohol?” Bai Zhi asked.

Standing at the door, Chu Feng frowned. How could she discuss this topic with a man?

At this time, Ke Tong replied: “I don’t know. I only drank two glasses of wine at that time, I can’t remember anything else. When I woke up, it was already the next morning.”

No need to mention it, she can already guess what happened.

The second son of the Ke Family was not familiar with how the world works. He doesn’t understand what’s going on. He only blamed himself for going out to drink.

Bai Zhi said: “Er Gongzi is still young. If you encounter something you can’t figure out, you can talk to your elders. Your elders have more life experience than us younger generations. I believe they can help you.”

Ke Zhengming was very grateful. He knew that Bai Zhi was not a talkative person, and she doesn’t care how Ke Tong got his illness. Today, she suddenly asked this question, she must have known that Chu Feng was here. She deliberately did this to blocked his mouth.

After all, he has taken the emperor’s order, and he was rigorously investigating the ethics of the officials. He can’t have this problem in his own home. What qualification does he have to investigate others when his own family has problems?

With this explanation now, Chu Feng should consider a few more words when speaking to the emperor.

Ke Tong had already put on his clothes at this moment. He came out with Imperial Doctor Xu and cupped his hands towards Bai Zhi: “Thank you, Miss Bai, for your guidance. Ke Tong will remember it in his heart.”

Ke Tong was facing towards the door of the bedroom. So when he raised his head after thanking Bai Zhi, he saw his father and Chu Feng standing at the door at a glance.
