The relationship between the two was not like a married couple!

As if there was a hand in the dark, pushing them forward step by step until they ended up to this point. It seems like they were doomed by heaven.

Bai Zhi suddenly thought of something, and asked Dongfang Mu: “You just said, Pei Qinghan brought a girl back home and said that it was the child that year?”

Dongfang Mu nodded his head: “Yes, I received the news yesterday. The letter written by the emperor should not be wrong. Pei Qinghan had already taken the child to see the emperor. It’s just the emperor refused and said he would wait for me to return to the capital to deal with this matter. ”

Bai Zhi said: “I thought about something, maybe it has something to do with it.”

Dongfang Mu busy asked: “What’s the matter?”

“On the day before the Xiye Army attacked Huangtuo Village, a strange event happened in the village. The Bai Family’s house suddenly caught fire. The old lady and the second branch family were rescued. However, the four of them were given rat poison. The old lady died. The couple and son in the second branch were rescued by me, but their daughter and the family of the first branch disappeared. I heard from the villagers that before the Bai family had an accident, a well-dressed man came to them, and then the Bai family had an accident.”

Dongfang Mu asked: “Are you suspecting that this person is Pei Qinghan?”

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “It is very likely. Didn’t you say that Pei Qinghan also got the clue of the jade pendant, and then he took the initiative to find the Bai Family?”

Dongfang Mu frowned, he felt something was wrong: “But if he found the Bai family, why would he take a fake? You are also in Huangtuo Village, he can easily find you.”

Bai Zhi sneered: “With the character of the first branch of the Bai family, they will not tell Pei Qinghan the truth. They know very clear in their heart, that if I became the marquis’s daughter, they won’t get any benefits. But if it’s Bai Zhenzhu, the benefits will naturally be endless.”

Dongfang Mu suddenly said: “It turns out to be the case, but Pei Qinghan is not a fool. How can he let them deceive him?”

Bai Zhi replied: “I’m afraid the Bai family told Pei Qinghan that I’m dead. In order to climb Prince Jin, Pei Qinghan took a fancy of Bai Zhenzhu and decided to replace the child that year. The first branch of Bai Family, in order not to let this matter spread, killed Bai Zhenzhu’s parents and younger brother, as well as the old lady, so that they will have no problem in the future.”

Dongfang Mu cursed in anger: “Those beasts, they are all insane.”

Bai Zhi said: “People who don’t belong together, don’t get to live together. They really have a destiny with Pei Qinghan, and they hit it off.”

Dongfang Mu said angrily: “I will never spare them.”

At this time, Zhao Lan recovered her senses, she asked Bai Zhi: “Where is your mother? How is she now?”

Bai Zhi was not quite used to such address, she prefers to call that lady, lady.

“You mean the lady, she is still in a coma. She is very ill. I will try to get her medicine.” The success or failure will be revealed tonight. If the medicine will not be available tonight, Dongfang Wan’er will not survive.

Zhao Lan patted the back of her hand: “Silly child, you should call her mother. Why do you still call her lady?”

Bai Zhi said nothing.

Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “The child is still not used to it, one way or another, she will slowly get used to it.”

Dongfang Mu asked people to arrange accommodation for them. Qi Yunju had many residences, but mostly empty. In order to make things convenient at night, Bai Zhi let Zhao Lan take Ru’er and live in another yard.

After sending Zhao Lan to her room, Bai Zhi was afraid that Zhao Lan would think more, so she said: “I want to refine medicine tonight. The smell will be very strong, and I may not sleep tonight. You live here first. When I’m done refining, we will live in the same courtyard.”
