Bai Lu nodded with a smile.

"I roughly know the reason for the commotion."

"It must be his family's descendants who want to steal my business and look down on my family's milk tea shop being so prosperous."

"So, please, Master Breeze, borrow Mr. Bai's name and go over there."

"..."

When Breeze heard this, he smiled and nodded, "That's natural."

"Please rest assured, Lady Bai. Although the young master is busy now and cannot accompany you all the time, if there is anything, I will go and do it, just like half of the young master is here in person!"

"Tomorrow I will go to Huai County, find the county magistrate, and sue the deputy county magistrate."

"but......"

As he said this, his expression suddenly changed and he felt something was wrong.

"This, this, this..."

"and many more."

"Lady Bai, are you talking about... Deputy County Magistrate Cheng?!"

His expression suddenly changed, and then his voice also changed a little.

He asked anxiously.

"Deputy County Magistrate Cheng, does he have an adopted daughter named Cheng Zhiyi?!"

Bai Lu was stunned when she heard this.

She shook her head and smiled, "Although they both have the surname Cheng, I don't know whether they are relatives...

"

Bai Lu didn’t know, but Wei Feng knew.

He remembered very clearly that Bai Lu probably didn't know Cheng Zhiyi, nor did she know that Cheng Zhiyi was the adopted daughter of Deputy County Magistrate Cheng.

But Deputy County Magistrate Cheng and Cheng Zhiyi knew Bai Lu.

It is possible that the two of them are in collusion and want to harm Bai Lu.

But how should he tell Bai Lu now that the so-called Cheng Zhiyi... has become Bai Qingze's sister? ! And has been given the title of Princess? !

This is how to do? !

If the deputy county magistrate let the cat out of the bag, things would be troublesome.

Now that Cheng Zhiyi has become Princess Mingzhu, the fact should be kept secret from Bai Lu.

No, no, he had to tell the young master about this matter as soon as possible, and hint to White Snake not to let her get close to the deputy county magistrate and Cheng Zhiyi.

Otherwise, there will be a big misunderstanding.

Wei Feng knew what their young master was thinking, which was simply to let Princess Mingzhu fight with those fools in the Bai Mansion.

But Bai Lu didn't know.

Weifeng wanted to tell Bailu, but since the young master didn't say anything, what could he say?

He was also afraid that the vegetables would go bad during the White Dew Festival.

Wei Feng quickly said to Bai Lu: "That... Lady Bai, I know about this matter. I will tell our young master about it later."

"The young master will naturally make the decision for you, Lady Bai."

"Don't worry about the deputy county magistrate."

"As for Cheng Zhiyi, you don't have to worry about her. She's just a woman and she can't do anything earth-shattering!"

"Don't worry, don't worry! We will definitely help you solve this problem, and something like this will never happen again!"

Having said that, he quickly turned around and hurriedly went to find Bai Qingze.

Bai Qingze was not in Huai County at this moment, but in Liangzhou Prefecture.

......

The governor of Liangzhou.

A 30-something thin official with thick eyebrows looked at Bai Qingze with a smile, his eyes full of admiration and said: "...Young talents like you are rare. This time, we captured the rebel leader thanks to you."

"Talents like this really should enter the government. I wonder when Mr. Bai will take the imperial examination."

Bai Qingze smiled and said, "When the imperial examination is held every three years, I will take the exam to become a Jinshi."

He was a juren, one level higher than Gu Liang, but he never talked about it.

The main reason is that the Bai family is too rich and powerful. His aunt is the queen and his father is the minister.

So he doesn't care about these things.

The reason he took the imperial examination was just a side job.

Even if he didn't pass the imperial examination, so what? Could it be that... he has no future? !

The governor of Liangzhou admired Bai Qingze very much.

"You are really amazing. I wish my son was as amazing as you..."

"Master Dongfang, thank you for your praise."

"..."

"Mr. Bai, you were injured while capturing the rebels. You should just stay in Liangzhou Prefecture for the time being."

"Although His Majesty has ordered a thorough investigation of the rebellion, it has been so long and no one in the government or the public has found anything yet?!"

"Maybe the Prime Minister is overthinking it. They are just horse thieves, not rebels. I don't think there will be any big disturbance."

"In that case, it would be nice for us to have some food, drinks and fun here for now."

“It’s a good day.”

"There are still many things to do in Kyoto... If I can't find out the truth after a while, I will report to His Majesty."

Anyway, he is a young man in his 20s, so what does it matter if he is found out or not? Can the emperor punish him? !

Bai Qingze smiled and said nothing.

He already had doubts in his heart -

Everyone says that Lord Dongfang of Liangzhou Prefecture is an honest official. If they focus on investigating the rebellion, I'm afraid Lord Dongfang will be very happy.

Based on the world's reputation and understanding of him, he would definitely not say this, allowing himself not to investigate the rebels... to be passive and slack in government affairs.

There is something fishy about this.

During this period of time, he and Lord Dongfang in Liangzhou Prefecture have been investigating the rebels, but they have been investigating for such a long time and still have not found anything.

Then there are basically only two possibilities.

The first possibility is that those rebels are just ordinary horse thieves who want to burn, kill and loot, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

The second possibility is that they have some collusion with government officials.

But ordinary horse thieves are naturally not that powerful... The people under Bai Qingze have come into contact with those hostile forces, and their methods are not like those of ordinary forces.

Moreover, the young prince was captured by them, how did they know that the young prince was also there? How did they have such good information?

Therefore, it is very likely that they were in collusion with people in the court.

Bai Qingze thought about this without showing any emotion in his eyes. He smiled at Lord Dongfang.

"Yes, I am tired from investigating the rebels during this period. I want to take a rest next."

"Please keep it a secret for me, Lord Dongfang."

Mr. Dongfang immediately revealed a meaningful expression. He nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, we are friends, hahaha..."

As they were talking, a servant suddenly came in and reported: "Master Dongfang and Master Bai, Master Breeze is here with two guards."

"He came from Huai County and said he had something important to report to Master Bai."

"Go, go, go."

Lord Dongfang didn't care what the important matter was, he only cared about the rebels.

After he waved his hand, Bai Qingze hurried out.

Looking at his back, Lord Dongfang's smile slowly faded, replaced by a hateful expression.

With a cold expression, he ordered the guards: "Remember to kill the rebel leaders we captured today. Don't leave any alive!"

"If that Bai guy finds out, we'll be in big trouble!"

The guard lowered his head, his eyes fierce: "Yes!"

"But... Mr. Governor, do we need to kill the man named Bai as well?"

Lord Dongfang nodded, his eyes indifferent: "Tonight."

"Our master can't wait."

......

Outside the house, Breeze was waiting anxiously.

When he saw his young master coming out, his eyes lit up and he immediately stepped forward and whispered, "Young Master!"

"Something serious has happened."

Bai Qingze was stunned, "What's the big deal?"

he asks.

Weifeng's eyes were still sharp. He saw the wound on Bai Qingze's arm, which seemed to be caused by a thief's knife.

Today he was still wearing a moon-white robe, which looked bloodstained and scary, but now... it was not the time to care about this.

Wei Feng swallowed his heartache and quickly said to his master: "Master, you don't know! There are some problems with Bai Niangzi!"

"Deputy County Magistrate Cheng is not a good person. He seems to have teamed up with Cheng Zhiyi and wants to harm our White Snake and ruin her reputation...blah blah blah..."

After he told Bai Qingze what happened, Bai Qingze's face changed.

Before, he was troubled by the fact that there was no evidence to prove that there was anything wrong between Cheng Zhiyi and Deputy County Magistrate Cheng, and that Bai Lu was his real sister.

Now... they have done it themselves, so doesn't that mean there is evidence? !

Bai Qingze immediately said, "Then let's write a letter and send it back to Kyoto, asking the eldest and second brothers to tell me about Cheng Zhiyi's situation, and then we will tell them about the situation here."

"Let's say... there is a young lady here, she is most likely our biological sister, Princess Mingzhu should not be..."

Bai Qingze took a deep breath, his eyes sparkling, and he slowly said, "It's really like searching for something without any effort, but now it's found without any effort."

"I was still struggling with how to find Cheng Zhiyi, but I didn't expect... they would just pop up on their own."

"Later, we can use this incident as evidence to prove that Bai Zhiyi's identity is flawed and that Bai Niangzi is my real sister."

"Then... wouldn't White Lady be the princess?"

Breeze said somewhat happily.

Bai Qingze nodded and his eyes softened.

"Yes."

"And given my aunt's personality, she might even confer the title of county princess on my sister's seven daughters."

"If that's the case, it would be great!"

Wei Feng was very happy and immediately smiled at Bai Qingze and said, "Then I will send the letter right away."

"Besides that, is there anything else you want to say to the eldest and second young masters?"

"Of course, if they have time, they can come over as well..."

He paused when he said this, then looked up at Wei Feng with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"You really reminded me now. If you hadn't said it... I would have almost forgotten it."

"The situation is special now. They have to come to Huai County, Liangzhou, to Lianhua Town to look after Bai Lu. My situation is very difficult and I cannot be distracted."

"If they don't come, you will all send half of your people to Lianhua Town to look after Bai Lu. Do you understand?"

"Remember to keep a low profile and don't let others know that we have a good relationship."

As he spoke, his eyes darkened.

He didn't know what the situation was with the rebels here, it seemed quite complicated, so he didn't want to involve Bai Lu.

After that, he didn't want to go there to find Bai Lu anymore.

He wants to stay here for a while.

It would be better to let the eldest and second brothers send someone, or they themselves go to Lianhua Town to look after Bai Lu and investigate the matter of Cheng Zhiyi.

After seeing his young master had arranged this matter, Wei Feng nodded with a smile, "Sir, I understand what you said."

"I will go back and write letters to the two gentlemen!"

"Go ahead. Remember to be careful and don't let others know that I sent a letter to my eldest and second brothers."

"I understand, sir."

Having said that, Breeze went out happily.

After he went out with the guards, Bai Qingze returned to the house.

In the room, Lord Dongfang gave him the same smile as before and said with a smile.

"I don't know what your men want from you."

"Oh, something happened at the Jixiang Restaurant."

"We, the Bai family, have too many businesses throughout Dawu. It's very troublesome and cumbersome to handle."

As he spoke, Bai Qingze showed a helpless expression on his face, which was so real that it could be mistaken for the real thing.

Hearing this, he didn't say anything, and Lord Dongfang nodded.

"..."

The night wind is always quiet, but tonight is destined to be extraordinary.

Later generations recorded: "In the 13th year of the Kaiqi period of Dawu, Liangzhou Prefecture rebelled. The governor of Liangzhou Prefecture, Dongfang Li, led 50,000 rebels and wanted to capture the third son of the Bai family, who served as the Grand Tutor in the 23rd year of the Kaiqi period, alive and threaten the emperor with his life. The Grand Tutor was shot by 23 poisonous arrows at that time and his whereabouts are unknown..."

......

After happily sending letters to the eldest and second sons of the Bai family, Weifeng ran back to Lianhua Town.

As long as the eldest son and the second son's men come over, their problem will be solved perfectly.

Looking back, I'm sure White Snake wouldn't know about those dirty things.

As for the Bai Mansion, we should wait until Princess Mingzhu has dealt with Princess Ruyu and that bitch Xie before taking Bai Lu over.

At that time, their young master will certainly ask the Queen to give White Snake an extremely honorable title.

When Weifeng came back, Bailu had just returned from the Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop. Seeing Weifeng sitting in their house, she smiled at him.

"How is it, Master Breeze?"

Wei Feng smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Lady Bai, there will be no problem with this."

"I, Breeze, will take care of it for you!"

"Just wait for the deputy county magistrate to come to you with gifts and apologize."

Bai Lu smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Breeze asked, "Then Lady White, is there anything you need me to do?"

Bai Lu smiled and said, "Now, there really is something that happens to require your help."

"The village chief and my aunt have returned to Xiaohe Village. I will give them a day off tomorrow. There is no one to help me. Can you help me with some heavy work?"
