Bai Zhenxi straightened his expression and said seriously, "Teacher, I don't think Chi Li can marry the Fourth Prince."

Chi Tao became interested: "Why are you suddenly concerned about your sister's affairs? The Fourth Prince didn't agree? That shouldn't be the case. He will definitely agree for your sake."

"She is not my sister. If she heard it, she would definitely make your whole life uneasy." Bai Zhenxi recalled how Chi Li started cursing at him as soon as she saw him.

Chi Tao picked up the wine jug, took a sip of wine and said, "She expressed her dissatisfaction with you because she felt that you had taken away her beloved father." He felt that even if his daughter had killed someone, she must have done nothing wrong.

"She is not smart. Now she is determined to marry into the royal family. I can't stop her. The Fourth Prince is barely a good destination for her." Chi Tao said worriedly.

"I asked her, and she said she didn't want to." Bai Zhenxi lowered her head, trying to hide the guilt in her eyes.

"My daughter has grown up. I really don't understand what she is thinking. She insists on stirring up the mess in the royal family. You said my previous proposal was so good. Let her marry you. You grew up together. What a good fate." Chi Tao said with sorrow.

"What a pity, my proposal was criticized by you two. Hahahaha, do you still remember what you said at the beginning?" Chi Tao couldn't help laughing when he thought of Bai Zhenxi's expression of despair at that time.

Bai Zhenxi certainly remembered how frightened he was at that time. He said firmly, "I absolutely cannot marry Chi Li. Even if she were the only woman left in the world, I would not love her."

Chi Li's reaction was even more intense than his. She looked at Bai Zhenxi with disgust and said, "I hate him. I would never marry him even if I had to jump off a mountain. Besides, I already have someone I love."

Chi Tao realized at that moment that it was no exaggeration to say that the two of them were the people that the other person hated the most.

"Well, never mind. I don't want to interfere with her thoughts. Let's just let nature take its course." Chi Tao said with a sigh.

Bai Zhenxi raised the corners of his lips, finally satisfied.

"Oh, by the way, Chi Li married a concubine." Bai Zhenxi said casually.

"What?" Chi Tao thought he had misheard and asked again, "What is she doing?"

"She! Married! A! Concubine!" Bai Zhenxi said in a clear voice, enunciating each word.

Chi Tao's face was filled with a mixture of various emotions, which was quite funny. Finally, an expression of mysterious pride was frozen on his face.

Bai Zhenxi thought he had seen it wrong, and asked, "Teacher, are you almost mad to death?"

Chi Tao rolled his eyes and said, "Chi Li is so unconventional, she is worthy of being my daughter."

Bai Zhenxi wasn't too surprised. She said sincerely, "They are indeed father and daughter, but isn't she afraid of being criticized for being so ostentatious? Teacher, you should teach her a lesson."

"That makes sense. I'll pack up and go find her. How can I do such an absurd thing while living in someone else's house? It would be fine if I were at home." Chi Tao said, gently slapping his hand on the table.

Bai Zhenxi had achieved his goal again and was in a good mood. He stood up and prepared to leave, and asked considerately, "Teacher, do you want to go with me? It will be quick."

"No need. I'm too old to be a fast horse." Chi Tao refused without thinking.

Bai Zhenxi nodded, took two steps toward the door, and then turned around and asked, as if she had thought of something, "Teacher, do you know what kind of blue-shou mushroom it is?"

Chi Tao frowned: "What? I've never heard of it."

The teacher is so useless! Bai Zhenxi thought, I should find a chance to ask other people later. If I find the answer, it will be an apology gift to Chi Li.

He hadn't meant to complain, he just said it casually. But the teacher took it to heart, who could he blame?

----------

Chi Li has been lazy and gluttonous these days, but he has learned a lot about the situation in this mansion. This is all thanks to Liuguangliucai.

The two men used Liuguang's tragic life experience to successfully become the object of sympathy of all the servants, and all the gossip and secrets in the mansion were successfully passed to their ears.

"So the reason there are no male heirs in the mansion is because the Marquis is inhumane?" Chi Li's eyes were surprisingly bright with excitement as she chewed the chestnut cake.

Liuguang munched on the pastry Chili had stuffed in her mouth and said, "That's what they all said. Otherwise, how could they not have a son? This huge mansion has no one to inherit it. I'm afraid it can only be handed over to the young lady's future husband."

"Why can't he be humane? Didn't he have three children?" Chi Li asked puzzledly.

Liu Cai came forward and quietly took a piece of Jade Lotus Cake from the table and said, "I heard it's related to the deceased lady?"

"Ah? After the death of his wife, the Marquis was so sad that he couldn't be human?" Chi Li guessed.

Liu Cai scoffed at this statement: "How is that possible? Only in storybooks can there be such a character as the one you described."

流光点头表示认同,她压低声音说:“听说是因为侯爷年轻时发誓只娶夫人一个,结果违背了誓言,所以夫人就将侯爷揍得不能人道了。”

"It's so explosive, but I have to say..." Chi Li looked at the two of them.

Liuguang and Liucai added to Chi Li's unfinished words in unison: "Well done!"

[I want some cakes too, Chili. You'd better feed me quickly, or I'll make you suffer.] The big white goose came again, flapping its wings.

"What is the system yelling about? Is it bored?" Liuguang knew that the big white goose named System was the young lady's least favorite pet, so she gladly joined the team that abused the big white goose.

[Is that human language? Chi Li, I'm really going to get mad. My mouth is incredibly strong right now. If I accidentally hurt you, don't blame me.] The big white goose threatened.

"The system is hysterical, ignore it." Chi Liquan pretended not to hear the system's shouting.

[I'm really tired. Let me tell you an important plot point. I have to eat both the brown and green pastries on your table.]

The system has been obsessed with it ever since it stole food last time. It doesn’t understand how hard life it had lived before because there is such a delicious food in the world.

Chi Li finally waited until the system surrendered, and was so moved that she agreed to it without hesitation.

[In midsummer, the palace will hold a banquet. At the banquet, Chi Li instigated He Wanyue to drug the Second Prince, Jiang Wenjing. After the two succeeded, they became engaged.] The system said.

"How could the original owner do such a thing when she liked Jiang Wenjing so much? Could it be that Jiang Wenjing asked the original owner to do it?" Chi Li didn't believe that there was anyone stupid enough to drug someone and send them to the bed of the person they loved.

"Anyway, that's how the plot is written. I want some cakes, Chi Li, feed me quickly." The system said impatiently.

Chi Li picked up a piece of chestnut cake and threw it at the goose's mouth and said, "You still need someone to feed you? Why don't you go to heaven?"
