"Hmph! You dare to kill your own sister under my nose. Do you really think that I am an old fool and have nothing to do with you?" Bai Yushi still said in a cold voice, but it was obvious that there was pretentiousness in his words. It means a little more.
It was naturally impossible for Bai Xueying not to hear it, so she immediately lowered her head and pretended to admit her mistake, and stopped talking.
When Bai Yushi saw Bai Xueying's meek look, he was quite satisfied after all. He knocked on the table and then continued: "How did I teach you in the beginning? Now that some things have been done, don't leave any harm behind. , what happened to the girl who escaped?"
Speaking of this matter, Bai Xueying also felt a little guilty. This was indeed a mistake on her part. If you use the word "man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations" to describe it, it is really the most appropriate word.
Hongye was actually trained by Bai Xueying from the beginning, but before she was transferred to her side, she was taken over by Bai Yiyi.
There is no shortage of people around Bai Xueying, and even if she is training, she will not only train one, so Hongye is still insignificant in the end. It is precisely because of this that Bai Xueying made a pretense to treat Hongye as her own and placed her beside Bai Yiyi.
I don’t know if it’s more of a nip in the bud, but people who haven’t thought about using it this time actually used it this time.
After coming out of Bai Yiyi's room that night, Bai Xueying made up her mind not to leave Bai Yiyi alone. Only then did she think of Hongye and find the person.
After all, Hongye was the person Bai Xueying placed next to Bai Yiyi. Naturally, Bai Xueying could not say that she would ignore her, so Hongye also reported some situations to Bai Xueying on a regular basis.
Although it is all insignificant information, it can be regarded as a way for Bai Xueying to grasp the red leaves. After all, Hongye cannot be immersed in it all the time and forget his identity in the end.
Bai Xueying couldn't do something like this that was not worth the gain. Hongye has been with Bai Yiyi for several years. If she really wants to betray her original master, it is completely normal. But how could Bai Xueying give Hongye this chance
The tunnel in Hongye's room actually has two exits, the other one is in Bai Xueying's room.
It can be said that Bai Xueying attaches great importance to Hongye, so in order not to arouse other people's suspicions and to facilitate the communication between the two of them, Bai Xueying took advantage of the renovation of the Censor's Mansion and found a group of people who are now passing by. The people opened a tunnel in Hongye's room.
Because the area where Hongye lived was being renovated at that time, not many people went there, and no one discovered it.
Bai Xueying has always been a very cautious person, so from the beginning, in order to prevent others from discovering the tunnel in Hongye's room, she made some additional cover-ups.
For example, it appeared that the tunnel led outside the house, but in fact there was an exception. There was another passage that led directly to her room. However, what Bai Xueying didn't expect was that Hongye would actually use this to escape.
After receiving the news, Bai Xueying suddenly felt as if a rock had been lifted and hit her in the foot, and she felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly.
But Bai Xueying has known Hongye very well over the years. When opening another tunnel in the tunnel, Hongye suggested to Bai Xueying that the tunnel should be opened directly to her home.
As long as people are human, they will have weaknesses, and Bai Xueying remembers these weaknesses clearly. Since Hongye loves her family so much, she will definitely go to see her family when she escapes this time.
Even if Hongye escapes, as long as her family falls into Bai Xueying's hands, there is no fear that Hongye will come back obediently.
After figuring this out, Bai Xueying immediately sent some people to Hongye's house, and sure enough, Hongye showed up at night. At that time, the matter had already become a big deal, and Bai Yushi had already arranged for someone to come forward.
Bai Xueying naturally knew that such a matter should be resolved quickly, not to mention that the Hongye family was now in Bai Xueying's hands. Hongye didn't dare to disobey her order. In this way, Bai Xueying arranged a big show for Hongye.
In order to prevent unnecessary complications, Bai Xueying asked Hongye to commit suicide in front of the Bai family after they found out about them. Although this matter could be considered to have been handled promptly by Bai Xueying, the previous mistakes were made.
Although there are not so many what-ifs in the world and facts are facts, Bai Xueying still can't help but think that if Hongye abandons her family cruelly, then this matter may not be easy to solve now.
It is precisely because of this that Bai Xueying still feels a little guilty when her father mentions this matter.
Seeing Bai Xueying not speaking, Bai Yushi thought she was dissatisfied with what he just said, so he frowned and continued: "Why, are you still dissatisfied with something?"
When Bai Xueying heard this, she quickly shook her head and said, "My daughter doesn't dare. What my father taught me is that this matter was indeed my negligence. I didn't expect Hongye to run away."
Bai Yushi nodded, lowered his tone and said: "Since you can recognize your mistake, then I don't need to say anything more. Although there are indeed some mistakes in this matter, you still did not cause it after all. The big disaster was dealt with in a timely manner, so I don’t plan to pursue it any further.”
After hearing this, Bai Xueying felt a little strange. He originally thought that his father would not let him go so easily. He thought that he would have to give him a small punishment or a big warning after all, but he did not expect that he would end it so easily. .
If you put it this way, Bai Xueying felt that it was very unlike her father's style of doing things.
What Bai Yushi has taught them since childhood is that you have to find ways to benefit yourself, and at the same time, you have to handle things cleanly and not get into trouble or even involve the interests of the family.
Bai Xueying actually knew very well that if Yushi Bai had not reported to the emperor in time and settled the matter this time, according to the attitude of Yan Ling and His Royal Highness, the matter would have been thoroughly investigated.
Even if there is Hongye's confession, I'm afraid he won't be able to deceive them. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that although a seemingly reasonable explanation is actually full of loopholes.
The reason why Bai Xueying did this was just to give everyone an explanation. Because Bai Xueying actually knew very well that if something like this happened, it was impossible for Bai Yushi to just sit idly by and watch.
If you go by Bai Yushi's own words, it doesn't matter how a family fights, as long as it doesn't harm the interests of the family, but in the end it can only be regarded as a conflict between the family.
But it would be different if the family or outsiders were involved. Outsiders are outsiders after all, and Yushi Bai will not allow them to lead wolves into the house and help outsiders deal with his own family.
So the calculation is the same. Bai Yushi will not let this fire burn on his own family, so he will definitely help.
