Zhang Ren'an, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Bai Yu'an knew it. He was brought here by Mr. Wei, the minister of the Ministry of Industry. Wei Shangshu and Princess Jianing made Bai Yu'an have to think too much.
If my cousin really opens this topic, what will happen next is unpredictable.
Bai Yu'an looked at Bai Yuanqing hurriedly: "Cousin, it's still too late to turn back now. I will go with my cousin to return the questions now."
Bai Yuanqing's face froze: "What is Yu'an afraid of? Since Mr. Zhang gave it to me, why can't he tell it himself?"
Bai Yu'an stared at Bai Yuanqing: "This matter is really unclear."
"If Zhang Ren'an bites you back and says that you forced him to come up with the questions, my cousin will not be able to defend himself."
"Behind Zhang Ren'an is Wei Shangshu, and behind Wei Shangshu is the Queen Mother. Can my cousin fight against the person the Queen Mother wants to protect?"
Bai Yuanqing's face was still reluctant: "Yu An's thinking is too complicated. What is there in me that he wants to plot against me like this?"
Seeing Bai Yuanqing's appearance, Bai Yu'an frowned deeply and sighed, "What if it's against me?"
"I rejected Princess Jianing's marriage proposal before, and now this time comes again. Maybe my cousin will be used to blackmail me. No matter what, my cousin won't be able to escape unscathed."
As he spoke, Bai Yu'an held Bai Yuanqing's wrist again: "Cousin, you listen to me. Before the letter is opened, there is room for change. Come with me to return the letter."
Bai Yuanqing looked at Bai Yu'an with disappointment in his eyes: "Thankfully, I told you this as soon as I came back, but instead of showing any joy, you are worried that you will be harmed."
Bai Yu'an was stunned for a moment, then said: "Why does my cousin miss me so much? By doing this, isn't my cousin putting himself in danger?"
Bai Yuanqing snorted coldly and stretched out his hand to Bai Yu'an: "It seems that Yu'an and I can't get along. Please return the letter to me."
Bai Yu'an took a step back: "Cousin, I can't let you make any more mistakes."
Bai Yuanqing's face showed a gloomy look: "Yu'an, to be honest, you just refuse to help me."
"You have Chief Shen behind you to support you, what are you afraid of?"
"Even if this is a trap, isn't it an easy thing for Shen Shoufu?"
Bai Yu'an looked at the expression on Bai Yuanqing's face and suddenly felt strange: "Cousin, the relationship between me and Chief Shen is not what you think."
"Besides, this is cheating after all! Regardless of whether it's a trap or not, my cousin can't do this."
Bai Yuanqing's face suddenly became a little scary: "Bai Yu'an, you have been going smoothly since you were a child, and you are excellent at everything. How do you know that it took me several years to pass the exam?"
"Jinshi takes the exam only once every three years. How many more three years do I have?"
"I'm already over thirty, so just help me. Even if something happens, I won't hurt you."
Bai Yu'an thought Bai Yuanqing was crazy. She shook her head and her voice trembled: "Cousin, do you know that cheating in the scientific examination will result in beheading."
Bai Yuanqing growled at Bai Yu'an: "This question was given to me by Mr. Zhang. What did he frame me for?"
"Yu'an, please give me the questions quickly. At worst, I don't want you to do the exam questions for me."
Bai Yu'an reluctantly put the envelope behind him: "Cousin, I can't give you this."
"I really do it for your own good. As long as my cousin takes this question, he might be threatened by others and be led around by the nose. Is this what my cousin wants?"
Bai Yuanqing rushed towards Bai Yu'an, squeezed Bai Yu'an's collar tightly, and growled: "This is the closest opportunity I have to becoming a Jinshi! I must succeed!"
Bai Yu'an felt that Bai Yuanqing was crazy and was carried away by fame and fortune.
The collar around his neck was slightly tight because Bai Yuanqing had lifted it up. His body was being shaken by Bai Yuanqing, and his somewhat angry voice could be heard in his ears: "Give it to me quickly!"
"I asked you to give me the envelope quickly!"
Bai Yu'an looked at the man in front of him who was a little out of control, lowered his voice, and said softly: "Cousin, please be more awake. Even if there is no trap here, can you feel safe with it?"
Bai Yuanqing's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Bai Yu'an with anger in his eyes: "Bai Yu'an, I am your cousin, give it to me quickly!"
A Tao, who was dragged to the kitchen by Grandma Wang outside, heard the noise and quickly looked over and opened the curtain to see. As soon as he came in, he saw Bai Yuanqing pulling Bai Yuan's collar and yelling.
A Tao was frightened, and quickly walked over and pulled Bai Yuanqing's hand away, panicking: "Master Yuanqing, what are you doing?"
Bai Yuanqing shook A Tao's hand away and moved his hand behind Bai Yu'an, trying to take the envelope from her hand.
Bai Yu'an knew that he couldn't persuade Bai Yuanqing now, so he could only escape with all his strength, and asked A Tao to hug Bai Yuanqing first.
But how could Ah Tao hold Bai Yuanqing in his arms? Seeing Bai Yuanqing trying to pounce on Bai Yuan again, Ah Tao quickly picked up the broom from the ground and hit Bai Yuanqing on the head.
Bai Yuanqing froze, staring at Bai Yu'an in disbelief, and then fell down.
Bai Yu'an was stunned and quickly knelt down to support Bai Yuanqing: "Cousin?"
Bai Yuanqing didn't react at all when he fell to the ground. Bai Yu'an turned pale and stretched out his hand to touch the bottom of Bai Yuanqing's nose. Fortunately, he was still breathing.
She checked Bai Yuanqing's head again, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no blood coming out.
At this time, Chang Jing ran in from the kitchen and saw Bai Yuanqing on the ground. He asked Bai Yuan in confusion: "Why is daddy sleeping on the floor?"
Bai Yu'an forced a smile: "Your father is too tired."
She looked up again and glanced at A Tao, who was still holding the broom in his hand, his face pale and obviously frightened: "Hurry up and help my cousin go to the house with me."
Only then did A Tao react and quickly followed Bai Yu'an to lift Bai Yuanqing up.
Putting Bai Yuanqing back on the bed, Bai Yu'an stood in front of the bed and looked down at Bai Yuanqing's dizzy appearance, with apologetic eyes.
She turned to A Tao and said, "You stay in the yard and take care of her while I go out."
With that said, he walked out of the house.
A Tao followed Bai Yu'an into the back room and asked, "It's now, where are you going, Master?"
Bai Yu'an took the letter in his hand and said to A Tao: "Go out and return something."
After saying that, he just straightened his robe slightly and walked outside.
A Tao escorted Bai Yuan to the door and looked at Bai Yuan getting into the carriage before she regained her composure.
Bai Yu'an sat on the carriage, looking at the envelope in her hand and thinking deeply. She opened the curtain and looked at the scenery passing by outside, and then hurriedly said to the coachman: "Turn around and go back."
Bai Yu'an had just been thinking about it on the carriage. If he took it and returned the letter now, he might anger Shilang Zhang and feel that his cousin was ungrateful, so he would target his cousin later, or use other methods on his cousin.
It would be best to let Shen Jue return the letter.
Let them understand that Shen Shoufu already knows about this, and asking them not to do those little tricks behind his back can also show that their cousin is innocent and upright.
They were also asked to guess the relationship between their cousin and Chief Shen.
With Shen Jue's intimidation, they would never do anything to their cousin again.
