For a moment, everyone present except Bai Yanqing had different expressions.
"Why doesn't grandma agree?"
Bai Yanqing changed the topic and did not take up Lai Feiyan's words. Instead, she took the initiative and asked Ren. Just now, she said she disagreed.
Although at this moment, Ren's eyes had never left the jade Ruyi, Bai Yanqing did not ignore her, because Ren never said yes from the beginning to the end! Even though she stared lustfully at these rare treasures that Lai Feiyan paid filial piety to her, she still never agreed to Lai Feiyan's request!
Bai Yanqing's words instantly extinguished the light in Lai Feiyan's eyes. In her moment of forgetfulness, she overlooked that her grandmother had indeed never agreed to her request!
Under the gaze of everyone, Ren finally raised her head from the pile of rare treasures. Looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Ren coughed twice to relieve her embarrassment.
"The blood of the Bai family cannot be adulterated."
Although Ren knows that as soon as she opens her mouth, these treasures in front of her will no longer be destined to her, but in order to not be cast aside by the ancestors of the Bai family after her death, Ren can only grit her teeth and close her eyes. , directly rejected Lai Feiyan's request.
Others don't know Ren's temper, but Bai Jingxuan and Bai Yanqing, who are the direct descendants of the Bai family, know it very well! Ren was extremely fond of the Bai family bloodline. Otherwise, why had she resented Ji Jinchu for so many years? Why can't I like Bai Yanqing so far? It's not because Ji Jinchu didn't leave a legitimate son for the Bai family!
The Ren family has always valued bloodline inheritance the most. In Bai Jingxuan's generation, the Bai family only has Bai Yanqing, the only legitimate daughter left. In the future, if Bai Yanqing gets married, then the Bai family lineage will end with Bai Yanqing! This is what Ren has always been most unwilling to do and the most angry thing!
As the direct granddaughter of the Ren family, Bai Yanqing is the only bloodline of the Bai family, and even the Ren family doesn't like her, let alone Lai Feiyan, a granddaughter with a foreign surname?
In recent years, Ren had not tried to persuade Bai Jingxuan, and even resorted to cruel tricks, but failed to persuade Bai Jingxuan to hire another person to fill the house! Bai Jingxuan accepted the truth. In this life, he only has a daughter like Bai Yanqing. He has always been open-minded. In his opinion, his daughter is also the blood inheritance of the Bai family!
Therefore, Lai Feiyan had all the best guesses, but he failed to predict Ren's intentions. No matter how greedy the Ren family is for profit, she will never give in when it comes to the blood of the Bai family. Not to mention that it was Lai Feiyan who gave her such rare treasures. Even if Lai Feiyan gave her a gold mountain, the Ren family would Consider three days and three nights!
This is why, after Bai Furong and the Lai family divorced, Ren and Bai Jingxuan agreed to let Bai Furong re-enter the Bai family clan, but did not agree to let Lai Bizhi enter the Bai family clan.
"Oh? It seems that my granddaughter agrees with my grandmother on this matter!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Lai Feiyan provocatively and saw her face changing, turning pale and red... It was really interesting!
For a moment, Bai Yanqing felt suddenly and extremely comfortable!
Perhaps because she didn't get the answer she wanted in front of Ren and Bai Yanqing, Lai Feiyan's expression suddenly darkened, and her triangular eyes revealed a hint of cruelty!
"This matter is not up to you! Today, I will stay here in the Bai Mansion, waiting for Prime Minister Bai to return home, and let's see how long you can remain stubborn!"
At this time, Lai Feiyan changed her previous hypocritical smile, and her thin face was filled with hatred. She ignored it and sat down. Seeing this, the palace people on the side hurriedly stepped forward, waving fans to cool her down, and brought some fruits and snacks brought from the palace, and put them there diligently. In front of her!
Lai Feiyan enjoyed all this leisurely and contentedly, without caring about Bai Yanqing's opinions.
Bai Yanqing was not annoyed at all. Since she was too lazy to look at Lai Feiyan's triumphant look, she naturally wouldn't stay. She then took Bai Furong and her daughter, without even bothering to say hello, and took them back to her small courtyard.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Mrs. Ren couldn't stay any longer, so she frowned, supported Grandma Shen, and left on her own!
"Auntie, do you blame me for treating Concubine Li like this?"
On the way back, Bai Yanqing couldn't help but ask Bai Furong. She knew that she had a deep grudge with Lai Feiyan, so of course she wanted to give Lai Feiyan some good looks, but after all, Lai Feiyan was Bai Furong's daughter, and Bai Yanqing still had some scruples. If not, how could Bai Yanqing let Lai Feiyan off so easily today?
"As a mother, how can I not feel sorry for my biological daughter? But... I also know that it is Feiyan who has been unable to forgive you all these years..."
Bai Furong sighed deeply. She had already heard from Cai Xing that the reason why Bai Yanqing was so weak was all the fault of Lai Feiyan back then.
Due to her daughter's fault, Bai Yanqing has been frail and has been on the verge of life and death for so many years. Bai Furong cannot erase this guilt. But even if Lai Feiyan caused Bai Yanqing to do this, Bai Yanqing ignored the past grievances and helped herself and her eldest daughter escape from the clutches of the Lai family. This gift of rebirth is something that Bai Furong will never be able to repay in her entire life. .
Bai Furong is contradictory. On the one hand, she is indeed cold-hearted towards Lai Feiyan, her daughter. Secondly, when she saw Bai Yanqing and Lai Feiyan facing off like this, she was a little worried about Lai Feiyan, but also worried about Bai Yanqing and the Bai family.
Bai Furong knew very well what the Bai family's bottom line was. If Lai Feiyan challenged the Bai family and Bai Yanqing again and again, there would inevitably be a winner between them! By then, either the Bai family will show weakness, or Lai Feiyan will admit defeat!
Judging from the current situation, since Bai Yanqing and Lai Feiyan have been feuding for many years, the Bai family will not let Lai Feiyan succeed easily!
Bai Yanqing couldn't see Bai Furong's hesitation, but Bai Yanqing didn't live for Bai Furong. She had her own decision. She wouldn't let Lai Feiyan go just because Bai Furong and her daughter were treating her well these days! Bai Yanqing is not a saint, she cannot repay evil with kindness!
That's what I thought, but when it came to actually confronting Lai Feiyan, Bai Yanqing showed some mercy to Lai Feiyan because she cared about Bai Furong and her daughter!
Looking at the worried Bai Furong, Bai Yanqing subconsciously pulled her sleeves, covered her hands inside the sleeves, and gently touched the letter in her sleeves with her little finger: What should she do? Is it true that I have to sacrifice my ego to fulfill Lai Feiyan?
Impossible, absolutely impossible! Bai Yanqing would never let Lai Feiyan enter the Bai family's genealogy so easily!
In the evening, Bai Jingxuan finally came back from the palace. Bai Jingxuan, who was already exhausted, saw Lai Feiyan sitting in the front hall as soon as he returned home. Bai Jingxuan was even more angry in his heart. Why didn't he realize that Lai Feiyan was so annoying before?
After receiving the news that Bai Jingxuan had returned home early, Bai Yanqing also led Bai Furong and her daughter and hurried over.
When Bai Yanqing and the others rushed to the front hall, they saw Lai Feiyan's triumphant face and Bai Jingxuan's extremely gloomy face.
"Jingxuan, you are finally back!"
After hearing the news, Mrs. Ren came running over with the support of Grandma Shen.
As if she sensed something was wrong with the atmosphere in the hall, Renshi Kankaner stopped her steps and looked at Bai Yanqing without knowing why.
Bai Yanqing and the others had just arrived. How could they know what happened? She was also confused!
"Father!"
Bai Yanqing stepped forward, walked to Bai Jingxuan's side, and spoke softly.
Bai Jingxuan, who was still furious just now, calmed down instantly after hearing his daughter's call. After a while, he regained his composure.
"Could it be the Emperor..."
The only person in the palace who could make Bai Jingxuan so angry but dare not vent it openly and could only feel frustrated secretly was the one in the palace.
Thinking of Lai Feiyan's forgetful words in the afternoon, Bai Yanqing suddenly realized something! Could it be that the emperor really spoke for Lai Feiyan?
"I have been an official for decades, and I have never asked the emperor to personally handle a private matter at home! What a bastard!"
When Bai Jingxuan said "bastard", he didn't know whether he was referring to the emperor or Lai Feiyan.
"Bai Yanqing, I said, the emperor will take charge of this for me! What else do you have to say?"
Lai Feiyan's triumphant look is really eye-catching.
"Father, did the Emperor tell you verbally?"
Bai Yanqing was too lazy to talk to Lai Feiyan, so she simply asked Bai Jingxuan directly.
"Well, after the emperor's court meeting this morning, he deliberately kept me here and dealt with me for a long time. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to give her a legitimate identity!"
Bai Jingxuan pulled Bai Yanqing aside and whispered.
The emperor had a good plan. He wanted to give his beloved a legitimate identity, so he came to trick the Bai family? He actually had a pretty good idea!
"The emperor told me two plans. One is to release Lai Guofu, grant honor to the Lai family, let the Lai family rise, and let Lai Feiyan have an upright natal family. The second is to let Lai Feiyan enter the Bai family tree and change her surname to the Bai family , enter the Bai Family Sect."
Bai Jingxuan frowned. It was obvious that he did not agree with either plan.
"What? Release Lai Guofu?"
Bai Yanqing was shocked. Is this emperor really losing his mind? For the sake of a little concubine, you actually want to release the guilty person? Still want to give Lai family glory?
"It's just... if Lai Guofu is released, what the emperor means is that... the reconciliation between Furong and Lai Guofu will not count. From now on, Furong and Lai Guofu must be allowed to return to Lai's family! Furong will still be the same in the future. It’s Lai’s wife!”
Bai Jingxuan said this in a moderate volume that everyone present, including Bai Furong and her daughter, could hear!
Mother and daughter Bai Furong and Lai Bizhi finally escaped from the Lai family. How could they be willing to return to the hellish Lai family?
After Bai Jingxuan finished speaking, he looked at Ren and then at Bai Furong, as if waiting for their answer.
"Brother...is there no other way?"
At this moment, Bai Furong suddenly realized that the direction in which things were developing was not good.
"Yes, Jingxuan, is there no other way? Who is Lai Guofu? How could you not know? He was sent to the government by our Bai family. If he is really released, with his character of retribution, , it will definitely be detrimental to our Bai family!"
After all, Ren couldn't sit still anymore. Once the interests of the Bai family and her daughter were involved, Ren was no longer ambiguous.
"What, have you discussed it yet?"
Lai Feiyan obviously couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that Bai Jingxuan and the others had been discussing for a long time and no one came out to say anything, Lai Feiyan's patience was exhausted!
"Nonsense! Why did our Bai family raise a white-eyed wolf like you?"
Ren was also furious at this time. She was already anxious because of Bai Jingxuan's words, but now Lai Feiyan was so stubborn that she jumped out and yelled again. Ren couldn't hold it in any longer and cursed back!
Bai Yanqing stood aside and said nothing for a long time. Looking at Ren's anxious expression at this time, she felt a little funny.
People, as expected, only when their own interests are involved will they realize the seriousness of the problem and think of resisting! Previously, didn't Mrs. Ren still look like a loving elder, and was she still rushing to fawn over Lai Feiyan? Why is she so anxious now?
