After the first fool

Chapter 158 The reason
Sitting in the bedroom, Mo Xiaoran secretly speculated about Mo Qiuyu's future, wondering if Bai Zixu could take back her will, but it would be difficult, she gave a wry smile, and lightly tapped the short table with her index finger.

Xiaozhu had just returned from washing her clothes, her hands were still stained with water, and when she entered the hall, she saw Mo Xiaoran sitting silently on the soft couch, shouldn't Miss Chen do some physical exercise at this time of day?

She frowned strangely, stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Mo Xiaoran's eyes.

"What are you doing?" Mo Xiaoran's eyes rolled slightly, and she asked in a deep voice, her voice was a little hoarse, revealing deep exhaustion.

Xiaozhu asked slightly uneasy: "Miss, what's the matter with you?" Why did you have a terminally ill expression and didn't know how many days to live?

"The one who announced the decree came just now." Mo Xiaoran said casually, but her heart was heavy. No matter how much she hated Mo Qing, after all, the blood relationship could never be severed. At least, under his intentional or unintentional connivance, Mo Xiao Ran lived to be 16 years old, and now, she couldn't do it if she wanted to watch Mo Qing die.

"The emperor made another decree?" Xiaozhu's brows frowned, "What's the reason this time?"

Anyway, there is never a good thing.

Mo Xiaoran sighed slightly, her brows were full of melancholy: "The emperor issued an order to behead the prime minister in front of the Wumen gate in three days' time."

"What--" Xiaozhu screamed sharply, and jumped up from the ground in fright, as if he had been shocked by electric shock all over his body, "How is this possible?" The master has always been very prestigious and highly respected in the court, not to mention, The emperor has always relied on the master, how could he want to behead the master in a blink of an eye?
Xiao Zhu shook his head vigorously, unable to believe it.

"It's true, I'll throw the edict to Mo Qiuyu, and she will help me ask Bai Zixu why." Mo Xiaoran said in a deep voice, her eyes darkened, "Xiao Zhu, he used to treat me badly. ,very bad."

Xiaozhu was stunned for a moment, not understanding why the young lady brought up the past.

"He indulged the people in the mansion to bully me. From wives and concubines to sisters and servants, I lived a life that was worse than a pig or a dog," Mo Xiaoran's original memory of this body appeared in Mo Xiaoran's mind, boundless. Insults, beatings like a storm, filled my memory, "I should hate him, ignore him, and treat him as if he didn't exist."

"Miss..." Xiao Zhu called out distressedly, her eyes were slightly red.

"But when I heard that he would be beheaded, I impulsively wanted to overthrow the guards outside, rush to Bai Zixu, and force him to take back the imperial decree." Mo Xiaoran's mouth twitched slightly The extreme smile, the deepness in her eyes, no matter how she tried to hide it, she couldn't hide it. This body's longing for blood and relatives, "I finally understand that he is my father, and this relationship can never be changed."

Even if he doesn't like her, she still has to fulfill her responsibility as a daughter.

This has nothing to do with feelings, but just the bottom line and principles of being a person.

"Then what do you want to do?" Bai Qingluo's hoarse voice suddenly came from behind, and Mo Xiaoran turned her head quickly, only to see him standing by the window, covered in weathered weather, looking at her.

Xiaozhu had already seen Bai Qingluo's ability to appear and disappear, but after a brief surprise, he bowed and retreated, leaving the bedroom to the two of them, while he was guarding outside, carefully searching the surroundings with imperceptible eyesight, as if he was I was looking for something, but after searching for a long time, I didn't see the person I wanted to see.

Mouth pouted softly, complaining: "Why didn't he come?"

In the bedroom, Mo Xiaoran stared at Bai Qingluo. She found that every time something important happened to her or in the palace, he would appear. Is it true that Wan Li's relationship is as she thought before, that he is also a member of the royal family?

Shaking his head, now is not the time to think about these things, "You already know?"

Mo Xiaoran asked in a deep voice, if he didn't know the news, he probably wouldn't have come here suddenly.

Bai Qingluo nodded slowly, with a hint of worry in her eyes, she looked the same as usual, but the more she looked like this, the more worried he was, "You just said what you want to do?"

Mo Xiaoran was slightly taken aback, and avoided Bai Qingluo's gaze with a guilty conscience. She hadn't made up her mind about what to do, but she couldn't do nothing. She just waited for the prime minister to be taken to the Meridian Gate to behead three days later.

"I don't know yet." She sighed, with a trace of melancholy in her brows.

The corner of Bai Qingluo's mouth twitched slightly, but she was honest enough, "It seems that you plan to do it."

"I don't know, I'm in a mess now," Mo Xiaoran shook her head, "I don't understand, locking Mo Qing is enough, why kill him? Bai Zixu and Mo Qing are grasshoppers on the same rope. How could he have made such a decree for no reason? Even if Mo Qing took part in a book of white ink, there is no need to stab him to death."

This is totally illogical. Bai Zixu's will is tantamount to breaking his own arms. How stupid is he to do such a thing?
Mo Xiaoran couldn't figure it out, so she could only place her hope on Bai Qingluo: "Do you know the inside story?"

Subconsciously, she would always ask him about something she couldn't solve, and every time, he didn't let her down.

Bai Qingluo's eyes flickered slightly, and her thin lips uttered a word: "I know, it was a temporary decision this morning."

Could it be that something happened early in the morning?
"For Bai Zixu to make such a determination, this person is either powerful and powerful, and Bai Zixu dare not fight recklessly, or he is forced to protect himself, so he abandoned the car to protect himself." Mo Xiaoran frowned. , analyzing the current situation, a gleam shot out of his eyes: "But no matter which one it is, I feel that it has something to do with Bai Mo or people from his party."

What can make Bai Zixu break his own arms, now no one can do it except Bai Mo and his henchmen.

The corner of Bai Qingluo's mouth curled into a smile of approval, "You're really smart." With only a few clues, he was able to deduce the matter to be close to the truth. A faint smile swayed from the tip of his heart, "Basically the answer is correct."

Mo Xiaoran ignored his praise, it was no different from praising a pet. She rested her chin in one hand and continued to ponder: "According to Bai Mo's personality, it is impossible for him to embarrass Mo Qing." Because he knows better than anyone else. , Who is the person who wants him to die, and the prime minister is just a shield to be pushed out.

"You know him well?" The coldness in Bai Qingluo's eyes disappeared quietly.

I don't know if it was her illusion, why did she hear a sour smell from his words?
"It's not that I understand it, but I don't think he's the kind of person who would do such things." Mo Xiaoran explained softly. After all, she saw the inner fortitude and integrity in Bai Mo.

Just by his attitude towards Bai Zixu, it is not difficult to see that although he looks cold, he is extremely principled, and he will never betray a loyal person. This kind of person is usually persistent.

"That's right," Bai Qingluo nodded slowly, looking at her eyes that were shining brightly at the moment, her heart trembled slightly, and she had the urge to hide her so that no one could see her. Flashed through his mind, "It's Zhou Jie, the old department before Baimo. He joined forces with several generals to file a joint report, claiming that the prime minister formed a party for personal gain, won over a large number of civil servants, secretly accepted bribes for many years, bought and sold officials."

"What a big crime." Mo Xiaoran gasped. It's not difficult to understand. At that time, Bai Zixu was probably forced to have nowhere to go. If he favored the prime minister again, he might cause criticism from civil and military officials!The only way to do this is to kill the prime minister alone and preserve his bloodline.

"Is there no other way?" Mo Xiaoran looked at Bai Qingluo with a little pleading, hoping that he could think of a way, at least to save the prime minister's life.

Bai Qingluo looked away, unable to bear to look at the pleading in her eyes, "If you want to save the prime minister, you must rob the prison."

But, who would go to Jietian prison for the prime minister?Once the incident happened, the Jiu Clan would be punished.

Mo Xiaoran frowned tightly, as if surrounded by great pain, her expression was slightly gloomy. Bai Qingluo raised her head and rubbed the center of her brows: "At least you are not involved."

It is a fact that the prime minister buys and sells officials. Although this incident happened with Bai Zixu's acquiescence, but now that he is dug out, Bai Zixu can only abandon the prime minister, cut off his own arm, and appease Bai Mo's party.

He has never been a kind person. Since the prime minister dares to do it, he must have the courage to take responsibility. At least, she has not been implicated, and that is enough.

In the world, Bai Qingluo didn't care much about him, but she was one of them.

As for others, he didn't have that much thought to bother.

Mo Xiaoran's cheeks flushed slightly, she glared at Bai Qingluo, and waved his fingers away, "Don't joke with me, I'm really annoying now, no matter what, he is still my father."

If she wanted to watch Mo Qing's head fall to the ground, she couldn't do it!
"Don't do anything stupid," Bai Qingluo warned in a cold voice, as if he had seen through her thoughts, "How many pairs of eyes are watching you now? As long as you make a move, you will be caught and hurt your feet immediately." The prime minister fell , How many people are staring at her back seat?

Mo Xiaoran rolled her eyes, and said nonchalantly, "I know, I know."

Before she could figure out what to do, this man warned her to be quiet, really...

"Stay obediently in Fengqi Palace and don't go anywhere, especially these three days." Bai Qingluo was still worried, and his eyes flickered slightly: "I will send Qingfeng to protect you in case of accidents."

Thinking about it, he should have done almost what he sent Qingfeng and Suilang to do, so he can come back and continue to protect her.

A flash of astonishment flashed in Mo Xiaoran's eyes, and she said with a little dissatisfaction, "You want to spy on me, right?"

"You can think whatever you want." He just needs to make sure that she will not mess around in these three days.

Faced with his domineering, unquestionable and rebellious attitude, Mo Xiaoran stubbornly moved her head away, neither agreeing nor objecting.

"Don't let people who care about you worry about you," Bai Qingluo softened her voice, unconsciously, her eyes were a little softer, looking into her clear eyes, she said slowly.

"I have a sense of proportion." Mo Xiaoran just said such a sentence, and did not respond directly to him. Bai Qingluo felt a little uneasy in her heart, and made up her mind to send Qingfeng to monitor her for twelve hours from tomorrow. Recently.

The next day, Mo Xiaoran found out strangely that there was an extra person outside Fengqi Palace, and the corner of her mouth twitched as she stared at a hidden guard who was hiding on a big tree inside the high wall, using lush branches to cover her figure.

Bai Qingluo really did what he said, and actually sent Qingfeng here.

Mo Xiaoran sighed for a long time, with the breeze, she really didn't know what to do.

Three days, just three days.

Rubbing the center of her brows irritably, just facing Shang Qingfeng's smiling eyes, Mo Xiaoran's heart was blocked, and the corners of her mouth slowly opened a little playful arc, then, she raised her right hand in the air, and raised her middle finger high in the air , Qing was so scared that he fell from the tree. Unexpectedly, at this time, the future mistress was still as tough as ever.

Mo Xiaoran saw his tangled face and the stuffiness in his chest seemed to have dissipated a lot, so she clapped her hands and closed the window, blocking the view from the window.
