Because Emperor Wu Xuan favored Princess Jing'an first, almost no one doubted the death of Zhenbei Hou, not even Bai Xianyu himself.

The Zhenbeihou clan was a family of military generals, loyal to generations, and married to the eldest princess. In the eyes of others, they were royal people. There were endless wars at that time. Why did Emperor Wu Xuan do such a thing as cutting off his own arms?

This is one of the reasons why no one doubts it.

I originally thought that the Bai family was the first one that Emperor Wu Xuan wanted to get rid of after the world was settled. Now it seems that he no longer knows how many tricks he has done in secret and how many innocent people have died.

Bai Xianyu's heart felt cold, and he stared at the man in front of the desk with a deep gaze. I am afraid that even Xie Xingyun had not suspected that in his previous life, after he had discovered Emperor Wu Xuan's conspiracy, he only chose a roundabout strategy and secretly

Brother, they moved.

In this life, he must have never thought about taking Emperor Wu Xuan's life.

She narrowed her eyes and said, "Brother Su, everyone wants to ask me for a fortune, but what do you want to ask for?"

The soft wind blew from the window lattice, gently brushing against the skin. Xie Xingyun leaned back and looked at her, "Then what hexagram should I ask for according to what the master said?"

The fact that she can't be sure now doesn't mean that Xie Xingyun can't be sure. Even though he is in the imperial mausoleum, he must have a way to contact the outside world.

Regarding the death of Zhenbei Hou, she could not guarantee that her speculation was true, but Xie Xingyun was so smart. She only had to click on him and he would know something fishy. He would investigate the rest of the matter himself, far better than her.

It's much faster to come and investigate.

Bai Xianyu stared at him and said, "Brother Su, have you been suffering from insomnia and dreaming lately, and have you forgotten the content of your dreams when you wake up?"

Xie Xingyun didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd, so he became a little interested in it and said cooperatively: "Yes, I'm just tossing and turning, and I can't sleep at night."

"Let me do the math." She pinched her fingers in a serious manner, frowned, and said half-seriously, "Did any of Brother Su's relatives die in vain?"

The smile on Xie Xingyun's lips gradually faded, the aura around him suddenly condensed, and the temperature in the room dropped sharply.

"Many dreams are easy to forget, but they are a dream for the ancestors."

Bai Xianyu said this, looking at the man's gloomy face, she felt a little scared.

There was no movement in the room for half a quarter of an hour. Xie Xingyun didn't speak and Bai Xianyu didn't move either, just standing quietly aside.

After a while, Xie Xingyun finally made some movement. He walked towards her, with a calm expression on his face. He lowered his head, and a familiar low and magnetic voice sounded in her ears, "When did you recognize me?"

?”

Bai Xianyu was not surprised. When she realized that Xie Xingyun and she might have had the same experience, she no longer wanted to hide it. She understood the pain of losing a loved one. Compared with it, the two of them were

Personal grudges don't matter.

He has the right to know.

And she was just respecting his wishes in the name of divination.

If he wants to get to know her, then he will naturally take the initiative to confess. If he doesn't want to, then there is no harm in continuing to pretend that nothing has happened.

Bai Xianyu raised his eyes, "When we were in the ancestral hall."

The light in Xie Xingyun's eyes disappeared, and his chest was sore and unspeakable, "Why don't you expose it?"

"I thought you had your reasons for doing this."

A long silence stretched between the two, and they were so close that they could hear each other's unsteady breathing.

Xie Xingyun glanced at her and looked away, "What do you mean by what you said?"

Bai Xianyu didn't think that he couldn't hear it. There were only a few people in the world who could be regarded as relatives by him, and there was only one person who might have died in vain.

He just wanted to confirm.

"You should know what I came to the imperial mausoleum for, right? Even if you didn't know it before, you should understand it now after seeing the things I do." Bai Xianyu felt a familiar sense of oppression in front of him, which was strange to say.

Strangely, when he dressed as "Su Qingbai", he was obviously the same person, but he felt completely different.

Listening to what Xiao Zheng said, Xie Xingyun has had the blood of many aristocratic families on his hands in the past few years, and his already strong aura has now become even colder and sharper. Just one glance can scare people to the point of weakness.

Even in front of her, I couldn't hold it back.

Bai Xianyu was inexplicably nervous, as if he had been chosen by a master to answer a question in school, "I found that the relationship between Emperor Wu Xuan and Xian Xian was a bit strange. The Yingluo Pearl is a kind of peony. Xian Xian liked it the most during his lifetime, but he avoided it.

Snake and Scorpion, I was the closest to him at the Lantern Festival that day, and I saw clearly that when he mentioned the Yingluo Orb, his whole face changed, and that deep disgust didn't seem to be fake."

"So you're suspicious?"

"I suspect that Xiang must have done something that made Emperor Wu Xuan hateful during his lifetime, and this matter is very likely related to the Yingluo Pearl, and maybe... to my mother."

Bai Xianyu himself was a little unsure about the last few words, but they were just guesses. After removing all the impossible guesses, the remaining one, no matter how impossible it was, must be the truth of the matter, "...and then I thought,

If Emperor Wu Xuan was partial to Princess Jing'an one after another, so he hated her because of love, then no matter how deep the friendship between him and Princess Jing'an is, there will inevitably be estrangement."

"But no, do you think that Emperor Wu Xuan is too indulgent towards Princess Jing'an? Even if he is good to his biological sister, he is not that good."

When Emperor Wu Xuan first came to the throne, the situation was precarious, and there were almost no generals available in the court. In his hands, nearly one-fifth of the country was lost. If his elder brother hadn't killed him in a sea of ​​​​blood, his position would never have been so stable.

And at that time, he was too kind to Princess Jing'an. He didn't care about the silks and silks, and the princess mansions everywhere. He also spent huge sums of money to build a palace for her, with hordes of servants, fine clothes and fine food. It is said that Princess Jing'an will not be married in the future.

When she left the cabinet, Emperor Wu Xuan also wanted to find a face for her. There was no big or small matter, and the only thing that remained the same was that it would cost a lot of money.

When Bai Xianyu was playing in the street when he was a child, he would hear people scolding Princess Jing'an in the street from time to time, scolding her for causing harm to the country and the people, and not being worthy of the position of princess. Even historians ordered her to remonstrate, but Emperor Wu Xuan ignored them all.

"So suppose that if he really did something disgusting to that woman, and he wanted to destroy the daughter she really loved, and wanted her to be infamy for all eternity, and he was in stark contrast to her, wouldn't it make sense?

?”

Xie Xingyun said nothing, his eyes fell on the top of her hair, as if he was deep in thought.

"I know this hypothesis sounds a bit unreliable, but you might as well think about it. Sometimes you can get closer to the truth unintentionally, right?" Bai Xianyu continued: "It's a pity that after doing so much, Wu still let Wu

Emperor Xuan was disappointed. After Princess Jing'an met the Marquis of Zhenbei, she restrained herself a lot. After having you, she became more stable. However, this was not what Emperor Wu Xuan wanted to see, so the Marquis of Zhenbei died.

In the chaos of suppressing bandits, the cause of death was that someone cooperated with others inside and outside."

She said: "Xie Xingyun, does this sound familiar to you?"

Xie Xingyun's pupils shrank slightly and his fingers clenched into fists. Upon closer inspection, he was trembling slightly. He didn't know whether it was shock or anger.

Her eldest brother Bai Tan was trapped in an isolated city and waited for a long time for rescue. In the end, he ran out of ammunition and food. However, reports came from the front that someone had collaborated with the enemy and treason, which was why the food and supplies were delayed.

Everyone was saddened by the death of a famous general.

When the news came, Bai Xianyu did not doubt Emperor Wu Xuan. Her eldest brother was a hero and a loyal minister. Why did he want to take his life?

But the fact is that they have never seen Emperor Wu Xuan's face clearly.

He always played the role of a harmless emperor, pitying his sister-in-law, personally feeding her apples with arsenic, and letting her bear the scorn she shouldn't have to bear. However, everyone followed his wishes and no one blamed him.

Foolishly, they all pointed their fingers at a woman who had not left the cabinet.

When she realized her mistakes, wanted to make amends, married her husband, and wanted to start over, she lost her husband when she was a teenager and raised her young son alone.

After the young emperor ascended the throne, he pretended to give up power and become his amiable Supreme Emperor, but secretly almost caused the Bai family to die in vain.

One after another, Bai Xianyu didn't believe it if he said it was just a coincidence or that he did it unintentionally. What made Emperor Wu Xuan care so much was definitely not just an emotional bias, but probably a direct result.

The danger was to his power.

Xie Xingyun slowly closed his eyes, then slowly opened them again, with murderous intent clearly visible deep in his eyes, "I know."

Bai Xianyu saw his gloomy face and didn't want to provoke him any more. She was shocked beyond measure when she thought about it, let alone the person involved. He needed some time to deal with it. If Emperor Wu Xuan was really as she thought, he would treat Princess Jing'an and Zhenbei.

Hou did such a cruel thing.

Then, his peaceful days may have come to an end.

Bai Xianyu also breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, she was still thinking, if one day they really faced off against Emperor Wu Xuan, which side would Xie Xingyun choose to stand on, or would he be neutral?

His power was too great for her to ignore.

But if Emperor Wu Xuan wanted to die on his own, then he would be asking for more blessings.

Xie Xingyun did not let her stay in his courtyard as before, but asked Mo Yu to take her to another uninhabited courtyard. Although he said it was uninhabited, in fact it was carefully cleaned and nothing was left behind.

What dust.

After washing up, Bai Xianyu didn't turn off the lights. She was alone in the huge room, and she was still in the imperial mausoleum, so she was still a little scared.

At the same time, on the other side of the wall next to Bai Xianyu's bed, the man blew out the fire stick in his hand.

In the darkness, Xie Xingyun was lying on his side with his hands on his hands, his sword-shaped eyebrows flying into his temples. His handsome face had an almost evil beauty under the flickering moonlight. He raised his palms and gently pressed them against the wall.

From time to time, the sound of a girl turning over came to his head. He had good hearing and could hear it clearly, but it was a sleepless night. Listening to her movements made him feel much more at peace.

She could have continued to hide it from him and no longer have anything to do with him. He narrowed his eyes slightly, but she took the initiative to reveal the flaw.

Don't you think you still care about him a little bit?

Bai Xianyu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she simply sat up and leaned against the wall, holding her forehead and thinking about something. She came to Kyoto for two reasons. One was to find out the truth about that year and see if she could find out the secret that Emperor Wu Xuan wanted to hide.

If there is evidence that he is unkind, suspicious, and plotting to murder loyal ministers, and then they fall out, they will not be passive in public opinion. There is a very small possibility that they can use this to contain Emperor Wu Xuan and seek more opportunities.

Preparation time.

The second reason is that someone is looking into her mother's life, and that person is extremely cautious. Even Fengshadu cannot find any additional information. She only knows that he is from Kyoto. Now she doesn't know whether he is an enemy or a friend, or what his intentions are.

She is already investigating the first reason, and the progress is quite smooth, but there is still no movement on the second reason.

"It seems that person's power is much greater than I imagined." Bai Xianyu frowned and put his finger to his lips.

"Who could it be?"
