Chapter 2232 Stormy (please ask for the first monthly ticket in 2024)(1/2)
"On July 9, 3928, the main lineage of the Li clan in Yancheng was slaughtered, and the branches divided their families."
"On August 16, 3928, the head of the Wu family in Hancheng was found dead in the study room, with blood in all seven orifices. He had no descendants and did not follow the side branches, so he died."
"On September 4, 3928, the legitimate son of the Song family disappeared..."
In Bai Mansion, Langya City, in Bai Pingfu's study room in the past.
Bai Yuxia sat at the desk and pasted pieces of paper with different information on the desktop, pasting them and chanting them. Each piece of paper was very consistent, neat and orderly.
All the furnishings in the study were as old as before. After Bai Pingfu died, no one used the study until his only son came back.
Bai Yuxia still remembers how his father hugged him on the table when he was not as tall as his desk. He happily asked him to recite articles, but dipped in ink and drank wine, and wrote wildly, saying, "My son Zuxing."
Later, when he got older, he rarely had such times. His father emphasized rules more and more, and he needed to become a noble son of the Bai family who fully complied with the norms.
He knew that at the last moment, his father was disappointed with him.
Because he put aside the responsibilities given by his family, threw all the rules followed in his past life aside, and wandered around like he was moving forward-
He thought he was just looking for an answer to life, but his father didn't wait until he came back.
Bai Yuxia was facing the pieces of paper one by one, as if she was playing the Scrabble game she played when she was a child.
But those who truly understand Yue Kingdom will know the weight of these words.
Yancheng and Hancheng are both important cities in Yue Kingdom.
The Li family, Wu family, and Song family are all famous prominent families in Yue, and are only under the Ge family and Bai family.
In the eyes of the arrogant Chu people, there is only the Ge clan in the entire Yue Kingdom, and the Bai clan can be regarded as a famous family. However, Li, Wu, and Song are also well-known surnames within the Yue Kingdom.
There were many accidents in these family families, so people naturally felt panic.
Rumors were flying all over the country of Yue, and everyone hated Chu and dared not speak out.
Who killed Gao Zheng?
The owner of the Sanfen Xiang Building, the bright moon of Rakshasa is pure.
Why did the good Rakshasa Mingyuejing kill Gao Zheng?
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is related to the State of Chu.
So now that these powerful and powerful people in Yue have had one after another, what is the source of the disaster?
Besides Chu, which other side can it be?
How evil is the Chu people!
In June, Zhong Liyan, the envoy of Chu State, trespassed the Yinxiangfeng, disturbing Gao Zheng's demise. Gao Zheng's personal disciple, Ge Fei, woke up from the chaos and chased him out in anger.
Ge Fei defeated Zhongli Yan, and Yue Court also imprisoned the deputy envoy of Chu State Dou Mian to hold him accountable - but in the end, due to the great power of Chu State, he could only release these two people.
The Chu people were in the wrong, so they remained silent on the surface. But when they turned around, there were frequent accidents in the country. Everyone in the prime ministers, nobles and nobles were in danger. Who could say that they had nothing to do with the Chu people?
The world's domineering country has used such private means to become a great country in vain!
Of course, Bai Yuxia also knew about this violent objection.
He knows far more than public opinion.
So he was silent in the study.

As the knock on the door sounded, it was the voice of his mother Wen Juanying: "Xia'er, can you come in?"
Bai Yuxia smeared it casually, covered the table with a piece of snow-white rice paper, and chuckled, "Come in - I remember when I was a child, you never want to knock on the door."
Wen Juanying pushed the door and walked in. She smiled and said, "Then am I guarding against your father? Men, they always talk about social engagements and work. The door will be closed for several hours. Who knows what to do when hiding inside? This is called "Surprise Attack Chagang."
Bai Yuxia picked up a pen and drew a branch on the paper, smiling faintly: "My father is famous for his duty, and your suspicion of him is really unreasonable."
"Yeah! What do you know? When he was young-" Wen Juanying stopped and gave him a blank look: "Why should I tell you this?"
Bai Yuxia did not raise her head to paint, but grinned: "If you want to tell me about his confused things when he was young, I, a son, cannot hear it. I will be able to learn from all the virtuous people."
"Put your mouth!" Wen Juanying said angrily: "It should be said 'If you see a bad person, you will think about introspection'!"
Bai Yuxia smiled and said, "One meaning, you'll understand."
Wen Juanying looked at her son, looked at the paintings that were being drawn on the desk - a branch, a crow, and a few storms.
A very lonely painting.
At some point, she had already stopped her smile. Bai Yuxia also pursed her lips.
The mother and son didn't laugh anymore.
"What is pressing under the drawing?" Wen Juanying asked.
Bai Yuxia paused her brush and said softly: "You don't know much about this country's territory."
"Son," Wen Juanying said: "You should go back to Xingyueyuan. A good man is determined by all directions, and he always stays at home and has no future."
"I have no prospects in Xingyueyuan. My boss is very stingy and never raises his salary." Bai Yuxia said: "I'd better spend more time with you. When you are happy, some pockets are leaking from your fingers. Isn't it better than me being a cow or a horse outside?"
Wen Juanying was silent for a while and said, "It's been quite chaotic recently, you said--"
"It has nothing to do with our family." Bai Yuxia said: "There are all family members who have the trouble, and they are all those who have power and monopolize resources. Our family has been in a state of turmoil for a long time, and it doesn't matter if it's said in Langya City, so it's not our turn."
Bai Yuxia has not done much during her stay at home. She just grabbed those people in the clan who were resurrected and kept shutting up the Bai family's revival and beat them up.
After his return, the Bai family was even more deserted than when he was away.
Wen Juanying said: "What kind of family is not a clan, it is all evil created by Chu people. Chu people are used to being arrogant, but they don't care about your actual situation. Do you still choose the life of killing people?"
"Are you really a Chu person?" Bai Yuxia asked.
Wen Juanying's face changed: "Yuxia!"
Bai Yuxia said, "I can't even think of it. Who can use the Chu side to correspond to such a method that is not worthy of the market? Duke An of the Kingdom of Huai? They are going to overthrow the country. Qu Shunhua, Zuo Guangshu, Xiang Bei? Haha, with my understanding of them, no matter how they fall, it is more than this pattern."
"The State of Chu is so huge that it is inevitable that it will be corrupt. What I'm talking about is heroes. You didn't see the bear." Wen Juanying said: "Like Gu China, what dirty things can't be done?"
"Mother." Bai Yuxia sighed in a complicated tone: "You are really a royal family!"
Wen Juanying had a lot of words, but when she heard her son's sigh, she couldn't help but lower her eyelids: "Your mother's surname is Wen, your father and mother are both from Yue. Son, you are also from Yue. Born here and raised here."
Bai Yuxia simply lifted up the painting she had just painted, revealing the dense pieces of paper on the desk, pointing to the text on it, saying, "The Li family in Yancheng said that the branch was divided into their families, and all were divided into gold, silver and miscellaneous items. Where did the authority go? Where did the promotion channel go? They were all nationally owned. The Wu family in Hancheng said that the side branches would not be inherited. Such a large business, wealth and honor, wouldn't the side branches not want to inherit? They would not be inherited. So they were extinct—"
"Enough." Wen Juanying interrupted.
Bai Yuxia refused to stop: "Our emperor is very talented and determined to cut off the sores. Fortunately, my father died early, and if he died late, he would have to be stabbed."
"It's OK..." Wen Juanying's voice almost begged.
Bai Yuxia continued: "Since the emperor has such a determination, he himself cannot avoid bleeding. The royal family of Wen's surname has been growing up for so many years, and soon it will be pruned. Now, Prince Min has been scolded for a mistake, and his fiefdom is destined to be unable to be protected. If he is not sensible enough, his mind will be difficult to protect."
"What do you want to do in Bai Yuxia?" Wen Juanying shouted in a sharp voice, eased, with tears in her eyes: "What do you want to do? Do you know that as long as you say these words are spread, you will become a traitor in an instant? Your father, your grandfather, and the reputation of your Bai family ancestors cannot be kept - what do you want to do?"
Bai Yuxia was very calm: "My grandfather devoted his wholehearted efforts to the country and shed the last drop of blood on the battlefield. My father cherished his feathers throughout his life and abides by moral codes. My ancestors of the Bai family have never felt ashamed of the country. Why can't they keep their reputation? Because I tell the truth?"
Wen Juanying looked at him sadly: "Once the torrent of public opinion is formed, anyone who tries to stand in front will be crushed. What is the meaning of the truth? Where is the evidence important? People don't care about the truth, they just need to vent their emotions - don't you understand this principle than me? It's something that everyone knows for a mother."
Bai Yuxia said: "It is said that the word of public can ruin gold and destroy bones. But I think the one that can be defamed by slander is not real gold. It will be defeated by rumors, not hard bones."
"What does it have to do with us? Mom doesn't understand. Yuxia, they said that it was done by the Chu people, and that's better than the Chu people. The Chu country is strong and domineering, and they can't blame many things for them." Wen Juanying took a step forward: "Don't say these words anymore."
"Don't worry, I'm just telling you now." Bai Yuxia smiled: "Besides, this is what Yue Kingdom needs, right? The emperor wants to make a thorough reform, be united, and grasp public opinion - Mother, I can understand it."
What is Li, Wu, and Song? What is he incomprehensible? It was not close to him, but after all, it was considered a family matter between Wen Jingxiu. The only thing he could not understand happened before, nothing about today.
Wen Juanying wiped her tears, looked at the room nostalgic, and walked to the desk: "Yuxia. Mom has figured it out, let's go to Xingyueyuan together, we are the two of us."
Bai Yuxia said with surprise: "Uncle Zhang and Deng Gu, my uncles and brothers, aunts and sisters, and aunts, and these people? Don't care?"
"Don't worry. They are all adults, and they are responsible for themselves." Wen Juanying said: "Your father has left, and you have no intention of the family business. My mother has worked hard. So I just distributed the family business to them, so I will take some items with me and follow you to another place to support me and stay away from right and wrong."
Of course, Bai Yuxia had known this was the result, because it was him who used the turmoil in Yue's territory to force his mother to make such a choice.
The hometown is hard to leave, the family business is huge, Wen Juanying himself has the surname Wen... If he hadn't deliberately shown some danger, he knew that his mother would never leave.
"You can't just bring some personal belongings." Bai Yuxia smiled and said, "No one can be left behind for Yuanshi or something. You can't count on your son's wages to support your old age."
Since she had decided to leave, Wen Juanying's worries suddenly let go. She raised her hand and hit her son: "The morality of a dissolute family!"
Bai Yuxia smiled and begged for mercy, pushing her mother out: "Go pack your luggage quickly, I will arrange a vehicle to take you to Xingyueyuan."
Bang.
The door of the study room was closed.
The master of the study leaves the room and will leave it forever.
The fallen spring rain, the fallen summer rain, and the fallen autumn rain. In the entire Dao Li 3928, the Yue Kingdom seemed to be in the rain.
The sudden rain knocked on the window, and the feeling of wetness was pouring in. Finally, there was a ray of autumn wind passing through the gap and entering the study room.
The paper sticking on the table seemed to be printed on the table, unmoved.
The rice paper that recorded Bai Yuxia's casual painting almost rose with the wind, but was pressed down by the paperweight and was mostly rolled up, but there was still a corner nailed to the table.
At this time, it stirred up in the autumn wind, and you can see two lines of words on the back of the painting-
To be continued...
