145 Wind rises

Sihua was finally sent away and returned to the son's mansion with Ye Lin. Although Bai Xijing was unwilling, he had no choice. However, no one noticed the cold smile at the corner of Bai Xijing's lips at the moment when Siqin followed Ye Lin out of the room.

"Princess, with all due respect, it is not harmful for the princess to send Siqin away." Not long after Ye Lin and the others left, Du Kang appeared in the room and looked at Bai Xijing, who had been staring at the door in a daze.

Bai Xijing smiled faintly and said, "Maybe, Du Kang, is there any progress in the investigation of Sihua?"

Du Kang shook his head and said, "This mansion is too limited, and a lot of information can't be inquired at all, but the only certainty is that the murderer of Sihua is definitely still in this mansion. What's the princess's plan?"

The smile on the corners of Bai Xijing's lips is getting deeper and deeper, but the bottom of his eyes is dark: "How about you let the whole mansion come to the funeral?"

Du Kang was stunned when he heard the words. Bai Xijing's expression made him unable to guess whether she was sincere or fake, so he didn't know how to answer.

"Why do you show such an expression? Do you think I won't do this?" Bai Xijing looked up at Du Kang and couldn't see what the emotion was in his eyes.

"Why did the princess do so for the sake of painting? I'm afraid it's not so important in the princess's heart, right?" Du Kang always felt that Bai Xijing had a sense of making a fuss.

"Oh, is it?" The smile on Bai Xijing's face slowly became lighter, and then she turned around and went to the table and sat down. Therefore, Du Kang only saw her beautiful profile, as if there was a trace of solemnity in the corners of his eyes and said, "It's true that painting is meaningless to me at all, but... I promised someone."

Du Kang sighed and couldn't guess the reason, but for the first time he couldn't figure out Bai Xijing's real motivation.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I just feel that the princess has slowly changed."

"Oh, is it getting better or worse?" Bai Xijing said half sincerely and half hypocritically, with a pair of eyes slightly raised, and actually threw a wink eye, which seemed to be very interesting.

But Du Kang sighed helplessly and said, "Princess, I'm sure you've been bored recently." After saying that, Du Kang shook his head again, but did not answer Bai Xijing's question just now.

Has it become better or worse? There is no simple way to distinguish between good and bad in the world, but... there is only one thing he is sure, that is... it has become far away, and it is close at hand, but it gradually can't capture her idea, and even if she stretches out her hand, she can't touch it.

Time hurried away, and Ye Guo, who had been quiet before the storm, finally hung up a storm. Ye Qing, who was originally stationed on the border, suddenly returned to the capital. Now the army gathered outside the gate and asked to enter the palace to serve King Ye in the name of filial piety.

It sounds good, but with the battle of the army, it doesn't seem to be filial, it's just to force the palace! A timid people were so scared that they all hid in the house and dared not come out, and the whole capital was much quieter in an instant.

However, Ye Lin detained Ye Qing's army and only announced that Ye Qing would enter the palace alone, which can be said to separate Ye Qing and his support. Ye Qing originally didn't want to, but now Ye Lin handles all government affairs on behalf of King Ye, and he can't refuse at all. If he refuses, he will definitely let Ye Lin find the handle to deal with him.

In desperation, Ye Qing had to go into the palace alone. However, although it seems that Ye Lin took the lead, it is not true. After all, Ye Qing's army also surrounded the capital layer by layer, and Ye Lin is in the Ming Dynasty and Ye Qing is in the dark. No one knows what trump card Ye Qing is holding in his hand.

After all, if there is no trump card to come to the capital to seize power, he is a fool! Ye Qing definitely has an unexpected trump card.
