"Back then, Teacher treated him so well and loved him so much. As long as he gave in and admitted his mistake, I wouldn't have anything to do with it. But look, what did he do? If he's not an idiot, then who is? "
Xun Ziyang's ridicule towards Feng Chen made Bai Lu unable to endure it any longer.
"You shut up! You are the one who has the least right to criticize him! "
But Xun Ziyang seemed to have found joy in it, and also seemed to be purposely provoking Bai Lu, so he ruthlessly trampled on his wounds.
"Yes, I'm not qualified. But I only stabbed myself once. You were the one who broke his legs! "
Bai Lu clutched his head in agony, while Xun Ziyang, who was in the prison cell, revealed a satisfied smile.
"Let me ask you, why did you frame him back then? Teacher is about to recognize you. Why? Why won't you let him go? "
Seeing the regret and anger on Bai Lu's face, Xun Ziyang only wanted to make this fool suffer even more.
"That's because if I don't do this, I won't be able to keep my position."
"Could it be that you're not Sir's biological son?"
"That's right! How could I be the son of that pedantic fellow? I'm only doing this because I can gain some benefits and convenience. Who asked that guy to take it seriously? "
When he said these words, Xun Ziyang had a vengeful heart.
Bai Lu was so angry that his eyes turned red. He clenched his fists tightly, but he didn't land them on Xun Ziyang's head. Instead, he turned around and left the prison cell.
Xun Ziyang's arrogant laughter came from behind him.
But when Bai Lu reached the entrance of the prison, his face gradually regained its calm.
He looked at the two people who were waiting for him at the door.
"How was it? Did you get anything special?"
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and looked at the man in front of her.
Today, she and her second older brother specially went to look for Bai Lu. In the beginning, this person was very stubborn. Later on, she did not know how her second older brother convinced him. In short, this person was willing to believe her and followed her to this place.
According to her suggestion, Bai Lu purposely mentioned that matter today. Sure enough, in order to provoke Bai Lu, Xun Ziyang revealed some of the truth from that year.
However, from the looks of it, Bai Lu did not completely believe him.
"What is your purpose?"
Bai Lu looked at the two of them warily.
Although the two of them had taken the initiative to tell Bai Lu that they were from the Gong Family, Bai Lu still couldn't easily believe them.
Compared to the man who could subdue him in one move, he still felt that the lady in front of him was more dangerous.
"Actually, it's nothing much. I believe you've heard about what happened to the Bai family recently, right?"
Bai Lu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded his head.
Although he didn't believe that the gentle and weak young lady could actually do such a thing.
But from the reaction of the Bai family, it was obvious that it was the truth.
Lin Mengya observed his reaction and said, "That's the truth. Bai Jiarou wants my husband to marry her because she is favored by many. But in the end, he reaped what he sowed and lost his future in vain. "
Seeing her admit it openly, Bai Lu didn't know what to say.
Even though he was a crude person, he knew that this was wrong.
But he didn't know what the main house was thinking. How could they let Bai Jiarou do whatever she wanted?
Seeing the disapproval on his face, Lin Mengya's impression of him gradually improved.
Although he was a bit foolish, he wasn't completely useless.
"But now, if the Bai family and the Gong family still want to reconcile, there's something we need to do. And the crux of this matter lies with Sir Xun Yang. "
"What, what does this have to do with me?"
"It has a lot to do with it."
Seeing that he was listening attentively, Lin Mengya began to trap him.
"You know that after Sir Xun Yang woke up, he didn't say a single word about what happened back then, right?"
Bai Lu nodded. After Sir woke up, he had secretly gone to see him a few times.
But compared to before, Sir seemed somewhat dispirited and haggard.
"In my opinion, this is because it's hard to untie the knot in Sir's heart. Think about it, when a father finds out that his own son might have plotted to murder him, would he not be the least bit heartbroken? "
"Murder? What does that mean? "
"You don't know?"
Lin Mengya pretended to be surprised. Bai Lu shook his head, and Lin Mengya told him about how Xun Ziyang might have poisoned Sir.
"How, how is that possible? Sir treated him so well, how could he do such a thing? "
If she had told him this from the start, Bai Lu might not have believed her.
But now, after thoroughly suspecting Xun Ziyang, he had no choice but to believe her.
"How is it impossible? He could even falsely claim his identity. Perhaps he was worried that Sir Xun Yang would discover his secret, so he wanted to silence him beforehand."
Bai Lu fell silent.
In truth, he was not stupid. He just found it hard to accept.
Seeing his state, Lin Mengya added fuel to the fire.
"So perhaps Sir Xun Yang doesn't speak now because he wants to protect him. I heard from Third Master that Sir's health is not as good as it was before. Could it be that you have the heart to see Sir be kept in the dark until his death? "
She knew that Bai Lu would eventually compromise.
Not only to atone for his crimes, but also to repay Sir Xun Yang's kindness.
"I, what should I do?"
Bai Lu was in a mess. He really did feel that he should do something, but he didn't know where to start.
"It's very simple. Go help Feng Chen. You know where he is, right? "
Although this person had been instigated by Bai Shi 'an, in order to maintain his impartial position, he really couldn't care too much.
And from the looks of it, public opinion was still biased towards Xun Ziyang. After all, there weren't many people who knew the truth.
Thus, she had to push Bai Lu to Feng Chen's side.
Only this way could she completely tear apart all of Xun Ziyang's pretense.
Without the protection of Sir Xun Yang and the Bai clan, Xun Ziyang would be like a tortoise without its shell.
When the time came, wouldn't she be able to do whatever she wanted?
After being pointed out by her, Bai Lu suddenly felt as if the clouds had been dispelled and he had seen the sun.
Yes, he had made a mistake back then, but didn't he have a chance to correct his mistake now?
Since it was like this, he had to grasp it well.
"I understand. Thank you for telling me this news. But no matter what your goal is, you are not allowed to harm the Bai clan! "
He really was an 'ungrateful' fellow, but Lin Mengya didn't care.
Everyone had their own principles. Even if Bai Lu had made a mistake, it didn't mean that he would lose his bottom line.
This kind of person was very good.
"You don't have to worry about this. We came here to cooperate with the Bai clan. Moreover, our Gong clan has money, manpower, and land. We have no interest in the Bai clan. "
She put on a disdainful attitude, which made Bai Lu trust her a little more.
Moreover, what she said was the truth. The Bai clan might have a large business, but if they were to really fight, they might not be a match for the Gong clan.
She was now a woman whose wealth could rival that of a country. Her family not only had mines, but also mountains of gold and silver.
Bai clan? Haha!
"I'll go find Feng Chen. I'll send you out first."
Lin Mengya didn't want to stay here any longer, so she followed Bai Lu out.
On the other hand, her second brother, who always looked straight ahead on the streets, couldn't help but look left and right.
She also glanced a few times. Aside from a few things used for training, there wasn't anything special.
When Bai Lu wasn't paying attention, she sneakily elbowed her second brother a few times and whispered.
"Second brother, what are you looking at?"
Her second brother lowered his voice, faintly agitated.
"You don't know, but there are many good things in here. It seems that there must be a really powerful person in this guard camp. "
Good things?
Lin Mengya was skeptical and looked a few more times.
She didn't know much about such things.
However, she was quite good at gathering information.
She immediately took a few steps forward, walking side by side with Bai Lu.
"Captain Bai is really familiar with this guard camp."
Apart from official business, Bai Lu's attitude towards her was quite gentle.
He nodded, showing a nostalgic expression on his face.
"Yes, I grew up here. If not for the commander, I'm afraid I would have starved to death. "
"Commander?"
"He's the commander in charge of training and commanding the entire guard camp. He's a very powerful person. I heard that he used to be a general. But I don't know why, but he ended up here. But he's a good person. He was the one who established the guard camp. "
Hearing this, her interest was aroused.
Fundamentally speaking, she was born in a family of generals.
Her father and elder brother were famous generals, and her husband was considered a genius in military command.
She was also interested in military tactics, but it was a pity that war in ancient times was about the art of war.
Cold weapons and the cooperation of men were the mainstream here.
She had been immersed in guns and atomic bombs since she was young, so she always felt that she couldn't keep up with the pace.
"I wonder, where can I meet this commander?"
Bai Lu looked at her suspiciously. She immediately smiled and explained, "My father was once a commander, so whenever I see someone like him, I feel a sense of familiarity."
Bai Lu fixed his eyes on her. After confirming that she was not lying, Bai Lu had a good impression of this girl who called herself Su Mei.
"The commander usually stays in the camp, but I don't know why, but he has been patrolling with his brothers every day. My martial arts skills are weak, so I can't help much. Speaking of which, I've let down his teachings. "
A ray of light flashed across her eyes.
As a general, he would always have extraordinary acuity.
It was an instinct honed from many years on the battlefield. It was similar to a small animal's perception of danger. It could almost be attributed to instinct.
"So, we won't be able to meet today. But can we visit the commander in the future? "
Bai Lu felt that this request was a little awkward, but he didn't think too much about it.
After all, there were many people who visited the commander in the past year.
After agreeing on a time, Lin Mengya left with her second brother.
Bai Lu looked at their backs and walked towards his direction with determination.
