”Father, I heard that Big Brother is back?” Suddenly, a soft voice sounded. It sounded as if it was filled with pity.
”What is it?” Bai Li Jin was not bad to the usually quiet Bai Li Mo Li, so he opened his mouth to ask, his expression also becoming a lot more gentle.
However, when Bai Li Jin Xiu saw Bai Li Mo Li standing at the doorway, he frowned.
Not to mention when Bai Li Mo Li had received the news, he had even walked from the courtyard of the Aunt An to his mother's courtyard.
With such a long distance between them, why wasn't Bai Li Mo Li gasping for breath at all?
Did it look like he had walked so far? Or could it be that Bai Li Mo Li was standing at the door?
”Look, even though the sisters are fighting, they always have a good relationship with each other. Fu Rong was still the big sister.
I told you to go into Han Lin, but you refused. Could it be that this old man can't even control the embroidery anymore? ”
When Prime Minister was rendered speechless by Bai Li Jin, he immediately found a reason when he saw the deep affection between brother and sister on Bai Li Mo Li's face.
Being suppressed by such heavy words from the Prime Minister, if Bai Li Jin said anything more, it would be unfilial.
”Father, you don't have to worry. With elder sister's previous ability, if Sixth Prince likes her, then Imperial Concubine should not be a problem either.
Since that's the case, since father has come to find me now, I am not yet Princess Anne, nor can I be the lord of King An. So, if father wants to ask me about taking care of a child, I might as well ask King An. ”
Bai Li Jin Xiu blinked, and opened his mouth, causing the Prime Minister to be speechless.
Regardless if Bai Li Mo Li did it on purpose or not, she wouldn't let his big brother carry the reputation of being unfilial.
Prime Minister glared at him, ”The matter of a child, is naturally the best if it is related by blood. Father, are you going to fail me for my painstaking efforts? ”
Now he was using filial piety to pressure her? But Bai Li Jin Xiu was disdainful.
Whether King An would do or not, she had already tested it herself. That guy was definitely a fighter jet, how could he be the rumored weakling.
”In that case, what is father worried about?”
Bai Li Jin Xiu said with a cold smile in his heart.
His father only wanted to bet on both sides. Sixth Prince was currently the most famous candidate to be the crown prince, but he was the direct descendant of the empress.
Both sides were children born from their daughters. No matter who became the next emperor, he would be the elder of the country.
Bai Li Jin Xiu touched her neck. That night when Gong Xiao Xuan had mercilessly grabbed onto her neck, she still vividly remembered his actions.
How could that tyrant be at the mercy of others?
Prime Minister thought that Bai Li Jin Xiu had agreed to it, he turned and looked at Bai Li Mo Li with satisfaction, then spoke a few words to Bai Li Jin before turning and leaving.
Bai Li Mo Li also handed the things over to Bai Li Jin, and daintily said: ”I still have things to do with Aunt, so I'll be going back first.”
That bashful look made her look like the most harmless little white flower.
”Sister, you came all the way here. If you're tired, you should rest a bit.” Bai Li Jin Xiu looked at Bai Li Mo Li's face and said.
Bai Li Jin Xiu noticed that when he said those words, Bai Li Mo Li's face stiffened.
Bai Li Jin Xiu looked at Bai Li Mo Li's exposed shoes again. The dust on them had all dried up long ago.
