Chapter 635: The Butler's Words
After hearing Bai Wushuang's plan, Ji Ze was shocked: "What?! Dad, this won't work..."
Bai Wushuang held Ji Ze's hand tightly. He was reluctant to leave his daughter and son, but someone had to take responsibility for this matter.
"Zer, your mother abandoned Dad. Dad has no hope..."
Ji Ze cried and shook his head: "Dad, you still have Ze'er..."
Bai Wushuang smiled bitterly: "Zer, murdering the king and the heir is a serious crime. This matter cannot be easily covered up. If we let them continue to investigate, what if they find out about you..."
"Dad can't let anything happen to you. Things have developed to this point. Someone has to take charge. You are still young, and now you are the concubine of King Beichen. As long as you can give birth to a daughter or a son, your position will be secure. Anyway, Dad is already like this, so let Dad do something for you."
"Dad only hopes that you and Yan'er will be fine after Dad is gone."
"Your sister is in this state now. She can only count on you."
"Zer, you won't let Dad down, right?"
"father……"
Ji Ze shook his head, tears welling up in his eyes: "It's all my fault. If I hadn't run away from the marriage, you wouldn't have..."
"Zer, don't blame yourself. Your father did this willingly."
"father……"
Ji Ze threw himself into Bai Wushuang's arms and cried uncontrollably.
Although he knows what kind of person his father is, as long as he recognizes him, his father will definitely take on everything.
He was afraid that he would be found out, but he couldn't bear to watch his biological father die.
But he doesn't want to die...
He really doesn't want to die...

next day
Beichen Palace, Study
"What did you say?"
"Bai Wushuang pleaded guilty?"
"Yes, master."
"Bai Wushuang personally confirmed that he was the mastermind behind this. He attacked the husband because he was resentful of Wang Jun for causing Ji Ze to run away from home and flee the marriage, and also for causing Ji Yao to be imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment."
As soon as Mo Yan finished speaking, Bai Qi exploded with anger.
"Is he crazy?" "Jize didn't run away from the marriage because of the master's husband. If you want to blame someone, blame his selfish son, okay?"
"Didn't Bai Wushuang refuse to plead guilty before? Why did he plead guilty all of a sudden?"
Di Ran looked thoughtful, his cold eyes narrowed slightly: "After Bai Wushuang entered the Ministry of Justice, has anyone visited him?"
Bai Qi frowned: "…Except for the fact that Bai Wushuang yelled at the beginning that he wanted to see the War King, but the War King ignored him, no one contacted him afterwards."
The butler standing by frowned, seeming to be hesitant to speak, as if he was troubled by something.
"What's the matter, butler? You look like you have something to say."
The butler hesitated and said, "There is something I want to tell you, but I don't know if I should tell you..."
"what's up?"
"Last night when I got up, I seemed to hear some noise in the back garden, so I went to check. I didn't expect to see a man in a black cloak going out the back door."
"That figure looks familiar to me. It looks like Lord Ming Ce."
Because the back garden is very close to the servants' quarters and also close to the original main courtyard, it is normal for Jinfu to see any movement in the back garden when he gets up at night.
Just Ming Cejun?
This matter is actually related to Mingxuan?
Di Ran narrowed his black eyes dangerously, and his aura turned cold.
Bai Qi felt strange: "What is he doing out in the middle of the night?"
"Could it be that he went out to meet someone privately?"
Mo Yan: "That shouldn't be the case. If Mingxuan already has a lover, why would she marry the master?"
Yes, if Princess Mingxuan had someone she loved, why would she go to so much trouble to marry into Beichen Palace?
Is it for fame and fortune?
But the other party is already a county princess, and the empress dowager also loves her very much.
If it was for some ulterior motive, after she married into the palace, everything she did was to win favor, and she did not do anything improper.
Since he wasn't after fame and fortune, nor did he have any conspiracy, then why did he sneak out in the middle of the night? And who was he going to meet?
Di Ran’s face was gloomy and his eyes were cold.
"check!"
