"Grandpa, since I'm going to attend the birthday party, I'll go back and make preparations."
"Okay, go ahead!"
After Bai Yunxi left, she did not go back to Pearl Pavilion, but left Bai Mansion.
When she appeared again, she had arrived at the ruined temple last night.
"Hey! You two."
Looking at the two people still here, Bai Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief. If they left, she really didn't know where to find them!
The two of them were packing their bedrolls. After what they had just experienced, they definitely could no longer stay in the imperial city.
However, who knew that just as he was about to leave, he ran into Bai Yunxi.
"Miss Third, please spare us!"
"Miss Third, please spare my life!"
The words of the two made several beggars around them stand up. They didn't understand what happened. However, since the other party was the third young lady of the Bai family, they still thought it would be better to escape from here.
Soon, the temple was empty, with only the three of them left.
"You want to live?"
As soon as Bai Yunxi finished speaking, the two of them nodded immediately.
"Yeah, yeah. As long as the third lady doesn't kill us, we will get away immediately so that we won't taint the third lady's eyes."
One of them quickly raised his hand and said!
"It's easy to survive. As long as you do what I say, I guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you during this period."
When the two of them thought of Bai Mengyan's cannibalistic gaze this morning and the lifeblood they almost lost, they quickly agreed.
"Third Miss, we will do whatever you say, as long as you promise to let us live."
"In that case, then you two come with me!"
Bai Yunxi took the people away to the secret base she found with Gongsun Yu when she was a child. This is an inconspicuous place on the west side of the capital from the mountain peak. Because it is overgrown with weeds all year round, few people come.
here.
Bai Yunxi and Gongsun Yu also accidentally discovered this place that year and set it up as their secret base.
The concealment here means that even if Bai Mengyan wanted to find them, she might not be able to find them.
"You two are staying here temporarily, and I will have people deliver food to you regularly. As for what you are going to do, I will tell you when the time comes. However, I advise you not to try to escape. Otherwise, I will let you
How about trying what it feels like to betray me."
"When things are done, I will give you two a generous sum of money, enough for you two to live for the rest of your lives."
At the beginning, the two people wanted to escape. But when they heard that there was a sum of money that could survive for the rest of their lives, the two people immediately settled down willingly.
After taking care of the two of them, Bai Yunxi left here.
There were still two and a half days before her birthday, so Bai Yunxi still needed to make some preparations. She first went to a tailor shop and bought a set of ready-made clothes, and then returned to Bai Mansion.
Three days later.
The Lingtong Kingdom was very lively. Several small neighboring countries came to congratulate Emperor Leng on his birthday. The streets and alleys were filled with crowds.
They stood on both sides of the street one after another, just to watch the envoys from other countries.
"Miss, you are so beautiful today."
Chunhua had just finished dressing up Bai Yunxi. Looking at the beautiful woman in the bronze mirror, she couldn't help but marvel!
"You bastard, didn't you say the time is coming? Don't keep grandpa waiting too long."
"yes!"
The two of them walked out of the Pearl Pavilion one after another and arrived at the gate of Bai Mansion.
At this time, there were several people standing at the gate, including Bai Xiaocheng and a group of elders. What surprised Bai Yunxi the most was that there was Bai Mengyan inside.
Why is she here?
In the past, Bai Mengyan would naturally attend such an occasion.
However, her status is now very embarrassing. Logically speaking, it is impossible for her grandfather to agree to her going.
"grandfather!"
Bai Yunxi walked up to Bai Xiaocheng, glanced at Bai Mengyan casually, and greeted him.
"Xi'er, Mengyan...hey...wait a minute, you can ride in a carriage with her!"
"Well, don't worry, grandpa, I will take good care of her."
Bai Yunxi emphasized the word "care". How could Bai Xiaocheng not hear it? However, he didn't care about this 'granddaughter' now, so he didn't say anything.
Soon, everyone heading to the palace arrived. Everyone got on the carriage that had been prepared and left the White Mansion.
In the carriage, Bai Mengyan looked at Bai Yunxi from time to time. Her eyes were calm and calm. No one could imagine what kind of turmoil was inside.
It seems that this guy is smarter and knows how to hide his emotions.
"Bai Mengyan, if you look at me again, you will make me mistakenly think that you like me!"
Bai Yunxi sat in the corner, sipping tea, and said casually!
"Third sister, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I did a lot of wrong things in the past, but that's in the past, right? Why don't we make peace?"
"Bai Mengyan, are you stupid, or do you think I am stupid? Who will believe this if you say it?"
Bai Yunxi rolled her eyes, she had hurt her so many times, and now it was a joke to reconcile.
"I am sincere, Yun Xi. I have repented since I found out that I am not my grandfather's granddaughter. Just give me a chance, okay?"
"If you want to ride in the car, keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, I won't mind kicking you down."
"However, I'm really curious about what you said to make grandpa agree that you should come to this birthday banquet."
In the past few days, Bai Yunxi has been practicing and has no idea what Bai Mengyan has done. She can make her grandfather take her into the palace even though he knows that she is not a good thing.
Bai Yunxi's words made Bai Mengyan's hands couldn't help but tighten her clothes. Thinking about how she begged Bai Xiaocheng that day, she felt unlucky.
"Hmph! Just wait, when I get Leng Qiuchen again, that's the day your Bai family will be destroyed."
Bai Mengyan was thinking in her heart, but her face showed no emotion at all.
"Yun Xi, I know you still hate me. However, I will use time to prove that I have really changed my past."
After Bai Mengyan finished speaking, she stopped talking. The two of them seemed to regard each other as nothing, each doing their own thing.
And along the way, time passed very slowly.
The reason is very simple. The entire main street of the Imperial Capital is now crowded with people. There are even dozens of carriages blocking the front.
Bai Yunxi felt a little bored and couldn't help but yawn. But when she saw Bai Mengyan in front of her, she put her sleepiness back.
"Sister, if you're sleepy, just take a nap. I'll call you when you get there."
"No need, I'll be there in a moment."
Bai Yunxi would never think that this person was so kind. One of her current life-saving guidelines is to stay away from Bai Mengyan.
As soon as the words fell, the carriage became quiet again. This silence lasted for an hour and did not end until they arrived at the entrance of the palace.
