On the way back, Bai Yixuan had been pondering about what Zhao Ziyun had said this entire time. Actually, what Zhao Ziyun said was very reasonable, and furthermore, Bai Yixuan was more inclined to Zhao Ziyun's second theory.
She had always felt that Li Dahe seemed to be hiding something more deeply, and that the way the two of them talked was completely inconsistent, Bai Yixuan felt that this Li Dahe must have been hiding something, she had pushed all of this onto Qiu Yongnian, using her heart and effort, and was extremely sinister. On the other hand, although Qiu Yongnian was a bad guy through and through, Bai Yixuan could feel that his evilness was only on the surface, not hidden like Li Dahe.
Although there was still one more child that she had not found, Bai Yixuan did not have any other methods right now. Instead, she felt a little exhausted and did not know how many times such a tragedy would occur.
Returning to the Bai Family, Bai Yixuan immediately saw Shen Run. Shen Run was obviously worried about Bai Yixuan and Bai Yihui, but he was unable to help the two of them, so Bai Yixuan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law, why did you come out? You should quickly go back and rest;
"All of you are completely bereft of food, how can I be at ease?"
"Sister-in-law, you have to trust big brother. Big brother's ability is very strong.
"I know Xuan Er, it was you who had been helping your big brother all this while. I thank you on behalf of your big brother."
"What did sister-in-law say? Big brother and I are relatives to begin with. If there's anything big brother doesn't want me to help with, then let's go back first. This case will be over soon. Big brother can accompany you properly after a while."
Pulling Shen Run into the room, Bai Yixuan asked, "Oh right, sister-in-law, have you been drinking all the medicine I gave you?"
"Of course, Xuan Er's medicine has helped me a lot, and my body is no longer in a critical condition, so Xuan Er, you can help your big brother without worry."
"I know, sister-in-law, you really love big brother too much. I'm so jealous."
After talking to Shen Run for a while, Bai Yixuan went back to the house on the mountain. There was no change on the mountain, the person she had been waiting for did not come back either.
Zhao Ziyun probably had some ability, and was able to analyze the situation in time, which helped Bai Yixuan make up her mind. That would mean that the real problem was Li Dahe, and not Qiu Yongnian, who might have done a lot of bad things back then, but he would definitely not be the last one to act, so what was left in the end that he did not know.
Bai Yixuan played with the bracelet on her wrist. This bracelet was the same one Mu Yefan gave him before, and he had kept it with him all this time, although he no longer had the jade pendant, but Bai Yixuan did not feel anything, even without the spring water, Bai Yixuan could still solve some problems successfully.
He had long since memorized the medical skills within his heart.
Actually, even Bai Yixuan couldn't figure out what happened back then that made him completely give up on everything. If this were in the modern world, Bai Yixuan felt that it wouldn't be possible for him to easily give herself to a man before marriage.
But at that time, when she saw the expression in Mu Yefan's eyes, other than the feeling of not caring about anything else, Bai Yixuan didn't have any other feeling in her heart.
Although she had planned to escape for such a long time, Bai Yixuan still wasn't willing to part with him. It was as if when she wasn't by Mu Yefan's side, Mu Yefan wouldn't be able to live a good life. Even though she clearly knew that was the emperor and her days were good, every time she saw, he would always make herself look so miserable, causing Bai Yixuan to not know what to say about him.
What Bai Yixuan did not expect was that on the second day, she saw Zhao Ziyun once again. This time, Zhao Ziyun was directly waiting for Bai Yixuan at the entrance of the official residence, causing the surrounding yamen s to look at him, but actually, these people probably knew that Bai Yixuan liked someone, because when Bai Yixuan turned the case over for Mu Yefan, most of them saw him. However, they also knew that the person that Bai Yixuan liked, had not come back for a long time.
"Zhao Ziyun, what are you doing here?"
"I thought you'd need me."
Bai Yixuan did not think too much into it. Zhao Ziyun was indeed very smart, and his appearance made Bai Yixuan feel that he was very familiar with him, so Bai Yixuan did not say anything, "Then you come along, but you are now a little scholar, you can just say that you are my friend later on. How do you know that I am really a member of the authorities?"
"Master Bai, your surname is also Bai, so it's very obvious that everyone knows that the county magistrate has a younger sister who can help solve the case. She's very smart, and she's also a big businessman. It's definitely you."
"Kid, your thinking isn't bad. Come, follow me. This case should be solved soon. My big brother should rest early."
"I'll help you."
"You still look a lot like my friend."
"What's the name of your friend?"
"Zhao Yunfan, you are destined to be here." Bai Yixuan said, "However, I have not seen him for a long time, I do not know how he is now, maybe she is already married."
Zhao Ziyun seemed to have made his decision. Although Bai Yixuan's eyes were filled with indifference, in Zhao Ziyun's eyes, it was as if there was something else. He felt that Bai Yixuan was just running away.
"Is he the one you like?"
Bai Yixuan obviously did not understand. After being stunned for a moment, she laughed, "He's not like that, he's just a friend of mine that was rather familiar with him since she was young. She can be considered my brother."
Zhao Ziyun was obviously unable to understand, "Can it be that men and women can also become brothers?"
"Why not?" Bai Yixuan laughed, "Just like you and I can be brothers, don't tell me you are not willing?"
"I …" Zhao Ziyun wanted to say something, but Big Brother Bai suddenly walked out, seeing the person beside Bai Yixuan who was hesitating, "Xuan Er, who is this?"
"Big Brother, this is a friend of mine, Zhao Ziyun. It's all thanks to him, I'm now going to confirm that the real culprit is definitely Li Dahe, not Qiu Yongnian. Qiu Yongnian has definitely explained everything that happened at that time clearly, if it's really like this, then it's definitely Li Dahe hiding something from us."
"But Li Dahe's child has not appeared yet."
This is the problem, if it was just to take revenge, then why didn't he burn his daughter too? This is not logical, and since this assassin has been hiding for so many years, he must have been preparing for this day. If a person really wants to do something, then he must have done a lot of things behind his back.
"Are you saying that this murderer has a trump card, precisely because of what Li Dahe was hiding?"
Bai Yixuan nodded. Right now, she was in prison, crying and asking for his daughter or something like that, only to capture the culprit.
In the end, Bai Yixuan and Bai Yihui still personally went to see Li Dahe. When Li Dahe saw Bai Yixuan and Bai Yihui, he asked, "Have you found my daughter?"
"Li Dahe, I have some questions to ask you right now, and they are very serious. If you don't speak properly, it will definitely affect your daughter's life. I hope you can tell me the truth."
"You people only know how to investigate the old cases, but you can't find the case of my daughter's disappearance. What do you need a county magistrate to do? You even let a woman make the decision all day."
Bai Yixuan did not say anything, and Bai Yixuan did not mind at all. Zhao Ziyun stood behind Bai Yixuan, and carefully observed the man in front of him.
Zhao Ziyun whispered into Bai Yixuan's ear, "This person is lying. I can tell that he's hiding something, and when I mentioned about his little girl earlier, I saw that his eyes were staring at the ground. This isn't a threat at all, it's her guilty conscience."
Bai Yixuan naturally knew that this man was lying, but if Li Dahe did not say anything, then neither he nor his brother would be able to do anything. Bai Yixuan asked, "Do you have a way to make him speak?"
"There is a way. Brother Xuan, why don't you leave this matter to me?"
Bai Yixuan nodded and pulled Bai Yihui back a step, "We will watch over you from here."
Zhao Ziyun did not mind, he just nodded and continued, "Do you really care about your daughter?"
"Of course, how could I not care about my only daughter?"
"But I can't see any care in you at all. Your daughter is probably even more miserable than those two children."
"Nonsense."
"What nonsense am I saying?" Zhao Ziyun laughed. In his heart, Bai Yixuan was still thinking that Zhao Ziyun's IQ was much higher than his, and he was indeed not mistaken about this.
"You yourself know if I'm lying or not, there are a lot of things that you already know. You are only deceiving yourself, and your daughter won't live any longer as well, because you have done even more excessive things to Wang Xin back then.
"Nonsense."
"Alright, now you can only say that I'm spouting nonsense. Exactly what did you do that year, Qiu Yongnian doesn't know about it, but it could push you into the abyss. Why do you have a son in your family, and why does Wang Xin want to pick your daughter?"
In fact, Bai Yixuan was still curious, why did Zhao Ziyun know about this so clearly? Bai Yixuan had never told Zhao Ziyun in such detail, there was only one possibility, and that was that Zhao Ziyun had specially investigated this matter.
Bai Yixuan didn't even know how she should reject him. She also thought about how, in her previous life, Zhao Yunfan would often give her a little surprise from time to time. Although it was a pleasant surprise, Bai Yixuan had never been able to truly think of loving Zhao Yunfan.
"My daughter is young, so this Wang Xin is crazy."
"Wang Xin is deranged, then what are you?"
"What do you mean?"
"I know what you did that year, because there was still another person who knew about it, right? And that person was Zhang Wanyi."
