Although she was extremely sleepy, Wen Baizhi woke up the moment she heard Qi He calling her outside.

Cuizhi woke up as well.

"I'll be right there." Wen Baizhi said to the door.

She packed up quickly and went out with Cuizhi in a short while.

When I went out, I found that it was just dawn.

It was really early when we came back.

Literally early.

Qi He stood at the door with his hands clasped, and when he saw them come out he went to greet them.

"I told him this when he came in, but I didn't tell him your true identity. I only said that you were a person from Kyoto who had received favors from General Wen's family. Now I want to know what General Wen was like before his death. I used myself as a guarantee. He was straightforward and believed it immediately, so you can ask him directly later."

Wen Baizhi didn't think about such details. She was only concerned with asking about what happened at that time, and forgot what identity she should give herself.

Qi He's consideration was quite thoughtful.

Wen Baizhi thanked him: "Thank you so much, I didn't think carefully enough, I just thought there was someone I could ask, but I didn't think of how to start or why to ask him."

Qi He led her out and said, "Miss, you are being polite. Miss's business is my business, so I will naturally consider everything for you first."

Wen Baizhi knew that if she had not pointed out to Qi He at that time that she was Wen Bai, Qi He would not be as loyal to her as he is now.

It turns out that this is a society where people rely on their appearance everywhere.

They soon met Wang Wei, who was the first person Qi He mentioned to rush to Yunzhou to see Wen's father for the last time.

At the same time, Si Jiu also received news from the secret guards.

When Si Jiu saw Wen Baizhi was at the Qihe Escort Agency, he smiled for some reason.

Yes, Wen Baizhi was in this strange place, and the only person she knew besides him was Qi He.

So where else could she go if she left here?

Only Qi He's there.

Besides, Qi He was a man close to Wen's father back then. After General Wen passed away, he still resisted all kinds of pressure and incorporated all the people of the Wen family army together.

There is no doubt that he is very capable.

Wen Baizhi should get closer to people like this.

This will also be beneficial to her later.

But why, Si Jiu still felt a little uncomfortable after seeing this news.

It was as if, when he saw that Wen Baizhi had somewhere else to go and could not only stay with him, he felt uncomfortable.

Although Si Jiu also knew that his idea was wrong.

Wen Baizhi has the right to make friends with anyone.

She can even choose to go anywhere by herself.

But Si Jiu is...

He just feels a little uncomfortable...

He raised his hand and knocked on his chest, trying to ease the uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

When his heart felt a little relieved and he could breathe more smoothly, he asked Ping'an to harness the carriage to go to the escort agency.

No matter where Wen Baizhi is, he will be the one to take her home.

Now he was going to take her home.

On the carriage to the escort agency, Si Jiu's cold and thin hands tightly grasped the note with the message on it.

Inside the escort agency, Wen Baizhi was sitting with Wang Wei and Qi He, waiting for Wang Wei to tell her about the past.

Wang Wei and Qi He are brothers who have been fighting for a long time, so Wang Wei naturally trusts Qi He very much.

So when Qi He told him that Wen Baizhi was someone who wanted to know about General Wen's past, he believed it.

Perhaps it was because too much time had passed, and Wang Wei also wanted to take this opportunity to tell others what he saw last time about General Wen.

After all, just like wet clothes, those memories of the past will be dried in the long river of memory if they are not taken out and dried frequently.

With this, Wen Baizhi finally knew what happened to her father and brother in the final moments.

Just as she thought, her father and brother did die from miasma.

But there are many doubts.

Because Wang Wei saw their bodies for the last time.

He risked everything at that time and rushed to the cemetery to check where their bodies were placed.

Maybe the people in charge didn't expect that there would be people from the Wen family army who could make it here.

Or maybe the Wen father and son finally died, so they relaxed their vigilance and no longer kept a strict watch on him as before.

In short, it gave Wang Wei the last chance to see them.

"I've been to Yunzhou before. If they really died of miasma, their faces would appear blue and purple. Although I'm not familiar with coroners, it looks like that. It's just a little strange that their fingernails are still the same and have not turned blue and purple. Logically, if they died of miasma, their fingers should also change color. It's just that General Wen and his men are in good health, so their fingers didn't change color."

No one would believe such a reason.

But at that time, what difference did it make whether you believed it or not?

After all, it has become an established fact and cannot be changed no matter what.

"After that, I left in a hurry, fearing that they would find me. When I was ready to come back, I found that the charity cemetery had been burned down by a huge fire, and the bodies of General Wen and his men were also burned. I remember that at that time, General Wen's only remaining daughter rushed to Yunzhou and took away their last remaining ashes."

Wen Baizhi knew that what happened after that was something she also knew.

The scene at that time was so heartbreaking that she didn't want to recall it again.

She only remembered that the two people who had promised to come back to Kyoto and watch her live her new life happily were gone, vanished.

Even though she just traveled through time, she was reluctant to leave.

Wen Baizhi's expression showed a rare emotion.

After all, she is also an ordinary person, and a little princess who was once held in the palm of the hands of the entire Wen family.

She had enjoyed all the love, but then lost it all.

Even her friends, her previous identity, and everything else that happened before, have nothing to do with the current Wen Baizhi.

Even if she wanted to know what happened to her father and brother in the end, she couldn't tell others that she was Wen Bai.

Obviously she is Wen Bai, she still exists, and there are still people in the Wen family, and it has not been completely destroyed.

But there is no difference between her existence and disappearance.

Thinking of this, Wen Baizhi couldn't help but feel sad.

Maybe it was also because I thought of Si Jiu.

Thinking about it, they are still having conflicts and no one has given in yet.

Such intertwined emotions intertwined together, and finally made her cry.

She is not a fragile person, let alone someone who would cry in front of outsiders.

But people are ordinary and have their own emotions.

Wen Baizhi naturally has it too.
