Dean Bai looked at the person sitting in front of him who was neither humble nor arrogant, and once again felt powerless.
Since this time.
His biggest feeling towards the person in front of him is to keep a respectful distance, because the "meanness" of the person in front of him has penetrated deep into his bones, and if he smells a vested interest, he will penetrate all the way.
for example.
It is said that the Bai family has worked hard for many years and should have a broader stage.
If the Bai family is forced to stand against the empire, isn't that making them treason!?
After he made sure the room was not bugged.
Wiping away cold sweat, I asked people to keep their voices down.
Dean Bai raised his head and said, "Why don't you change your request?"
Qu Jian'er sighed when he heard this, and said nonsense seriously: "It's really outrageous that the dean of the school is unwilling to save his old father. You will pay a heavy price for your choice."
Dean Bai felt powerless as never before. If the person in front of him didn't have extraordinary means and a method to treat his father, he would have sent people to come and go.
Want them to fight against the empire.
Do you think it's easy for the Bai family to reach their current position? Are they not hostile to thousands of people?
Qu Jian'er is so capable of messing around.
I'm afraid it's not a blender!
However, the conditions given by Qu Jian'er were too tempting and successfully aroused his ambition.
The Bai family replaced the Sato family as one of the nine major families? Just thinking about it made his scalp numb.
But at the same time.
It's also mixed with enthusiasm.
Qu Jian'er's metaphysical skills just revealed shattered his materialistic beliefs into powder, and he probably would not be able to face the school test paper on the Scientific Outlook on Development normally.
It also let him know that Qu Jian'er was unusual.
But that wasn't enough to sway him.
It wasn't until Qu Jian'er revealed his identity as the deputy director of the Special Bureau that he was completely convinced.
He asked Bai Ru to talk to others, while he got up to discuss with the two elderly people of the Bai family.
Bai Wei wondered: "When did you become the deputy director of the Special Bureau? By the way, what is the Special Bureau?"
Qu Jian'er waved his hand: "When you don't know, it's nothing, just a small unit worth mentioning."
Meng Qingyang/Bai Wei: "..." Huh!? It doesn't sound simple!
Bai Rushi said in a daze: "The examination report said that grandpa will not live for more than a month... Do you really have a way to save my grandpa?"
Qu Jian'er sighed: "Silly boy, your sister will marry Qingyang of our family and become a member of my old Qu family. I will never let her observe filial piety before she gets married."
Bai Wei: "..." Just shut up.
Meng Qingyang: "..." Please tell me more quickly.
Bai Ru was confused: "Your name is Qu Qingyang?"
Meng Qingyang only said: "My surname is Meng."
Bai Ru was completely unable to keep up with Qu Jian'er's brain circuit. Hearing this, he became even more confused.
Bai Wei on the side suddenly said seriously: "What are you planning? You are the only one who dares to think about overthrowing the empire."
Qu Jianer's conversation with Dean Bai just now did not avoid them, so that Bai Wei has digested it to this day.
Meng Qingyang didn't have much ups and downs, because he was not from the Empire in the first place.
In his opinion.
If the empire changes its owner, he is more willing to return to the Meng family, convince his family, and establish diplomatic relations with the empire!
Qu Jian'er didn't have much thoughts.
She just wanted to see if, in the face of absolute temptation, a family under the empire would switch sides and point a gun at the former leader.
Bai Wei persuaded with lingering fear: "The empire is in a bit of chaos, but let's just think about it and forget about it."
She didn't know yet that Qu Jian'er had already planned with Zuo Chen to trip up the empire, otherwise she would not be like now, just like a worried old woman calmly persuading people.
***
District Chief Bai suddenly opened his eyes, which were closed to recuperate: "She is the deputy bureau of the Special Intelligence Bureau?"
After returning to Bai's house.
He sat in the study and rested.
He was surprised when he suddenly felt excitement and panic in his son's tone.
After understanding the "negotiation" process.
He is silent.
Dean Bai nodded: "Yes."
The old lady Bai who was pouring tea hurriedly followed the breath gathering in her chest and put down the teacup tremblingly.
Ordinary people don't know.
But they know.
Special Intelligence Bureau: An agency that is independent of the Empire like the Gray Network.
And Qu Jian'er is young.
You can secure your position as deputy bureau chief.
It means that she is not as simple as she appears.
District Chief Bai pursed his lips and said, "Madam, do you still remember? More than a hundred years ago, when I first entered the cabinet, I was invited to the palace to meet His Majesty for the first time."
Old Mrs. Bai thought for a while: "Remember, you locked yourself in the study for a long time after you came back. At that time, Qinghui was just born, and I complained that you didn't know the Gu family."
After District Chief Bai confirmed that there were no outsiders, he revealed the secret that had been hidden in his heart for many years.
Among the group of people who entered the palace back then.
Without exception, they were all poisoned in order to prevent powerful people like them from betraying the royal family.
And thirty years ago.
The year Zuo Chen was born.
His Majesty went on a killing spree.
All those who are at odds with the royal family.
They all died in that bloody night.
And he almost died on the spot.
If he hadn't stood firmly behind the royal family, he would have been among the people purged.
In recent years.
He has been taking advantage of illness to shirk his duties.
Even the poisonous insects were taken out.
He wants to slowly withdraw from the stage of history.
Enjoy your retirement.
However, the collapse of his mental power and the infestation of the poisonous insects had already exceeded the load of his body.
Even if there are no test results.
He also knew that he would not live long.
Before death.
Often regret.
He is also included.
Dean Bai did not expect that his father had to bear so much alone, and he began to reflect on why he wanted to be loyal to the royal family.
Are ordinary people’s lives so worthless?
I was bewitched casually.
Live in anxiety all day long.
Will he be like his father in the future?
Is such an empire really worthy of allegiance?
District Chief Bai never liked to think too much after looking away, and just said: "Do you think this big gamble has a chance of winning?"
Mrs. Bai has never seen such a battle before.
She couldn't explain why.
But Dean Bai has been in power for a long time, and he sees a brand new future in Qu Jian'er.
Just because Qu Jianer was willing to tell them the identity of the Special Intelligence Bureau that was not known to outsiders.
District Chief Bai looked at his son with a smile: "I'm old, it's not worth risking the lives of my whole family."
Dean Bai heard the implication of District Chief Bai's words. He went against his father's wishes for the first time: "Father, you want me to refuse? Just watching you leave... I can't do it."
On the one hand, it is the life of the whole family, on the other hand, it is the life of the father and the future of the Bai family.
This made him hesitate, who had always been cold-blooded.
So much so.
Soon after.
Answer Qu Jian also hesitated when he was a child.
Qu Jian'er said very understandingly: "I know it's difficult for you. After all, I will also be skeptical when facing new and unknown clinical treatment plans."
Dean Bai: "..." Do you regard overthrowing the empire as a new clinical treatment plan?
Then who is the attending physician!?
You!!?
Qu Jian'er smiled and said: "You can think of this as an investment. I'm not asking you to take sides now. I just don't want to start a fight then. I don't know if there is another team to choose from."
Dean Bai pursed his lips into a straight line.
Qu Jian'er shook his wrist: "Have you thought about it?"
Dean Bai has lost his temper.
Seeing Dean Bai sigh.
Qu Jian'er knew that the other party agreed, so she showed the contract sheet that she had prepared for each family.
To keep the empire isolated.
She starts planning now.
After Dean Bai finished signing, he found that he had been tricked and he had no choice at all.
Qu Jian'er wouldn't let him refuse.
Because those who refuse will be time bombs, and bombs are dangers, and dangers cannot exist.
Bai Wei gave advice: "Put a charm on him to make sure he will be obedient."
She saw that Qu Jian'er was serious.
Quickly changed his mind.
Performed a real-life version of cheating.
Dean Bai looked at his daughter who quickly accepted the reality, feeling a little bitter in his heart.
He turned his attention to his son.
Bai Ru nodded: "Put one on me too. This will make you feel more secure. From now on, we will be the eldest brother's people!"
Dean Bai: "..." It seems that my son belongs to someone else without my knowledge.
Qu Jian'er rolled her eyes and refused bluntly: "Do you think my charms are wholesale? A contract for timely monitoring is enough."
Everyone was silent: "..." You acted too relaxed, don't blame us for thinking so.
