The guard suppressed the shock in his heart, lowered his head and responded respectfully.
If the Bai family offends the prince... it can only lead to death.

courtyard.
The blood-red skirt is like a blooming rose, lazily spread in the pavilion.
Bai Yan, who was sleeping with her back against the peach tree, felt a weight on her body, and a soft little body pressed into her arms.
The little guy's body was soft and fragrant, which made Bai Yan, who had closed her eyes to rest, open her eyes.
"Mother," a bright smile burst out on Bai Xiaochen's face, his little hands hooked around Bai Yan's neck, and he blinked his big eyes curiously, "What were you thinking about just now?"
"I miss you, Master."
In this world, apart from Bai Xiao and the Lan family, her master is the person she is closest to.
He is also the person she has spent the most time with since she came to this world.
"Mom, don't you want to be your father?" Bai Xiaochen pouted her pink lips, her face obviously unhappy.
He misses his godfather. Why doesn't his mother miss him?
Bai Yan smiled and hugged Bai Xiaochen tightly: "I also miss your godfather, but I owe him so much that I will never be able to repay it in this life..."
Chu Yifeng has an indifferent temperament, but for such an indifferent man, he wants to give everything to her.
It's a pity that she only has family affection for Chu Yifeng, not love...
Just when Bai Xiaochen wanted to say a few good words for Chu Yifeng, hurried footsteps came from outside the garden.
Bai Yan turned around and stared at Hua Luo, who was coming in a hurry. The corners of her lips raised slightly: "Hua Luo, is Chu Yiyi back?"
"Master," Hua Luo walked up to Bai Yan and smiled seductively, "Just now, my subordinate saw an announcement at the city gate."
"What announcement?" Bai Yan asked with raised eyebrows.
"Prince Cang has his destiny. If Bai Zhenxiang wants to save Bai Zhi, he will use Mrs. Lan Yue's dowry in exchange for it."
While saying this, Hua Luo glanced at Bai Yan cautiously, as if she wanted to find something on Bai Yan's face.
But Bai Yan's face was always calm and traceless, and her black eyes were calm: "I understand."
"Well……"
Hua Luo glanced at Bai Yan in surprise. Di Cang asked for Lan Yue's dowry for her. As a result, she knew it with just one sentence?
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that King Cang did this to please her.
"Hua Luo, you go down first and tell me when Yiyi comes back."
"Yes, Master."
Seeing Bai Yan, she was unmoved. Hua Luo didn't say anything more, accepted the order and retreated.
After she left, Bai Yan's arms around Bai Xiaochen tightened slightly, with a complicated look in her eyes: "Chen'er, why does he help me like this?"
"Chen'er doesn't know."
Bai Xiaochen leaned obediently in Bai Yan's arms, his big eyes twinkling like stars at night, bright and dazzling.
"Mother, Chen'er suddenly felt that the big bad guy is not that hateful..."
Bai Yan smiled faintly.
If Di Cang really wanted to take revenge for what he had done six years ago, he would have done so long ago with his strength.
But he didn't do that.
but……
The reason why Di Cang treated her special was simply because she didn't make him hate her, and she even gave birth to his son.
He doesn't love her.
That being the case, how could her heart... be shaken by this?
"Mom, aren't you happy?" Bai Xiaochen may have noticed Bai Yan's emotions. He raised his little head and rubbed Bai Yan with his cute nose, "If having a father makes mother unhappy, then Chen'er
