The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply

Chapter 298 Testing

In the next few days, Bai Zhaozhao went to sit on Bai Lin's roof every night, but he never heard the sound of the system again.

Bai Lin is also very busy. Almost every day he goes straight to bed after coming home and goes out early in the morning.

After a few days of fruitless results, Bai Zhaozhao decided to take the initiative. She didn't like feeling so passive.

That day, Bai Lin was on a day off and stayed in the study without coming out.

Bai Zhaozhao walked in with a lunch box, startling Bai Lin: "Zhaozhao, why don't you knock on the door first?"

"Ok!"

Bai Zhaozhao immediately stepped out of the door, closed it, and started knocking.

Bai Lin: ...

"come in."

Bai Zhaozhao said with a smile: "Brother, why are you still working so hard when you are resting? The emperor won't give you a fiefdom."

Bai Lin said helplessly: "Do you think it's so easy to get a fief? So many people are watching! You are the one who gets the fief, but I am the one who suffers from jealousy! How can I satisfy His Majesty if I don't do more work?"

Bai Zhaozhao felt a little guilty, and then said unwillingly: "The emperor is not following martial ethics. It is clear that the credit was given to me by Li Rongyue, how can he exploit you? Besides, I also contributed a lot in Yuncheng, so I have made contributions!"

Bai Lin's eyes flickered: "The emperor said that Li Rongyue killed Gao Zhen to protect you, and then you tried to frame Lin Nianqing. Is this true?"

Bai Zhaozhao nodded: "It's true, but this matter is a bit complicated. I didn't go there for Gao Zhen, but for the Wu clan.

Brother, let me tell you, Lin Nianqing pretended to be a member of the Xie family, deceived the girl from the Wu clan, and stole her treasure..."

Seeing Bai Zhaozhao speaking with great excitement, Bai Lin put down his pen and listened quietly. The emperor had only told him a general outline before, but he didn't expect the details to sound even more exciting.

Finally, Bai Zhaozhao asked, "Brother, what do you think of Li Rongyue? Is she a good person?"

Bai Lin was shocked, his face calm and serious: "Well, it's very good, but not suitable for you."

Bai Zhaozhao: ...

Did she mean it?

“Why not for me?”

Bai Lin took a deep breath and said, "First, he set up a tunnel in the border town. This is not a one-day job. It shows that he has been paying attention to Goryeo and has deep intentions.

Since he went to the border town secretly, it meant that he didn't want to be discovered. It meant that he knew that the emperor was afraid of the Northwest Army and the Xie Family Army being involved. If Gao Zhen had not been killed, he would not have reported it to the emperor at all.

The emperor agreed to give you the credit not necessarily out of trust in him, but rather because he didn't want to give him credit, but it was difficult to punish him. He just took this opportunity to get away, which not only pleases you, but also shows his loyalty, and at the same time makes friends with the Xie family, killing three birds with one stone."

Bai Zhaozhao deeply agrees: "Then he is so outstanding, is he not worthy of me?"

Bai Lin chuckled and looked at Bai Zhaozhao meaningfully: "Qi Da is not an equal!"

Bai Zhaozhao: ...

Bai Lin meant that she was not worthy of Li Rongyue!

He is undoubtedly my brother!

Seeing Bai Zhaozhao's indescribable expression, Bai Lin began to comfort him, "Zhaozhao, although our Bai family has risen rapidly, we can't compare with the aristocratic families that have been passed down for hundreds of years.

Look at the Princess of Qingyang County. She and the daughter of the Zhang family are sisters-in-law, and they are both your good friends. On the surface, their statuses are similar.

But the Zhang family is only a subsidiary of the Zhong family, while the Xie family is the support of the Qingyang County Lord, so in fact the two people’s right to speak is completely different.”

Bai Zhaozhao was silent for a moment. Indeed, the Princess of Qingyang would be a clan member if she married Zhong Jingchen, and would become the wife of the head of the Zhong family in the future. Zhang Ruolan was considered marrying up if she married Zhong Jingfeng, and would most likely work for Qingyang in the future.

This has nothing to do with their abilities, but only with the strength of their families.

To be honest, if Bai Zhaozhao had not become the adopted daughter of Prince An, and if Bai Lin had not been so powerful that he not only became the top scholar but also made a path of his own in the court, the Bai family would most likely have become like the Zhang family, dependent on the Zhong family!

It is absolutely impossible to be a cooperative relationship like it is now!

So Bai Lin wanted to tell Bai Zhaozhao that marrying into a wealthy family was not suitable for her because her family could not provide her with support.

Although she knew that Bai Lin was right, Bai Zhaozhao still felt a little unhappy, and she couldn't explain why.

"So, brother, what kind of person do you think I should find in the future?"

"As long as you like it, it's better if you are not as good as me, your brother."

"Oh... then, what kind of girls do you like, brother?"

"Well...be quiet, and it's better not to send me cakes every now and then."

"..."

Bai Zhaozhao was completely speechless. Bai Lin knew how to play bothersome people, but she still opened the food box calmly.

"Brother, I have a new drug...ah, cake. After eating it, you can sleep well. Do you want to try it?"

"Host! Host! You can't eat it. I have scanned it. This pastry is poisonous. It will turn you into a fool! Bai Zhaozhao wants to harm you!"

Bai Lin looked at the pastries calmly and said helplessly: "Zhao Zhao, I'm not hungry now, let's eat later!"

Bai Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Okay, by the way, brother, I want to tell you something."

"what?"

"Do you remember the apparition of the goddess?"

Bai Lin was stunned: "Of course I remember."

"Oh, when I was in Jiangling County, the goddess appeared again. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Bai Lin was silent for a moment: "It's quite a coincidence."

Bai Zhaozhao also looked at Bai Lin meaningfully: "Brother, coincidence is not necessarily God's will, right?"

Bai Lin looked at Bai Zhaozhao deeply: "Yes."

Bai Zhaozhao smiled again: "I'll go back to my room first, brother, remember to eat the cakes."

After saying that, Bai Zhaozhao left.

Of course, she didn't go back to her room, but hid not far away.

Bai Lin had a gloomy look on his face. He sat at the table, staring at the pastries in a daze.

"System, are you sure Zhao Zhao doesn't know you exist?"

"Of course, although she has a spiritual object, she has no real self-awareness, let alone the possibility of knowing my existence."

"Why are you so sure?"

"I have investigated."

"But... Zhao Zhao already suspects me."

"What? Impossible!"

"I'm sure I didn't reveal any flaws. It must be you. She should have sensed something."

The system was silent for a while: "Unless her spirit creature develops intelligence and then senses my existence."

"Hmph, could it be that he sensed your ill intentions?"

"If it's malicious, doesn't your intention count? She wants to poison you!"

"No, she's showing her sincerity."

"Sincerity? Poisoning is sincerity?"

"She said that coincidences are not necessarily God's will, they could also be man-made! She is telling me her secret!"
