Hearing Liu Yueyao mention this matter, Zhu Yu was somewhat surprised.
Not only had she met Bai Qihong, but she had also had some dealings with him. Previously, at the border between Jin Country and Shuo Land, he had weathered days of rain while working tirelessly on canal construction, earning her admiration for his diligence and responsibility.
In her impression, Bai Qihong was not particularly talkative, but he had a gentle demeanor, certainly not a man with a violent temper. Especially in terms of presence, he was vastly different from his Yue Family.
She found it hard to imagine that someone like Vice Minister Bai, in a situation that was set, would still voluntarily return to see the Holy Emperor, risking angering Emperor Jin, to plead not to be reassigned to the Ministry of Justice.
