Bai Qingping lowered his eyes, still sitting on the chair in his usual proper manner. However, his fists quietly clenched as he replied placidly, "I wasn't involved when the bandits were being suppressed, so I don't know the specifics."
"You don't know, but that son of the Governor, Shen Yanzong, who's always hanging around you, surely knows!" Bai Qiyun was quite dissatisfied with Bai Qingping's evasive attitude. "You didn't think to ask? That's over four hundred thousand taels of silver!"
"If we find those silver notes, the Princess of Zhen will either use the silver for training troops and suppressing bandits, or she'll use it for repairing the clan's ancestral hall, acquiring clan land, and other matters as mentioned earlier. Now that Uncle has been excluded from the clan, I don't understand why you're inquiring about this silver?"
Bai Qingping was extremely disgusted by Bai Qiyun's behavior but couldn't show it. His words inevitably had a sharp edge to them.
