Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin watched Li Hong squat down slowly in the rain. Bai Chun, tall and slender, still held a horizontal knife and stood behind him with a scroll in his arms.
When the two women were hesitating whether to go over or not, a huge oil-paper umbrella was slowly brought from the street and covered the heads of Li Hong, Bai Chun, and Li Xian.
"I can't see, what should I do? Do you want to go over?" Pei Wanying turned to look at Yan Lingbin, blinking a pair of bright eyes that could speak, and asked.
"Is it... appropriate?" Yan Lingbin looked at the other literati in front of and behind him who were still lying in front of the window, and asked in a lowered voice.
"This..." Pei Wanying was also asked, should she pass or not
At this moment, the man who had just greeted them with a smile and was ignored by the two of them once again wore what he thought was a chic and calm smile. Seeing that there was no more fighting outside, he walked towards the two women who were muttering and said, "You two little girls Madam, I’m going to invite you…”
"It's neither appropriate nor appropriate. Let's go over. If he finds out that we saw it and doesn't go over, will it happen...?" Pei Wanying ignored the man. Her mind was completely focused on Li Hong. She had no time to pay attention to the people next to her. man.
"Yes, you will definitely be reprimanded if you find out, then... let's go... in the past?"
"Yes." Pei Wanying looked at Yan Lingbin, who was still a little hesitant, and nodded firmly, as if to cheer herself up and encourage Yan Lingbin.
The two women actually knew in their hearts, especially Pei Wanying, she knew even better that if the devil below found out that she secretly witnessed one of his fights, and then did not go down to find him, but ran away secretly, I am afraid that by then this Will the devil chase him home to question him
But is it as simple as just asking? Pei Wanying didn't dare to think too much, especially because she felt that Yan Lingbin looked at her strangely, and it seemed like she was scolding someone to get out of the way.
Pei Wanying raised her head and saw Yan Lingbin in front of her with a cold face, staring at a man coldly.
"What's wrong?" Pei Wanying glanced at the man and then at Yan Lingbin and asked.
"It's okay, this person is blocking our way and won't let us go down."
"You two ladies, although the fighting downstairs has stopped, there are still many people who have not left. It may be dangerous for you to go downstairs now, and the rain has not weakened. If anything happens, ladies..."
"This brother is right. Seeing that those people are Turks and Tubo people, they obviously don't have a good impression of us, the people of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, they wouldn't suddenly start fighting here, so you two Girls, you might as well stay a little longer, and after the officials arrive and take them into custody, you might as well leave again." Another man heard the conversation here, turned his head and almost screamed.
He had been coming here for a while, but he had never met such a beautiful woman. Just now he turned his head inadvertently, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Two stunning beauties were actually standing behind him.
Looking at the two equally tall and graceful figures, both their temperament and faces are no less beautiful than the fairy-like beauty in white downstairs.
Yan Lingbin and Pei Wanying were both smart and smart. With a turn of their talking eyes, they knew that these people did not know the identities of Li Hong and others downstairs, and both of them had been wondering why the dignified Crown Prince would do this. Fighting and killing here
"People from the government are here, but for some reason, they have been standing outside the square and not coming in." A window on the opposite side was suddenly opened by a woman, looking at the groups of city guards at the entrance of the square, she said with a worried look.
As soon as the woman's words came out, the whole hall on the second floor immediately went into a panic. People immediately started talking: "How is this possible?"
"Did they collude with the government?"
"Now the governor of Jingzhao Mansion is the current prince. Is there anyone who is more powerful than the prince? Dare to act like this?"
"That's not true. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, can't cover everything, and worry about these little things, right? The people who want to come here to fight probably have some status, either because of the shops in the West Market, or the foreign traders are fighting for their own interests."
"If it is as my brother said, then the government should not intervene, right? Don't forget, the government of the Tang Dynasty has never been afraid of foreign traders."
There were several people talking eloquently around them. People not far from Yan Lingbin and Pei Wanying were talking loudly about their opinions, but their eyes glanced at Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin from time to time, hoping to attract people with their clear and coherent conversation. caught the attention of the two women.
But the two women's minds were not at all on their conversation at the moment. They knew better than anyone else that the person downstairs was the Crown Prince who they said was in charge of the Jingzhao Mansion!
But at this moment, something happened that made the two of them unable to even think about going downstairs. As the rain outside the window a little lessened, a black wolf as black as a calf appeared quietly in the alley. inside.
"Bai Qi!" Pei Wanying exclaimed, and immediately covered her mouth with her hands after becoming alert. She couldn't believe how Bai Qi came here.
Yan Lingbin heard Pei Wanying's exclamation and hurriedly looked over, only to see Bai Qi sniffing along the corner of the wall from time to time in the rain. Then he would look up to see the rain, and then vigorously shake his shiny black hair. After a while, Bai Qi seemed even more mighty and majestic.
"It's all your fault. Just forget about it. It found it on its own." Pei Wanying glanced at Yan Lingbin angrily.
The two girls originally planned to go to the temple to offer incense, and then wanted to come to the poetry club to sit for a while. It was convenient to bring Bai Qi with them when offering incense, but if they came to the poetry club and brought Bai Qi with them, I'm afraid the poetry club would be destroyed in the blink of an eye. Bai Qi was so scared that no one was left.
So the two women simply placed Bai Qi at the door of a familiar fabric shop and told him to wait patiently and pick him up later.
But the two girls didn't want to but met Li Hong here, and instantly forgot about Bai Qi. At this moment, they saw Bai Qi slowly walking from the entrance of the alley, sniffing in the air from time to time, obviously following the smell. Here they are.
Bai Qi's behavior suddenly touched the softest part of the two women's hearts. As a result, Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin were so moved that they couldn't stay up there if a wolf was so affectionate and righteous.
After glancing at Bai Qi from the window again and confirming his location, the two women hurriedly held hands and ran down the stairs regardless of other people's dissuasion.
The panicked voice of Mr. Poetry Club came from downstairs: "You two ladies, you can't go out now..."
"It's okay. We have an emergency. There won't be any danger outside. Thank you."
The two women who had just rushed into the rain saw Bai Qi raising his head. After their eyes met, they were both stunned. Then Bai Qi suddenly looked up to the sky and howled in the rain, and the sound of wolf howls suddenly spread from the alley. go out.
"That's a wolf!" A scholar looked at two stunning beauties leaving in a hurry, his expression full of loneliness. He couldn't help but lie on the window, wanting to take another look at the two beauties.
But when he looked at it, he saw the two women running towards the wolf quickly. Just when he was about to open his mouth to warn that it was a wolf, not a dog, and to be careful, he saw one of the women suddenly hugged him without any defense!
She actually hugged the head of the wolf that looked like a calf! The other one was smiling like a flower in the rain, stroking her back that was wet by the rain. Both women looked particularly happy.
There was a row of lonely Tang Dynasty scholars at the window. They looked at Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin with various expressions, dumbfounded, lonely, and complicated.
On the opposite side of the alley, among the dozens of people who had just fought, two people suddenly walked slowly towards the wolf and the two women.
The scholars upstairs were shocked. These people were obviously murderers without blinking an eye. Now the wolf howled, and it was obviously heard by others. It was coming to cause trouble for them.
"Oh, I'm really anxious. What should I do now?"
"Are you just going to watch those two stunning beauties being killed by them..."
"Does anyone come with me to rescue them?... Even to beg for mercy?... I believe those people will not kill innocent people indiscriminately." The man who had been trying to strike up a conversation with Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin just now looked at the dozen or so people on the window. A scholar asked loudly.
But what he answered was endless silence and whispers, and no one paid attention to his proposal.
The man looked a little embarrassed when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, but he was asked to go down alone to rescue two women who looked like gods. He didn't have the courage and courage, so he had no choice but to punch the window edge as if to vent his anger. The two big men walked towards the two women and the howling black wolf.
"If the wolf hadn't howled, they wouldn't have..."
"What are they talking about?"
"It doesn't look like he's questioning them."
"Ah...!" People in a row on the window sill suddenly exclaimed at the same time.
Everyone at the window saw two men suddenly taking out an oil-paper umbrella each. They stretched their arms straight and held the umbrella above the heads of the two women. However, the two of them were standing beside each other. The two women kept as far apart as possible.
When passing by the poetry club, although the scholars upstairs could no longer see the two stunning beauties with their heavenly appearance, the graceful figure occasionally exposed from the umbrella still made their positions reverse, and they were even more confused about the identity of the two women. Curious.
The two men were respectful, no matter how you looked at them, they didn't look like friends, but more like servants and domestic slaves, protecting the two women as they walked towards the huge oil-paper umbrella.
Li Hong listened to the footsteps behind him and looked at Li Xian who was still looking at him angrily. He sighed and said, "Work hard and come with Bai Chun to escort the people out of the house."
"Your Highness, I'm sorry, I can't help but obey my order." Bai Chun ignored Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin who were approaching behind him. His beautiful cheeks were expressionless, and he said calmly while looking at the rain still falling in front of him.
