Thinking of the young man who said "Brother Bai bought me" just now, and the surname is Bai, Zicao guessed that it might have something to do with Bai Fuling, so she turned her head and whispered to Bai Fuling: "Miss Bai, can you replace me?" Advise him?"
"Give me a reason first, why should I help you?" Bai Fuling said.
"Uh, as long as Miss Bai helps me with this favor, I, Zicao, will remember this favor. I will try my best to help Miss Bai if there is anything to do in the future!" Zicao hesitantly patted her chest and promised. She thought about raising the name of the leader of Haida, but she was afraid that Miss Bai would be thin-skinned and would become angry and refuse to agree, so it would be self-defeating.
Bai Fuling smiled and asked, "What will you do?"
"He is good at cheating and kidnapping!" Zicao raised her head and chest, very proud.
Bai Fuling heard it funny, but this Zicao is quite an interesting person, so she nodded and said, "Okay! I'll help you with this. Tell me first, what does that person have to do with you?"
Zicao sighed: "It is Master Yuan Xiang, who is in charge of the affairs of the Jingzhou Prefecture in my Jiyuntang. Two days ago, when I was hunting down the Yanxia three thieves, I fell into their trap and was seriously injured. The doctor said that he could not delay for ten days at most. He only had This wish is not fulfilled, please go to my master...Miss Bai, please help me."
Bai Fuling smiled and walked in front of the young man. She walked around the village for a long time today, and everyone in the village recognized her. Although the young man was furious, he still knew that he wanted to salute her, obediently calling her "Miss" .
"I know you hate that guy, and no one here likes him, but since he's about to die, wouldn't it be a pleasure for you to go and see how miserable he is?" Bai Fuling cut straight to the point when she came up .
This place is very similar to the customs in ancient China, which emphasizes filial piety. Even if the father of a young man has done such a wrong thing, most people still feel that he should be filial to his father before his death. However, many of the onlookers present were betrayed by their parents, and they were more or less resentful in their hearts. In addition, they usually regarded the Bai family as reborn parents, so although they felt that Bai Fuling's words were inappropriate, no one objected.
Only Zicao was sweating coldly, but she also knew that this might be the fastest way to encourage the young man to go with her, so she could only make a fortune in silence.
The young man was full of dissatisfaction and resentment towards his father. Bai Fuling's words were obviously aimed at persuading him to see his father for the last time, but it sounded much more pleasant to his ears than talking about filial piety, but he was still a little unwilling, bowed his head and said nothing. Say nothing.
Bai Fuling knew that he was moved, so she worked harder and continued to push her forward: "You go to see him, you can tell him how much you hate him, you will never forgive him, let him die without regret, it can be regarded as revenge for your mother! Or Are you afraid to see him? Afraid that once you see him, you can't help but pity him and forgive him for what he did to you and your mother? "
The boy suddenly raised his head and said loudly, "I, I won't!"
"Go if you don't! See how he died, and then completely forget about those messy things in the past and live your own life." Bai Fuling made a final decision, and winked at Mrs. Hu who was standing beside him. Mrs. Hu Push him cooperatively.
The boy finally gritted his teeth and nodded, and walked towards Zicao.
Bai Fuling said to Zicao: "Don't forget what you promised! Also, he is from my family, please remember to send him back properly."
Zicao smiled wryly and nodded, leading the boy there. She didn't know if she was doing the right thing or wrong in asking Bai Fuling for help. If this young man really said something particularly exciting in front of Yuan Xiangzhu, it would be troublesome.
On the way to the other courtyard of Yunque Mountain, Mrs. Hu hesitated to speak a few times, and finally couldn't help pulling Bai Fuling, and said in a low voice: "Miss, Xiaoyu, will something happen if he goes like this?"
Xiao Yu is the boy who left with Zicao just now, because he resented his biological father, he changed his mother's surname in a fit of anger. Mrs. Hu was embarrassed to criticize Bai Fuling's words of "stimulating dissension" between father and son, but she was really worried that after seeing her father, Xiaoyu would follow Bai Fuling's "teaching" and drive him to death.
Bai Fuling didn't care too much and said: "It's good to be able to see each other for the last time. Anyway, that Yuan Xiangzhu died happy or sad. He always has to bear the responsibility for the wrong things he did. We are not Xiaoyu, we are very happy. It's hard to understand his feelings, no matter what he will say or do to Yuan Xiangzhu in the end, as long as he can let go of his burdens and leave no regrets. He still has many years to live, and he can't let him live with his demons all his life. happy."
She has seen the cycle of life and death, and regards death more lightly than anyone else in the world. In her view, death is like a lamp being extinguished. Whether it is going to the 18th hell or reincarnation, this life is over, and the important thing is those who are still alive. people's feelings.
Mrs. Hu still felt a little disapproving, but it was useless to think too much about it.
Bai Shu is Bai Chou's old brother. The two haven't seen each other for many years.
On October 21st, Duke Zhongguo's Mansion sent a carriage to pick him up early in the morning, led by Madam Wang and a housekeeper surnamed Xiong, accompanied by two maids and two servants. Nanny Wang and Steward Xiong are both old people in the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion, and they have seen the terrifying appearance of the Bai couple long ago. Apart from being a little excited when they saw the young lady, they were very calm.
And the maids and servants they brought with them should have been reminded beforehand that seeing the extreme appearances of the three members of the Bai family was not too abnormal.
The carriage soon arrived at the south gate of the capital. People who entered the capital had to be inspected. There was a long queue at the gate of the city. There were special marks on the carriage sent by the Duke of Zhongguo. The people are also a privileged class in comparison, so naturally they don't need to queue up for interrogation. Butler Xiong ordered the driver to move on, and he rode his horse to the front to say hello to the guards.
When the carriage was still more than ten feet away from the city gate, there was a sudden commotion at the gate of the city. Dozens of healthy horses rushed straight out of the city. The riders on the horses were both men and women, and they didn't care about the people fleeing in panic. Instead, they jogged and ran quickly, but after a while, the dozens of riders passed by the carriage of the Bai family, leaving only a mess at the gate of the city. Many people were bruised and sprained while avoiding. run down.
Grandma Wang accompanied the Bai family in a carriage. Seeing this scene, she sighed lightly and introduced herself: "This is the fifth princess and some dignitaries from the capital going out to play in the city. The fifth princess and the eldest prince are all born by Concubine Mao. I have loved riding, archery and swimming since I was a child."
Bai Fuling frowned and didn't speak, the capital city is really an annoying place!
Mu Peilan noticed her daughter's displeasure, and lightly hugged her into her arms and patted her a few times. These small movements fell into the eyes of Wang Momo, but they interpreted another meaning—the timid and weak girl was frightened.
The last time she and Madam Zhang went to Baili Mountain, they came and went in a hurry. They didn't stay in Beiguan City and didn't inquire about Bai Fuling's "excellent reputation". In the end, he didn't say a few words, but stayed beside Mu Peilan. They were secretly shocked by Bai Fuling's stunning beauty, which was better than Mu Peilan's. They never thought that this delicate-looking girl was actually an out-and-out Tyrannosaurus rex.
It's also because Bai Fuling's face is too deceptive. As long as she sits quietly, anyone who looks at it will think of such beautiful adjectives as pure and beautiful, innocent and childish, well-behaved and elegant, weak and slender.
Thinking of what the "superior" explained, Wang Momo couldn't help but secretly nodded, the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became.
Bai Fuling originally wanted to pretend to be a sick and weak beautiful girl, so that she could go back to Yunqueshan Hospital to "recover her illness", so she patiently restrained herself.
Mu Peilan just wanted to quickly see her mother whom she hadn't seen in ten years, but she couldn't help being a little timid, staring at the familiar and unfamiliar street scene passing by outside the window screen.
What Bai Chou thought of was the various entanglements between the Yasukuni Duke's Mansion and the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion. According to the news received earlier, the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion suddenly sent someone to pick up their family and come back to visit relatives. It was so simple, not only related to the succession of the title, but maybe even his precious daughter's idea. As long as the mother-in-law is still in the capital, the wife will not feel at ease all day, so she has to think of a good way to drag the mother-in-law out of this muddy water. Other things are easy to do, but it is a big problem to persuade the mother-in-law to leave with them.
Everyone in the car had their own concerns, and they all fell silent for a while.
The Duke of Zhongguo's Mansion is in the east of the city, and this large area is occupied by princes and nobles, who cannot afford it for other officials. The streets are wide and flat, and even the clothes of pedestrians on the street are higher-end than other places. Not to mention the various luxury cars and sedans constantly shuttling on the street, one would never imagine the barrenness and desolation of other parts of Qi State just by looking at the bustling scenery in this area.
Every tens of feet on the street is a black-painted gate, and the auspicious stone beasts in front of the gate have various shapes, silently watching the endless stream of vehicles, horses and pedestrians on the street. However, some of the gates are new and solemn, with servants wearing silk shirts standing in front of the gates, while others are dilapidated, with peeling black paint on the door panels and mottled stone beasts, it is obvious that the people living inside have been dilapidated for a long time.
This is the ecology of the capital. There will always be some people laughing and triumphant, and some people are gloomy. Yesterday was still full of scenery, but now the family may be scattered.
Duke Zhong's Mansion and Duke Jing's Mansion live next to each other, and the two gates occupy the right half of the entire Baiyu Street. Thinking about it, they were once magnificent in those days. Although they are not desolate in front of the gate today, the traffic and horses are getting less and less.
Bai Fuling remembered Bai Qian's saying that although the two mansions have their own gates, the inner gardens, verandas, ponds and pavilions are all connected. It is also regarded as his own place. Both Duke Jingguo and her grandmother, Mrs. Zhongguo, are ill. The former is selfish, while the latter is unintentional. Now, in Zhongguogong's mansion, apart from the yard where her grandmother lived and the yard where her mother lived, Most of the places have been occupied by people from the Yasukuni government.
