Chapter 15 Stormy Days
Heavy rain fell overnight, and finally turned into a light rain the next morning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As soon as the sky was bright, Wang Zhou, who was sleeping at the door, heard the constant knocking on the door on the first floor, glanced at Bai Li, who was still sleeping, and made sure that everything that happened last night was not a dream, so he opened the door and went to the first floor.
Compared to the bright second floor, the first floor is still a little dark, but it can still be discerned.
The knock on the door kept ringing, and Wang Zhou said helplessly: "Come, come, don't knock, the door is going to be knocked down, this door is precious and tight." ”
Hearing this, the knocking on the door immediately stopped.
Wang Zhou opened the door in a daze, only to see that it was no one else standing outside the door, it was Sister-in-law Li, she was holding an ordinary oil-paper umbrella in her hand, and another umbrella in her hand, coughing from time to time, seeing Wang Zhou, she asked anxiously: "Steward Wang, it can be seen that my sister, she didn't go back all night last night, I suffered from the cold last night, and went to bed early, thinking that she would go home by herself, so I didn't come to pick her up, but I didn't see her at all this morning." ”
Sister-in-law Li's words were slowly anxious, coupled with her pale face, and the sound of coughing made Wang Zhou unable to have any doubts.
"Sister-in-law Li, don't worry, Sister Ali is upstairs ......," Wang Zhou explained.
Listening to this, the expression on Sister-in-law Li's face became more and more strange, as if she was questioning Wang Zhou, didn't you do anything strange to my sister.
Sister-in-law Li has been working in this Qionghua Pavilion for so many years, and she also knows that there is only Wang Zhou's own room in this Qionghua Pavilion, this is not because Ni Baye picked the door and did not get Wang Zhou a mansion, but completely because Wang Zhou likes to live in Qionghua Pavilion.
didn't say much, Sister-in-law Li immediately ran upstairs, and found Wang Zhou's room with ease, first seeing Wang Zhou's floor at the door, and then seeing Bai Li, who had sat up from the bed.
Bai Li also saw Sister-in-law Li, the joy on her face was vividly expressed, and she shouted happily: "Sister-in-law." ”
Seeing that Bai Li was safe and sound, Sister-in-law Li turned around to thank Wang Zhou, then bent down to pack up Wang Zhou's bedding, walked into the door and closed the door with a "bang", almost not letting Wang Zhou's nose hit the door.
However, after a stick of incense, Wang Zhou heard the quarrel in the room, it seemed that because of Bai Li's escape from marriage, Sister-in-law Li reprimanded loudly, and occasionally Bai Li's sobs could be heard.
When Wang Zhou was about to rush into the room to make a speech, a familiar shout came from the first floor below, as if it was Xiaolan's voice.
Hurriedly ran to the first floor, it was none other than Xiaocui and Xiaolan, the two of them saw Wang Zhou and hurriedly saluted.
"Why are you two here so early today? Wang Zhou couldn't help frowning, Bai Li and Sister-in-law Li were still in their rooms.
"Out, something is wrong, the king is in charge, the chief Qin is dead in the ******, it is said that he was killed by a prostitute, the woman has poison on her lips, and she will be treated by the chief Qin and the prostitute. Xiaolan couldn't go on.
Wang Zhou frowned slightly, and said lightly: "It's okay, the safety of our Qionghua Pavilion has never been Qin Biao's responsibility, by the way, you two came over so early, you shouldn't have breakfast yet, I have a little broken silver here, you go have some breakfast first." ”
Xiaocui and Xiaolan looked at the broken silver in Wang Zhou's hand, and looked at each other, today the king steward has changed his sex, although he was puzzled in his heart, he still took the broken silver, and ran away in a moment.
As the two ran out of Qionghua Pavilion, Wang Zhou also closed the door tightly, so early in the morning, to avoid anyone breaking in.
Everything is as Bai Li expected, Qin Biao's status is precious in the eyes of ordinary people, which will naturally cause many people to discuss, but in the eyes of the core figures of Ni Mansion, Qin Biao's death is nothing at all, he is purely his own death.
knew that the prostitute had a grudge against him to kill his sister, and he wanted to conquer her, but he died in the belly of the prostitute.
color is the sharpest boning knife.
On the second floor, the quarrel between Sister-in-law Li and Bai Li finally stopped, Bai Li's state looked much better, and she was still limping when she walked, but at least she was able to walk on her own, which was good news.
After staying for a while, Sister-in-law Li seemed to be ready to leave, and handed an oil-paper umbrella she brought with her to Bai Li's hand and said, "I don't know if it will rain today, take the umbrella with you." He also shook Bai Li's hand tightly.
Then, Sister-in-law Li called Wang Zhou aside, and said with a little apology on her face: "I'm causing trouble to Steward Wang, Ah Li, she doesn't want to go back with me for the time being, she has to stay and do things, and I hope that Steward Wang will take care of her." As he spoke, he took out a silver ticket and handed it to Wang Zhou.
Wang Zhou naturally couldn't take the silver ticket, he wanted to leave a good impression on Bai Li, Sister-in-law Li was very insistent, and in the end, Wang Zhou had to take the silver ticket, handed it to Bai Li casually and said: "Then keep this bit of silver for Sister Ali to buy something delicious and drinkable." ”
"Thank you Steward Wang, Ah Li, you have to be more careful, I'll go back first. Sister-in-law Li coughed and turned to leave.
In the entire Qionghua Pavilion, in the blink of an eye, only Bai Li and Wang Zhou remained.
There is a warm and peaceful place in the Qionghua Pavilion, but the outside is already a mess, Qin Biao is a person from Ni Mansion, there is such a big event, Ni Baye doesn't believe that a little prostitute dares to do such a bold thing, not to mention, the sister's matter has also passed for a while, Qin Biao has also asked the woman to accompany the wine before, only because he was busy during that time, he didn't violate her, but usually accompanied by physical contact, why didn't such a thing happen at that time, but it happened on the thunderstorm night last night。
It's intriguing.
Without saying a word, Ni Baye immediately sent people to surround the entire ******, in the entire Northern Desert, even the officials of the imperial court have to be half a head short of Ni Baye here, not to mention the ****** of this district, its backstage is quite big, but it is not as good as Ni Baye's backstage.
"Check me, everything that has been in the ****** yesterday, unknown or outsiders, all of them will be arrested for me. Ni Baye gave another order.
Even the guards guarding Ni Mansion have been taken away, and the soldiers patrolling the streets have also joined in this big inspection, and the city gates leading to the outside world in the Northern Desert are all closed, and they are not allowed to enter or exit, and they can be released when all the unknown people who enter the city are arrested.
Tie Hangsheng pretended to be Sister-in-law Li and walked quietly through the main streets, but his heart was already full of turmoil.
Unexpectedly, Ni Baye had such influence in the Northern Desert, and even the officials and soldiers were willing to obey his deployment. Thinking of the recent assassination of the court officials in the Scarlet Rain Building, Tie Hangsheng felt more and more frightened.
