Bai Qi saw that the scholars respected Mr. Kong so much, and guessed in his heart that he was Kong Beihai, the owner of the teahouse that Xiao Er said. When Bai Qi looked at Kong Beihai, Kong Beihai also noticed Bai Qi's face, so he walked over with a smile and said: "This son looks tight, in Xia Kong Beihai, please ask the son's surname?" ”
Bai Qi also stood up and said, "Under Bai Qi!" ”
As Bai Qi reported his name, everyone present was stunned, they were still talking about Bai Qi just now, but they didn't expect Bai Qi to be on the side in front of the audience.
Kong Beihai had a calm expression on his face, probably thinking that everyone was talking about Bai Qi just now, and he couldn't help laughing.
Bai Qi was about to say something to blend the atmosphere, but he didn't expect that at this time, Huzi outside the door ran in panting, raised his eyes and saw Bai Qi, and immediately stepped forward and said: "Brother Qi, you don't say hello when you come out, there are guests at home, and the ladies let us look for you all over the street, so we almost didn't mobilize the army." ”
Bai Qi originally wanted to take this opportunity to befriend Kong Beihai, but now he could only give up. Before leaving, Bai Qi certainly did not forget to say to Kong Hokkai: "Mr. Kong, there is something temporary today, and he will definitely visit him in person one day." ”
During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty in the previous life, the dominance of the Manchus in the Central Plains was in jeopardy, and a strategist suggested to Shunzhi that the scholars were the elite of the people in the world, and as long as the scholars were done, the world would be basically peaceful. Bai Qi has always thought that this is very reasonable, so he has been thinking about how to mingle with local scholars recently, but he didn't expect the opportunity to be sent to the door by himself, although he can't officially make friends with Kong Beihai this time, but it also leaves a foreshadowing for meeting in the future.
Bai Qi hurried home. When I entered the gate, I saw Xue Crimson and Su Xiangyun waiting anxiously in the courtyard, and when she saw Bai Qi appear, Xue Crimson hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Husband, my mother and younger brother have come to us." ”
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this, how could this be? In the south, Bai Yunfan and Xue Yi had a lively fight, and Xue Yiran and the orphan actually came to the door to take refuge, which was really surprising to Bai Qi, wasn't Li Liying afraid that she would tie them all up and send them to the capital? Besides, how did they get out? Bai Qi had always thought that important people in the palace should have died in the war, and now he suddenly appeared here.
Xue Crimson clearly felt the strangeness of Bai Qi's mood. At this time, Xue Crimson was also extremely conflicted in her heart. At the beginning, Bai Qi participated in the rebellion, which made Xue Crimson very embarrassed, and when she learned that her father had died, she was even more seriously ill, and she only got better after almost a month. Bai Qi took her to Jiezhou. This also changed Xue Crimson's opinion of Bai Qi somewhat, at least Xue Crimson now thinks that Bai Qi's actions were completely out of self-preservation. After a woman gets married. is often still inclined to her husband's land in her heart, so her resentment towards Bai Qi has also disappeared a lot. Now that her mother has come to take refuge with her younger brother, Xue Crimson is first surprised, then worried, so she decides to persuade Bai Qi to accept them first.
"How did they escape?" Bai Qi touched the situation first quietly.
"Father asked Yun Lao to take advantage of the chaos to take dozens of guards to protect them and kill them, and they were constantly hunted down and killed along the way. Now there are only a dozen or so left, but fortunately they have escaped to us, and they are finally safe. Xue Crimson kept looking at Bai Qi when she was talking, whether it was safe or not, it depended on Bai Qi's attitude, if Bai Qi really turned to his father and took down all the people, Xue Crimson could only stare dryly.
"Let's go, take me to them first." Bai Qi was about to go inside as he spoke, but Xue Crimson grabbed Bai Qi and said, "They are not in the mansion, they are still outside the city, but in the morning Yun Lao came to report the news alone, I thought about it and decided to tell you." Xue Crimson told the truth.
"Alright, I'll take someone to fetch them back." As soon as Bai Qi finished speaking, Xue Crimson took over and said, "Yun Lao said, you can only go to see them alone." ”
In any case, it is better to take the initiative for the princess and the prince to fall into their own hands than to fall into the hands of others, so Bai Qi agreed without thinking about it: "Okay, you take me there." At this time, Su Xiangyun, who had not spoken, said: "Husband, I will accompany you, and I also want to meet my aunt." Xue Crimson really couldn't find a reason to refuse, so she had to agree.
Ordered his subordinates to set up the carriage, Bai Qi drove in person, and took Xue Crimson and Su Xiangyun out of the city, as soon as he got out of the city gate, Bai Qi saw Yun Lao standing on the side of the road waiting for him and Xue Crimson, stopped the carriage, Bai Qi jumped down and stepped forward and said: "Yun Lao, it's been a long time." ”
Yun Lao saw that Bai Qi just came out with two ladies, so he said with confidence: "Master Horse, I'll show you the way in front, follow up." After saying that, Yun Lao was not polite, jumped on the horse and walked forward, Bai Qi hurriedly got into the car and followed closely.
Although Bai Qi showed his sincerity with his actions, Yun Lao was still not at ease, and took Bai Qi and them around the city a few times, and after being completely sure that no one was following, he led Bai Qi and them towards the Nanshan Temple outside the city. For Yun Lao's carefulness, Bai Qi didn't pay attention to it at all, and if it was himself, he would do the same, so Bai Qi didn't say anything all the way, but just followed Yun Lao firmly. In fact, there is another point that Bai Qi doesn't know, just after Bai Qi and they left the city, Yun Lao still left people at the city gate, until they sent a signal to confirm that no one followed, and then took Bai Qi to see Li Liying and them.
After walking along the mountain road for a while, they soon saw the ten-mile stairs leading to Nanshan Temple, and at this time the carriage could not go up anymore, so the horses and vehicles were handed over to the teahouse at the foot of the mountain to take care of, and Bai Qi and they followed Yun Lao up the mountain on foot. Nanshan Temple was built in the previous week, has a history of hundreds of years, incense over the years, is also a great scenic spot in Jiezhou.
Walking up the bluestone paved stairs, the scenery along the way is very good, it is early summer, and the trees on both sides of the mountain road have long been green, but Bai Qi is not in the mood to enjoy the scenery at all.
Finally when the bell rang at noon in the temple, Bai Qi and the others came to Nanshan Temple, Bai Qi saw Li Liying who had been waiting anxiously at a glance, this woman who was invincible in front of him at the beginning, is now much haggard, all the way north. The dust along the way left a few shallow wrinkles on her face.
When the mother and daughter saw each other, they naturally hugged their heads and cried, and Bai Qi and Su Xiangyun were left aside. After crying for a while, Li Liying said to Bai Qi and Su Xiangyun very unceremoniously: "You go out first, my daughter and I have something to say in private." ”
"Auntie, since you are here, is there anything you can't say in front of us?" Su Xiangyun asked with a smile. Li Liying ignored what she didn't do to hit the smiling person, and snorted with a cold face: "Do you still know that I am your aunt?" Then please go out. ”
Bai Qi, who had never been able to speak, could only pull Su Xiangyun out with a wry smile.
"See the princess?" As soon as Bai Qi and the others came out, Yun Lao, who was waiting outside, greeted him and asked. Bai Qi nodded and replied. But in my heart, I was thinking about what to do with this matter.
"I'd like to hear what the colt is going to do?" Yun Lao stepped forward and asked. At this time, Bai Qi noticed that there were at least thirty or so guards in civilian clothes standing around him, and all his ways had been blocked.
Bai Qi sneered a few times, looked at the guards with disdain and said, "Yun Lao." Do you think these people will be useful to me? If I really want to leave, who can stop me? ”
"They can't stop you. But this one next to you. I'm absolutely sure I'm here to stay. Yun Lao's tone at this time was also full of gunpowder and naked threats, and before he finished speaking, the guards had already put their hands on the guys, and it seemed that if they didn't say a word, they would have to do it.
"Hmph, if you really dare to embarrass my wife. I promise that none of you will want to leave alive, including the princess and prince inside, I promise to do it. At this time, Bai Qi naturally couldn't show weakness, and immediately pushed back.
In fact, Yun Lao really didn't have a grasp of dealing with Bai Qi, and the purpose of doing this was nothing more than to take down Su Xiangyun, and when Li Liying negotiated with Bai Qi, he would take the initiative, but he didn't expect Bai Qi to eat this set at all, and his words were very hard.
"You want to use me to threaten your husband?" Su Xiangyun laughed as he spoke, gently holding Bai Qi's arm and laughing: "You also underestimate my husband too much, dare to threaten him on his territory, I really don't know whether to live or die." ”
Bai Qi didn't expect Su Xiangyun to say this, it was easy to make things stiff, Bai Qi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but at this time, Bai Qi couldn't say anything about Su Xiangyun, so he had to stand there steadily, always guarding against the sudden action of these guards.
As soon as Su Xiangyun said this, the old face of Yun, who was originally just pretending, couldn't pull it down a little, and all the grievances after the incident had nowhere to vent, and now they all came up all at once.
Yun Lao slowly raised his hand and said, "Since Madame has said so, the old man has to weigh your catties." ”
Bai Qi didn't expect that things would make a fuss to the point of making a move, but when the matter came, there was no room for retreat, so he had to stand forward and block Su Xiangyun from behind, preventing the guards from attacking Su Xiangyun first.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiangyun was not afraid at all, but instead stood forward, smiled at Bai Qiyi and said coldly to Yun Lao: "Do you want to do it?" Then I'll have to do it first. As soon as the words fell, Su Xiangyun shouted violently: "Do it." ”
As soon as Su Xiangyun finished speaking, Bai Qi showed a wry smile, and at the same time, the gate of Nanshan Temple was pushed open with a bang, and more than a hundred black-clothed people poured in outside, and at the same time, hundreds of people also came out of the walls around the temple, and surrounded more than thirty guards at once.
Of course, Bai Qi, who suddenly appeared, recognized that they were all killers carefully trained by Wu Ming, and more than a hundred of them were holding the latest five-repeat crossbows in their hands, and the crossbow arrows were glowing with blue light, indicating that they were quenched with poison.
"Bai Qi, you are so despicable!" Yun Lao shouted a little angrily.
"It's none of my husband's business, I arranged it all by myself, and my husband doesn't know about it at all. If you hadn't wanted to do it first, these people wouldn't have appeared today, but as long as you want to do anything bad to your husband, then I'll be sorry for you. ”
Surrounded by more than two hundred people and hundreds of crossbows, none of these guards dared to move, even Yun Lao did not dare to move, and it was not fun to face him with more than a dozen crossbows.
"Take it all for me." Su Xiangyun drank in a low voice, and the killers were about to make a move, Bai Qi shouted fiercely: "Stop it, it's okay, wait outside for me." Bai Qi was a little annoyed, a little dissatisfied with Su Xiangyun's approach, she was still here, when would it be her turn to speak.
"Husband, these people have evil intentions, and they can't be kept." Su Xiangyun was in a hurry, and wanted to persuade Bai Qi to follow his own wishes, take them down first, and get them back to Jiezhou together.
"I have my own measure, you don't care about this matter, take everyone out." Bai Qi said coldly. Su Xiangyun didn't dare to talk back anymore, and took a group of killers out of the temple in a huff.
"Xiangyun, this girl, has been careful from the beginning, plus the influence of his father, hey!" It was Li Liying who spoke, it seems that she saw everything in her eyes just now, and it is difficult to say how much of this sigh is in it.
Maybe it was Bai Qi's performance just now that won Li Liying's favor, and Li Liying would see Bai Qi's eyes much kinder. With the support of Xue Crimson, Li Liying came to Bai Qi and said: "The people of the end of the road, just ask for a place to live, can you meet my request?" ”
Speaking of which, Bai Qi has no good way to settle them now, if he follows Su Xiangyun's method, he will definitely be infamous in the future, Bai Qi decided not to say anything for the time being, and will talk about it after going back to discuss it with everyone.
"The scenery of Nanshan Temple is good, my mother-in-law will settle down here for the time being, the place in Jiezhou is not very peaceful, don't run around if you have nothing to do, the son-in-law will leave first." After Bai Qi finished speaking, he saluted Li Liying, and he didn't call Xue Crimson, he turned around and left, and at this time, the guards didn't dare to reach out to stop Bai Qi. What Bai Qi meant by this, how could Li Liying not understand, as long as they stayed in the temple honestly, Bai Qi could ensure their safety, but when they left Nanshan Temple, it was all difficult to say.
Xue Crimson didn't go with Bai Qi, she kept standing by her mother's side, maybe they still had something to say between their mother and daughter, maybe their fate with Bai Qi had come to an end. It all depends on Xue Crimson's attitude.
When Bai Qi walked out of the mountain gate, he found that Xu Yuyan was also outside, and Xie Dongshan came at the same time. Bai Qi smiled bitterly and said to everyone, "How did you come with me?" ”
Xu Yuyan stepped forward and replied with everyone: "Seventh brother, Mrs. told Mr. Xie that someone from the Xue family was coming, so I gave him a sachet and asked Mrs. to take it, so that we can also find you, right?" As for these brothers, I took your token to transfer, you won't blame me, right? ”
Or Xu Yuyan can speak, explain things clearly in a few words, and with a smile on her face, people are comfortable to look at, Bai Qi can't find a reason to get angry at all.
"How can I blame you, everyone has worked hard, let's go back together."
