Chapter 140: The Humble Man
When they returned to the cave, they took some more counsel before they were ready to rest and continue their search for the morrow. If you don't find out the specific whereabouts of Madame Bai, you won't believe anyone's words.
"Mother! Woooooo ......" Bai Yun cried quietly when he learned that he had not found his mother and brother.
"Don't cry! Don't cry! Didn't they say it? The people of the cheetah team said, your mother is in the Qi Palace, enjoying the treatment of the princess! The maid persuaded.
But! After listening to everyone's words, the maid didn't believe it either. persuaded Bai Yun on his lips, but he couldn't help sobbing.
"Mother! Woooooo ......" Seeing that the maid herself didn't believe it and was crying, Bai Yun continued to cry.
"What is a princess ceremony? It's a princess-like treat! Seeing that Baiyun continued to cry, the maid forcibly endured her sadness and persuaded again.
"Who is the princess? The princess is the daughter of the king's family, you know? The king's son is called Gongzi! Do you know that the son of the Son of Heaven is called a prince? The daughter of the Son of Heaven is also called a princess! You know what? One can imagine: how favored is it to be a princess? The treatment of the princess ceremony is to treat your mother as a princess! You know what? ……”
"I don't have a mother anymore! Woooooo ......," Bai Yun cried.
I thought: My mother entered the Qi Palace and enjoyed the princess ceremony, but I am afraid that I will never come back.
"You still have a father! Your father is a white official! He'll come to save your mother! Woo-woo-woo...... "Thinking of that terrible consequence, the maid began to cry again.
"Don't cry!" The unicorn White Horn walked over and commanded in a deep voice.
"Woooooooooooo ……”
"Woooooooooooo ……”
Bai Yun and the maid couldn't help it, but they still cried quietly.
Bai Jiao stood there for a while, heard the cries of the two of them quiet, and then left.
The next day, before dawn, the people came out of the cave and came down the mountain.
When I was in Linzi City yesterday, everyone was surrounded by the Cheetah team. Visible! Their whereabouts in Linzi City have long been exposed to the eyelids of the Cheetah Team.
So! I had to be careful lest the Cheetah team touch this side of the cave and end the secret stronghold.
Lin Yi also got up early, packed up, and prepared to leave for Zhongshan Kingdom to find his brother-in-law Bai Gui. After breakfast, seeing that the time was almost up, he went out in a carriage. Didn't go in the direction of the north gate, but went to the Qi Palace.
Last night, he was so anxious that he didn't sleep for half the night. Later, because I was too tired and in pain, I fell asleep in a daze. He is incompetent though, or rather! In the face of the Cheetah team and Qi Jun, he was very powerless and helpless. But his feelings for his sister are true!
After all! He was brought up by his sister! When he was a child, his father and mother were busy with business, so they handed him over to his sister. My sister let him everywhere and got used to her, so that he could develop his current virtue. So! He still has feelings for his sister.
For the brother-in-law Bai Guanren! It may be due to age, there is a generation gap, and it is not very harmonious. The more his brother-in-law treats him well, the more rebellious he becomes. In fact! He didn't have to go against his brother-in-law. But! Every time he faced it, he couldn't help but feel like that.
When he arrived at the Qi Palace, he was naturally stopped by the guards guarding the door. After explaining the situation, the guards went in to report. When the guards came out, they brought Bai Feng in their arms.
"Uncle! Uncle! When Bai Feng saw his uncle, he shouted a little proudly.
"Where's your mother? Doll! Woooooo ...... "After seeing his nephew, Lin Yi completely believed the words of Bai Jiao and the doctor.
Seeing that my nephew didn't seem to have anything wrong, I was relieved.
"My mother is putting on makeup! Do you still want to wear a princess hat? My mother said! It's a princess makeup! ……”
"Didn't your mother say anything?" Lin Yi asked.
Bai Feng shook his head.
"The Lord has spoken! Everything is fine with your sister! You can go with confidence! Come on! If you miss the Lord's business, you know! The guard stepped forward, picked Bai Feng up, and said to Linyi.
"I'm leaving! I'm leaving! I'll go right away! Whining! Seeing that the guards were in a hurry, Lin Yi had to agree repeatedly. His bones were softened before the king's force.
"Uncle! Uncle! Woo woo woo ...... "Bai Feng couldn't help crying when he saw his uncle's pitiful appearance. At this time, he! It's just as powerless, and it's just as carried by the guards and left.
"What are you crying about?" The guard whispered. "How did your mother teach you?"
Under the guard's shouting and glaring, Bai Feng had to stop crying and obediently obey.
In this deep palace compound, although it has not been a long time, he has already seen the superiority of the powerful and the pity of the lowly. The powerful can do everything, and the humble can be beaten, scolded or even killed at any time.
In the middle of the night last night, he saw with his own eyes a servant girl on duty at night because she was dozing off by the door frame, and she did not wake up when the guards came to check, and she was beaten to death.
"Is there such a night watch as you?"
"Damn it! Woooooo ……”
"Don't cry!"
“……”
"Is there such a night watch as you?"
"Damn it! Woooooo ......" the maidservant agreed, and then couldn't help crying again.
In fact! She's not admitting her mistake and saying "damn the slave", but! Dozing off while on duty is a capital offense. So! By the time she said this, she had already thought about what the outcome would be. That is: die! So! She couldn't help but cry.
To know! She was only thirteen years old and was only beginning to develop into an adult. The good life on earth has not yet begun, and it is over.
When her family sent her to the palace to be a maidservant, she even fantasized that one day she would be favored by the king or hereditary nobles because of her beauty, and then! The ugly duckling turned into a white swan and counterattacked to become a nobleman......
In order to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, he beat this maid who was not yet an adult to death in front of many maids on duty at night. And then! Packed into a garbage basket, he was carried out by two guards.
Thinking of such a cruel scene, no matter how pampered Bai Feng was, he was scared and sensible.
When the unicorn Baijiao and the others hurried to Linyi's house, Linyi had already gone to Qi Palace. By the time they arrived at the gate of Qi Palace, Lin Yi had already left and was on his way to Zhao State.
After inquiring, they already knew that Madam Bai and Bai Feng's mother and son were really in the Qi Palace. And! It's really good. At least! No problem for the time being. So! It's also reassuring.
"You're still going according to the original plan, I'm going back! I'll have to go back and tell the white officials about the situation here, so that there is no foolproof solution. The unicorn felt that it was useless for him to stay here any longer, so he took his leave of Jiang's guards.
"Brother Bai, take care!"
"Brother Bai has seen Bai Guanren, you must tell Bai Guanren that we all miss him!"
"Don't worry! We'll do our best! ”
"We are willing to trade our lives for our lives and do our best! Isn't it? Alas! "Thinking about Jiang's escape, everyone still blames themselves.
"As long as Madam Bai and Bai Feng come out, we will immediately take them out of Qi Country and go to Zhao State, so that their sister and brother will completely cut off contact."
