Chapter 404: White Shadow Halfway

readx;

Dongfang Wenbai and Wen Tiren both wanted Zhu Qing to return to Beijing. www.biquge.info Dongfang Wenbai knew that only by returning to Beijing to face the saint would Zhu Qing have the opportunity to explain and clear himself, and Wen Tiren also knew that only when Zhu Qing returned to Beijing could he have a way to clean up Zhu Qing. But Wen Tiren had already started his methods before Zhu Qing returned to Beijing, and he asked Chongzhen to order Zhu Qing to return to the capital within one day, which was obviously a trumped-up charge. From Kaifeng to Beijing, even if you ride a fast horse, it will take more than half a day, not to mention that it takes longer to reach Kaifeng by the Holy Decree. Theoretically, this is simply an impossible task.

Even so, Suzaku still applied for the emperor's crown carrier pigeon to send a message to Zhu Qing. The crown pigeon flew out, but Suzaku and the others were still nervous, they didn't know if they could be in time, and they could only do their best to obey the destiny of heaven.

But no one in the capital knew that Zhu Qing was already on his way back to Beijing!

At noon, Zhu Qing received the crown carrier pigeon from the capital halfway. As soon as I read the letter, I realized that the emperor was going to urgently summon him to Beijing.

"Returning to Beijing in one day, isn't this bullying?" When he looked at the letter, he was upset for Zhu Qing.

Zhu Qing smiled slightly, "This is definitely not what the emperor meant, if I am not mistaken, it should be Wen Tiren's conspiracy, wanting to give Lao Tzu a trumped-up charge, Lao Tzu is not Yue Fei, hum!" Zhu Qing said, holding the letter tightly in his hand, glaring ahead, and shouting, "Full speed ahead!" ”

Although Zhu Qing knew that this was a conspiracy, he could not let this conspiracy succeed, and he led the baggage battalion to speed up. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Qing led the baggage battalion to the Beijing suburb store.

But when he walked into the wild store, the shopkeeper was the first to greet him, with a vigilant look on his face.

"General, you're finally here." The shopkeeper said cautiously. Zhu Qing glanced at the inn vigilantly.

"What's the situation?" Zhu Qing asked.

"There was a person in the store last night, like on the road, please don't leave, saying that you are waiting for someone here." As he spoke, the shopkeeper gestured to the back room.

Zhu Qing looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's finger, and sure enough, he saw a person sitting alone in the corner of the inn drinking tea alone. This person was dressed in a white robe and held a feather fan in his hand, and he looked very elegant from behind.

Zhu Qing said a lot, then smiled, and said to the shopkeeper, "Don't worry, he is really waiting for me, you ask Xiao Er to help me feed the chasing wind, I will have to hurry later." ”

"Yes, General." With Zhu Qing present, the shopkeeper was already much more relieved.

"Wait, arrange some food for the brothers in the baggage camp as soon as possible." Zhu Qing commanded.

"Yes!"

"Brother Shiqian, Gonggong Liu and Zu Dashou have bothered you to entertain, I'll go meet that old friend." Zhu Qing explained that during the game, he walked into the inn.

"General rest assured." During the game, he also glanced at the white-robed guest a few more times, he always felt that he seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he could only go to greet Liu Gonggong and Zu Dashou, two suspects who were also friends and enemies.

After Zhu Qing entered the door, he took a jar of Xinghua Village from the cupboard with the shopkeeper, took two empty bowls, and then walked towards the white-robed guest.

"It's lonely to drink tea alone, so it's better to have a drink with me." Zhu Qing came to the periphery, put down the two empty bowls, and said casually, he poured wine into the wine bowl as he spoke.

The White Shadow guest had long known that someone had walked in, but when he saw that it was Zhu Qing who appeared in front of him, he couldn't help but be taken aback, but his eyes were stunned for a moment.

"Come on! To Mr. White Shadow, whom we haven't seen for a long time. Zhu Qing put down the wine jar, sat opposite the white-robed guest Bai Ying, picked up the wine bowl, and smiled at Bai Ying.

Bai Ying also smiled faintly and picked up the wine bowl, "I rarely drink alcohol, and the sect leader tells us to drink less." But he still picked up the wine bowl and drank the wine in their respective wine bowls with Zhu Qing.

"You rarely come to my shop, do you? Last time, I heard Sect Master Xu say that something happened to you, and now it seems that the person who can kill Mr. White Shadow has not yet appeared, right? Zhu Qing quipped.

"Far away, close at hand." The white shadow also knew what to say.

"Hahaha, you're still so good at talking about cold humor, come, another bowl." Zhu Qinglang laughed.

Bai Ying dissuaded, "You should know that I didn't come to your store to drink." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and stopped the mouth of the bowl.

When Zhu Qing heard this, he paused for a moment, and then smiled again, "Hey, what's the matter with him, after three bowls, he will be happy." Zhu Qing said, then removed Bai Ying's hand and filled the wine bowl again.

Bai Ying was helpless, so he could only accompany Zhu Qing to do another bowl.

This White Shadow is none other than the second leader of the White Lotus Sect, Xu Hongfei's good helper, when the White Lotus Sect was still against the imperial court, Bai Ying also sneaked into the palace alone to assassinate, if it weren't for Zhu Qing's presence, I'm afraid he would have become famous with a sword. Later, Xu Hongfei felt more and more that Zhu Qing was reliable, and the anti-Ming actions of the White Lotus Sect gradually decreased, and even cleaned up the Japanese warships with the Jinyi Guard led by Zhu Qing on the coast of Shandong, that is, since then, the unruly White Shadow gradually admired Zhu Qing, and today, the two sides have tended to cooperate, although Zhu Qing has not reported this matter to the imperial court, but the Jinyi Sect has stopped attacking the White Lotus Sect, and the White Lotus Sect has also changed from anti-Ming activities to assisting Zhu Qing to carry out land reform and other matters. Some time ago, the White Lotus Sect, which originally echoed the Chuang army, changed its position and provided a fire team for Kaifeng City when the Chuang army was besieging Kaifeng City!

Zhu Qing had already sent Hei Sha to Shandong to discuss further cooperation with Xu Hongfei, and now that Bai Ying suddenly appeared in the suburbs of Beijing, he must have something to say.

But Zhu Qing kept persuading them to drink, just because Zhu Qing found that there were unfamiliar eyes watching them in the inn, and the game happened to lead Gonggong Liu, Zu Dashou and others into the inn to settle down on the second floor. Apparently not the best of times.

Under Zhu Qing's hint, Bai Ying also found out about the situation, so he slowly ate wine with Zhu Qing.

The five people at the adjacent table looked at Bai Ying like a white-faced scholar, and saw that Zhu Qing was also clear-eyed, presumably it was the young master of a family, so they made up their minds.

"Shopkeeper, give us a jar of apricot blossom village." A man at the next table shouted.

"A few guest officers are really embarrassed, this store only launches one jar of Xinghua Village every day, and it has just been taken by those two guest officers, why don't I give a few other wines?" The shopkeeper's answer.

"Don't drink any other wine, my brothers will drink Xinghua Village!" Sure enough, the five of them began to stir up trouble, shouting louder and louder one by one.

"This ......," the shopkeeper glanced at Zhu Qing with embarrassment.

Zhu Qing smiled slightly and said to the next table, "This brother, when you go out, you are friends, if you don't dislike it, I still have half a jar of wine for you, why bother with the shopkeeper?" Zhu Qing said, then stood up, grabbed the wine jar and walked over.

"Let's try half a bowl first." One of them said arrogantly, so he asked Zhu Qing to pour wine.

When the other brocade guards in the inn saw it, they all wanted to go up and beat these people, but they were stopped by the shopkeeper, Zhu Qing must have his reason to take action personally, and the shopkeeper can't let his subordinates add to the chaos.

Zhu Qing listened to this person's tone, and then looked at his poor expression, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help it, smiled slightly and nodded to pour him wine.

said that it was to find fault, of course, it would make small moves. Just as Zhu Qing was pouring the wine, the man deliberately moved his arm, just touched the wine bowl, and the wine spilled on his hand.

"Where is his grandmother's? You got dirty, you know? The man shouted at the first opportunity.

"I'm sorry I missed it." Zhu Qing pretended to apologize.

"Soiled my eldest brother's clothes, just say I'm sorry?" The other man was afraid of the table.

"That'...... What do those big brothers think? Zhu Qing pretended to be scared.

"What's going on? Money! ”

"That's right! Money! ”

"Lao Tzu sees the two of you dressed like this, it must be either a son or a young master, not much, one hundred and eighty taels is just a matter of that." The eldest brother saw that Zhu Qing and Bai Ying didn't dare to make a sound, and said proudly.

"What if I don't give it?" Zhu Qing asked softly.

"Don't give? Brothers on the ......"

Before anyone could stand up, Zhu Qing and Bai Ying had already joined forces to press him to his seat.

"Spare your life, a good man spare your life, the small one has eyes and no beads." After a while, the sound of pleading turned into a cry of pleading.

Zhu Qing and Bai Ying locked the five people firmly in their seats, wanting to move but unable to get there.

Zhu Qing lifted the cloak, and the waist card of the brocade guard was revealed, and the eldest brother who took the lead was shocked when he saw it, "Jin...... Jinyi ......"

"Get out!" Zhu Qing kicked violently and pushed the three of his men out.

With a flick of the white shadow's hand, an iron fan slashed out, leaving two wounds on two of them before letting go.

The five people knew that it was Jinyiwei, and they all staggered and fled, snatching the door. Zhu Qing glanced at the shopkeeper, "Follow that way." ”

"Yes, General!"

"You're still amazing, I've been here for a while and I haven't noticed that these people are wrong, you can see it as soon as you enter the door." After beating away those little minions, Bai Ying smiled at Zhu Qing.

"It's not that you didn't find out, it's that you want to see Jinyiwei's jokes. How's it going, I'm okay as a store manager, right? Zhu Qingying said with a smile.

"Quite fine."

"Then you can tell me now that you're not here for tea and drink, right?" Zhu Qingyi pointed out.

Bai Ying nodded, and swept around vigilantly before stretching his head slightly, "It has been arranged, according to the drawings you gave and the help of Lord Heisha, the project is almost completed, and it will be available in the near future." ”

When Zhu Qing heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he excitedly took the wine jar and filled the wine bowl of the two!

"Come on! God help me! This cup is for you! Zhu Qing said excitedly.

"The sect leader asked me to go there in person, see if you have any ideas, I'll go back and arrange it immediately." White Shadow drank and continued.

"There are no changes to the project for the time being. It's just that you can't go back yet. Zhu Qing said to Bai Ying.

"Oh? Why? White Shadow wondered.

Zhu Qing sighed and said, "I think you have also heard that the imperial court has not been peaceful recently, and someone wants to deal with me, and I am in a little trouble." Later, I will rush to the capital to face the saints, but this time I brought a baggage battalion with me, and they will not be able to follow me into the capital. I plan to leave one person in charge here, and I was going to stay with Shiqian brothers, but there are some troubles in the palace. Can you help me with a town? ”

"Can you trust me?" White Shadow asked.

"I can trust you to entrust such a big siege, how can I not believe it? It's just that these people are all thorns in the camp, you need to show them some skills, so that they don't have trouble for you. I'll keep most of the Pioneer Camp for you, and besides, this is my shop, you should know. Zhu Qing said, smiling at Bai Ying.

"Isn't it just a trick for you? Say. Then I'll rub a few more jugs of wine in your shop. White Shadow readily agreed.

"Good! That's it, come! Do it first! Thank you! Zhu Qing said, and took the lead in taking a bowl of wine.

"Don't die in the capital, that won't be interesting." Bai Ying smiled coldly and took a sip of wine.

The two chatted for a while, and Zhu Qing saw that it was almost an hour, so he called Sai Shiqian to bring Liu Gonggong and Zu Dashou down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor urgently summoned me to Beijing, and I and Brother Shiqian took the first step, and stayed in Yedian to stand by. Ten of you will come with me into Beijing. ”

"Yes! Checkmate! ”

"By the way, when I'm away, you can ask my friend, Mr. White Shadow." Zhu Qing said, stepped on the war horse, pointed to the door of the inn, and the white shadow slowly walked out.

As soon as everyone saw that it was just a white-faced scholar, they began to discuss.

"This is my token, and those who violate the order will be punished according to the law!" Zhu Qing said, with a wave of his cloak and a flick of his hand, the token flew towards the white shadow with a whoosh.

The white shadow was calm, and when the token approached, he suddenly saw the white shadow in his hand for a while, and an iron fan drew a white light, and a rotating body connected the galloping token to the fan steadily, and his expression did not change.

"Wow......"

Seeing that everyone was impressed by Bai Ying, Zhu Qing smiled at the corner of his mouth, and with a "driving" sound, he followed the game to escort Gonggong Liu, Zu Dashou and others to Beijing.
