Chapter 3: Fuyang Bai Family (2)
It is said that after Chuan Bao entered the Bai Mansion with Bai Yu, he did not go to the banquet immediately with Bai Yu, but asked Bai Yu to lead the way for himself, came to the Bai family, and thanked each other heavily. Chuan Bao saw that the Bai family did not despise because of their identity, and had a good impression of the Bai family, and they talked very happily at the moment, and when they were asked why they knew the third son Bai Yu, they followed Bai Yu's instructions on the road, and Bai Yu, who was standing on the side, listened to his heart beating, although some of the preface did not match the afterword, and under Chuan Bao's deliberate cover-up, he also concealed the drunken flirting with the girl in the past. Looking at Bai Yu who was frowning at him, Chuan Bao had to smile bitterly in his heart, this disciple of the family is not bad, seeing that Bai Yu has forgotten about his fat beating him, this little favor of covering up the ugly thing will help.
The housewife of the Bai family, who had been smiling and talking little on the side, suddenly asked, "Looking at the age of Yan Gongzi, it seems to be similar to my grandson Yu'er, I don't know if Yan Gongzi is willing to tell the old body", Chuan Bao looked at the kind Bai family's housewife, and gradually felt close, no wonder, since he was a child, he was displaced, and he was treated as a guest today, and he was a little overwhelmed, scratching the back of his head, "Where is the housewife, how can I not want to tell you" Chuan Bao recalled the language of Wen Crepe that he had secretly heard in the teaching workshop before, "I just don't remember it... ”
When Bai Yu heard this, he stepped forward, "Grandmother, Yu'er thinks" Bai Yu suddenly smiled slyly at Chong Chuanbao, "Grandson is obviously a few years older than Yan Gongzi, he should be younger than his grandson, Sun Er thought, the eldest brother and the second brother usually focus on the ancestral business, and they can't accompany their grandchildren, and their grandchildren are usually accompanied by people when they practice, since Yan Gongzi is a martial artist, and he has no fixed place, so he wants his grandmother to be in charge, and his grandson and Yan Gongzi are brothers with different surnames, and Brother Yan is alone, so that Yan Gongzi can live in our Baifu and never have a fixed place to live, Second, my grandson also has a partner who can learn and communicate, and third, at the end of this year..."
When Chuan Bao heard it, he was busy refusing, after all, he was used to being at ease for eight years, and on the first day of his visit, he was going to worship his brother with someone, he didn't know much about Bai Yu, and was about to speak, but he heard the mother of the Bai family laughing happily a few times, interrupted Bai Yu's words, and said, "Please forgive me Gongzi Yan, my grandson has been spoiled by his old body since he was a child, and he never knows how to ask other people's thoughts." But since Yan Gongzi is alone, he might as well live in Baifu."
"I'm alone, I'm already used to it" Chuan Bao could hear that the Bai family's housewife was sincere, but she didn't want to make trouble with others, "Thank you for the concern of the predecessors of the Bai family today" immediately arched his hand, turned around and walked out of the court.
"Brother Yan! Please stay! Bai Yu hurriedly followed out a few steps, stretched out his hand and patted Chuan Bao's shoulder, he had already carried three points of internal force, Chuan Bao, who had been adrift for many years, instinctively dodged a shot, and made a backhand of Yun Gong, both of them were shocked by the other party's internal force and took a few steps back, fortunately, both of them had no malicious intentions, Bai Yu's face was several times, as if he had thought for a long time, before he said, "Brother Yan, I want to ask you for a favor, please listen to me, just now in front of the master's mother, I didn't have time to say" Chuan Bao looked at Bai Yu with an anxious face, and thought, if you can't leave at this time, you might as well listen" What Brother Bai is referring to is what you just said at the end of the year..."
"Shhh, this matter is big, please come with me" Bai Yu saw that Chuan Bao meant to listen, made a silent gesture, and mysteriously led Chuan Bao to his study.
・・・・・・
"The end-of-year trial? What is this" In the quiet study, there were bursts of human voices, and there was no doubt that they were Chuan Bao and Bai Yu.
"Brother Yan knows" Bai Yu lowered his voice mysteriously, "The war in the north has started, the rebels captured Luoyang a month ago, and the property accumulated in the eastern capital for thousands of years was looted by the thieves and rebels, and many treasures flowed into the people. Among them, there are many royal hundred-year-old treasures" Speaking of this, Bai Yu was already excited, and Chuan Bao looked at him inexplicably: "So what? After all, in his opinion, money and treasures are worthless, even harmful, and can only be reluctantly used as wine.
"Brother Yan doesn't know, when I was Emperor Taizong, I built the Lingyan Pavilion, which contains twenty-four heroes and maps," "I know" Chuan Bao seemed to be a little helpless, but he didn't know what kind of medicine this Bai Yu sold in the gourd, so he could only continue to listen, Bai Yu hurriedly said, "Brother Yan, don't worry, you definitely don't know below, this Your Excellency Lingyan, Emperor Taizong also secretly built another place, which is only known to members of the imperial family and a very small number of ministers involved in this matter for generations, called the Artifact Pavilion, which specializes in collecting the treasure armor of the world's divine soldiers, only during the reign of Taizong, the treasure house has been expanded three times!" It can be seen that there are so many treasures inside" Saying this, Bai Yu's eyes flickered, Chuan Bao frowned, and thought in his heart, how could this gaze be somewhat similar to the gaze he teased the girl that day, but the content behind it, but Chuan Bao, who listened to it, was dumbfounded.
"My ancestor of the Bai family is actually a minister who serves Emperor Taizong, a very small number of people who know such secrets, and after Emperor Taizong died, the ministers who knew the secret were supposed to accompany the burial, but how could the ancestors stop there, they bought the craftsmen who built the mausoleum, got an escape drawing, and on the day of the burial, after the tomb door was closed, they escaped along the drawings and secretly came to Yuhang"
"Wait," Chuan Bao stopped Bai Yu, "It's true that I've heard this for the first time, but what does this have to do with the end-of-year trial?" ”
Bai Yu said, "Brother Yan, don't worry, and listen to me, after my Bai family ancestor came to Yuhang, he quietly branched out, and gradually divided into multiple clans, Qiantang, Yanguan, Fuyang, Xincheng, Yuhang, Lin'an, Yuqian, Tangshan, the eight counties have our Bai family's lineage" Speaking of this, Bai Yu looked proud, but when he saw that Chuan Bao had a cold face, he knew that he had distanced himself
"Ahem, the war broke out a month ago, and the patriarch of Yuhang heard that the thieves had captured Luoyang, and thought that such treasures falling into the hands of thieves would be a disaster to the country and the people, so he sent people to secretly sneak back to the Eastern Capital, and took advantage of the chaos to transport many divine weapons from the underground treasure house and secretly keep them somewhere in Yuhang, and one is that the number is huge and easy to walk, and the other is that if the war burns to Yuhang, the patriarch does not dare to guarantee that the treasures will not be robbed, so a few days ago, he launched a secret order to all the Bai family lines in Jiangnan Province to disperse these divine weapons and armor to the hands of various clans, In view of the fact that some clans do not have the ability to protect these treasures, and there are many branches of the Che family, it is difficult to distribute them for a while, so the clan decided to use the method of martial arts trials to let the clan decide the whereabouts of these treasures. This is the end-of-year trial."
"I see" Hearing this, Chuan Bao seemed to have an understanding, and then asked, "But, what does Brother Bai mean by keeping me?" Bai Yu smiled bitterly, "It's not a secret, the Bai clan I belong to, the Bai family in Fuyang, does not advocate martial arts, the three sons in the family, the eldest brother and the second brother are all good politicians in business, but they are not good at dancing guns and sticks, only below, I like this way of martial arts" Speaking of this, Bai Yu seemed to be a little stunned, and then said, "It is agreed in the clan that at least three people must go to the competition, but Brother Yan also saw it, I am alone, how to participate in the trial?" That's why I want to keep Brother Yan..."
Chuan Bao finally understood why Bai Yu was so polite when he saw him, and why the Bai family's housewife was unwilling to let Bai Yu tell about the year-end trial in the court. This matter is so big that it makes Chuan Bao a little embarrassed for a while. "Brother Bai, even if I promise to help you, I'm not from the Bai clan, how did I go?"
"That's why I asked the mistress to let us become brothers of the opposite sex," Bai Yu seemed a little anxious when he heard this, "There is no clear rule in the clan that it must be a person with the blood of the Bai family, so please also ask Brother Yan to help!" Saying this, Bai Yu actually clenched his fists and bowed down, which made Chuan Bao a little overwhelmed.
・・・・・・
"Young Master Yan, since you are willing to stay, presumably, my grandson has already told you about the end-of-year trial" The mother of the Bai family was still kind, looking at Chuan Bao, who was standing silently in the court, "Young Master Yan, this year-end trial is related to the ownership of the treasure, but although these divine weapons and armor are in the hands of the Bai family, they are not the things of the Bai family, but if they are allowed to steal the country and rebels, it will be a disaster to the world, and the common people will be restless, and Yan Gongzi can understand the stakes." ”
"I understand" Chuan Bao pondered what the Bai family's housewife said, and after a while, replied solemnly
A few days later, in the early morning, the Bai family got busy early, and in the backyard where the begonias bloomed in all seasons, they set up incense candles and sacrificed animals, and two apricot yellow futons. Surrounded by everyone in the Bai family, Chuanbao, who was dressed in white, knelt on the ground with Bai Yu and bowed solemnly. Not far away, the housewife of the Bai family looked at the calm and solemn Chuanbao, and seemed to be thinking deeply.
After three bows, Bai Yu suddenly stood up, lowered his head and looked at Chuan Bao, who was still serious: "Fortunately, Doctor Ji in the house will touch the bones to check the year, Brother Yan, you are not yet weak, so let me say that Brother Sheng will not suffer!" Come and call and listen, haha" Chuan Bao heard this, and then said disapprovingly, "Hmph, who is big and who is small, compare and say, look at the move!" At that moment, he made a false move, as if the actual palm shadow grabbed Bai Yu's legs.
"Brother Yan, you are so yin!" Bai Yu hurriedly moved his body, but he dodged Chuan Bao's grasp, and with a backhand blow with a smile, he slapped Chuan Bao's forehead......

The two of them beckoned to block, stirring the begonia petals scattered and fluttering all over the garden, a woman in palace dress who was sitting quietly in the pavilion in the distance, at this time also leaned weakly on the edge of the pavilion, and was stunned for a while, and a maid behind him came forward with a small jade bowl "Begonia girl, the medicine of Chenshi is decoctioned" The palace woman reluctantly retracted her gaze and looked at the small bowl in the hand of the maid, the medicine taken on time at the twelve o'clock exudes an intoxicating fragrance, the same color as amber, people can't help but take a sip, but the palace woman hesitates, Finally, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he picked up the small bowl and drank it all.
The maid seemed to be a little unbearable, but she still watched the palace woman finish the medicine, and then withdrew from the pavilion with a small bowl.
The woman in the palace costume carried her internal strength lightly, allowing the medicinal power to penetrate nearly her limbs, and after a period of numbness, she felt that her hands and feet finally had some strength. Then he moved lightly and walked towards the two people who were competing in the backyard.
The housewife of the Bai family looked at the woman in the palace from a distance, as if she was a little distressed and a little helpless, and waved her hand to everyone in the Bai family in the garden. For a while, only Bai Yu, Chuan Bao, and a palace woman named Begonia were left in the courtyard.
If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next time.
