Li Tong was slightly stunned, and then quickly reacted and grabbed Bai Li Ye's arm.

"I'll start with that."

"Okay, Madame, first." Bai Li Ye didn't want to rob it, so he took a step back, anyway, it's not a big deal, and it's not a big deal to talk about it later.

Li Tong sat up straight, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw that the door was still open, and hurriedly walked over to close the door carefully, and glanced out several times before closing it.

Seeing her so cautious, Baili Ye also became serious.

"Today I'm going to see the little emperor."

Bai Li Ye's expression suddenly became serious.

"What is he looking for you for?"

"He wants you to lead a guard of the Imperial City."

Bai Li Ye frowned slightly, and immediately thought of the key: "The four branches of the Imperial City Guard are all his people, what soldiers did he let me lead?" Do you want to pick someone from the four to build another one? ”

Li Tong blinked, and there seemed to be a little appreciation in his eyes.

Bai Li Ye gasped: "Isn't this making me an enemy?" What else did he say? ”

"It is said that there are spies in the imperial city guards, and you are asked to lead the troops in order to secretly help him investigate."

"Fart!" Bai Li Ye only felt that the more he listened, the more outrageous it became, and he spat on the ground very unvividly: "Who dares to put someone in the imperial city guard?" What is the difference between this and sending someone's head directly to Ji Tunshan's hands? ”

Li Tong shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.

And Bai Li Ye immediately thought of Huo Tong.

Worst!

At the beginning, because Li Tong valued Huo Tong, Bai Li Ye originally wanted to put it in his hands, but Huo Tong had relatives, and he was looking for the one who was in a precarious state, and it was not easy to pull people in.

Now that I look closely, isn't this taking the initiative to give people a handle?

Spies?

Isn't Huo Tong a ready-made candidate?

Now that he has become close to the big girl in front of the general's wife, his identity is simply certain.

A sticky cold sweat broke out of Bai Liye's palm out of thin air, shook his palm, and then spread it out again, wiping it hard in his sleeve.

He couldn't take this errand, but he had to take it again.

"What should I do?" Li Tong was very worried.

"I can only come to cover the water and earth, and tomorrow when I go to court, he will probably tell me that he is not asking you to persuade me, but wants to give me a preventive injection through you, so as not to make a fool of me in the court tomorrow."

Li Tong hissed: "He is quite polite, and he knows to inform you in advance." ”

Bai Li Ye gritted his teeth, this is the bad part, the monarch and the minister, the monarch is the first, even if he is not happy, he has to respond.

"By the way, what are you going to tell me?"

Bai Li Ye came back to his senses, and Deng Shi felt that the matter he was going to tell her was simply insignificant, but seeing that Li Tong was so curious, he still opened his mouth.

"It's Zhou Lan."

"What's wrong with Sister Zhou?"

"She wrote a few days ago, saying that she had found a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and planned to live a secluded life, so let's not worry."

"Seclusion?"

Li Tong couldn't believe it when she heard these two words in her ears, if it weren't for Bai Li Ye holding her hand, she would even think that she was hallucinating and hallucinating.

In Li Tong's mind, a bright person like Zhou Lan would never go to such a sparsely populated or even inaccessible place, let alone live alone.

She should go to those bustling and noisy cities, full of tourists, business travelers, can meet a few friends who can talk to anytime and anywhere, can meet the kind of beautiful little brother she likes anytime and anywhere, and maybe meet a lover who is willing to spend her life with her.

Instead of living in a place where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't, you have to wait for seventeen or eighteen years for even an affair.

But she wrote.

Bai Li Ye said that she had already chosen a place, and her tone was resolute and serious, and she had made a decision.

Li Tong scratched his head, still not quite convinced.

"We gave her so much money and she ran away to seclusion?"

Bai Li Ye smiled: "Maybe she wants to toss a luxury mansion in the mountains?" ”

Li Tong said "ah": "Also, many rich people who are used to living in the city like to go to the countryside to find land to build a house, and the beautiful name is to spend their old age in peace, in fact, the environment in the countryside is better than that in the city, which is suitable for the elderly." ”

"Yes, Madame is right."

Bai Li Ye had no position.

Li Tong glanced at him, Zhou Lan had not heard from him since he left, and now he had sent them the first letter to report his safety, Li Tong guessed that this was probably the last letter.

"Forget it, it's good if she's happy." Li Tong sighed and asked again, "You didn't send someone to find her, did you?" ”

"Nope."

"That's good."

"She wrote just to reassure you, not to reassure me."

As soon as he heard this, Li Tong suddenly felt that his status was really higher than Bai Li Ye, and there was a trace of pride in his eyes.

"You can't take this job?"

Bai Li Ye didn't react for a while, and only after looking at Li Tong did he remember what Bai Li Xian asked her to say.

"I'm a courtier, but there's no reason not to accept it."

"That's right, then you have to be careful, I don't think that Ji Tunshan is a good person."

Bai Li Ye smiled and said nothing.

Although it is a hostile position, Ji Tunshan is upright and upright, and he only has the emperor in his heart, but the lives in his hands are all damned people.

"The emperor means to let you pick another person from the four imperial city guards, which is obviously asking them to stumble on you."

"Don't worry, it's just training."

Li Tong wanted to speak and stopped, Bai Li Ye understood her thoughts, she couldn't pick Huo Tong, and even if necessary, she had to break off her relationship with Huo Tong.

But even so, wouldn't they be suspicious of him and Huo Tong?

Bai Li Ye clenched his slightly cool palm, but in the end he still involved irrelevant people.

The next day, above the court, Baili Xian really opened his mouth to mention this matter.

In this regard, Li Xiang still has a face that sees through everything, and Li Yinzhi's eyes flashed with banter and surprise as usual

, and the rest of the people whispered, but what was surprising was that Liu Xing's gang didn't have a rebuttal opinion, and didn't say a word as if they were dumb.

Although Bai Li Ye was mentally prepared, he was still very reluctant, and he turned his head and went on an errand.

After leaving the court, Bai Li Ye stood at the door of the hall and didn't move for a while, taking a few deep breaths until Liu Xing and Qiu Zhongxiao passed by him.

Both of them looked at him tacitly and walked away.

Bai Li Ye narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Don't speak, pretend to be cold?" ”

Qiu Zhongxiao almost stumbled under his feet, but fortunately, there was still a willow line standing beside him, and he stretched out his hand to take it, barely losing face in front of the ministers.

However, the three of them didn't have much friendship, and Qiu Zhongxiao's position was unclear or dark, after listening to Bai Li Ye say this, he turned around and smiled at him, Bai Li Ye rolled his eyes on the spot, and performed disdainfully.

Qiu Zhongxiao waved his fist, and Liu Xing beside him had already raised his feet and was ready to leave.

Li Yinzhi talked to Li Xiang for a while, and sure enough, he came to Baili Ye to hook his shoulders.

"Eh, brother-in-law......"

Baili Ye's eyes are about to roll to the sky.

"Why did the emperor suddenly let you lead an imperial city guard?"

"You want to know?"

"Uh-huh."

Bai Li Ye pulled away a smile expressionlessly: "I want to know too." ”

"There's a problem."

"Three-year-old children know that there is a problem, do you still need to say it?"

Li Yinzhi rubbed his chin, thoughtfully, looked Bai Li Ye up and down, and noticed the direction he was heading: "This is going to the Imperial City Guard?" ”

"Of course, I am a good courtier who only obeys the emperor."

After Bai Li Ye put gold on himself very shamelessly, Li Yinzhi, who had goosebumps on the spot, went straight to Ji Tunshan for trouble, ah, no, it was to arrange work.

Ji Tunshan got the news early in the morning, and he didn't even go to the inspection, he sat in the Imperial City Guards, and there were still deputy commanders in charge of the four Imperial City Guards standing beside him, waiting for Bai Li Ye to come to the door, but he waited left and right for half an hour before he saw Bai Li Ye's figure swaggering at the door.

No, he wondered, it only takes a cup of tea to go from the imperial palace to the imperial city guard, did he go back to the general's mansion for a meal in half an hour?

Yo, I also changed my court clothes.

Sure enough, I went back to the General's Mansion.

Ji Tunshan gritted his teeth in anger, and when he faced Bai Li Ye, he didn't even have to change his face.

"The general inevitably doesn't take the emperor's words too seriously, why is it so slow?" Ji Tunshan was very faceless and asked sharply.

Bai Liye's face was as thick as a city wall, and he said disapprerovitically: "Madam has an order, and you must go back to the house to report before you can go out." ”

Ji Tunshan: "? ”

Four Deputy Commanders: "?? ”

Your mother!

It's amazing to have a daughter-in-law!

Bai Li Ye smiled, yes, it is great to have a daughter-in-law, I have no common topic with you single dogs.

"General, how can you be afraid of an eight-foot man?" One of the deputy commanders said in disgust.

Bai Li Ye spread his shoulders: "What do you mean to be afraid of guilt?" If you really love someone, you will naturally put her first, but you will go back to see her first after going down to court, such a trivial matter, if I can't do it, I am not worthy of being called an eight-foot man. ”

Seeing what the deputy commander wanted to say, Bai Li Ye said again: "Alas, I forgot that you don't have a daughter-in-law yet, and you don't understand what I told you." ”

Ji Tunshan: "? ”

Four Deputy Commanders: "? ”

Your mother!

"Go back, when I'm free, I'll ask my wife to hold a poetry party and a tea banquet or something, and invite all the ladies and ladies in Yicheng to come and look at each other for you, how about it?"

One of the deputy commanders' eyes suddenly lit up: "Ah, how embarrassing this is......"

The other deputy commander immediately smiled and continued the conversation: "Then thank you general!" ”

Ji Tunshan: "......"

Damn, grievances, I want it too, but I can't say it.

Gan!

The stagnant atmosphere eased for a while, Bai Li Ye looked at Ji Tongshan, who was pale, and said with a fist: "In this way, please also ask Commander Ji and the deputy commanders to select some useful talents for this general, and please also explain in detail the rules in the Imperial City Guard." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

"Please take the general's seat, here is our roster, in view of the fact that the general does not know much about the imperial city guard, so we will pick the candidates, and then send them to the general for a look, if the general has something unpleasant, let's discuss it."

Bai Li Ye naturally nodded yes.
