Chapter 190: The world is unpredictable
I thought that I would just pull a string by myself, and the two would just meet and get to know each other, and it would be up to them whether there was fate or not, who knew that Bai Jintang was in such a hurry to marry his daughter-in-law?
"What did you say that girl's name was?"
Bai Jinsheng's expression paused slightly, and his face turned back again, and his face, which was five points similar to Bai Jinchen, looked extremely kind.
"White ...... Crystals! ”
Nan Jinyu didn't understand what his reaction was, but did he know him? But Bai Jing clearly doesn't know him!
If it weren't for the girl's temperament, although Bai Jinsheng's appearance would not be famous, she would definitely be among the top beautiful men, how could she be easily ignored?
"Hmm, the Bai family's distant relative Bai Jing? The young master of the Dark River Dungeon? ”
Bai Jinsheng's expression was very serious, did he really hear it right?
"Yes, yes! Do you know her? When did you meet? ”
Nan Jinyu held her forehead, how did she feel that the eldest brother had something to say, he has always been a stable person, and his emotions will not be as outgoing as the third brother, looking at his expression at this time, she always feels that he is angry!
"I've never met, so I don't know if it's an acquaintance?"
Bai Jinsheng pursed his lips, his gaze stayed on the crowd that had already dispersed behind the screen, and said in a low voice: "Bai Jing, who ran away from marriage five years ago, is now pretending not to know me?" I don't know if she has come up with any new tricks to torture people? ”
"Poof......
The tea that Nan Jinyu had just picked up was sprayed, and the whole person was in shock, thinking back to the way Bai Jing was talking to her, and suddenly realized something.
Bai Jing crossed over earlier than her, but the timing was not right, and they didn't have time to talk in detail, but if she didn't have the previous memory, then it would make sense if she didn't know Bai Jinsheng......
"Xiao Yu, don't believe it, she ran all the way to the northwest to Saiwai in order to escape from marriage, and I heard that she also met His Royal Highness King Qin later, I thought she would probably get entangled with Qin...... It disappeared in the following years, and since then, the two families have not been in touch. ”
Bai Jinsheng said that he knew that his words were a little sour, so he was directly silenced, and his face was not too ugly.
After all, it is understandable that the ordinary girl's family is reluctant to marry Nanzhao, but the baby relatives of their two families have escaped before they got married, and the entire southwest province knows that Bai Jintang has a magic trick to control snakes, so that he is still unmarried......
"Well, there must be some misunderstanding in this."
Nan Jinyu sighed, it is impossible to persuade her, this kind of grievance and hatred is not clear in one or two sentences.
"Maybe, but thank you Xiaoyu for your kindness."
Bai Jinsheng patted her on the head, which was counted as comforting her.
"Where...... Eh, Jinchen doesn't seem to be very happy, huh? What's wrong? ”
Nan Jinyu diverted the topic at the right time, and her eyes fell on the depressed Nan Jinchen.
In the past, he was very optimistic and cheerful, but now when he sees it, something is wrong, who provoked him?
"Oh, he's ...... If you ask him later, I won't talk much. ”
Bai Jin Sheng said with a smile, Jin Chen's temperament is more lively than the second child, but he is more honest than the third child, I didn't expect that his temperament would be so axial when he encountered something, and he was still sad about the fact that Mingjian Villa was tied up at this time!
"Well, okay."
Nan Jinyu saw that he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and he was still muttering in his heart.
The girl of the white crystal is still waiting for her to introduce the object, but now it's okay, the object can't be introduced, but she has found a rival......
"Xiao Yu, if you feel embarrassed, I'll go and talk to her for you."
Bai Jinsheng saw her sad face and thought that she was threatened by the white crystal.
After the Bai family left Nanzhao, one relied on its own efforts to develop a total of two veins, and now the other vein has declined and almost disappeared, only the vein of the Dark River Dungeon is still strong by virtue of this unique geographical advantage.
"Hmm...... Okay! ”
Nan Jinyu blinked, she didn't think that the white girl would be so stingy that she didn't introduce her into a partner to wear small shoes, but she really felt that this crystal was not another crystal, it was not a soul, and she couldn't keep taking the blame for the ghost, right?
"Well, that's what you did? Did she really threaten you? What did she use to coerce you? ”
Bai Jinsheng was stunned, and his expression became serious.
When he was on the road before, he heard that Bai Sakura had escaped into the Dark River Dungeon, so he hurried to deal with the matter at hand and rushed over, not wanting to be still a step too late, they had already returned, fortunately, the result was good, and Bai Sakura would not cause trouble to the world again.
She ...... said that if I don't introduce her to a good family, she won't make me crystal slippers and wedding dresses! ”
Nan Jinyu blinked innocently, and when she opened her eyes and said nonsense, she could even do it without blushing and her heart beating.
"Crystal slippers? Wedding dress? What are those rarities? Is it hard to find? ”
Bai Jinsheng was also stunned, and in the face of these new words from her, he felt that this white crystal was completely different from the one he had heard of.
"Valued...... ...... used when getting married"
Nan Jinyu's weak fingers, although this reason is very speechless, but she thinks that it is better for these two people to meet each other, even if there was something in the past, it is a good thing to be relieved now!
"Well, then I'll go there at night, and I just want to ask her, why did she run away from the marriage without making a sound? By the way, please pay a visit to the elders......"
Bai Jinsheng said seriously, but his eyes drifted away.
The environment of the Dark River Dungeon is closed, and I haven't moved around for so many years, so since I came, I should go and pay a visit to the elders.
"Elders? Do you mean her parents? ”
Nan Jinyu frowned, turned her gaze to Li Huanting, who was about to speak outside the door, and beckoned to her, "Miss Li, come in." ”
"Oh!"
Li Huanting walked in embarrassedly and smiled a little shyly.
"I didn't mean to eavesdrop on the conversation between the county lord and Lord Bai, it's just ...... In the early years, I heard that the owner of the dark river was a woman a long time ago, although the identity is mysterious, but it is said that the rebels were suppressed by thunder back then, and all the people who were fighting were thrown into the black water river to feed the fish. ”
Li Huanting's earth-shattering shock almost blew Bai Jinsheng's body to the ground.
"A few years ago? Are you sure? What resistance? And what about her parents? ”
"Big brother, don't worry, Miss Li shouldn't know much."
Nan Jinyu patted his arm, so it made sense, if the original owner was still alive, it would be impossible for the white crystal to cross over, and then again, a woman who can take revenge on herself should really be a ruthless person!
"The forces of the Dark River Dungeon are complex, the system is huge and comparable to the surrounding counties, and the major forces have accumulated grievances for many years, and a rebellion broke out five years ago, the old city lord and his wife were framed, and Bai Jing was seriously injured and fled to the northwest, and met my ......"
Xiao Chen didn't know when he came over, these are impossible for outsiders to know, even if it is Lord Yu, his knowledge is really limited.
If it weren't for her pity, he would probably still be in the desert with this girl!
"But the rumors ......"
Bai Jinsheng's face turned white inch by inch until there was no blood, and the black head in the black sleeve pocket was eager to poke out his head again, and a pair of scarlet eyes looked around curiously, as if he was looking for something.
"Oh my god!"
Nan Jinyu was taken aback by the thing that was spitting snake letters in her hand, and the whole person jumped directly into Xiao Chen's arms, and she was almost hugged by a sloth.
"It's looking for you."
Bai Jinsheng turned his face in surprise, raised his hand and stuffed the snake back into his sleeve pocket, and then slapped it twice, the red eyes on his fingertips suddenly closed, and he didn't move like a toy.
"Oh my god......"
Li Huanting was also scared enough, but there were people in front and behind, so she could only stand in place in a cold sweat, crying and laughing, she was really frightened.
"Miss Li?"
Ji Lingfeng came out to see this scene, pulled her out with his backhand, and then looked at Nan Jinyu's reaction before saying, "Lord Bai's pet is really special." ”
"Sorry, sorry! It scared Miss Li. ”
Bai Jinsheng was embarrassed to apologize, and his eyes couldn't help but sweep to Xiao Chen, "Thank you, Your Highness, for telling me the truth, I still won't wait for the night, let's go for a trip." ”
"Is Lord Bai going to the Dark River Dungeon?"
Ji Lingfeng listened for a while, and still insisted on seeing off Bai Ying.
"Yes, is the son going too?"
Bai Jinsheng turned his wrist and turned it behind him, and he also understood the reason in his heart.
In the early years, the prince of Yongning Hou had a good relationship with the king of Qin, and later fell out for the death of Princess Luoying, which was known to everyone, and in the next few years, they ignored each other, and then they fought outside the imperial study for the lord of Tianqing, and they were really two natural enemies......
"yes, why don't you go together?"
Ji Lingfeng opened his mouth generously, and Wanting said that he would accompany him before, but he felt that it was really inappropriate.
The death force of the Dark River Dungeon is complicated and not to mention, he went to pay tribute to the deceased, it was already unfair to her, and if he brought her again, it would be too bullying.
"That's exactly what I mean."
Bai Jinsheng and Ji Lingfeng quickly reached an agreement and discussed leaving. Dancing God eBook
There was still King Xian who was left in the courtyard who was hanging in the study, and Xiao Jin chatted with him about whether he had a match or not, until Xiao Chen returned, they were still wondering when Ji Lingfeng and Xiao Chen reconciled.
"Finished?"
As soon as Xiao Chen entered the door, he heard these two guys chattering and gossiping about why Ji Lingfeng was different from that Li girl, but his face was not displeased.
"Brother Three Emperors, I didn't say anything! It's all the old seven! I answered two sentences......"
The king looked scornful, for fear of being remembered.
The Luoxian disaster silver theft case was shocked, and King Yu escorted him back to Beijing to meet the three divisions of the trial, and everyone knew in their hearts that he was stupid in the past, and he always felt that he couldn't see through Xiao Chen, but now he is sober.
"Hehe, the king is really fast......"
Xiao Jin didn't smile, in the early years, he hid his identity and followed King Xian, but now that he has successfully caught the ghost, his identity has also been exposed, and it is pointless to hide anything.
"Disaster relief has been dealt with?"
Xiao Chen was not too lazy to take care of them, and went straight to the road.
The big case involved in the Huainan disaster relief involved many people, and the court attached great importance to it, but they were more relaxed.
"Everything has been dealt with properly, the distribution of relief materials for the surrounding victims has been completed, the accounting of the two accounts for the public has also been checked and handed over, and even the tax and silver of the merchants in Luo County for next year have been exempted......
Xianwang was afraid that no one would know what he was doing, so his eyes kept drifting out of the window.
It turned out that Xiao Yu Gongzi was the lord of Tianqing, and His Majesty allowed her to come, and she was like a fool with a whole mind to rectify people, but in the end, she was not only disgusted but also afraid of working in vain.
"Well, it's good, if there's nothing to do, you can leave for Beijing tomorrow, and we have other things to do."
Xiao Chen didn't find fault with anything else, he still knew that he was careful about the king, he pretended to be attached to the prince in the early years, but now he wants to stay neutral when he sees the wind, but he is afraid of being countered by the prince, he doesn't care, after all, the king is not as bold as King Yu, so he is not afraid.
"Huh? Just gone? ”
Xianwang thought about the big change of blood of Huainan officials, they were heroes, so they naturally had to stay and greet and familiarize themselves, or how to consolidate their power in the future, but looking at Xiao Chen's indifferent appearance, he was a little suspicious of his choice.
"Since the third brother has ordered, then we will leave for Beijing early tomorrow morning, and we will send a letter on the follow-up matters."
It is rare for Xiao Jin to be so serious, and the hat that had nothing to do earlier was finally taken off in this battle, and it was natural for him to return to Beijing to seal the king and leave the palace to open the mansion.
"Well, that's it."
Xiao Chen bowed, turned around and prepared to leave.
Bai Jinsheng came over in person, and another reason was that he had to return to Nanzhao, and after the matter here was resolved, there was naturally no need to delay any longer.
"Hey......"
Xianwang looked at Xiao Chen's unrelenting back, and sighed silently in his heart, he had done too much evil earlier, and he was looked down upon at this time?
Xiao Jin had already withdrawn and left in style.
Nan Jinyu, who was staying in the main room, was in a daze in front of the mirror, and until Xiao Chen came back, she was still struggling with some small problems.
For example, if Xiao Liuli doesn't find an excuse to marry and then get married, wouldn't she really want to be a sister-in-law?
For example, Bai Jinsheng went to find out if Bai Jing could come back alive or something.
Anyway, it's not my own heart.
"Tired?"
The silver figure approached, standing half a meter behind the dresser, looking fixedly at the person in the glass mirror.
"Well, not really."
Nan Jinyu got up, pulled the person to the table and sat down, and then began to set up food for him, "Hungry, right?" Eat something hot first. ”
"Okay."
Xiao Chen smiled at her, and when he saw that she seemed to be full of sadness, he said, "Didn't you sleep well?" Why don't you go to sleep again? ”
"No," Nan Jinyu waved her hand and took a sip of tea, "I'm thinking about Liuli, as well as my eldest brother and Bai Jing, am I worried?" ”
Xiao Chen bent the corners of his lips and said, "Then do you even have to worry about Ji Lingfeng and Miss Li?" ”
"Oh, not really, they're fine!"
Nan Jinyu shook her head, wondering if this vinegar essence was entangled again, and said bluntly.
"You don't have to worry about the seventh child, it's the white crystal...... Maybe it's a big problem. ”
Xiao Chen saw that she didn't know, but he still told the truth.
"I just wanted to ask you, it's inconvenient for people to say, didn't the Southwest Bai family know about the changes in the White Crystal family back then?"
Although Nan Jinyu believes in Bai Jinsheng's character, it is just that some things are not personal emotional issues, and when it comes to family interests, people are often very passive.
"I don't know."
Xiao Chen bowed his head, if the Southwest Bai family knew, things probably wouldn't have developed to that point.
"So why didn't Bai Jing ask for an explanation from the Southwest Bai family later? After all, the ...... who framed her for escaping from marriage"
Nan Jinyu sighed, although she didn't know what the other party had experienced, she must have been desperate and scared.
"She said that she has no face by relying on men, and she has escaped from marriage, so there is no reason to go back and look at people's faces, besides, people who have never met may not be willing to help her."
Xiao Chen's answer was like a stream, helping her was just a gesture, in exchange for the right to enter and exit the Dark River Dungeon, although he felt that this woman was not very serious, but fortunately she was smart enough.
"Crystal she's really ...... Live well enough! So she doesn't even know people's names? ”
Nan Jinyu sighed, it turned out that there was a reason why she didn't go to the southwest to find beauties!
"The marriage books are burned, and her brain is broken and she can't remember."
Xiao Chen looked at her fixedly, saw her expression relieved, and suddenly said, "You are from the same place, right?" ”
"Huh? Be. ”
Nan Jinyu raised her eyebrows, seeing him smiling, but there was a little panic in her eyes, as if something she regarded as a treasure was remembered, and she couldn't cry or laugh.
"So...... Do you want to go back? ”
Xiao Chen felt that he was stupid to ask this question, like a child who couldn't get candy, greedy and ridiculous.
"I don't want to, and I can't go back."
Nan Jinyu blinked, sighed and said, "My life in my previous life is over, how can I go back?" ”
"What if?"
Xiao Chen persevered, and also felt that he seemed to be a little vexatious.
"At least I won't go back." Nan Jinyu said seriously.
The white crystal girl is living a prosperous life here, they just quickly became friends because of the resonance in their souls, but the stupid thing of collective suicide and soul wear back, presumably no one will do it!
"I should have known this earlier, I should have told Bai Jinsheng that Bai Jing likes to drink wine."
Xiao Chen suddenly laughed and said with relief.
"Huh? What does this mean? ”
Nan Jinyu smiled, Xiao Chen sometimes looks like a child, and he is a little cute.
"The southwest is rich in grapes, so it's perfect for winemaking."
Xiao Chen said very naturally, what the two didn't expect, things they didn't expect.
Because, as soon as Bai Jinsheng and Ji Lingfeng stepped into the dark river, they were forcibly separated.
After Ji Lingfeng revealed his identity, the smooth oily ghost-faced man led him to the cliff side in the back alley of Flower Street, looking at the tumbling and rushing Heishui River and the piranhas swimming inside, his obsession disappeared in an instant.
However, Bai Jinsheng was not so lucky, and the beast-faced red-robed man who had been tortured and defected changed into a new green robe, and directly took down this dangerous element and escorted him into the city lord's mansion.
"It's really unfavorable for the passing year, what is unlucky!"
Bai Jing stared at the slightly astringent failed red wine in the wine glass, and his face was extremely gloomy.
As soon as King Qin and his entourage left last night, she asked for the information of Bai Jinsheng, the little ghost of the green-haired turtle, who knew that it was some unbearable old things to look back on!
"White Girl ......"
Bai Jinsheng was a little surprised, the person in front of him looked completely different from the quiet pale woman in the portrait a few years ago, only with a similar face.
"Bold! How can you wait for the white girl to be called? This is the new master of my dark river, even if Lord Bai is an official, he has to respect the city lord! ”
The green-haired turtle spoke sharply and did not give face at all.
