Chapter 582: Rejection of Chu Rui'an
Gu Yiqing agreed to Bai Liheng's request to leave the capital to investigate the matter, so Bai Liheng was going to leave three days later.
After Shen Yanjun learned about this matter, she still felt worried.
After all, no one had ever investigated the matter of the Tianyi Clan before.
"What's wrong?" Gu Changjing saw Shen Yanjun sitting here a little sadly, so he asked suspiciously.
Shen Yanjun shook her head.
"It's nothing, it's just that I always feel a little uneasy about this time. If something happens to Bai Liheng because of my affairs, what should I do then? Shen Yanjun's tone was a little melancholy.
Gu Changjing naturally understood her thoughts.
However, in the end, it is still comforting.
"Jun'er, you naturally don't have to worry about this matter, the reason why Bai Liheng has such a good reputation is naturally some ability. Since we have entrusted this matter to him, shouldn't we trust him to do it well? Gu Changjing asked, and Shen Yanjun nodded at this time.
"Well, there's some truth to what you're saying. In that case, let's go and see tomorrow, and if you need anything, it's good to have some prepared. Saying that, Gu Changjing naturally agreed.
The next day, the two went to Bai Liheng's house together.
Only then did I find out that although Bai Liheng is still a big official today, it is just that the family is very simple.
There is no sense of luxury at all.
This made Shen Yanjun feel a little surprised.
When Bai Liheng saw them coming, his attitude was also enthusiastic.
"Lord, princess, why did you come to me today?" Bai Liheng asked, and Shen Yanjun smiled.
"We knew that the adults were about to leave, so I thought I'd come over and have a look."
Bai Liheng naturally nodded, and Gu Changjing handed Bai Liheng some silver tickets he had prepared.
"Lord Bai is an honest official, and there must still be a lot of money to be used this time. Therefore, you should not refuse. Although Bai Liheng has no concept of silver money, what Gu Changjing said also makes sense.
Therefore, there is no excuse either.
"My lord, I have never seen such a modest mansion." Shen Yanjun couldn't help but say.
Bai Liheng felt a little embarrassed at this time.
"Oh? Is it? It's just that there is nothing but me and my mother at home, a few girls and little girls, so I don't have to go through a lot of trouble to decorate. This is already very good, and besides, most of my money is spent on buying books, so the courtyard is still a little shabby. Bai Liheng's words made Shen Yanjun laugh.
I thought he was a tall scholar, but I didn't expect him to be just a simple teenager.
However, Gu Changjing was more thoughtful than Shen Yanjun, and now looking at Bai Liheng, he was still thinking about the Tianyi clan.
So the two of them sat here and discussed for a while.
After a while, I saw an old lady who looked a little older coming over with a snack.
Shen Yanjun guessed that this should be Bai Liheng's mother.
"Thank you."
Shen Yanjun said, and the old lady also showed a kind smile.
left a pretty good impression on Shen Yanjun.
"Alright, that's all for today. Lord Kashiwa, let's be careful when we travel tomorrow, we have no choice but to leave first. ”
While speaking, Gu Changjing and Shen Yanjun left first.
Shen Yanjun couldn't help but sigh at this time.
"I don't think it's a big deal for the others, but this Kashiwa-sama seems to be really different." Shen Yanjun only thinks that Bai Liheng is a real literati.
But it doesn't have the sour smell of those literati.
"In this way, you should be able to rest assured. When the time comes, I will arrange for two guards to follow the adults, and when the time comes, I don't have to worry about the safety of the adults. Gu Changjing said, and Shen Yanjun was a lot more relieved.
Chu Ruian naturally knew that Bai Liheng would leave in three days.
This time, the last time I came to Baifu, I was still turned away.
No matter how hypocritical Chu Ruian is, he still can't bear it now.
"My lord, I'm sorry, our Lord Bai said, this is a special period, and now it is inconvenient for him to meet with you, everything will be said after he has finished investigating the affairs of the Tianyi clan."
The little guy spoke helplessly, but at this time, the expression on Chu Ruian's face was not so good-looking.
At this time, he only showed an unkind look.
"Really? What if I have to go in? Saying that, Chu Ruian directly put down this little guy.
He is the secretary of the military department, which is also a piece of cake for him.
At this time, Bai Liheng heard the movement outside, and after seeing what Chu Ruian did, he also showed an incredible look.
"Master Chu, what do you mean by this?" Bai Liheng's face was cold, but Chu Ruian still didn't think so.
"It's nothing, Kashiwa-sama. If I hadn't really had something to discuss with you today, I wouldn't have made this decision. Lord Bai, I'm here today, won't you let me go in and have a look? Chu Ruian said, although Bai Liheng didn't care about 1, but he didn't want the relationship between them to be too stiff, so he made way out of the way.
Then, let people go and help the little guy up.
"Master Chu, if there is anything, you can just say it. I've always disliked people beating around the bush. With that, Bai Liheng sat down.
Chu Rui'an's face didn't look very good, and he looked at Bai Liheng for a long time at this time.
"My lord, do you know what this matter of the Tianyi clan means to King Qi?"
Bai Liheng didn't know why Chu Ruian wanted to ask himself this, but he still nodded.
"I have naturally heard about the affairs of the black robe group, as well as the affairs of the princess, and Lord Chu asked what these mean." Bai Liheng had a cold face.
At this time, Chu Ruian looked at Bai Liheng with a smile.
"For my Daxuan, the King of Qi is the biggest hidden danger, if he exists in the court for a day, the emperor can't hold all the power, don't you know what you should do now?"
Bai Liheng listened to Chu Rui'an's words. Just think it's too ridiculous?
Not to mention, all these things Gu Changjing has done over the years are good for the country.
Let's just say that in the past few days, I haven't felt that he is a bad person in my contact with Gu Changjing.
In this way, I didn't care much about Chu Rui'an's words.
"Okay, Master Chu, I don't know what you mean by saying something today. However, I naturally have my own opinion, and you should not continue to have this idea, otherwise, I will not talk to you so politely. ”
Bai Liheng's tone was cold, and Chu Ruian realized that he was a person who didn't eat oil and salt, soft and hard.
At this time, his face was even more embarrassed.
I wanted to give him a chance, but now it seems that he can only use coercion.
