Chapter 187: The Wisher Takes the Bait

Bai Yi didn't pay much attention to it, but when he heard Bai Ling's evaluation, he also looked at that end with some curiosity. He frowned slightly, and he didn't understand why the people around him were exclaiming like that, and the person in the distance was beautiful, but like the kind of exquisite doll placed in the window, it was lifeless.

As Lin Jieyu and her entourage entered the water pavilion, everyone's short onlookers ended. Xiao Man's stomach was a little uncomfortable, Ah Li took her to find a thatched house not far away, Bai Yi only then spoke, "What's wrong with you, my face is a little wrong from seeing her coming." ”

"I just didn't expect to meet this lady here." Bai Ling replied softly, there are scattered visitors all around, and being able to enter here means that they all have some identities, so they can't talk nonsense, "I'm a little tired, wait for Xiaoman and them to come back in a while, let's go back." ”

Although he didn't understand what the reason was, he still nodded when he saw Bai Ling like this.

Suddenly, Bai Yi felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

"It's really you!"

The brother and sister turned around at the same time and saw a fat man in a silk robe standing behind him, who was the middle-aged man who had been arrested together at the east gate this morning.

"Ahh It's you! The brother and sister said in unison.

"Hi...... When I went back this morning, you were gone, and I forgot to ask your names, and I thought I wouldn't see you all again! The middle-aged man summoned the attendants, took the two money bags from himself and the servants, and stuffed them into the arms of the brothers and sisters, "I promised you the principal and interest money in the morning, and I will give it to you now!" Thank you so much for coming to the rescue this morning! ”

The middle-aged man wanted to shirk and make sure that the two brothers and sisters accepted the money, but Bai Yi took it with both hands and said, "You're welcome, we are also doing it with a fee." ”

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face became more and more happy, and it is really rare for a young man to have such a taste for himself in these years.

"The two of you can watch the lights here, you must have some origins, right?" The middle-aged man smiled, "Let me talk about myself first, my surname is Wang, Wang Yuzhang, my home is in Baili Lane in the west of the city, and I am a temporary staff member of the household department." ”

After that, Wang Yuzhang only waited for the brother and sister to "look up for a long time".

The Wang family started in the north by relying on the money business, and he went south alone after the separation, relying on his own ability and the relationship between the old days to establish the "Yuzhang ticket number", and now this ticket number alone in Pingjing has four branches, the reputation of "Yuzhang" can be said to be unknown to no one who does not know.

If he hadn't had to go out of the city alone this morning, he would have basically had to leave his mansion on weekdays.

Bai Ling really showed a surprised expression, "...... Do those city gate officials even dare to arrest outsiders? ”

Wang Yuzhang was stunned again, this time he really laughed.

Did the two siblings do it on purpose? Or have you really never heard of his name?

He shook his hand disappreciatively, "Oh, it's just an idle job for donation, and it's used to glorify the ancestors, what's the use of anything else, should it be dotted or dotted...... What about the two? ”

"I was apprenticed to my father in the Tai Hospital," Bai Yi bowed, "My name is Bai Yi, and this is my sister." ”

Bai Ling nodded lightly behind him to the outside of the king.

Wang Yuzhang's eyes flashed with a little surprise, but then he regained his composure and started talking with the Bai family brothers and sisters.

He was extremely talkative, and the news was also very well-informed, and even told the two brothers and sisters that the reason why Lin Jieyu appeared here was because this lady was seasick, so Emperor Jianxi sent a boat to send her back to the shore halfway through.

Bai Ling listened funny, Emperor Jianxi was sometimes unreasonable and majestic, and sometimes he was very good at discussing these small things, some people trembled in front of him all his life, but who knows, he turned around and had a gentle face.

While several people were talking, there was suddenly a sound of surprise from the crowd.

The three of them looked in the direction of the onlookers' attention, and saw several thick ropes hanging from the water pavilion, and a palace man carrying a lantern hanging at the lower end, was carefully probing the lantern to the water.

The crowd poured to the side of the stone bridge, and everyone asked what was going on.

"The lady in the water pavilion said that she couldn't see anything clearly when it was dark, so she asked people to go down and make a lantern to take a look at what the dragon was like."

"Yo, this is dangerous...... there was a discussion from the crowd, "I heard that these dragons sleep during the day and are active at night, so you can't be provoked." ”

"Isn't this hanging a rope, let's just take a look at what the dragon is!"

The rope gradually descended, and the faint light of the lantern had almost illuminated the wetland under the Yinfeng Garden, and there was no place, so the people pulling the rope on it dragged it horizontally together to change the spot.

"Huh!! Pregnant!! There you have it!! ”

The crowd suddenly became noisy, and in the dim light, something like a half-dead tree trunk lay between the water and the mud, and when the light hit, it flicked its tail and leaned aside.

On the second floor of the water pavilion, the gauze tent was opened, Lin Jieyu heard the news, and looked in the direction guided by the palace people, and really saw the legendary dragon, and there were two under the lantern, but they all looked a little lazy and lazy, and they were not very fun.

"Let's just put people down." Lin Jieyu said softly, "Just look at what you can see."

The old housekeeper who was on duty on the side, his face immediately turned white, "Niangniang, I can't help it, these dragons are all very fierce and bloodthirsty!" ”

"Fierce?" Lin Jieyu raised her eyebrows slightly, and chuckled, "Why can't this palace see where the murder is, the good Jiaolong is on the side, don't you just steal a few stumps and come to make up for it." ”

The old man shook his head again and again, "Niangniang, you must believe in the old man, these days are all the old man feeding these holy things, the beef and mutton fed are half and half thrown in, as long as they bite and shake a few times, the bone and flesh will be torn apart in an instant......"

Lin Jieyu snorted, her body leaned against the wooden barricade near the window, her satin-like black hair covered her snow-white shoulders and neck, she looked at the pool below and returned to the silence, and said softly, "...... If you don't let them go, how about this palace just let you go? ”

There was a sudden silence.

The old man's feet were weak, and he fell to his knees on the spot, he breathed rapidly, stared blankly at Jieyu who was smiling like a flower in front of him, and wanted to beg for mercy but couldn't make any sound because of fright.

Looking at this face full of fear, Lin Jieyu laughed very happily, she waved her sleeves, "Okay, let's send this old man down." ”

The palace people around him hesitated for a while, not knowing whether the "down" in Lin Jieyu's mouth meant releasing people or throwing people down.

"They are all people who do intimate things for the emperor, how can this palace be difficult for you?" Lin Jieyu hid her face and smiled, with a little softness in her eyes, "Okay, you don't need to wait, you are an old man, let's go back and rest early." ”

Only then did the old man come back to his senses, and felt that his limbs had regained sensation, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and a dry thank you sound came from his throat.

The surrounding palace people all bowed their heads in unison.

Lin Jieyu reached out and took off the golden hairpin on her head, she leaned half of her body out of the floating window of the water pavilion, and after a little gesture to aim, she threw the golden hairpin towards the crocodile.

The golden hairpin really landed on the dragon's tail, but it didn't seem to be painful or itchy, and it didn't provoke the slightest reaction.

"Jin Zhi," Lin Jieyu called back, "go find a father-in-law with a loud voice." ”

"Good Ratcha!" Jin Zhi smiled, "Niangniang wants to use human voices to shock these dragons?" ”

"No," Lin Jieyu said lightly, "From now on, if I throw anything into the pool, let that father-in-law report it loudly." ”。
