Chapter 66: Danger
The housekeeper's words made Bai Hanyan's heart calm for a long time, now her identity is a man after all, which is indeed a little unfair to Duan Changge.
Although she had long known that she and Duan Changge would not be fellow travelers, and that they would happen sooner or later, sitting on the edge of the bed, Bai Hanyan still couldn't help but feel sad for a while, half-closed her eyes, leaning on the bed, her heart fluctuated, and after a long time, she eased up a little.
Bai Hanyan tried her best to restrain herself and no longer thought about Duan Changge, but she waited for him in the room for two hours, and saw the dusk and sunset, but she still didn't see Duan Changge's figure.
Bai Hanyan still couldn't help but worry, could it be that he really met the killer Liu Suifeng outside?
Will he be in danger?
Frightened and almost unable to control himself, he couldn't care about anything anymore, Bai Hanyan got up and ran out of the Duan Mansion to go out to find him.
It's just that she didn't go far from Duanfu, and a big red soft sedan chair on the street blocked her way.
She slowly stopped, and a group of people in front of her seemed to fall from the sky and appeared on the street, immediately there were a dozen men in black clothes with knives, who seemed to be bodyguards, and several sedan chair drivers without weapons, and a soft sedan chair with red paint in the middle.
Bai Hanyan had a faint premonition in her heart, and she quietly raised her eyebrows.
"Han Tuiguan, my master is invited." The man with a knife on horseback at the head said to her without emotion.
Bai Hanyan frowned, sure enough, he came for her.
"Now that you know my identity, you should tell me who your master is?" Bai Hanyan glanced sideways at him, and his eyes, which were as dark as a deep pool, were cold.
"Han Tuiguan will know when he goes, my master just wants to see you." The man's answer was unquestionable.
Bai Hanyan sneered, it seems that Ji Bangyue is right, some people really can't bear it, and the truth is faintly moving in the abyss.
"Okay, I'll go with you." She came to see which fish she was surprised of.
With that, she slowly walked to the soft sedan chair, bent down and got in, and at that moment, the sedan chair man immediately lifted the sedan bar, walked towards her unknown place with white cold smoke.
Bai Hanyan closed his eyes in the soft sedan chair, and his face was indifferent, but there was a hole in the soft sedan chair, and the sedan chair man had just closed the sedan door and put the top of the sedan chair, and it was almost all pitch black here, sulky, there was no window sedan curtain, this soft sedan chair was like a wooden secret room, and the movement outside was completely isolated from her.
Bai Hanyan snorted coldly, this person turned out to be such a big show, she was curious at this time, who would be the person who wanted to see her?
Finally, about half an hour later, as the sedan chair slammed to the ground, Bai Hanyan opened his eyes.
Someone stretched out his hand to open the door of the sedan car, A faint light rushed in, Bai Hanyan raised his legs and stepped into the sedan chair, but saw a man with a short and fat mustache like a winter melon standing on the side, and he was squinting at her at this time.
Bai Hanyan glanced at him lightly and withdrew his gaze, then frowned slightly, and fell his gaze back, this person was wearing a red official robe, embroidered cranes, and the belt around his waist was jade, which was the outfit of the current dynasty.
Thinking of this, Bai Hanyan couldn't help but open his phoenix eyes slightly.
"Do you recognize the identity of this official?" The man looked at her, his mustache slightly curled, and he opened his mouth with a smile rather than a smile.
Bai Hanyan was slightly possessed, and said lightly: "Xiaguan Guiyang Mansion pushes official Han Yan, see Master Chang Lang of the Criminal Department." ”
Chang De touched his mustache, nodded and said with a smile: "You can guess the identity of this official, you are not too stupid, but it's a pity that you ......" Before the words were finished, Chang De suddenly fell silent and stopped speaking.
Bai Hanyan's expression was faint, and he asked, "Could it be that Lord Chang wants to see the lower officials?" ”
Chang De smiled lightly and said: "Some time ago, this official was ordered by the emperor to inspect the northwest, and he only came back today, but I didn't expect that this official had only left for a few months, and there was such a big event in the court when he came back. Han Tuiguan, this official really wants to see you, but today, this official is also invited. ”
He flicked his sleeves, turned around and left, and said, "Let's go, Han Tuiguan, go and meet the owner of this house, aren't you curious about who wants to see you, just go in." ”
Bai Hanyan raised his head at his words, and there was a two-story building in front of him, with blue tiles and vermilion paint, compared to other mansions and courtyards in the capital, it was not elegant enough.
Bai Hanyan followed his steps behind Changde, and saw that he was wearing an official uniform and took it off, indicating that he was very nervous about this invitation, so the person who wanted to see her must also have an official position, and his rank was not low.
Sure enough, through the arched corner door, the red lacquer gate in front of me was hidden, and the black plaque on the door was written with three gilded characters of "Tinglan Garden".
Changde pushed open the door, raised his legs and walked in, Bai Hanyan also stepped into the door with his steps, and when he raised his eyes to see the people inside, at this moment, she felt a little flattered, it seems that her big stone really lifted the water in the capital.
In addition to Changde, the servant of the Criminal Department, who came with her, sat on both sides of the hall, Chen Anran, the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, Jiang Wuji, the Jinyi Wei Qianhujiang Wuji, the envoy of the Criminal Department, Wang Xin, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Wang Ruizhuo, and the one sitting at the head was the current Household Servant Wang Zuonong.
are all officials of the third rank or above, Bai Hanyan couldn't help but sneer, feeling that these people really looked up to her, I am afraid that even the emperor's imperial study in the palace will not be able to sit in these people.
"Xiaguan see a few adults." Bai Hanyan stood at the door, the look on his face was as usual, and he even had a shallow smile.
Chen Anran, the head of Dali Temple, glanced at him, sneered, and said, "How can I be so bold as Han Tuiguan, dare to trespass into my Dali Temple and make a big fuss." I thought that someone behind her supported her, but I didn't expect that the former Dragon and Tiger General had always been arrogant and uninhibited, and he was also good at Longyang, which was really a joke! ”
Bai Hanyan saw that his face was full of ridicule when he mentioned Duan Changge, and she couldn't help but be angry, she didn't allow others to ridicule him so wantonly, she couldn't help but change her face instantly, snorted coldly, and said: "How can Lord Duan not be Lord Xu's turn, Lord Chen just needs to remember, now he can safely teach his subordinates here, but Lord Duan fought bloodily on the battlefield in exchange for ......."
Before Bai Hanyan finished speaking, Jiang Wuji had already interjected and reprimanded angrily: "Ignorant rat generation, Lord Chen has no grudge against you, how can you allow this six-grade junior official to slander and dispose of your beak several times, General Duan has made great achievements in the past, I thought that you could learn some of General Duan's pride and freedom by following him, but I didn't expect that all I learned was some people who were in their eyes and didn't know how to be polite." This official is kind enough to teach you to lead the way for Master Duan, why do you dare to disagree? “
Jiang Wuji's words were mean and vicious, and every sentence seemed to be positive and depreciative, meaning something, Bai Hanyan was angry at the moment, looking at him with a pair of eyes burning with anger, Wang Xin on the side couldn't listen to it, and said: "Jiang Qianhu, pay attention to your words." “
"Alright." Wang Zuonong, the first head of the household, interrupted the conversation of several people, raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Hanyan, who was standing in the middle, and said coldly: "Han Tuiguan, the old man really underestimated you on the top of the Jinluan Palace that day, but I didn't expect you to be not only sharp-toothed, but also clever in this way. ”
Bai Hanyan arched his hand slightly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The lower official is stupid, I don't know what Lord Wang is referring to?" ”
Wang Zuonong suddenly slapped the desk on his side and shouted: "Han Yan, you are so bold!" ”
After that, several men in strong suits suddenly burst out of the ear room, and as soon as they raised their hands, several people restrained Bai Hanyan in unison, kicked her in the crook of her leg, and she was forced to kneel on the ground.
Bai Han struggled twice, but she couldn't break free, she looked up at Wang Zuonong, and sneered: "Xiaguan was just ordered to investigate the death of Lin Zhifan, but it was the death of a three-grade Jinyiwei, and Xiaguan couldn't figure it out, first Lord Chen obstructed Xiaguan in Dali Temple, and then Lord Jinyi Weijiang's ruthless stabbing, and now it is Lord Wang's anger that he doesn't understand, Xiaguan really doesn't know, what did he do wrong?" ”
"What's wrong? Hum! Wang Zuonong's face was gloomy, as cold and fierce as today's gloomy sky: "You don't know where you went today! The guilty minister Bai Jinghang has always been a thorn in His Majesty's heart, he knows the law and violates the law, and embezzles taxes under His Majesty's eyelids, and still does not know where the corrupt silver tael is. What Lord Han did today, it is difficult to think of bringing up this matter again! Your Majesty's health is deteriorating now, if you want to displease Your Majesty, I and the other courtiers will never agree! ”
Bai Hanyan understood the meaning of his words, raised his eyebrows slightly, stared, and a chill gradually appeared on his face: "Xiaguan has always been unable to let go of any clues, Lin Zhifan only had an accident after going to Baifu, and it is understandable for Xiaguan to investigate." Lord Wang's anger is really out of nowhere, if the Lord insists on wronging Han Yan like this, he is planning to kill the lower official on trumped-up charges! ”
"With such a sharp mouth, this official would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one."
Wang Zuonong stood up from his seat and slowly walked towards Bai Hanyan, looking at her face full of gloomy color, a pair of eyes were cold and gloomy, Bai Hanyan knew that he was not intimidating, but really murderous, and suddenly shuddered.
Bai Hanyan raised his eyes to look at Wang Xin, who was sitting on the side, but at this moment, he didn't mean to save him, he just looked at her, there was still a smile on his face, and he couldn't tell the difference between joy and anger.
Bai Hanyan slowly lowered her head, in this treacherous capital, she had no one to trust.
"Do it!" Wang Zuonong gave an order, and the man with a knife behind him immediately agreed, and with a roar of a knife, he pulled out a big knife from his waist, and a few people on the side pressed Bai Hanyan hard, and the man raised a big knife and slashed at her neck!
"Yo, Lord Wang, it's lively for you to dance knives and guns here, but no one calls me for this kind of scene."
A gloomy and low male voice sounded behind him, and Jiang Wuji on the side had already changed color.
Bai Hanyan couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect him to come.
