Chapter 53: Entering Beijing (1)
"I will re-plan this matter, but you ......" Duan Changge looked back at her, and there was a trace of worry in his angry eyes: "The emperor let you enter Beijing with you, I'm afraid there will be some temptation." You have to learn to hide your edge and show weakness, otherwise, I am not by your side, and no one can save you. ”
Bai Hanyan felt a trace of emotion in her heart, and she couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth and said, "Don't worry, I know how to do it." ”
Duan Changge looked at her smile and gradually lowered his anger, just looking at her flower-like smile, he couldn't help but have a dark look in his eyes. After a long time, he retracted his gaze and looked away, and asked casually: "Listening to Cangli, you and the new director Qiao Chu seem to be very close?" ”
Bai Hanyan's expression froze, he didn't know why Duan Changge mentioned Qiao Chu for no reason, could it be that he knew that when she first came to Guiyang, she saw Qiao Chu in prison privately.
After thinking about it, she pursed her lips, and Bai Hanyan said, "I'm not familiar with him. ”
Duan Changge glanced at her meaningfully, Bai Hanyan felt a shudder in his heart for no reason, and he didn't know why he had such an inquiring look.
At this moment, the sky gradually turned gray, and a few rooster crows awakened the hope of dawn, but the hazy gray was still so that people could not see each other.
Duan Changge stretched out his slender hand and patted her shoulder gently, and sighed lightly: "Han Yan, this official has high hopes for you, don't let me down." ”
Bai Hanyan was slightly stunned, and then nodded with a smile, but she didn't know the deep meaning of his words at that time.
Ji Bangyue didn't stay long in Guiyang, and was about to leave for Beijing on the second day, Duan Changge didn't say anything, just asked Li Chengdu and Bai Hanyan to go to Beijing together.
Before leaving, Ji Bangyue's well-trained Jinyi Wei 500 entourage team, in addition to two iron barrel-like cages, there were actually two big red sandalwood coffins.
Duan Changge was wearing a fire armor and riding a big horse but his face was full of displeasure, Ji Bangyue explained with a smile: "The Holy Lord is sympathetic to Lord Wang, although he is from the Wu tribe, he has done his best for my Daming, although he can't be buried in his father's ancestral home, but he can't be buried in his mother's ancestral home in an irregular manner, and I specially ordered me to take the remains of his husband and wife to the Beijing Master and choose a feng shui treasure place for burial." ”
Duan Changge snorted sarcastically: "It's just that it's already buried and being snatched out, and it's not peaceful after all." ”
Ji Bangyue hurriedly said: "Lord Duan's words are wrong, in the capital master Lord can be contaminated with dragon qi, but it is his blessing." ”
Duan Changge didn't say anything, but he was faintly worried in his heart, the remains of Wang Jin and his wife were buried in Beijing, and the chief of Guiyang had to go with him to deal with related matters, I am afraid that Qiao Chu would definitely not be at ease with him this time, and maybe there would be some waves.
He couldn't help but glance at Bai Hanyan who was accompanying him worriedly, hoping that she and Qiao Chumo would get too close and not live up to his trust.
Bai Hanyan felt his gaze, turned his head to meet him, the two looked at each other for a long time, and Bai Hanyan smiled at him shallowly.
Duan Changge was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked elsewhere.
Ji Bangyue raised the horsewhip, snapped, resounded for thousands of miles, took the lead in riding a horse and galloping, and left with the brocade guard team behind him.
Duan Changge rode on his horse and watched the mighty procession drift away, his deep eyes shining like eagle eyes with sharp light.
Cang Li rode close to his side, slightly attached to his fist and said: "The last general will follow all the way, and when they get out of the Guiyang realm, take the opportunity to rescue Miss Lingji." ”
Duan Changge shook his eyes sideways suddenly, Cang Li was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head slightly, "The last general is stupid." ”
Duan Changge coldly hooked the corners of his lips and said: "Intercepting and killing halfway, where is his Ji Bangyue's crime bigger than losing people in Jinyiwei Prison." I'm afraid that at that time, he Ji Bangyue will not be able to eat and walk around. ”
"However, it is as difficult as climbing to heaven to rob people in the edict prison......"
Duan Changge glanced at Cangli with disdain, and snorted coldly: "There is nothing in this world that I Duan Changge can't do. ”
Cangli nodded, and then turned his head to look at the crowd in the distance, and it was difficult to distinguish which one would be Bai Hanyan.
I just hope that nothing will go wrong in this line.
The wind and grass are blowing all the way, the sun is scorching, I don't know where the residual leaves come from, gently fluttering in the breeze, swirling and sweeping in front of the wind, on the back of the red horse, the white robe of the white cold smoke gently swayed with the wind, and there are a few strands of black hair, sticking to her snow-white cheeks.
Qiao Chu drove the horse a little closer to her, turned his head to look at her, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "How is it, the sun is too vicious, can you still stand it?" ”
Bai Hanyan wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and his sunburned cheeks also raised a smile and said, "It's okay, I just didn't expect Brother Qiao to accompany him." ”
"Why, you don't want to?" Qiao Chu looked at her and half-jokingly.
Bai Hanyan was stunned, and then smiled lightly: "How come, Hanyan can't ask for it." ”
Qiao Chu just hooked his lips and smiled faintly, and suddenly, he suddenly approached her and lowered his voice: "These days, what clues have you found next to Duan Changge about Lord Bai's case?" ”
Bai Hanyan sighed lowly, couldn't help but shake his head a little disappointed, and said, "There are no clues, I don't know if he hid it too well, or if it really has nothing to do with his father." ”
Qiao Chu's pupils deepened without a trace, and suddenly turned his head to look at her again, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, as if it was a strange smile: "It's good to get to Jingshi, maybe there will be new clues." ”
Bai Hanyan stared at him and asked him in surprise: "How did Brother Qiao know that Jingshi would have clues?" ”
Qiao Chu looked at her, his eyes were slightly dark, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, the tax that Lord Bai is greedy for has not yet been dropped, and there are many pairs of eyes in the capital who are staring at the movement of this silver. ”
Bai Hanyan pondered his words carefully, and exclaimed, "Brother Qiao means to let me be the stone for the falling lake." ”
Qiao Chu looked at her with a smile and pursed his lips silently.
Bai Hanyan lowered his head and pondered secretly, what Qiao Chu said was indeed reasonable, this case has been silent for five years, as long as there is any sound that evokes this case, the people hidden in the shadows will definitely not be able to sit still, and there will naturally be clues to be found.
It's just that it makes Bai Hanyan more vigilant against Qiao Chu, I don't know why he is so concerned about his father's case, would he really be willing to overturn the case for his father? Bai Hanyan couldn't understand his thoughts, he only felt that his scheming was deep, and people couldn't see through his intentions more and more.
The night came quietly, the twilight was getting thicker, and the group marched into a dense forest, where a piece of grass and trees was hidden in the dark night, and it was impossible to see clearly, and the night covered all the scenery for a long time, and the white cold smoke could only hear the wind howling in the forest, which made people shudder.
Ji Bangyue ordered the Jinyi Guards to dismount and camp on the spot, and the five hundred entourages dispatched this time were all elite Jinyi Guards, and the marching camp was also orderly, surrounded by dark camp tents, surrounded by sentry posts, and the defense was very strict.
In this way, Bai Hanyan never approached the Lingmiao brothers and sisters by half a step.
In the tent, she looked out through the small window, thinking that she was getting closer and closer to the land of the capital now, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Li Chengdu approached her and said curiously: "Lord Han, do you have something on your mind when you look impatient?" ”
Bai Hanyan looked at him in surprise, so he had to purse his lips and say nothing, Qiao Chu, who was drinking tea on the side, smiled and said: "If you want to see those two prisoners, you will go openly, you, the prisoner who was personally arrested by the magistrate, he and the two of them have not eaten or drunk for several days, can't you reprimand a few words." ”
Qiao Chu easily saw through her thoughts, it seemed that Duan Changge was right, she really should hide her thoughts.
Bai Hanyan opened the tent, and walked straight to the iron cage, and the strict brocade guards who surrounded it all looked at her, led by a brocade guard Bai Hu, Bai Hanyan remembered him, the one who almost found her at the prison gate, and later, she inquired a little, called Wang Xi.
Wang Xi saw Bai Hanyan approaching, got up to greet him, and said politely with a slight bow: "Han Tuiguan, what are you doing here so late." ”
Bai Hanyan glanced at the two people in the cage, and saw that although the two of them were sluggish, they were not beaten, so he relaxed a little, hooked his lips and said: "The official heard that the two of them don't eat or drink, and they are still stubborn when they think about it, so they can't help but want to reprimand." ”
Wang Xi glanced at her deeply, and said with a smile: "Lord Han is really jealous and hateful, but now that the case has been closed, and these two people have also been handed over to Jinyiwei to take over, Lord Han is afraid that it is unreasonable to see each other at this moment." ”
Bai Hanyan's face remained unchanged, he raised his lips to look at Wang Xi, and said with his lips pulled: "Could it be that Wang Baihu can't trust me, and suspect that I am complicit with the two of them, or am I complicit with Lord Duan to cover up privately?" ”
Wang Xi was taken aback, the emperor suppressed this matter, if he insisted on refusing, but he couldn't trust Guiyang Mansion, he was afraid that he would offend Duan Changge in the future.
At that moment, Lang Sheng laughed and said: "Where did Han Tuiguan say, Lord Duan is heartfelt, but I am a model to follow, how dare I doubt it?" ”
Bai Hanyan nodded with a faint smile.
Wang Xi turned to the side slightly and said respectfully: "Lord Han, please." ”
With that, with a wave of his hand, the brocade guard behind him made a way.
Bai Hanyan walked in, slowly walked under the iron prison of the two of them, stared at them coldly, and said, "Do you two think that you can be liberated without eating or drinking?" ”
The two people in the iron cage were silent for a while, but they ignored her words, and at the moment she couldn't hold her face, and said angrily: "Presumptuous, this official is talking to you, didn't you hear?" ”
Ling Miao leaned against the iron prison, his figure was thin and his expression was sluggish, and he had not been able to drop water for a few days, making his face pale and his lips dry, he didn't pick his eyelids, and opened his mouth to spit on her.
Seeing this, the brocade guards behind him couldn't help but laugh.
Bai Hanyan felt his saliva floating on his white robe, and at the moment anger came from it, he turned around and flicked his sleeves at Jinyiwei, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he looked at Wang Xi's posture of watching the show with his arms around his chest, and couldn't help but look cold, and hummed: "This official wants to ask this prisoner a few questions about the case, Wang Baihu is afraid that it will not be easy to hear." ”
