Chapter 21: The Blackface General

At this time, the middle hall was densely packed with people, Bai Zhi and a general sat in the main seat, and the rest of the people were standing, one row was a sonorous and domineering soldier with complete armor, and a row was a family maid with a depressed expression, standing on both sides, and the distinction was clear.

But I don't see the eldest lord or any elders of the Wang family here.

Bai Zhi and the general seemed to be arguing about something, and when they saw Wang Caiqi coming in, they stopped talking, and both of them looked at Wang Caiqi with amazing eyes.

Wang Caiqi is dressed in red, her expression is as indifferent as water, the two sides are integrated, and she is glamorous.

Seeing this scene, Wang Caiqi was stunned, and saluted the general and Bai Zhi on the surface peacefully, and asked suspiciously: "I have seen Mr. Bai Zhi and this general, forgive the Wang family for being negligent, it's just that the next person said that the master called me, why don't you see him here!"

"The general?" the general pointed to his nose in surprise, his eyes were very hurt, and his healthy wheat-colored face was a little gloomy.

Wang Caiqi asked suspiciously: "Is the title of the little woman wrong?

Yesterday, the black-faced general said that he would send someone to interrogate, and Wang Caiqi naturally dealt with it carefully.

"Poof!", Bai Zhi, who was drinking water quietly on the side, suddenly showed a smile on her cold and boundless face, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she put down the tea bowl, and her deep eyes were full of smiles.

Wang Caiqi raised her eyebrows, not knowing what this person meant.

The general's face sank, his face stiffened, he stood up with a thud, walked to Wang Caiqi with sonorous steps, and said with a look of longing: "It's me, Li Yuqi, the leader of the forbidden army who saved you yesterday, don't you remember?"

"Huh?" Wang Caiqi was stunned, looked him up and down, and suddenly said, "The black-faced general last night?"

"Poof...... Hahaha!"

As soon as Wang Caiqi said this, Bai Zhi smiled more proudly and rampantly, and the soldiers couldn't help but laugh with their faces and shoulders.

"Black ...... Black-faced general!" Li Yuqi was bitter, as the commander of the forbidden army, he learned art when he was a child, and his complexion was darker than ordinary people, but this little woman was the first person to call himself a black-faced general in person.

"Yes, the black-faced general, the general still thinks of himself as Miss Six's life-saving benefactor, and he thinks that Miss Six loves you, but it's a pity, it's a matter of talk, I'm afraid that the black-faced general thinks too much!" Bai Zhi joked.

"Mr. Bai Zhi misunderstood, but late last night, the general saved the Wang family and the fire and water, it was inevitable that dust fell on his face, the little woman couldn't see clearly, please don't blame the general, the general saved the Wang family's grace, and his own lord repaid him, although the little woman was moved, she didn't dare to think about it!"

Wang Caiqi not only explained why she couldn't recognize Li Yuqi, but also made it clear that she repaid the grievances, and directly stated that she didn't want to be emotionally involved with this general.

"So good, the black-faced general is the queen's nephew, and he has a bright future in the future, and ordinary women are not worthy of him!" Bai Zhi's eyes burned, staring at Li Yuqi, who was a little lonely and injured, as if warning.

"Hmph, the last general's marriage, Mr. Don't worry about it!" Hearing Bai Zhi's sarcasm, Li Yuqi fought back coldly.

Looking at the quarrel between the two people with completely different styles, Wang Caiqi couldn't help but darken his face, hurriedly interrupted their words, and asked in a loud voice: "I don't know what the two of you are here, what's the matter?

The latter sentence is for Wang Zhi.

General Li Yuqi hurriedly replied: "Sister Caiqi, Lord Shangshu was reprimanded by His Majesty this morning, and was dragged out and beaten for twenty boards, and now he has been carried to the backyard to rest!"

"Huh?" Wang Caiqi's eyes widened in surprise, and her clear eyes were full of shock.

"My uncle is also a second-class courtier, a civil official, but it was a fire at night, how could the punishment be so severe?" she was puzzled, although her face was worried, her eyes were full of schadenfreude.

"Not really, Caiqi's sister is in the inner courtyard, I don't know the rumors outside, it is very unfavorable to the Wang family, today there are people in the Yushitai who are visiting the Shangshu, the family is not strict, the godson is conniving, does not renew promises, wanton indulgence, forcibly occupies fertile land, oppresses the people, and punishes several crimes, but he has beaten twenty boards, which is considered an extra favor!"

Thinking that she was worried about her eldest uncle, Li Yuqi told Wang Caiqi the reason.

"Oh, I'm relieved!" Wang Caiqi nodded, this punishment is indeed very light, presumably someone is protecting it.

"The general came today, did he want to ask about yesterday's fire?" Unwilling to be distracted elsewhere, Wang Caiqi directly asked him about his intentions.

Li Yuqi nodded and shook his head, and said with a long sigh: "The Wang family has already asked about this matter, and the cause and effect have been known, but now, Wang Chong is dead, and it is over!"

Wang Caiqi said in his heart that he was really dead, but he frowned and pretended not to know, and said in amazement: "Dead, although the housekeeper burned the house, but it was an unintentional move, and the crime is not to death, how can he be beheaded so quickly?"

Li Yuqi saw that she had misunderstood, shook his head and explained: "It's not a beheading, he killed himself in fear of crime, and he died in prison in the middle of the night, which is also tragic, the culprit is dead, and there is no need for the forbidden army to pursue it anymore!"

"Ahh

Seeing this, Li Yuqi's heart of pity was great, and he hurriedly took two steps forward, raising his hand to pat Wang Caiqi's shoulder, but Bai Zhi pointed at him in the air, and a strong wind popped out, pushing his hand away.

Withdrawing his hand, Li Yuqi said: "The matter is over, Sister Caiqi is kind-hearted, but you must also be careful not to be assassinated!"

He looked at Wang Zhi vigilantly.

"The people of our Wang family have always been harmonious, and the housekeeper's arson is also an accident, and what the general thinks will not happen!" Wang Caiqi's voice was soft, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, extremely innocent.

Thanksgiving, Wang Caiqi continued to say to General Li gently: "Since the matter is over, the eldest uncle is not here, and the little girl will not keep the general, so as not to spread the word badly!"

"What's wrong, I'm here in person, just to take a look at you!" Li Yuqi looked at the immature and thin Wang Caiqi with strange eyes, his eyes were full of pity, "You have no parents at a young age, and the rumors outside are not good, you live alone, the third uncle had a great friendship with me back then, I should take care of you! If you need anything, just tell me, I'll let my mother send it to you!"

"Uh......" Wang Caiqi was stunned, "I didn't expect the general to have a friendship with his parents, disrespectful and disrespectful, and please accept the little girl's worship!"

Seeing that Wang Caiqi was so polite, it made Li Yuqi a little embarrassed, he laughed twice and said, "It's easy to say!" but he didn't dare to say anything more to take care of!

The woman's thin posture is arrogant, and she is kind of indifferent on the surface that rejects people thousands of miles away.

"That'...... The little woman sent the general on behalf of the eldest uncle, and if anyone asked, please also ask the general to explain the reason for the fire in the Wang family, everything is a misunderstanding, so as not to let the eldest uncle be blamed!"

Li Yuqi scratched the back of his head, facing this calm and indifferent woman, he felt pity in his heart, but he always felt that it was impossible to say anything, sighed, unwillingly arched his hand, and took people away.

However, after Li Yuqi walked out of the gate of the middle hall, his body shook violently, and he looked back at Bai Zhi in surprise, Bai Zhi glanced back with a provocative look, Li Yuqi looked back domineeringly, and after a moment he sighed and scratched his head to leave.
