Chapter XXVIII

But Jiang Xiao obviously didn't want Bai Xiaofu to have time to hesitate and think, and continued to smile and asked: "White girl, this is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing, since Bai Xiao has such an ability, why should she bury herself, heroes are born in troubled times, and Bai girl must learn to grasp the opportunity." Those who grasp the timing well become heroes, and those who grasp the timing poorly can only become victims. ”

At this time, looking at Jiang Xiao's smile again, it made people feel creepy. Bai Xiaofu was obviously aware of Jiang Xiao's threat, but Bai Xiaofu didn't understand what Jiang Xiao was going to use to threaten himself and his own life?

Bai Xiaofu wanted to test Jiang Xiao, so he said to Jiang Xiao: "The little woman didn't say no, but His Royal Highness also wants to give the little girl some time to think about it." ”

Jiang Xiao smiled, "Doesn't the white girl understand?" I have already given the White Girl time to think about it again, but if the White Girl hesitates any longer, the White Girl will no longer have time to think about it. Although he still had a smile on his face at this time, the words he said became a naked threat.

Bai Xiaofu could only be obedient now, so he smiled and said: "The little girl is better to be respectful than to obey her fate, and she will have to rely on His Highness to make a fortune in the future." It's just that my brother Yumu has an empty head and strength, but his temper is very impulsive, I am afraid that he can't help the second prince, can he let his brother go home to take care of his mother, leaving only the little girl alone. ”

Jiang Xiao seemed to have some understanding of the brother introduced in Bai Xiaofu's words, so he said to Bai Xiaofu: "Miss Bai doesn't have to worry about this, since Miss Bai mentioned the king, she won't force it, as long as Miss Bai is willing to agree, everyone else will listen to Miss Bai." ”

Jiang Xiao looked very happy, laughed twice, and said: "This king has this good talent, it is the luck of this king, and I will have a good drink with the two of you today." Then he instructed his servants to prepare a banquet.

In the end, even Bai Xiaofu was drunk two glasses of wine, Bai Xiaofu had never drunk wine in his life, and he didn't know that his alcohol consumption was so poor, and when he finally left the palace, Bai Xiaofu was a little unstable, and returned to the inn with strong spirits, and as soon as he entered the door of the inn, his body fell into a warm embrace.

Jiang Zhen looked at Bai Xiaofu, who was a little drunk and drunk, picked him up horizontally and went back to the house where he lived, Bai Xiaofu saw Jiang Zhen, and subconsciously threw himself into Jiang Zhen's arms and fell asleep. Jiang Zhen didn't know where Bai Xiaofu had gone and what he had done, and why he had drunk.

It's just that when he saw Bai Xiaofu walking into the inn, Jiang Zhen thanked God incomparably, he felt that he was lucky at that moment.

Bai Xiaofu woke up very late, his head was still dizzy and painful, rubbing his temples, Bai Xiaofu sat up, and saw Jiang Zhen sitting quietly on the edge of the bed, quietly guarding himself, Bai Xiaofu opened his mouth, his throat was dry and he couldn't speak.

"Do you want to drink water?" Saying that, Jiang Zhen stood up, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Bai Xiaofu's lips.

Bai Xiaofu lowered his head and drank a glass of water into his stomach with Jiang Zhen holding the cup in his hand.

"Do you want more?"

Bai Xiaofu shook his head, cleared his throat, and said to Jiang Zhen, "When is this?" ”

"It's night, and you've slept all afternoon."

Bai Xiaofu opened his mouth at Jiang Zhen, he wanted to explain everything he hadn't said to Jiang Zhen in the past few days. But there are too many things to say, Bai Xiaofu doesn't know where to start, besides, Bai Xiao

Fu agreed to Jiang Xiao's request without Jiang Zhen's consent, and Bai Xiaofu was afraid that this would make Jiang Zhen no longer trust him.

Jiang Zhen seemed to see that Bai Xiaofu had some concerns in his heart, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Bai Xiaofu tried his best to summarize today's events briefly, "I went to the Second Prince's Mansion today. ”

Just speaking of this, Bai Xiaofu saw that Jiang Zhen's face suddenly turned pale, and Bai Xiaofu hurriedly added: "Big brother, don't worry, the second prince didn't recognize me." ”

"It's just ......" Bai Xiaofu hesitated a little about how to spit out the next words, "It's just that I agreed to help the second prince without the consent of my eldest brother." Saying that, Bai Xiaofu got down from the bed and knelt straight on the ground facing Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen looked at Bai Xiaofu's movements and felt distressed, Jiang Xiao is a cunning fox, cautious but insidious and cunning, since Bai Xiaofu saw his true body, how could he give Bai Xiaofu a chance to refuse, if Bai Xiaofu refused or behaved differently with Jiang Xiaofu's intentions, I am afraid that I would not be able to see him now.

Jiang Zhen stepped forward to help Bai Xiaofu, who was kneeling on the ground, hugged him tightly in his arms, and put his hand on Bai Xiaofu's back to gently comfort him, "Fool, didn't I say it?" You just have to come back well, nothing else matters. ”

Bai Xiaofu wanted to show his loyalty to Jiang Zhen, but when he saw the current situation, he knew that Jiang Zhen would definitely not misunderstand himself, Bai Xiaofu instantly calmed down, and slowly raised his hand and hugged Jiang Zhen's waist.

It's just that the two of them can't just hug like this, Bai Xiaofu gently patted Jiang Zhen's back, "Big brother let go of me, I haven't finished talking yet." ”

Jiang Zhen let go of Bai Xiaofu and sat face to face with Bai Xiaofu, Bai Xiaofu continued: "Big brother, I don't think this matter is necessarily a bad thing for us, as long as the big brother believes in me." In this way, we can have a way to learn about the situation in Kyosato. ”

Jiang Zhen frowned, and said worriedly: "What does Jiang Xiao ask you to do, will it be dangerous, will it be with him often?" ”

Bai Xiaofu shook his head, "I just want to find someone who takes care of each other in the border area, Qian Sanjin's hand to make money, Qian Sanjin is his person, but I always feel that Qian Sanjin doesn't seem to want to be like this, the relationship between the two seems to be harmonious, but it is not an equal relationship at all." ”

Jiang Zhen pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, and explained to Bai Xiaofu: "Jiang Xiao is very cautious, he is not 100% able to hold Qian Sanjin, so it is naturally impossible for him to let Qian Sanjin help him take care of the outside business." Don't look at Jiang Xiao, who has always been smiling and welcoming to people, what he thinks in his heart is completely opposite to what he has on the surface. But this time, he was in such a hurry to find someone to take over the business in this area of Bianguan, and he didn't even check our details, so it really didn't look like his style. You must be careful when you come into contact with him in the future. ”

Bai Xiaofu nodded, and said, "Big brother, don't worry too much, with Jiang Xiao's arrangement, I will stay at the border until the end of the war." So there weren't many opportunities to meet him. I have asked him not to get involved in this matter, on the pretext that you have to go home to take care of your mother. ”

Jiang Zhen nodded, if the other party was Jiang Xiao, he would definitely not be able to show up. It's just that I don't know if Jiang Xiao will investigate the details of the Bai family in detail in the future. But with Jiang Xiao's temperament, he will definitely investigate, but looking at Jiang Xiaofu's attitude towards Bai Xiaofu now, it seems that he doesn't take Bai Xiaofu in his eyes at all, and it seems that he is completely sure that he can control Bai Xiaofu, but it is unknown which one it is. Now they can only take one step at a time, and it's a big deal to go halfway and just slip away, as long as Jiang Xiao doesn't know their true identity, it can be regarded as a blessing.

Bai Xiaofu then said to Jiang Zhen: "Big brother, when I saw the fourth prince that day, I found that there was a person in that team that I knew before. ”

Jiang Zhen frowned and listened, nodded and let Bai Xiaofu continue.

Bai Xiaofu continued: "That person I met when I was still in the Department of Internal Affairs, his name is Xue Gui, and he participated in the selection of Concubine De with me at that time. It's just that he was brushed off at that time, but then I don't know what happened, he suddenly disappeared from the palace, and I didn't know him well at the time, so I didn't pay attention to where he went. "There is no need to say too much, Jiang Zhen has already understood everything he wants to express.

Jiang Zhen did not show excessive sadness, but behaved very flatly, as if this incident had happened to someone else. Seeing Bai Xiaofu looking at himself worriedly, Jiang Zhen smiled at Bai Xiaofu, "Don't look at me like this, I'm fine." As he spoke, he took Bai Xiaofu into his arms.

"Trust me, I'll let it go...... Trust me, okay? ”

Bai Xiaofu gently patted Jiang Zhen's back and comforted the injured child.

"Okay."

After a peaceful day, on the second night, Jiang Xiao called Bai Xiaofu and Qian Sanjin to the Second Prince's Mansion and prepared a large table of wine and food, but Jiang Xiao himself had something to leave the table. Bai Xiaofu sat on the chair and didn't eat anything, watching Qian Sanjin sitting on the side pour glass after glass of wine into his stomach, regardless of the fact that the place where he was staying now was not his own territory, and there was a bit of a broken jar.

Bai Xiaofu saw that Qian Sanjin's mood was very unstable in the past few days, and seeing that Qian Sanjin was about to get drunk, Bai Xiaofu was afraid that Qian Sanjin would make a move against Jiang Xiao when he was drunk, so he persuaded: "The shopkeeper is really, what to do with so much wine, and what to do if you get drunk later." As he spoke, he took the wine jug in front of Qian Sanjin away.

Qian Sanjin's face was desolate, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, "What will be the work...... I'm a puppet now! A dog on a leash! His eyes stared at the roof, and the hatred in his eyes seemed to burn through the roof, Bai Xiaofu hurriedly stepped forward and covered Qian Sanjin's mouth. Qian Sanjin was drunk, Bai Xiaofu didn't believe that Jiang Xiao just let them stay by themselves, there must be people who were watching their every move in a place where they couldn't see.

Just when Qian Sanjin waved Bai Xiaofu's hand away and was about to get drunk again, Jiang Xiao pushed the door in, Bai Xiaofu had to stretch out his foot and pretend to accidentally trip Qian Sanjin to the ground, and then embarrassedly stretched out his hand and apologized while helping Qian Sanjin who fell to the ground. Qian Sanjin was thrown like this, and the wine woke up halfway, and his consciousness also recovered. Seeing that Jiang Xiao just didn't say a word, he stood crookedly.

Jiang Xiao looked at Qian Sanjin's appearance, and said with a smile: "This king didn't know that the wine in his house was so delicious, and he let the shopkeeper Qian pour himself a drink and get drunk?" Later, I must pick two jars of wine for the money shopkeeper to take away. ”
