As soon as the parents and grandfather left, the Zhengqi Courtyard suddenly became a lot deserted, in fact, the three of them were not noisy people, but with them, Bai Poria always felt safe and happy no matter where she was.
Winter is approaching, snowflakes begin to fall in the sky, and sometimes Bai Poria sits alone by the window and looks at the white yard, which will feel extremely lonely. People like her, who are clothed and fed, and who are full of slaves, find it difficult to endure such boring waiting days, and I really don't understand how Wang Baochuan survived the eighteen years of guarding the cold kiln, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they are all bastard men!
Wang Baochuan didn't know that her husband had taken another princess outside, but she clearly knew that Hai Pumice was using her, not so much waiting for an answer, but waiting for a reason, a reason that could make her die, a reason that could make her leave without worry.
In the final analysis, she watched coldly from beginning to end, waiting for Hai Pumice to make a mistake, waiting for Hai Pumice to change her mind, waiting for the opportunity for her to break up with him openly, she only loved herself the most.
Such a self is really selfish and hateful! But her life is too short, and she can't bear too much responsibility and love, so that's it......
The days of the Righteous Courtyard were so calm that people could forget the passage of time, and in October, there was still no news from Hai Pum, but Bai Poria could still guess his general whereabouts from some recent events.
Wuyunmen, Feiqiong Palace and several other sects that secretly defected to the emperor that day, forcing Hai Pum Stone to come forward to fight a decisive battle with the Demon Sect were retaliated by the Demon Sect one after another, at first the rudder of these sects and the important people walking outside were attacked by the Demon Sect, the Demon Sect's methods were extremely bloody, and if they didn't do it, they didn't leave a living mouth every time they shot, and thousands of people had died in the bloody baptism of the Demon Sect since July.
Everyone in the martial arts alliance is in danger and wants to unite to fight together, but the people of the Demon Sect are very slippery, coming and going without a trace, and if they want to organize to attack the Demon Sect General Altar, Gan Sui's junior brother Cao Zi let out the words, the Demon Sect is ready to give up the General Altar at any time, but as long as any sect is involved in this matter, it is ready to accept the endless pursuit and revenge of the Demon Sect.
The various Baidao sects that were originally eager to try saw the situation of the Wuyunmen and other major sects suffering heavy losses, so they all stopped mentioning the matter of attacking the Demon Sect. The martial arts alliance has also discussed the election of a hero who has the strength to call on all sects to join hands and is highly respected as the acting alliance leader, and the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the former alliance leader Chidi Yu, but this Chidi Yu is not sick.
In addition, a few people who meet the requirements were found, but still no one was willing to come forward. In addition to martial arts, the brain is also very bright, and the five cloud gates and Feiqiong Palace joined forces that day, and used the power of the three princes to force and coax Bai Poria to admit that Hai Pum Shi died, and finally Bai Poria was disgraced The matter has spread throughout the martial arts, and everyone may not fully believe Bai Poria what Bai Poria said that Hai Pumice is not dead, but they have sniffed out some unusual flavors.
Bai Poria is young and a woman, and it can be said that she is in love for a while, but her grandfather is the famous Shoufu Bai Changshan, he actually let his only granddaughter stay in the Wulin League to dominate the righteous courtyard, and even the people of the three princes dare to drive away and offend at will, what does this mean?
Either the sea pumice stone is really not dead, or there is a powerful force behind the actions of supporting Bai Poria Cocos, the purpose is not clear for the time being, but this is enough.
At this time, for the sake of the name of "Acting Alliance Leader", is it worth fighting to the death with a madman-like demon demon? Bleeding and sweating in the end, most of them are making wedding clothes for others, and only fools will do it.
Wuyunmen and others were forced to have no choice but to close the rudders of each branch, recall all the disciples and important people scattered outside, guard the mountain gate, and wait and see what happens.
They now regret that their bowels are blue, and they hurriedly took refuge in the emperor that day, thinking that they would be able to soar from now on, but they did not expect that the benefits were not stained, but they caused such a catastrophe, and at this time, there was no news in the capital, and they did not give them shelter and help, leaving them to fend for themselves, facing the terrible revenge of the Demon Sect.
What is this?!
The Demon Sect's retaliation action was very clever and targeted, they only dealt with a few major sects that led the attack on the Demon Sect's main altar last time, and the rest of the White Dao Sect families did not commit any crimes, such a move made those wavering sect families even more determined to stand on the wall and never interfere.
Fortunately, while the Demon Sect was attacking the White Dao Sect on a large scale, there was also constant internal strife, and several uneasy helmsman elders frequently pulled their hind legs, and Wuyunmen and the others had a chance to breathe.
I don't know if it's because Hai Pushi is busy organizing the Demon Sect to take revenge on the dissidents in the Wulin Alliance behind the scenes, and has no time to continue to drug the emperor, the emperor's illness in the capital seems to have improved under the joint treatment of a large group of imperial doctors, and several princes in the capital go to the palace every day to offer courtesy, hoping to get the emperor's favor and become a legitimate successor.
Yang Heng seemed to be indifferent to the affairs in the capital, and stated in the recital that the disaster on both sides of the Ning'an River was serious, and he asked to stay in the area of the Ning'an River for disaster relief and rescue the poor people who were displaced, and at the same time organized people and craftsmen to prepare for the gradual rebuilding of the river embankment in the coming year, so as to avoid similar tragedies again.
The imperial court could not provide enough money and food for disaster relief, so Yang Heng took a light car to borrow money from the nearby states and counties that had not been affected by the famine, and his whereabouts were even more erratic than those of the demon sect, and the Qin messenger sent by the emperor to urge him to return to Beijing chased him for two or three months, but could not catch up, and the holy decree could not be delivered to him.
The emperor wanted to instruct the official to take advantage of his serious illness and Yang Heng refused to return to Beijing, impeaching him for selling his reputation and unfilial piety to his father, but Yang Heng sent a large number of people into Beijing with great fanfare to send a plea to the guilty recital, talking about the blood and tears of the people of Ning'an River, saying that he was eager to put on his wings and fly back to the capital to serve in front of his father's sickbed, but seeing that the people were in dire straits, thinking of his father's daily teachings, he should put all the people first, so he stayed in Ning'an River with tears and pain to continue the disaster relief work, in order to express his filial piety and apology to his father, he decided to burn incense every day. And recited and copied Buddhist scriptures a hundred times to pray for the health of the monarch.
The chapter was written sincerely, and secretly sent people to circulate it everywhere, so that everyone in the capital knew it, and the people praised Yang Heng for his benevolence and filial piety, and the emperor couldn't pull him down to force him to return to Beijing, and couldn't help but sigh that he had made too much mistake before, and even let this kid leave the capital, and now he wants to regain control of him, how easy is it to talk about it? !
The emperor thought about it during his illness, coupled with all kinds of movements on the rivers and lakes and what Yang Heng did, he already knew that he had fallen into the evil deeds of his two sons, but now he couldn't spare the energy to deal with the two unscrupulous sons.
Several princes who stayed in the capital looked at his throne one by one, and the small means were renovated day by day, taking advantage of his illness in bed and unable to govern in person, openly and secretly wooing ministers everywhere, the treasury was empty, the people's hearts were scattered, disasters and rebellions in various places broke out one after another, and the court could not even get the military salary for counterinsurgency, and the emperor listened to these disturbing bad news every day, and was irritable.
The ups and downs of his condition are not good, and the imperial doctors have tried their best to alleviate it, but they cannot cure it. This disease came strangely, and the emperor secretly suspected that it was a willing move, but he was obviously very careful to prevent it, and there were also experts in using poison in the Tsing Yi Guard, but no one saw that he had signs of poisoning.
On this day, the emperor's spirit was slightly better, and Wang Songhe, the leader of the Tsing Yi Weiliu, secretly entered the palace to inform the three princes that he had privately contacted Wuyunmen, Feiqiong Palace and several other sects in an attempt to scare away Bai Poria and failed to seek the throne of the leader of the martial arts alliance.
"Idiot! I gave birth to such a fool! The emperor listened to the hatred and scolding, but soon stretched his brows again, and laughed: "How did I forget this girl? To clean up those two rebels, it's enough to have this little girl in hand! ”
Wang Songhe hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does the emperor mean that the granddaughter of Bai Ge Lao?" ”
The emperor laughed too happily, his swollen body trembled violently, and suddenly he felt a stream of heat gushing out uncontrollably under his body, his pants and bedding were suddenly soaked, and a smell of urine came from him, and he actually urinated on the bed.
The emperor's face turned pale and turned to the color of pig liver, slapped the dragon bed hard, and hissed violently: "Get out!" Get lost! Get out of here! ”
Wang Songhe was so frightened that he hurriedly exited the dormitory before he could react to what had happened, and when he stood outside the door, he vaguely heard the emperor's angry scolding, and saw the eunuchs and palace maids hurriedly running in to serve, slowly recalling the scene just now, only to wake up to the fact that he was unlucky to bump into the emperor's most undignified scene, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He stood outside the dormitory for an unknown amount of time, the cold wind was blowing, and he only felt that his heart was about to freeze, and suddenly he saw Gonggong Lei come out and said with a wooden face: "The emperor has come to see the king." ”
Wang Songhe tried his best to adjust his facial expression, so that he looked respectful and serious, no different from the usual, gritted his teeth and re-entered the dormitory with Gonggong Lei.
The incense in the dormitory was much stronger, as if it was trying to cover up some indecent smell, the earth dragon burned extremely strongly, Wang Songhe only felt a burst of anger, and tried to keep calm and kneeling down.
There was a screen in front of him, and he couldn't see the emperor's figure, but only heard the emperor's voice cold and gloomy, as if coming from the Nine Hells: "You go and order Tsing Yi Wei to mobilize three thousand elites to secretly lurk in the headquarters of the Wulin League, and at all costs, you must capture that little girl to the capital." If this mission fails...... You know the rules of the Tsing Yi Guard, you few leaders of the Tsing Yi Wei don't have to come to see me anymore! ”
Wang Song and one didn't dare to say more, so they bowed down to their leaders and left.
The emperor was left gritting his teeth and sitting in the newly changed futon, and sneered: "Don't you two rebels like that girl very much? Let's see what you know what this girl will do when she is in my hands. ”
He has no other way, he needs a bargaining chip, a bargaining chip that can make two sons who are too powerful sit down with him to negotiate, push himself and others, he doesn't think that they will give up their long-prepared plan for the sake of a mere woman, but if he uses this bargaining chip well, maybe he can destroy the alliance between these two sons, so that he has a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Even if the two sons' affectionate attachment to Bai Poria is just a show for him, they must have some true feelings for her, which man can be completely tempted by such a stunning beauty?
The top priority is to let Xiao Mi detoxify and cure him for him, as for Xiao Liu...... If you can't say it, you're going to suffer some losses! The emperor deliberated on the details of the relationship between Yang Heng and Gan Sui by using Bai Poria to sow discord, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
Bai Poria didn't know that the emperor had hit her with the idea, and since her mother was pregnant, she had become more and more generous in doing good deeds - the Bodhisattva of the Jizo King had already shown sincerity, and she naturally wanted to give a little bit in return.
She wrote a letter asking Bai Shanglu to allocate the dividends that belonged to her family this year, part of which was used to purchase suitable families for the Bai family's slaves, part of which was used to mobilize manpower and materials to open a new training base nearby to settle and train these people, and the remaining part was handed over to the Jiqiao Hall to help ordinary victims on their behalf.
When Yue Laosi heard that Bai Lingbai gave them a large sum of money to help the poor people who were displaced by the flood and had no food and clothing, he was so moved that his eyes turned red, and he praised her bodhisattva heart again and again.
Bai Poria knows her own affairs, if it weren't for some purpose, she wouldn't care about other people's lives at all, Yue Laosi's words she felt blushing when she heard two more sentences, so she smiled and led the topic away: "Now the imperial court is sending disaster relief to His Royal Highness the Sixth, I know that Jiqiao Tang has always disliked dealing with officials in the court and the royal family, but since the purpose is the same, it is all for the purpose of helping the poor, and it is okay to cooperate occasionally." ”
Yue Laosi snorted: "How many of those people in the court, from top to bottom, will really take the people seriously? It's just a matter of fame! ”
Since he wants to make a name for himself, he naturally doesn't want to mess things up and discredit himself. It is impossible for the people of the Relief Hall to stay in the disaster area forever, and the victims of the disaster will be under the jurisdiction of the government in the future, and while there is a person who the local government will not dare to offend, you can secretly supervise, and if you find something unfair and unreasonable, you will explain it to His Highness the Sixth, and it will be much more convenient and secure for him to come forward and solve it once and for all. Bai Poria did not deny that she actually intended to help Yang Heng, and only hoped that he would really become a king in the future, and he could take more care of her relatives and friends, and not trouble her family at worst.
Yue Laosi knew that what Bai Poria said was reasonable, so he nodded and agreed.
Everything went on in an orderly manner, on the twenty-ninth day of October, the letter from the White Clown couple arrived, along with the letter from a few important people who were urgently recruited from Baili Mountain, a bird tamer who was good at trapping carrier pigeons and other birds to transmit birds, a craftsman who was good at copying various secret documents, and a secret agent of the Autumn Wind Pavilion who was good at deciphering the code.
Bai Guo didn't understand why Bai Poria had to mobilize the people just to steal the letter sent out secretly by the ghost mortar, since he knew that the sea pumice stone was not dead, and knew that he would appear sooner or later, what would he do to waste his energy to monitor the ghost mortar? Just ask her directly.
Bai Poria didn't know why she did this, but she had a gut feeling that the secret messages sent by the ghost in the middle of the night were not simple, and it seemed to be too cleverly related to some things, and she even suspected that those letters were probably not sent to Sea Pumice.
Especially recently, Bai Shao's covert surveillance has been suspicious more than once.
It is said that the ghost mortar and the ghost eye are both cronies sent by the sea pumice, and there is no reason for the ghost mortar to do everything alone, there must be something strange in this.
On the surface, Bai Poria only treated the three people as ordinary servants who delivered letters and let Bai Awu take them down to settle down, while she sat in the room and opened the family letters.
The letter was written by Bai Chou, saying that they were about to arrive at Baili Mountain, and the journey was safe, and they happened to meet several Bai family members who were going to the headquarters of the Wulin League, so they asked them to send the letter. It is mentioned that in the year when Lu Ying left Beiguan City, the barbarians seemed to be quite calm, probably because the battle before Lu Ying left shocked many barbarians, and many barbarian leaders who liked to harass and invade Beiguan City died in that sweep, and the clan was in chaos, and there was no time to come to Beiguan City for trouble.
Tongcai Yaxing has made a lot of money this year under the management of Bai Shanglu, and their family is the shopkeeper, and they are really ashamed to say that they are really ashamed to receive the rich wealth earned by Bai Shanglu every year, but they are very relieved that the cattle and horses selected by their daughter are very relieved, and Bai Shanglu will continue to work hard to make money for them no matter how hard and tired they are.
There is also that Daddy Bai Changshan looked at the gradually desolate scenery and the bandits and wanderers who often appeared, often shook his head and sighed, probably because he felt that there would be no good place in the border area, he recently entered the Yongzhou boundary where Beiguan City is located, and the towns he passed through on the road were more prosperous and lively than a one, so he was quite surprised, and he must be more surprised to see Baili Mountain and their fairyland.
Bai Chou's letter was written here, and there was a sense of complacency between the lines, and Bai Poria couldn't help but smile when she saw it...... She also misses that beautiful and warm home, and she doesn't know when she can go back?
When he got up early the next day, Bai Guo brought the secret agent of the Autumn Wind Pavilion who was good at cracking the code words with a solemn face, and Bai Shao ordered Bai Awu and the others to stay around Bai Poria's room without saying a word.
As soon as she saw this battle, Bai Poria knew that something was wrong.
The secret agent of the Autumn Wind Pavilion was named Bai Ying, he took out a small roll of paper from his arms and handed it to Bai Ling, saying: "This is a secret letter intercepted by Ge Man last night and sent in from outside, using the code language of the message from the Tsing Yi Guard, which means that they can arrive within three days, and the person who wants to receive the letter will clearly inform the guards in the Zhengqi Courtyard as soon as possible, and it is best to find out where the tokens of the Wulin League and the Demon Sect are hidden. Basil has copied the intact seal letter and let the carrier pigeon continue to carry the letter. ”
Ge Man is the name of the master who is good at trapping pigeons, and Basil is the master who is good at copying sealed secret letters.
Bai Guo continued: "Sister Bai Shao has seen clearly, the one who received the letter is the podophyllus!" Unexpectedly, she turned out to be the emperor's spy! ”
Bai Poria didn't expect them to dig up such a fierce news for the first time, just this letter was enough for them to know that the emperor was going to deal with her, the reason nineteen was related to the two guys Hai Pumice and Yang Heng, and it was really not an ordinary trouble to get involved with this kind of royal child!
Now that the danger is imminent, according to the news he has received these days, it is speculated that the emperor will think of dealing with her thousands of miles away, there are only two reasons, one is that he has no other way, and the other is that he is seriously ill, and the time does not allow him to continue to fight with Yang Heng and Hai Pushi.
Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that the emperor's attack this time will be amazing, and he will never give up until the goal is achieved. Although the location of the Zhengqi Courtyard is dangerous, with the more than fifty elite guards of the Bai family here, if you can't defend it, it won't be a problem to hold it for three or five days.
During this period of time, it was enough for people in the rivers and lakes near the Wulin League to come to help, but the damage of these guards of the Bai family was inevitable, and many people could die tragically in this battle, which was a loss that Bai Poria was never willing to bear.
From the tone of that secret letter, it seemed that the emperor didn't want to come openly, otherwise he wouldn't say anything like the inside and the outside, as long as he sent a messenger to announce the decree to order her to enter Beijing. However, if she wants to be the daughter of a minister's family, it is difficult for the emperor to find an open and honest reason to summon her to Beijing alone, once she does this, it will attract a lot of attention, and it will be inconvenient for the emperor to use her to do something.
The best way to do this is, of course, to send someone to take her captive, and even if she disappears or even dies, it will not damage the emperor's reputation.
What now? The easiest way is to inform the people of the Wulin League to prepare in advance, since the emperor is unwilling to publicly announce the summons of her to Beijing, the person sent must also hide the identity of the Tsing Yi Wei, as long as she claims to be a demon of the Demon Sect and intends to raid the Wulin League, then she can take her guards to stay on the Star Picking Ridge and watch the people of the Wulin League close the door and beat the dog.
But what about after that?
She didn't think that the emperor would give up, and that endless troubles would follow...... Her time is precious, she doesn't want to waste dealing with these troubles and stupidly waiting for the sea pumice stone to appear, take advantage of this time, completely cut off!
It's best to be able to force the sea pumice out of the sea, if not, if he still wants to use her completely...... Since he is ruthless, don't blame her for being unjust!
Just in the cellar of a small restaurant in Ye Cheng, the other two people were also discussing how to deal with the big attack of Tsing Yi Wei.
"Senior brother, did you already know that there was a problem with the ghost mortar, so you deliberately left her with the little sister-in-law?" Purple grass sat cross-legged on the high rice bags and asked with a disagreeing expression.
"So what?" Hai Pumice casually played with the small white wooden card and black jade seal in his hand, these two small things were the tokens of the Martial Arts League and the Demon Sect.
"Have you ever wondered what you would do if the Emperor's people really caught her?" There was a little anger in the look of the purple grass.
"Didn't I tell you earlier, the guards around her are not weak in martial arts, and they are desperate for her, and they will definitely not let her fall into the hands of others so easily. And as long as Lian Jiang and the others are mixed with the Tsing Yi Wei and kill the damned people of the Wulin League, I will take someone to save them. The terrain of Star Picking Ridge is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but for a while, she will not have an accident. Hai Pumice stuffed the two tokens into his arms casually, and his tone was a little more irritable, and he didn't know whether to convince the comfrey or himself.
