Chapter 29: Concubines only
"Actually...... There are other things I haven't said. "The two people in front of me are the only ones who can help themselves, if they hide something, in the end, when they know the truth, I'm afraid it's too late to remedy it. So it's going to be embarrassing now, but let's make things clear first.
As if he had expected this, the scribe smiled, "Since we have reached this point, Childe will say that it is okay, we will do our best to help Childe!" ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Yan was like taking a reassuring pill, and said slowly, "That day...... I was in Xiaorong Town, and when I met those two sisters, I was just attracted by the sister's unparalleled appearance. Later, the officers and soldiers made things difficult for that sister, and I really wanted to be a hero to save the United States. I don't want to, that sister actually took out a mountain stone, and taught an officer and soldier a lesson, and stopped everyone. ”
"What, Panshan Stone?" Shangguantang and the scribes were all taken aback, in disbelief, "That mountain stone is the treasure of our Nanzhao, why did it fall into the hands of a woman?" ”
"I was also very curious at the time, at first, I thought they were the daughters of our family, but listening to the accent, they were originally from Bac Ninh, and my sister also admitted that they were from Bac Ninh. Later, I thought back that the stone I saw that day was shaped like an antelope, and I thought that the whole Nanzhao had a mountain stone, and its shape was like an antelope, so there was only that old stubborn, Xin Xiang! That old bastard participated in my book in front of the emperor last time, so I couldn't hold my head up in front of my father, and I have to settle this account with him. So I designed, planning to steal the Panshan Stone, and then let Xin Xiang hand over the Panshan Stone in front of the emperor, if he can't hand it over, isn't it a big crime to bully the king! It's just that for some reason, I have already gotten the Panshan Stone, but I was put in prison. ”
After saying this, Shangguan Yan lowered his head in annoyance. Suddenly, he felt an eerie gaze staring at him, and while he was chilling, he looked up in that direction, but all he saw was darkness. Shangguan Yan couldn't help but feel furious in his heart, and hurriedly turned his gaze.
At the same time that Shangguan Yan staggered his gaze, Baili Lan loosened the shackles of Baili Jun, and at the same time, his eyes revealed reproach. If it hadn't been for Baili Lan pulling her just now, I'm afraid that the current Baili Jun would have already rushed over and scolded the negative person.
The palms of his hands were clenched hard, Baili Jun's eyes were red, and his always gentle eyes flashed with a cruel aura. Since she was sensible, she has always been forbearing, no matter what happens, no matter how difficult the predicament is, she secretly tells herself that as long as she grits her teeth and endures the past, sooner or later she will welcome the sunny day. But now, the man she pinned her hopes on was actually saying that he was using himself at all! This kind of realization made Baili Jun almost want to kill that man! She no longer had an excuse to endure it, her life had been ruined by that man, and there would be no more sunny days...... Shangguan Yan, who caused such a result, why can he still be free alone! will definitely make him pay a hundredfold, a thousand times the price!
Feeling Baili Jun's cold breath, Bai Lilan clenched her fists, and her eyes were as bright as stars in the dark, as if they could give people silent comfort. No matter how big the matter is, in these eyes, it is fleeting and fleeting.
The resentment gradually subsided, Bai Lilan reached out and patted the back of her hand, the two sisters looked at each other calmly, and then turned their heads and continued to look in the direction of Shangguan Yan.
As if sensing the seriousness of the problem, the scribe frowned and analyzed it seriously, "Xin Xiang has always been cautious in doing things, and he will not hand over such an important thing to others for no reason, and he is also a woman in Bac Ninh. There are only two possibilities for this. One is that the woman pretended to be in the name of Panshan Stone and did evil in Nanzhao. If this is the case, although he can't catch Xin Xiang with any tricks, Gongzi will definitely be safe and sound, after all, they are two thieves, and turning them out is to eliminate harm for Nanzhao. But if it was really Xin Xiang who granted them the Panshan Stone, this matter would not be simple. We have to find out why Xin Xiang gave the treasure that was more precious than his life to the pair of sisters, whether it was for public or private. And you can't rashly report this matter to the emperor, if the emperor also knows about this matter, and it is secretly handed over to Xin Xiang to deal with, and now it is made public by us, I am afraid that it will be angered. ”
"I can't wait for this matter, this case will be heard in public tomorrow, and my reputation will be completely ruined by then!" Shangguan Yan's face was distorted, obviously he had lost his patience, "The investigation of Xin Xiang's matter can be postponed, but I want to leave here now!" Third uncle, with your ability, you will definitely be able to take me out first! You should feel sorry for your own nephew, take me away now! ”
Before Shangguantang could speak, the scribe preemptively stopped him, "No! If we use power to forcibly take away the son, no matter whether we are justified or not, I am afraid that we will have to settle the truth. Such an outcome is very unfavorable for us. If you want your son to be fine, you must leave the government openly. As long as we can turn things around, eliminate the unfavorable factors for Childe, and prove that Childe is not guilty and not an adulterer, then Childe will be found not guilty. As for the Panshan Stone, that Lord Sun doesn't know the details, and the pair of sisters may not tell the truth, so we don't need to consider the Panshan Stone. ”
"That makes sense!" Shangguantang nodded approvingly and said, "Actually, the question is not as complicated as we thought. It's just two women, I'll let people intimidate and intimidate for a while, and we must have said whatever we want her to say! ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Yan smiled bitterly and said, "If only it were that simple, just find a few people who know martial arts, and you can snatch Panshan Shiqiang." But that sister is so ruthless in martial arts, ruthless in her methods, she does not lose to men at all, and there are several unfathomable masters around her, and the spies I sent out have been silently eliminated by them. As for what happened today, it must have something to do with Baililan! ”
"What, Baililan!?" The scribe's eyes widened in shock, and he said with a little panic, "The sister mentioned by Childe is Beining Baili Lan?" ”
The scribe has always been unfazed and calm, which even Shangguan Yan can't do, and the national teacher also told him to humbly ask the scribe for more. But now, the scribe's eyes widened, and he looked like he was about to open his mouth and swallow eggs.
"What, is there any evasion of the name Baili Lan?"
The scribe took a deep breath and said slowly, "The surname Baili is also considered a big surname in Bac Ninh. And among the daughters, the one called Baili Lan should only be the daughter of the mighty general, Princess Qianchen, Bai Lilan! ”
"The daughter of a mighty general? Is that the general of Bac Ninh who died on the battlefield? "Shangguantang has naturally heard of this enemy general who gave Nanzhao a headache. It's just that the name of the mighty general has been hidden for many years, and it was suddenly turned out at this moment, which makes people confused and a little frightened.
"That's right. Baili Lan is a strange woman, and she is also a household name in Bac Ninh. Although he was treated badly by Prince Chen when he first married into the palace, he relied on his wisdom and wisdom to turn the corner many times, and also led the retrial of Lord Qiu's unjust case and rescued the Qiu brothers and sisters. According to rumors, Baili Lan also hired one of the four princes, Wuhua Gongzi as his shopkeeper and ran Xiangkelai. Moreover, Prince Chen was able to ascend to the throne of the crown prince, and Baili Lan contributed a lot. But what is puzzling is that Bai Lilan, who should have won the position of the crown princess, took the initiative to give up, and asked the emperor to decree that the prince of Beining should write a letter of resignation, and let Bai Lilan smile proudly. Baili Lan is really a strange woman! ”
After hearing this, Bai Lilan, who was hiding in the shadows, curled the corners of his mouth, and said in his heart that this scribe knew himself well.
"Hmph, after all, it's just a divorced woman, what's there to be afraid of? And this is not Bac Ninh, our people in Nanzhao will not let a woman ride on their heads! Shangguantang shouted loudly, his face was full of indifference, and he was foaming at the mouth.
Such a reckless attitude made the scribe secretly disdainful, but he hid the contempt in his eyes well, and covered it with a gentle and kind smile, and said earnestly, "Your Excellency, this is too early. Baili Lan's appearance in Nanzhao must not be accidental, and it is not accidental that Xin Xiang and Bai Li Lan are linked together. Today's son was arrested and imprisoned, it won't be as simple as it seems! Let's take a moment and see how they move tomorrow. Moreover, Xia Guan believes that the important witness in this case is the victim girl, if she can speak to her son, the situation will change greatly! ”
These words reminded Shangguan Yan, and his eyes lit up, as if he saw hope, "Yes, why didn't I expect it!" Bailijun, that stupid woman, he will listen to whatever I say. And I also planned to give her a name and accept her as a concubine, what if she slept early? It's just to be happy with my husband! Shangguan Yan seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, his face relaxed suddenly, and even his tone became brisk, "Third uncle, you have a lot of capable people under your command, help me find someone who is good at light skills, bring Baili Jun to me, I will explain her carefully, even if the surname Sun wants to embarrass us, the victim will take the initiative to say that she is voluntary, who can say more?" ”
Shangguan Yan said it easily, but Baili Jun heard it with a heartbreak.
It turned out that he was just a stupid woman in his heart, and he never thought of marrying himself as his wife, and he did so much for him, just a mere concubine!
If Baili Jun's heart was full of hatred just now, now she just wants to let Shangguan Yan taste the bitter fruits of deceiving herself at all costs!
Feeling that he had come to this trip today and had already gotten the desired result, Baili Lan made a gesture behind him, and a servant came over angrily and said angrily to Sister Bai Lilan, "These prisoners are going to be interrogated overnight, you quickly open the door and send them out from behind!" ”
Listening to the "bang" of the chains, someone deliberately made a movement in the dark, and the Baili Lan sisters quietly left the cell by means of the darkness. Outside the cell, Bai Lilan saw Mrs. Sun who had been waiting for her, and smiled at her, "I really thank Mrs. for her help today, and I will definitely come to the door to thank you another day." ”
