Chapter 22: Li Ling
Chu Qing saluted and replied: "Exactly." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Bai Hou nodded to Chu Qing with satisfaction, and laughed in a steady voice: "Hehehehehe, good boy!" As he spoke, he took out a wooden box from the dark compartment on the side of the short couch, gently placed it on the table, pressed a certain place in the box, and with a click, the lid of the box opened by itself. Bai Hou stretched out his huge fat hand full of calluses, pinched out a small jade bottle from the box, put it lightly on the bookcase, and motioned for the little Hou Ye to come and take it.
The little marquis stepped forward and took the jade bottle in his hand, and smiled at Bai Hou Hanhan: "Thank you, father!" turned around and held the small jade bottle to Chu Qing and said: "Senior brother, this is my family's cherished elixir, come, I'll put it on you." ”
Chu Qing's heart warmed, and he saluted Bai Hou: "Thank you, uncle." Then he said to the little marquis: "Thank you, senior brother." ”
The little marquis smiled: "What is polite to senior brother!"
Water has already been prepared on the side, cloth towels, bandages, bamboo boards and other materials. The little marquis asked Chu Qing to sit on the soft mat in front of the window, and he knelt down to help Chu Qing remove the cloth tied to the wound, clean it, wipe it clean, and open the cork of the small jade bottle, it was fragrant, and it was a turquoise liquid, the little marquis quickly lifted the bottle, poured a drop lightly on Chu Qing's wound, and then quickly plugged the cork, and gently put the small jade bottle on the ground.
The drop of elixir dropped on Chu Qing's wound, and immediately melted into Chu Qing's blood, Chu Qing only felt that his whole arm was cool for a while, and the wound suddenly had a lot of aura, and together with his own aura, the wound was quickly repaired, and there was a trace of itching.
After dripping with the elixir, the little marquis took the bandage and bamboo board and tied them to Chu Qing.
When the little marquis was treating Chu Qing's wounds, Bai Hou was drinking while watching. He did not use the copper bottle on the bookcase to drink, but reached out and took a large ceramic bowl from the wooden shelf next to the short couch, and scooped a few scoops of wine from the wine urn under the bookcase, scooped a full bowl, drank it all, smacked his mouth, and then scooped a full bowl of wine. The small copper bottle on his bookcase looked like an ornament.
Bai Hou saw that the little marquis had dealt with Chu Qing almost, so he said, "Na'er, who do you think did tonight?"
"The child doesn't know. The little marquis tied the last knot to Chu Qing, got up and said to Bai Hou: "Tonight's incident came inexplicably, and the planning was not thorough, as if it was a temporary idea. However, the use of a pawn who had already deceived me into trusting me seemed to have been premeditated. This ......" The little marquis frowned, very puzzled in his heart.
Bai Hou drank a bowl of wine, smacked his mouth, continued to scoop the wine for himself, and said, "What does this mean?"
"Description...... What's the reason for disrupting their plans and wanting to kill me in advance!" said the little marquis, after some thought.
Bai Hou laughed: "Son, what's the use of them putting you to death?"
When the little marquis heard this, he was stunned for a moment, suddenly looked up at his father, then turned his head to look at Chu Qing, and said in surprise: "What does my father mean...... Didn't they come for me?!They came for Senior Brother Chu?!"
When Chu Qing heard this, he was stunned and said, "What? I? What are you kidding!"
Bai Hou raised his head and laughed: "That's right!"
Chu Qing looked dazed: "I didn't recruit anyone or provoke anyone, how could anyone come to kill me?"
Bai Hou looked at Chu Qing with deep meaning, and said: "Virtuous nephew, don't you know the current form of Yingdu! Now, the king is old and sick in bed, but he has not established a prince for a long time, and several princes will inevitably have some thoughts. ”
Chu Qing listened to Bai Hou say slowly, and was very puzzled in his heart, even so, no matter how many princes were ready to move, what did it have to do with themselves, a flat-headed little commoner?
Bai Hou continued: "Although my Baihou Mansion has always maintained neutrality, several princes have never given up the idea of winning over this marquis!" Bai Hou took a sip of wine and said with emotion, "Good old man, it's not easy to do, at this time, no one chooses, in fact, everyone is offended! Although I didn't choose, the princes were suspicious of each other and attacked each other, and the third prince and the fifth prince successively claimed to have my support! This is forcing me into the water!"
Chu Qing was stunned when he heard this: "Ah? can you still do this?!"
Bai Hou smiled: "Why can't it?" shook his head and sighed, "The ones who can come up with this idea are none other than Li Ling under the Third Prince and Dou Shi under the Fifth Prince! The wisdom of these two young people is no worse than some old foxes in the court." However, although Dou Shi is insidious and resourceful, he is not as ruthless as Li Ling. So the idea of killing you was eighty percent from Li Ling. ”
Chu Qing asked, "But why did he kill me?"
Bai Hou laughed and said, "Because you are on the ship of my Bai Hou Mansion, you are such a young man with a talent for cultivating truths, you are a rare talent wherever you go! As soon as you come into contact with the aura, you will immediately be promoted to the middle stage of qi cultivation! Who can guarantee what level you will rise to after you start cultivating? The current situation, what will happen, no one can predict! Your appearance is an extremely unstable factor for them, and it may disrupt many people's plans! Therefore, some people want to nip you in the bud!"
The little marquis patted Chu Qing's shoulder: "It's okay, junior brother, I will be responsible for you, hehehe!"
Chu Qing's head was full of black lines, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Is this how you people in the city live...... That, that Li Ling is so desperate? I didn't recruit him, I didn't mess with him. ”
Bai Hou waved his hand, drank wine and said: "Virtuous nephew, people's hearts are sinister, ordinary people still calculate with each other, not to mention matters involving the throne? Li Ling is meticulous and ruthless, he belongs to the kind of person who would rather kill by mistake than let go! Even if a bird comes to his door, he thinks that the bird can peck at his face, and he must get rid of that little bird as soon as possible!"
Chu Qing said: "Isn't this victim paranoia!"
Bai Hou was puzzled: "What is the disease?"
Chu Qingdao: "It's just a mental illness, uh, it's a demon!"
Bai Hou agreed: "Indeed. But it's this kind of crazy demon person, the least aggressive! I don't know what the third prince thinks, he would use this kind of person, although it seems that he has achieved some advantages at present, but the reputation in the market is already very bad!"
The little marquis answered: "The third prince is not an unreasonable person, since he dares to use Li Ling, he must still have hole cards in his hand!"
Bai Hou said: "Let's wait and see." ”
Someone outside the door suddenly shouted, "Report!"
Bai Hou raised his voice and said, "Come in." ”
A black-clothed guard pushed the door in, approached and clasped his fists and saluted, "Master Hou!"
The black-clothed guard glanced at Chu Qing, and then looked at Bai Hou.
Bai Hou casually scooped wine into the pottery bowl with a wine scoop, and said casually: "Speak." ”
The guard clenched his fists and said, "Master Hou, Bai Liu has found it!"
