Chapter 157: Arriving at the county seat
Seeing that the situation was serious, the Bai family's family didn't dare to look at the excitement.
The maids dispersed, and the family members all went out to inquire about Song Wan's news.
Qingcheng is not big, and the Bai family has a lot of prestige here, and it didn't take long for someone to tell him that he seemed to see a woman who looked like Song Wan in the medical hall in the south of the city.
After getting the news, the Bai family housekeeper immediately led a few family members to the medical hall.
"Pavilion Master, have you ever seen a woman dressed like this, neither tall nor short, thin?"
Hearing the butler's description, the owner of the medical hall immediately understood.
"Oh! You're talking about the woman you just sent over, right? She was still dizzy, and she lay down in it."
The butler's eyes lit up, and he immediately rushed in with a few people.
Sure enough, Song Wan was lying inside, unconscious.
"Go, pick her up and take her away."
But the housekeeper didn't expect that Song Wan was also guarding two people behind her.
Seeing that the other party was menacing, they also stood up and grabbed the saber at their waists.
"Who are you? Who are you going to take away?"
The housekeeper of the Bai family didn't notice these two people just now, and when he saw that the other party didn't let Song Wan take away, he had some doubts.
What is the relationship between these two people and Song Wan.
"I want to ask who you are? I am the housekeeper of the Bai family, this woman committed an accident in the Bai family and escaped, we are going to bring her back, and please don't stop you."
The guards of the Bai family stepped forward, but before they could get in front of Song Wan, they saw the two people bypassing the bed where Song Wan was lying and blocking in front of her, and even pulled the knife out of the scabbard slightly.
"We have been ordered by the young master to protect her here and heal her injuries, and we will forgive her fate!"
At this moment, the atmosphere in the medical hall became tense.
The housekeeper of the Bai family didn't expect someone to blatantly disobey them, and his expression became unfriendly.
"These two brothers, this woman does have an enmity with our Bai family, if you two insist on blocking it, that is, making enemies of the Bai family, then we can only break through!"
As soon as the words fell, the Bai family's guards also pulled out their knives, and the tip of the knife was aimed at the two people.
I thought that this intimidation would have an effect, but who knew that the two people didn't take it to heart at all.
One of them sneered and sneered:
"The little Bai family, when will you learn to be a fox and a tiger? Hurry up, don't force us to do it."
The housekeeper of the Bai family was humiliated like this, and he was already angry.
But seeing that the other party was so arrogant, he didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of really offending some big person.
"What is the identity of the two of you, who look down on our Bai family so much?"
When the Bai family housekeeper asked this, the two couldn't help laughing, and the remaining person took out the token from his waist and looked at them playfully.
"Come and see what this is, and then think about whether or not to break in."
The butler leaned over and looked at it.
"Fu"
This is the token of the Fu family?
Could it be that these two people turned out to be Fu Ru'an's people?
Thinking of the powerful forces behind the Fu family, the housekeeper immediately calmed down.
Their Bai family can't go head-to-head with the Fu family, otherwise they will be asking for hardship.
"I didn't expect the two to be the guards of the Fu family, since that's the case, then I'll go back and tell Mrs. Bai to see how this matter is resolved."
After speaking, he immediately gave the guards behind him a look, and several of them quickly retreated.
Back at the Bai Mansion, the housekeeper quickly told Mrs. Bai about the matter.
After hearing this, Madame Bai was very stunned.
When did Song Wan have a relationship with the Fu family?
If she has a relationship with the Fu family, then why come to herself?
Also, how long has she been out of the house, why did she get injured and go to the hospital?
Mrs. Bai was full of doubts in her heart, but what she was most worried about was that if Song Wan had the Fu Mansion to rely on, she was afraid that herself, her daughter, and the people in the county town would not be able to bring Song Wan back.
"Quick, get pen and paper."
Madame Bai planned to write another letter back and ask her daughter how to deal with this matter.
But at this moment, a report suddenly came from the door.
"Madame Bai, there is a man outside the door, with a few entourages, saying that he is from the county town of Barbarian and wants to see you."
Things happened one after another, which caught Madame Bai off guard.
"Who? Bring him in."
Madame Bai put down the pen in her hand and went to meet the visitor first.
The master stood in the hall and saw Madame Bai coming, and saluted.
"Madam Bai, the master in Xia Manyi County is here to take Song Wan away. This is Mrs. Wu's letter, please read it."
As he spoke, the master took out a letter from his bosom and handed it over.
But Madame Bai didn't take it, but sighed faintly.
"Master, it's unfortunate that you're here."
"What does that mean?"
The master looked at Madame Bai's sad expression in confusion, and the hand holding the letter tightened invisibly.
"Just an hour ago, Song Wan escaped."
"What!"
The master was shocked, and hurriedly asked:
"Did you send someone to find it?"
"It's sent, it's just ......"
Seeing that Mrs. Bai wanted to speak and stopped, the master also frowned:
"What the hell is going on?"
"I don't know why, Song Wan was injured outside, and now she is in the hospital, we found her, but we were stopped by the Fu family's people and didn't let us take it away."
"Fu family!?"
Now the master was even more surprised.
He knew in his heart that the Fu family and Ye Zhen were good friends, especially Fu Ru'an, who was Ye Zhen's big backer.
In this case, how could the Fu family shield Song Wan?
There must be some misunderstanding here.
"No, that's unlikely. The Fu family, the Fu family doesn't know Song Wan at all, and it's impossible to protect her."
The butler on the side stepped forward and said:
"Master, you don't know something. When the villain just took someone to the hospital to bring Song Wan back, the two even drew knives against each other, which shows that the relationship is not ordinary!"
"This ......"
The master was extremely embarrassed.
Now people can't take it away, but I've come here, how can I explain this?
Madame Bai naturally saw his entanglement, and took the initiative to say:
"Master, you and someone are now living in our Baifu for a few days, and I will send someone to inquire about the situation in the next few days, and the Fu family will find out, and I will give you an explanation when the time comes."
The master thought about it and sighed.
At the moment, he doesn't have any special solutions, so he can only do this.
He arched his hand and said:
"Then it's going to be a trouble for the White Lady!"
But the master didn't know that during this time, Fu Ru'an and Jiangnan County Shou had already returned to Fu's house.
The two did not rest, but changed carriages, and at this moment they had already set off for the county seat of Barbarian.
The county seat of Manyi is not far from Qingcheng, and it can be reached in more than an hour by carriage.
By the time the master had lunch at the Bai family, the Fu family and the two of them were only more than ten miles away from the county seat of Manyi.
"Lord Prefectural Commander, Lord Prefectural Commander is almost outside the city gate!"
Hearing that the deputy general hurriedly came to report, the county commander was taken aback.
He heard that the Fu family was coming to the county seat today, but it was just lunch time, and he originally thought that he would arrive in the evening.
It came too suddenly, didn't it?
But now there is so much control.
The county commander panicked and ordered the maid to come and dress himself, and ordered his subordinates to go to Wangyue Tower to tell Fu Heng to prepare the dishes as soon as possible.
Subsequently, when the county order was dressed neatly, he immediately summoned his subordinates to catch the fast and the officials, but when he glanced around, he sent it
Now the master is not there.
"Where's the master?"
The crowd pondered for a long time, but they didn't know where he was going.
The prefectural order was a little displeased, but it didn't happen.
Nothing is more important now than greeting the county guard.
"That's it, leave him alone, everyone and I will immediately go outside the city gate to meet the county guard."
Not long after, the county magistrate led a group of people to meet outside the city gate.
As soon as their line was lined up, they saw the official road in the distance dusty, followed by the sound of footsteps, and finally saw a convoy coming from a distance.
This is naturally the honor guard of the county guard.
The prefectural order can be regarded as an eye-opener.
He was shocked and envious as he watched the mighty procession slowly move towards him.
He thought that it would be good if one day he could be such a big official and have such a style.
The county magistrate swallowed greedily, thinking about the silver taels confiscated from the county yahoutang.
When he gives some of these silver taels to Lord County Guard, Lord County Master will definitely recommend himself, and the day when he will be on the rise is not far off!
In a state of anxiety, Fu Ru'an and the county guard were sitting in a carriage outside the city gate, and the county commander immediately dismounted and hurried to the car window.
"See Lord County Guard, Young Master Fu."
He saluted respectfully and flattered:
"The contemptible person is the county commander of this barbarian county, and I heard that the county guard came to inspect, so I specially waited here."
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the county guard sat upright in his chair, raised his eyes slightly, and swept it.
Seeing the county magistrate's face full of smiles and an obscene appearance, his good feelings suddenly decreased greatly.
He lowered the curtain and said coldly:
"Got it."
Faced with such a cold attitude, the county magistrate was very frightened, and he didn't know what he had done wrong.
He hurriedly said:
"My lord, the lower officials set up a banquet in the Moon Tower in the city, and invited the two of them to appreciate their faces."
Fu Ru'an coughed lightly and said:
"Okay. Lead the way."
"Okay. This will open the way for the two adults."
After receiving the order, the county commander went to the front, mounted a big horse, and led the mighty team into the city.
It's just that Fu Ru'an and the county guard don't have a very good impression of the county order.
is willing to go to the banquet with a face, just to call Ye Zhen and them over.
Soon, the group settled in the Moon Tower.
Fu Heng heard that Fu Ru'an had come back with the county guard, and hurriedly greeted him in front of the door.
He diligently went up to help Fu Ru'an get out of the carriage, and respectfully saluted the county guard.
In order to welcome these two people today, his Mochizuki Tower was cleared for a day and did not accept any other guests.
Lord County Shou stepped out of the carriage, looked at the gorgeous Moon Tower in front of him, and glanced at Fu Ru'an approvingly.
"Uncle, please first."
The county guard was not polite, so Fu Heng led the way and walked at the front of the team.
The place where a few people ate was naturally the best private room in Mochizuki Tower, but the county guard walked into the room and looked empty inside, but his expression was a little displeased.
This can frighten the county magistrate.
The county commander only dared to ask Fu Ru'an in a whisper:
"Young Master Fu, is there anything dissatisfied?"
Fu Ruan also frowned and reprimanded:
"Didn't I ask Fu Heng to tell you at the time? Lord County Guard has come here to visit Mrs. Xie this time, why didn't you call the two of them?"
The county commander suddenly came to his senses, and immediately ordered his subordinates to call Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu to the banquet.
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door of the private room.
The county commander hurried over to open the door, and the people who came were Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu.
"Grass people Xie Yunshu, folk women Ye Zhen, see Lord County Guard, Lord Fu, Lord County Commander."
Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu were neither humble nor arrogant, and they faced the three of them politely
Saluted.
Seeing the two of them coming, the county keeper, who had a straight face, finally smiled.
"You two, please be seated."
Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu also sat down one after another.
The county guard looked at their breezy gentlemanly demeanor, and then looked at the county order who had been nodding to himself on the side, which was really immediate.
This is this short meeting, and the county guard looks down on the two of them in his heart.
