Bai Fengzhan pondered for a long time, but he didn't come up with a reason, he pinched the bridge of his nose, relieved his fatigue, and asked the old steward of the Bai family beside him casually: "Except for the Song family, what has happened to the other families recently?" ”

The steward of the Bai family closed the roster of the above meeting, and replied: "Master Hui, except for the kid from the hundred families, there is no change in the other families. ”

"Huh?"

Bai Fengzhan opened his cloudy eyes and raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong with that kid?" Let's hear it. ”

The Bai family steward said: "I heard from the people that Bai Zihuan and his sister were released back by the Youzhou Prefecture last night. ”

Bai Fengzhan frowned, this is really not valuable news, what about the descendants of the hundred families, it has nothing to do with him, as for the hundred families colluding with Yizhou to rescue the assassin, if the person from the hundred families is the father of the old man Baijingxiao or Bai Zihuan, the sinister Bai Shixiang colluded with Yizhou, Bai Fengzhan has reason to believe it, but let him believe that it is a child less than twenty who is secretly manipulating all this......

Bai Fengzhan shook his head, no one would believe this kind of thing.

Bai Shaohan heard that Bai Zihuan was released, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, and he muttered: "Count their fate." ”

"What are you talking about?" Bai Fengzhan raised his eyes and saw Bai Shaohan's mouth moving, and asked out loud.

Bai Shaohan shrank his neck and said stiffly: "I said that Baizi Huanfu has a big life, and it's okay to collude with the dead soldiers in Yizhou to rob prisoners."

"Who said that the Yizhou where the hundred children are connected?"

Bai Shaohan raised his head and said curiously: "Didn't you say in the hall that day that there were major suspicions in the hundred families?" ”

"Do you have paste in your head? How old is that Bai Zihuan! ”

Bai Fengzhan slapped the table next to him angrily, what he said that day was just rhetoric, and all the families listened to it as a joke, but they didn't know that their own disciples actually believed it.

Bai Shaohan didn't know what to do, he was very aggrieved, he didn't dare to talk back, and then he threw his anger on Bai Zihuan, and said angrily: "Uncle, since we came to Youzhou to meet these family traitors, nothing good has happened, first Bai Zihuan's mad dog couldn't help but say that he was fighting with us, and then Bai Ziye made a fuss in the courtyard of the Liu family, and then the assassination of Lord Yuyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the assassin came to Yizhou......"

"Wait a minute."

Bai Fengzhan was about to reprimand, but when he heard this, he suddenly perked up, and he said sharply: "Say it again!" ”

Bai Shaohan was a little afraid, he didn't know where he had said the wrong thing, which made his uncle unhappy, he said in a low voice: "First Bai Zihuan ......"

"Say the back!"

"And then that Bai Ziye ......"

"Stop!"

"Hehe, hahahahaha."

Bai Fengzhan suddenly laughed nervously.

Seeing that his parents were shocked, Bai Shaohan and several other Bai family children looked at each other, they were a little confused, and they didn't know what their parents were crazy about today.

Bai Fengzhan waved his hand with a smile and said to everyone: "Go down, prepare in the afternoon, and go to the banquet with me in the evening." ”

When the young children went down, the old steward of the Bai family asked curiously, "Why is the master laughing?" ”

Bai Fengzhan smiled and groaned: "You once said that last night, Bai Zihuan and his sister were personally sent back by the Youzhou general, is this true?" ”

The Bai family steward was puzzled: "Exactly, is there an article here?" ”

"Of course!"

Bai Fengzhan raised three fingers: "Have you forgotten that the three of the hundred families were arrested!" ”

The steward of the Bai family is also a good person, and instantly understood what Bai Fengzhan meant, and the old man said incredulously: "You mean that the son of the Bai family called Bai Ziye......"

Bai Fengzhan snorted: "The three members of the hundred families were originally detained because they were suspected of colluding with the Dongyi dead soldiers who infiltrated Youzhou, but after the arraignment, the Mengzhou Mansion only released two of them, and only kept the Baiziye, what does it mean?" ”

The steward of the Bai family swallowed his saliva and said in horror: "Are you saying that the recent events have something to do with that young man?" But at such a young age, does that young man really have such great ability? ”

Bai Fengzhan suddenly remembered the words that reprimanded Bai Shaohan at that time, and couldn't help but blush, he coughed and hid his embarrassment.

The steward of the Bai family also realized his gaffe, and immediately bowed his head and stopped talking.

Bai Fengzhan had a little unpleasant look on his face, and said loudly: "According to my speculation, it must be that when the Youzhou Prefecture interrogated a few people from the Baijia overnight, that Baiziye showed a flaw and was found out by the government, so it seems that on the day of the assassination of Lord Yuyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, it is not so simple for this kid to appear in the courtyard of the Liu family, hmph, I think the Liu family can't clear the suspicion, maybe it was secretly planned by the Liu family!" Yes! ”

Bai Fengzhan screamed, his eyes widened, and he muttered: "No wonder, no wonder that Song Cheng is so abnormal, I said what he should know, his Song family and the Liu family are so close, if the Liu family is involved in this matter, how can his Song family not know?!" Hahaha, I see! I get it all! ”

Bai Fengzhan roared excitedly, he had a hunch that he was going to witness a major event tonight, a major event that would affect the current family pattern.

The steward of the Bai family raised his eyes to look at Bai Fengzhan who was full of joy, and said in confusion: "What does the second master understand?" ”

Bai Fengzhan dusted off his legs, stood up in a chic manner, and said with a smile: "I was still worried about what would happen at the dinner, but now it seems that I don't have to worry, today's dinner may be a bad thing for other families, but for my Bai family, it is a great thing!" ”

Seeing that he was still a little ignorant, Bai Fengzhan was very satisfied, he paced into the courtyard, the gloomy weather did not affect his mood, but made him feel like he was behind the scenes, this feeling that everyone was drunk and I was alone made him a little intoxicated, Bai Fengzhan felt that he was dozens of years younger in an instant, and his body had to become much lighter when he walked.

Bai Fengzhan suddenly remembered something, and said to the old steward who was following him: "Inform the children below that our Bai family will go to the banquet an hour earlier in the evening." ”

The Bai family steward was stunned, not knowing why, but he still responded.

Bai Fengzhan said in his heart: "This kind of good show, if I don't enter the arena in advance and occupy a good position, wouldn't it be a pity if I missed something then?" ”

Bai Fengzhan couldn't wait to see Liu Wanxiu and Song Cheng's panicked appearance, he looked at the gradually sinking clouds in the sky, as if he saw a monster in the dark night, about to devour the three families of the Baijia, the Liu family, and the Song family.

......

While Bai Fengzhan thought he understood the whole thing, Shen Ye was in trouble here, he could only count on Meng Feng to protect him now, he wanted to tell Meng Feng what he had experienced, but he was afraid that everything he saw in the camp before was Meng Feng and Xue Mu playing tricks on himself to deceive his trust, so Shen Ye hesitated for a long time and didn't speak.

Seeing this, Meng Feng laughed at himself, and did not continue to ask, but said something else: "What does Your Highness think of my Youzhou?" ”

Shen Ye came back to his senses, thinking about what he had seen and heard when he came to Youzhou, and said, "It seems to me that the Youzhou of the state capital is indeed good. ”

"Where's the good? How is it better than God? ”

Shen Ye was stunned and hesitated: "Don't let it go." ”

"Hahaha."

Meng Feng laughed happily and said happily: "If I can get the praise of His Royal Highness the Prince, even if I go underground at this moment, I can be regarded as worthy of the first emperor." ”

"You ......" Shen Ye looked at Meng Feng worriedly.

Meng Feng looked at Shen Ye's expression and said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't have to be nervous, I won't die if I don't guarantee Your Highness's absolute safety." ”

Then he sighed and said: "I am a native of Youzhou, in Youzhou in the past few decades, I have witnessed too many stories, Your Highness can know that more than 20 years ago when I first took office in Youzhou City, the people in this city were displaced, robbery, theft and murder in the city were repeatedly prohibited, and outside the city was even more chaotic, corpses were everywhere, ordinary people not to mention living a stable life, even to be able to live has become a luxury, and now I have no Beidi Iron Cavalry threat outside Youzhou, no family interference in internal affairs, people live and work here in peace and contentment, All walks of life are thriving, people don't talk about the road, they don't leave their homes behind, and they don't close their doors at night, but I can guarantee that the crime rate in my Youzhou City is also the lowest in the entire empire. ”

Shen Ye said softly: "Youzhou can have such a situation, and the state capital is indeed indispensable. ”

"It's not just me who has made a lot of contributions, but also the officials in Youzhou who are with me, and the soldiers who died on the battlefield in order to overthrow the eunuch group." Meng Feng said: "Can Your Highness promise me two things?" ”

"What's the matter?" Shen Ye vaguely knew what Meng Feng wanted to ask for him.

"If this matter is over, can Your Highness promise not to hold the officials of Youzhou accountable, among the officials, except for me and Zhi'an, no one else knows anything, these are the most loyal imperial talents I selected from the people, many of them are children who have experienced the war back then, and what is even more commendable is that there is no trace of the family among them."

Shen Ye said lightly: "If there is a problem, I will know after checking, but I can assure you that I will not easily wronged any official, and there will be no change in the bureaucratic system in Youzhou." ”

Meng Feng didn't hear the overtone in Shen Ye's words, he bowed down and said, "Your Highness Xie, the old minister is grateful." ”

"Say the second thing."

"If His Royal Highness returns to the imperial capital safe and sound, and ascends the throne as emperor in the future, please let His Highness use less swords and soldiers......"

"Are you interceding for your teacher?" Shen Ye interrupted.

Meng Feng was still bowing: "The minister knows that the teacher and junior brother's move is a capital crime, the minister is interceding for those Jiuqu children, and the minister begs His Royal Highness not to be too murderous when he arrives." ”

Shen Ye looked at Meng Feng quietly, his gaze softened, and he replied, "I promise you, you get up." ”

"The minister has a reluctant request." Meng Feng still didn't straighten up.

Shen Ye frowned when he heard this.

"Please let Your Highness fulfill a small wish of the old minister." Meng Feng looked up at Shen Ye slightly, his voice trembling inexplicably, not that kind of fear, but the kind of trembling that was slightly excited.

Shen Ye was curious, looked at Meng Feng, and found that Meng Feng's eyes were full of excitement and expectation, and his expression was very similar to that of a child who was about to try a prank.

In the sky behind the two, the clouds were slowly falling, as if they also wanted to hear the little wish in Meng Feng's mouth.
