Chapter 256: A Little Advice for the King of Shu
It was late at night, and the White Mansion finally calmed down.
After the guests of the Lin family stopped, they had already stayed in the arranged room, and they were much more honest.
Bai Song came out of the bathhouse with a body of water vapor and returned to the room with his wet hair.
The lights in the room are still on, Xiaocui in the side room is already asleep, the bed curtain in the inner room is down, and Xiang'er should also sleep.
The light is still on, indicating that Xiang'er has not fallen asleep.
Until now, he couldn't say a word, Bai Song said casually: "Have you slept?" ”
For a moment, the curtain of the bed moved slightly, and a very soft answer came from inside.
"Hmm."
After saying that, there was no response.
Bai Song didn't know what to say, hesitated for a while, honestly blew out the lamp, and went to bed.
Tonight, as before, Bai Song hugged Xiang'er and slept as if nothing had happened.
Early the next morning, Bai Song woke up, and Xiang'er was gone.
Outside, there were bursts of shouting, and the aroma of wine and meat seemed to be coming from the distance.
Bai Song was suddenly startled, remembering that there were still many guests today, so he hurriedly got up and dressed.
This person has long been accustomed to the life of the ancient young master, and subconsciously shouted the name of Dong Xiang.
Dongxiang was guarding outside the house in a proper manner, and when she heard the shout, she immediately came in, and quickly dressed the young master, tied her belt, and straightened her collar.
Then he brought all the toiletries to the young master, twisted the handkerchief for the young master, and took advantage of the gap between the young master's face to put on the young master's shoes.
"Where did Xiang'er go?"
"Madame went to guard the back kitchen early in the morning, and several guests have already arrived, and Madame should be in the main hall to entertain guests."
Bai Song answered, got up and walked towards the front yard.
"Young master, there is also lotus seed soup."
"No need."
"Young master, let's take a sip."
Dongxiang chased, chattering, Bai Song couldn't help it, took a big sip of it, and threw the bowl on the ground first.
Under the simple daily life, Bai Song's life is gradually changing.
There is some stability in the busyness, although there are always stumbles, but it also makes people feel simple and real.
At that time, the guests gradually came to the door.
They are all people known to Bai Song, no matter their identity, no matter their status, they are all generalized.
There are former street gangsters, private farmers, as well as old ladies and gentlemen, and some dignitaries.
In this era, it is also a different landscape.
Today's guests once again showed their abilities to the people of the Lin family, not only the head of the Chen family and the young lady of the Zheng family, but even the prince became a guest.
Even if the Lin family invites guests, they can't invite such a person.
This scene made the Lin family full of emotion, and they could only think that the times had changed.
Today's family banquet was held in a harmonious atmosphere, the host and guest were very polite, everyone was happy, and nothing major happened.
However, the news of Bai Song's entry into Mingchun Garden spread even more, and it reached the ears of the people, and since then, the Bai family has also become a business card among all ethnic groups in Youzhou.
When Shen is gone, the guests are scattered.
Lin Tingzheng said goodbye to Bai Song.
Bai Song welcomed everyone in the Lin family out of the car and got into the car, only the younger sister Qin drank too much at noon and did not wake up.
Lin Xun, who stayed behind, guarded his wife and left after he sobered up.
Xiang'er watched her mother's family gradually disappear as Xianggong watched her father in front of the door, and the expression on her face was a little complicated.
Bai Song gently took her hand, looked at no one around, and whispered, "I'm sorry." ”
Xiang'er was stunned for a moment, looked back at Xianggong, lowered her head and whispered: "It's me who lost my sense of proportion......"
"The white boy is really an amorous species, but at this moment, he doesn't forget to share time with Mei Jiaoniang."
The voice of Li Zhan, the king of Shu, came from behind him.
Bai Song turned around, saw that there was no one around him, and was a little drunk, stepped forward to help, and then glanced at Xiang'er.
Xiang'er will retire and go home first.
Bai Song walked all the way with Li Zhan: "Lord Wang, why don't you see someone?" Do you want a carriage? ”
Li Zhan shook his head: "No need, seeing that there are not many guests in your house, the old man wants to say a few words with you." ”
"If the prince has something to say, just say it."
"Have you ever heard of the Holy Lotus Sect?"
"I've heard a little bit lately."
"Then tell me, what kind of goods is this Holy Lotus Sect?"
But hearsay is not true. Some people say that the Holy Lotus Sect is just poisoning the people under the guise of helping the world and saving people, and some people say that the Holy Lotus Sect is a bodhisattva who saves the suffering and saves the suffering. There are different opinions among the people, and they don't have what they have seen with their own eyes, and the younger generations generally don't think about it. ”
Li Zhan squinted, always with that expression, but at this moment, he suddenly turned his head to look at Bai Song, and then said with a smile: "Recently, there have been many rich and noble families in the county who have stolen and lost a lot of silver taels. The imperial court suspected that it was the Holy Lotus Sect. The people of the Holy Lotus Sect are dedicated to the rich and noble, you live in such a large courtyard now, but you must be careful, valuable things must be hidden tightly. ”
"Thank you for the reminder."
Bai Song didn't pay attention to it, but just answered.
I didn't want to say anything after that, so the prince didn't say anything, and silently followed Bai Song forward.
Bai Song asked curiously: "Lord Wang, stay alone just to tell me this?" ”
Looking at Bai Song's puzzled expression, Li Zhan's smile was a little stiff, as if he was worried that Bai Song felt that he was tempting, so he turned to find a topic and asked: "This king is still the same sentence, when will you be willing to give the whole book of the Three Kingdoms in your hand to the old man?" Do you have to wait until the end of the story? ”
"Well...... this" Bai Song wanted to speak and stopped, obviously still with his previous attitude, reluctantly.
And Li Zhan is a casual person to the extreme, he never wants to do things that are embarrassing, and when he saw Bai Song's expression, he happily stopped asking.
"Lord Wang, in fact, you yourself are reluctant to get the complete book of the Three Kingdoms so quickly, right?"
I thought the topic was over by now.
Li Zhan planned to let Bai Song stop and leave alone.
Unexpectedly, Bai Song suddenly seemed to say this meaningfully.
Li Zhan chuckled in his heart, and said in his heart that Bai Song would not have already sensed his intentions?
Or did the Holy Lotus Sect already know that it was itself coordinating the investigation of the Holy Lotus Sect's forces in Youzhou?
This is not a good phenomenon, Li Zhan suddenly became a little nervous.
If the news of his acceptance of the secret decree is exposed, it is very likely that he will be assassinated by the Holy Lotus Sect, which is a very dangerous thing.
Li Zhan's expression became serious, and a figure gradually appeared on a courtyard wall, and a killing intent had quietly locked in Bai Song's heart.
But Bai Song's words immediately after that made Li Zhan feel strange.
"Lord Wang, in fact, I have never figured it out, why did the emperor arrange for you to revise the history of the Tang Dynasty? From a common sense point of view, the revision of the history of the Tang Dynasty has little to do with the Three Kingdoms. Now, I understand that the prince is obsessed with the history of the Three Kingdoms, and he just wants to use it as an excuse to delay time, and he lives in Youzhou to escape the pressure from the emperor, right? ”
Li Zhan's footsteps suddenly stopped, his former smile instantly froze, and he looked at Bai Song in disbelief, unable to speak for a long time.
Bai Song's words really shocked him.
Even if someone said that he had accepted a secret order to investigate the Holy Lotus Sect, Li Zhan would not have the shocked expression he had now.
Because Bai Song's words directly hit the deeper secret in his heart, and looking at Bai Song's mysterious smile, it was obvious that he still had something he didn't dare to say.
Li Zhan is over 80 years old, and he is a relative of the emperor, so he should have enjoyed his old age at such an age.
How could he be running around without a good reason? It is even more impossible to accept the emperor's secret decree and investigate the Holy Lotus Sect.
All cause and effect are the secrets between him, the imperial uncle, and the emperor.
Li Zhan has traveled to countless places and used the same excuse to hide from countless people.
I didn't expect to be seen by a kid who was not more than twenty years old.
"The prince doesn't need to be surprised, it is fate for the younger generation to intersect with the prince. And the prince's easy-going temperament is also respected by the younger generation, and there is no one at the moment, so the younger generation says so, if the prince is embarrassed by the emperor's will, the younger generation has a word to say. ”
"What?"
"The pen of the literati cannot change history, and the truth will always be revealed."
After speaking, Bai Song hugged his fist towards the other party.
"Lord Wang, the younger generation will not send it, and I will say goodbye first."
After Bai Song left, a person soon appeared next to Li Zhan, standing behind Li Zhan, and asked in a low voice: "Lord Wang, what did he say just now?" Why such an expression? The subordinates don't know whether to make a move. ”
Li Zhan's expression was solemn: "This son seems to know some secret things, it's good if he is not a member of the Holy Lotus Sect, but if he is a member of the Holy Lotus Sect, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles." ”
"Lord Wang, do you want to get rid of this person?"
Li Zhan shook his head: "Although this son's deeds are suspicious, it is really incomprehensible that he bought Mingchun Garden. If it was a member of the Holy Lotus Sect, he should transfer the silver taels, how could he buy land with ten thousand taels of silver in the extreme north? ”
"The Holy Lotus Sect has never been able to use common sense to speculate, if the stakes are significant, even if they are killed by mistake, they should not leave hidden dangers."
Li Zhan nodded in a deep voice, and then shook his head again: "Tonight, you pretended to be a Holy Lotus Sect disciple to enter the White Mansion to steal, and see if there are any high-ranking people in this White Mansion?" A private family, there will never be a master to protect you, if you are blocked, this kid will be even more suspicious. ”
……
When Bai Song went home, facing the mess at home, everyone was busy cleaning up, and he secretly decided that he would not have any more banquets in the future.
It's pointless and wasted time.
In contrast, it is more comfortable for a family to sit around a table and eat meat and drink more comfortably than anything else.
Bai Song saw that the newcomers were the most diligent, and they did not show the slightest arrogance in martial arts, and they did not exclude work such as wiping tables and sweeping floors.
Do whatever you want, and there is no superfluous word.
The three of them behaved too perfectly, which made Bai Song feel a little strange, and walked to Ah Da who was sweeping the floor with a water bag.
"It's hard work, let's drink saliva."
Ah Dacheng was so frightened that he couldn't even say it.
Bai Song patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, when you get to the Bai family, there won't be so many mundane etiquette." There are no outsiders around, and when the door is closed, it is a family. ”
Ah Dale nodded, took the water bag and poured two sips.
While Ah Da was drinking water, Bai Song asked again: "What are the rivers and lakes like?" ”
Ah Da was stunned for a while, and thought for a while before smiling bitterly: "Jianghu...... Where are the rivers and lakes? Now that the country is safe and the people live in peace, the rivers and lakes are long gone. ”
"Then is your martial arts considered powerful in the previous rivers and lakes?"
"I can't get on the stage, so that the young master can laugh."
"Actually, I've always wanted to practice martial arts, how about you teach me to practice martial arts in the future?"
