The stars and the moon are the companions, and the lanterns are still the same.

Occasionally, officers and soldiers pass through the city, and there is a heaviness in the festivities that does not disperse for a long time.

After statistics, the Holy Lotus Sect appeared in Jixian County in just two months, collecting nearly 10,000 taels of silver, and there are often rumors in small counties around the country that the people listened to the preaching of the demons of the Holy Lotus Sect and accepted many believers.

Bai Rou walked with her brother, and said that she had heard some rumors recently.

It's no wonder that this girl is frightened, and when she hears more stories outside, she will inevitably feel uneasy.

Bai Song didn't care, patted his sister's head, and said with a smile: "Then the Holy Lotus Sect is nothing more than that?" They have been here for two months to earn enough 10,000 taels, and your brother has made so much money in less than half a month, is your brother more like a bad guy than that? ”

"How can that be compared? The elder brother relied on his ability, and the people of the Holy Lotus Sect were abducted and deceived. ”

"You trust me so much, then don't worry anymore, no matter how powerful the Holy Lotus Sect is, it can't fight your brother."

"Hmm!" Bai Rou nodded seriously, took her brother's hand, and settled down a lot.

The brother and sister walked a short distance side by side, and then arrived at the Taishou Mansion.

On the day of the third watch, the lights of the Taishou Mansion were still not extinguished, and after Bai Song reported his name, the official messenger immediately went in to report.

Later, Lord Jiang personally greeted him, and after seeing Bai Song, he urgently asked about the situation of Miss Chen.

Bai Song told the truth.

Hearing the news, Master Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Last night, it was the escape of the Holy Lotus Sect, the assassination of the Turks, and the jumping of Miss Chen into the river.

There were too many things piled up together, and the thorny master was dizzy.

Now it's okay, Miss Chen is fine, and there is finally one less trouble.

After all, Miss Chen's identity is very high, and if she really dies at the Lantern Festival, it will have a bad impact on the assassin's official career.

There is also the Chen family who was deceived by the people of the Holy Lotus Sect, and Miss Chen is the key person.

Taishoufu and Wang Ye joined forces, and also mobilized the border guards, but the result did not have the slightest impact on the Holy Lotus Sect, Lord Jiang wanted to find a breakthrough from Miss Chen, and in the current situation, it was difficult to give the boss an explanation.

Bai Song wanted to leave, but Master Jiang said that the prince wanted to see him.

Bai Song saw that it was not early tonight, and asked if he could wait until tomorrow to come back.

But Master Jiang seems to be in a hurry, and he will discuss it tonight.

Bai Song thought left and right, and felt that this Master Jiang had something to say, so he turned around and asked Bai Rou to go back and rest first.

Bai Rou was still worried at first, but she came over and said a few words to her brother all the way, and felt a lot more relieved, so she agreed.

Jiang Yu asked one person to escort the little sister of the Bai family back, and he took Bai Song to the guest room.

The lights in the guest room were still on, and Li Zhan was writing carefully in front of his desk, just to return to the recent events in the imperial court.

This fold is not easy to write, in just one minute, Li Zhan stopped writing several times and frowned several times.

Until Bai Song came in with Master Jiang.

Seeing Bai Song, the sadness on Li Zhan's face finally dissipated.

Despite this, Bai Song couldn't see the smile on his face, and he knew that this prince was afraid that he was very worried.

"Bai Song, you ...... When did you come back? ”

Bai Song first briefly said what happened yesterday, and Jiang Yu added: "Fortunately, there is nothing to do, the lower official has ordered everyone to withdraw." ”

Li Zhan nodded reassuringly: "That's fine." ”

"Lord Wang, call me late at night, I don't know what to do?"

Li Zhan gave Jiang Yu a look.

Jiang Yu retreated playfully and closed the doors and windows.

Bai Song looked inexplicable, what should be so hidden?

Li Zhan came to Bai Song and whispered, "Last night on the flower boat, you mentioned something to the old man. ”

"What?" Bai Song didn't think about it or asked casually.

"Undercover Holy Lotus Sect!"

Bai Song frowned: "Why did you suddenly mention this matter again." ”

Li Zhan stroked his beard: "The old man thought about it all night, and felt that what you said was not worth trying, the Holy Lotus Sect was complicated, and it would definitely be even more difficult to eradicate it for a while, if you can go undercover in it, even if you can't get rid of its leader, it would be a big deal to figure out the situation of the Holy Lotus Sect for the time being." ”

Seeing that Li Zhan was so serious, Bai Song knew that he was afraid that he was not joking this time.

Thinking of this, Bai Song's brows furrowed even tighter: "Does the prince mean to let me go?" ”

"Exactly!"

When Bai Song heard this, his heart suddenly became a little angry.

Although this idea was proposed by him, Bai Song is not a fool, and he knows that the reason why this prince will adopt it is not because he thinks this idea is very good, but because he is difficult to ride a tiger now, if he does not make a little achievement, it is difficult to make a difference to his head, he is thinking about himself, and he has never thought about Bai Song's life or death.

Bai Song didn't speak, but his expression already had an impatient look.

Li Zhan felt that he had lost something, and his tone was very calm: "This time is indeed a bit dangerous, but the old man thinks about it, and only you are the most suitable for this matter."

First of all, before last night, both the old man and Master Jiang suspected that you had something to do with the Holy Lotus Sect. The demon girl of the Holy Lotus Sect took advantage of this matter to play a trick of the golden cicada shelling. Judging from your past performance, if you go undercover, the Holy Lotus Sect will not suspect that you have something to do with the imperial court.

Secondly, your kid is not chaotic in the face of danger, although he is young, but he is meticulous and not easy to expose. The old man values you, and even more importantly, your ability.

Moreover, the demon girl who escaped has true feelings for you, and after the investigation of the imperial court, your three house slaves were entrusted to you by the demon girl, on the one hand, to protect your safety, and on the other hand, to let those three house slaves dissociate themselves from the Holy Lotus Sect. With you undercover, it is easier to gain the trust of the other party.

In the end, you have good reasons to join the Holy Lotus Sect without raising suspicions. ”

"What reason?"

"On the flower boat last night, the old man wanted to take your life several times!"

Bai Song was stunned when he heard this, and an evil fire rushed to his heart.

He asked himself to show 100% respect for this old man, and felt that this was a different prince, and every time he communicated, he put his heart into his heart and did not hide anything.

Who would have thought that an old friend he treated so sincerely would kill him? And I didn't even notice it at all.

Thinking about it, Bai Song was even more afraid in his heart, and because of the fear in his heart, the anger on his face was even more unconcealed.

At this moment, a person walked into the room, and it was the guard who hid in the dark part of the room like a ghost.

As soon as the guards in the shadows appeared, Bai Song felt a strong pressure, as if it was burning, and there was a stream of heat all around.

Li Zhan turned around and waved his hand at the guards.

"Okay, it's rare for the old man to be honest with Brother Bai once, so don't come out and add to it."

After speaking, the guards disappeared into the darkness, and Li Zhan's gaze turned to Bai Song again.

"Bai Song, it is rare for the old man to call a junior a brother, which is enough to show that the old man feels guilty. But in other words, you should also understand the difficulties of the old man, and if you are an old man, judging from what you have seen and heard, you will inevitably be regarded as the biggest object of suspicion. ”

Bai Song suppressed his anger and asked in a low voice, "Then why did you change your opinion now?" ”

"On the one hand, the Holy Lotus Sect demons have frequently succeeded in the city, indicating that the old man suspects the wrong person. And more importantly, in the chaos of last night's Turkic attack, there is a man who wants to take your life. And that person was the killer of the Holy Lotus Sect. Obviously, the old man is not the only one who wants to take your life, and you seem to be a thorn in the side of the Holy Lotus Sect. ”

“……”

Commenting on Bai Song's IQ, he couldn't digest a lot of information for a while.

In the dark place that I don't know, it seems that many things have happened that Bai Song doesn't know.

Li Zhan groaned: "After a night, many things have become clear. The Holy Lotus Sect seems to have a special regard for that demon girl, and the people of the Holy Lotus Sect don't seem to want anyone to affect her loyalty to the Holy Lotus Sect, so they want to get rid of you. ”

"On what basis?"

"On the basis? The basis is that the demon girl learned that you fell into the river, went and returned, and at this moment she has sent people to investigate in the city, and her every move is under the watchful eye of the old man. ”

"Qing'er, she's back?"

Li Zhan smiled and nodded: "If you say that she is ruthless to you, the old man and other old bones will not believe it." ”

"......" Bai Song frowned, a little at a loss when he heard this.

Qing'er went and returned, putting herself in danger, and now she has been watched by the imperial court.

Is it all because of yourself?

"This time, even if the demon girl put on her wings, it would be difficult to fly out of the old man's palm. And the head of the demon girl can just solve the problem in front of the old man, and I believe that the court will understand. So, the old man didn't force you to go undercover. ”

"What does the prince mean, either I will go undercover, or I will take Qing'er's life to the court?"

Li Zhan smiled: "Exactly! ”

"Lord Wang, I didn't see it in the past, you also have such a means?"

"In this matter, Brother Bai shouldn't be embarrassed, is it possible that Brother Bai also has some affection for that demon girl, and he can't bear to hurt her? The old man can remind Brother Bai that no one who is involved with the demon girl is good. ”

"Good! I promise you it is! But I ask you to also know that on the day it is done, I want the emperor to give you a marriage! ”

"This condition can be talked about later, the old man can promise you a condition, Qing'er and marriage, and the old man will give you a choice."

Bai Song gritted his teeth and felt a little depressed.

In the past, I really underestimated this half-dead old man, but for now, I am controlled by him.

But now is not the time to dwell on this, compared to this old man, Bai Song is more disgusted by the Holy Lotus Sect.

Ancient cults were so poisonous that they left behind an unknown number of people.

Now that there is a reason to meddle in this matter, Bai Song has his own choice.

Hearing that Bai Song should come down, Li Zhan showed joy on his face, and motioned to Bai Song to come to the bookcase: "Take a look, if you think it's okay, you will draw a charge on it." ”

originally thought it was Li Zhan writing an excerpt, but it turned out that what was on the bookcase was a letter of nomination!

"In today's chaotic world, the people are not living, and the Holy Lotus Sect has been suffering for a long time. A certain Bai Song is willing to be filial piety to the world, joined the secret edict division, was ordered to go undercover in the cult, waiting for the opportunity to destroy the evil demons, and now vows to vote for the name, never regret it, never betray. ”

Bai Song looked at it and looked back.

Li Zhan said with a smile: "This is an indispensable thing, as long as you draw a charge on this thing, the old man can believe that you are loyal to the imperial court, if he has a different heart, as long as the old man hands over this thing to the Holy Lotus Sect, you will definitely die." ”

"What if I don't sign it?"

"Exterminating the Holy Lotus Sect is a miraculous feat, and letting the emperor give marriage is just a trivial matter, and it is easy to save the life of the demon woman. If you don't agree, you will continue to be a businessman, but don't try to meddle in the court to arrest the demon girl, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”
