Chapter 254: Back to Youzhou
Not to mention Jingzhong, how will Lu Jiuzhong consolidate his position next, and how will he concoct Jiang Haitian, the enemy of the old grudge.
Already the Son of Heaven and the princes of the imperial court. And how to deal with this mess, and how to plan to liquidate the Manichaeans.
On the other side, after a day and night journey, Bai Li and his party finally returned to Youzhou. And this also marks that Bai Li is about to experience a stormy baptism.
That's right, it's a raging storm.
Tianba was too angry, but he still didn't resist. Bai Li hadn't been away for a few days before Mrs. Bai saw that something was wrong.
Then the rest goes without saying.
Seeing that Bai Li had stopped for a long time, he ran out again. And also hid it from her mother, and Mrs. Bai was immediately furious.
As for how angry it is......
Anyway, Bai Si's previous letter, although it was not explicitly stated, the meaning expressed between the lines was obvious.
Childe, you can ask for more blessings.
So to be honest, Bai Li really doesn't want to come back at this juncture.
But it's not okay if you don't come back, after all, if Mrs. Bai doesn't return because of Bai Li, what is the best thing to do, then ......
In short, due to various considerations, Bai Li still chose to go back to Youzhou to meet Madame Bai's anger.
Youzhou, Yuyang.
Because Bai Li wrote a reply letter before, mentioning the approximate date of his arrival. Therefore, Madame Bai had already asked the housekeeper in the palace to wait at the gate of the city, and when she saw Bai Li appearing, she hurriedly greeted her.
And from the mouth of his butler, Bai Li also knew that Mrs. Bai was probably really angry this time.
For a while, even Bai Li had already guessed this matter, and he couldn't be good, and his long-lost anxiety couldn't help but come to his mind. At the same time, Bai Li also understood that this time it was impossible to deal with it as easily as last time.
And then, things developed just as Bai Li had predicted.
After returning home, he didn't wait for Bai Li to wash off the dust on his body. I just chatted with Bai Si here for a few words, asking what happened in the capital during his absence. Madame Bai sent a message to the ancestral hall to kneel.
When did you kneel and understand, you are going to see her.
Facing Mrs. Bai in anger, where did Bai Li dare to say more.
The body bones that he showed on the outside would not last long even if he was punished, otherwise, if he really lay down, it would be Madame Bai who was worried. Therefore, he gave an order to let Bai Si settle the people he brought back, and then came to the ancestral ancestral hall under the leadership of his subordinates to be punished.
Time is slipping away little by little.
As Bai Li expected, although the clamor was fierce, Madame Bai was still very worried about her frail and sickly son.
Therefore, seeing the sunset and the moonrise, Zhenbei Hou is about to return home, and the worry about his son's body is still on the upper hand. So even if the anger in his chest has not subsided, he still doesn't plan to let Bai Li continue to kneel.
Directly asked people to summon Bai Li, and let it dry for a while, and then said without being salty: "I've been kneeling for so long, I think I should know what I was wrong with." Let's talk about it. ”
Seeing that Mrs. Bai was finally willing to speak, Bai Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly admitted her mistake and said: "Back to the mother, the child's mistake is to leave the house without permission, the fault is to say goodbye without saying goodbye, the fault is to let Tianba pretend to be himself, and the fault is to make your mother and father worry." ”
"That's all?" said Madame White, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, that's wrong...... Or, mother, remind me. Bai Li thought for a while, and found that he really couldn't think of anything else that could be wrong, so he couldn't help laughing.
Just looked at Bai Li, who was smiling, for a moment, until the smile on Bai Li's face was already stiff. Mrs. Bai spoke again: "Okay, then I'll remind my mother, what is the relationship with you this day." How much do you have to hide from me and your father!"
Bai Li couldn't help but stiffen when he heard the smile on his face, and then pretended to be confused: "This ...... The child did not understand when the child had been hiding from his mother and father. And the matter of Tianba, didn't the child say it very clearly last time? One day, a woman in the human realm fell in love with ......"
"I love you, so I send my men for you to drive, is that what you want to say?" asked Madame Bai rhetorically.
“...... Yes," Bai Li replied hesitantly.
"Li'er," Madame Bai said expressionlessly, "Do you think it's easy to deceive your mother and your father, so you have repeatedly come up with some things to prevaricate us." ”
Bai Li hurriedly said: "How dare the child ......?"
"Think clearly," Madame Bai directly interrupted Bai Li's words and said, "Remind you, those subordinates of yours really won't say much." But sometimes, silence ...... It is also an answer. ”
As Madame Bai said, Tianba really doesn't talk much. But in some details, it can also be exposed a lot, last time, because Bai Li took out a so-called girlfriend in the realm of heaven and man, and diverted the attention of Madame Bai and others, Madame Bai didn't think about it.
However, this time...... But there was enough time for Madame Bai to discover something she had overlooked before.
For example, Tianba's attitude towards Bai Li is a kind of awe from the bottom of his heart. It is by no means what Bai Li mentioned before, relying on the so-called deterrence of his girlfriend in the realm of heaven and man.
Don't forget, Tianba has nothing to do with the Bai family, so you can talk nonsense to Mrs. Bai unscrupulously. But Bai Er, Bai Yi, people like Bai Yi, who have served the Bai family for generations, can't and don't dare.
For example, Bai Er, when Mrs. Bai asked some sensitive questions, she could only choose to keep silent. Sometimes, however, silence is also an answer, and it is no wonder that Madame White has spoken before.
And Bai Li was reminded by Mrs. Bai, and also thought of one thing that Bai Si mentioned after he returned home, that is, Mrs. Bai had found Bai Er and asked the other party about something.
I still don't understand there, if I don't come up with something practical this time, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass.
So I couldn't help but sigh, and then said, "Well, Mother, I admit, there are some things...... Hide it from you and your father. I admit my mistakes and I accept punishment. ”
"Then tell me what we're hiding," replied Madame White.
In fact, how much Bai Li hid it, Mrs. Bai didn't particularly care, after all, everyone has their own little secrets. But what she couldn't tolerate was that Bai Li disappeared again and again and left Youzhou.
You must know that today is a world where force is dominant, and the force is so high that it can even influence the direction of the world.
It is the so-called Confucianism to disrupt the law with literature, and chivalry to violate the prohibition with martial arts. In the case of the greatly increased deterrent effect of force, then such a thing as law is a piece of waste paper in the eyes of many powerful people.
In this case, fortunately in Youzhou, with the blessing of the Houfu in the north of the town, Bai Li's safety can still be guaranteed.
But out of Youzhou, the influence of the town of Beihou has greatly declined. Once something happens, then ......
Therefore, Madame Bai wanted to hear what Bai Li was hiding, so he ignored his ban and ran out one after another.
