Bai Yufan didn't know the details of Shen Liushu, so he took him back to the inn where he lived and found an upper room to settle in.

Coincidentally, the shopkeeper is the familiar fat body, but one of the two went out, and the other came back late, which can be regarded as unworshipable.

There are three excellent guest rooms in the inn, and they are not allowed to live outside, except for the nobles in the palace or the heads of the fourteen states.

But this is a secret, not to mention ordinary people, even some dignitaries and nobles don't know about it, and only real big people are qualified.

Well, it's been a few years since I came to the inn again.

In the room No. 2, a woman is really reading, and what she holds in her hand is not the favorite love of ordinary girls, but the Art of War.

"The sages really used their soldiers like gods. ”

"Sister. ”

The door opened, and the woman closed the scroll and looked back to see a familiar face.

"Why did you come back so late? Isn't something wrong?"

The beautiful silver bell rang, and the speaker and the white feather fan were almost carved out of a mold.

"No, with my skills, what can happen. The white feather fan picked up the teapot and didn't pour it into the cup, but drank it to his mouth, and after drinking, he wiped his mouth and stepped on the stool with one foot.

"But I'm tired, by the way, sister, I met an interesting person this time. ”

The white paper painting frowned, "I don't sit down, you are still a lady, I think you look like a tomboy." ”

"Hehe, sister, you said that we are difficult to come out once, so don't always frown, I have heard people say that those who are always sad and sad are easy to become yellow-faced women. ”

Bai Yu Fan, the little aunt and grandmother in the eyes of others, even Bai Tang didn't take her, but she was very respectful to her sister, if the sisterhood was deep, it was also a reason, but the most important thing was that the martial arts of the white paper painting were extremely high, and she couldn't beat it, and she couldn't escape, so she was cleaned up and obeyed.

Everyone in the world knows that there are three pearls in the world, and there are also five women, and the Great Song Dynasty accounts for two, which are the eldest of the Lantai family: the deputy general of the Mobei Army, and the other is the boss of the Bai family: the director of the investigation and decision, the shadow of the door supervisor, the tiger outside the painting, and the white paper painting.

As for her master, she is a real big man, stomping her feet, and this Da Song is also trembling.

The white feather fan walked behind the white paper painting, beat her back, and offered her courtesy.

"Didn't go drinking?"

Said the blank paper drawing.

The white feather fan was naturally not stupid enough to admit it, and the strength in his hand was a little heavier.

"No, how could it be, this is not a matter of remembering my sister's explanation, how can I have spare time to drink. ”

The blank paper painting understands her sister's temperament, drinking is not an important thing, and she will not care, but she is afraid of drinking and making mistakes, so she has been supervising.

She poured a cup of tea and took a sip, "But how did I hear that someone saw you in a restaurant and drank with someone?"

Oh no, what kind of long-tongued woman with a broken mouth, don't let your grandmother catch it, or you will have to pump your tendons and pick your skin.......

There are a lot of words in my heart.

"Done scolding?" the blank paper painting put down the teacup.

The white feather fan was about to explain, but he saw the white paper painting raise his hand to stop it, "I have said several times, you drink, I don't care, don't go to fight with others, what if you drink people out of a good way?"

Forehead.......

"Alright, let's talk about that. ”

The blank paper painting asked.

The white feather fan bent down, lay down on the leg of the white paper painting, and thumped her leg again, "Naturally, it was done, but that day he was in the sedan chair, and there was a third-grade master by his side to protect him, I was afraid of leaking the wind, but I just glanced at it from a distance, and the appearance should not be said, but the character is ......"

"How's the character?"

This is what the blank paper painting is most concerned about.

This is also one of the purposes of her coming to Youzhou.

"This ......" Bai Yufan hesitated a little, "It is rumored that this person is obscene and evil, I went to his house on purpose, and found that the number of female dependents is indeed several times more than that of ordinary people." ”

The white paper painting was not surprised, but drank three cups of tea in a row, "This Liu Hezhi is the same as what the intelligence said." ”

However, this matter is misinformation, these female dependents have nothing to do with Liu Hezhi, if you really want to talk about it, they are all his elders.

In fact, it was his father who cultivated pure masculinity who did a good thing, but it was in the way of face, so poor Liu Hezhi carried the black cauldron.

For the Son of Man, it is difficult!

"How's the matter going on my sister's side?"

Bai Shimai shook his head, "Although there are clues provided by the wind gate, I don't know the exact hiding place of Bai Ge. ”

"Why doesn't my sister ask the people of Fengmen for some information?"

White Feather Fan said.

"No, I'm a person from the shadow gate, this time in order to chase this traitor, I have abused my power to read the information of the wind gate, and these people have a lot of complaints about me, if it weren't for the sake of looking at the teacher, there is no perfect explanation, I'm afraid this matter will not end well. ”

"Since we can't find him, then we're trying to force him to show up. ”

Although the idea of white paper painting was also used, it was quickly rejected by himself.

She still shook her head, "Bai Ge is suspicious and ruthless in life, the most important thing is that he treats human life like a mustard, and if he is forced to be anxious, it will inevitably hurt the innocent." ”

The two sisters of the Bai family came here for two purposes, one was to see the future husband painted on white paper, but she was a rule-abiding person, so she had to let her sister do it for her.

Another purpose is to chase down the traitor Bai Ge of the Bai family, who stole the account books of the Bai family's silver exchange over the years, but the matter was silent, so the father only let the two sisters come to investigate, and the younger sister only knew that Bai Ge had violated the family law, but she didn't know why.

said that he was looking at his future husband, but he didn't use this excuse to act conveniently and hide people's eyes.

Generally, it is common to do such oily and watery businesses as official salt, and it is common to secretly leave some benefits for your own family, although most of this kind of thing is well known, and the people in the palace also turn a blind eye.

But if it hits the top, someone will definitely participate in it, and then the official family's face will not be able to pass, even if there is a concubine blowing the pillow wind, but in order to give everyone an explanation, his Bai family still can't eat and walk around.

What's more, my father has intensified in the past few years, and what he stole was not a small amount, and the most important thing was that the silver taels were used to raise private soldiers.

The most taboo thing for the emperors of the past dynasties is this matter, and if you are not careful, it is a big crime to kill the head and punish the nine clans.

The account books are small, but if someone touches the melon, the ancestral business of the Bai family will be destroyed.

The white paper painting looked out the window at the murmuring rain and muttered, "Baige, what are you for?" ”

-------------------------------------

Jinzhou, Baijia.

Today's Bai family ancestral hall is particularly lively, with seven aunts and eight aunts crowding the stone path outside the ancestral hall.

Originally, even if there were many relatives and the direct family members of the side door were prosperous, there would not be so many.

However, after the Bai family got up in the past few years, these relatives have become more and more high-profile one by one, and the most obvious thing is that the number of entourages around them has increased significantly, and the comparison has become a trend.

"I said, brother-in-law, what did you call us to do, you still have to say it in front of your ancestors. ”

The sound was like a hoarse duck that had been screaming for a day, and it was harsh.

This person's name is Wang Cuihua, a person with little culture, he doesn't know a single big character, but the crooked reasoning in his mouth is one set after another.

She is dressed up in a fancy way, since her sister Wang Yue married the Bai family, she can be regarded as a relative and enjoys happiness.

From a village woman, she could only live in a straw house and do some farm work, but in a blink of an eye, she became the brother-in-law of a large family.

It's rare to go back to the village once, she has to show off when she sees everyone, and she can't wait for the whole village to know how good she is now.

My sister is from a bad background, the daughter of a farmer, she looks average, but she is smart, and she is a well-known talented woman in ten miles and eight towns.

It's strange to say, even if the Bai family was not strong back then, there was a woman who was hundreds of times better than her sister with the name of the prince, but she fell in love with Wang Yue.

I heard that Bai Tang and Wang Yue still fell in love at first sight.

It's not so much love at first sight as taking what you need.

When Bai Tang was young, there were three older brothers and two sisters in front of him, no matter how he ranked, the position of the head of the family would never be his turn.

Compared to those brothers and sisters, he is nothing but handsome.

But this position does not depend on appearance.

But when they met by chance in the mountains that day, Wang Yue fell in love with his appearance and engraved it in his heart, and he would not marry.

Some people laughed at her delusional and told her to take a good look at herself in the mirror, even her dearest sister didn't believe her.

She knew he didn't look down on him, but she also knew he wanted that position.

So there is this heaven knows, you know the secrets I know.

Bai Tang married Wang Yue and claimed that the two fell in love at first sight.

Wang Yue is indeed a woman with means, but in just one year, Bai Tang has secured the position of the head of the family.

So in the eyes of outsiders, Baitang is a famous rake ear.

But everyone who works in the Bai family knows that in fact, Mrs. is the real power and manager in this family.

The Bai family took over the sale of official salt, and Wang Yue also planned it single-handedly, and handed over the fake account books made by himself to the boss, and there have been no mistakes over the years.

The status of the Bai family has also risen

Since the Bai family is not short of money, it is natural to have the panache of the royal mansion.

How to make a head?

In the end, it is a family, and they all come to a conclusion.

Eating well and dressing well are not enough to be stylish, and there are many people around you who are dressed in pomp and circumstance.

looked at the female relatives who played together on weekdays wearing gold and silver, and there were many more followers around them, and they showed off to her intentionally or unintentionally.

She didn't get angry, and she didn't gossip about it, chewing on the root of her ears.

Originally, this move was unruly, but she did it intentionally, but she couldn't bear Wang Cuihua's grinding mouth.

In order to change his purity, Wang Yue had to silently agree to this matter.

Men become bad once they have power and money.

Let's not talk about Bai Tang's concubines, originally these could not threaten her status, let me ask which man does not have three wives and four concubines, especially a noble person like Bai Tang, but who makes her stomach not angry.

I have been married for ten years, and I have not had a son.

That's why there are five or six aunts.

One by one, their appearance is a thousand times better than her, although several aunts are scattered for the Bai family, but they are all golden branches and jade leaves, and the third aunt is too pregnant with twins, which can make Bai Tang happy at that time.

She is also the most favored on weekdays, but unfortunately in the end, she still didn't give birth to a handle, and she put her life in it.

Aiwu and Wu, Bai Tang is also obviously partial to the two sisters.

Regardless of these concubines for the time being, the most infuriating thing is the outer room, which was originally despised by everyone.

Wang Yue, as the mother of the house, naturally has the obligation and the right to deal with it.

But who would have thought that this slut would actually give birth to a brother.

Mother is more expensive than child, and she can't move.

According to Wang Yue's plan, he married into the Bai family first, and then got the moon first near the water, and fell in love for a long time.

But after a long time, she found that she was wrong, and this man did not love her at all.

So she put her mind on the development of the family, especially after learning that she could not have children, she was even more obsessed with power.

The strange thing is that Bai Tang is unusual, getting better and better to herself, and her meticulous care makes her feel love for the first time in so many years.

She thought that her years of hard work had finally paid off, but the reality gave him a resounding slap in the face.

A mysterious person approached her and told her that she couldn't have children because Bai Tang had secretly done something to him, and that the so-called medicine that he fed her every day was also poisoned.

Wang Yue is a smart person, she will not be stupid enough to make conclusions based on the words of others.

But she knew in her heart that this matter must have nothing to do with Bai Tang, after all, although she came up with the idea for him back then, he didn't frown when he did it.

So there is now this self-directed and self-acted Bai family crisis.

This is a warning she gave, but also an opportunity.

As long as you can grasp it, I am still willing to give you everything you want, she thought.

As for the so-called traitor Baige, it is even more of a big joke.

Bai Ge's loyalty to the Bai family can be seen, and he regards the honor and disgrace of the Bai family as ten million times more important than his own life.

Even if someone puts a knife on his neck and forces him, he will not frown.

Of course, he was more loyal to Wang Yue. As for the reason, I will not mention it for the time being.

There is another purpose for sending Bai Ge out, this matter involves Sheng Guang, Bai Tang will definitely not worry about others to deal with it, and although there are many heirs of the Bai family, there are really a few who can really take charge of themselves, most of the descendants are women, and the only baby bump, although it can be regarded as a small success, but he is distressed, so he will naturally not be sent out easily.

So this matter can only be handed over to the two of them who draw white feather fans on white paper.

The two sisters are quite skilled in martial arts, and in order to prevent the plan from changing, Bai Ge is the bait to lure the two away.

Bai Tang knelt on the cushion and got up after kowtowing a few times.

A handsome face appeared in front of everyone, but the gossip was not whispered.

He wore a white apricot skein carpet, a dark crimson python pattern gold belt was tied around his waist, and a fine mutton fat jade pendant was engraved with a white character.

Gu Pan's bright eyes really hooked the hearts of the girls.

Bai Tang prides himself on being a scholar, he has always liked simplicity, and his clothes are generally relatively simple, except that the gold belt around his waist is a symbol of status, and he can't say anything worth saying.

Even if the years have left traces on his face, it is still not his heroic appearance, no wonder Wang Yue is so obsessed with him that he is lucky.

With such a good look, he should be a scholar and an idle prince with peace of mind, but he has an ambition.

It's a pity that his strength can't support his ambitions.

"I had a strange dream yesterday, and I dreamed that it was the ancestor of the Bai family who knelt under the old locust tree at the door and cried to me: The Bai family is too extravagant now......."

Baitang Rory said a lot of words, and everyone thought he was farting, pretending not to hear, and doing his own thing, chatting and chatting.

"So, early this morning, I knelt down in front of the ancestral hall to plead guilty. Bai Tang deliberately paused when he said this, but unfortunately no one still paid attention to him,

"This time I came to tell you that in the future, the Bai family will have to balance expenses, just keep a few of the entourage here, and take some broken silver for the rest, and dismiss it." ”

"What!?"

Sure enough, a sentence stirred up a thousand waves.

Everyone exploded in an instant.

The first to bear the brunt is Wang Cuihua, she is an uneducated person, she doesn't know what to be respectful and inferior, and she relies on her sister's might, the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, so she is not powerful.

"Brother-in-law, what you said is not right, you said that the ancestors dragged your dreams, why did you give it to you alone, aren't we the descendants of the Bai family? ”

"That's it. ”

The relatives around him chimed in.

was blocked in just one sentence, Bai Tang's face turned red, and he couldn't wait to strangle the quacking wild duck in front of him.

That man is right, now the people in the palace and even the subordinates don't take my words seriously, they all respect Wang Yue, what should I do in the future.

And this wild duck, see when Lao Tzu picks up your hair, pulls out your teeth, and turns you into a dead duck, and then see how you bark again.

Wang Yue had actually been hiding aside for a long time to take in everything.

Her heart blossomed: this rough country sister is still of some use at a critical moment.

Looking at the noisy crowd in front of her, as well as Bai Tang, who was speechless by Wang Cuihua, she was very satisfied, and she wanted this result.

She had long expected that there would be this day, she did it on purpose, she needed Bai Tang to understand one thing.

Now everything he has is given by her, and since she can give it, she can naturally take it back.

Wang Yue pinched that the time was almost up, and deliberately went out through the back door, avoiding the crowd, and went around to the gate, pretending that he had just come back.

The carriage at the door was parked indiscriminately, and the people always couldn't change their habit of curiosity, and a few daring poked their heads to see what was going on.

Wang Yue made a look, and the family under his hand understood.

The stick in his hand waved to drive people, "Go, go, get out of here!"

I don't know who shouted, "The mistress is back." ”

Suddenly there was silence, and the originally bustling crowd made way for it.

"Madame is back. Bai Tang went to help with a happy face.

Wang Yue also stretched out his hand and put it on his hand.

The two of them were affectionate and watched the autumn waves.

In fact, they have their own ghosts.

Although he doesn't like his wife, he still has to do a good job on the surface, not to mention that when he thinks that something big will happen soon, why not follow her for a while.

The threshold in front of the ancestral hall of the Bai family is a foot higher than that of ordinary large families, and it is easy for men to say, but if it is a woman, it is common for them to trip if they don't pay attention to it.

Wang Yue turned around, and the little maid behind her moved a wooden chair, she sat down casually, and Bai Tang stood on the side like this, no one felt strange, and the next person did not plan to move another chair.

It was as if he was born to stand next to her and be a foil.

Regardless of appearance and temperament, Wang Yue can indeed be called graceful and luxurious.

Who would connect her with the women of the country.

"How about everyone listening to the concubine say a fair word?"

The first to answer was still Wang Cuihua, "Since my sister has something to say, then we will listen to it." ”

"Actually, this matter is not what Rokuro meant, but the concubine alone, if you have any complaints, just say it, and we will solve it today. ”

"This ......" the crowd looked embarrassed.

Don't look at the woman in front of you who looks mediocre and delicate, but everyone has heard of her methods.

A few of them discussed, thinking that it was better not to go against Wang Yue, anyway, these silver taels were taken for nothing, so don't do it.

"Since it is Mrs. Bai's meaning, I have no choice but to be respectful than obey, there is something to do at home, so I will leave first. ”

Wang Yue nodded, "Then the concubine body will not be sent." ”

"Ah, you see it's going to rain this day, and I remember that my clothes are hanging outside, and I have to rush back to collect them, so I won't accompany you. ”

The people present are all relatives of the Bai family, how can there not even be a maid around to collect clothes, but they are just looking for a reason to go.

Seeing that most of the people left one after another, there were a few who were not afraid.

The so-called people die for money, and birds die for food.

How can you let go of such a pie in the sky.

"Sister-in-law, there is something wrong with what you say, what do you mean. It's not that I don't accept you, it's just that if you don't give a reasonable explanation, it's hard for me to be convinced. ”

Bai Qi, the eighth in the family, is also called Bai Laoba, Bai Tang's younger brother.

"Eighth child, how did you talk to your sister-in-law!"

Bai Tang's black face deliberately reprimanded.

"It's okay, Rokuro, it's just a child. ”

Wang Yue got up, walked in front of Bai Qi, leaned into his ear and whispered a few words, Bai Qi's face became blue and purple.

Then he didn't say goodbye and left in a hurry with his subordinates.

"What did you say to the eight?"

Bai Tang asked.

"But casually scare him a few words, after all, he is still a child. ”

Wang Yue said flatly.

Bai Tang always felt that it was not difficult, his younger brother was good at everything, but he was raised too well by the family since he was a child, and after that incident, he was also a little guilty, plus there was only such a younger brother, and he took care of him very well on weekdays, which made him such a stupid character now.

I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

"What are you still doing here?"

Although Wang Yue was very satisfied with what Wang Cuihua had done before, as we all know, in this mansion, she has never given this so-called sister a good look.

Nowadays, it is natural to do a full set of plays.

"I just want to ask if I can ......"

As soon as she pouted her ass, Wang Yue knew what this sister was going to fart.

I must want to ask her to give more silver taels in private, after all, she has been pampered in the past few years.

"She's so tired, it's just that my father and mother are also talking about you these days, and tomorrow you will go back to your hometown to visit. Come on, send her back to rest. ”

Wang Yue didn't give her the slightest chance to breathe.

After doing all this, she waved her hand, and everyone walked away, and she slowly sat back on the wooden chair, supporting the handle with one hand and her forehead with the other.

"Headache again? I'll rub it for you. ”

Bai Tang was light and heavy, and Wang Yue let out a low groan comfortably.

A dignified prince, the only thing he can do is the ability to massage, which is really ridiculous.

"There is still no news from Baige, the concubine is really ......"

"Shhhh Bai Tang motioned for her to be silent.

"Don't think about these troubles anymore, these days are really hard for you. ”

"It's all worth it for you. ”

"Yue'er. ”

"Rokuro. ”

It's a good one for you and me, but what kind of hypocrisy is hidden behind this, and there is a bit of hypocrisy.
