Chapter 775 My family is close to the Duan family
Li heard Bai Xingyan talking in her sleep. She told Shao: "The master shouted three words in a daze last night. I didn't fall asleep at that time, and I just heard them. He shouted several times in a row. At first I didn't hear it clearly, nor did I understand what those three words mean, but then I suddenly understood..." Li was about to cry, "Sister Shao, the master called Li Guiren, Li Guiren!"
Shaw's head buzzed, "Who is Guiren Li? Are they from the palace?"
"Sister, I don't know. With such an identity, how could we ever hear about the things in the palace before? I don't know who Li Guiren is, so I'm afraid. I'm afraid that the master will think of a noble lady in the palace. This is a serious crime!"
When she said this, her pretty face was pale, "No, it may not be the noble person in the palace now, but..." She grabbed Shaw Brothers, "Sister, the dead concubine is also surnamed Li, she should not have sat in the concubine position as soon as she entered the palace, right? So what position was she before she became the concubine position? Could she be... a noble person?"
Shaw was also a little panicked, but fortunately she was a little calmer than Li. She desperately recalled the matter about Concubine Li, including the words Li Xian said after summoned her to the palace. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that the water was too deep. If she was not careful, the two of them would capsize with Bai Xingyan's big ship.
"Don't be afraid, no matter whether Li Guiren is Concubine Li Xian or not, that's all the past. Now that people are dead, there is no evidence of death, no one dares to treat our master." Shaw comforted Li, and was also comforting himself. They all knew how dangerous this call of Concubine Li would be, and they also knew that the time they entered the palace was considered to have saved their lives.
I didn't understand why Concubine Li suddenly summoned them into the palace and why he said those strange words.
But now, when you think about it in combination with Bai Xingyan's dream words, the meaning here is very clear.
Shaw advised Li: "You must forget this dream, just pretend that nothing has happened, and just say nothing as a master. The Guo family sent us here to cooperate with the second wife. The meaning of our existence is to help the second wife stabilize the master's heart. So it is enough for us to do this well. If we do this well, our family will be able to live well, and our younger brothers and sisters will have a good way out. Don't worry about other things, don't mention this dream to the second wife, and don't mention anyone."
Li nodded desperately, and she understood that what Shaw taught her was a way to save her life.
I thought I was sent to the Marquis' Mansion as a beauty trick, but I didn't expect that the dignified Duke of Wen actually had such a relationship with the concubines in the palace. This was really a lot of dirty things in the inner courtyard of the mansion, which was completely beyond their imagination.
The convoy returning to Beijing stopped in front of a tea stall. The waiter warmly stepped forward and greeted him: "Dear guests, the mountains are high and the road is far away. Stop and take a rest and have a bite of tea!"
Winter snow lifted the curtain and leaned into her head: "It will take more than two hours before the town in front. Let's have a drink of tea before leaving."
Bai Heran nodded, "Then let everyone get out of the car!" As he said that, he got up first and left the car.
The tea stall on the roadside was not big, and only four tables were placed, so they couldn't sit there. So many people took the tea and took a stool to sit on the side. Some people sat back on the carriage, and ate the dry food they carried with them while eating tea.
Donggong Yuan whispered to Bai Heran: "There is Dezhen in front of us. Should we go around or go directly from Dezhen?" While speaking, he looked at the convoy on his side, "We have a big goal, and it is unlikely to pass through Dezhen quietly. When we came, we took a detour to avoid stooping out of the situation, but it took three more days of footprints to go around, which was not cost-effective."
"Sister Ran, how did you and the Fourth Brother come here?" Jun Lingxi asked her, "Have you taken a detour?"
Bai Heran nodded, "I walked around, we walked in the mountains. But we didn't have horse-drawn carriages, which were slightly faster than the medical team."
Leng Ruonan was confused by the side, "Why do you need to take a detour? Is it not good to pass through Dezhen? So what if you have a big goal? Is this king's land under the world? Can't we just go there casually?"
Jun Lingxi gave her a blank look, "You don't understand, don't inquire. It's not good for you to know too much."
Leng Ruonan originally wanted to choke with her a few words, but you knew a lot, but she swallowed the words back because she suddenly remembered that no wonder she felt familiar when she heard Dezhen. It turned out that when she was at home, she heard her father mention it. There was a Duan family in Dezhen, and the Duan family handed over the imperial seal to the court many years ago.
Seeing Leng Ruonan not speaking, Jun Lingxi nodded with satisfaction, but she was also curious. She knew very little about the Duan family in Dezhen. She had asked Empress Chen before when she was in the palace, but Empress Chen only talked about the Duan family handing over the imperial seal, and the rest were also whispered. Later, she asked her brother a few more questions, but she got only one sentence: Every girl's family, please don't ask about these things.
So this time she didn't plan to let Bai Heran go, so she must ask more information about the Duan family from Bai Heran.
But Bai Heran obviously had no intention of saying that since she sat here and said a few words to Donggong Yuan, she kept lowering her head, turning the tea bowl on the table, and picked it up and sipped a few times, and nodding after savoring it.
Jun Lingxi was a little impatient, "What's the good thing about broken tea in the tea stall? I don't like to drink it with a copper plate and a large bowl."
Bai Heran disagreed, "Folk tea is naturally not as good as what we usually drink, but it also has its own unique taste, which is the taste of the city and can drink fireworks on earth."
Donggongyuan nodded, "That's right, it's just the fireworks on earth. But the fireworks on this tea stall are still less, at least these tea leaves are not qualified." He looked at Bai Heran, his voice lowered, "Master, a large bowl of tea with copper plates and a large bowl of tea, all of which are used to pieces. This is the first time I have seen someone sell this with whole leaves of tea. Master, there is something wrong with this stall."
Jun Lingxi and Leng Ruonan were frightened, and Dong Tianxue and Moyu were also alert. When it was the sword light sitting next to the table, it was the sword light that had no reaction. They only drank tea one by one, and did not speak. However, Bai Heran knew that the sword light was observing, and once there was any abnormal movement, he would respond immediately.
She was not very nervous either. If there was any problem with the tea stall, it means that the person had known that she was coming here for a long time and was waiting here in advance! Waiting on this section of the road, he didn't even leave her the opportunity to surround the mountain. Of course, this is not the key, the key is how many people came to the other party. If it were just a friend of this tea stall, how could he keep her Bai Heran?
"In theory, this water should be poisonous, right?" Leng Ruonan also understood that he was encountering a robber.
Jun Lingxi snorted, "We have all taken the detoxification pills given by Sister Ran. So what if it is poisonous? You should drink them like water." At this point, he put a tea bowl and poured a few mouthfuls of tea in.
Bai Heran didn't stop him, because Jun Lingxi was right. Since he took Xiedu Pills, poisoning was impossible. At most, he felt that the taste of this tea was not very good.
She took another sip of tea, then sighed softly, "It's a pity that this tea stall was originally opened by a good family, but it was snatched away by this group of thieves. It should have been wiped out." She slapped her chin at a table, "There are still blood splashing on the legs of the table!"
Dongmiya Won saw that she was unhappy, but didn't know what to say, so he just said, "Murder for life."
Bai Heran nodded, "Yes, killing someone will pay for his life. However, it is also a sin to die because of me."
She turned her head and went to see the guy at the tea stall. She happened to see someone looking into the distance.
Bai Heran looked down at his eyes, but saw a figure of a Taoist flashing in the forest on the left. Without thinking too much, the sword light had already circled her table, and he whispered: "Master, there are ambushings in front, back, left and right, there are many people, and if you don't think about it, you will have to reach three thousand."
Jun Lingxi and Leng Ruonan began to tremble. Leng Ruonan asked in a trembling voice: "What ambush? Are the robbers? Did they come for silver? If they come for silver, then give them silver. It is better to spend money to ensure safety than to work hard." After that, he looked at Bai Heran and began to defend himself, "It's not that I'm timid, but we don't know how to fight. If we really fight, it will drag you down. There are so many people on the other side, and there are people in front, behind, and there are nowhere to run."
Bai Heran agreed with this point. Indeed, there are too many enemies and there are too many people she has to take into account. Running is a technical job, so don’t mention fighting. If you really want to start, you might have to be wiped out.
But now that she is ready for a siege, can she have other choices?
"Along the way, is Dezhen?" Suddenly, Bai Heran raised his voice and talked about the topic of Dezhen seriously. "I heard that Dezhen is the territory of the Duan family. Speaking of which, my family is also related to the Duan family. My eldest brother is Uncle Duan's biological son. When I arrived, my eldest brother asked me to visit Uncle Duan when I passed by Dezhen, but I was too hasty when I went there, so I didn't disturb me. Today, I was not so hurrying to go back, so I said that I could visit my Duan's mansion."
As he said that, he waved to a young man, "Mr., ask you how the Duan family in Dezhen is going? Are you going from here all the way? Does everyone recognize Duan's mansion in Dezhen? I went into Dezhen and asked, anyone should know?"
The guy was stunned, "You want to go to the Duan family?"
"Yes!" Bai Heran nodded, then showed a playful smile on his face, "I thought, even if I don't go, you have to invite me in different ways. Then I might as well go there on my own initiative, so it looks better, don't you?"
"you……"
"Don't rush to do it!" Bai Heran stretched out his hand and pressed it on the young man's arm that was about to pull the dagger. "We can discuss and cooperate with each other. You can also complete the task better. Wouldn't that be better?"
