Chapter 196 Playing with Bai Yunfei ([-])

"Master Bai... this... I don't know how to speak."

"But it's okay to talk about it." Bai Yunfei was so anxious that his head was sweating, he knew that this matter was a big deal, but he didn't know what it was. Isn't this going to kill him?
"The thing is like this, the little girl has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she worships Dugu Xingyue, the eldest lady of the Dugu Clan, as her teacher. The owner of the villa must know about this."

"I know."

How could Bai Yunfei not know that Gu Xiaoyue was Dugu Xingyue's disciple?Almost everyone in the entire Tang Dynasty knew about this matter.The Gu family was originally very powerful, and the Dugu Clan even covered the sky with their hands. It was a big deal for the young ladies on both sides to form a master-student relationship.It not only improved the Gu family's martial arts cultivation, but also made the relationship between the Gu family and the Dugu clan closer.If these two powers are in harmony, half of Jinling's business will be owned by them.

Gu Xiaoyue slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then sighed: "It's a pity that my master didn't live up to it. He clearly taught me that women are not inferior to men since I was a child, so women don't need men. After being a widow for so many years, she still can't keep up." Stop, now I'm going to get married again, I hope she can get through this time, otherwise I won't have the face to admit that there is such a master. Who is she going to marry this time, Master Bai should also know."

"I know, Master Zong Xin."

This matter has long been spread in the Jianghu, Dugu Xingyue doesn't want her identity to insist on putting her dowry upside down, and she doesn't want a clear matchmaker to marry her, as long as she is a concubine of Master Zongxin.Master Zong Xin had already opened his mouth and couldn't deny it, so he was forced to marry Dugu Xingyue as his wife, and no one in the world didn't know about it.

So Bai Yunfei wasn't too surprised when Gu Xiaoyue brought a warg to Baiyun Village just now.Bai Yunfei knew that Master Zong Xin was her master, so it was reasonable to lend her a wolf as a leg.And vaguely feel that this matter has something to do with Master Zong Xin.

But why did Zong Xin give himself a purple bodhi?Although Zong Xin's reputation is very good, everyone in the world respects and fears him.If you think that you are not a good person, of course you will be afraid, because you heard about his performance in the Chidi cave, several masters in the world have not broken the barrier, Zong Xin actually went in directly, he is no longer a problem of martial arts , that monk can spell.

Bai Yunfei thought he did a good job, but he was unavoidably worried.Wherever Zong Xin went, it was a blow to the local forces.Since it is the Ao Gang in Weinan, everyone used to shout and beat rats crossing the street, but now it is more popular than formal military service.If Zong Xin also wants to bring his Baiyun Village into his sphere of influence... what should he do?Fight him, or seek peace and protect yourself?
Gu Xiaoyue said: "This purple bodhi was sent by my master."

"Oh~" Bai Yunfei was stunned for a moment, but he just came to his senses a little bit, but his brain was still spinning rapidly.Although this possibility has long been thought of, Gu Xiaoyue was unavoidably surprised when she said it.

What exactly is Master Zong Xin going to do?Since giving gifts, there is no hostility, but offering courtesy for nothing is either rape or stealing, let alone being rewarded for nothing.Although this purple bodhi is very attractive, it must not be taken.

"Please tell Master Zong Xin that I will not be rewarded for my meritorious service. This purple bodhi is too precious for me to take." Bai Yunfei is not stupid. Zong Xin will definitely ask for such a precious thing, and this request is very important. It's hard to do, otherwise such an expensive gift would never be given.

If you accept his gift and don't do things for him, it will be tantamount to enmity.As far as other people are concerned, Zong Xin is a big man who cannot afford to offend.So this thing can't be wanted, absolutely can't be wanted.

Gu Xiaoyue said: "Master Bai, don't embarrass me. Master asked me to send it over. If you don't want it... I can't explain it when I go back."

"Take it back quickly. I really can't accept this thing because it's too expensive." Bai Yunfei gritted his teeth, absolutely not accepting this gift, wondering what excessive demands Zong Xin would make.

"Since Master Bai has said so, I can't forcibly keep the things... But Master Bai, is it really okay for you to do this? After I go back, I can only tell Master that you don't give face and refuse to accept his gifts. , I am afraid that you will offend Master Zongxin and the Dugu Clan. And if you deliberately embarrass me, an errand boy, you will also offend the Zhengyou Escort Bureau."

Bai Yunfei gritted his teeth, this matter is really difficult.It's okay to offend Zong Xin, after all, he is an eminent monk who won't wait for an opportunity to retaliate even if he offends once.But offending the Dugu Clan is no joke, since Dugu Xingyue has been keeping accounts, offending her is tantamount to offending the Dugu Clan's wallet.

It is not a trivial matter to offend the Zhengyou Escort. I have a lot of business dealings with the Zhengyou Escort, and I need them to escort the salt to a place farther from the sea to sell.What's more, Zhengyou Escorts are all half-bandits, because Gu Guozhang has changed his ways, but it is only a superficial phenomenon. Bai Yunfei knows very well that Gu Guozhang is a big bandit.The biggest bandit in the world today is Lei Hong, and the second biggest bandit is Gu Guozhang.

No matter which side he was in, he couldn't afford to offend him, and he couldn't figure out the eldest lady's temper. At least he couldn't be allowed to leave like this.

Bai Yunfei said: "Miss Gu, don't worry, it's not impossible for me to accept this gift. It's just... I want to know one thing, why did Master Zong Xin give this gift to me, otherwise I wouldn't dare to accept it."

"Whether this matter is big or small depends on what the owner thinks." Gu Xiaoyue said: "This matter... I really don't know how to open my mouth. How about this, the owner borrows a pen and paper , I wrote down what happened, since I can’t speak, I have to write.”

"Row."

Bai Yunfei also felt strange, what was wrong with opening his mouth.Could it be that Master Zong Xin is planning to usurp the throne and use the power of his Baiyun Village to act?This matter is absolutely not acceptable, Baiyun Village cannot afford such a big scapegoat.If it's a small matter, you agree to it, but if it's a big matter, you have to think twice.

Gu Xiaoyue wrote very slowly, and deliberately avoided Bai Yunfei to let him see, but he was not allowed to leave.How could Bai Yunfei have the mood to take care of other things at this time?She paid full attention to the pen and paper in Gu Xiaoyue's hand.

I don't know how long it took to write, Gu Xiaoyue finally finished writing all the things, then put the paper in an envelope, took the envelope and the box in her hand, left the study and went straight to the front yard.

In the front yard, Gu Xiaoyue handed the box and the letter to Bai Yunfei, and then said: "Master Bai, the whole incident has been written in this letter, don't be angry after reading it. Master Zong Xin is afraid of you Angry, so I sent you a purple bodhi to make you happy. I can’t keep it, so I’m leaving.”

After finishing speaking, Gu Xiaoyue rode a wolf and went straight to the outside of Bengzhou City.

Bai Yunfei couldn't wait any longer, and immediately went back to the study to read the letter by candlelight.When he saw half of it, Bai Yunfei was so angry that his face flushed and he almost spurted blood.He thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that his wife had stolen someone, and Zong Xin even came forward to save this woman's life, using Zibodhi as an introduction to make Gu Xiaoyue delay.

Bai Yunfei said: "What... is there anything I can't say? Actually, I already knew about Xi'er and King Ji... I was a little angry at the beginning, but I've heard that King Ji has this hobby , I wasn’t very angry. I just pretended not to know, why did Xi’er run away? I didn’t send anyone to keep an eye on her.”

Bai Yunfei thought about it for a second: "If I didn't send someone to watch her, then who was watching her? If Xi'er was lying, why did she tell such a lie? Xi'er... King Ji..."

Bai Yunfei's eyes suddenly opened, and he rushed to his bedroom immediately, and then he lifted the quilt, and there was a hidden compartment under the quilt.Bai Yunfei opened the hidden compartment, and it was empty inside. Only then did Bai Yunfei realize that something had happened, something serious had happened.

"Chasing, send someone to chase after me. You must catch up with that bitch Chen Xi. If you live, you want to see people, and if you die, you want to see corpses." Bai Yunfei has been in business for so many years, and has never been so anxious. Now he is really anxious. , because so many years of painstaking efforts are all in this dark space, I can't think of Chen Xi, a bitch, to give all his life's painstaking efforts to the adulterer/husband in order to please King Ji.He has cared for her so much for so many years, and he has been gentle to her since he knew that she had an affair with King Ji.If I knew this was the result, I shouldn't have married her in the first place.

"Hurry up, hurry up..." Bai Yunfei immediately sent someone to chase after him, absolutely not letting the things Xi'er stole fall into King Ji's hands.

………………

After Gu Xiaoyue left Bengzhou riding a wolf, it didn't take long to catch up with Zongxin's large army.In addition to Youyun Shibaqi who was escorting a carriage, people from Zhengyou Escort also rode behind them.They knew that Gu Xiaoyue was responsible for giving Ziboti to Bai Yunfei, so this matter had nothing to do with Zhengyou Escort, not to mention that Gu Xiaoyue called Zongxin Master, if they didn't run away, they might be in danger.

Bai Yunfei is not easy to mess with. Even though he has done a good job externally, there are still some people who know how many "good things" Bai Yunfei has done behind his back, otherwise he would not be able to stand at the top of the salt industry.The people in the Zhengyou Security Bureau happened to know Bai Yunfei's true face. In fact, the most powerful thing in the Zhengyou Security Bureau was not the bodyguards, but the intelligence gathering.

There are very few things that the Zhengyou Bodyguard Agency does not know in Jianghu, because they need to do a careful investigation of each bodyguard, whether these things have been robbed, who is robbing them, and whether they can provoke them.Only by evaluating according to these conditions can we know how much this thing is worth and how many people need to protect it.

Zhengyou Escort has also made a lot of money by selling information over the years, which is why Lei Hong has always maintained a good relationship with Gu Guozhang.Lei Hong doesn't like troublesome things, he only wants to enjoy himself, but whoever dares to offend himself, Lei Hong will kill him immediately.Whoever threatened him, Lei Hong's method also killed him.

Of course Lei Hong would not investigate by himself, and of course leave these matters to his righteous brother Gu Guozhang.Gu Guozhang also wanted to maintain a good relationship with Lei Hong, so that his bodyguard would not be robbed.If he wasn't Lei Hong's brother-in-law, the Zhengyou Escort would never be as prosperous as it is today.
