you got on my tail

"Go and investigate the matter of the fabric." Wei Lan walked a few steps, then slowly backed away, and said with a tentative smile: "Master Bai, it's not that I'm troublesome, but what's the point of you making the emperor angry?"

Bai Xuehe rolled his eyelids, turned the pages of the book expressionlessly and said: "You were outside the door just now?"

"Yes." Wei Lan smiled reluctantly, as if she was afraid that Bai Xuehe would blame her, and after a while she lowered her voice and said, "Master Bai, although there are always people who slander you in private, the emperor has long wanted to kill, and King Yan can't keep you. It was understandable to do that back then, I knew it..."

"Master Wei, why did you say that?" Bai Xuehe looked back and smiled with a very sincere expression.

"You also know that when the emperor ascended the throne, he killed the abolished prince and put King Yan under house arrest." Wei Lan leaned into Bai Xuehe's ear and whispered, "The king of Yan and the abolished prince are on good terms. In the human world, the emperor has been secretly sending Jin Yiwei to investigate. He is afraid that King Yan will use rumors to stir up trouble, so he wants to get rid of King Yan. Ruan Jianghe was once the companion of the deposed prince, so he has to get rid of him. Since you are already standing On the emperor's side, why bother to protect them?"

Wei Lan is not only the commander of Jinyiwei, but also Fu Jiying's confidant. Naturally, it is impossible to casually reveal the secrets. Every word he said should have [-]% of Fu Jiying's instructions. Wei Lan told him at this moment about the deposed prince. It must have been Fu Jiying's hint. Bai Xuehe knew very well that Fu Jiying preferred to watch others guess his intentions than to give orders.

Bai Xuehe lowered his head, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Wei Lan's treacherous and cunning eyes. The abolished prince was obsessed with Xuanxiu and believed that there were ghosts and monsters in the world. As a read, Fu Jiying didn't want him to investigate the case, but asked him to point out that the monster did it. This not only wanted Ruan Jianghe and Yan Wang's life, but also ruined Ruan Jianghe's reputation.

Bai Xuehe recalled something in a trance, finally sighed, and said in a low voice: "Check it out, I'll go back and rest for a while."

Wei Lan helped him up and walked to the gate of the official mansion. Bai Fu was already waiting anxiously beside the carriage. Bai Xuehe climbed into the carriage, and there was indeed a package inside.

The carriage began to sway forward, Bai Xuehe opened the package, and there was still a black wooden box inside, the high-quality red sandalwood was carved with dark patterns of cranes, lifelike, he stared at the wooden box for a moment, and sighed slowly.He is like a crane raised in the imperial garden. Although his wings are sound, once he gets used to the daily feeding in the palace, he can fly anywhere.

"Master, there is a new restaurant opened in the city." Bai Fu asked in a low voice, "You haven't slept all night, how about we go have a meal?"

Bai Fu's voice was full of uncontrollable frustration, Bai Xuehe said "no", and slowly lay down against the carriage.

"Hey, master." After a while, Bai Fu suddenly reined in the carriage and said in surprise, "Who is that?"

Bai Xuehe lifted the curtain of the car, and saw a small figure sitting in front of his small house. He was wearing a very familiar dress, his hair was disheveled, and he was holding something unknown in his arms.

Heidan just ran back from outside the city, but he didn't expect that there was no one in the mansion, so he had to wait at the door alone. He was already very hungry, but he ran anxiously, and fell asleep drowsily after waiting. .

"Thief!" When Bai Fu saw the wooden box in Heidan's hand, he was so frightened that he jumped off the carriage and snatched it. He pushed Heidan hard and cursed sharply, "Do you know what place this is? Do you dare to move things in the White House?"

Heidan was suddenly picked up and pushed again, he stumbled back a step in a daze, and just fell on Bai Xuehe who had just got off the carriage, Bai Xuehe wrapped him around him, and said softly: "Don't hit him!" .”

Heidan was obviously taken aback by Bai Fu's sudden ferocity, and hurriedly put his arms around Bai Xuehe, and buried his head on him. Bai Xuehe raised his hand slightly, and patted that round head unnaturally twice. As expected, Heidan did not come back. Terrified, although he was still holding on to Bai Xuehe's sleeve, he turned around boldly.

There was a bit of grievance in those round eyes, but also a bit of joy, which made Bai Xuehe suddenly feel soft-hearted. Indeed, as Fu Jiying said, everyone knew about him, so Bai Fu would sympathize, and Ruan Jianghe and Yu Wang would feel disgusted. Only this silly monster who can't go home doesn't understand anything.

Bai Fu pointed at the wooden box and said in a panic, "But master, he stole... this..."

"I said don't hit him." Bai Xuehe ordered sharply, and took Heidan's hand to enter the door, "I know this kid, go and get some food."

Heidan didn't expect Bai Xuehe to know that he was hungry, and blushed all of a sudden, but he quickly reacted and said, "Bai Xuehe, I have a friend on the mountain, he is sick, you go and save him."

Bai Xuehe didn't know what was going on with him, not only fed the fat snake of unknown origin again, but also followed him to the suburbs of Beijing thousands of miles away, and brought back a person whose origin was even more unknown. According to Dan's description, I thought this person was a beggar in the mountains, but he didn't expect that although this person was wearing coarse cloth, his long hair was neatly tied high, and there was an exquisite long sword on his waist. Drop off Phoenix.

Heitan leaned aside, nervously staring at Bai Xuehe to feel Xun Luo's pulse, and then asked: "What's wrong with him? What's wrong with him!"

"It's okay, I just fainted from hunger." Bai Xuehe smiled helplessly, "I asked someone to boil the tonic, and it will be fine when he wakes up."

"En, thank you." Hei Dan's small face was tense at first, but when he heard him say that, a smile appeared on Yuan's face, as if he had forgotten that he was the one who called him a bad guy earlier, Bai Xuehe looked at him and smiled , stretched out his hand to touch the round head again, and asked, "Why did you come back, just to save this new acquaintance?"

"No." Heidan shook his head. He didn't want to tell Bai Xuehe that he couldn't find his way, so he argued: "I saw my friend, and I got lost because I wanted to chase him."

"Your friend?" Bai Xuehe poked his head, "It's this kind of person I just met."

"No, it's Ah Li, the city he brought me out of, and now I want him to take me back." Heidan explained patiently, then suddenly remembered something, reached out and grabbed Bai Xuehe's wooden box and hugged it in his arms. "By the way, Xun Luo said, this is not a good thing. I know that bad people forced you to eat it, so I can't return it to you!"

Bai Xuehe was stunned for a moment, his eyes met those determined eyes, he was speechless for some reason, Heidan originally thought that Bai Xuehe was not too bad a bad person, but seeing his current appearance, he couldn't help but classify him as a good person in his heart , and then imitated Ah Li's serious expression and said: "Don't worry, I will protect you in the future."

Bai Xuehe smiled and said in a low voice: "You yourself are always bullied by other monsters, how can you protect me?"

"Of course I have a way." Heidan smiled "hehe", and derived his great trick of pretending to be a rock when encountering difficulties, "When I find the valley, I will take you back together, and the bad guys will not be found."

"That's right." Bai Xuehe also followed his words and reached out to get the fruit plate on the table. Heidan was just worried about Xun Luo's illness and hadn't eaten for a long time, so he started to eat with confidence. Although he was very hungry, he He ate slowly, stopped for a while after eating one, and asked, "Can I have another one?"

Bai Xuehe nodded naturally, but Heidan didn't move at all. When he looked back, he found that the fruit plate on the table was empty.

It was the fruit that Fu Jiying rewarded him. Fu Jiying knew that he was fond of sweets, so the fruit was very sweet, without any sour taste, but it disappeared after eating.

Heidan watched eagerly. Bai Xuehe didn't want to disappoint him, so he took out a piece of silver from the drawer, "There's a market outside, I'll ask Bai Fu to show you around, and you can buy whatever you want, how about it?"

Heidan only heard Ah Li describe how prosperous the world is, so he naturally longed for the outside world, but he was scolded by Bai Fu just now, and his face was obviously not happy, so he softly asked: "I can go by myself ?"

"Okay." Bai Xuehe nodded, and whispered for no reason: "There are many bad people outside, remember to come back early."

Not long after Heidan left, Xun Luo woke up from the bed in a daze. Bai Xuehe pressed his shoulders and said softly: "You are hungry and faint, drink the tonic first."

"Thank you, my lord..." Xun Luo smiled, took the tonic and drank it down. He raised his eyes and saw the crimson official uniform that Bai Xuehe hadn't had time to change, so he changed his words: "Thank you for saving my life, my lord."

Bai Xuehe delivered a bowl of meat porridge, and said with a smile, "You don't need to thank me, it's me...my nephew who brought you back."

Just as Xun Luo was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of the box in the corner from the corner of his eye, and Bai Xuehe immediately said: "You are carrying the imperial court's forbidden medicine, Xitong Ointment, and I have already set it on fire. Since my nephew saved you, It's not good to send you to the government, that's all."

After that, he handed over another ingot of gold.

Xun Luo took the gold without hesitation. Bai Xuehe knew that he should understand what he meant, but unexpectedly, although the man reached out to take the gold, he untied the sword and put it on the table, and said calmly: "I am now Luo Po, only this sword can match this ingot of gold, my lord will accept it for the time being, and will definitely redeem it in the next day."

After finishing speaking, he cupped his fists politely, then turned to leave.

Bai Xuehe didn't stop him at all, he raised his hand to take the sword, Xun Luo let it go gently, suddenly, their eyes met for a moment.

This man was wearing an official robe, and he took money to gag him. It was a very common face of an official. However, although his eyes were as plain as a deep water without waves, they seemed to be filled with envy.

Xun Luo was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't help being dazed.
