The fire was blazing, and the blue pastoral was only slightly darker than during the day.
The maids and bookboys running around naked have been taken to the front yard by the guards, and the crowd of people watching around them have no chance to feast their eyes on them.
But beside Lu Qian, there were still several "Ryu Xiancai" from the Bai family.
These guys are about the same age as Lu Qian, and some are two years younger than him. However, due to their family background, their academic performance is unknown, but their skills in goblin fighting are already quite superb.
Lu Qian's anger is a bit wicked.
These people, such as Yuxiancai, were awakened by the fire and jumped out of their residence without even bothering to put on their clothes.
They were tied up by Lu Qian's men and were lying on the cold ground. Several people's skin had turned blue from the cold. If they were not treated, they would definitely develop serious problems due to the cold.
Looking around, someone has already turned their attention to this side.
Someone was "chichi", laughing deliberately, and commented in a low voice on the figure and appearance of a few unlucky guys.
Lu Qian even heard someone mixed in the crowd, deliberately holding his throat and yelling in a strange voice, "Brother Lu, you are quite exquisite and small!"
Bai Lang, Bai Xi and the others looked at Lu Qian expressionlessly.
All around, among the guards of the Bai family, there were a few with a chilling aura, and they quietly took two steps closer.
"They are... senior brothers?" Lu Yi smiled "hehehe". He pointed at several naked human bodies in great surprise and shouted: "Why are they naked in the middle of the night?"
Lu Qian said seriously: "My uncle of the Bai family is talking about the 'ancient rituals' when he governs the world. It is the 'ancient rituals' that were used by the saints three generations ago."
"Lu Qian is not talented and has also read some ancient ritual books."
"The 'ancient etiquette' is strict, and there are strict rules for living, sitting, and sleeping... It seems..."
Lu Qian made an expression as if he was hesitant to speak.
Bai Changkong himself is a person who governs "ancient rites". He relied on his elaboration of "ancient rites" and his vigorous promotion of "ancient rites" to become a "moral model" in Haojing and a cultural and educational leader in Haojing.
A signboard.
The ancient rituals are strict and penetrate into all aspects of life.
For example, the ancient rituals stipulate the details of the couple's wedding ceremony. For example, the number of times the couple should perform the ceremony each year, the day of the month, the number of times per month for the first wife, and the number of times per month for the wife.
Concubine, how many times a month, etc., all have strict demands.
For example, if a person respects etiquette, when he rests at night, the clothes he wears must also follow etiquette.
You don't have to wear any clothes to perform the salute, but after the salute, you must take a shower, change clothes, correct your thoughts, correct your body posture, follow the etiquette of "sleeping", and fall asleep upright.
Only those who respect etiquette can be regarded as a gentleman.
These "younger men" of the Bai family, even if the house is on fire, they run around naked in the middle of the night. There is no doubt that they do not abide by etiquette.
Bai Changkong lives by etiquette, is famous for etiquette, manages his family with etiquette, and uses strict etiquette requirements to restrain his friends, students, subordinates, etc. around him.
His grandchildren have destroyed the 'etiquette' he advocated and followed!
Lu Qian's fire was like a sledgehammer, hitting Bai Changkong's seven inches hard.
The faces of Bai Xi and others became extremely ugly. They stared directly at Lu Qian, as if they wanted to pounce on him and tear him to pieces.
Only sparse laughter came from the crowd around. Many sensible people straightened their expressions and looked at the Bai family with solemnity.
If Bai Lang and others cannot give a reasonable explanation for this matter, the Bai family's archway will collapse, and the clear name and reputation that Bai Changkong has worked so hard to build throughout his life will definitely be completely destroyed.
Once the news of tonight's incident spreads out, do you believe that General Lewu will let all the soldiers of the Forbidden Army take to the streets and beat gongs and drums to make Bai Changkong famous?
Bai Lang clasped his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and then looked at the bright-eyed onlookers around him, many of whom were already blushing from holding back their emotions.
He realized that Lu Qian, who had always been easily manipulated by them in their hearts, had actually created two huge crises for them in just two days.
"Has this kid pretended to be crazy and acted like a fool for sixteen years...or is there some expert guidance behind his back...or is it just pure luck?" Bai Lang stared at Lu Qian with a sharp look.
Hope it's good luck.
It would be a bit scary if there was an expert's guidance behind the scenes. A powerful opponent was eyeing the Bai family.
If Lu Qian had been pretending to be crazy and acted like a fool, and everything he did, including joining the eunuchs, leading people to put out fires, etc., was intentional, then it would be even more terrifying.
Bai Lang suddenly shouted loudly: "We have learned cultural and martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family. What we, the cultural and educational disciples, have done in our lives is just for the country and the country of Dayin, and for the people of Dayin."
Bai Lang raised his hands, cupped them in the direction of the imperial city, and said loudly: "We, the disciples of culture and education, are loyal and loyal, just for the sake of the eternal stability of the country and the peace of the people. For this reason, we can throw our heads, shed our blood, and devote ourselves to
I will live my whole life without any regrets."
"I, Mr. Bai, should practice martial arts and strengthen my body so that I can better serve the country. Isn't this what I should do?"
Bai Lang held his head high and looked proud.
Lu Qian laughed hastily. He put the tiger-headed golden gun at his feet and clapped with both hands: "Well said, well said, really, well said, ah ah ah, well said!"
Lu Qian opened the door and shouted loudly, applauding Bai Lang as if he were watching a play in a theater, causing laughter to come from all around.
Many people looked back and forth between Bai Lang and Lu Qian.
Many people know that now, the Bai family and Lu Qian have become mortal enemies.
However, it doesn't seem bad. From the moment Lu Qian joined the palace guard, the Bai family was already his mortal enemy. What's the point of adding more hatred?
Bai Lang looked at Lu Qian and said slowly: "My son is at a good age to study literature, practice martial arts, and strive to improve."
Lu Qian laughed: "Learning literature and martial arts with your butt naked?"
Bai Lang sneered proudly: "Ignorant child, do you know that some advanced martial arts skills need to be tempered with medicinal soup at midnight (23:00-1:00) and noon (11:00-13:00)
Only by refining the physical body, using elixirs to strengthen the internal organs, and using advanced techniques can we practice normally?"
Bai Lang pointed to the sky: "At this time, it is the time for my son, the Bai family, to do his night homework... Is it possible for them to wear full clothes and robes according to the etiquette when tempering their bodies in the bathtub?
"
Someone's supportive voice came from a distance: "I see, Li Zheng, the magistrate of Dali Temple in Xianguan, has indeed heard of such profound and profound techniques. My son of the Lu family, you have little knowledge, so don't make a fool of yourself here."
Gradually, voices of support gradually sounded, and eventually became the mainstream of the surrounding crowd.
Countless people have praised and said that the gentlemen of the Bai family are really concerned about the country and the people, and they practice diligently even in the middle of the night. They are really a model for literary disciples and all scholars in the world.
Some people applauded and praised: "It is conceivable that the gentlemen of the Bai family will surely become famous and soar into the sky in the future. What else can we envy besides such diligence and hard work?"
There were also a few old voices scolding their son-in-law loudly.
"You bastards, look at the gentlemen of the Bai family. Their family backgrounds and backgrounds are much better than yours. Yet they are so diligent and diligent. You..."
Lu Qian's eyes widened.
He stared blankly at Bai Lang, who looked upright, and couldn't find anything to say for a moment.
Those bookboys and maids who could be used as witnesses had been taken to the front yard long ago, and they were probably wrapped in countless layers of clothes now.
If we could catch those maids and bookboys in action... Haha, you can't say that your Bai family's maids and bookboys are practicing all kinds of profound secrets in the middle of the night, right?
However, no witness was caught.
Lu Qian laughed "haha", and he personally helped up a Bai Jiaerlang who was turned green from the cold and almost frozen solid. With a pull of his hands, he braided the alloy wire mixed with beef tendon into a rope and easily tore it off.
Supporting him, he brought him to Bai Lang respectfully.
"I was rude, but I also have good intentions. Please forgive me, uncle."
Lu Qian threw the naked and talented gentleman into Bai Lang's arms and quickly changed the subject: "The fire has almost burned out. The assassin has also been killed. It seems that there is nothing wrong with me here."
"Uncle Bai, let's get closer and closer in the future... If you don't see your neighbor when you look down, we are just across the street."
Lu Qian smiled, glanced at the killed and seriously injured subordinates on the ground, and cupped his hands towards Bai Lang: "It's a pity that I couldn't get married to Sister Wei Shuang. Alas, I'm not lucky enough."
Bai Lang and others remained silent.
They looked at Lu Qian expressionlessly, as if they were looking at a dead person.
Lu Qian glanced at the rockery with a smile, pulled out the spear beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, let the brothers restrain themselves."
The supervisors worked silently, rescuing the dead and wounded, and followed Lu Qian to evacuate Lantian Garden with their dead and wounded colleagues.
The surrounding monasteries and pavilions, as Lu Qian said, were almost burned. Everything that could be burned was burned out. The flames gradually weakened, and there was no need for the fire brigade to take action.
Bai Lang, Bai Xi and others looked at Lan Tianyuan, which was almost burned to the ground, at several women who committed suicide by taking poison, and at several nephews who had fainted from the cold. They resisted the urge to vomit blood and began to greet the people who were rushing.
The garrison, government officials, Wuhou, and neighbors who came to put out the fire.
After all, the Bai family is prestigious.
The fire here disappeared, and no one was confused about how the fire was caused. Many respectable people exchanged greetings with Bai Lang and others, and then took people away one after another.
Lu Qian took his people back to the station and spent the middle of the night looking for coffins to bury the six guards who had died in the battle.
They knocked on the door again and invited the famous doctors from Yushunfang to come over and treat the injured warden's injuries.
In short, Lu Qian and the others did not have a good rest all night.
The Bai family didn't rest either.
Bai Lang, Bai Xi and others were in the front yard, questioning their own guards, especially the guards who were on duty at Lan Tianyuan last night, asking them if they had seen anyone deliberately setting fire.
But these guards swore that they did not see the person who set the fire.
They swore that "no one" could set the entire Lantian Garden on fire so quickly under their noses.
The Bai family was also busy all night. They traced the cause of the fire, but did not find any useful clues.
Early the next morning, Bai Changkong, who was not at home last night and was summoned overnight by Bai Lang's men, rushed into his mansion on a fast horse.
Not long after Bai Changkong entered his house, a purple-robed eunuch and a dozen red-robed eunuchs came to his door smiling.
