Bai Shan and Man Bao jumped off the carriage and ran towards the door of their home, but were successfully intercepted by Liu Lang and others at the gate.
Zhou Lizhong and Zhou Liwei immediately took out a large brazier and placed it at the door, shouting: "Step over the brazier, quickly step over the brazier!"
Man Bao was shocked and asked: "Don't you just need to sprinkle mugwort water?"
"This is the rule of Aunt Rong's hometown. Anyway, let's do it again."
When Man Bao heard this, he jumped directly over the brazier. Bai Shan followed closely, and the friends who followed him also jumped over to join in the fun.
Mrs. Liu and Mr. Zhuang were waiting for them inside the door. When they ran in, they reached out to hold them and breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm finally back, I'm finally back."
There was a commotion in the Bai family, and Bai Dalang immediately took Bai Erlang, Wu Lang and others to greet the guests who came to the house.
In fact, the people here today are all classmates or friends of Bai Shan and his friends. Because they are similar in age and have many topics to talk about, they don’t need to greet them specially.
Man Bao ran to take a bath and change clothes first, and also washed his hair.
While twisting her hair, Zhou Lijun asked, "Sister-in-law, I heard from my husband and others that all the private soldiers raised by the King of Yizhou in Suizhou were captured. Can this matter be forgotten?"
Man Bao happily said: "That's about right. We'll just have to wait for the court to pronounce the verdict."
"Will King Yizhou die?"
Man Bao frowned, "Not necessarily, but he has done so many bad things, and there must be many people in the court who want him dead. Anyway, this has nothing to do with us."
"Then will they still harm you and Master Bai Shan?"
"All the private soldiers he raised have been caught. Even if he hates us, he should be restrained under the emperor's feet, right?" Manbao himself is not very sure. After all, because King Yizhou died so many people, he
How could she predict their behavior if the death penalty was not possible?
"Then you'd better be more honest these days and don't go out if you have nothing to do."
"I know. I'll tell Ji Shitang later that I won't sit in court for now. I'll just visit the Xiang brothers in prison every time."
After the aunt and nephew reached an agreement, Zhou Lijun tied her hair with a strip of red cloth and let her go out to play.
Ji Hao, who was sitting in the yard talking, turned around and saw Man Bao coming out wearing new clothes, with mist between his brows and eyes, and couldn't help but be startled.
Feng Zongping turned around with a smile. Seeing him like this, he couldn't help but cough slightly.
Bai Shan also happened to come out with his hair down. Seeing Man Bao's hair tied up, he stretched out his hand and touched it, "Did Li Jun hang it for you?"
Man Bao nodded.
Bai Shan turned to look for Bai Erlang and said, "Bai Erlang, you can twist my hair later."
Bai Erlang pointed to the stool next to him and said, "Come and bask in the sun, we'll be done in a moment."
Bai Shan took Man Bao to bask in the sun. They rarely saw the sun during their time in prison, so they were whiter than before. In comparison, Bai Erlang was darker.
Yin You poured a cup of tea for the two of them, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Here, let me offer you a cup of tea first. Congratulations on your safe release from prison."
"Yes, yes, this is what I need to drink," Liu Huan quickly raised his glass. "Finally, there is no need to go to the Imperial Academy to block the holes and offer wine. Alas, the number of times I have seen the Kongs to offer wine in the past few days is more than the number of times I have seen them in more than ten years combined.
There are many."
Feng Zongping smiled and said: "It sounds like you used to see Kong Jijiu often."
"Although we only meet after the elders, we can still see each other during holidays, not to mention that I am still studying in the Imperial College."
Bai Shan asked, "Did the Imperial College say what to do with me?"
Feng Zongping smiled and said: "What should I do with you? You are now a celebrity in school. How many people are waiting to see your true face after you go to school."
Bai Shan leaned back in fright, "You're not going to fight me, are you?"
Yin You said with a smile: "Everyone praises you for not being afraid of the powerful. Even Wu Xueguan, who has never been friendly to you, praised you very much."
Bai Shan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
Feng Zongping was very interested in their imprisonment, and Bai Shan did not hide it, simply talking about their life in prison.
In fact, there was nothing much to say. The prison was really boring. Except for the two patients who gave them something to do, the rest was just too boring.
Feng Zongping's eyes flashed and he asked: "Do you four live in a cell?"
His eyes fell on Man Bao.
Bai Shan stood in front of Man Bao and said, "She is a doctor. If we don't live together, the other two people may die."
Feng Zongping smiled and nodded.
Liu Huan was more concerned about another point and lowered his voice and asked: "So you came to Beijing to report on the King of Yizhou?"
Bai Shandao: "Yes, it doesn't count as no."
"If it is, it is not, and if it is not, it is not. What does it mean that yes does not count as yes?"
Bai Shandao: "Originally we planned to go to Beijing to study in a few years, but because of the incident with King Yizhou, we decided to go to Beijing early. What a coincidence, as a meritorious official, I was called to study in Beijing.
Here it comes.”
Feng Zongping was suspicious, "Did you really find out this year that King Yizhou was the one who killed your father's enemy?"
Bai Shan nodded, "I always thought that my father died fighting bandits. How did I know that he was killed by King Yizhou?"
Feng Zongping sighed, "Respecting my grandmother is considered bearing the humiliation."
Bai Shan nodded in agreement, and then looked at each other with Man Bao, wanting to find his grandmother.
But Mrs. Liu knew that these children must have a lot to say, so she did not disturb them, but went to the garden to talk with Mr. Zhuang.
They received the official document from Feng Shangshu early this morning, and the letter from Wei Zhi came earlier than the official document.
It was said that the private soldiers had been discovered and surrendered, but Mrs. Liu always felt a little uneasy. "This is too smooth. It's calm and the dust has settled like this?"
Mr. Zhuang said: "This is just the beginning. King Yizhou has not yet begun to convict people. There are also those who have contacted him. These people must also be arrested."
"But I still feel that things in Yizhou are going too smoothly."
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said: "It's so smooth. Things in Beijing are also going smoothly. Although there are some disturbances during this period, they are all thunder and rain. We should be careful and the children should stay at home for the time being.
If you can’t go out, don’t go out.”
Mrs. Liu sighed, "It's a pity that we are separated from Mr. Wei by one level, so it's hard to ask many questions."
Mr. Zhuang said: "I'm afraid he won't answer if I ask him. It is a confidential matter after all."
Mrs. Liu nodded, looked at the time and said, "Brother Xiang hasn't come out yet. I'll go and tell Mr. Xiang Liu that tomorrow I'll ask Man Bao to go to the prison to take a look and deliver the prepared medicine."
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Okay, Xiangjia people have to stabilize their hearts. This time, it's all thanks to them."
Man Bao and Bai Shan also paid special attention to Feng Zongping today, and then highlighted their other two partners who were still in prison.
Feng Zongping knew what they were going to say and said with a smile: "Don't worry, since Uncle Tao said that, you will definitely be able to go in and see people. Now the wind is not as tight as it was some time ago, and half of the dust has fallen.
