When the prince arrived at Changqing Lane, he recognized the Bai family without any guards to show him the way, because there were two official servants standing in front of the Bai family's door.
The prince reined in his horse, jumped off and looked at them with his chin raised.
The two officials had obviously never seen the prince before. They clenched the knives in their hands and looked at him warily. However, seeing his awe-inspiring temperament, they did not dare to move for a moment.
The guard quickly caught up from behind, took out the iron sign and said: "This is the Crown Prince."
The two officials were startled and immediately knelt down to pay their respects.
The prince waved his hand, glanced at the wall, and frowned: "There are still assassins?"
The two policemen replied very uneasily: "I haven't seen it yet, but Mr. Xu said that if you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of just in case, so I will wait and watch."
The prince nodded, raised his chin and said, "Knock on the door."
The policeman was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. He immediately knocked on the door, but he actually pushed the door open.
Because they were guarding the door, the door of the Bai family was ajar. As soon as they pushed it open, the servant inside smiled and poked his head out and asked, "Brothers, are you thirsty or hungry? Do you want something?"
Have some snacks..."
When he poked his head out and saw the prince and his guards, the servant immediately stood up straight and looked at the prince with a stern expression. Nono did not dare to say anything.
The prince glanced at him and when he saw the door open, he stepped in directly.
The two gatekeepers got along well with the servants of the Bai family. The main reason was that they were guarding here. In addition to taking money from the yamen, the Bai family would always give them some hard money, so the two of them saw the prince entering.
Then she reminded him quietly: "This is the Crown Prince..."
The servant was so frightened that his legs became weak, so he ran after him.
But the prince had long legs, walked quickly, and had no sense of being in someone else's house. He felt that he had asked someone to knock on the door, and since the door was opened, he was allowed to come in.
The Bai family's house was very square, with one entrance leading to the first, and the second entering the second. There were many servants in the front yard, and the prince glanced at them before heading to the back yard.
The servants who were resting or recuperating glanced at the prince, and after seeing him, they chased after a servant of their family. Although his expression was eager, they did not say anything about stopping him. They treated him as a guest and continued to sit still.
The prince arrived at the backyard unimpeded.
Man Bao and the other three were so frightened that they each took medicine last night and slept until noon.
What was rare was that neither Mrs. Liu nor Mr. Zhuang woke them up, and Wu Lang and the others deliberately walked softly.
By the way, Lao Zhou's family has closed the restaurant and everyone has moved back. There is no other way. No one knows how many assassins the King of Yizhou has hidden in the capital. Only by gathering together can we defend against the enemy.
Manbao and the others woke up from hunger.
Because they were frightened, caught cold, and were injured in the upper body, both Bai Shan and Man Bao had a slight fever. On the contrary, Bai Erlang, although the upper body was also injured, only had nightmares and kicked several times at night, and did not have a fever.
Man Bao prescribed medicine for himself and Bai Shan, and Bai Erlang volunteered to take the prescription and go to his own pharmacy to pick up medicine.
After eating and drinking medicine, the three of them sat in the yard, basking in the sun and talking in a daze.
Wu Lang sat next to Man Bao, handed her an account and said: "This is the bounty given out yesterday, a total of four hundred and twenty gold. Our family should have given out two hundred and ten gold, but in fact we only paid six
Ten gold, and I still owe one hundred and fifty gold."
Bai Shan on the side heard this and immediately said: "Brother Wu Wu, this is not your responsibility. Don't say whether you owe it or not."
"That won't work," Wu Lang insisted, "We even paid a share for renting the house, so we should clearly account for the money, otherwise it will be difficult to communicate with each other in the future."
Man Bao nodded, clapped his hands grandly and said, "Don't worry, I have money."
Wu Lang nodded, "I know you have money."
So he looked at her seriously.
As soon as he heard yesterday that they had promised a large amount of money to the chivalrous people who saw injustice in order to save themselves, Wu Lang took out all the money they had earned from opening the restaurant in the past two months.
It's just over four hundred gold. The Bai family doesn't have much money, but they really don't have that much cash.
After all, who doesn’t have more than four thousand taels of silver at home?
In the end, Mrs. Liu and Yinlou borrowed 1,500 taels of silver, which was enough.
Bai Shan pulled Manbao's sleeve and whispered: "This matter is ultimately caused by my father. How can I ask you to pay for it again? This renting a house is different. This is what we want.
I study and live here, but what happened yesterday was because I wanted to avenge my father."
Man Bao then said: "Don't I also want to avenge my parents? We filed the complaint together, and the King of Yizhou wants to kill both of us."
"But if it weren't for my father, your parents wouldn't..."
"Can you blame your father for this?" Man Bao interrupted him and said: "The evildoer is King Yizhou, and your father is also a victim. How can you blame him? How can you put all the pressure on you and
Grandma Liu, where is Aunt Zheng?"
She said: "To say that this silver should come from the King of Yizhou, but can we ask him for money?"
Before Bai Shan could speak, Bai Erlang shook his head first.
"So let's split it equally between the two of us. Alas, when we recover from our injuries, we still have to buy gifts to give to Feng Zongping and the others. After all, they were also injured because of us."
Bai Erlang said: "And me."
Bai Shan and Man Bao glanced at him angrily and said, "They even said they wanted to live and die together. They asked us for gifts for such a minor injury."
Mrs. Liu in the study endured the soreness on the tip of her nose, looked up at the sky outside the window, and held back the tears in her eyes.
Mrs. Zheng held her arm.
Mrs. Liu turned her head and smiled at her, then looked back at Mr. Zhuang.
Mr. Zhuang was making tea. He noticed her gaze, raised his head and smiled at her: "Madam, sit down and have a sip of tea?"
Mrs. Liu responded with a smile and sat opposite Mr. Zhuang.
The three teenagers in the yard had already finished their quarrel. Manbao felt a little more energetic and went back to the house to get the money.
She pulled the empty box out from underneath, and then took out the money in the system. She only kept some silver, and most of the others were taken out and piled in the box, and then the gold.
Because her head was a little dizzy, she didn't bother to count. She estimated that it was almost enough, so she closed the three boxes that were piled in a mess, and then went out to ask the fifth and sixth brothers to come in and move the boxes out.
Wu Lang was extremely surprised, "I was in need of money yesterday and I came in to look for it. The boxes under you were all empty."
Man Bao snorted and said proudly: "That's a blind trick. If you find it easily, is it still called hiding money?"
"Okay, whatever you say is what it is." Anyway, he was in a hurry yesterday and hadn't had time to look through the cabinet yet. It seemed that most of the money was hidden in the cabinet, but could the cabinet hold so much money?
Friday Lang and Saturday Lang took the money out and counted it.
So when the prince quickly walked into the backyard, he saw seven or eight people squatting on the ground counting money. Maybe they were tired or injured. Bai Shan and Man Bao were sitting directly on a futon, picking up gold.
