"General, it was I who brought the head of the Bai family here. Shi Ming can guarantee that the head of the Bai family did not have any malicious intent in coming this time. It was just that the two of us had a talk in front of the humble house on the mountainside. I think the general is worth talking to.
The head of the Bai family brought him here because of the value of his conspiracy."
Shi Ming said frankly that he did not shy away from telling all the things that the two had previously talked about in private. He was not worried about Yu Shuheng becoming suspicious. The foundation of trust between the two had been honed as solid as a rock through years of fighting.
When Yu Shuheng heard this, he actually swung away the three jade hairpins in the courtyard, and then did not open the door to welcome guests. There was also a seriously injured little girl in the house. General Gao just sat on the ground, sitting on the steps in front of the courtyard and looking at the three people.
, said: "Sir Bai just said that Xuezouying will never give up in the future. If he states it so bluntly, does that mean that I can take action against Mr. Bai now?"
Shi Ming, dressed in green clothes, walked silently to Yu Shuheng's side and also sat on the steps. Now only the master and servant in the courtyard were still standing.
Bai Chi nodded, and the fox-faced maid beside him walked to the corner of the yard. With her thin wrist, she lifted a stone stool weighing nearly a hundred kilograms with one hand and placed it easily behind her master. Bai Chi took the opportunity to sit down and took a look at the surrounding environment.
He said nonchalantly: "The general is really elegant. It is rare to be able to manage such an elegant garden in the Baidi City where there is so much money. It is small and exquisite, which actually subverts my image of the general's rough battlefield."
Cognition. This green bamboo species... is unusual. It has golden leaves and is so delicate. Can a grown man like the General support him?"
Yu Shuheng was too lazy to deal with Bai Chi's clichés. He raised his thumb and pointed his thumb behind him and said politely: "Master Bai, if you want to chat, I'm afraid you really don't have the time to do so today. You might as well just say what you have to say."
Guan Shanyue's current appearance in the room was created by Bai Chi. Even with Yu Shuheng's tolerant temper, Bai Chi's airs were a bit unbearable.
The man in purple raised his hands in surrender and said: "Okay, okay, the general and Mr. Bai can't even talk to each other in three sentences. I know myself. Then I will speak more clearly."
As he spoke, Bai Chi looked over Yu Shuheng's tall shoulders and looked into the room, as if he could see the girl lying on the bed. Her brows were tightened and her whole body was weak and limp.
There were veins popping up on Yu Shuheng's forehead. This was the first time that this prince from the southwest countryside was angry.
Bai Chi looked at General Gao Da's reaction with satisfaction, nodded and said with a smile: "The general really cherishes his subordinates, or in other words, does he value this little girl?"
Yu Shuheng remained silent, and Shi Ming silently sat farther away. This was a sign of Yu Shuheng's anger, which is very familiar to scholars.
Bai Chi said slowly: "In the southwest, it would be difficult to produce such a genius in a hundred years. The general should cherish him. So I just said that if the Xuezuoying Camp does not let it go, the general will be very distressed?
My dearest subordinate cannot even use his fists and feet, so he will be unable to move within the city, and I am afraid that the Snow Camp will not give the little girl time to recover..."
Shi Ming suddenly blinked because he felt that Yu Shuheng suddenly calmed down.
Uncle Yu Heng smiled softly and said with deep meaning: "So?"
"So we might as well conspire," Bai Chi suddenly changed the topic and said with cold eyes, "How will the farce between Xue Zouying and Yu Chai in Baidi City end?"
Yu Shuheng said disappointedly: "Is the head of the Bai family compromising? Can I think that you, an old fox, are playing a big game?"
The man in purple burst out laughing, and it took him a long time to stop laughing and said: "The general is really discerning! It is really a big chess game. Even the scholar next to the general may not be able to understand it all! But the general can guess me.
What’s the next move?”
Shi Ming was on pins and needles all of a sudden. He didn't expect that the other party would point the finger at him. He looked back at Yu Shuheng and said helplessly: "General, don't look at me. I'm just a little better than a stinky chess player like you."
Yu Shuheng laughed angrily and slapped the scholar on the back. He finally returned to his original relaxed state and said to the man at the foot of the stairs: "I still don't understand what the Prime Minister is planning."
Seeing that the atmosphere of the negotiation had finally eased a bit, Bai Chi stopped beating around the bush and began to sigh: "To be honest, General, the farce between our two parties in the city in recent days has aroused dissatisfaction among some old guys, and even some people
Come to my house in person and give me a warning. If you continue to act like this in the imperial capital, even if I am the minister of the court, you can still teach me a lesson."
When Yu Shuheng heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight. Of course, he also knew that the old guy in Bai Chi's mouth was that group of people. Those people might not be considered the people in power in Baidi City, and they never interfered with those in the court.
It's a common thing, but they are the masters of this Baidi City and the check and balancers.
The world is so big that there can be an imperial capital anywhere, but there is only one Baidi City. This is what the old man who met him in private told him before entering the city. No matter how you turn your hands in the court, you will turn your hands for the clouds.
For rain, but as long as you cross the line in their perception, you will be out.
"As expected, someone will be looking for you soon." Bai Chi glanced outside the yard and was unsure. Maybe those old guys saw that he had already explained the situation here and were too lazy to make an extra trip.
.
"But the general also knows that once the fight between the two camps starts, it is difficult to stop it. Since blood has already been seen, there is no reason to stop the sword. This is the rule that has been erected in everyone's heart since we started training pigeons in our Snow Camp.
I believe Yuchai also has similar regulations."
Yu Shuheng nodded. If he stopped now, the previous losses would have been too great. Yuchai might not be able to shake Xuezuo Camp's position in Zhongzhou and would have to withdraw from this stage early.
Bai Chi hit it off and said: "So I propose that young people go to compete in a bigger world."
Yu Shuheng and Shi Ming looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.
This reaction was still within Bai Chi's expectation. The middle-aged man in purple clothes and jade explained: "I have expelled the young man in white clothes from Baidi City and asked him to go all the way south. If the general wants to take a gamble, he might as well let Yu
Chai Chai will follow, I believe the result will not disappoint the general."
"Prime Minister Bai, you are forcing the fishhook into my mouth..." The tall general looked coldly at the man in purple sitting in the courtyard below, suddenly feeling tired from talking to him.
Bai Chi shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said frankly: "At least outside the city, the little girl with the jade dragon head will not be surrounded and suppressed by the Xuezuo Camp. I need a pure martial artist at the peak of the Five Realms to protect me at all times.
, this matter is untouchable."
"What Prime Minister Bai said is partly true and partly false. It's really hard to tell clearly." Yu Shuheng still had a hesitant attitude.
Bai Chi waved his sleeves, stood up, and said with the intention of leaving: "It doesn't matter, General, just think about it carefully. I can only say that this matter is good for both you and me, and there is no harm at all."
Yu Shuheng was silent. His rival actually held the advantage in front of him and told him that he was the most difficult white fox in the wild to take the bait. It was difficult to make a conclusion after a short period of time.
The man in purple did not forget to turn around before leaving the hospital and said: "By the way, I would like to remind the general again that there are rumors spreading that there is a piece of jade found in a big city in the south."
The figure in purple disappeared outside the courtyard gate, leaving only a tall figure sitting on the steps in front of the courtyard with its head bowed.
——————
"Little guy, I don't object to you trying to catch Na and Guo Gong. Whether he bites the hook or not is up to him, although I think he has probably taken the bait. But are you being too cruel to drive that kid out of the city?"
As soon as she came out of the general's house, the originally respectful fox-faced maid immediately changed her face, and she almost seemed to be riding on Bai Chi's head to show off her power.
"Hey, hey, that kid was almost beaten to death by that little girl, and it has long left a shadow in his heart. Now you regard him as an abandoned son, deliberately acting as bait for Na Heguo Gong, so you are not afraid of that kid.
You have a good body and are completely ruined?"
Fox Mask kept chattering. She was really worried about the young man who came out of the ancestral home. After all, he was a good young man who had watched him grow up. It was really unbearable for him to be abused like this in the hands of Bai Chi.
Bai Chi was impatient, and finally couldn't help showing his irritation and said: "No matter how good the embryo is, it is just a piece of good iron. How can it be called a famous sword in the East Continent without being beaten? This is a good time to change from cultivating immortality to domineering.
, if he cannot survive, he will not be worthy of the public expectations placed on him by the old guys."
"You really think you are such a tough guy! You bastard!" the fox mask screamed.
On the bluestone road, the fox-faced maid suddenly became even more angry. As the two of them were noisy, there was a vague tendency to start a fight.
————
In the General Courtyard, the door behind him was pushed open quietly, and a woman dressed in a graceful dress walked out. Yu Shuheng still sat there, not looking back.
Shi Ming looked at the person who came, and the other person's gentle voice was as moist as an empty mountain after the rain: "Xiao Yue'er's physique... is really terrifying. I just gave you some guidance, and the natural jade bones have almost healed on their own.
He may even be able to walk on the ground later in life, but the inside still needs to be well nourished. I have never seen such a terrifying physical condition since I started practicing medicine.”
General Gao Da remained silent. After a long silence, he suddenly asked a strange question: "When can Xiao Yue'er go to the ground?"
The woman immediately said angrily: "General! She is still a patient! She is even more of a child!"
How could she not hear the conversation in the courtyard just now?
"Shi Ming, what do you think?" Yu Shuheng asked directly to the scholar next to him.
The scholar looked at the woman with an angry face in fear, and said timidly: "General... biting the hook is inherently bad... but you can't hold back the scent of bait...
Besides, biting the hook is one thing... whether or not you can catch it is another matter... it also depends on the angler's arm strength..."
General Gao stood up and finally said, "I understand." He walked out of the courtyard.
The furious woman was left alone and could no longer maintain her graceful temperament. She stood on the steps and yelled at the retreating figure: "Yu Shuheng! You are crazy! There is no hope!"
That night, two figures in green clothes rode out of the city on horseback from the south gate of Baidi City, carrying the general's order to pass without any obstruction. The leader was a woman with a ponytail on her head, carrying a long knife as high as a person, with a pale face that had not recovered from a serious illness.
Only those dark green eyes were full of energy.
On this day, two young men left this isolated city in the former imperial capital of Zhongzhou. This day was the day before the wedding of Jin Mansion in Changjun City. On this night, the Jin Mansion was filled with colorful decorations, the atmosphere was full of joy, and everything in sight was red.
