Chapter 1187 Is it bad to deceive me with the sword?
"Where is Xiangping City?" Li Shuyi asked.
Bai Xiaowen briefly searched the information in his memory: "It is also in Youzhou, Liaodong area. Speaking of which, it is not too far from Beiping City, the city where Youzhou Governor's Mansion is located."
"Oh..." Li Shuyi nodded and said with some worry, "Our mission line is all in Youzhou, but now we have to go to Jizhou to waste time... Alas, I don't know if there is enough time to complete the mission.
"
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "Who said going to Jizhou is a waste of time?"
…
In the evening of that day, Bai Xiaowen, who was wrapped in a fur robe and covered with snow, led ten cavalrymen and rushed to Yecheng.
The city gates of Yecheng have been closed.
"Open the door quickly!" Bai Xiaowen shouted loudly, holding a torch.
"Who is under the city?" the guard captain stood on the city gate tower and shouted the same question.
"I am Yuan Xi, the governor of Youzhou!"
The captain guarding the gate was startled and then said: "Do you have any evidence?"
"Here is the seal of the Governor of Youzhou!" Bai Xiaowen took out the seal and ribbon of the Governor of Youzhou from his bag.
A hanging basket hung from the city gate, and the seal and ribbon were quickly hoisted up.
After checking it, the gatekeeper did not open the door immediately. He hung up the seal and ribbon and said, "It is getting late and the lights are dim, so it is difficult to verify the authenticity! Please camp outside the city overnight and open the city gate early tomorrow morning!"
Before Bai Xiaowen could speak, the ten cavalrymen behind him began to curse.
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes. The captain guarding the gate seemed a bit deliberately trying to embarrass him.
With a cry, Bai Xiaowen drew out his sword (an illusion of the rules of the spiritual world) and shouted sternly: "I am the governor of Youzhou, the son of a general, and I was ordered to return to my hometown to visit my relatives. Since you have passed the seal and ribbon, you still dare to use excuses to stop me? Bullying my sword
Is it disadvantageous?"
Under the firelight, the captain guarding the gate felt fearful when he saw Bai Xiaowen's majestic demeanor.
After a moment's hesitation, the gatekeeper gave in and said, "Second Young Master, please wait a moment. I also obeyed Third Young Master's orders to strictly guard the city and not allow irrelevant people to enter the city, so I dared to stop him. Since it was Second Young Master in person,
Just open the door, little one."
After the creaking suspension bridge was lowered, Bai Xiaowen grunted and rode into the city, followed by ten cavalrymen behind him.
After entering the city, the murderous look on Bai Xiaowen's face disappeared without a trace. Facing the somewhat uneasy gatekeeper, he said: "It is your duty to guard the gate. I will not blame you, but I will block it after checking the seal."
, it’s your fault. Since it’s your first offense, I’ll forgive you for now; if you do it next time, I’ll definitely kill you!”
The captain guarding the gate wiped his sweat and watched Bai Xiaowen's dozen or so horses march straight into the middle street and drive away. He secretly muttered in his heart, when did the second young master become so majestic? He was actually like the general, making people unable to think of disobedience.
.
Not to mention the captain guarding the gate, the ten elite knights who followed Bai Xiaowen also felt a little shocked in their hearts.
It was already rare for Bai Xiaowen to travel in the snow, give up his comfortable carriage, and go on the hard journey with them. Now he was angrily scolding the gatekeeper in front of the city gate. His strong style was completely different from the ordinary second son.
.
Bai Xiaowen is not afraid of being thought to be acting abnormally - the world of the Three Kingdoms is different from the fantasy world of the West. The awareness of "different worlds" is very low, and basically no one would think of Yuan Xi being "travelled"
possibility.
Especially for those acquaintances in Yecheng who have not seen Yuan Xi for three months, it will not be difficult to explain the change in Mr. Yuan's temperament.
Bai Xiaowen didn't even change his clothes and went straight into the General's Mansion. While waiting for the announcement, he opened a picture of leaf-covering peonies and muttered a few lines of poetry, which made Li Shuyi curl her lips secretly.
At this time, it was time to light the lamp, and Mrs. Liu had not yet gone to bed. When her servants reported that the second young master had arrived, she announced that Bai Xiaowen had come in to meet and talk.
"You kid, why are you covered in snow and cement and in such a miserable state!" Mrs. Liu was shocked when she saw "Yuan Xi".
Bai Xiaowen followed the etiquette of the Han Dynasty and gave a great gift to Mrs. Liu, his biological mother, and said:
"The child set out to visit his mother yesterday. Unexpectedly, he fell ill on the way and fell asleep for most of the day. When he woke up today and saw that the date had arrived, he was so anxious that he led his people and horses to come ahead. The journey was not tidy up, and he did not bring any gifts to his mother.
Come, I am disrespectful to my mother, and I hope you will be forgiven!"
"Oh... you kid!" Mrs. Liu usually didn't like this second son very much, but for some reason, she found him particularly pleasing to her eyes when she saw him today.
Seeing Bai Xiaowen's head full of sweat mixed with snow, Mrs. Liu was worried that he was ill, so she quickly ordered four slaves to help Bai Xiaowen bathe and change clothes.
After taking a shower, Bai Xiaowen changed into a fantasy look, which made her look even more refined. Even her average-to-upper appearance, which she inherited from Yuan Xi, was driven by her temperament, making her look handsome.
When I went to see Mrs. Liu again, there were already a few more people in the hall.
Bai Xiaowen first saw the cheap wife, Zhen Mi.
Without him, Zhen Mi was too dazzling. She stood quietly behind Mrs. Liu. She was not in the C position in terms of position, but she eclipsed Mrs. Liu who was in the C position.
The snake bun is tied up, exposing the forehead. It is said that men are afraid of showing their heads, and women are afraid of showing their foreheads. It stands to reason that such a bun without bangs can easily make a beautiful woman's appearance drop down a notch, but Zhen Mi is 360
Beauty without blind spots.
Bai Xiaowen's concentration was strong, and his eyes just flickered from Zhen Mi's face to the hall.
In addition to Mrs. Liu, there was also a young man in the hall, a young man, both dressed in luxurious clothes and exuding a hint of arrogance.
Needless to say, Bai Xiaowen knew that these two people must be his cheap brothers, the eldest Yuan Tan and the third Yuan Shang.
"Second brother, why are you here? I arrived in Yecheng three days ago," Yuan Shang said with a smile, "In the future, you should be more considerate of your mother. If other people knew about it, they would think that you and your mother were
What's the barrier?"
Bai Xiaowen glanced at Yuan Shang. This boy was indeed as the novel said. He was good-looking, and his appearance was better than that of Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi. He also had a certain amount of courage. No wonder Yuan Shao was the most happy. Even when the army went out to fight, he still
He took it with him.
To Yuan Shang's surprise, Mrs. Liu spoke first: "Shang'er, your second brother is sick and yet he rushed to me to say hello. I know this filial piety. Please stop saying a few words."
Yuan Shang could only bow his head and respond.
Bai Xiaowen secretly complained, if Yuan Xi was not afraid that your grandson would misunderstand, why would he not come over in advance?
However, these embarrassing words are not suitable to be mentioned in front of Mrs. Liu. Otherwise, given Mrs. Liu's consistent preference for Yuan Shang, if the two of them compete, the only one who will suffer is Bai Xiaowen. Inherent concepts are not about image points or superiority.
What Yichi's charm value can change.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "What the third brother said is true. It's just that the affairs in Youzhou are important and Wuhuan and Xiangping are unstable. Brother Yu can only focus on official matters and only rush over after handling the official affairs, so it's too late. The third brother has been
Being at the knees of my father, I am carefree, and Brother Yu dare not compare with you."
