Several people looked at Huo Bai with unkind eyes. It was obvious that they were not convinced at all by Huo Bai, the second-in-command of the Prime Minister's Group.
That was all before. With the Prime Minister here, he could suppress them. They were still low-key to Huo Bai.
But now that the Prime Minister is away, Huo Bai is leading them to retreat steadily. No wonder they are complaining.
Huo Bai thought hard and even stood up and walked around in circles. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he seemed to have thought of something.
He raised his head and looked at Guo Mingwen, his eyes expected and said: "Young Master Guo, I want to ask you about a person. There is a girl named Lan Fenghuang in the Prime Minister's residence."
Guo Mingwen was stunned for a moment, and said with some vigilance: "Master Huo, what do you mean? Miss Lan is living well in the house, so don't try to trick him."
"I'm warning you, you are not allowed to have any ideas about him. There is a gap in seniority between the two of you."
Huo Bai was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said: "What are you talking about, Mr. Guo? Miss Lan is not an ordinary woman. How dare I set her sights on her? I just want to ask you, is she still here?" At home."
Guo Mingwen looked a little unnatural and said: "That's natural. Miss Lan has been living in the house for nearly a month."
"If father doesn't come back yet, I heard she will leave."
Huo Bai quickly raised his hand and said: "Young Master Guo, you have to stop her quickly. At this time, we need her and we can't let her go."
Hearing this, Guo Mingwen suddenly felt a little unbelievable: "Master Huo, don't tell me that if you want to deal with Li Baiyi and Emperor Huai'an, you need to use Miss Lan."
Everyone else also looked at Huo Bai. They all felt that this old guy was a bit old and unreliable. There was nothing they could do about it. Huo Bai's thinking was too fast. They couldn't figure out what other reasons Huo Bai had for mentioning it except this possibility. This so-called blue girl.
Judging from Guo Mingwen's reaction, this girl Lan may be quite beautiful and he likes her very much, so he is so wary.
Guo Mingwen is the eldest son of Prime Minister Guo, so he reacted this way. It is conceivable that this girl Lan definitely looks extraordinary, so it is normal for Huo Bai to have this reaction.
Looking at everyone's reactions, Huo Bai knew that they must have thought of the same thing as Guo Mingwen, and he couldn't help but look full of contempt.
"You guys are really nasty, and it's embarrassing for me to be associated with you."
Guo Mingwen and others knew that they had misunderstood Huo Bai, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Guo Mingwen immediately said: "Master Huo, please tell me what you can do, so that I can have some confidence."
"My father is very kind to Miss Lan. It can even be said that he is a little in awe. If you can't tell the truth, I really don't dare to invite her over."
Huo Bai rolled his eyes and said, "Of course I invited her here to talk about business. Prime Minister Guo also knows about this matter. This is probably a back-up he left before he left."
Guo Mingwen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his father also knew it. At least his father could pass the test.
"Okay, I'll ask my servant to invite Miss Lan here, but it's hard to say whether she will come here, and I don't dare to force her to do anything."
Huo Bai waved his hand, took out a jade pendant from his arms, and said, "Have your servants give this jade pendant to Miss Lan, and she will naturally follow."
With that said, Huo Bai handed the jade pendant in his hand to Guo Mingwen. The other person took a look at the jade pendant and thought it was ordinary. Miss Lan is a well-informed person, how could she come here just because of a piece of jade pendant.
Thinking of this, Guo Mingwen smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Huo, you are a bit of a joke. Who is Miss Lan? How could she be tempted by a jade pendant?"
"When Miss Lan came, my father gave her a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, but she was not tempted at all."
Huo Bai shook his head: "Of course I'm not giving it to her. This is a token. She will definitely come when she sees this token."
Guo Mingwen suddenly realized this, nodded, and quickly asked his servants to take the jade pendant to find Lan Fenghuang. Not long after, a beautiful blue figure walked into the hall and saw everyone.
"Hey, there are so many people here. Where is the owner of the jade pendant?"
Lan Fenghuang looked at everyone present. When he saw Huo Bai, his eyes brightened: "It turns out Mr. Huo is here. I thought the prime minister was back."
Huo Bai smiled and said: "Miss Lan, the Prime Minister has not returned yet. Now I am in charge of the Prime Minister's group for the time being. I will ask Miss Lan to come out this time."
Lan Fenghuang smiled and said: "It's easy to say, but I need to be paid for my work. The Prime Minister also agrees with this. I wonder if you are willing to pay a huge reward?"
Tang En couldn't help but said: "How dare a little girl ask for remuneration? For us people, asking you to do things is already giving you a huge favor for a little girl."
Lan Fenghuang sneered and said: "If you are not willing to give it, that is your freedom, but don't use this to kidnap me. The Prime Minister has no ability to restrain me, let alone you."
Song Guang on the side suddenly became angry: "What a woman, she is so ignorant of praise. Come here, tie her up and let me teach her some rules."
Guo Mingwenhe on the side wanted to stop him, but Huo Bai stopped him with his eyes, telling him not to act rashly.
Guo Mingwen didn't know what Huo Bai wanted to do, so he had to remain calm.
Lan Fenghuang looked at Tang En and Song Guang and said coldly: "Oh, you want to teach me a lesson? Then I want to see what you are capable of."
As soon as they finished speaking, Tang En and Song Guang suddenly felt something cold and strange on their necks.
Tang En was startled and didn't know what it was.
"What happened? Why did I feel weird just now? Something seemed to have run into my neck."
Tang En said to everyone tremblingly.
Song Guang also nodded and said: "I felt the same way just now. I thought it was my illusion."
Huo Bai on the side sneered and said, "That's not your illusion, you've been poisoned."
Upon hearing this, Song Guang and Tang En were immediately startled: "Poisoning, how is this possible? We are here, who poisoned us."
The two of them turned their attention to Lan Fenghuang and said in unison: "Is it you, a little girl?"
Lan Fenghuang nodded and said to the two of them: "That's right, it's me. Do you have any objections? Keep it to yourself if you have any."
Song Guang and Tang En immediately felt like they had eaten flies. The most important thing was that they felt like they were going to die immediately.
"How is this possible? We are important members of the imperial court. If you kill us, you will pay with your life."
