Chapter 714 Children’s Fables 1
"I haven't been in Xue's house for a long time, but I see that my wife's appearance remains the same, and the two daughters are extremely filial, so it seems to be good." Bi Yuntao replied cautiously.
"Two daughters?" Mr. Huang asked in shock: "I remember that when Xue Hongyuan passed away, the Xue family only had one daughter. How could it be... Could it be that Miss Xu was pregnant at that time?"
"Uh... Mr. Huang, you may have got the wrong idea." Bi Yuntao said with some embarrassment: "The other daughter is an orphan. Mrs. Xue is a kind-hearted woman. Seeing that she was pitiful, she adopted her by her side."
"So that's it." Huang Lao suddenly realized, and the nervous look on his face softened, "Miss Xu has been kind-hearted since she was a child. When you say that, it makes sense."
The subtle expressions on Mr. Huang's face were all seen by Bi Yuntao. It seems that the death of this father-in-law whom he has never met may have something to do with Mr. Huang. At least, Mr. Huang is also an insider.
Of course, Bi Yuntao didn't care at all about his father-in-law's death. He might even go to pay homage to his father-in-law's grave. He will definitely fulfill his father-in-law's last wish and take good care of the beautiful widow and her daughter. It is guaranteed to make them ecstasy every day from now on.
"Is the woman who was with you on the Su Causeway yesterday the eldest lady of the Xue family?" Huang Lao said.
Bi Yuntao nodded, and Huang Laoyi sighed: "I saw that she was very similar to Miss Xu when she was young, so I didn't dare to ask rashly. I never thought that she was actually an old friend."
Bi Yuntao didn't want to get involved in this trivial matter with him, so he said: "Mr. Huang, you invited me here, but are you going to talk about the White Lotus Dharma Assembly?"
Huang Lao hummed: "What is the White Lotus Dharma Assembly? This is the White Lotus cult."
Bi Yuntao thought to himself, as expected, I knew it was those bastards from the White Lotus Sect who would change the soup without changing the medicine.
Huang Laodao: "Brother Bi, do you know about the White Lotus Sect?"
Bi Yuntao smiled and said: "How do you not know? I was kidnapped by them in the past."
"Oh?" Huang Laoqi said: "Brother Bi, you actually have such an opportunity? I am really surprised."
Bi Yuntao mistook Li Gui for Li Kui and told the story of how he and Mrs. Xue were captured together. Chen Wenjing's help and Meng Ruoxi's rescue were naturally not something Bi Yuntao would tell anyone about. They were interesting stories between himself and his wife, so how could he tell others about them.
Huang Laonai is a man who has become a spirit. After thinking for a while, he stroked his beard and said: "There is something weird in this matter. As far as I know, the White Lotus Sect takes people's money and will never let them go without gold and silver. You and Mrs. Xue can't escape." It’s too easy.”
"It was Tao Pengju, the son of Mr. Tao Fan who was made in Suzhou, who borrowed a battalion of troops from Mr. Su, the commander of the Jiangsu capital, and we were able to escape."
Huang Lao smiled mysteriously and said meaningfully: "This is a bit strange. The White Lotus Sect's attempt on Miss Xue is probably not just a simple robbery of money."
There is something in Huang Lao's words, and he seems to know the twists and secrets in it. After a slight pause, he stopped talking and said, "The White Lotus Sect is causing the most trouble in Jiangsu and Shandong. I'm afraid the officials in these two provinces are closely related to each other."
Bi Yuntao thought to himself, do you still need to talk about this? I'm not blind! In Jiangsu Province, except for the old fox Xu Bo, Su Jie, Tao Fan, his son, and others are probably all in the same group as the White Lotus Sect.
Huang Lao continued: "Xu Bo, the governor of Jiangsu, is a good friend of my classmate. I know his difficulties. It is really difficult to have the first constitution of a province but not be able to mobilize the commander-in-chief."
Huang Lao has been an official for many years, so he has a thorough understanding of the colorful ways in the officialdom. In addition, he has been excluded all the time, and those fools understand it better than others.
He smiled at Bi Yuntao and said, "Brother Bi, if you have any difficulties in the future, go and find Xu Bo. Mr. Wen Yu asked him to help you, so he will naturally help you."
Bi Yuntao thought to himself, do you still need your face? Now that I have accepted Xu Bo's son as my younger brother, the old fox is respectful to me.
Seeing the slight disdain on Bi Yuntao's face, Huang Lao slapped his forehead suddenly and said angrily: "Oh, look at me, I have forgotten the identity of little brother Bi. Am I not just showing off with a big sword in front of Guan Gong, but I am just playing tricks on others!"
"Haha, Mr. Huang, why should you belittle yourself?" Bi Yuntao said with a smile: "With your words, Mr. Huang, I feel relieved. I might as well use Mr. Huang's name to bother Mr. Xu Bo in the future."
After all, Mr. Huang meant well, and Bi Yuntao accepted it readily. He happens to have the name of Mr. Huang, so if there is an accident in the future, he is not afraid of exposing his identity.
Mr. Huang's eyes fell on the believers who worshiped the White Lotus Empress in the distance, and sighed: "The rebellion caused by the White Lotus in the past was just a hunger riot. It is indeed excusable. It is a pity that it was taken advantage of by people with intentions, but it went further and further. , burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil, even the people hate them. Exterminating this White Lotus is a top priority."
After Bi Yuntao heard this, he said strangely: "Old Huang, since the White Lotus Sect has a bad reputation, why do it still have such followers worshiping it?"
Mr. Huang explained: "This is their ability to confuse people. The believers you see worshiping the White Lotus Empress don't know that the White Lotus Dharma Assembly is the White Lotus Sect. In addition, they confuse the public with their evil methods. It is quite tempting to these people, that’s why you see it now.”
Bi Yuntao glanced at the distance and saw several loyal believers coming from the door of a distant alley, kowtowing and kneeling. He worshiped the White Lotus Empress to the core. He couldn't help but shake his head. Said: "The most terrifying thing in this world is to confuse people's hearts. Mr. Huang, what is this evil method you are talking about?"
Huang Laodao: "I can't explain this evil law clearly. I just heard from people that a month ago, people from the White Lotus Dharma Association said that the White Lotus Empress' Dharma is boundless and will grow an inch from the ground every day, preaching it to everyone. "
"So, there were believers staying in front of the Buddha statue day and night. Strangely enough, no one touched the Buddha statue, and no one noticed anything unusual. The Buddha statue was originally buried in the ground, but it grew an inch every day. Brother, you We also know that the Bodhisattvas in the famous mountain temples cannot move. But this is different for the White Lotus Empress. She actually bursts out of the ground and grows an inch every day. Isn’t this a demon? This news spreads from ten to ten, and from ten to a hundred, But the people nearby knew about it. After seeing it with their own eyes, more and more worshipers started to worship. Once this person's heart is bewitched, it will be difficult to take it back. I'm afraid it won't be long before he becomes a believer of the White Lotus Sect. .”
So that’s what happened, Bi Yuntao sneered in his heart, I asked why I feel familiar, isn’t this just a nature class in elementary school! If you play this trick in front of your grandpa, you are in bad luck.
