As soon as these words came out, there were still many loveless people in the world, so Cui Yingying turned around and walked away.
Bai Yutian didn't deceive himself, nor did he deceive Cui Yingying. He didn't realize that he was wrong, and followed him lonely and silently, like a shadow, as if he was far away.
The two of them walked for a long distance outside the city. It was five o'clock in the morning and the sky was bright. Cui Yingying stopped in front of an inn and whispered: "You can enter the city!"
Bai Yutian hugged her and said in Cui Yingying's ear, "Aren't you going to go into the city with me?"
Cui Yingying pushed Bai Yutian away and replied in a low voice: "You have your things to do, and I have mine to do. We can't be together anymore. Why don't we just say goodbye and forget about each other?" care."
Who would Bai Yutian be willing to do? He picked up Cui Yingying's little hand, rubbed it on his face, and said with a forced smile: "If one day I win and you lose, please don't forget that you are my wife, and you must do it without hesitation." Stay with me all my life and never leave you."
Cui Yingying took her hand back, took off the black cloth on her face, and said with a slight smile: "If there is any certainty about worldly affairs, let it go and you will feel free. If one day you feel that you should have a wife by your side, just Just marry Miss Zhang Yanyan, there is no need to consider my feelings." He turned around and left with tears in his eyes.
Bai Yutian watched Cui Yingying leave. The moment Cui Yingying stepped into the door of the inn, he said loudly: "Cui Yingying, don't forget, it was you who asked me to marry you. Now you want me to abandon you and ignore you. This is simply wishful thinking. Just wait. Come on, let's see how I can pull the Martial Saint off the altar and free you two, mother and daughter."
Cui Yingying was slightly startled, stopped for a moment, did not turn around, and trotted away, her tears falling silently.
Bai Yutian didn't see or hear anything. He turned around and left with confidence, heading towards the city gate not far away. After walking for a while, we arrived at the city gate, followed by the endless flow of people rushing into the city, and headed straight for the "Bafang Inn".
Stay overnight before it's too late, watch the sky early when the rooster crows. Since Bai Yutian came out of the mountain, he has walked from place to place. Sutou is lighter than anything else, and he values more than anything else. Back at Bafang Inn, I had already missed breakfast time, but it didn’t matter, as long as I had money on hand, I could eat whatever I wanted when I called.
When I walked into the inn, I saw many faces that were extremely unfriendly, especially the owner. When he saw Bai Yutian, he looked like he was seeing the god of plague. His facial features were so uncoordinated that he barely asked someone to kick him out of the inn.
Bai Yutian was extremely puzzled and asked: "Staff, what's going on with you? Did I come to your house by mistake to stay?"
Shi Xingyun ran from the backyard and said with two traces of tears: "Brother Bai, why are you back?"
Bai Yutian asked confused: "What happened?"
Shi Xingyun said: "The official said that we just arrived yesterday, and the palace was stolen last night, and we were asked to hand over the stolen things. We have never done this, how can we hand it over, and we didn't say a word or two, Longwei Escort Agency The bodyguards accompanied the leader of the Han village and they were taken away by the officials."
Bai Yutian asked: "Do you know where those official servants came from?"
The store owner said from the side: "I know the leader, Mr. Xue, from Kaifeng Mansion."
Bai Yutian was very happy after hearing this. He ordered breakfast and took Shi Xingyun into the bedroom. He took off the small cloth bag from his waist and put it on the table. When I opened it, I saw a piece of jade with a radius of four inches and five dragons on New York. I took it in my hand out of curiosity and looked at it. I saw four seal characters engraved on the bottom. I didn't recognize it, so I quickly found Master Mingzhi and the ancients. Elder Huai asked what happened.
Master Mingzhi picked up the stone and looked at it. He saw the four seal characters "Accepting Heaven's Order" written on the bottom of the stone. He was surprised: "Boy, this seems to be the emperor's jade seal. Where did you get it?"
The clouds and fog in Bai Yutian's mind immediately cleared, and he said with a smile: "I snatched it from the man in black last night."
Elder Guhuai asked: "Is this what the palace lost last night?"
Bai Yutian said: "In ancient times, when those officials came to arrest people, didn't they say something was missing from the palace?"
Master Mingzhi said: "The Jade Seal of Chuan Guo, also known as the Seal of Chuan Guo, is the seal of the emperor. It is four inches in diameter and has five dragons on it. On the front, there are eight seal characters engraved on it, 'Ordered by Heaven, Longevity and Longevity', as a sign of 'Imperial Power'" It is said to be a token of heaven-given, orthodox and legitimate. It is said that it was carved by Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, on the order of the first emperor. One said it was made of Lantian jade, and another said it was carved with He's jade. It is the certificate of the orthodox emperors of China. After the Qin Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties They all regard getting this seal as a talisman, treating it like a rare treasure and an important weapon of the country. If you get it, it symbolizes "you have been ordered by heaven", but if you lose it, it means "the energy has been exhausted". Anyone who ascends to a high position without this seal will He was ridiculed as the "white emperor", showing lack of confidence and being despised by the world. In the leap month of the 43rd year of Qingtai in the Later Tang Dynasty, the late Emperor Li Congke of the Later Tang Dynasty and his family and the Empress Dowager Cao set themselves on fire in Xuanwu Tower, and the imperial seal disappeared. It was later called In order to show the legitimacy of inheriting the throne, the emperors would carve 'order treasures' on themselves as a form of comfort."
After listening to Master Mingzhi's words, Bai Yutian knew the importance of the jade seal to the emperor. He immediately became cautious and said softly: "Mr. Li, the theft of this jade seal is of great importance. We must not tell outsiders about it?"
Master Mingzhi said: "Not only can't you mention it casually, but you can't take it to kill their lives at will. Either you hand it over to the emperor directly, or you can use it to find out the people who secretly framed the Longwei Escort Bureau. Choose one of the two."
Bai Yutian said: "Then choose the latter. If you don't uncover the person behind the scenes, you won't be able to sleep well in the capital." He got up, took all his belongings, left the bedroom, went to the front hall of the inn, and handed the shopkeeper ten taels of silver. Xiangqiu asked: "Shopkeeper, could you please introduce me to that Xue Captou?"
The shopkeeper looked at the ten taels of silver and said in a low voice: "Sir, I have only had a few drinks with that Xue Captou, so we are not very familiar with him. We can set up a connection. As for whether I can help you, it depends. You’ve lost your own popularity.”
Bai Yutian clasped his fists and bowed, "Thank you very much, storekeeper, for your help. I will never forget it."
Seeing that Bai Yutian was respectful in words and deeds, generous in dealings, and a good person to work with, the store owner walked out from behind the counter, told the store clerk, and then left the inn with Bai Yutian, called a donkey cart, and drove to the store. Go to Kaifeng Mansion to find him.
Kaifeng Mansion said it was not far away, just to the north of Zhouqiao, and we arrived quickly by donkey cart.
Bai Yutian helped the store owner get out of the car, paid the toll, and followed the store owner to the gate of Kaifeng Mansion.
The shopkeeper went up and said to the clerk at the gate: "Please let me know. Qian Desheng has something to do and wants to see Xue Yunfei to arrest him."
When the official heard this, he saw that the person Qian Desheng wanted to meet was his boss. He did not dare to neglect, so he said hello and sent someone to inform him.
After a long time, a boss came out of the house with great pride, bowed his hands to Qian Desheng and said politely: "Boss Qian, what kind of wind did you bring today to make you come here?"
Qian Desheng bowed and said politely: "Xue Baotou, it must be Duan Southeast Wind, he is not the one who dares to disturb you!"
Xue Captou walked away, and Qian Desheng followed Bai Yutian with a bow.
Qian Desheng said in a good voice: "Xue Captou, thank you for your noble hand and not embarrassing me and Qian for today's matter. I am very grateful." After saying that, he bowed.
Xue Captou smiled and said: "You and I are both friends, and there are friends who make things difficult for friends. Do you think so?"
Qian Desheng thanked him repeatedly: "That's right, that's right."
Xue Captou said: "Boss Qian, why are you talking about today? You might as well explain it more clearly and happily. I still have business to do."
Qian Desheng said with a smile: "Those southerners you took away from my Bafang Inn this morning are friends of Mr. Bai."
Xue Baotou glanced at Bai Yutian coldly and said softly: "Really?"
Bai Yutian walked forward slowly, bowed and said, "My descendant, Bai Yutian, has met Xue Baotou and wishes to express my regards to you."
Xue Baotou saw that Bai Yutian was respectful and polite, so he reluctantly said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. There is no need to be polite."
Bai Yutian straightened his waist slightly and said warmly: "Sir, what crime did those friends of mine commit? How are they doing now? Can I rescue one or two?"
Xue Captou said: "Don't you know what crime you committed? The palace was stolen last night, and someone reported it. It must be them. If you don't return what you stole today, you will be punished tomorrow, and even the gods can't save you."
Bai Yutian bowed and said, "Sir, there were thieves in the palace and something was lost. I wonder if I can tell you directly."
Qian Desheng interjected: "Yes, Capt. Give it a try."
Xue Baotou took a good look at Qian Desheng and Bai Yutian. Seeing that their eyes were clean, he whispered: "The stolen things are too valuable. If someone with ulterior motives knows about it and spreads it from one to ten, then it will be passed on to hundreds." But I’m going to lose my head. Do you still want to listen?”
Qian Desheng said: "Xue Captou, Mr. Qian has no other abilities. It is not difficult not to say what he shouldn't say. As for Mr. Bai, he came to save his friends. He must have listened to If you have never heard of it, you will never say a word to outsiders."
Bai Yutian bowed and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Xue. There are dozens of my friends and brothers in the cell. If I dare to talk nonsense, I will escort them to the execution ground with my own hands, so why bother to come and try to rescue them."
Xue Captou glanced at the two of them and looked at the sun in the sky. Seeing that the sun was high in the sky, he covered his forehead with his hands.
Qian Desheng understood and said to Bai Yutian: "Mr. Bai, it's dinner time, why don't you let Xue Captou reward you and let's chat while we drink."
Bai Yutian was extremely sensible, and he bowed and begged: "Sir, I dare to invite you to show your face and have lunch."
Qian Desheng said politely: "Xue Baotou, Mr. Bai is sincere, why not give him a face and fulfill his good intentions."
Xue Baotou saw that the kindness was difficult to accept, so he reluctantly said: "Come on, you can't believe the words of the person who reported the secret. If you have any grievances, please speak slowly."
Qian Desheng stretched out his hand and said cheerfully: "Xue Baotou please!" Leading the way, Bai Yutian walked behind Xue Baotou, tremblingly.
Bianliang City is prosperous, with big restaurants everywhere. After walking a few steps, he found a restaurant. Qian Desheng asked himself whether he could bear the identity of Xue Captou, so he led the two of them in, found a private room upstairs, and applauded After the food and wine were served, the tea was poured and handed to Xue Baotou.
Xue Captou took two sips to moisten his throat and said, "The thief sneaked into the palace last night. He didn't take anything, but he stole the emperor's jade seal. His Majesty was furious and ordered the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to solve the case within ten days. The prefect was very worried. .”
Bai Yutian said: "Sir, if I can help you solve this case, can you ensure that my friends are acquitted?"
Xue Captou said: "If you can help me solve this case, I can help you deal with it. As for whether your friends can be acquitted or not, it is not up to me."
Qian Desheng interjected: "Xue Captou, since they are not guilty, why can't they be acquitted?"
Xue Captou said: "It was just stolen last night, and before the edict was passed to Jingzhao Yin Mansion, someone came to report the crime, saying that it was someone from your inn. Just judging from your reaction at the time, this matter should be There are other strange things that are beyond our control."
