Chapter 320 How Dare You Be Distracted
Chapter 320 How dare you be distracted
The way Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan this time was different from the last time in Wanping...with tentativeness and uncertainty.
His overly hot eyes seemed to tell Bai Qingyan that he was bound to win, no matter whether Bai Qingyan liked him or not.
Now that the window paper had been pierced, Bai Qingyan simply took advantage of it to speak.
"Mr. Xiao, last time I was on the boat, I understood what you said." She put Xiao Rongyan's jade cicada on the stone table, and said calmly, "But you and I are not suitable for talking about romance."
"Behind me are my mother, aunt, and younger sisters who need to be protected. Behind you is Dayan who is waiting to be rebuilt. I want to protect the glory of the Bai family. You want to revive the glory of Dayan when Empress Ji was alive... and even want to win the world. .”
The smile in Xiao Rongyan's eyes gradually restrained, and he stared deeply at the woman with exquisite facial features and cold and indifferent under the bright moonlight.
"I am struggling in the state of Jin, so why is it that Yan is faltering among other countries?" Bai Qing said in a very soft voice, "The road ahead is difficult, we are all walking on thin ice, so how dare we be distracted? How can we tolerate the pain of love?" Heavy?"
Xiao Rongyan's eyes fell on Yuchan, and he moved two steps forward. He picked up Yuchan with his knuckle fingers, looked up at Bai Qing who was only one step away from him, and said, "So, you don't dare to be tempted?"
Bai Qingyan looked at the extremely deep eye sockets under Xiao Rongyan's high browbones, tightened her hands slightly, and said frankly: "The future of the Bai family is uncertain, and it is in danger, so I dare not be tempted."
Xiao Rongyan grabbed Yuchan, and this step almost reached her. Bai Qingyan wanted to retreat but Xiao Rongyan grabbed her wrist.
He pulled the person in front of him, stared deeply at Bai Qingyan, lowered his voice and asked, "Bai Qingyan, as long as you don't hate me, I will have a chance. I said... We will have a long time to come!"
Bai Qingyan's extremely long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Xiao Rongyan stuffed the jade cicada into his palm again.
She wanted to refuse, but Xiao Rongyan tightly held her hand: "It's okay to treat it as a blessing, and stay by my side to keep you safe. My mother's life... Few people can understand it, and you are her confidant."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Rongyan smiled very shallowly at Bai Qingyan: "Have a good rest, if there is anything that can be of use to Xiao, just ask."
Watching Xiao Rongyan leave this simple and elegant courtyard, Bai Qingyan looked down at the jade cicada in his hand that was shining coldly under the moonlight.
How could Xiao Rongyan understand that her heart has long since lost her little daughter's affection.
In her heart is the tragic situation of the Bai family in the previous life, the ending of her flesh and blood relatives in the previous life, and even the members of the Bai family who are covered in blood as soon as they close their eyes.
Her greatest wish in this life is to protect the Bai family well, inherit her grandfather's behest, and never leave any room for the affairs of Fengyue.
Guanshi Liu, who had been staying at the gate of the courtyard, saw Xiao Rongyan leave, and immediately came in: "Miss..."
Bai Qingyan put Yuchan into his purse, and said to Guanshi Liu, "I'll bring the little Sihui to the clan tomorrow morning, please trouble Uncle Liu to find a way to involve more members of the clan into the matter of Tianxianglou!"
She turned her head to look at Liu Guanshi: "Try to find a way to tell the magistrate before tomorrow morning that I went back to Shuoyang but never went back to the Bai family's ancestral house."
Since everyone in the world knows that Bai Qingyan, the princess of Zhenguo, is already the Prince's man, so she will borrow the Prince's prestige. Those local officials know that she, the Prince's confidant, has suddenly returned to Shuoyang, wouldn't they rush to curry favor? ?
She is not a grandfather, no matter how angry she is with the members of the Bai family, she will not let others see the joke.

The next morning.
Before dawn, two sedan chairs had already parked at the entrance of the VIP Inn. The eunuch in casual clothes had just gotten off the soft sedan chair when he saw the county magistrate sitting at the breakfast booth opposite the VIP Inn eating breakfast with his subordinates.
Seeing that it was the eunuch, the county magistrate quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth with his hand, trotted to the eunuch, and bowed to the ground: "My lord!"
The eunuch looked at the county magistrate with a half-smile and said, "I didn't expect the county magistrate Zhou to be so well informed that he also knew that the princess is back..."
"It's also the news that I got up early this morning. No... I rushed here without eating breakfast. The official thought that the princess hadn't woken up yet, so he used something to cushion it first. Would you like to come together?" The county magistrate turned a deaf ear to the eunuch's irony.
The county magistrate thought, they all came here to please the prince by pleasing the princess, what kind of airs are they using?
The eunuch waved his hand with a half-smile: "No way! Magistrate Zhou can use it himself!"
With that said, the prefect turned his head and signaled the people around him to enter the inn to send Bai Qingyan a message to see him.
Unexpectedly, Bai Qingyan led Bai Jinzhi out of the main entrance of the inn before the prefect went in, followed by a team of guards.
The prefect saw Guanshi Liu who was following Bai Qingyan at a glance. Half a month ago, the prefect of the Bai family's longevity banquet had seen Guanshi Liu, and the son of the head of the Bai family said that it was Guanshi Liu, but this Guanshi came in a hurry It was a haste to go, the prefect just met and never spoke.
The eunuch stepped forward, glanced at Bai Jinzhi, who had a red whip pinned to his waist, immediately knew the identities of the two, and saluted in Bai Qingyan's direction: "Your Majesty, please refer to the Princess, the County Lord."
County magistrate Zhou also hurried forward, with a flattering and smooth smile, bowed down and bowed: "Your official sees the county lord, the county lord."
Bai Qingyan didn't put on airs at all: "My lords, you are being polite."
Bai Jinzhi stood behind Bai Qingyan, raised his eyebrows without saying a word, and looked arrogant and arrogant.
"Why did the princess and the county master return to Shuoyang early? The news I received was the first day of May!" the prefect asked with a smile.
"Yeah, why didn't the princess and the county master inform you when they came back? Last time at the longevity banquet of the Bai family clan, the subordinate officials discussed with the head of the Bai family... When the princess returns to Shuoyang, arrange for the princess to take the wind and wash away the dust. matter!" County magistrate Zhou, not to be outdone, hastened to express that he had a closer relationship with the Bai family.
Bai Jinzhi sneered: "I expect that old man to clean up my elder sister...don't try to piss my elder sister off!"
"Xiao Si!" Bai Qingyan scolded Bai Jinzhi in a low voice, glanced at the magistrate Zhou, sighed, and said with an indescribable look, "Xiao Si and I are just dealing with some things in the Hui people. If we leave at noon, we will The two adults have never been alarmed."
old man? County Magistrate Zhou's eyes twitched, and his heart skipped a beat.
Hearing the tone of Gaoyi County Lord mentioning the patriarch, and then listening to Zhenguo County Lord saying that the Hui tribe handles things...
Magistrate Zhou thinks something is wrong?
"Is there anything a subordinate official can do for you?" The eunuch calmed down and asked Bai Qingyan without any haste.
"You can't expose your family ugliness, so I won't bother you two adults..." Bai Qingyan smiled reluctantly, "If there is a real trouble that disturbs the two adults, Bai Qingyan will tell the two adults at that time."
It's the beginning of the month! Yes... the bald author came to ask for a monthly ticket again!
