Chapter 490 Too Cautious
"Yeah!" Bai Qingyan raised her foot to send Dong Tingzhen back, "Grandmother misses Xiao Si, so let Xiao Si go back to the capital city."
Dong Tingzhen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
That night, Dong Tingzhen tossed and turned and couldn't sleep because of Bai Qing's words that the love of blood is the deepest bond in the world. Such a simple truth... she actually forgot.
Dong Tingzhen quietly wiped away her tears with the thin quilt with lotus pattern, only to feel ashamed to go back to see her father, mother and siblings.

It was late at night.
Bai Qingyan finished his silver spear training as usual, and after taking a bath, he leaned on his hidden pouch and read the bamboo slips of ancient books in his hand.
Chuntao wrung Bai Qingyan's hair dry, and went to the small kitchen to bring a bowl of milk that was very easy to digest, walked around the screen, opened the water-green succulent gauze curtain and came in, and put the white-glazed and green-colored fine porcelain bowl on Bai Qing. With Yan at his hand, he persuaded in a low voice: "Miss, take a rest earlier after drinking the milk!"
Bai Qing replied, but did not move.
Chuntao sighed, and had no choice but to raise the wicks of the lamps on the mahogany tables, and put the glass covers on them again, and the room brightened up a lot in an instant.
"Chuntao, go and rest, there is no need to keep watch tonight." Bai Qingyan picked up the milk and took a sip.
Nanny Tong specifically told the people in the small kitchen that the milk was sprinkled with marinated osmanthus without sugar, and it was not sweet, which was very suitable for Bai Qingyan's taste.
"Slave maid, let's accompany the eldest girl!" Chuntao took the dustpan, sat down at the small table, picked up the embroidery shed and said.
Bai Qingyan's eyes fell on the embroidery shed in Chuntao's hands, seeing mandarin ducks embroidered on it, she chuckled, "This is for Chen Qingsheng? Miss your cousin?"
"Girl..." Chuntao blushed a lot, "I'm an embroidered pillow!"
Bai Qingyan didn't expose Chuntao, just smiled and said nothing.
Bai Jintong has been away for half a year, and only sent a letter once, and he never sent a message back, so he doesn't know if it's safe or not.
Chuntao hadn't heard from Chen Qingsheng for so long, so it was natural to be worried.
I only hope that Bai Jintong can return safely with his loyal servant.
Bai Qingyan closed the bamboo slips in his hand, and gazed sideways at the towering ancient trees in the courtyard through the half-opened window lattice. The half-hanging Xiangfei bamboo curtains and thin gauze curtains enclosed the verandah to isolate flying insects. ring.
I don't know where Bai Jinzhi has gone, and whether he can reach the capital in time before the emperor's decree.

On July 20th, at the end of You hour, Bai Jinzhi rode a horse from outside Dadu City and galloped all the way to the Prince's Mansion.
It was midsummer, and after the sun went down, the wind was still hot.
The prince's clothes were open, and he was leaning in the gazebo with ice at the four corners, watching his concubine dancing, when he heard Quan Yu kneeling outside the bamboo curtain saying that Princess Gaoyi had something to ask to see the prince outside the gate of the prince's mansion, the prince hurriedly stood up, Tie up the coat and call Quan Yu in to change him.
Last night, the crown prince just received a letter from Bai Qingyan, in which she said... Liang Wang faction teamed up with the Wang family of Jiuqu Lane, and sent people to pretend to be robbers and rob children for alchemy.
Mr. Fang read the letter at the time, and felt... If what Bai Qing said in the letter was true, King Liang really did such a frenzied thing, this blow would not only prevent King Liang from marrying Liu Ruofu, the only daughter of King Xian Let Liang Wang no longer be able to compete with the prince for the reserve.
Today, Bai Jinzhi suddenly rushed back to Dadu from Shuoyang, the prince guessed that Bai Qing had something very important to tell him, and he didn't dare to delay when Bai Jinzhi came to report to him.
"Send someone to let Elder Fang welcome Princess Gaoyi into the mansion first!" the prince said loudly.
Quan Yu responded, and sent a young eunuch with quick legs and feet to invite Mr. Fang.
Ever since he received Bai Qingyan's letter last night, Mr. Fang has been thinking about Liang Wang's alchemy. When he heard that Bai Jinzhi appeared in front of the prince's mansion, the prince ordered him to meet him, so he guessed that maybe Bai Jinzhi was doing it for this reason. I came back from Shuoyang.
Fang Lao raised the hem of his straight skirt, and walked quickly from the Jiuqu corridor to the main entrance. Before he got close to the main hall, Fang Lao saw Bai Jinzhi standing in front of the wall in the main courtyard. A man with blood on his body.
Holding the Wujin horsewhip in his hand, Bai Jinzhi stood with his hands behind his back. Seeing Mr. Fang coming in a hurry, he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Fang is here!"
Mr. Fang was sweating from running. He walked out of the corridor and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief. He straightened his shirt, conscious that he would not be rude, and then stepped forward to salute Bai Jinzhi: "Princess..."
"Mr. Fang is polite!" Bai Jinzhi cupped his hands towards Mr. Fang, pointing at the man kneeling on the ground and beating him tremblingly with a horsewhip, "This is the fake gangster in Shuoyang, who robbed the child and sent him to the capital city to make alchemy for the king of Liang. One of the gangsters! My elder sister asked me to hurry up and send it to His Royal Highness and Mr. Fang, to see if I can help His Highness and Mr. Fang!"
As he spoke, Bai Jinzhi took out the interrogated confession from his sleeve and handed it to Elder Fang: "It's a soft bone, it didn't take much effort, just a little bit of torture and everything will be recruited!"
Before Bai Jinzhi came, Bai Qingyan confessed... Let Bai Jinzhi get closer to this old man, but don't need to try to please him, Bai Jinzhi is careful in his heart, making sure that the old man trusts him very much, and it's very casual not to put on airs in front of Mr. Fang The appearance of Wuchengfu.
Elder Fang took a look at the sworn confession, his eyes brightened.
"It's so annoying! Mr. Fang, tell me... everything has been charged, and my elder sister even asked me to send people here. If it wasn't because of such a burden on the road, I would have arrived long ago!" Bai Jinzhi said, holding his hands together Behind him, he glared at the gangster with an annoyed look on his face.
Old Fang smiled and took the confession that had been pledged in his hand, and said: "Princess Zhen Guo is cautious, this is also for the sake of safety, so that King Liang will not have the excuse to say that we slandered him! Thank you, Princess Gao Yi!"
With his hands behind his back, Bai Jinzhi disapproved and said, "When it comes to being cautious, I just think Eldest Sister is too cautious! Earlier... Eldest Sister originally wanted to propose to the crown prince's cousin to send the recruits to southern Xinjiang, and let the Bai family army Help train recruits! This will surely train a group of usable sharp soldiers for our country of Jin! Moreover, sending troops to Xiliang by the country of Jin can also play a role in deterring Xiliang from acting rashly, but the elder sister is worried that others will say that she With ulterior motives, I just don’t want to propose to the prince’s cousin! It’s simply too cautious! Who is the eldest sister? Does the prince’s cousin not know? As long as it is beneficial to the country and the people... Even if someone questions the elder sister, the prince’s cousin I will definitely protect Eldest Sister!"
The prince rushed over, and when he heard Bai Jinzhi complaining, he couldn't help laughing: "How dare you say that in front of Zhen Guo Princess?"
Bai Jinzhi turned around when he heard the words, hurriedly bowed to the prince, and said with a smile: "Eldest sister is not here, I'm just complaining to Fang! Prince's cousin, please don't tell elder sister!"
Seeing that the crown prince just smiled and said nothing, he stretched out his hand to take the confession handed over by Mr. Fang, Bai Jinzhi pointed at the robber again, and said angrily: "If you don't bring this person, but just bring the confession, I will be there this morning." !"
