Chapter 988 Don't dare to be unfilial
Bai Jintong smiled, and said humbly: "On this point... Gong Xing still learned from Xiao Rongyan, the number one righteous merchant in the world."
The empress of Xiliang paused her steps, staring at the moonlight shining in through the narrow high window, under the bright white color, the dust was flying, and said in a low voice: "I...have been in touch with you for a long time, and even regard you as a friend , I feel that you hide very deeply, you have many similarities with me, you are not very old... you are calm, and there seems to be a secret behind it, which makes me very curious."
Bai Jintong hurriedly bowed, repeatedly saying that he didn't dare.
The empress of Xiliang let out a low laugh when she heard this.
"Cui Fengnian, Cui Gongxing... I sent people to investigate, and there is indeed such a person, and it is true that he has gone to sea to do business!" The smile on the face of the Empress of Xiliang slowly sank, and she casually put the bamboo slips on the table. On the square table, he turned to look at Bai Jintong with cold eyes: "But Cui Fengnian... is a man!"
The empress of Xiliang lifted up the hem of her shirt, sat down at the square table, and looked at Bai Jintong with an air of disdain for the world: "Gong Xing, it has reached this point today, are you still not telling the truth? Are you planning to... let me stay here?" Will you be identified in prison?"
The corners of Bai Jintong's lips twitched into a smile, and he lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down opposite the Empress of Xiliang. His eyes were clear and there was no timidity or panic, and he said: "Since Your Majesty knows, I will not hide your respect from Your Majesty. Girl...Your Majesty should know that the hardships of a woman's life are all due to her last resort."
"Then, Gong Xing... Who is your name and where does you live, can you tell me clearly?" The empress of Xiliang fixedly looked at Bai Jintong who dared to look at her.
"Your Majesty, your surname is Cui...and your name is Fengnian. Since your Majesty sent someone to investigate Fengnian, you should know that Fengnian's mother was almost abandoned in her early years. If Fengnian's son had not been born, my father would have helped him. The outer room raised outside...is the main house!" Bai Jintong said slowly, "This...is why Gong Xing Ming Ming daughter's house, but pretended to be a man, and later...of course it was to prevent the family property from being stolen. The family took it, and later... it was for the convenience of going out."
This reason makes sense. If the Empress of Xiliang remembers well, the Jin Dynasty was the most serious about male superiority and inferiority. Women lived completely dependent on men, and there were very few female figures like the Great Zhou Empress.
But the problem is, the Empress of Xiliang called the Cui family members, and that day the Empress of Xiliang specially sent someone to bring Cui Fengnian into the palace, just for the two of them to meet each other, but Cui Fengnian didn't know the Cui family members, and the Cui family members even more Identify her as not Cui Fengnian.
Cui Gongxing... didn't tell the truth!
But the empress of Xiliang didn't say this in front of Bai Jintong. The empress of Xiliang believed Cui Gongxing's words... Then let her go, and then sent people to pay attention to the whereabouts of Cui Gongxing's subordinates, no matter how strong the wall was. It will also be ventilated, and no matter how strong the paper is, it will not be able to contain the fire.
"Respectfully, I...give you a chance. Now that the state of Jin has changed to the Great Zhou Dynasty, how about...how about you becoming a Xiliang native?" The Empress of Xiliang tentatively asked.
"Your Majesty, my mother's grave is still in Dazhou, so I dare not be disrespectful." Bai Jintong declined.
The Empress Xiliang nodded her head: "Okay, it's just that I'm being overwhelmed. Now that you've been detained here for so long, the food store outside is in chaos. It's true that I can't keep you here anymore. I have already sent you Someone went to Cui's house to inform your butler, at this moment...the carriage is already waiting for you outside the prison, go..."
Bai Jintong was not pretentious either, he stood up and bowed to the Empress of Xiliang, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The empress of Xiliang waved her hand, seeing Bai Jintong leaving the prison with the eunuch, looking back at the bamboo slips and books left by Bai Jintong on the black lacquered square table, picked them up and sat under the lamp to read them, and said slowly: "Send someone to watch Keep close to Cui Fengnian, and those powerful shopkeepers beside Cui Fengnian."
"Yes!" The eunuch who followed the Empress of Xiliang responded with a bow.
Bai Jintong clenched his fists tightly on his side, restrained his steps, and walked out of the musty and damp prison. As soon as he stepped out of the main gate of the prison, the cold wind blowing towards him brought a freshness that never existed in the prison. feel.
"Young Master Fengnian!" When Chen Qingsheng saw Bai Jintong coming out, he greeted him with a straight skirt, smiled and saluted the two jailers who sent Bai Jintong out, and handed over two cowhide money bags, "Work hard! Hard work! It's a small thing , Invite the two brothers to drink tea!"
The jailer weighed the heavy money bag in his hand, put it into his arms with a smile, and said to Chen Qingsheng with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen, you are polite! These days, shopkeeper Chen always comes, but our brother is really destined to die. Regarding Mr. Cui's matter, please also invite Master Chen Haihan."
"Where is that! The two brothers are busy first, and I will send our son back first!" Chen Qingsheng only smiled and cupped his hands, then supported Bai Jintong's elbow, and walked down the steps.
Bai Jintong looked down at the steps, and asked as he walked down, "You raised the price of food?"
"Young master get on the carriage first, we'll talk about it when we get back..." Chen Qingsheng held Bai Jintong down the steps with a respectful attitude, hurriedly motioned for the groom to bring the horse stool over, and said in a low voice, "Young master will get on the carriage soon, don't be too surprised! "
When Bai Jintong heard what Chen Qingsheng said, his heart tightened suddenly, he nodded and stepped on the horse stool to get into the carriage...
The exquisite carriage wrapped in elm wood and copper, with hanging lamps at the four corners, the moment the curtain was lifted, Bai Jintong saw a man with a haughty and dignified character sitting on the soft cushion opposite the tea table.
The warm yellow light shone in from outside the curtain that Bai Jintong raised, and fell on the man's dark blue gown, but it just concealed the man's handsome brows. He pressed his index finger to his lips, and made a soft movement towards Bai Jintong.
This introverted and quiet man almost forced Bai Jintong to tears the moment he caught his eye.
Bai Jintong didn't dare to hesitate to enter the carriage, and knelt down opposite Bai Qingqi, her tears were like broken beads, and she tried her best to restrain her crying.
Chen Qingsheng's voice came from outside the carriage. He told the coachman to lead the horse. He wanted to drive the carriage for the young master himself, and the coachman responded.
Bai Qingqi looked at the heroic Bai Jintong, who was dressed in men's clothing and was kneeling opposite her, her eyes were red with a smile, and she raised her hand to touch the top of Bai Jintong's hair: "Jintong... has grown up, I didn't expect the third brother to leave In a few years, Jintong has been able to help elder sister."
"Third brother..." Bai Jintong couldn't help crying as soon as she opened her mouth. She thought that the elder sister would send someone, guessed that the elder sister might send the second sister, and even the elder sister came here to save her from danger, but she never thought But... her third brother came back alive and came to Xiliang to save her!
She thought the third brother was gone! She thought... She would never see Third Brother again!
The explosion is over, good night! By the way, ask for a monthly ticket... little ancestors!
