Jiang Qing

After hearing these words, Bai Bingchen showed a very shallow smile instead, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Just now he was worried that if Zhang Huailiu recognized that he was from the Bai family, would he ask Mei Shao to make a deal with him in front of Mei Shao.But now, seeing Zhang Huailiu talking to himself completely like an elder, Bai Bingchen felt relieved instead.

These seemingly harsh words just mean that he doesn't pursue what happened back then, and of course he won't sway Mei Shao's judgment anymore.

Zhang Huailiu saw that he was a wink, so he realized what he meant so quickly, so he couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

The child in front of him seemed to be only as old as Mei Shao, but he was so mature and prudent, and he did not know how much he had suffered behind his back to become what he is now.

Faintly, Zhang Huailiu felt a little distressed, but he just snorted coldly, patted him on the shoulder, and said something as light as a feather, "Be careful when you make a picture."

The sudden sentence made Bai Bingchen stunned, his almond eyes widened slightly, and he didn't even notice that Zhang Huailiu was being sent away by Mei Shao.

Until Mei Shao came back, he was still in a daze.

"What's the matter?" Mei Shao thought he was a little sad by Zhang Huailiu's heavy words, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "What the teacher just said is indeed serious, he didn't know the inside story back then. I didn't think you were serious , don’t take his words to heart.”

Bai Bingchen didn't listen to Mei Shao's comforting words, he was still thinking about Zhang Huailiu's last words.

Could it be that he heard something from the prefect of Benzhou, but there was no conclusive evidence, so he could only remind himself secretly?

"Really angry?"

Mei Shao's voice fell on his side, slowly gathered, and brought back Bai Bingchen's mind.

When he came to his senses, he found Mei Shao's face enlarged in front of his eyes, with drooping eyebrows and eyes, he looked like he was abandoned.

Because of the close distance, Bai Bingchen could clearly see his drooping eyelashes, the distinct eyelashes trembling slightly, looking at a loss.

The information in his mind slowly came together, and what Mei Shao just said vaguely surfaced, and Bai Bingchen finally realized it, and said helplessly: "I'm not angry. That's your teacher, even our elders, how could I be angry? "

Mei Shao saw Zhang Huailiu's expression just now, even though he had restrained a lot, Bai Bingchen could still see the excitement and respect in it.

Now in this world, Mei Shao has no relatives, and Zhang Huai Liu and him have a teacher-student relationship, so they can be regarded as elders.

Being able to live to get the forgiveness of elder Mei Shao is something Bai Bingchen has never dared to think about. How could he be angry because of a few words?

What's more, Zhang Huailiu didn't say anything wrong at all, how he climbed up to the position of right minister step by step, Bai Bingchen knew in his heart that he was not a kind person at all.

After that, there were no more twists and turns on the road. When Mei Shao and Bai Bingchen arrived in Pingdu smoothly, the summer heat gradually subsided.

Mei Shao and Bai Bingchen went back to their residences to rest for a while, then changed into official uniforms, and went to the palace to report on their duties.

The lotus flowers in the palace were in full bloom, and even on the way to Qinzheng Palace, both of them were covered with lotus fragrance.

Fang Min's memorial entered the capital one step earlier than them, so Zhao Zhen picked up a few things and asked for details, and flattered him a few words, then asked Mei Shao to step back, leaving Bai Bingchen to speak alone.

As soon as Mei Shao left, the originally majestic and unpredictable emperor loosened his shoulders and jokingly said: "Are you still willing to report to me? After Zijin knew what happened to you, he almost fought with me desperately. It's not that you don't know that your elder sister has Protect you more, such a big thing happened, there is nothing to explain?"

The more he said the last few words, the more Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth, looking as if he wanted to break his brain to have a look.

"It's my fault to make His Majesty and the Empress worry."

A soft smile formed in Bai Bingchen's eyes, and he was about to salute, when Zhao Zhen waved his writing hand slightly, stopping his movement.

"Fushun, please sit down with Bai Qing." Zhao Zhen dropped the look of sitting upright in the past, half leaned on the chair, and still held a red pen in his hand.

"Your complexion looks a little better." Zhao Zhen leaned forward slightly, sizing up Bai Bingchen's complexion, feeling indescribable.

In the past, he was thin and pale, and even with a smile, it made people feel like the sun had fallen into the ice and snow, but now he seems to have gained a little popularity.

Bai Bingchen bowed his head to thank Fushun who held up the seat, sat upright, and asked, "Lord Mei has contributed a lot to the suppression of bandits in Weihu Mountain. What official position does His Majesty plan to give him?"

Zhao Zhen thought of Mei Shao who came in with him just now. Although the two entered the palace one after another on purpose, Zhao Zhen still found that the relationship between the two seemed to have eased a lot. He remembered Bai Bingchen's harsh words before leaving, and brought him With a hint of teasing, he asked: "I remember, before Bai Qing went to Cangzhou, he said that he would not let him come back again? What happened in this process that made Bai Qing not only change his mind, but also come to ask for credit for him? "

Bai Bingchen heard the joke in his words, raised his eyebrows slightly, took a sip of the tea in the teacup, smiled at the corner of his mouth, but couldn't reach his eyes, and asked, "Your Majesty, how are the recent government affairs of the court? Is there any difficulty? Did you ask Prince Sheng for advice on unresolved matters? Have you ever read the essence of history books every day?"

His expression is very familiar to Zhao Zhen. Every time he supervised Zhao Zhen's homework in the past, he had such a gentle and approachable appearance, and he spoke softly, making people think that after he had been fooled, the two-finger-wide The ruler will fall on the back of Zhao Zhen's hand.

Faintly, Zhao Zhen felt some numbness in his back, and it seemed as if someone had drawn a blow out of thin air on the back of his hand.

Covering up coughing a few times, Zhao Zhen sat down, stopped teasing him, and turned serious, "What happened in Cangzhou, can the relationship between you ease so quickly?"

"He knew the truth about Cangshan, and also knew that Anxiang Pavilion is not my organization." Bai Bingchen paused, and continued: "Moreover, this visit to Weihu Mountain has verified our original idea. There is gunpowder hidden, and the Anxiang Pavilion really came for the military power of Li Guo."

Restraining his expression, Zhao Zhen couldn't help sitting upright, pondered for a moment and said: "He knows, and it's not a bad thing. At least he won't attack you again. I heard that there were several times in Cangzhou, and you almost died. in his hands.

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen's voice became deep, with a bit of restrained anger.

"It's all over." On the contrary, Bai Bingchen looked indifferent, and Zhao Zhen was so angry that he laughed out loud.

"When the late emperor was here, you were biased towards him in every possible way. If he hadn't been a man, I would have suspected that you had other thoughts about him."

Zhao Zhen held his pen and raised his eyebrows teasingly at him. He thought that Bai Bingchen would not reply to this joke, but he responded solemnly.

"Yes."

Bai Bingchen looked back at the past calmly, his voice was soft, and fell into Zhao Zhen's ears, but the words trembled, "Just as your Majesty thought, although he is not a woman, I do have other thoughts about him. Chen Xiao thought about it." He has been ten years, but he is destined to be unavailable, so I hope His Majesty will accept this dirty and sincere intention of the minister, and don't attack him."

The vermilion pen in his hand slipped, instantly drawing a vermilion line on the memorial.

"You're crazy!" Zhao Zhen moved his lips, opened and closed several times, and finally only uttered these words.

Bai Bingchen didn't respond, but just looked at him, and told Zhao Zhen silently with absolute calmness and firmness that what he said just now was not on his whim, but had already rolled through his heart thousands of times, and he had hidden it for a long time. Speak out at this moment.

"You..." Zhao Zhen closed his eyes, he really didn't know how to digest these words, he slowed down for a while, and his face slowly turned cold, "Just pretend that you haven't said this, and I don't know what to say." did not hear it."

"Your Majesty, do you need me to say it again?" Bai Bingchen replied lightly as if he had never heard his words, but it was like a stone stirring up thousands of waves.

"Bai Yanfang!" Zhao Zhen was trembling with anger, but after being extremely patient, he made a final concession, "If you really insist on him, I can decree to dismiss him and let him..."

Before Zhao Zhen finished speaking, Bai Bingchen took it over in a gentle voice, "Is it okay to let him stay by my side as a foreigner? Afterwards, His Majesty will give me a well-matched marriage, even if I don't get married. , can also block the mouths of Youyou."

Zhao Zhen was silent.

This was indeed his idea. Bai Bingchen was in a high position. This time he left the capital, many people had secretly attacked behind his back. There was no room for any mistakes or omissions on him.Although Li Guo is very lenient towards officials who have sex with prostitutes and take concubines, they still have a lot of considerations for the official wife of a high-ranking official.

If Bai Bingchen fell in love with a woman from an ordinary family, Zhao Zhen would at best recognize a righteous sister, and he would be able to embrace a beautiful woman.

But he just fell in love with a man, the son of a criminal minister in the late emperor's time.

And according to Bai Bingchen's temper, since he opened his mouth, he would not agree to his devious ways.

The dense water vapor obscured Bai Bingchen's expression. He chuckled lightly, with a bit of paranoia and cruelty that he had never seen before, "If I had such an opportunity six years ago, I might really choose to buy a yard and put him Enclosed in it for a lifetime, let him see only the minister day and night."

A soft sigh dissolved the misty tea mist, revealing Bai Bingchen's gentle and firm eyes.

"But it's different now, he is not a kingfisher in a cage for people's entertainment, he wants to revive the Mei family, he wants to clean up the Li country's military and political affairs, and he wants to avenge blood and blood with his own hands, so I will fulfill his long-cherished wish. He will become an important minister of the Li country in the future, and he can lead millions of soldiers to protect the mountains and rivers of the Li country, and this is exactly what His Majesty needs, isn't it?"

Zhao Zhen was not moved at all, and said coldly: "I don't believe him."

"Your Majesty is a trustworthy minister." Bai Bingchen took a deep look at him, "As long as Your Majesty is willing to trust your minister, I will make him an irreplaceable minister of Li Guo in the future."

Zhao Zhen closed his eyes, not wanting to hear any more from him.
