Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Even so, Su Bai had no choice but to join the game.

When Su Bai stepped onto the stairs, the young man made an urging gesture.

She immediately realized that this young man was definitely not a waiter in the teahouse, but Zhou Beiwang's man.

As soon as he entered the teahouse, the young man closed the door.

There was not a single drinker in the teahouse.

"You are..." Su Bai felt that this young man looked familiar.

The young man bent over and smiled as he replied, "Madam, my name is Xu Tianyi, and I am the communications soldier of Captain Zhou. You can just call me Tianyi."

Su Bai was full of disgust and said, "You are God's will. Am I that close to you?"

Su Bai remembered that Xu Tianyi was one of the two soldiers who went to search the backyard with Zhou Beiwang last night.

Xu Tianyi was quite tall, with his back hunched over like a big shrimp, and he didn't look like a good guy at first glance.

"Is the teahouse closed? Why is there no one here?" Su Bai asked.

Xu Tianyi told Su Bai that Captain Zhou booked the place so that he and the eldest young lady could talk here without being disturbed, and there was no one else here except him.

Su Bai looked up at the stairs leading to the second floor. Would there be guest rooms upstairs?

What if Zhou Beiwang wants to take me to the second floor?

No matter how fast his brain worked, he was unable to come up with a foolproof plan. Zhou Beiwang flashed in from the door like a ghost and quickly closed the door.

He still came to Su Bai with that hateful smile on his face.

"Please sit down, Madam." She still politely asked Su Bai to sit down.

"I..." Zhou Beiwang hesitated for a moment before asking, "It's a bit strange to call you Madam Young Master. Can I call you by your name?"

They haven't even taken the first inch yet, but they're already asking for more.

"Names are for people to call you. My name is Su Bai." Su Bai replied coldly.

I was thinking, do you want to call me Xiao Baibai or Xiao Susu and make me feel disgusted and nauseous?

"What a nice name."

"Just say what you want to say. Don't beat around the bush." ​​At this point, Su Bai was in a situation where he had no choice. Whether he wanted money or sex, he might as well get it over with.

"I know that the young lady has some misunderstandings about me. I invited her here today just to make some things clear." Zhou Beiwang half-lowered his head and kept rubbing his hands, seeming a little nervous.

Su Bai looked up and saw that Xu Tianyi had poured a cup of tea for each of them and then disappeared.

There's a weird misunderstanding between you and me. Since you're not going to speak out directly, I'm going to pretend to be confused and interrupt you.

Su Bai asked what the relationship was between this teahouse and the third master Kong Li, and why there was Kong Li's inscription on the plaque. However, Zhou Beiwang's answer surprised Su Bai.

Not only this teahouse has Kong Li's inscriptions, but many shops in the three counties under the jurisdiction of the Seventh Army have Kong Li's inscriptions.

Su Bai immediately understood that it was not the store owner who asked Kong Li to write the inscription, but he was the one who squeezed money out of the store after writing the inscription!

Warlords and bandits... there is no difference. They have used every possible means to squeeze money out of them.

After talking about plaques and inscriptions, Zhou Beiwang finally got to the point.

He was explaining what happened in Dongyuan.

It was not him who told the secret to Kong Chen, but Bai Ying who said it inadvertently and Kong Li discovered it.

Bai Ying is his most trusted subordinate and brother, and Zhou Beiwang had given him instructions regarding Su Bai's matter.

Yesterday morning, after Kong Chen and Kong Li returned to Longxing City, they did not go directly back to the Kong Mansion, but went to the guard battalion headquarters opposite first.

It happened that Zhou Beiwang went to the South Gate and was not in the camp. When Kong Chen asked about what had happened in the city and the Kong Mansion in the past few days, Bai Ying reported to Kong Chen about Liu Yimiao's appearance on the top of the hill on the day of Fu San. Unexpectedly, Kong Li discovered Su Bai's abnormality from this.

When he asked what Su Bai had done specifically in Dongyuan, Bai Ying didn't react and told him the truth about him and Zi Yan practicing spear skills and the young lady walking back and forth around the cemetery.

"Chief of Staff Kong is very smart. He immediately guessed that something happened to you in Dongyuan." Zhou Beiwang said this and exonerated both him and Bai Ying.

He didn't complain, and Bai Ying didn't mean it.

Bai Ying is indeed his direct descendant. Su Bai recalled the day when Zi Yan assassinated Wang Yutian. It was Bai Ying who stood outside the gate of Kong Mansion and made up a lie for Zhou Beiwang and himself to deceive Kong Dai.

Su Bai looked at Zhou Beiwang with half belief and half doubt.

Maybe... this person is not as bad as I thought?

That depends on what he does next. This is just the beginning. Explaining Dongyuan’s misunderstanding is just a stepping stone for him.

"Just tell me, Captain Zhou, what else do you want to do by inviting me here?"

Zhou Beiwang was stunned for a moment and then replied: "No, I just want to explain this matter clearly, nothing else."

Su Bai really wanted to pour a cup of tea on his face. Was it worth clearing out the teahouse and making the two of them look like ghosts just for a few words?

Su Bai stared at Zhou Beiwang, and Zhou Beiwang also looked at Su Bai, motionless.

I remembered a saying: whoever blinks first loses.

Zhou Beiwang lost.

He lowered his head slightly and said, "What I said before can be made clear in a few words outside the Confucius Mansion."

"Are you still a man?" Su Bai could no longer endure it. Anyway, he had the upper hand over him. It didn't matter if he died early or late. There was nothing to be afraid of. "If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't even know there was such a Jingxuan Teahouse in Longxing City!"

Zhou Beiwang didn't expect Su Bai to suddenly get angry, and he was speechless for a moment.

Su Bai just started and laid everything out.

You must have interrogated Wang Yutian. With his despicable character, he is so eager to reveal all the ugly things that happened to his ancestors.

There is no need to go into detail what was found on the stone floor in the yard last night.

"What do you want to do with all this evidence against me? If you're a man, just tell me straight out. I'll do what I can, but if you can't, just spread the word!" Su Bai slammed the table so hard that his hand hurt and the tea bowl on the table shook.

"Does it hurt?" Zhou Beiwang smiled.

Isn't this a typical scumbag?

It’s just that there was no such word as scumbag in the Republic of China.

"Su, Su Bai, listen to me." Zhou Beiwang's face became serious again.

"I am the eldest lady of the Kong family!" Su Bai made her attitude clear to him, don't try to get close to her, Su Bai's name is not for you to call.

"Okay, Madam." A trace of helplessness appeared on Zhou Beiwang's face. He told Su Bai that in addition to Bai Ying and Xu Tianyi, who were the people he trusted the most, the other soldier who followed him into the backyard of the Confucius Mansion last night was also reliable.

They know what to say and what not to say without even being told.

"Nothing happened in the backyard of the Confucius Mansion last night. I did interrogate Wang Yutian, and I have forgotten what he said." Zhou Beiwang said again.

Su Bai got even angrier. This time he didn't slam the table. He just stood up and pointed at Zhou Beiwang: "Can you fart loudly?"

Zhou Beiwang lowered his head even more, and said in a low voice with a slight stutter: "Actually... I, I admire the eldest young lady very much."

People these days are different from those today. Before a relationship is confirmed, men and women rarely say words like "I like you" or "I love you" directly. They often use words like "admire" or "worship". "Ai adoration" is more direct, while "admiration" is more implicit.

Su Bai remembered what Zi Yan had said to her, that she felt Zhou Beiwang liked her and that he held her in high regard when he looked at her.

Zhou Beiwang added: "Madam, please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions. This is a new society. What's more, you and the Kong family..."

He didn't finish the second half of his sentence, but his meaning was very clear. In the new society, the rules of chastity and chastity should have been abandoned long ago. Besides, you, the eldest lady of the Kong family, were fake in the first place.

Su Bai noticed that Zhou Beiwang's face was blushing.

I have only known him for more than ten days and our interactions have been limited. Could it be that he really fell in love with me at first sight?

Su Bai began to believe it a little.

"You want to..." Su Bai sat down again. He originally wanted to ask him directly whether he wanted to marry him as his wife or be his lover, but he found that he couldn't ask the question after he just opened his mouth.

Zhou Beiwang nodded.

I haven't explained anything clearly, what the hell are you doing?

Then just continue to pretend to be confused, why bother explaining?

Su Bai at least believed one thing, that Zhou Beiwang would not drag him upstairs to do something beastly.

"Okay, then you do something for me first."

Zhou Beiwang immediately raised his head, his eyes actually showing some excitement: "You say!"

"Kill someone for me."
