"The sage once said that one should not enter a dangerous country, and one should not live in a disordered country. He also said, "Knowledge and act cautiously, and a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall."

"Before I was in a desperate situation and my life was threatened by that tiger monster, how would I know that with my family's treasured sword, I could really take the life of that evil creature?"

Murong Bai stared at the old steward of Prince Liang's Mansion in front of him, and sneered, "Besides, if you dare to ask me, you have received the great kindness of Master Ziyun, so if you know that Master Ziyun will take over the mission of exorcising demons this time... The matter is a dangerous situation with a narrow escape, so why didn't the prince and the magistrate choose the person to lead the way, and they didn't take the initiative to ask Ying to go and protect Ziyun Ziyun?"

No one dared to say that the content written in the sage's classics was wrong, even though the old housekeeper was not a scholar, and even the most words he had read in his life were probably just the records in the palace's account books.

At this time, Murong Bai spoke out the words in the Confucian classics, coupled with his status as a scholar, it was enough to make him invincible first.

Fa Hai is an outsider, and what he has been in contact with since he was a child is only the set of Buddhist things.

Although Fa Hai had a lot of understanding of the world of mortals, his understanding was just standing on a high ground and looking at things with the eyes of a bystander.

Unlike Murong Bai, who has gone through ten thousand realms and lived various lives. Some Fahai monks don't know the unspoken rules that only belong to the ordinary world. Here in Murong Bai, there will be no secrets. .

Therefore, just such a lengthy speech at this time made the faces of King Liang and the prefect of Hangzhou change immediately.

The original indifference and leisurely enjoyment of watching a good show have all turned into resentment towards the old housekeeper.

After Murong Bai deliberately pointed out the cause and effect of the kindness between the old housekeeper and Master Ziyun, even the old housekeeper, who was still filled with righteous indignation, became speechless, "I... old man..."

Chapter 1290

Chapter 1290

The old butler himself looked like this, not to mention that as the master of Prince Liang's mansion, when the king of Liang looked at the old butler, there was a dangerous look in his eyes.

Among those in high positions, who would be a simple person?

In just a short moment, because of the old butler's sudden speech, many guesses flashed in King Liang's mind.

There is not only the reason why the old butler suddenly spoke out against Murong Bai, but also the fact that her natal family seems to be a certain side concubine of the palace who has a close relationship with the old butler.

Although Murong Bai is just a poor scholar from a dilapidated family, he has a family heirloom sword that can be called a magic weapon in his hand.

Liang Wang thought about it carefully, perhaps the old housekeeper and the people behind him wanted to stand out and win for them such a benefit that would make anyone covetous?

But are scholars so easy to bully?

Not to mention far away, just look at the eyes of the prefect of Hangzhou at this time, the inside is like a sword, it is really sharp, not to mention that there are many censors who have been staring at him.

If someone gives him the name of a young scholar who has made great contributions to the people by relying on his power and oppressing the people, there will definitely be quite a disturbance in the capital.

Seriously, what a trick to kill with a borrowed knife.

But if they plan to do this, don't they just fool themselves as a fool?

It is conceivable that when King Liang, who has secretly grown resentment in his heart, returns to Prince Liang's mansion today, there will definitely be a bloody storm in the mansion.

However, these things will not have much to do with Murong Bai, even at this moment, he is still fanning the flames from the sidelines.

He looked at the old butler who was already a little bit at a loss, and continued with a light smile, "Being a man is a matter of self-knowledge. The old man never chose to go with his benefactor. It seems that he understands this truth very well."

"Besides, every industry in the world has its own division of labor. I am a scholar and have a reputation as a scholar. My duty is to study hard in the cold window and win some rankings in this autumn."

Murong Bai turned his head, looked at Bai Suzhen affectionately, and then continued, "If it wasn't for the mercy of the heavens, I finally reunited with my long-lost wife on New Year's Eve this year. Sage books, risking evil spirits rampant outside the city, took his wife and family, went to Lingyin Temple to offer incense and fulfill their vows, thanking the Buddha for his kindness?"

Murong Bai's exposition, even dismissed, quickly made everyone's doubts aroused just now because of the old housekeeper's words, disappear immediately.

On the contrary, what is more is the emotion and emotion of the deep love for Murong Bai and Bai Suzhen.

Because King Liang and the prefect of Hangzhou took the lead today and wanted to hold a lively commendation meeting, there were quite a few outsiders gathered in Murong Bai's house.

Therefore, Murong Bai knew very well that after he finished speaking, he didn't have to wait until tomorrow, but only this afternoon, when everyone present went back to their homes. By then, most of the city of Hangzhou might be They will spread the "touching" love story between themselves and Bai Suzhen, and then combine it with the deeds of killing the tiger demon on Ye Songpo. I am afraid that in this story, a lot of romance should be added.

In this way, fame and public opinion have been gained, and the tricks of Monk Fahai have completely become useless.

Murong Bai's heart is light, but the words that come out of his mouth are still extremely sharp.

He looked coldly at the old steward of Prince Liang's mansion, who was already sweating profusely, and said to him in a deep voice, "The old man's words today are not questioning Wang, but questioning the prince and the magistrate. Arrangements for major events."

The old housekeeper's previous doubts were a slap in the face, and Murong Bai's remarks this time are of course even more stinging.

After hearing Murong Bai's emotion, the old butler immediately shouted excitedly.

He stopped looking at Murong Bai's place, and only waved his hands to King Liang to explain, "I'm not, I'm not!"

But at this time, the expressionless King Liang just glanced at the old housekeeper, and didn't say a single word.

King Liang's attitude made the old butler, who had followed King Liang for many years and knew very well about King Liang's temper, sink to the bottom of his heart immediately, and couldn't help but regret his impulsiveness once again.

Why did I have to be so impulsive, to say such a thing to the prince?

It was obviously impossible for the old butler to figure out the real answer to this question. After all, people's hearts are the most complicated. Perhaps the reason why the old butler made the choice he made today was nothing more than his change of mood at a certain moment before.

But why he had such a change of mood, it was obviously impossible to explain it with reason.

The old butler was sweating and tangled up here, but Murong Bai had already moved his eyes away from the old butler.

He bowed his hands towards King Liang, with a smile on his face, "My lord."

"Students are just scholars who have no power to restrain chickens. I didn't know before that my family's treasured sword can be so powerful."

Murong Bai's words were full of sincerity, "However, the student will never have the opportunity to personally slay monsters with a sword in this life. Leaving this treasured sword in my house is a bit of a secret trick. It is better to hand it over to the imperial court." , in case there is another evil spirit in the world, the prince can send people to get rid of the evil spirit at the first time, so as to prevent the tragedy of Xiaohetang Village from happening again in the world..."

With the questioning from the old steward, even though Murong Bai offered to dedicate the family-heirloom sword to King Liang at this time, and King Liang was indeed envious of Murong Bai's sword, but if he really If he puts down the knife at this time, it will inevitably lead to a notoriety of oppressiveness.

Not to mention anything else, as long as the prefect of Hangzhou, he will definitely participate in him in the memorial to Beijing.
