you got on my tail

Defrauding people is like an interrogation, and the right medicine needs to be prescribed. Bai Xuehe hoped that Lan Ziqing could get ahead, and naturally he couldn't use the method of putting a knife on his neck, so he personally posted a greeting card and went to see Master Lan.

Bai Xuehe drank a pot of wine, swallowed the anti-alcoholic medicine first, and then came to the county government office with a few books. Lan Ziqing was sitting in the door writing. A few side dishes, fried peanuts, tofu mixed with shallots, one red, one green and one white.

Although tofu is a daily side dish, peanuts are usually served with wine, Bai Xuehe was a little surprised for a moment, Lan Ziqing put down the scroll, took out two white porcelain cups from the cabinet, and even took out a jug.

He invited people to drink, but it was prepared by others, so Bai Xuehe could only sit down in embarrassment.

"The memorial you want, everything here is on it." Lan Ziqing spread it out expressionlessly, "Is the writing appropriate for my lord?"

Bai Xuehe was taken aback for a moment, and quickly thought that it might be Wei Lan, but he still pretended to be surprised and said, "Lord Lan, what does this mean?"

"Master Wei went to my hometown Zhejiang overnight and arrested my mother." Lan Ziqing poured a glass of wine, and Bai Xuehe clearly ordered not to act rashly. He didn't expect Wei Lan to do such a thing, but since Lan Ziqing calmly Sitting here, his mother must be fine.

"I didn't tell him to do this!" Bai Xuehe quickly assured, "Their Jinyiwei, what they do is..."

"I'm curious, Lu Yongning has no relatives and friends, how could he be found to be a subcontractor?" Lan Ziqing drank very refreshingly, "Maybe I asked too much, Master Wei couldn't help but tell the truth, when you were imprisoned in the sky prison, When the emperor met you in private, he said that 'Mei Qing' was dead, and Lu Yongning was a jailer at that time, so he happened to hear it."

Bai Xuehe told Wei Lan's family [-] times in his heart, and began to drink in embarrassment, one cup after another, no matter what, Wei Lan had already made a move, Lan Ziqing had to go no matter what, so there was no need for him to show his righteousness here , so ready to pretend to be drunk at any time.

"Before you came, some people said that you had been favored by the king of Yan, and you were promoted by the deposed prince, but you were just a clerk. Later, something happened to the king of Yan, and you were locked up in prison for a while. To the Minister of Dali Temple." Lan Ziqing was also drinking, and although Bai Xuehe couldn't tell whether someone was drunk, he could recognize the unnatural redness on his cheeks, "I was wondering why you didn't take credit for the case you investigated, Instead, let me, an outsider, report."

Bai Xuehe's throat was burning from drinking, and he felt that he had taken too little anti-alcoholic medicine.

"Because General Xu has a heavy army in his hands, even if the emperor wants to investigate thoroughly, he will first appease him and use someone to act." After speaking, Lan Ziqing was a little angry, and raised his hand to snatch the wine glass from Bai Xuehe's hand, his words seemed a little drunk , "And you betrayed King Yan, so you were promoted by the emperor. This case involves General Xu. If you say it, neither civil nor military people will believe it. Now the evidence is convincing? Only you know whether all the evidence is true or not. General Xu is an important minister at the border. General Liu used to be the same, probably because of the cunning rabbit's death, borrowing someone to kill..."

With a "bang", Bai Xuehe folded his arms and bent over the table, something hit the ground, interrupting Lan Ziqing's blurted nonsense.

It was Bai Xuehe's article that fell to the ground. Lan Ziqing was holding the wine glass, her fingers were tense and her knuckles were sharp, and she put it down after a while.

Bai Xuehe didn't speak, but shook his head again, with a very sincere smile on his expression.

"The emperor asked you to come, and you don't care if there is any grievance."

Lan Ziqing was silent for a while before raising her head to speak.

"Who said that?" Bai Xuehe quickly shook his head, picked up the wine glass and poured water to drink and eat vegetables. This attitude of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water seems to be acquiesced, and it seems that he didn't hear it when he was drunk.

"Now that you are detaining my mother, what else can I do?" Lan Ziqing smiled wryly, her long hair was disheveled, and then raised her eyes, a trace of scarlet flashed in them, "I will write a letter, but this is the first time I have investigated If I don't die, I will definitely ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate the case and return the innocent to the innocent."

After all, he didn't care about Bai Xuehe, who was drunk like mud, and quickly got up and left.

The first time I pleaded for the people, it was very likely that I was carefully arranged by someone. The first time I met the imperial envoy who was investigating the case together, he was a lackey who only listened to the emperor.

Lan Ziqing just felt uncomfortable in his heart, but Bai Xuehe felt uncomfortable in his stomach. He drank too much wine and felt his internal organs were burning like fire. It would be better not to take sober medicine, anyway, sleeping is more comfortable than being awake.

He lay on the table for a long time before he staggered up with the help of the table, his hands were not steady, the wine jug on the table fell to the ground, and the light yellow liquid flowed out from it, smudged on the pages of the book on the ground.

"Lord Bai?" Wei Lan's voice came from outside the door, Bai Xuehe turned his head, picked up the wine glass and smashed it against the wall.

Wei Lan easily dodged, stepped forward and said, "Don't be too angry."

Bai Xuehe smiled and said nothing, but Wei Lan was very embarrassed.

In fact, Wei Lan can't be blamed for talking too much, he is the commander of Jinyiwei, and there is only one master in the whole world who can give orders. If no one gives orders, how can an idiot like Lan Ziqing get a ten thousandth out of his mouth.

They needed a reason to check Xu Yan, and Fu Jiying was more anxious than them.

"Go, let her mother go." So Bai Xuehe lowered his head to pick up the wine glass and jug, Wei Lan hurried over to help, and a blue fruit fell out of the white porcelain jug.

"I also prepared green plum wine." Wei Lan immediately resolved the embarrassment, and joked: "Lord Lan is really a hero."

"It's not green plum, it's wine fruit." Bai Xuehe explained angrily, "Put the wine fruit into the wine, it can ease the smell of the wine and make it less spicy."

He was startled for a moment, then turned his head suddenly and said, "You went to arrest Lan Ziqing's mother? What's his hometown like?"

"That's it." Wei Lan replied, "In a poor mountain village, there is an old lady who raises chickens and farms. There is nothing different. Does this person have any problems?"

"Probably I was wrong." Bai Xuehe shook his hand, "Let's go."

"It's strange, but that family is really poor." Wei Lan whispered to herself, "That mother is still dumb..."

……

It rained continuously at night in the county town, in order not to disturb Lu Yongning, Bai Xuehe still stayed in Xingshan.

Heitan's voice came faintly from the bedside, "Where's the idiot county magistrate?"

Bai Xuehe reacted, "Why do you casually call people nicknames?"

But "dumb" is a good word, Lan Ziqing never came again, Bai Xuehe smiled and sat for a while, ready to pick up a book to read, but found that there was no book.

"Xiao Hei? What are you looking at?" Bai Xuehe poked his head and saw Hei Dan holding the book with a sad face, shaking his head and dozing off. He leaned over to look, and the little guy actually held his book in his hand.

"How do you read my book?" Bai Xuehe felt amused, "Is it because you don't read enough novels? But I can read your book three times."

"I want to see what you're looking at." Heitan turned his head, his round eyes were very serious, "Otherwise you think I'm stupid and don't take me out to play."

"I have something to do, why not go out to play?" Bai Xuehe touched his head, "Don't look, let's go eat."

"Just know how to eat and eat." Heitan turned to teach him, "You have to read carefully, otherwise you will be stupid."

"Then look." Bai Xuehe lay on the soft bed, took a box of snacks, and ate while leaning against the pillow, humming.

Heitan didn't turn his head at first, but he couldn't help turning back later, and finally threw his whole body on top of him.

"Why don't you read any more?" Bai Xuehe put away the dessert box in due course.

Heidan couldn't hold it anymore, he leaned on Bai Xuehe and said, "I'm so hungry."

"Why are you so hungry when I see you?" Bai Xuehe ignored him, and Heidan rolled over, "Probably because you are so pretty and delicious."

Bai Xuehe took a mouthful of snack scum and almost sprayed it on his face, but when he turned his head, he saw Heitan looking serious. He begged for mercy and took out the snack box and stuffed it into Heitan's hand.

"I put so much food here, and it's all for you." Bai Xuehe hurriedly said, "Even if you don't read, I didn't say I wouldn't give you food. Could it be that Yu Yan came back? Or who else?" Say you're stupid."

Heidan ate a few mouthfuls in satisfaction, then suddenly felt that his ambition was not here, so he quickly changed his words: "Actually, I didn't read books just to eat your food."

Since coming here, Bai Xuehe has always left him alone, leaving early and returning late by himself, and when he came back he was so tired that he didn't say a word, Heidan felt very bored, the whole snake was going to die of idleness.

However, things for adults are very complicated, and Heidan doesn't intend to cause trouble for Bai Xuehe, he thinks that if he reads more books and understands more things, Bai Xuehe will take him with him instead of that idiot magistrate.

He plucked up his courage, thought for a while and said, "If you have something to go out in the future, can I follow, I am very obedient."
