you got on my tail

Bai Xuehe couldn't help being looked at by those round eyes, so he could only rub his head, then nodded.

Heidan was so happy that he didn't even bother to eat snacks, he hurriedly took off his shoes and ran to the bed, and began to get ready to sleep obediently.

"But you have to follow me all the time." Bai Xuehe tucked the quilt up for him, thought about it and said: "If anyone talks to you, come back and tell me."

"I won't believe them... Last time..." Heidan thought for a while, and his voice became smaller and smaller, "Last time you kept ignoring me and always stayed with that idiot, you wronged me for sneaking out, So angry..."

"You scare me when you're angry." Bai Xuehe turned her head and patted his butt lightly, "I thought you were going to run away..."

"Huh? Where am I going?" Heitan didn't know what to say, and tilted his head carelessly, as if he had long forgotten what happened earlier.

"Forget it." Bai Xuehe shook his hand, "Sleep."

Heidan quickly fell asleep, Bai Xuehe looked at the round head, and still angrily grabbed the balls stuck on it, he really didn't expect that Lu Yongning would dare to talk nonsense about the emperor's hearsay to his concubine, it's really stupid It's poisonous, I don't understand why such a person was recruited?

Bai Xuehe was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought that since he is a jailer in the sky prison, he should have an unusual background.

But one day, the province led troops to surround the magistrate's mansion, and Lan Ziqing had also written a letter, but he did not appear again. After Jinyi guarded the coal mine, Bai Xuehe returned to the county with the black egg.

The coal mine was supervised by Xu Yan's younger brother Xu Gao, and the matter even involved selling officials to kill people, and there was an uproar in the court for a while.

During the few days waiting for the reply of the imperial decree, she had nothing to do, either eating or sleeping. Three days later, she slept until noon. Wei Lan ran into the room in a hurry, carrying a lot of things in her hands.

Heidan was trying to comb his hair, and his two Thousand Miles Snake's eyes lit up when he saw Wei Lan coming in. Then he walked to the door angrily, stretched out his hand and pushed him out.

"This is Lord Bai's room." The child put his hands on his hips, "You have to knock on the door first."

"Yes yes yes." Wei Lan retreated back in a low voice, then knocked three times with a smile.

Bai Xuehe was lying on the bed, listening to their conversation and smiling, without any intention of getting up.

"Okay." Heidan nodded and pointed to the door, "You can go out now."

"what?"

Master Wei's smirk stayed on his face, the successful Heidan was triumphant, and Bai Xuehe laughed so hard that he almost rolled on the bed.

Only then did he get up slowly, half-stepping on his shoes and going out, "Master Wei, I offended you."

"Young master asked me to knock on the door. What you said makes sense!" Wei Lan said good things as always, and entered the room cautiously. Just as Heidan was about to say something, a bright red candied haws had already been stuffed into the little paw.

"Ah?" Heitan froze for a moment, his dimples moved, and he swallowed not too obviously.

"This is made by a master invited by the capital. Look at this hawthorn, the color of sugar!" Wei Lan opened her mouth wide and danced, "This is a cake that can only be made with the craftsmanship of the palace..."

Heidan was determined and looked at Bai Xuehe.

"You can eat it if he gives it to you." Before Bai Xuehe finished speaking, Heidan took a quick bite, and then felt a little shy, and quickly ran into the bedroom.

"Sit down." Bai Xuehe raised his hand, and before pouring tea, Wei Lan quickly followed up with the next movement, with a clear expression on his face, but a smile on his face, hesitant to speak.

"Did you offend me?" Bai Xuehe quickly reacted, and continued: "By the way, where is Lan Ziqing?"

When Heidan heard this name, he ran out with jealousy again. Wei Lan shook his head, "Let's investigate his case."

"Where did he go?" Bai Xuehe asked in a deep voice, with a serious expression on his face that he couldn't believe.

"He's gone to the capital." Wei Lan had no choice but to answer with a wry smile, and quickly explained, "The emperor ordered...to see you..."

"You won't discuss it with me when the emperor made an order?" Bai Xuehe pushed away the tea, "He's such an idiot, when he sees the emperor, don't..."

"My lord, don't be soft-hearted." Wei Lan raised her head and said softly, "Lu Yongning has always been stubborn. He doesn't want to stand out. The coal mine is run by Xu Yan's younger brother Xu Gao. Now those adults are biting us."

"Then you should tell me." Bai Xuehe laughed angrily, "At least I will inform the emperor..."

"What kind of temper is the emperor, don't you know?" Wei Lan's voice was a little higher, "You speak for him, not to add fuel to the fire..."

Bai Xuehe was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Forget it, your people went to the prison, did you find anything?"

"That's natural." Wei Lan regained his demeanor, and said with a dog-legged smile: "The current magistrate was originally called Ruan Jin, and he has some skills, but he has never passed martial arts. He has been in the capital for a few years before he asked someone to be a jailer , don't look at this man as vulgar and talkative, but trouble will come."

"What?" Bai Xuehe raised his head, suddenly having a strange premonition.

"He is from Ruan Jianghe's hometown. At that time, the abolished prince was still... the prince. He said that he was a relative of Mr. Zhan Shiruan in the prince's mansion. He bought a position by bluffing and deceiving. Otherwise, the prison is very heavy, how could he just get in? You It is said that Ruan Jianghe always pretends to be innocent, but in fact..."

He looked at Bai Xuehe a little absent-mindedly, stopped talking and asked: "Master Bai?"

"You're right." Bai Xuehe smiled, "I have a secret document, you should send it to the emperor quickly."

Then he got up and folded his sleeves, "Let's go see Mr. Lu."

As Bai Xuehe expected, Lan Ziqing followed Jin Yiwei all the way into the Imperial City Hall, but his back was still straight, even kneeling there.

After kowtowing, he straightened his back, and his eyes neither glanced away nor lowered cowardly.

Fu Jiying turned her head back, feeling uncomfortable with such a ninth-rank sesame official kneeling in the golden palace, but she still raised her hand and smiled, "Get up."

Lan Ziqing thanked her politely, her footsteps did not change, her Mandarin did not have a capital accent, and she looked like a country bumpkin.

When the courtiers saw him, they often took two steps back after getting up. Fu Jiying frowned, feeling somewhat disgusted in his heart, but without Lan Ziqing, the courtiers would not have believed in Bai Xuehe.

Xu Yan is both a general and a veteran, so it is inevitable that he has many ties to many people. As soon as this incident happened, Xu Yan immediately asked Xu Gao to take the blame and plead guilty, and there was a queen mother crying in the palace, saying that Xu Gao did not sell officials to kill people. people.

Fu Jiying was suspicious and always hated forming cliques, but Xu Yangong was tactful and not as easy to deal with as Liu Yan.

"The mine accident sounds incredible to me." Fu Jiying said with a smile, "Although Aiqing's official position is not high, she has a clever mind and dares to speak out. It's just that General Xu has worked hard and made great achievements. I don't believe he will do so."

"I don't believe it either." Lan Ziqing cupped her hands, not understanding the deep meaning of Fu Jiying's words, "The key evidence is what Master Qingbai of Dali Temple said, and I only found out something strange about the mine accident."

"You mean, Bai Xuehe is incompetent as the Minister of Dali Temple?" Fu Jiying smiled, looking up at the paperwork on the table.

"Chen..." Lan Ziqing raised his head, and it was Fu Jiying's gentle but stern face. He was suddenly speechless for this question, "I just feel that the evidence is not enough..."

"That's good." Fu Jiying smiled, "Ai Qing thinks, what kind of evidence should there be?"

"The coal mine hasn't been opened, so it's not clear whether it's a mine disaster or not." Lan Ziqing replied sternly, "Lu Yongning is also under the control of Jin Yiwei, so he didn't ask any questions..."

"You're right." Fu Jiying interrupted a little impatiently, "Since Bai Xuehe is incompetent, I demoted his official position and made you the Minister of Dali Temple. You must handle it impartially and don't disappoint me. .”

On the way Lan Ziqing came, some people hinted that Bai Xuehe was the emperor's favored minister and that he was the one who caused the disaster, but he didn't expect this to be the result. Fu Jiying's smile was full of encouragement, he quickly lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down, saying loudly : "I will not disappoint the emperor."

"Hmm." Fu Jiying's expression was still loving the people like a child, kind and compassionate. He raised his hand and signaled Lan Ziqing to go out.

Then he turned around, rubbed his forehead with quite a headache, and raised his hand to call for the maid.

The maid brought fragrant tea, Fu Jiying took a sip and put the teacup on the table.

There was also Bai Xuehe's memorial on the table, which said that the emperor should give Lan Ziqing an official position first.

Xu Yan is still outside the Great Wall, so to cooperate with him, Xu Gao cannot be moved, let alone thoroughly investigated whether he is related to the traitor party, but the battle will not last forever, and there are generals in Da Zhou, Fu Jiying will not allow him to dominate.

Lan Ziqing is honest and upright, he is afraid that he will not use torture, so he can deal with Ruan Jin who refuses to confess for a long time.

Fu Jiying turned the pages of the book and smiled lightly, thinking that Bai Xuehe gave up Liu Yan's pursuit of Xu Yan to cause some trouble, as long as there is Xitong ointment, this person will only be a pet for the rest of his life.

"Your Majesty?" At this time, the eunuch at the door came softly, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Something from outside the Great Wall was delivered to Lord Bai's residence, and they said it was General Xun."

"Show me." Fu Jiying turned her head coldly.
