Tiance

As soon as the fair and handsome young man came in, Zhao Yi introduced to Bai Jincheng: "Brother Bai, this is Gongsun Ce, the head of Kaifeng Mansion. Mr. Gongsun is not only knowledgeable, but also proficient in medical skills."

Bai Jincheng bowed his hand to Gongsun Ce, but felt puzzled in his heart - what does his knowledgeable and proficient in medical skills have anything to do with me?Why are you introducing him to me?

This is not over yet, while Zhao Yi asked Gongsun Ce to help him heal his wounds, he introduced Lord Bao: "This is Bao Zheng, governor of Kaifeng. Bao Qing is the mainstay of our dynasty. Blue sky'."

Xiaowei Bai bowed his hands to Mr. Bao, feeling even more puzzled.

While Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng were modest, they were also baffled. They didn't know why the officials suddenly praised them like this. What made them feel even more strange was that their officials actually called Bai Jincheng "Brother Bai", and the other party actually acted like that. The look of accepting it calmly.

Zhao Yi began to introduce himself again: "Brother Bai, I actually lied to you. My name is not Zhao Yi, but Zhao Zhen. Oh, but I used to be called Zhao Yiyi."

Bai Jincheng became more and more confused: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Cough," Zhao Zhen was slightly embarrassed, "I just want to ask Brother Bai what his plans are in the future. If he has nowhere to go, why not stay in Kaifeng Mansion? You see, you are my savior, and I really want to repay you. Bao Qing and Mr. Gongsun are also very easy to get along with..."

Bai Jincheng was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hands: "Forget it, if you really want to repay me, you can get me a household registration. If you still feel sorry, just give me some money."

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce looked at him in unison, they probably didn't expect him to be a criminal, nor did they expect him to ask for money so directly.

Zhao Zhen looked at Bai Jincheng worriedly: "The household registration is fine, but Brother Bai, where are you going in the future? You don't seem to have a place to stay here, right?"

Captain Bai shrugged nonchalantly: "It's good to be a ranger in the rivers and lakes."

Zhao Zhen sighed in disappointment.

"Why are you sighing?" Bai Jincheng smiled, "We just met, why are you still reluctant?"

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce looked at him in unison again, almost stunned by him—molest the emperor!I ate the bear heart and leopard gall!

Zhao Zhen was also stunned for a while, and then asked hesitantly: "Brother Bai, you should know who I am, right?"

"I know, you already call Master Bao 'Bao Qing'," Captain Bai said calmly, "But I don't think you are the kind of emperor who would think others are disrespectful just because of a few words. .”

Zhao Zhen smiled and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Bai is so generous!"

"Haha, so-so, so-so." Bai Jincheng happily accepted this evaluation.

"But to be honest, I still suggest you to stay first. After all, you are new here and don't know us very well. Why don't you see the situation first?" Zhao Zhen still wanted to keep him, after all, his ability It's amazing, he has always been an emperor who is thirsty for talent, it would be a pity if he met such a talent so easily, "And I want to ask you one more thing, Bao Qing is too upright, and always I am stern and selfless, and now I am involved in a big case, I am afraid that Qing Bao will be in danger..."

Bai Jincheng raised his eyebrows, "You want me to protect him?"

Zhao Zhen nodded, "Brother Bai, you have great powers, this is not difficult for you, right?"

"Uh...do you get paid?" Bai Jincheng asked a little embarrassedly, "I have a family here, our girl eats a lot, and eats a lot of horse grass every day..."

"Of course, and I haven't thanked you for saving your life yet," Zhao Zhen said bluntly, "Brother Bai's reward will come from my private treasury."

Mr. Bao coughed dryly at the side: "Officer, your private treasury is not very rich, it's better to come out from Kaifeng Mansion."

Zhao Zhen met Bai Jincheng's curious gaze, and smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, I made Brother Bai laugh."

What a strange emperor...

Although Bai Jincheng grew up so big, he had seen two emperors in total, one was Tang Xuanzong who fled to Chengdu, and the other was Zhao Zhen, but Tang Xuanzong was much more majestic than Zhao Zhen.An emperor who is as approachable as Zhao Zhen, and seems to be a bit poor - even his ministers think that his private treasury is not as rich as a government office - is really unheard of.

But such an emperor is quite likable.Bai Jincheng happily agreed: "Okay, then I'll stay and serve as a guard for Mr. Bao for a while."

Zhao Zhen's eyes lit up, and he smiled happily at him: "Then I'll go back to the palace first, and I have to go to court tomorrow, so no one can let people know that I'm not in the palace."

Then he borrowed the official sedan chair from Mr. Bao and went back quietly.

It was probably because of what Zhao Zhen had said to Mr. Bao. Mr. Bao didn't inquire about Bai Jincheng's origin, so he arranged a guest room for him in a very hospitable manner, and even arranged for Niuniu the cleanest and spacious room in the stables.

The next morning, Xiaowei Bai got up very early to practice shooting in the yard in front of the guest room, during which time he heard the little maids of Kaifeng mansion hiding in the corner chattering.

"Oh, is that the new White Guard Mr. Gongsun mentioned?"

"Finally there is a little brother in Kaifeng mansion who can stand up for himself!"

"What are you talking about! Mr. Gongsun can afford it too!"

"But Guard Bai is more handsome! Mr. Gongsun is gentle!"

"Look how chic he is playing with a gun!"

Facing the fiery eyes of the little girls who thought they were hiding, Captain Bai calmly went back to the room to put the gun away, took a small bundle of horse grass and went to the stable to feed Niu Niu.

When I arrived at the stable, I saw Master Bao smilingly feeding Niu Niu with a carrot in one hand and drinking tea with a small teapot in the other.

"Oh, Guard Bai, good morning," Mr. Bao greeted cheerfully, "Have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, let's have breakfast together later?"

It doesn't look like the kind of "unselfish" person...

The two happily chatted while feeding Niu Niu. After breakfast, Mr. Bao was going to court, and he also brought Bai Jincheng with him, because Zhao Zhen had said something before he left last night, and he still had nothing to say. Bai Jincheng finished speaking.

During Lord Bao's reign, Bai Jincheng was taken to the imperial study by a servant, who returned a book to him, saying that the officials asked him to read it to pass the time, and then withdrew.

That book is a history book, from the early Tang Dynasty to the dynasty of Zhao Zhen's father Song Zhenzong.

Zhao Zhen is really careful...

Bai Jincheng was quite touched, he didn't expect Zhao Zhen to remember to prepare this for him when he returned to the palace so late last night.But after looking at that book, that little touch turned into a complexity that I don't know how to describe.Because at the end of the Tang Dynasty, when the world was in chaos and the vassals were separatist, the Southern Tang Dynasty, which took Tang Zuo as its own responsibility, was finally wiped out by Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Zhen's ancestor.

But he doesn't seem to have any reason to hate Zhao Zhen. After all, the royal family of the Southern Tang Dynasty is not the blood of the Li Tang royal family, but only claims to inherit the rule of the Li Tang royal family, and the Tang Dynasty recorded in the history here is not the one he is familiar with. Datang.But if he still gets along with Zhao Zhen without any grievances, he is really uncomfortable.

This tangled mood didn't get any better until he saw Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen sighed: "If I wanted to invite you to serve in the court, you would definitely not want to, would you?"

Bai Jincheng looked calm: "I didn't want to live it from the beginning. And to be your courtier, wouldn't it mean to be respectful to you? In fact, I really wanted to be friends with you at the beginning, and I can't be friends if I am respectful."

Zhao Zhen was surprised, "No one has ever wanted to be friends with me. Your heart is really generous. But why in the first place? Don't you want it now?" He seemed quite regretful.

"Do you really want to? I'm from Tang Dynasty." Bai Jincheng said.

"Think about it," Zhao Zhen looked at him with a smile, his eyes were sincere, "Being friends with an ancient man more than 200 years ago, how many people can meet this kind of adventure?"

Bai Jincheng was silent for a while, and said, "Don't look at me like that, you look too like Niuniu, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist feeding you horse grass."

Zhao Zhen laughed.

It's so pitiful, laughing like this with such a sentence, there must be no entertainment activities in normal times.Captain Bai thought sympathetically.

"Hanzhang," then Zhao Zhen called his name very familiarly, "tell me about your place, I'm quite curious, are all the records in the history books true? Your Majesty Xuanzong told Yang Is the concubine true love?"

...Why are you so gossip.Bai Jincheng looked at him with such eyes, and said helplessly: "I saw His Majesty Xuanzong once or twice when he was in Chengdu. At that time, Concubine Yang Guifei was dead. How can I know if they are true love? You can't ask Anything else?"

"Then how did Li Tan become emperor? Why is it different from what I saw in history?"

So they gossiped about this topic for a long time. Bai Jincheng started from how Li Tan's father Li Heng usurped the throne, and talked about how the Mingjiao helped Li Tan escape the fate of being executed by Li Heng, and how he put down the Anshi Rebellion and finally ascended the throne. Interspersed with explanations of the top ten sects, Zhao Zhen's desire for gossip was fully satisfied.

Finally, Zhao Guanjia asked with a smile: "Hanzhang, are you interested in building a sect similar to Tiance Mansion here?"

"Huh?" Bai Jincheng was dumbfounded, "What do you want to do?"

"Didn't you say that your Tiance Mansion is an institution that handles Jianghu affairs for the imperial court? There are also many chivalrous people who violate the law here, but we have not had any special office to deal with these matters," Zhao Zhenyi Looking forward to it, "You are so experienced, why don't you start your old business? I will definitely support you!"

Building a Tiance Mansion in a strange world sounds pretty good...

Captain Bai fell into deep thought.
