The loyal minister was forced to marry the traitor

Master Bai was annoyed.

The next day, Master Xiao Hou strolled "passing" through the Bai Mansion, only to learn that Bai Yan had gone to the Inspector's Office early in the morning.

After thinking about it, Lord Xiao Hou still felt that he should not provoke people to suspect him now, so he turned around and went to the barracks.

On the other hand, as soon as Bai Yan arrived at the Procuratorate, he was only halfway through the official business at hand, when someone asked to see him.

The person who came was a sweeper from the Inspectorate. He was dressed in coarse sackcloth and lowered his head when he spoke. He handed a letter to Bai Yan, "My lord, someone was standing outside the Inspectorate this morning. Several times I asked you to hand over this letter to me. here you are."

Bai Yan took it, checked it first, found nothing wrong, he was not in a hurry to open it, and asked Sasao, "Do you know that person?"

"I don't know him. The other party wears a bamboo hat and speaks deliberately in a low voice. He is a man in his thirties."

Bai Yan nodded, "Okay, I see." He asked people to go down, but the man stopped suddenly when he reached the door, "My lord, I don't know if I heard it wrong, that man doesn't seem to be from Yingdu, listen The tone of his voice is a bit like that of a foreigner."

"Foreigner?" Bai Yan was taken aback.

"It's not exactly the same, but the young one has seen foreign businessmen come to do business, and there is a big difference between the words and expressions."

"Beidi, Nanyi, Xirong, or Jurchen, which tribe do you think the other party looks like?" Bai Yan spoke and tried to say a word for him to listen to each other.

Sasao thought for a while, "It looks like a Beidi person."

Bai Yan didn't know what was in his mind, so he quickly opened the envelope, and sure enough, there was no girder writing inside, he frowned and looked at it, but he only knew a little bit, so he thought for a while and simply took the letter and went out.

He walked all the way along the corridor to the other side. Many people in the Inspectorate saw him and glanced at him, but very few people greeted him.

"Master Bai, where are you going in such a hurry?" One person was unavoidably curious.

Bai Yan stopped in his tracks, "Do you know where Master Ba has gone?"

"Lord Ba?" The man scratched his head, "It seems that he has been on leave for many days, I heard that his mother in the house is not feeling well recently, and his only son is also sick, so he probably won't be able to leave for these two days."

Bai Yan thought for a while, and finally found someone to ask Master Ba's mansion.

Mr. Ba is a man who is easy to inquire about gossip and talkative, but he is kind. When Bai Yan first came to the Inspectorate, almost everyone held great malice towards him and staggered him for a long time. But only Mr. Ba, who helps Bai Yan to speak from time to time, doesn't get angry when he is ridiculed, and just smiles cheerfully.

Over time, Bai Yan got closer to him, and the two occasionally went out for a few drinks after finishing their official duties, but they got along happily.

Bai Yan had never been to Lord Ba's residence before, so he only knew a general location, this time he went there and he didn't have time to send a greeting card, so he only bought some tonics and gifts to bring with him.

The servants of Ba's mansion quickly welcomed him in, and it didn't take long for Mr. Ba to rush to the flower hall. It was obvious that he was in a hurry and his clothes were a little messy.

Bai Yan stood up, "It's really too hasty to come to the door, so I invite Haihan."

"Where is there, Mr. Bai came to the humble house, and it was full of brilliance. If I knew you were coming, I would have swept the couch to welcome you." As soon as Mr. Ba opened his mouth, Bai Yan laughed, "Okay, okay, you and I will also welcome you." Don't be polite."

Master Ba also smiled, "It is also true."

The two sat down, and Bai Yan didn't intend to be too polite, so he got straight to the point, took out the letter and handed it to Lord Ba.

"This is?" Mr. Ba was a little puzzled.

Bai Yan briefly explained to him, Master Ba also frowned, "People from Beidi sent you a letter?"

It sounded strange, Mr. Ba didn't delay any more, he quickly opened the envelope and read it again. He understood Beidi dialect and had also learned Beidi's characters. He recounted the contents of the letter to Bai Yan without any hindrance.

"...It means that there are Beidi spies in Yingdu now?" Bai Yan's eyes dimmed.

"That's what it said in it, and if you only read the content inside, it doesn't seem to be a lie. Before Pingjinhou escorted Beidi's surrender to Yingdu, and later handed over the letter of surrender and left. The letter emphasized that the team that left at the beginning was There are fewer people."

"The details are described in detail, just looking at it this way, it doesn't seem to be a lie."

Bai Yan rubbed his fingertips, "If it's true, why did the other party tell me about it? If it's false, why did he invent it?"

Master Ba was not worried about this, he folded the letter and handed it to Bai Yan, "Master Bai, no matter what, the other party's visitor is not kind, whether it is true or not, he just came to you because he has other plans."

"It doesn't matter what the other party's plan is, I'd rather believe it or not," Bai Yan received the letter and planned to find Xiao Jiuqin.

But at this moment, the servants of the Ba Mansion hurried over and said a few words in Mr. Ba's ear. Mr. Ba's face changed suddenly. When he got up, he accidentally knocked down the cup on the table and smashed it to pieces on the ground.

Bai Yan looked at him worriedly, "Lord Ba?"

"It's all right, Mr. Bai, you go and do your own work. If something happens in the house, the next official will not see you off."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Bai Yan and left in a hurry.

Mr. Ba didn't want to say too much, after all it was a matter of his family's house, and Bai Yan didn't want to ask too much, the housekeeper sent him out of the house, so he went to Hou's house.

It's just that he never expected that Xiao Jiuqin's absence would cause him to meet someone who gave him a headache.

"Bai Yan!"

Xiao Jiuqin went to the barracks, and Bai Yan was going to find Huai Chun, but unexpectedly, the carriage bumped into the carriage of the Grand Master's Mansion.

The two met head to head, and the moment Bai Yan lifted the curtain and said a word, the curtain of the other's carriage suddenly opened, a delicate voice sounded, and a beautiful face appeared in sight.

Bai Yan pulled down the curtain of the car suddenly, and the other party suddenly became unhappy, and said in an aggrieved voice, "Is that why you don't want to see me?"

Bai Yan in the carriage pretended to be dead, wondering if it was too late to jump out of the carriage.

"Bai Yan!" The woman shouted again, and the pedestrians around couldn't help but look at her, and there were faint voices of talking.

Bai Yan's eyelids twitched, and he had no choice but to lift the curtain of the car, "Miss Yun, I have something urgent to do, I'll see you another day..."

"How urgent is it?" The woman is Yun Qiyin, the young lady of the Grand Master's Mansion. It hasn't been long since she returned to Ying, and she has asked others about Bai Yan's whereabouts several times. The last time Huai Chun in the palace reminded her once, she didn't expect What a coincidence today.

Bai Yan had a toothache, but he still replied patiently, "It's very important, so I don't want to tell you, but I really don't mean to be perfunctory to you."

Yun Qiyin frowned slightly, "Is that so..."

She looked at Bai Yan's face again, "I believe you won't lie, how about this, you get busy with important things first, and when I come to you again someday, you are not allowed to shirk, okay?"

Although she is a young lady of the Grand Master's Mansion, she was pampered since she was a child, but Yun Qiyin is not domineering and has no bad habits other than her young daughter's mannerisms.

It was also because of this that Bai Yan did not evade in every possible way. He was relieved to hear what Yun Qiyin said. As long as this golden lady doesn't mess around, he doesn't need to deceive her.

"Just follow Miss's wishes." Bai Yan also took a step back.

"Then it's settled, you go first." Yun Qiyin even ordered the groom to make way for Bai Yan and told him to go first.

For this, Bai Yan was very grateful, and urged the groom to leave quickly, and he finally let go of his breath after walking a long way.

Back then, Grand Master Yun brought him back to the mansion and lived in the mansion for a month. During this time, he was only recovering from his injuries and never stepped out of the house, but the young lady of the mansion couldn't prevent him from coming to look for him.

In fact, it is a little girl with a heart, usually confined in the boudoir, suddenly heard that there is a young man living in the mansion, who is four years older than her, which is considered to be about the same age, so she came to have a look.

It's okay if you just leave after looking at it, but this young lady likes beauties, and this "beauty" is not limited to women, as far as she is concerned, it doesn't matter if it is a man or a woman, or even an animal, or even a utensil, as long as it looks good , she likes it.

But what Bai Yan did not lack was beauty, and Yun Qiyin fell in love with him with just one glance.

In fact, there is no love between a man and a woman. She just likes it. In that month, every two days, she would go to Bai Yan's place, either to bring some food or buy some gadgets. little pet.

Feed him something to eat, tease him a few more times, Bai Yan was so disturbed that he asked someone to tell Grand Master Yun about it within a few days.

Unexpectedly, Grand Master Yun didn't care too much, and just casually told the servants in the mansion to look at the ladies and not to bully Bai Yan.

After hearing the original words, Bai Yan almost spit out his old blood, but the way of counting on Grand Master Yun to discipline his daughter would not work. Bai Yan had no choice but to negotiate with Yun Qiyin himself, but... this lady She is indeed a strange woman, she came to look for Bai Yan, no matter whether she spoke politely or spoke hard, this young lady still had a bright face.

After a long time, Bai Yan had no choice but to let her go.

However, the fact that the two of them don't care doesn't mean that others don't care either.

After Bai Yan left the grand master's mansion, rumors gradually spread that grand master Yun's son-in-law, Chenglong Kuai, was the adopted son of Marquis Pingjin.

Or, bluntly speaking, Bai Yan was insidious and cunning, and deceived the lady of the Grand Master's Mansion, causing the other party to ask for marriage.

In the following period of time, the version changed a few times, and in the end even Grand Master Yun suspected that Bai Yan had cheated his precious daughter, and made things difficult for Bai Yan in the court several times.

Bai Yan was full of helplessness and had nowhere to tell, but something happened not long after, which directly made his reputation even worse. One time Grand Master Yun walked away in front of him. This time, the rumors were directly changed. During that time, when he was walking on the road, someone threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at him in the dark.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan was helpless, his reputation had already been rotten, but he didn't expect that girl Yun Qiyin to dare to join him.

In the end, Bai Yan was willing to get closer to Xiao Jiu, Qin Huaichun and the others. He didn't dare to provoke others, including that girl Yun Qiyin. He didn't want to get too close to her, lest the innocent disaster be implicated in that girl.

It is not suitable for Taishifu and him to have too much contact, Bai Yan knows this clearly.

Thinking about something in his heart, the carriage went outside Huai Chun's mansion, but he didn't expect that Huai Chun was not there, instead, he met someone who was beyond his expectation.

"Your Highness." Bai Yan bowed and saluted.

The other party was dressed in brocade clothes, covered with a cloak, just got off the carriage, and was obviously surprised when he saw Bai Yan, and he spoke warmly, "Master Bai, don't come here without any problems, I heard that you went to Yongzhou Mansion a while ago Disaster relief, it’s hard for you.”

Bai Yan bowed again, "Your Highness speaks seriously."
