The loyal minister was forced to marry the traitor

Bai Yan and Xiao Jiuqin slipped away.

To be precise, Xiao Jiuqin "captured" Bai Yan away.

Mr. Bai couldn't struggle... No, he was too lazy to struggle.

The two hadn't been together for quite a while, so Xiao Jiuqin brought Bai Yan back to the Hou Mansion directly, not only that, but he also ordered his servants to prepare a table of wine and food.

Mr. Bai was a little puzzled, he looked at Xiao Jiuqin, "You look like a Hongmen banquet..."

After hearing what he said, Xiao Jiuqin didn't pay attention to it. Instead, he cleaned his hands and picked up the dishes on the table one by one for him.

"I'll do it myself." Bai Yan always felt weird.

Although the officials have become bigger and bigger over the years, and there are many waiters around him, he was not used to being served in the past, and most of them did it by themselves, except for the more "complicated" things like combing hair. Everything else is done by himself.

Xiao Jiuqin wasn't persistent either, Ren Baiyan himself had a choice of dishes.

When Bai Yan was half full, Xiao Jiuqin.Put down the chopsticks first and look at Bai Yan.

Bai Yan raised his eyes, "Finally willing to speak?"

"Actually, it's not a very important matter. I just want to tell you that the day of our marriage has been chosen."

Bai Yan was slightly taken aback, "What day is it?"

"Laba Festival."

Xiao Jiuqin did not tell Bai Yan that he summoned all the famous monks and priests in Yingdu on this day, even alchemists and fortune tellers.

They all think that it is a rare and good day for getting married on the Laba Festival.

After hearing Xiao Jiuqin's words, Bai Yan suddenly became flustered.

Laba Festival.

That is not far from now.

His current feeling is like something he has been waiting for, and suddenly one day suddenly appears in front of you.You are within reach, but at the same time there is a sense of restlessness.

Xiao Jiuqin seemed to see Bai Yan's uneasiness, he put his hand on the back of Bai Yan's hand and patted it lightly, and comforted him, "What should be prepared is already ready, just wait for the day when you and I visit the church marriage."

"Don't worry, there will be no problem."

Bai Yan hummed lightly.

The two talked for a while, and suddenly a person rushed in from outside.

"Master Hou, something happened in the Grand Master's Mansion!"

"what happened?"

"Master He sent someone here to tell Master Hou and Master Bai that it is said that Mr. Zeng Xuan and Zeng are missing."

Bai Yan and Xiao Jiuqin's complexion changed, and Bai Yan asked directly, "When did you disappear? What's going on?"

"The servant girls in the Grand Master's Mansion only said that Mr. Zeng went out on his own initiative. Only one servant and a horse breeder had seen him, but no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find him. I asked all the people who had seen him. The person’s confession is now at a loss, not even a single strand of his hair has been found.”

When Bai Yan heard that there was still something he didn't understand, he looked at Xiao Jiuqin, and told him almost conclusively, "This is Grand Master Yun's method, he probably thought about it early in the morning, and now it's just the original plan It's settled..." Bai Yan paused, "We met him in the garden earlier, it was probably his cover-up."

Xiao Jiuqin frowned, "The most important thing now is Song Que. Both of you and I know the relationship between Song Que and Zeng Xuan. If Grand Master Yun angers him, he will confront the Grand Master, and then there will be a lot of trouble. It will be more than just a conflict between courtiers... Once the emperor in the palace finds out, it will not only be difficult to protect himself if everyone is involved, but the emperor will not favor a certain person, he will only take the opportunity to make trouble.

"You should immediately send someone to look for Zeng Xuan at all costs, even if you search for all the clues, you have to find Zeng Xuan and send it to Song Que... This person has a strange mind and a deep city. If the court is disturbed because of this matter, then even if Zeng Xuan is found later, the emperor will not tolerate him."

Xiao Jiuqin immediately understood what Bai Yan meant.

Instead of waiting for the emperor to attack and let Song Que go crazy, it is better for them to act first, find Zeng Xuan, and send him to Song Que intact.

Song Que was not Xiao Jiuqin and the others, so he didn't know that Wei Chengdan was not completely on the side of Grand Master Yun from the beginning to the end.

Rather than saying that Wei Chengdan colluded with Grand Master Yun, it is better to say that he has no intention of being emperor at all, and it is Grand Master Yun and Huai Chun who pushed him forward.

But no matter what, Song Que didn't know the inside story. In his opinion, Zeng Xuan's disappearance was planned by Grand Master Yun, but it was also Wei Chengtan's order.

Therefore, the struggle between the two could easily explode, and the point of explosion was Zeng Xuan.

Xiao Jiuqin's people were all hiding in the dark, but Bai Yan's people tried their best to find Zeng Xuan in all the hidden places in Yingdu.

Bai Yan never believed that the most dangerous place was the safest place, Grand Master Yun was a crafty and cunning person, he couldn't put people within Song Que's reach.

Sure enough, not long after, someone came to spread the news that there was no trace of Zeng Xuan, and the carriages of the various families left after hearing the news.

As for whether Zeng Xuan was hidden among them, no one dared to easily judge.

What's more, many people were dumbfounded that Song Que didn't play cards according to common sense. From the beginning, he definitely said that it was Grand Master Yun's handwriting. If someone didn't stop him, he would almost turn Taishi's mansion upside down.

But before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Bai Yan received the news that Song Que rushed into the Grand Master's mansion directly with the emperor's edict, almost turning the Grand Master upside down, and Grand Master Yun was so angry that he almost fainted. Qiyin confronted Song Que while protecting the grand master, but she was scolded and cried.

When Bai Yan heard the news, he happened to meet Xiao Jiuqin. The two of them looked at each other and sighed, but they had no choice but to rush over to help in the next moment.

Fearing that Song Que would go completely mad and order the Grand Master's Mansion, Bai Yan and Xiao Jiuqin rode together and arrived quickly, and held him down when the two sides were quarreling.

"Even if you are the prince, even if His Majesty is ashamed of you, you shouldn't be so presumptuous at this time..." Bai Yan hurried over, before he had time to catch his breath, he was a little dizzy when he said this ,

But Song Que was clearly insane, he pushed Bai Yan away, almost knocking him down, if Xiao Jiuqin hadn't reacted so quickly to grab him, Bai Yan would have thrown something bad this time.

Without waiting for Bai Yan to come back to his senses, the next moment Xiao Jiuqin kicked Song Que's chest, causing him to fly flat.

And Song Que was obviously a trainer, he got up a few times, rubbed his chest roughly, spit a mouthful of blood, and rushed over.

Naturally, Xiao Jiuqin was not afraid of his attack, the two of them started fighting with each other, if Bai Yan hadn't scolded them to stop them, there would have been a commotion at the entrance of the Grand Master's Mansion.

But frankly, the situation is not much better now.

Bai Yan was covering his injured arm, surrounded by many common people, all of them were watching these noble clans making a scene here, Song Que was a stranger, but they knew the rest of them,

It was already out of control when things got to this point, especially the entanglement between Bai Yan and Xiao Jiuqin was still the subject of constant speculation and confusion, but the crowd watched the "loyal minister" avenge the "traitor".

Bai Yan's reputation is not good, but at this time he gave more material to make up stories.

What about "Master Xiao vowed to take revenge himself, and would never do anything to others", "Xiao Jiuqin colluded with Grand Master Yun", what's more, Song Que was identified as Bai Yan's confidant, the relationship between the two of them was strange...

Bai Yan could no longer care about these gossips, but Song Que still fought against Xiao Jiuqin regardless of life or death.Xiao Jiuqin saw that he didn't cry when he didn't see the coffin, and finally "helplessly" kicked the person down, and pressed one knee on Song Que's back.

"If you want to go crazy, change places!"

People who don't know the inside story naturally don't know that Lord Xiao Hou kicked the prince and grandson over, but the faces of those who know have changed.

Xiao Jiuqin was really not easy to mess with, and besides the scheming Bai Yan, everyone felt that they seemed to be making a big fuss in the Grand Master's Mansion, saying everything at once.

"Look, you really don't pay attention to the Grand Master at all! This Bai Yan is too scheming, and even Master Xiao Hou fell into his trap, fighting for him."

"That's right, they all look vicious. These people must have been brought by this treacherous villain. He is not a good person on weekdays. Have you all forgotten how many evil things he did in the past... And ah, I don't think he even knows his name now!"

"Besides, I heard that it was thanks to Master Taishi that Bai Yan left the imperial prison. If it wasn't for his efforts, this traitor would have died in it long ago... Now he is leading people to make a scene at the gate of Taishi's mansion. It is really an evil thing that repays virtue with hatred, such a person deserves to die..."

Xiao Jiuqin couldn't take it anymore after listening to a few sentences, he turned around and was about to walk towards the crowd, but was held down by Bai Yan.

"It's just a few words without knowing the inside story, I don't care."

Xiao Jiuqin looked at his profile, but the next moment he still broke free from Bai Yan's shackles, and took a few steps to stand in front of those nonsense people.

"Whether it's a traitorous minister or a sycophant, what's hindering you?"

"Whether he is a good guy or a bad guy, it's up to you! If you dare to say something wrong about him, you will be in the same trouble as this!"

As he spoke, he stepped hard, and a hole was formed on the ground.

Bai Yan next to him had dark eyes.

If it was in the past, Xiao Jiuqin would definitely listen to Bai Yan's words and would not care about these common people.

But today, he can't listen anymore. Bai Yan has suffered enough injuries. The words of these people are like knives soaked in salt water. riddled with holes.

His reaction was beyond everyone's expectations, and it has to be said that the effect was remarkable.

The crowd was as quiet as a chicken.

As for Bai Yan, although he had already told himself not to care about these things, when he heard these people's bad words, how could he not be affected at all.

But this time someone was protecting him, Bai Yan suddenly felt that all this was nothing.

Before Bai Yan could have any thoughts, Xiao Jiuqin opened his mouth again, "Remember, you can also tell others that I, Xiao Jiuqin, have said all this today, and if anyone dares to scold him again in the future... ...I will definitely teach him today's lesson forever."

"In addition, on the day of the Laba Festival, Benhou and Bai Yan got married. From now on, I will share weal and woe with him. If you insult him, you will insult me..."
