Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo stayed at Wu's house for lunch, and then Xiao Zimo was called to the study by Wu Honglang.

Wan Yasu looked at Wu Bai and said expectantly: "Brother Bai, you said before that you would give me the antidote."

"That's right." Wu Bai took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Wan Yasu.

"Thank you, Brother Bai." Wan Yasu quickly took the porcelain bottle, poured out the pill and swallowed it directly.

After taking the antidote, Wan Yasu's gaze towards Wu Bai was no longer as respectful as before, but a hint of malice flashed faintly.

Wu Bai naturally saw her eyes, but he didn't take the other party seriously. As long as the other party dared to offend him again, he would not be able to talk this time.

Wan Yasu just got the medicine, although she hated Wu Bai in her heart, she was still afraid of the poison in Wu Bai's hands, so she didn't dare to throw face at Wu Bai.

She made a fake smile and exchanged greetings with Wu Bai. At this moment, Xiao Zimo walked in, held Wu Bai's hand, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Wu Bai shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything."

"It's late, shall we go back?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"Okay!" Wu Bai nodded.

After leaving the Wu residence, Wu Bai asked, "What did father call you to the study?"

Xiao Zimo didn't hide anything, and replied truthfully: "Father-in-law wants to ask me to help him go up."

"Then what do you think?" Wu Bai asked back.

"I'm working in Dali Temple now, and I'm not very familiar with the officials of the Ministry of Officials, so I can't help him naturally. My father-in-law seems a little angry." Xiao Zimo said.

"You don't need to help him, I think it's good for him to stay in this position." Wu Bai said casually.

Xiao Zimo was surprised: "You think so?"

Wu Bai nodded and said, "That's right, he can give up everything for his rights, I just want to see him stay in this position."

"Thank you for your hard work." Xiao Zimo looked at Wu Bai with a distressed face.

He doesn't know Wu Bai's past life, but he can tell from Wu Bai's relationship with Wu Bai's family that their relationship is not harmonious, and thinking that Wan Yasu is Wu Bai's stepmother, he can probably imagine that Wu Bai must have had a bad life before. .

Although his marriage with Wu Bai ended in a hurry, but he didn't know why, but he always felt that Wu Bai had an incomparably mysterious sense of familiarity to him, and this sense of familiarity made him involuntarily want to protect Wu Bai.

"It's okay, all of this has passed." Wu Bai said in relief.

"Let's go back, the Xiao family will be your home from now on." Xiao Zimo promised.

"Yeah." Wu Bai smiled slightly.

Two months later, Wu Honglang suddenly came to Xiao's residence.

Wu Bai walked into the hall, just in time to see the other party and Xiao Zimo talking.

"Father, why are you here?" Wu Bai asked.

Wu Honglang saw Wu Bai, as if he had found a savior, he hurriedly said, "Brother Bai, please help me as a father."

"What's the matter?" Wu Bainahan asked.

Xiao Zimo explained: "Father-in-law has been demoted."

"Demotion? What's going on?" Wu Bai asked puzzled.

"My father just accidentally made a small mistake, but he was caught by his opponent. The other party took advantage of this incident and refused to let him go. Now my father will be demoted to Guning County as the county magistrate. Brother Bai, you came just in time , help me persuade my son-in-law to find a way to stay in the capital for his father." Wu Honglang said as a matter of course.

"Guning County!" Wu Bai read.

"That's right, my father heard that Guning County is a very small and remote county town. Usually, when you go there, you have no way to leave there and return to the capital, except to survive to Zhishi." Wu Honglang said with a bitter face.

"I think this county is pretty good, and it's quite suitable for you, father." Wu Bai nodded.

Wu Honglang looked at Wu Bai angrily, and said, "Nonsense, what do you know!"

Wu Bai spread his hands and said: "Since my father said that I don't understand these things, then I don't care."

"You! You are extremely stupid. Do you think that you have nothing to do with the Wu family if you marry the Xiao family and leave the Wu family? If you don't have a strong natal family, what do you think you will end up with in the future!" Wu Hong Lang said sharply.

Xiao Zimo said with displeasure on his face: "Brother Bai married into the Xiao family, and he is from my Xiao family. If father-in-law talks like this, does it mean that he doesn't take me seriously?"

"You!" Wu Honglang looked at Xiao Zimo who was going to support Wu Bai, and softened his tone, "My son-in-law, you misunderstood, being a father is also thinking of brother Bai, you don't want his natal family to lose, do you?"

Xiao's mother came in from the door and interjected: "My in-laws are joking, our Xiao family is not one of those who hold high and low."

Xiao Zimo looked at Xiao's mother, and echoed: "What mother said is very true."

Wu Honglang's face darkened, he looked at Wu Bai, and asked, "Brother Bai, do you think so too?"

Wu Bai nodded and said, "Mother is right."

"Okay, you are really nice!" Wu Honglang pointed at Wu Bai angrily, if Xiao Zimo hadn't been half in front of him, he would have slapped this unfilial son to death.

"It hurts my health, my in-laws should sit down and have a cup of tea, so as not to hurt my health, outsiders think my Xiao family doesn't treat guests well." Mother Xiao invited with a smile.

"No need." Wu Honglang stomped his feet angrily, flung his sleeves and left Xiao's house.

As soon as he left, Xiao's mother looked at Wu Bai who looked weak, her eyes were filled with distress, and she didn't know how much the child had suffered to grow so big. Looking at Wu Honglang's appearance just now, she knew that the other party didn't treat Wu Bai at all. Bai put it in his eyes, thinking of Wu Bai's loss of his mother when he was young, Xiao's mother's loving heart could not help but emerge.

"Bai Geer, you are now a member of the Xiao family. Here, you don't have to be restrained. If there is anything you want to eat, just ask the servants to get it for you." Mother Xiao urged.

Wu Bai nodded obediently, and said, "Yes, mother, I know."

Xiao Zimo took Wu Bai back to their yard, Wu Bai asked: "I always feel that there is something wrong with my father being demoted this time, can you help me find out what's going on?"

"Yes." Xiao Zimo nodded.

The next day, Xiao Zimo returned home and told Wu Bai the truth.

"You said there was Prince Jing's handwriting in it?" Wu Bai asked in surprise.

"If the investigation is correct, it should be Prince Jing who succeeded. He might not be able to take revenge on me, so he took his anger out on my father-in-law. In this way, my father-in-law also suffered for me. I was thinking, how about helping him? ?” Xiao Zimo asked.

"No, Prince Jing really couldn't do anything to you, so he chose to do it to his father, but his father didn't suffer for you, but for me." Wu Bai said.

Xiao Zimo asked suspiciously, "For you?"

Wu Bai nodded and said, "That's right, last year's autumn hunting, you didn't participate, I followed to the Mulan paddock, and I saw with my own eyes that Prince Jing wanted to assassinate His Majesty."

"What? He is so brave, he dared to attack His Majesty!" Xiao Zimo was shocked.

"He was hiding in the dark at the time. Your Majesty was entangled by the killer he sent, and he had no time to care about other things. I didn't find him at all. At that time, I saw him shoot an arrow at Your Majesty. In a hurry, I shot his arrow and missed it. It also caused him to discover my existence, presumably because of this, he held a grudge against me." Wu Bai explained.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a twists and turns. I heard about the assassination of His Majesty Qiu Lie afterward. Others said that it was Prince Jing who risked his life to save His Majesty. I didn't expect that the assassination was led by him." Xiao Zimo said with emotion.

"That's right, he came to your wedding banquet that day, and he must have recognized my identity at this time, and that's why he dealt with the Wu family." Wu Bai guessed.

"So that's the case." Xiao Zimo asked, "Then we really don't want to help father-in-law?"

Wu Bai shook his head and said, "No, he owes Wu Bai this."

"Okay!" Xiao Zimo nodded.

After that day, Wu Honglang never came to Xiao's house again, as if he had resigned himself to his fate. Wu Bai also heard that the people in Wu's family were packing their luggage and preparing to go south.

Another half month later, Wu Ran suddenly came to Xiao's residence.

"You haven't left the capital yet?" Wu Bai asked curiously.

Hearing this, Wu Ran was a little annoyed and said, "Are you very proud now?"

"What am I proud of?"

"I'm going to leave the capital completely tomorrow, and go to the small remote county town of Guning, but you can stay in the capital forever, don't you feel proud?" Wu Ran looked at Wu Bai with jealousy.

"If that's what you're talking about, well, then I'm really proud." Wu Bai nodded.

"Hmph! I knew you would be proud, but I won't let you be proud for too long!" Wu Ran left Xiao's house angrily, throwing down these words.

At noon the next day, Wu Bai came to Dali Temple in a carriage. He got off the carriage and took out a food box from the carriage.

Most of the officials of Dali Temple went to Xiao's house to attend the wedding banquet. Soon someone recognized Wu Bai's identity, and they all said hello to Wu Bai. The official of Dali Temple is about to be promoted, and Xiao Zimo made great contributions a few days ago , it is very likely to take over this position and become the head of the entire Dali Temple. When they see Wu Bai now, they will naturally go forward to say hello and make friends.

"Xiao Fulang, are you delivering food to Mr. Xiao?"

"Master Xiao is really blessed, to be able to marry such a virtuous husband like you, I am really envious of others!"

Wu Bai didn't answer, and responded with a silent smile.

When Xiao Zimo saw him coming, surprise and surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Fu Lang, why are you here?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"I'll bring you food." Wu Bai handed him the food box.

"Thank you, Fulang." Xiao Zimo accepted it happily, and then asked, "Have you eaten? Do you want some together?"

Wu Bai shook his head and replied, "No, I've already eaten."

"Okay." Xiao Zimo nodded, and then he opened the food box and found that there were all his favorite dishes in it. He said happily, "I didn't expect Fu Lang to write down all my favorite dishes."

"Well, I also brought you a small bottle of peach blossom wine." Wu Bai pointed to the bottom food box and said.

"Fu Lang even knows that I like to drink peach blossom wine?" Xiao Zimo was full of surprise.

Wu Bai said with a mysterious face: "Yes, you said this when you were dreaming." In fact, it was your favorite drink in the previous life.

"Do I like talking in my sleep?" Xiao Zimo asked doubtfully.

"Occasionally." Wu Bai spread his hands.

"Okay." Xiao Zimo took out the peach blossom wine, poured it into the wine glass, took a sip, and said, "I bought this peach blossom wine at Xianweilou, I remember it's the taste of his house."

"That's right." Wu Bai nodded and said, "The peach blossoms will be in full bloom in two months, and then I will pick some petals and make peach blossom wine for you myself."

"Fu Lang can still make wine?" Xiao Zimo asked in surprise.

"Well, I can teach you." Wu Bai nodded.

Xiao Zimo said happily: "Okay!"

Wu Bai stayed in Dali Temple until the afternoon, until Xiao Zimo went to the Yamen, and then walked out of Dali Temple with him.

Just after leaving Dali Temple, a woman next to her tilted her body and fell straight into Xiao Zimo's arms. Wu Bai hurriedly pulled Xiao Zimo to the side.

The woman fell to the ground with a thud, and it seemed that the fall was not light.

"It hurts!" The woman looked at Xiao Zimo tearfully.

Wu Bai looked down, and suddenly found that the purse on the woman's waist looked familiar, so he knelt down and took off the purse.

The woman quickly stood up from the ground, trying to grab the purse back.

"This is my purse, do you want to rob it?" The woman looked at Xiao Zimo and said, "Master Xiao, this is the Dali Temple. Are you going to let this little brother rob it?"

"I've seen this purse before. It belongs to Wu Ran. Tell me honestly, what's your relationship with him?" Wu Bai asked sharply.

"I don't know Wu Ran, this purse is my own, please return it to me quickly." The woman insisted.

Xiao Zimo naturally believed in Wu Bai, and he threatened, "You'd better tell the truth, this is Dali Temple, if you lie, you will have to be punished."

The woman was frightened, and honestly explained her relationship with Wu Ran. It turned out that Wu Ran paid her to seduce Xiao Zimo. She didn't understand why Wu Ran asked her to do this. It's not a bad thing to say, after all Xiao Zimo is young and promising, and with money to earn, she agreed.

"I have already said, can you return the money to me?" The woman spread her hands.

"This money is evidence and cannot be returned to you." Xiao Zimo refused.

"But……"

"It's nothing but, if you want to sit in Dali Temple, you can do it." Xiao Zimo said with a serious face.

The woman glanced at Dali Temple, gritted her teeth, and fled quickly, not daring to pester her.

Xiao Zimo noticed that Wu Bai's expression was a little strange, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Wu Bai shook his head and said: "I'm fine. Yesterday Wu Ran came to Xiao's mansion. He said that I won't be happy for long. I thought he was just talking harshly. I didn't expect him to come up with such a way to deal with me."

"Don't worry, you are the only one in my life, and his plan will not succeed." Xiao Zimo promised.

"Of course I believe you." Wu Bai looked at him trustingly.

On the carriage to Guning County, Wu Ran was full of expectations that the woman would successfully enter the Xiao Mansion. He couldn't help laughing when he thought of Wu Bai's pain, but he didn't know anything about the capital. You know, after he arrived in Guning County, he couldn't laugh anymore.
