The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 393 White Snake, Xiaoqing is Here

Wild ducks are about 100 steps away from the shore.

Such a precise shooting skill, if placed in the hands of a general, would not be surprising, but this is just a boy of about seven years old, such a performance is shocking enough.

"Marshal Han is my master."

"This is the Hexi Jianma presented by Marshal Han. I'm willing to sell it, but do you dare to buy it?"

Bai Gui reined in his horse, looked down at the rich businessman from a high position, and asked.

If he said this directly just now, it would only make people think it was a boy's joke, what is the identity of Marshal Han, how could he have an extra apprentice for no reason.Even if Bai Gui could explain clearly, it would be a waste of words.

Now he shoots the wild duck in the lake with one arrow.

Saying this again is enough to prove it.

In addition..., since he has already planned to overthrow Zhao Song and re-establish the mountains and rivers, then shooting arrows at this time to become famous is also a means.

The road is taken step by step.

If Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, had not been the head of the pavilion in Surabaya and had sufficient prestige in Fengpei, he might not have been able to gather so many prisoners who were escorted when he went to Mount Mangdang.

"Dashuai Han's apprentice..."

The crowd was amazed.

The rich businessman was startled suddenly, he was shaking like a sieve, sweating like rain, bowed his head and said: "Don't dare, Your Excellency is Marshal Han's favorite disciple, this is Marshal Han's favorite horse, I dare not take what others like."

Don't look at Han Shizhong who has now been released from military power and is living on the edge of the West Lake for the elderly.But even an unemployed official is a mountain that cannot be far away for a merchant.

Easily crush him to death!
Offending a high official will result in the destruction of the family.

Seeing this, Bai Gui didn't pay much attention to it.

He glanced at the crowd around the audience, and the crowd immediately parted a wide road.

Bai Gui left on horseback.

It's just that he didn't expect it.

out of the crowd.

There was a boy with a pale and pale face, hesitating.

I don't know whether to catch up or stop there.

"cousin……"

"My cousin followed this man, so it's a good relationship."

Lu You sighed.

After he learned that the Tang family had betrothed his cousin Tang Wan to Bai Gui, he felt sorry.According to reason, he shouldn't come to Bai Gui because of his feelings and reasons, but... he must meet his future cousin.

Unexpectedly, I saw this scene.

He originally planned to go forward to "rescue" Bai Gui, after all he was considered an "acquaintance".

But I didn't expect...,
Bai Gui easily resolved such troubles by himself.

He still didn't dare to question his own mother, but Bai Gui rode a horse and shot wild squirrels, scolded bad guys, and reckless youthful things, so he couldn't help admiring him.

Ordinary people of Bai Gui's age would have been frightened and cried when they met so many people gathered together with evil intentions, how could they have such a demeanor.

"That's it, that's it..."

"Niang was already dissatisfied with my cousin, and it's a done deal. No matter how hard I think about it, it won't help."

Thinking of Bai Gui's bravery, Lu You shuddered subconsciously and thought to himself.

He felt that even if he was a few years older than Bai Gui, in a real fight, he probably wouldn't be Bai Gui's one-shot enemy.

……

Qinghe Street is not far from West Lake.

After Bai Gui left the West Lake, he led the horse and walked slowly.

Horseback riding is prohibited in the city.

However, when he reached the entrance of Qinghe Street, he ran into Tang Wan who was sitting on the bullock cart, opened the curtains, and was searching left and right.

Because there were no horses in the Song Dynasty, dignitaries and dignitaries traveled in bullock carts.Of course, it is not an ordinary ox cart, but a relatively high-end carved cart.

"Bai Lang..."

When Tang Wan saw Bai Gui coming with the horse, her pink cheeks glowed, and she shouted this in a timid and soft voice.

Just like in "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", after Wang Yuyan fell in love with Duan Yu, she affectionately called Duan Yu Duan Lang.But now Bai Gui is Tang Wan's fiancé, and it is customary to address her fiancé with her husband's family name plus the word Lang.

"Miss Tang."

Bai Gui nodded and replied.

(In the Song Dynasty, young women were generally called Niangzi, and those who were not married were called Xiaoniangzi. The previous mistakes and omissions have been corrected.)
"I don't know why Miss Tang came here... why?"

he asked.

He still knows a little about the neighbors near Qinghe Street, and there are no relatives of Tang Wan.And Tang Wan happened to come here, if he said that it had nothing to do with him, he would not believe it.

"Is such that……"

"I heard from the servants in the mansion that my cousin went to look for you, and asked my maid to inquire about your whereabouts. I am already your lover, so I came to Bai Lang's house to show my heart. But I haven't seen Bai Lang, my concubine's health is not good enough to enter her husband's house."

Logan said frankly.

Pinghui, also known as engaged wife, refers to a wife who has been engaged to show her marriage.

Hearing this, Bai Gui glanced at Logan in surprise.

The purpose of Lu You's coming to him is self-evident.He cut off Lu You's bullshit, and it was normal for Lu You to come to him.And Tang Wan, as Lu You's cousin, is not inseparable, but this decisiveness did make him somewhat unexpected.

But after thinking about it for a while, he understood.

The Tang family is also an aristocratic family, bound by family etiquette.Now Tang Wan is his bride-to-be, so it seems that it is not an accident, but it is inevitable.Lu You may still have some affection for Tang Wan, but Tang Wan's ability to agree to the marriage contract shows that he has no affection for Lu You at this moment.

"Since Miss Tang is here."

"Just come home with me..."

Bai Gui pondered for a moment and said.

Tang Wan had been waiting in Qinghe Street for so long, so it was reasonable to let Tang Wan in.Besides, now that he is engaged to Logan, he can't be treated as a stranger.

"Ah."

"Alright."

Tang Wan's voice was like a mosquito, she blushed and tapped her head lightly, and got out of the carved cart under the service of her maid.

Then she followed Bai Gui silently and walked into Bai's Cloth Manor.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was six years later.

In the early spring of the 12th year in Shaoxing, Yue Fei was unjustly killed by Zhao Gou on trumped-up charges.Yue Fei and Han Shizhong are good friends, although Bai Gui wanted to help, but Yue Fei had no choice but to secretly rescue Yue Yun with Taoism and sent him to Qiongzhou.

The next year, Bai Gui won the martial arts examination and was awarded the champion of martial arts by Zhao Gou.

In the next few years, because Bai Gui was young and unable to take charge, he only recruited Cheng Zhonglang, a ninth rank.

This day is Ching Ming Festival.

Bai Gui got up early and bought paper horses, candles, prayer flags, stacks of money, etc., and prepared to go to the Fuxing Temple on the top of Yuhuang Mountain to burn incense and remember his ancestors.

Originally, his family believed in Buddhism. In the past, he used to go to Jinshan Temple to burn incense and commemorate his ancestors. However, under his suggestion, he converted to Taoism and relocated the ancestral plaque to the Fuxing Temple on Yuhuangding.

For most people, it doesn't matter whether they believe in Buddhism or not, it's just a means of remembrance.It is a common practice to offer ancestral tablets in Taoist temples or Buddhist temples. It can bless the peace of the family and the ancestors enjoy continuous blessings.

However, when worshiping ancestors in the temple, a certain amount of sesame oil money must be offered every year.

Yuhuangding is located between West Lake and Qiantang River.

Bai Gui passed the Xining Bridge, Gushan Road, and the Temple of the Four Sages, and after paying respects to Lin Hejing's tomb, he arrived at the ferry and was ready to board a boat.

Unexpectedly, clouds grow in the northwest and fog locks in the southeast.

A light rain began to fall from the sky.

It rained incessantly.

"The breath of Taoism..."

Bai Gui has already digested Lu Zu's golden elixir at this moment, and the elixir has been transformed into nine ranks, and he is only one step away from reaching the realm of the earth fairy.

Ordinary weather and weather are not the same as clouds and rain brought about by Taoism.

With a quick look, he can see the flaws.

"Grandpa, take me to Yongjinmen."

Bai Gui walked to the ferry and said to the boatman.

The boatman is old, wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and the rain is dripping outside.

"Is it from Officer Bai?"

The grandfather on the ferry recognized the celebrity in Lin'an City at a glance, and smiled.

Han Shizhong's Han Mansion is by the West Lake, and Bai Gui often comes to the West Lake, coming and going again and again, and there are very few people who make a living in the entire West Lake who do not recognize Bai Gui as a high-ranking official.

When the boat docked, Bai Gui lightly jumped forward and stood firmly on the bow of the boat.

He was carrying paper horses and other things, ready to get into the cabin to shelter from the rain.

"Wait a minute..."

"Eunuch, give us a ride."

As soon as the boatman reached the surface of the water less than thirty paces away, he heard someone shouting from the bank.

This voice is clear and crisp, like an oriole.

Both the boatman and Bai Gui followed the sound and looked towards the shore, only to see a little lady wearing a bun, wearing a white silk shirt, followed by a servant girl, wearing green clothes, wearing a bun with two horns, the bun hanging down. With two big red beards, he was struggling to carry a package in his hand.

"Mr. Bai, what do you see?"

The boatman turned around and asked Bai Gui.

The boat had just left the shore not long ago, and it would not take much effort to return it, but he could make some money by taking it.If it was someone else, he would never ask, so he went ashore by himself, but the person in front of him was an official, with official status, he dared not bully him.

"It hit them both."

"My Bai family has always accumulated virtue and done good deeds."

Bai Gui smiled.

This is Ching Ming Festival, the gates of ghosts are wide open, and all kinds of ghosts and monsters have come out.With his discerning eyes, he could tell the identities of the two people on the shore at a glance.

However, different from the storybooks he had read in the past, the white lady was not dressed as a widow at this time, or just a pretty lady.

This is very easy to distinguish.

Married women will wear their hair after marriage, while unmarried women will not wear it.

The horse bun is the dress of unmarried girls.

The boat docked, and the white lady and Xiaoqing got into the cabin.

The two sat down.

The white lady glanced around frequently, looked at Bai Gui, her vermilion lips parted slightly, revealing two rows of white teeth, she got up and bowed, "Thank you, the official, for taking our two sisters, this is the pastry made by our sisters, and the official ate it." Bar."

"It can be regarded as our gratitude to the officials for their kindness."

She opened the package, and besides the clothes, there was also a lacquered wooden food box, which contained sweet-scented osmanthus cakes.

"It's a trivial matter."

"You two ladies don't need to thank you."

Bai Gui waved his hands, refusing to eat dim sum.

He could see that there was nothing unusual about this dim sum, it was just a common thing, but he was not willing to stumble on this point.

"I don't know who the official's name is?"

"Where do you live?"

The white lady looked at Bai Gui with sparkling eyes.

At this time, Bai Gui was wearing a black lacquer turban and a blue-collar Taoist robe. He was dressed as a simple rich man, but anyone who saw his high-spirited spirit would think that this person was not simple.

"My surname is Bai and my name is Fugui. I live in Bai's Cloth House on Qinghe Street."

Bai Gui replied smoothly, without showing timidity.
