Chapter 619 The so-called "favor"

"It's almost time to go back..." Bai Ling wiped the sweat from his brow, "Let's stop here today, Master Wei."

Wei Ying squatted on the high eaves not far from Berlin as usual, and nodded.

Bo Ling stood in the night wind for a while, then bent down to open the door leading to the stairs at the bottom.

"Bai Ling." Wei Ying said suddenly.

Bo Ling turned his head and saw Wei Ying standing up on the corner of the eaves.

"Master, do you have anything else to say?"

Wei Ying was silent for a moment, his eyelids drooped, "Forget it, I didn't think it through myself, you can go."

Bo Ling smiled, and his figure quickly disappeared on the roof.

Wei Ying heard the little girl's footsteps slowly going away, and suddenly recalled the time a few months ago when he suddenly thought of taking Bo Ling as his apprentice.

At that time, he asked Bai Ling to kill Mr. Hengyuan, "let Mr. Hengyuan die in the way of Mr. Hengyuan, just like the Lin family back then."

But Berlin declined at the time.

Even so, Wei Ying didn't feel pity about it - because he didn't bet on Berlin in the first place.And this kind of roundabout way of fighting and inviting the king into the urn is not Wei Ying's usual style.

As a shadow guard, he didn't like to torture his prey too much before dying... though he did wonder if Burling had a way of doing that.

But there is one thing that still impresses Wei Ying deeply.He still remembers that before and after Lin Jieyu's death, Bo Ling fell into a kind of anxiety and depression.

Wei Ying couldn't understand this kind of immature burden.

A person's bottom line can only be broken once... and in this matter, Bo Ling has indeed become more and more proficient.

……

"So where have you been tonight?" Yuan Zhen was holding the tea, his eyes were always on the tea leaves floating in the cup.

"I couldn't sleep tonight, so I went to practice dancing near Anzhi Tinglan." Bai Ling replied calmly.

What this statement sounds like is actually not lying at all.

Yuan Zhen raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Ling. She was dripping with sweat, and her forehead and neck were covered with sweat-wet hair. It seemed that she had really exercised her muscles and bones.

"Where is the vicinity of Anzhi Tinglan?" Yuan Zhen frowned, "Why do those turtle claws say that they have searched everywhere but haven't seen you?"

"Then we have to ask them how they found them." Bai Ling sighed, "If Eunuch doesn't believe me, you can ask the turtle claws who searched for Lanzhi Tinglan to confront me."

Yuan Zhen laughed.

"No need, anyway, I don't believe that you will go to dance somewhere tonight because you can't sleep." Yuan Zhen said softly, "Tell me, how do you plan to repay the favor you owe me?"

"Just tell me what you have to do," Bai Ling said with a smile, "I will do my best when I don't owe favors."

Yuan Zhen smiled, "One size fits all, if I force you to do some things, Qiu Shi still doesn't know how to miss me."

Bai Ling was slightly taken aback.

Yuan Zhen said again, "That Li Sheng didn't speak many truths, but he was right in one sentence." Yuan Zhen put down his cup, looked at Bo Ling, "Bo Siyao, you have a good heart, you are the best. In the past few years, during the holidays, you have been running to the imperial mausoleum to give Qiu Shi some daily household items, without your help, he would have suffered a lot in the past few years."

"It's nothing... Eunuch Huang took good care of me when I was in the palace." Bai Ling said softly, "I mainly went to see his old man, and when I saw that Eunuch Qiu was short of things, I took them there."

"Look," Yuan Zhen said with a smile, "Is this the way to repay kindness, Bai Siyao, don't be modest."

Thinking that Yuan Zhen didn't say anything good so easily, and suddenly cut straight to the point like today, he just praised him, which made Bo Ling feel a little turbulent, and couldn't figure out what he wanted to do.

She smiled, "Eunuch Yuan, tell me what I can do for you."

"The thing is like this," Yuan Zhen said softly, "more than half a month ago, the King of Shangluo County wrote a note to the emperor, and I just received the emperor's secret letter in the middle of the night."

Bai Ling's eyes brightened slightly - Chen Xin listened to her.

Yuan Zhen looked at Bai Ling's expression, "Bai Siyao has already guessed what is said in the notebook?"

"...It's for the child prostitutes in the former Huzi shop, right?" Bai Ling replied softly.

Yuan Zhen nodded, he stood up, and walked slowly in the room.

"Speaking of the fact that Jiaofang is in Baihuaya, it's really not easy for the palace to come forward. There are too many intricate things inside. It is unrealistic to hand over all the flower kilns in Baihuaya to the palace to investigate and deal with. And there are some things that you can’t find out if you look them up on the surface, unless you uproot the entire Baihuaya and stroke its beards one by one. You can pull out the radish and bring out the mud. Child prostitutes are much dirtier, but there are too many of them.

"If you really want to do this, it will cause the bosses and bustards of these flower kilns to panic, and the business in this place will be ruined. This year, Mr. Sun Ge and the others are still counting on getting more money from the flower kiln here. Send out a batch of armaments...

"Bai Siyao has also seen what I have done in Lanzihao these days," Yuan Zhen said softly, "This time I came to Lanzihao to find out the way and learned some details. It's a big deal, the emperor trusts me to hand over the matter to me, it's a big deal for the family and the country, you can't live up to it."

Berlin was silent, which is really the familiar "big picture".

"Let's talk about the note I received in the middle of the night." Yuan Zhen stopped, "What the emperor means is that the matter of child prostitutes must be cleared up, and he will return to Beijing soon, and then he will personally come to inquire about this matter. After thinking about it, I feel that there is only one way.”

"What does the father-in-law want to do?"

"To untie the bell, you have to tie the bell... Everyone is old acquaintances, so Bai Siyao can take the job by himself." Yuan Zhen said softly, "You tell the emperor yourself, this matter is done now No, at least it has to be postponed until after the spring of next year.”

Burling laughed.

From the moment she talked about the cabinet, she understood that this was not a matter of returning favors at all.

Even if there is no Li Sheng tonight, Yuan Zhen must come to talk to her about it.

...But did Yuan Zhen really come up with this idea of ​​harmony?
Not like.

"What's Bai Siyao thinking?" Yuan Zhen asked.

"I can take care of the work." Bo Ling said softly, "But what to write in the booklet is up to me."

Yuan Zhen was very happy, and said "Okay—" in a straight voice, and then said softly, "But the doctor should not forget the original intention of this matter. You must know what direction this book is about. .”

"Don't worry, I understand what Eunuch means," Bai Ling said softly, "I won't delay the business in Baihuaya."

"What does Si Yao want to do?"

"...I have to think about it." Bo Ling replied softly, "I will give my father-in-law an answer tomorrow."
