Chapter 273 Bailian's true face, a dark poisonous plan

"Okay, then Feng'er, you will set off with me for the upper city after breakfast."

Chu Zhan nodded.

In fact, not only Chu Feng felt that the plague in Shangcheng was strange, but Chu Zhan also felt a little strange.

Generally speaking, plagues have their origins, such as rats and bats. It can be said that many plagues are caused by animals.

But in the report Tang Hong submitted to the court this time, the source of the plague was not found, which made Chu Zhan feel a little confused.

If the plague has no source, can it be understood that this plague is man-made, and someone deliberately created this plague.

Of course, Chu Zhan hopes that his guess is false. If it is true, then someone is probably plotting against Shangcheng and the Tang Dynasty. In this way, things will become much more complicated.

"Father, I want to go too."

Hearing that Chu Feng was going to go to the upper city with Chu Zhan, Chu Linglong was a little eager to try, and also wanted to go to the upper city.

"Linglong, if you are not allowed to go, you can stay in the king's city and cultivate your relationship with the king."

Chu Zhan mercilessly refused.

Chu Linglong pursed her mouth when she heard the words, and then looked at Tang Yu eagerly, but Tang Yu just ignored her.

Then, Chu Linglong looked at Chu Feng eagerly, and Chu Feng directly picked up a donkey meat bun and threw it to the red-haired "hungry dog" Rhubarb outside, "Rhubarb, this bun is for you to eat!"

"Wang Wang."

The red-haired "hungry dog" Da Huang barked in excitement.

Chu Linglong:? ? ?

At this moment, [-] cao Nima were thrashing past Chu Linglong's heart.

Soon, Chu Zhan and Chu Feng finished their breakfast, and then went to the upper city together in the carriage prepared by the housekeeper, accompanied by some officials from Datang who assisted Chu Zhan in his investigation.

At this time, in an attic not far from Yushifu, a figure was sitting. That person was wearing a black mask, and it was none other than Qianjiao.

When Qianjiao saw that Chu Feng was also getting into the carriage, he immediately paid for the drinks, then called a carriage, and headed to Shangcheng as well.

……

Shangcheng, the city lord's mansion.

lobby.

"Morning, sir."

As soon as Tang Hong entered the front hall, the butler bowed down to say hello.

"Today's breakfast is very rich."

Tang Hong looked at the rice porridge, meat buns, pastries, and some meat dishes on the table, and said with a smile.

Because the plague in the upper city was brought under control, Tang Hong's mood improved a lot.

His brows were no longer wrinkled, and his face was much ruddy.

"I saw that my lord lost a lot of weight because of the constant running around for the plague two days ago, so I specially asked the kitchen to make more."

the butler explained.

"Yes, Not Bad."

Tang Hong nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Housekeeper, what about the white-robed girl? You ask her to come and eat some, so much breakfast, I'm afraid I can't eat it by myself."

Don't forget to dig wells when drinking water.

Tang Hong did not forget to offer the prescription, the woman in white robe who controlled the plague was also the leader of the White Lotus Sect, Bai Lian.

Of course, Tang Hong didn't know Bai Lian's name or her identity. He thought that Bai Lian was a doctor.

"My lord, I'm going to invite that girl."

Just when the butler stepped out of the threshold of the front hall with his left foot, Bai Lian appeared in front of the butler wearing a bamboo hat, "Butler, no need, I'm here."

"Miss, hurry up and invite me inside, I made a lot of breakfast today." The housekeeper laughed.

Bai Lian hummed softly, then came to Tang Hong's side, did not eat breakfast, but asked directly: "My lord, I have something to do yesterday, I left early, I want to ask today, what is the imperial court's request for me?" Any news?"

"Girl, I was just about to tell you that the imperial court had already sent me a message yesterday, saying that there is nothing wrong with letting the girl be the deputy city lord of the upper city, but it needs to be investigated by Chu Yushi."

"After all, only people with clean backgrounds can serve in our Tang Dynasty."

Tang Hong smiled and told Bai Lian the news he got yesterday.

"Your City Lord, you can rest assured that I, Bai Lian, have a clean background and have practiced medicine for generations."

"Bai Lian? The girl's name is Bai Lian? It's a good name."

After hearing Bai Lian's words, Tang Hong said thoughtfully.

"Miss Bailian, can I take the liberty to ask a question?"

"My lord, please tell me."

"Miss Bailian, why are you wearing a bamboo hat?"

Tang Hong put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, swallowed the food in his mouth, and asked curiously.

He had seen many women, but he rarely saw anyone wearing such a wide hat.

"I, Bai Lian, am a weak woman. If I'm wandering outside alone, it's natural to be more mysterious, so that thieves won't get my idea."

Bai Lian sighed and explained.

"I see."

"However, Miss Bailian, if you pass Chu Yushi's investigation, you can't wear a bamboo hat when you serve as the deputy city lord of Shangcheng in the future. In addition to affecting your office work, this image will also make you questioned in the officialdom."

Because the plague was under control, Tang Hong was in a good mood, so he said a few more words.

If it were an ordinary person, Tang Hong would definitely not bother to pay attention to it, but judging by the confidence in Bai Lian's words, it may be a certainty that she will be the deputy city lord of the upper city, so he doesn't mind showing his kindness to make friends with Bai Lian .

"The City Lord reminded me."

Bai Lian pondered for a while, then slowly stretched out her hands and took off the bamboo hat from her head.

Seeing this scene, Tang Hong put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands again and stared at Bai Lian. He wanted to know what Bai Lian looked like.

After three breaths.

When he saw Bai Lian's appearance, he immediately showed a look of disappointment.

This Bailian looks ordinary, and even has a lot of flesh on her face.

He originally thought that Bai Lian was wearing a bamboo hat because of her outstanding looks, and he was curious about how beautiful her face was under the bamboo hat, but it turned out to be an ordinary face.

Hey.

It's better to continue to wear a bamboo hat and maintain a sense of mystery.

Tang Hong whispered in his heart.

In the next half hour, Bai Lian ate some breakfast and then left, arriving at a courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

Because Tang Hong didn't know when Chu Zhan would come to Shangcheng, he let Bai Lian live in the mansion, so that he could accept Chu Zhan's investigation immediately.

Not long after Bai Lian went to the courtyard, the steward of the City Lord's Mansion also came to the courtyard and sent some bedding and things for the woman.

But after delivering these items, the housekeeper did not leave immediately.

"Congratulations, sir, you will be promoted to the deputy city master of the upper city soon."

The butler bowed respectfully towards Bai Lian.

This butler is also a member of the White Lotus Sect!

Bai Lian hummed lightly, and then asked, "Is the matter about my innocence settled?"

"Master Muslim, it has been completed. Half a month ago, when I followed Tang Hong to inspect the officials in the upper city, I successfully added the information of Lord Master."

"My lord, this is your current identity."

"Practicing medicine for generations, parents died of normal old age, and there are no brothers and sisters in the family."

The housekeeper handed over the fake identity to Bai Lian, so as not to reveal his secrets in front of Chu Zhan.

"it is good."

"As long as I become the deputy city lord of the upper city, our White Lotus Sect will be able to join the Demon Sect."

A smoldering look appeared in Bailian's eyes.

Although Bai Lian is a woman, she has been ruthless since she was a child. Later, she learned the method of using poison and controlling Gu. Once, because someone said something bad about her, all [-] members of that person's family were poisoned to death.

Later, Bai Lian created the White Lotus Sect and continued to do evil in secret. By chance, she came into contact with Liu Xi of the Demon Sect and wanted the White Lotus Sect to join the Demon Sect. However, Liu Xi did not directly agree, but put forward conditions , if Bailian can successfully enter the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, let Bailian and the Bailian Sect join the Demon Sect.

"My lord, what kind of censor, Chu Zhan, will come to the city to investigate your background, my lord. Why don't my lord use Gu to directly manipulate Chu Zhan?"

The butler had a sinister look on his face.
