Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 152 Pretending to be decisive
"Why does the queen mother suspect Yun Shangshu?"

"I'm not doubting him, I'm... doubting myself."

Cui Yun comforted Sheng Shaoqing and said, "Even if Yun Shangshu didn't come to Chen Liu, but changed to another place, the situation may not be much better than today."

"My lord Wang Wang still cares about Yun Shangshu's face after all. If it is someone else, it may not be the case."

"Can………"

"Then Cui Yun has the guts to ask the queen mother, will the queen mother shelve the strategy of equalizing the land because of today's events?"

Sheng Shaoqing frowned, "Of course it won't work, what you say is water that was spilled, how can you take it back?!"

"That's it." Cui Yun pretended to be relaxed and said, "Since the Queen Mother is determined to do so, no matter what happens or what kind of obstacles you encounter, you must not waver at all."

Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "Never waver!"

"Since Chen Liu's water has been muddied, I might as well sprinkle a handful of ashes."

"What is the meaning of this, Queen Mother?"

"I have already agreed to Prime Minister Ji's previous request, otherwise let him start with Chen Liu."

Cui Yun got into the car and was still thinking about what the Queen Mother was referring to, but Sheng Shaoqing kept opening the window and looking back along the way.

Lin Jin thought that Sheng Shaoqing was concerned about Guo Song and Wang Shan. After all, these two people are the two most important witnesses in this case, so he rode close to the Queen Mother's car and replied, "Wang Shan and Guo Song have arranged for someone to Escort back to Chenliu, the Queen Mother need not worry."

Sheng Shaoqing nodded absently, "Guo Song..."

Before Sheng Shaoqing finished speaking, a sound of horseshoes passed by the convoy and stopped in front of Sheng Shaoqing's car.

A high-spirited female voice came from the front, "Madam Yuan! My concubine Bai Qing has something to ask, please get off the car and talk to Madam Yuan!"

Sheng Shaoqing sighed, what he wanted to wait for didn't come, but what he didn't expect came running instead.

Lin Jin was also a little annoyed when he saw Bai Qing approaching aggressively. Ever since the queen mother stayed in their inn, the shopkeeper was very rude. Later, the waiter of their inn joined forces with Wang Yuan to plot against the queen mother. How dare the shopkeeper chasing? !
"I'm talking about the shopkeeper. You are so unruly. We only stayed in your inn for one night, and the money was given to you. Why are you so stubborn?"

Bai Qing ignored Lin Jin, and just repeated the request loudly.

Seeing the strange eyes from around gradually gathering, Lin Jin was about to sarcasm and drive people away again, Sheng Shaoqing raised his finger lightly, stopped Lin Jin's voice, and replied "OK."

Accompanied by Cui Yun, Sheng Shaoqing got out of the car, looked at Bai Qing who rushed over, the broken hair on his forehead was already wet with sweat, he handed out his handkerchief and said, "Wipe it off."

"Thank you." Bai Qing didn't hesitate, took Sheng Shaoqing's veil and wiped off the sweat on his forehead, and then got down to business, "I'm here because of..."

"Guo Song?"

Bai Qing nodded, "Mrs. Yuan's family has a great career, so there is no shortage of such a servant around her. I'm here to think about it."

"You want to take him back?"

Bai Qing nodded his head with difficulty, but his gaze had already drifted to the driver behind Sheng Shaoqing. He didn't know where this bastard Guo Song was?

Sheng Shaoqing laughed and said, "But why did I hear that shopkeeper Bai said that he would no longer care about Guo Song's affairs?"

Bai Qing's face suddenly became ugly, "I"

Bai Qing lowered his head, frowned after a while, raised his head and said to Sheng Shaoqing, "My concubine grew up with Guo Song's childhood sweetheart, how can I just watch him!"

"What? According to what you mean, my wife has become a dragon's pond and a tiger's den here?"

But looking at Bai Qing's worried expression, it can be seen that Guo Song is really tight-lipped, and even Bai Qing was concealed by him.

After all, it was still early, and Sheng Shaoqing wanted to wait for that person to come, so he teased Bai Qing and said, "Why is Shopkeeper Bai silent?"

Bai Qing said awkwardly, "He can't go to the capital anyway!"

Bai Qing changed her pleading expression again and said, "Mrs. Yuan, it was my concubine's fault at the inn. It was my concubine's poor hospitality. I can return all the money to you. Can you...can you."

Sheng Shaoqing said firmly, "No."

In the wilderness, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, Sheng Shaoqing's clothes fluttered in the wind, Bai Qing suddenly knelt down and said, "Madam Yuan, I, Bai Qing, have never begged anyone in my life, but I beg you!"

Bai Qing's eyes were filled with tears, she raised her head and said to Sheng Shaoqing's surprised eyes, "Please! Give him back to me!"

Cui Yun watched furiously from the sidelines, "It's not Madam who forcibly snatched him away, it was because he wanted to follow Madam from the beginning, and Madam took him back only out of mercy, otherwise, do you think Madam would be willing to take such an unknown man?" people?!"

Cui Yun thought that this would be able to repel Bai Qing, but Bai Qing said with red eyes, "Yesterday it was obviously your people who came to look for him again. He packed up his package this morning and disappeared. If you don't come, he . . . he! He won't go!"

Cui Yun saw that this man was so confused that he didn't even know how many good things the people around him had done without telling him.

Just as Cui Yun was about to point it out, Sheng Shaoqing suddenly said, "You have to give me a reason, right?"

"You begged me to let him go, what's the reason? Otherwise, everyone will beg me, and I can agree?"

Bai Qing hesitated for a long time before saying, "He is from Yingyang Yingyang Guo's family."

"If you bring him back, I'm afraid you'll...cause trouble!"

Sheng Shaoqing turned around to see Cui Yun's suddenly changed expression, "What do you mean?"

Bai Qing was stunned for a moment, "Madam, don't you know?"

Cui Yun whispered in Sheng Shaoqing's ear, "Cui Hao's disaster back then, all the families involved were the disaster of extermination. The Yingyang Guo family had nothing to do with this matter, but then they came out from somewhere to say Cui Hao Hao had a correspondence with the head of the Guo clan at that time before, and Emperor Jing was furious, so...so."

"So I decreed that the adult men of the Guo family were exiled, and their wives and daughters were not officials and slaves. At that time, Guo Congjia, the head of the Guo family, was a close minister of the emperor. This kind of punishment is not light..."

Sheng Shaoqing looked straight at Bai Qing and said, "But Mrs. Ben is not afraid."

Bai Qing didn't expect Sheng Shaoqing to be so stubborn, and suddenly became a little angry, "He used to live well here, if it wasn't for you coming, he would have other thoughts, otherwise, why would he insist on doing this?!"

"What's more, if he returns to the capital with you, once someone recognizes his identity, it will be a catastrophe!"

Sheng Shaoqing laughed and said, "If you don't tell me, who will know his identity? Who will know that my little handyman is a descendant of Yingyang Guo's family?"

"I!"

Sheng Shaoqing raised his eyebrows, "Huh?"

"Bai Qing, do you really not know what he has done?"

Bai Qing was stunned when he heard the words, with a strange feeling in his heart, "Ma'am, what do you mean?"

Sheng Shaoqing sighed, "Forget it, it's fine if you don't know, knowing everything will only hurt you."

"In short, Mrs. Ben promises you that she will return Guo Song to you completely in the future. Is this finally over?"

Before Bai Qing got excited, he immediately asked, "When is the next one?"

"Well, Mrs. Ben can't say well."

"No!" Bai Qing suddenly became alert, "Ma'am, what are you going to do?"

Bai Qing suddenly realized that if Guo Song was just an insignificant pawn, why would Mrs. Yuan care so much about Guo Song's going or staying?

I also remembered yesterday that I heard that this lady came to Qingshiban Township to look for relatives, then
Could it be that Mrs. Yuan is also a yang yang person? !

Sheng Shaoqing laughed and said, "What are you so nervous about, I don't do anything, I just borrow Guo Song's help."

Bai Qing said with a trembling voice, "Are you also a member of the Guo family?"

Sheng Shaoqing shook his head, "Just rest assured, Guo Song will come back in a few days."

Bai Qing smiled wryly and shook his head, "Once he goes to the capital, he won't come back. Otherwise, why did my concubine try so hard to stop him?"

"It turned out that he never forgot."

A line of tears rolled down Bai Qing's cheeks, "Forget it, concubine. I am doing myself well for what I have done today. I will meet him in the end of the world, but I am just a stranger."

"I don't want to embarrass Mrs. Yuan anymore, but can Mrs. Yuan allow my concubine to see him again? It's a farewell."

When Sheng Shaoqing heard this request, he subconsciously agreed, but Cui Yun pulled his sleeves and said in a low voice, "Guo Song hasn't woken up yet."

Seeing the master and servant whispering in front of him, Bai Qing felt even worse, "What...why didn't you wake up?!"

Sheng Shaoqing asked awkwardly, "Didn't you hear anything strange when you went out today?"

Bai Qing shook his head, "I only heard that someone was making trouble in the township government office. Later, Guo Song left without saying goodbye, and my concubine just focused on finding someone."

Sheng Shaoqing patted Bai Qing, wondering if he should tell Bai Qing that it was Guo Song who caused the disturbance in the township government today, but he felt that the matter became more and more complicated, and when he didn't know what to do, Lin Jin was already "caring" He brought Guo Song out.

"The forest is exhausted!"

"Ma'am! What are you doing with them?! Just let them meet."

Sheng Shaoqing raised his forehead and said, "You really are."

What a talent!
"Guo Song! You! What?"

Bai Qing immediately rushed up to help Lin Jin support the weak Guo Song.

Not long after Guo Song woke up, he felt the carriage stopped suddenly, and the vicious guard next to the Queen Mother suddenly walked in again, and without saying anything, he helped him up and left.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw the white shadow next to the front carriage.

She still came after her.

"How did you come?"

Guo Song didn't answer Bai Qing's question, but just stared at Bai Qing coldly and asked why she came.

But he himself knew better than she why she came here, but he couldn't give her hope.

The despair after giving hope is even more desperate.A person like him who lives in the dark is never worthy of standing with the sun.

Bai Qing was stunned, "I'll come and see you, why did you become like this?"

Guo Song gently took Bai Qing's hand off his arm, "Shopkeeper, I made it clear to you the day before yesterday that I don't want to stay in your shop anymore, I've already found another place, and you're welcome Don't stop me anymore."

Bai Qing said anxiously, "I know what you want to do, but...but you can't just follow her back like this! Don't you know how dangerous the capital is?! Your identity"

Bai Qing lowered her voice, "If your identity is discovered."

Guo Song shook his head indifferently, "Life is a matter of life and death, and I should have died a long time ago."

"you!"

Guo Song also knew that if he couldn't explain clearly today, Bai Qing would definitely not let it go, so he said cruelly, "Bai Qing, you and I grew up together, and I know your heart."

It was the first time Bai Qing heard Guo Song's positive response to him, but he didn't expect it to be in such a situation.

"But me. You also know my identity. I am destined not to give you what you want. This month, this month in the inn, is the happiest time of my life."

"Dreams always wake up, and I am destined to go too"

Guo Song looked into Bai Qing's eyes, she must understand what he wanted to do.

"I thought I thought you had forgotten, I thought you could just be a small running hall in the inn."

Guo Song raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Bai Qing's face, and tried to steady his trembling voice, "I said, you are the best shopkeeper in the world. You will also have many better waiters, handymen and servants. "

it doesn't have to be mine
Guo Song didn't say the words, but he had already recited them countless times in his heart.

Sheng Shaoqing saw that the two of them were talking more and more sadly, and he didn't understand why they just separated for a few days and acted like they were parting.

Bai Qing and Guo Song didn't answer, but Sheng Shaoqing's statement was already acquiesced in their eyes.

Bai Qing suddenly turned around and bowed to Sheng Shaoqing, "My concubine's wish has been fulfilled, thank you madam."

Before Sheng Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, Bai Qing continued, "Since Guo Song is going to the capital, the concubine will also go."

Sheng Shaoqing:? ? ? ? ?

Guo Song struggled to come forward, "Bai Qing!"

Bai Qing turned around and smiled brightly at Guo Song, "Why, only you can go to this capital, can't I?!"

"If there is any work in Madam's house that I can do best, if not, I have some savings in Qingshiban Township these years, and I can continue to open a shop in the capital."

Sheng Shaoqing helped her forehead, why are one or two coming? !
Sheng Shaoqing gave Guo Song a look: You can deal with your family members yourself.

"Bai Qing! Don't mess around! You are doing well in Chenliu, what are you doing in the capital?"

Bai Qing choked, "Then what are you going to do?"

"Me!" Guo Song gritted his teeth, "Don't you know what I'm going to do?!"

"I, Baiqing, have arms and legs, why can I only stay in Chenliu?!"

"Since you insist on going, then I will follow you!"

Sheng Shaoqing felt dizzy again, "You can do whatever you want, but my house doesn't lack any maids anymore, if you want to go to the capital, go."

Bai Qing got on the horse, and turned back like a gust of wind to tidy up, not caring how much the weak Guo Song jumped behind him.

Lin Jin glanced at Guo Song sympathetically, he was lucky to be beaten with [-] sticks to save his life, but with such a thing on the table, shopkeeper Bai really loved Guo Song deeply, but seeing that the goddess is interested, Xiang Wang Wumeng's appearance, these two are really
