Chapter 31 The Evil Guard and the Good Maid
At dusk, Xu Buling arrived outside the Baima Village in the snow field with a carriage. You can see a series of buildings from afar. Four lanterns under the archway sway in the cold wind. The lights are like day among the flying eaves and blue tiles. From time to time, noble people are riding in cars and horses.
Zhu Manzhi sat next to him and looked up at the distance: "Mr. Xu, there is an imperial guard around him. Could it be that Baimazhuang is already alert?"
Xu Buling pulled his hat and his voice was dull: "It's all the same."
Zhu Manzhi seemed to understand but not understand. He nodded slightly, then looked at the curtain again, and knocked his hand on the car:
"Young Master Xiao, I'm here."
“…Um…yeah…oh~”
A dazed sound rang out, and a "thump" sound came from the carriage, which sounded like it fell off the soft couch.
Zhu Manzhi smiled "sneer" and quickly covered her mouth.
A little bit, Xiao Ting, who was sleepy, exposed his head from the carriage, raised his eyes to Zhuangzi in the distance, and his eyes lit up:
"Oh~ This place is pretty, no wonder those playboys often talk about it. How did you find this place? If it's fun, I'll treat you tonight..."
Xu Buling turned his head and glanced: "I have a private matter today. After you go in, you can play with you. No matter what happens, don't reveal my identity."
"Okay, okay, don't cause trouble and get me implicated."
Xiao Ting sat back in disappointment and began to persuade him with great thought:
"No, don't always be as serious as a hypocrite. You know that your brain has been ineffective since childhood, and you feel inferior when you are together with talented men and beautiful women. You have to see it. The identity of Prince Su is here, and you can go there to eat, drink and have fun. They feel good if you fart. They dare to say that you are not bad..."
When Zhu Manzhi heard these words, her expression was very different and she wanted to laugh but didn't dare.
Xu Buling frowned and insisted on beating Xiao Ting to death with his temper. But it would be useful to keep Xiao Ting today, so he could only pretend that he had not heard of this "persuasion".
The carriage arrived at the entrance of Baimazhuang, and the manager who was waiting under the archway came up to him. After looking at the wooden sign of the word "Xiao" hanging on the carriage, his face suddenly changed. He stood respectfully under the carriage and waited quietly.
Xu Buling jumped out of the carriage, covered his face tightly with his hat, and raised his hand to lift the curtain of the car.
In the carriage, Xiao Ting, whose temperament has changed completely, bent down slowly and walked out with a folding fan in his hand.
Xiao Ting was born in a family family, and his appearance was naturally good. His demeanor and behavior were also cultivated since childhood. He was considered to be serious.
The manager looked at him and was immediately frightened and trepidated: "Oh~ It turns out it's Mr. Xiao, the little one is indifferent to welcome him..." As he said that, he turned around and waved: "Hurry up, ask Mr. Chou to come out to welcome the guests, and the young master Xiao Xiang is here."
Xiao Ting was not surprised by this. He stood on the carriage and brewed for a moment. He looked like he wanted to make a poem, but unfortunately he couldn't spit out a word after holding it in for a long time, and then coughed and got off the carriage.
Within a moment, a young man came out of the village, wearing gorgeous clothes and smiling warmly. He was Li Tianlu's cousin, Li Tianyu, who was usually responsible for the industry of Baimazhuang.
As the legitimate son of Xiao clan in Huainan, Li Tianlu had to bow to greet him here, not to mention a child like Li Tianyu. At this time, Li Tianyu smiled and stepped forward and raised his hand and bowed:
"Tianyu has met Mr. Xiao, and his brother invited Mr. Xiao many times. Today, Mr. Xiao is willing to admire his face, which really makes the humble house shine..."
Xiao Ting put the folding fan behind his back, and he was as if he was inspecting the leader, and he consciously walked in front:
"My father has always been polite to the people. It happened that it was fine today. I came to see the harvest of the crops..."
“…”
Zhu Manzhi, who was walking side by side with Xu Buling, widened his eyes when he heard this and looked at the heavy snow in the sky.
Looking at the harvest in the middle of winter?
If you can see this, it would be a hell.
Xu Buling was not surprised. After all, with Xiao Ting's social status of "four bodies are not diligent and five grains are not divided", there is still nothing to see in autumn.
When Li Tianyu and the manager heard this, they did not show any embarrassment on their faces. They let the flow and then answered:
"Mr. Xiao is really interested. He loves people as much as his son at a young age. In the future, my Dayue people will be blessed..."
"Over award... Well, Zhuangzi has cultivated well. Everyone says General Li is a Confucian general. Now what he says is true..."
“Where…”
...
While people were carrying people in the flower sedan chair and flattering each other, Li Tianyu led Xiao Ting to the inside of the village.
Xu Buling led the carriage, and Zhu Manzhi looked like a little girl, so he was naturally treated as a coachman and a maid. Halfway through, the manager behind him politely pointed to the place where the carriage was parked in the village and signaled the servant to go there to wait.
Xu Buling naturally took Zhu Manzhi with him and left the team.
Zhu Manzhi followed Xu Buling toward the Mashes and turned his head to look at Xiao Ting who was gradually moving away: "Mr. Xu, I just saw that the person named Li winked at the manager. It seemed something was wrong. Will Mr. Xiao be in danger?"
Xu Buling tied the horse to the horse stake and shook his head and smiled: "If the Li family dares to kill the legitimate son of the Xiao family in Huainan, the whole family will have to be buried with him, which is very safe."
Zhu Manzhi nodded. He was born in the city and naturally did not understand the affairs of aristocratic families. He asked curiously:
"I often hear people say 'Xiao Lu, Cui, King and Li', how powerful is the Xiao family?"
Xu Buling thought for a while: "The Great Qi occupied the Central Plains for three hundred years, with more than 200 prime ministers and more than 30 surnames Xiao. The remaining half were divided by the other four families. It was similar to our dynasty. How powerful do you think it is?"
"The Xiao family is so powerful, why did they give birth to such a stupid son?"
"...Well... stupid people have a blessing..."
Xu Buling didn't talk much about the tool man, and looked around with a long knife on his back. There were many horses and frames parked near the horse house. The coachman and guards were sitting around the brazier and chatting. They often met the situation. The guards of the Li family patrolled the knife and looked around, and they looked at this side from time to time.
Xu Buling naturally had no intention of being a coachman. After thinking about it for a while, he pulled Zhu Manzhi's wrist and walked towards the corner behind the horse house.
Zhu Manzhi was looking at something wrong from left to left, suddenly his wrist was pulled, his face turned red, and his expression was a little bit distorted:
"Xu... Mr. Xu...what are you doing?"
"Don't talk."
Xu Buling responded with a smile, pulled Zhu Manzhi into the corridor between the wall and the horse house. After confirming that outsiders could not see this, he picked up his chin:
"Turn around and lie on the wall."
Zhu Manzhi was stunned, turned around in confusion, and lay obediently on the wall.
Then Zhu Manzhi heard the rustling sound, and turned around in confusion, but saw Prince Xu actually untied his belt.
"ah--"
Zhu Manzhi finally understood, and she was angry and ashamed. She was about to speak when she was pressed on the yard wall.
At this moment, a guard with a knife walked out of the corridor and frowned and looked at it.
Xu Buling pressed Zhu Manzhi against the wall, and one hand was unbuttoning his belt. Seeing someone coming, he stopped and said angrily: "What are you looking at?"
He looks like a villain guard and a good maid having an affair.
Zhu Manzhi also reacted and hurriedly covered her face and looked shy.
The guard with a knife looked a little embarrassed. He touched his nose and left again as if he hadn't seen anything.
Xu Buling then let go of his hand, took off his hat and covered his face with a black scarf:
"Let's go in and take a look."
Zhu Manzhi's face was still red, and she followed Xu Buling toward Zhuangzi and muttered in a low voice:
"Young Master Xu, you... have a lot of bad ideas, you can come up with this method..."
"Occured."
"Don't offend... Prince Xu is very skillful in catching the girl..."
“…”
