Qing'er came, wearing a scholar's blouse, a silver cord around his waist, and a jade pendant with a red tassel, dressed like a gentleman. But he wore a certain straw hat on his head, and a gauze hanging down to cover his face.
He took a few steps forward and arrived in front of Bai Song. He took off his bamboo hat and threw it away, letting down his long hair like a waterfall. His face was not wearing any makeup, which was completely different from the delicate look he had seen in the past.
He is haggard and appears to be somewhat feminine.
Bai Song frowned when he saw her.
Qing'er also knew that the other party was confused or resentful. Needless to say, Bai Song said that she already bowed her head with guilt. After a long time, she said: "Young Master must have many doubts. Please sit down and have something to eat and calm down for a while."
Calm your mind. Master, tell me all the confusions in your heart. Qing'er will know that you can't stop talking about everything."
Bai Song opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. After hesitation, he finally sat down at the temple table, poured himself a glass of wine and drank first.
Bai Song had complicated thoughts. He had thought about meeting Qing'er for a long time, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know what to say or what to ask after meeting her.
After one glass, another glass was poured, and Qing'er hurriedly stepped forward to pour the wine for Bai Song herself.
Bai Song ate his food without even looking at the glass of wine.
There were several people in the temple who saw Bai Song's attitude and stepped forward to scold him: "You are shameless, aren't you? The Holy Envoy poured the wine himself, you..."
Before she finished speaking, Qing'er glanced coldly: "Everyone, get out!"
"Lord Holy Envoy, there is no one around you to protect you..."
"Get out!" Qing'er's tone increased. Compared with the gentleness towards Bai Song, she was completely different.
Several people in the temple hesitated for a moment, but then left angrily.
Bai Song ate the food in silence, and suddenly sneered: "Oh, it's really that holy envoy."
Qing'er lowered her head again after hearing this. She didn't know how to explain it, so she simply stopped talking.
The two sat across from each other, and Bai Song finally raised the glass of wine. After drinking it, Qing'er immediately filled it up.
"Qing'er knows that it's useless to say anything. I have lied to you, but Qing'er dares to swear to God that Qing'er never thought of harming you from the beginning to the end. This time, the master suffered for Qing'er, and he really couldn't think of the court official.
How could someone so stupid and incompetent think that the young master is a member of the Holy Lotus Sect?"
"Qing'er Qing'er Qing'er!" Bai Song suddenly interrupted and put down his wine glass heavily, "My friend is Mo Jiqing! Not Qing'er!"
In one sentence, Qing'er's conversation that she had just opened was blocked again.
The name Mo Jiqing is fading away, but it is a rare soft memory in Qing'er's heart.
She doesn't want to think about the past, because every time she thinks about it, she feels sad and confused.
Now hearing it from Bai Song's mouth, it seemed as if someone had stabbed the wound that was about to heal.
Qing'er looked down at her nails, was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "Mr. Bai, forget about Mo Jiqing, Mo Jiqing died early this morning... Now there are only Qing'er and the Northern Territory of the Holy Lotus Sect.
Holy Messenger."
After saying that, he poured himself a glass, drank it in one gulp, took a deep breath, and continued: "That's all, after tonight, Qing'er will send the young master back to Jixian, and Qing'er will no longer disturb the young master's life."
"Go back? I'm a fugitive now!"
"..." Qing'er looked a little embarrassed. In front of Mr. Bai, she felt that her mind was not as active as usual. How could she not think of such a simple truth?
"Then... Qing'er will find a happy place for the young master as soon as possible, and let the young master live in seclusion first, and then go and take all the young master's family out of Jixian when he has time."
"I want to join the Holy Lotus Sect!"
"What?!"
Qing'er was so shocked that her mouth opened. Bai Song's words were too sudden, which really surprised Qing'er.
Bai Song put down his chopsticks and looked at Qing'er seriously: "I said, I want to join the Holy Lotus Sect."
"Sir, stop joking."
"You think I'm joking?"
"Why? Okay, sir, why are you doing this?"
"You asked me why? What else do I want to ask you about? Why did you join the Holy Lotus Sect? Why did you become what the people call a witch? Why do you want to be a Qing'er if Mo Jiqing doesn't do it well?"
"I..." Qing'er was speechless. The reason why she joined the Holy Lotus Sect was extraordinary. Even to Mr. Bai, she couldn't reveal it. This poem would bring trouble to Mr. Bai.
Seeing that Qing'er didn't say anything, Bai Song continued to drink a glass of wine and sneered: "Hey, you, a woman, can join, but I, a grown man, can't join? What's the point of this?"
"Joining the Holy Lotus Sect has many implications. It is easy to join now, but it will not be so easy to leave in the future. Moreover, the young master has an upright nature and a righteous heart. This Holy Lotus Sect..."
Bai Song frowned and was very surprised when he heard Qing'er's answer. He quickly interrupted: "Listening to what you said, you also know that the Holy Lotus Sect is not a righteous person, so why are you getting deeper and deeper into it?"
"Young Master is different from Qing'er. Qing'er has compelling reasons."
"I also have a reason why I have to do it."
"What reason?"
"That Shu King Li Zhan, I treated him sincerely, but he wanted to take my life at the lantern festival. The reason why I fell into the river was because I knew his intention and jumped into the river to save my life. I didn't expect to return to Jixian
At home, Li Zhan still refused to let me go. He immediately took me to jail and sent me to the capital to be executed.
Li Zhan knew that I was not a member of the Holy Lotus Sect, but he insisted on questioning me. This person allowed me to be wronged just to serve the emperor. It is difficult for me to avenge such a big hatred, since he insists that I am a member of the Holy Lotus Sect.
man, then I will join the Holy Lotus Sect and show him."
Qing'er was greatly surprised when she heard this: "What the young master said...but...but after all, this is just the anger of the young master. Don't be so reckless!"
"Do you also know who I am? I have always been petty and vindictive. The Zheng family offended me. Not only did I cause trouble in Jixian County, I even went to the grassland to collect evidence. No matter how many times I was on the line between life and death, I still have no regrets.
However, since Li Zhan was unkind to me this time, I will naturally not be righteous to him! I don’t care what the Holy Lotus Sect does, as long as the Holy Lotus Sect is against Li Zhan, I will join."
Qing'er fell into deep thought. She knew Bai Song's experience very well, and she knew that what Bai Song said was absolutely right.
Mr. Bai is indeed a man who spends every penny. If anyone offends him, no matter how small it is, he will keep it in his heart and always think of ways to take revenge.
Now the imperial court uses him as a scapegoat regardless of the reason. This has indeed touched Mr. Bai's inner feelings. He joined the Holy Lotus Sect because of this matter. It would not make sense for others, but for Mr. Bai, it is very reasonable.
Qing'er was silent for a long time, then said goodbye and went outside. She seemed to talk to the people outside for a while, and then returned.
Bai Song was already full, so he stood up and asked: "Qing'er, have you made an agreement with me?"
"Mr. Bai, have you really thought about it?"
"Of course! I, Bai Song, am not someone who looks forward and backward!"
Bai Song was very serious and excitedly walked up to Qing'er and took Qing'er's hand: "Miss Qing'er, don't you want us to see each other day and night? Since we have a common enemy, we can fight for a common goal in the future.
"
Qing'er looked at her hands, her face turned red, it was impossible to say she wasn't moved.
In the past, I felt that if I joined the Holy Lotus Sect, I would draw a clear line with Mr. Bai.
I had thought that when Mr. Bai also volunteered to join the religion, even though she knew that many things in the religion were unethical, Qing'er still had selfish motives in her heart. If Mr. Bai was sincere, and we would try to be together in the future, one day would be another day.
Who cares about the storm in the future?
Thinking of this, Qing'er finally nodded: "If Mr. Bai has made a decision, then Qing'er will welcome it, and Qing'er will do his best to avenge Mr. Bai."
"Very good!"
Bai Song shouted happily and held Qing'er in his arms.
This shout caused several people outside to push the door open, and when they saw the two hugging each other, they were stunned.
Qing'er hurriedly stepped away, straightened her clothes, and coughed lightly.
When Bai Song saw the others, he also restrained himself slightly.
There were seven people standing outside, all of them had cold eyebrows and strange looks. It was obvious at a glance that they were not easy to get along with.
But they seemed extremely respectful in front of Qing'er. Even if they saw the previous scene, they remained silent and pretended not to know.
Qing'er adjusted her mood and her voice became cold and stern: "Listen carefully, from now on, Mr. Bai is my deputy and a member of our Holy Lotus Sect. All personnel in the Northern Territory will listen to Mr. Bai from now on."
The young master’s order!”
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
Someone immediately came out and questioned: "Master Holy Envoy, is this against the rules? Even if you trust this person, he has not passed the entrance test, has not investigated his background, and has not made any achievements, so let everyone
Listen to him..."
"Are you questioning me?" Qing'er glanced at the speaker with a sharp look.
The man lowered his head and shrank: "I don't dare. But if the leader tracks down..."
"I will naturally have an explanation from the leader. You don't have to worry about it! It's not early tonight, so you should rest early. You have to be on the road tomorrow."
"oh."
Several people left angrily, and the person who just spoke still didn't understand.
A tall man came up and patted him on the shoulder: "Hey, why do you care about the Holy Envoy's housework?"
"Housework? Where is the housework?"
"Can't you tell? This pretty boy is clearly the beloved of the Holy Envoy."
"Ah?" The other party immediately became interested.
"Your Majesty the Holy Envoy just wants to keep your sweetheart by your side. Even if the leader smells it, given the great contributions that the Holy Envoy has made, how can the leader not allow it?"
"Does the Holy Envoy still have someone he likes? When I was in Jixian, how many young talents pursued him desperately, but I didn't see the Holy Envoy being tempted at all. Why..."
"You don't care about that much, don't guess what women are thinking."
The voices of discussion outside are getting farther and farther away.
Bai Song and Qing'er were still the only two people left in the temple.
Thinking of what he said before, Bai Song asked: "Qing'er, you have to go on a journey tomorrow? Where are you going?"
Qing'er smiled: "Young Master will know tomorrow."
"Hey!" Bai Song sighed, "Okay."
Looking at Bai Song's tone, no one knew that he was sour.
Qing'er immediately couldn't bear it, thinking that it was not a secret, so she took the initiative to go to Bai Song and whispered softly: "Fifty miles to the south, there is a famous sword villa on the border of Yangzhou. We will go here tomorrow."
