Dean Ning's little husband

Chapter 20

  Bai Po followed Ning Muyan in a daze, the people in Xijin Garden were amazed that Ning Muyan would personally come to rescue him for a young doctor, but he was not surprised.

In the past, when he was obedient in the mansion and was called by his master to criticize and ridicule him in every possible way, he just wanted someone to speak for him.

But the huge Ning Mansion is independent, mother, maid, brother, who will help him speak, thank God if he doesn't follow a joke.

Now that his heart has already become a wall of wind and sand, and he can face it calmly, someone started to protect him.

It was someone who he had never even dared to think of before to come to protect him, and Bai Po felt emotional in his heart, as the world was really in turmoil.

There was a bang: "Oh!"

The person walking in front of him suddenly stopped, and Bai Jian fell straight onto Ning Muyan's back. He yelled and raised his hand to rub his forehead.

Ning Muyan lowered his eyes to look at the man with his head bowed in front of him. He reached out and took away Bai Jian's hand rubbing his forehead, and glanced at his forehead. It didn't hurt, but it turned red from his own rubbing.

Bai Po raised his head and looked at Ning Muyan, a little listless: "What are you doing?"

Ning Muyan gently put down his hand, looking at the absent-minded look, originally he wanted to go back to the garden to comfort him, it can be seen that people are like this, he couldn't help but Said: "You were wronged today."

"I didn't feel wronged, but..." Bai Po said: "Why are you here?"

"It was San Leng who came to Bao'an Hall and told me that you were taken away by people from Xijin Garden Let's go."

Bai Po pursed his lips: "It made San Leng worry."

"He's quite loyal."

Ning Muyan's brows moved slightly, he was never worried: "If I wasn't reliable, how could I put you in the yard."

Bai Po was helpless, but you would put gold on yourself.

"Do you really believe that I didn't take those things?"

Ning Muyan sighed slightly: "Let's not mention Yupei, you can't even read two words, can you take calligraphy and painting?

" I don't know whether to praise him or laugh at him.

"If you like, I'll take two and hang them in Tianmendong."

"That's unnecessary. I read them every day in the study and in the yard, and my eyes are almost callused."

Ning Muyan sighed helplessly, then turned again Kuan Zong said: "Okay."

Seeing the warm smile of the person in front of him, Bai Yu seemed to be blooming in the wind, and felt a little suffocated. He hurriedly looked away, and walked to the front with his head buried: "Go back.

" The day before and after returning to the Mu Garden, Ning Muyan did not return to his own courtyard, but instead followed Bai Ke to Tianmendong, saying that he was asking for tea.

Bai Po didn't refuse to let him go, after all, the entire Damu Garden was his residence, and he was just a dependent.

San Leng was circling anxiously in the yard, he was relieved to see Bai Ke came back safely: "Master, are you okay?"

Bai Po shook his head.

San Leng was about to ask what happened again, but seeing that Ning Muyan also came to the courtyard, he hurried to pour tea without talking too much.

Ning Muyan went into the room and sat down in front of the case, he stretched out his hand, and Qing Mo gave Ning Muyan all the things he took when he came back.

"Return to the original owner."

Bai Po looked at the jade pendant that Ning Muyan was holding in his hand, and felt that it was a bit unlucky, it was unlucky before, and it is the same now, it would make him unlucky, so he doesn't want it anymore.

"Take it, I will clean up the atmosphere in the garden. In the future, if someone from Xijin Garden asks you to go, they won't let you be summoned without my permission. Such a thing will never happen again.

" After a pause, as if relieved, he stretched out his hand and took the jade pendant back: "The calligraphy and painting are not mine."

Ning Muyan didn't say much, and handed the calligraphy and painting to Qing Mo: "Put it back in the study."

"Yes. "

Qing Mo retreated, and there were only two people left in the room. Ning Muyan looked at the jade pendant in Bai Po's hand, with an imperceptible smile hidden in the corner of his mouth: "Didn't you say that you didn't bring the jade pendant at home?"

Bai Po Coughing dryly : "At first I thought I didn't bring it, but when I came here, I found that I packed it in my bag."

San Leng brought the tea, and Ning Muyan didn't say anything more, took a sip, and there was a smile at the end of his eyes.

Bai Po looked at him drinking tea, and said: "I'm a little tired, I want to sleep for a while."

Ning Muyan glanced at the sky outside, it was the time when the sun was scorching hot: "Alright, today is you Xiu Mu , I went out for a long time in the morning, so I should have a good rest."

"Yeah."

Ning Muyan came to the door, and suddenly turned around and said, "Bai Po, don't take today's matter to heart."

Bai Po didn't answer, just looked at Seeing that Ning Muyan came out of Tianmendong, he let out a breath, turned around and went to the bedroom.

Once he entered the Ning Mansion, he knew it would not be smooth sailing, but with someone protecting him, he felt very different after all.

He folded his clothes and lay down on the bed, looking at the piece of white jade with red string and tassels in his hand, the warm and cool jade body made him sigh softly, his thoughts suddenly pulled away.

.........

The light in the dungeon is not very good. After entering the gate, you have to walk down the lengthy stairs. It's okay in summer. In autumn and winter, there is no light all year round, and the stone steps are always wet Braving a chill.

Carrying the food box, Bai Ke went down the stairs carefully, and then had to go through several cells one by one.

There are torches lit on the stone walls in the dungeon, but they are not very bright. From time to time, a fat, round mouse jumps over the stone slabs, and occasionally the family members who came to visit the prisoner exclaim in fright.

Seeing that he remained calm, the guard who led the way said: "You are quite courageous."

Bai Ke is not afraid of rats, this thing is very common in the villages, during famine years, some people go around to catch rats and eat meat.

However, he was a little afraid of passing through the passage of the cell. The cell made of iron pillars seemed to have a gloomy air in the slight firelight. Go to the cell door and reach out to grab passers-by.

The disheveled and filthy prisoner has been in such a place for a long time, and his spirit is probably not normal. He pounces on him like a wild beast, and he will come up and bite if he catches someone.

The jailer swung his stick and refused to let go. He didn't stop until his head was bleeding and he fell unconscious.

For this reason, Bai Po was very careful every time he passed the cells, and walked through these cells with trepidation, only to see Ning Muyan in a very dark dungeon inside.

Hearing the movement, the prisoner opened his eyes and saw that it was him, so he stood up and walked to the edge of the cell.

During the three to five months in the dungeon, Ning Muyan's legs, feet and knees suffered from the cold, and he was no longer as flexible as before, but it was a little difficult for him to walk a short distance.

Bai Po squatted down hurriedly, first took out some food from the food box, and then took out the bone warming plaster he had prepared. The time for the family members to visit the prisoner was limited, so Bai Po took advantage of Ning Muyan's time to eat and quickly rolled up He put the plaster on the bottom of his trousers.

"The imperial court has issued an order." "Example, has an order been issued?" Bai Po paused

his hands in a hurry, and quickly asked, "What did your Majesty say?" Ning

Muyan shook his head lightly: "Exile."

Yiliang: "Exile...you can go out after exile!"

Ning Muyan didn't say yes or no, but just ate the food in the bowl numbly.

"Master, no matter what, fortunately it's not decapitation! If you live, there is hope."

Ning Muyan looked down at the plaster on his knee, but after applying it for a while, his cold and stiff legs felt a warmth , Slowly spread from the tendons all over the body.

He raised his head and looked at the person in front of him: "I am exiled to Lingnan, Bai Ke, do you know where Lingnan is?"

"I, I only heard that it is far away."

"This place is thousands of miles away from Beijing. It will take a year and a half, and the criminals will be exiled without chariots and horses, only servants oppress them. Even if they are lucky enough to get to the place of exile, the terrain in south of the Five Ridges is remote and barren, with poor mountains and bad waters, and frequent disasters, how many days will they have to live?"

Bai Po pursed his lips: "But the young master has endured such a miserable life in the prison, so why should he be afraid of the pain of exile?"

Ning Muyan suddenly reached out to touch Bai Po's hair: "I am here, And what else can scare me. It's just..."

"You are my concubine. If you are in trouble in the mansion, you don't need to be exiled. You can disperse on your own."

Ning Muyan said in a low voice: "You go back and enter my study, go three steps to the left with the desk, the floor tiles can be pried Open, dig three feet deep and there is a box. There are some of my savings in it, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life."

"Leave the capital with your things and never come back. Go back to Fucheng or go to a safe place and find someone who can take care of you." Your people, set up a family and buy a property, and live an ordinary life."

Bai Jian's eyes suddenly turned red, and even though the hand beside him had never touched his skin, he could still feel the cold air coming out of his hand.

"There are not many people left in the mansion. If I..."

Ning Muyan inadvertently withdrew his hand and lowered his eyes coldly: "Let's go." Just as Bai Ke was

about to say something more, he came over with his chin raised: "It's time, let's go." Let's go."

He picked up the food box, looked at the man standing in the dark prison, and stared at him deeply.

Back at the mansion, Bai Po went to the study and found something according to what Ning Muyan said. It was a box no more than three inches long and two inches wide. He wiped away the sand and opened the box. There were not many things inside, but it was real. property.

A few private title deeds from Fucheng, two heavy gold bars, and a white jade pendant with tassels...

Bai Po suddenly clenched the jade pendant tightly in his hand, his chest was tight, and he couldn't help but open his mouth to breathe.

"Is your son tired?"

Seeing San Leng who came in, Bai Po put the jade pendant under the pillow and got up quickly: "No, I just want to lie on the bed for a while."

San Leng took the snacks brought by the cook Put it on the table: "Master must be tired, but what happened today?"

Thanks to San Leng today, Bai Po didn't hide it from him, and explained the matter simply: "You ask, and I was just surprised in my heart. I saw Qiaorou in the garden on weekdays. She is very kind and kind. I don't know when I offended her." She actually did that."

San Leng felt cold sweat on his back when he heard what happened today, but fortunately he invited the young master over, otherwise, wouldn't Bai Po be wronged.

He said: "Sister Qiaorou was originally sent by Madam to be used by Eldest Young Master, because Madam is a maid at her side, and Young Master also cared about Madam's face when he came to Muyuan, so he let Sister Qiaorou continue to be the eldest maid. things."

Bai Po knew that people in the mansion who were not used by him would generally not be reused or trusted, and San Leng said this to tell him that Qiao Rou was originally in the Mu Garden and was not considered the Eldest Young Master. kind.

"But he is a dignified servant girl after all, why do he still do such dirty things."

San Leng said in a low voice, "Actually, she was sent here, one side is to do things, and the other side is to be the young master's messenger After serving the young master, she can be raised as an aunt in the future."

"But everyone in the mansion knows about the eldest young master's temperament, and they don't like Yingying Yanyan, and they have never let anyone serve them over the years. But many People are still dreaming, who told us that the young master is not only rich, but also born like a banished fairy."

Bai Po coughed dryly: "So Qiao Rou has never been called by the young master to serve?"

San Leng nodded: "Xu It was she who saw that the young master was trusted by the young master, and was able to go in and out of the study every day to serve her, so she felt resentful."

Bai Po suddenly said, "No wonder, it wasn't enough for her to take my jade pendant, and she added something to frame me for stealing, and then To file a complaint in front of the real master is to think that I will be a thorn in the side."

If he took the jade pendant alone, the master would immediately feel that he and Ning Muyan had other friendships, and then it would be self-defeating, jealous in his heart and unwilling to do so, he simply added something and falsely accused it as a theft, using his background to make people think It is reasonable to be greedy for money.

However, who would have thought that Ning Muyan would come to intervene.

San Leng said: "My lord, don't take it to heart. Since the young master is in charge, she will definitely not be able to return to the garden to serve in the future."

It's not just that she can't return to the garden. He was sent to work in Zhuangzi outside the city, and he was not allowed to return to the mansion.
