Chapter 239 I have to find that little sister first
Yun Tiankuo looked obviously surprised, and his deep blue eyes looked at Bai Yu'an in confusion, obviously not understanding what he was trying to do.
"City Lord Yun," Bai Yu'an continued, "perhaps I should have confessed my identity to you on the first day I moved into the City Lord's Mansion. I was not considerate enough on this point."
Yun Tiankuo pondered for a moment, then quickly said with a smile, "Second Young Master, you're joking. In other words, I'm just a useless city lord and have no right to let you do this."
"City Lord Yun, why are you being so modest?" Bai Yu'an's bad premonition grew stronger. "Since I've chosen to confront the City Lord, I naturally hope that the City Lord will treat me with sincerity."
He knew that Yun Tiankuo was definitely not as incompetent as he seemed now, and there might be something behind this person.
"Second Young Master, you are joking again. What happened today was indeed my negligence. If you still have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me." Yun Tiankuo still had a smiling face. He lowered his posture, which was tantamount to rejecting Bai Yu'an's further approach.
Bai Yu'an didn't want to go back just like that. He thought for a moment and continued, "I know that the Bai family army's attack on Dongyi City has caused irreversible damage to the City Lord's Mansion and the people in the city. However, as the City Lord, you should understand that my father and the Bai family army are all for the Great Jin behind them."
"This war was initiated by the Northern Barbarians. It was you... or more strictly speaking, it was the Northern Barbarians' royal family who forced us to leave our homes and come here."
Bai Yu'an looked directly at Yun Tiankuo. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he continued, "However, there are some things I still need to clear the name of the Bai Family Army. Your daughter's case was definitely not the Bai Family Army's doing, and the guys who are now staying in the city and doing evil are not the Bai Family Army either. The reason I met with the City Lord today is because I hope to join hands with the City Lord to truly begin rebuilding Dongyi City."
After hearing the last part, Yun Tiankuo looked obviously surprised. He never expected that Bai Yu'an had this idea.
However, he couldn't help but wonder, was Bai Yu'an going to rebuild Dongyi City? Or was he going to take back the power over Dongyi City?
"City Lord Yun!" Bai Yu'an wanted to say something.
"That's enough, Second Young Master. There's something you should know better than me," Yun Tiankuo quickly made up his mind. He couldn't trust Bai Yu'an so easily. "Lord Wang and I have been working on the reconstruction of Dongyi City. If you, Second Young Master, also want to get involved, I think it would be best if you go and talk to Lord Wang in person."
Bai Yu'an frowned, "City Lord Yun doesn't believe me?"
"Second Young Master, what are you talking about? After all, I am an official of the Northern Barbarians. It would be better for you to solve the affairs of the Great Jin yourselves."
Yun Tiankuo looked at Bai Yu'an with a smile, implying that if Bai Yu'an could deal with Wang Yuanshu, then he would be willing to consider joining forces, but now, he had no reason to believe him.
Bai Yu'an thought about it for a moment and quickly agreed, "Okay, City Lord Yun, I understand what you mean, but you should also understand that my decision to deal with Wang Yuanshu is not about a life. Please give me some time, City Lord Yun."
Yun Tiankuo smiled and said, "What a coincidence. What I have the most right now is time."
Bai Yu'an took Li Suining back.
On the way, the little girl lay drowsily on Bai Yu'an's shoulder and asked in a humming voice, "Second brother, is the city lord willing to cooperate with us?"
"..." Bai Yu'an thought for a moment before softly answering, "I guess he's willing, but he needs us to show some sincerity."
"Sincerity?" Little Dumpling didn't quite understand. He turned his head and continued to ask, "What is sincerity?"
"It's nothing. Let my second brother take care of these things. You should go to sleep." Bai Yu'an smiled and shook his head.
"Okay." Little Tuanzi's voice gradually became quieter. "I'll be responsible for finding Sixth Brother. Well, if I want to find Sixth Brother, I have to find that little sister first..."
Li Suining finally couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep completely.
After returning to his residence, Qingyun learned the result of the showdown and suggested to kill Wang Yuanshu immediately.
"No." Bai Yu'an still felt it was not right. "If we kill one Wang Yuanshu now, there will be another one. No one knows my identity except Wang Yuanshu. So if he dies, I can't become the general of the soldiers in this city. So we can't kill him rashly."
"What should I do then?" Qingyun couldn't think of a solution. In Feiyun Sect, he was responsible for following Xiao Wu's arrangements.
"Let me think about it." Bai Yu'an couldn't think of a particularly good solution at this time. In the past four years, he had concentrated on being a military doctor and had tried to stay away from these intrigues.
"Okay, go to sleep first and talk about it tomorrow." He nodded at Qingyun.
Bai Yu'an hardly slept that night.
The next day, as soon as the sun rose, Xiaotuanzi ran out of the yard and saw Yun Tiankuo feeding the fish again.
"Uncle City Lord, good morning!" She happily stepped forward to greet him, and then curiously asked, "Uncle City Lord, what time do you come here every day?"
She went to bed early last night and deliberately got up a while earlier today. She thought that as a disciple, she should come early to wait for Yun Tiankuo, but she didn't expect that Yun Tiankuo would arrive first.
Yun Tiankuo curled his lips but didn't answer. In fact, he also came early today.
"Are you ready?" Yun Tiankuo asked in a deep voice, "What are you going to learn today?"
Li Suining made up his mind. "I want to learn. Hello, I'm Li Suining. Who are you? Why did you arrest him? Will you kill him? Can you let him go?"
Yun Tiankuo's eyes gradually widened. The words this girl was thinking about... made him think more.
"Xiao Suining, who are you going to tell these things to?"
The little girl said seriously, "A little sister captured my sixth brother. I want him back."
Yun Tiankuo understood and didn't find it strange. Instead, he asked, "So, she knows your sixth brother's identity?"
"Well." Little Dumpling asked anxiously, "Uncle City Lord, can you teach me these words?"
"Of course you can, but..." Yun Tiankuo said sympathetically, "You might not be able to learn so much, especially long sentences, which are difficult to learn. You should start with the basic words first."
"It's okay, I want to try it." The little dumpling was full of energy.
"Alright." Yun Tiankuo shook his head helplessly, "But as promised, I only have half an hour to teach you, and then I have to go get busy."
"Okay! Thank you, Uncle City Lord." The little dumpling looked eager to try.
Yun Tiankuo laughed in his heart. This child... was really like Ru Ru in some ways. If possible, he would be willing to teach her for a whole day, but obviously not. He still had a lot of things to do.
