As expected, many jars of wine were delivered to the villa the next day. The wine was not very delicious, but it was even a bit spicy.
But since Lan Yunxiao liked it so much, Bai Chi had it put away.
Not only did he ask General Zhou to deliver it, he also asked Xiao Xunzi to take the silver notes, go out and buy a large amount of wine, and have it delivered directly to the royal palace in the capital.
Which palace?
Of course, it is the palace of the little prince who has not yet been given a title.
As for the fact that two guards were missing from the escort team, the atmosphere in the city was serious for a while afterwards and no one took it seriously at all.
Just as he said at the beginning, after resting for a few days, he took Lan Yunxiao out to play.
Outside the Great Wall is a unique desert scenery. Lan Yunxiao is very curious, but the dry climate soon makes him uncomfortable.
Even so, the group still stayed at the border for nearly three months.
During this period, the city was inspected several times and several spies were caught. There was even a special stronghold and a list of spies who entered the city.
A small-scale war broke out. Bai Chi ignored the obstruction of others, drew his bow and shot an arrow, killing the leader of the enemy with one blow.
While traveling outside the Great Wall, they encountered a group of sand bandits. The bandits flirted with Lan Yunxiao, and the two of them chased him into the bandit's lair and killed them all.
Lan Yunxiao took a fancy to the poisonous scorpions in the desert. Bai Chi left the others and took Lan Yunxiao to stay in the desert for half a month, catching a large number of poisonous scorpions and poisonous snakes.
If Bai Chi hadn't asked Xiao Hei to deliver two notes to them every few days, everyone else would have been scared to death.
It was not until the cold winter was approaching that Bai Chi calculated the time and finally took Lan Yunxiao away from the border.
By this time, the spies had almost been wiped out, and the entire Taichu territory was very clean.
But I have been away for long enough, almost half a year, it’s time to go back.
Just when the group was returning along the same route and about to arrive at Pingyuan County again, news finally came.
The prefect of Pingyuan County secretly stored troops and grain in an attempt to rebel. The evidence was conclusive and his entire family was executed.
Officials and businessmen in Pingyuan County colluded with each other, protected each other, and exploited the people. Dozens of officials and businessmen had their homes raided and were beheaded.
Prince Su colluded with the governor of Pingyuan County and plotted rebellion, and was demoted to a commoner...
When Bai Chi and his companions arrived in Pingyuan County, the new county magistrate had already arrived and various officials had been reassigned to their posts.
Among them was an inconspicuous guard who was with the young prince when he came to Pingyuan County last time.
Everyone then realized that the young prince, who had been a playboy and had accepted bribes, actually had ulterior motives!
Unfortunately, it’s too late to know now.
Bai Chi accepted the gift from the new official with peace of mind, and once again moved into the villa in a grand manner, personally taking charge of Pingyuan County.
Of course, I spent more time playing around with Lan Yunxiao.
It was winter now, and the scenery was very different from the last time they came to Pingyuan County.
The first snow fell before the winter solstice, and the whole earth was covered in silver. Lan Yunxiao was very surprised when he saw snow for the first time.
Seeing this, Bai Chi pulled him into the snow and taught him how to make snowmen and have snowball fights. The two of them acted like real teenagers.
Several days passed like this, until Lan Yunxiao finally lost interest in the snow, and he took him to sit around the fire, make tea, play the piano, and play chess.
Of course, Bai Chi would occasionally take some poisons and research new poisons with Lan Yunxiao.
Even though seeing a doctor and healing wounds were a piece of cake for Lan Yunxiao, he was obviously not interested in them. Apart from Achi, his greatest interest was researching new poisons.
The only frustrating thing is that until now, no one dares to approach the yard where they live, except for the servants who clean and tidy up.
The poisonous insects that can be seen everywhere in the yard are no big deal. They won’t attack people anyway, so you can just ignore them once you get used to them.
But if anyone talks to the little prince for a few more words besides business, especially chatting about small things, this Miao saint will quickly appear no matter where he is.
He suddenly appeared as if teleporting, and then stared at the person who came with cold eyes.
If there is someone who knows what's good for you and just tells you to leave, that would be fine.
If you don't know what's good for you, haha, you'll end up being poisoned, sick, bitten by insects, having hallucinations... and so on.
Although the young prince will quickly have the Holy Son detoxify him after discovering it, the experience was so sour that people really don’t want to experience it a second time!
So now, around Bai Chi and Lan Yunxiao, everyone leaves immediately after finishing their own tasks and doesn't want to stay even for a second longer.
"Look at you, how scared have you made me?"
Bai Chi laughed as he watched Lord Wang leave so quickly, almost running away, as if it was not him who led the troops to suppress the rebellion.
A quarter of an hour ago, Lord Wang came to Bai Chi to report some things, and Lan Yunxiao happened to go to the backyard to see the newly cultivated poisonous insects.
This Lord Wang was the one from the Dali Temple who had been hiding among the guards. He had been busy since he came here this time. Seeing that he looked tired, Bai Chi invited him to have a cup of tea.
They had only finished half of the cup of tea when Lan Yunxiao came back and Lord Wang ran away as if he was escaping for his life.
Lan Yunxiao didn't care at all, and fell on Bai Chi with his body tilted.
This seemed not enough, and the next second she leaned directly into Bai Chi's arms, almost hiding in Bai Chi's cloak.
The hands under the cloak were also unceremoniously wrapped around Bai Chi's waist. He narrowed his eyes and didn't care what others thought.
"Achi is mine, I don't like anyone else."
He declared his ownership without hesitation and never gave anyone the chance to get close to Achi.
This then caused Bai Chi to chuckle indulgently.
The willful Lan Yunxiao is like a little child, so cute.
At least in Bai Chi's eyes, she is really cute.
Both of them are teenagers who are in the period of growth. In more than half a year, both of them have grown a lot taller.
But Lan Yunxiao is still a little taller than Bai Chi.
But that didn't stop him from nestling himself in Bai Chi's arms.
It seems that it was on the night of the welcoming banquet at the border that this habit was formed after Bai Chi held him in his arms after drinking.
She even deliberately leaned on Bai Chi and asked him to carry her back.
Bai Chi really didn't mention the fact that he scared people away. After all, Lan Yunxiao never interfered when talking about serious matters.
"The New Year is coming soon. Let's go back to the Miao village this year. After the New Year, I will take you back to the capital."
Lan Yunxiao had already closed his eyes and nodded gently: "Okay."
