Old Black's hands were itching.
Sisi wanted to watch a play.
Gao Pengcheng was still reeling from the shock of letting a wolf into the house.
The couriers were afraid that Ma Dabiao would kill them with a single blow.
Madam Yun and Master Yun have not yet recovered from the shock of being treated like VIPs in the past and now being treated like bandits.
In the end, it was Old Master Yun who stepped forward.
Grandpa Yun stood up and walked toward Ma Dabiao, saying, "Innkeeper Ma, don't you recognize me? The last time I stayed at your inn, you even made me a plate of venison and said that you were the one who hunted that deer."
Ma Dabiao calmed down a bit. He would sometimes store some game to tell passing officials that he had hunted it. The higher the official's rank, the higher the grade of the game. Since he had served this person venison, that person must be a high-ranking official.
Ma Dabiao stopped and turned around to take a closer look at Old Master Yun. "Lord Yun?!"
Grandpa Yun nodded.
"How come you..."
Ma Dabiao stopped asking after only three words. Many people knew that Old Master Yun had stopped the Emperor from making the Seventh Prince the Crown Prince.
Although Ma Dabiao was just a post station chief, those who stayed at his place were all officials. What official wouldn't be concerned about the selection of an heir? He would naturally find out over time. "Please sit, please sit."
"I'm sorry to have troubled you."
“It’s no trouble. It’s just…” Ma Dabiao looked at Lao Hei and Sisi…
Old Hei's hand was still on Sisi's head.
Sisi still only showed her little head.
Ma Dabiao quickly looked away.
Although Ma Dabiao saw that Sisi's eyes were open this time, the impression that Lao Hei and Sisi had left on Ma Dabiao was too deep, so deep that Ma Dabiao had psychological trauma.
As soon as Ma Dabiao saw the two of them, he was reminded of the terrifying feeling he had just experienced...
Ma Dabiao wanted to separate Lao Hei and Sisi but didn't dare to say so. He pinned his hopes on Old Master Yun. "Lord Yun, who are that strongman and that little girl?"
“Just call me Old Man Yun. I’m not an adult anymore. That strong man is a bodyguard from the Divine Wind Escort Agency. He saw that we were old and the girl was young, so he gave us a ride. That little girl is my great-granddaughter.”
"So it's your great-granddaughter. I thought that little girl was that brave man's daughter. Grandfather, why isn't your great-granddaughter with her mother? Don't children always stay with their mothers?"
Grandpa Yun understood what Ma Dabiao meant.
But……
Is it really necessary to be this scared?
His great-granddaughter is so adorable!
“My great-granddaughter loves to cling to me. Little Six, come here and say hello to your Uncle Ma. Your Uncle Ma even treated Great-Grandpa to venison.”
Sisi jumped off the chair and walked towards Ma Dabiao.
Ma Dabiao always felt that Sisi wasn't walking alone, but rather her head was walking.
Ma Dabiao tried to run away. "Um? No need, no need, you should go find your mother. It's better for a child to stay with his mother; she's very attentive."
All right.
Sisi turned around and walked towards Fengchan.
Even on someone else's turf, you should still give them some face.
Ma Dabiao breathed a sigh of relief. He'd finally separated the two men; otherwise, it would have looked like a bandit carrying a child's head. "Grandpa, please sit down. Who's the head of the escort team?"
Gao Pengcheng stood up dejectedly. "I..." He thought he'd gotten a windfall, but it turned out to be a trap!
"Come with me, I'll take care of the paperwork for you."
The formalities were completed a long time ago. You just want to ask me about the origins of these bandits, right? I want to know too. "Okay."
Ma Dabiao took Gao Pengcheng to his room.
As soon as he entered the room, Ma Dabiao looked at Gao Pengcheng and asked, "Who are those people? Why do they look so much like bandits? Especially the one sitting with you."
Gao Pengcheng also felt that Lao Hei and his men were not good people. Especially Lao Hei. He was simply a bandit incarnate!
However, he was so terrified by the crowd that he didn't realize what was happening. He just wanted to get the Yun family away as quickly as possible!
Gao Pengcheng looked at Ma Dabiao and said insincerely, "They are bodyguards. I've dealt with them before. As you know, bodyguards often fight with people to protect their goods, and they inevitably develop a bit of a bandit-like nature after a lot of fighting."
Since that little girl dared to admit it, she wasn't afraid of him telling others.
If he told others, he might have already kicked the bucket before Old Master Yun was even killed by his enemies.
“Chief, they really are镖师 (bodyguards/escorts). I have dealt with them before. They are willing to give us a ride partly because we have a friendship, and partly because they admire Old Master Yun’s character. As you know, Old Master Yun has a lot of prestige among the people.”
Damn it!
You get tricked by someone and then have to cover for them!
He had never felt so frustrated in all his years as a guard!
Damn it!
After Gao Pengcheng's repeated assurances, Ma Dabiao believed him. However,
"Don't let that镖头 (bodyguard/escort) sit with that little girl." It's terrifying! "If you let them sit together, other inns will think you're bandits."
"Okay. Is there anything else? If not, I'll be going now."
"It's gone."
After Gao Pengcheng left, Ma Dabiao wanted to have a drink to calm his nerves. But as soon as he picked up his glass, he poured the wine onto the ground.
Ma Dabiao felt that the reason he had mistaken Sisi for a head was because he had been drinking.
Ma Dabiao had someone summon the courier who had just delivered the message to him.
As soon as the courier entered, Ma Dabiao kicked him. "I've treated you well all this time, and you didn't even tell me those people outside were from the Yun family. If you had told me, I wouldn't have been so humiliated!"
