Supporting actress Becomes the Heroine - C48
Baili Xuanrui was already seated inside the carriage.
Lou Zigui pulled open the curtain and sat down. She didn’t put on airs, and immediately found a comfortable seat for herself after sizing up the carriage.
However, this was also very good!
Thus, she did not know much about the identity of the woman.
Seeing her puzzled expression, Baili Xuanrui knew that she was not really clear about the case and was very kind, “Southern Dai Family is a scholar, her daughter Dai Ruqing, all those years ago she was known for her talent, being able to write poems at the age of three and playing the zither at the age of five, although they did not manage to become officials, but they are still considered to be very proud of themselves, just that you have been to the Fourth Book Hall before, and that is what Dai Ruqing’s father is in charge of.”
“Oh, Principal!” she said.
“What?” he asked softly, not having heard the word before.
She shook her head and did not explain any further. In this era, the Four Books Temple was not part of the imperial government, so they were not officials. However, it was not easy to become the ‘principal’ of a academy that was valued highly by the imperial government.
“Speaking of which, this Old Master Dai can be considered to have some ability.”
“The fourth prince recommended him himself, do you think he has no ability?” he said.
“Fourth Prince?” She was stunned. This actually had to do with the Fourth Prince.
“The fourth prince has always valued people with knowledge.” Baili Xuanrui finally explained to her.
The Fourth Prince appearing in the relationship between characters in this case was somehow strange. However, it could only be as the Prince had said, that the Fourth Prince valued talented people more than him. If she followed the wrong route, it would be easy for her to slip away, so she temporarily put this Fourth Prince aside and continued to study Dai Ruqing.
“Oh, I see! But Ninth Master, this Dai Ruqing is really so powerful, she can compose a poem at the age of three? Isn’t this too exaggerated? I don’t believe it, unless she’s also transmigrated! ”
No matter how powerful a divine ability is at the age of three, it shouldn’t be this powerful, right? She almost recited a poem, so she had to compose it herself …
The focus of Baili Xuanrui’s attention was clearly not on the same level as the one she wanted to express.
“What is teleportation?”
“Eh …” She paused.
His eyes were shining.
She choked.
What are you looking at? It’s just a written word. It really makes me uncomfortable to have such a good written word. She giggled, “I don’t know. Did I say that word already?”
Anyway, it wasn’t the first time she acted dumb in front of him.
Coincidentally, the horse carriage stopped, and the conversation between the two people ended here.
Lou Zigui worriedly asked Baili Xuanrui: “What excuse do you use to reopen the case?”
“Who said I was going to look it up again?” Baili Xuanrui said as he opened the curtain and went out.
Lou Zigui had almost lost his temper from her repeated actions, so she followed him out.
Baili Xuanrui who was the first to get off the horse carriage stood still, he regained his senses, raised his head and extended his hand out.
His actions were so natural and unrestrained that it seemed as if his entire person was shining.
If he was not Ninth Imperial Uncle, or a supporting actor in this book, Lou Zigui’s heart would definitely be racing.
But now, she had to be careful not to be caught as a fish that didn’t even have a bone left to eat.
“Eh, Your Royal Highness, have you forgotten? I am a member of the famous martial arts family, how can I be so weak like the other young misses? Look!” Following her words, she jumped off the carriage without a hitch, patted her clothes, and smiled innocently at him.
As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling person. Although she did not give face to this lord, seeing that she was so ‘naive’, he would not say much about her.
As expected, when he saw the somewhat embarrassed hand in the air, he only smiled and then retracted his hand.
“Robbery!” A voice suddenly rang out.
They all looked over at the same time.
On the other side, a flustered woman was shouting at the top of her lungs, while the maids beside her were panicking.
A robbery in broad daylight was too ostentatious.
Just as Baili Xuanrui was about to order people to chase them down, he felt someone flash past him.
When he looked again, it was Lou Zigui.
He frowned and followed without a word.
“Police, don’t run!” Lou Zigui quickly caught up to her.
The bandit did not know that his guts were so great.
Lou Zigui couldn’t compare to these martial arts experts, but if she couldn’t take down such a small thief, she would become a police officer.
When more and more people were paying attention to her, she had already successfully suppressed them.
When Baili Xuanrui followed his, he saw her groping around for something, it was the same as when she was drunk.
Seeing that there were no handcuffs on her, Lou Zigui cursed under her breath, “Get up! Get up! ”
A lot of people rushed over.
Baili Xuanrui’s dark face darkened as he sized her up. Seeing that she was fine, he slightly relaxed and stood to the side without interfering.
“I’m from the yamen. What happened?” A man came over.
Lou Zigui handed the robber over to him and told him about it.
“Then don’t worry, young lady. I’ll take him to the yamen to handle this matter.”
Furthermore, she saw Baili Xuanrui instructing a servant on what to do with the yamen runner. From that servant’s expression, she could guess that Baili Xuanrui definitely knew the identity of the other party, so she did not need to think too much about the future.
Baili Xuanrui walked to her side, “It seems that you don’t like to meddle in other people’s business.”
Lou Zigui ruffled her hair and thought to herself, “Mm, a professional habit!”
She was also vexed at herself for meddling in such matters.
“Class habits?” He had heard a weird noun.
Lou Zigui realized that she was getting wrong, so she quickly returned to her original spot with the silver bag.
The lady was still waiting anxiously.
“Well, this lady, here it is. “See if there’s anything missing.” She did not want to talk to Baili Xuanrui.
Talking to him, she would reveal more and more.
The man checked the bag and heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, young lady. This silver is outside of my body, it’s gone, but there are a few charms I just asked for, these are very important things, please don’t leave them out.”
“…” Talisman? She really …
Even if she was speechless, she couldn’t say anything.
However, he didn’t expect that doing good deeds would result in a good reward.
After the woman finished checking the bag, she smiled and warmly asked, “Lady, thank you so much. If you don’t mind, come over to my house and have a cup of tea.”
Lou Zigui was about to refuse when the woman pointed at the manor behind her. “Anyway, it’s right in front of our house.”
“Dai Family?” She paused, “You are someone from the Dai Family?”
“Is that so?” The woman was also puzzled by her shocked expression.
Then, it just happened to happen.
This woman was none other than the second wife of the Dai Family, the Jiang Clan.
The two of them were brought to the Second Madam’s courtyard.
This Second Madam seemed to really value those talismans and really wanted to be good to the both of them. He served pastries and tea, so he took good care of her.
“You two are?” The Jiang Clan asked the two of them.
Just as Lou Zigui was about to reveal her identity, she told Baili Xuanrui to quickly ask about the case.
In the end, when Baili Xuanrui first spoke, he made up a big story. He casually made up a surname and then said: “My wife and I are here to pay our respects to Old Master Dai.”
“Hmm? My master? My master is still in the academy. ” The Jiang Clan replied.
She didn’t realize that Lou Zigui’s expression looked as if she had eaten something but couldn’t spit it out when she heard ‘husband and wife’.
The Jiang Clan had no doubts about this at all, praising the two of them for being so compatible.
When she heard that the two of them were here to ask about the matter of the kids attending school, she laughed out loud, “I can see that you two really love each other a lot, but according to your ages, this child should still be young. Our master’s private school is for those who want to take the exam.”
The way he said it and the way he said it was, he seemed to be on good terms with them.
Second Madam’s praise did not make things easy for Lou Zigui.
She was such a good girl and this guy didn’t even have a girl, how could she have a child all of a sudden! It wasn’t her fault!
Staring at someone who had eaten her tofu!
The other party, however, had a warm smile on his face.
She didn’t say anything. She wanted to see how he was going to clean up. It didn’t matter at all. How was he going to get back to the case?
However, without her thinking, Baili Xuanrui had actually turned around, “Dai Family is indeed worthy of being called the best of the best, the children that are taught are all talented and outstanding.”
The reason he said this was because the Second Madam was actually asking for talismans for her son. Not only the safety talisman, but also the high school talisman.
Therefore, although the older generation didn’t want to be officials, these newcomers still wanted to go to high school.
Second Madam Gu beamed, because in the conversation, she mentioned that Baili Xuanrui had connections amongst the officials.
So, as they spoke, they continued to talk about the dead Dai Ruqing.
Ever since the ancient times, gossip really did come from gossiping about this sort of backhouse. The Jiang family carefully said, “Ai, don’t mention her. This old woman doesn’t allow us to talk about Qing Er.”
“Hmm? “Why?” Lou Xinyue did not understand.
Being killed wasn’t like doing something wrong, so why couldn’t he mention it?
“I don’t know about that.”
Baili Xuanrui said, “I have someone in the Six Fans Gate, and they haven’t caught the culprit yet, you guys really cannot afford to! We should reestablish the case so that we can pressure the government and capture the person to explain ourselves. ”
“What do you need these things for now that she’s dead? Besides, the Bai Clan can be considered to have a lot of face. Because of this, the Bai Clan has come to us to seek forgiveness. The old lady, because of this, decided to follow her!”
Baili Xuanrui nodded.
As they continued to talk, they gradually drifted away from what they were saying. The Jiang Clan didn’t know much.
