You transmigrated to a world filled with feudal lords, becoming a hostage prince in an enemy nation. Please choose one of the following methods to escape:
A: Study diligently, cultivate noble...
In the past, the head of the Bai family was your mother. Now that the whole family has moved to the State of Li, you are naturally the head of the family.
Please take the main seat and don't feel any psychological pressure."
Am I under psychological pressure?
I'm afraid that you will feel psychological pressure if I sit in the main seat.
Ying Wuji secretly complained in his heart, thinking that this great elder was really a bit cunning, sitting back on the Diaoyutai while letting the little bootlicker charge into battle, and then he got to sit in the main seat, but instead gave the little bootlicker a light scolding.
This explanation made him appear sincere and extremely open-minded.
But that's indeed the case with the Bai family.
Since the Bai family is a celestial race, their origins must naturally be before the time of Emperors Yan and Huang. Even if they left the human territory, it was during the time of Emperor Zhuanxu.
At that time, the living environment of the human race was harsh, so naturally they needed the most shrewd and courageous people to be leaders. Leaders were often young and middle-aged people, and although there was a seniority system, there was no soil for corruption to take root.
Later, I went to the demon realm and the situation was the same.
Therefore, the rules within the Bai family have not changed.
It was not until I went to Gan State that I was vaguely influenced by the Central Plains aristocratic tradition of respecting elders.
But the impact is not that big.
At least now most people in the Bai family recognize me.
Ying Wuji smiled and said, "In that case, I will be disrespectful to refuse it."
After saying that, he sat directly on the main seat.
The first elder Bai Nong and the second elder Bai Ling sat on the two sides respectively, while Bai Yi, the former head of the family, sat in the fourth seat.
The atmosphere returned to harmony.
The Bai family has just arrived, and all their foundations in the State of Li come from Ying Wuji. Coupled with the prophecy of the old Taoist of the Bai family, everyone is quite convinced of this seating arrangement.
Even the Yingtian faction readily accepted it.
Bai Nong was somewhat emotional: "My Bai family has worked hard in Gan Country, and the young people in the family have fought hard, but I never thought that they all served the King of Gan. If it weren't for you, Wuji, who suddenly emerged in Li Country, I'm afraid we don't know when we can escape from that prison!"
These words came from the heart and did not seem false.
Bai Ling couldn't help but sigh, "I'm ashamed to say this! Wuji, you have been alone and helpless since you were young in Li Country. Even when you were assassinated, our Bai family, as your mother clan, couldn't lend a helping hand. In the end, we had to turn to you for help!"
Ying Wuji smiled faintly and said, "Two elders, please don't say that. Although I did have a hard time before, if it weren't for the crucial support from my mother's clan, I might not have reached this point today."
Bai Nong looked solemn: "Thank you for your hard work, Wuji!"
There was a brief silence in the hall.
Everyone present felt a little sad.
He had clearly made great achievements in the country before, but he still ended up in such a miserable state.
In the previous few months, they were imprisoned in the wasteland on the border of Gan State and Quanrong. Although they had three meals a day, they were handcuffed and shackled every day, and were treated like animals. Everyone was furious.
There was a moment of silence.
Bai Nong stared at Ying Wuji: "Wuji! I don't know what you think, but now all of us in the tribe agree that if we have power, we must control it in our own hands. The human dynasty today is different from the era when our Bai family left the Central Plains.
If power is not in one's own hands, even if one is in the highest position in the country, a century of business will be destroyed in an instant if the king is angry.
This is what the country is like!
This is even more so after the reforms in the Kingdom of Li!
Although the new land has not yet been harvested, it already looks like fertile soil.
Wuji, you are the first hero of the new land, I wonder if you have any ideas. "
Ying Wuji glanced around the hall and found that everyone, young or old, had a flame burning in their eyes, and it was unclear whether it came from anger or ambition.
That's understandable.
He turned his gaze towards Bai Ling: "Second Elder, what do you think?"
Bai Ling pondered for a moment and sighed, "That's true! Although our Bai family has our own ideas, we have been in Gan Kingdom for so many years and have never let down the Gan royal family. But now we have been let down by the Gan royal family and have no power to resist when facing the encirclement and suppression.
If possible, I naturally need the Bai family to hold power.
But in prison, I thought about it and realized that if the Bai family did not have this belief at all and completely submitted to the Gan royal family, they might also become the most prominent family in the Gan country.
After all.
It’s because we old guys have not fully adapted to the current Central Plains dynasty.
What is right?
What's wrong.
I can't tell the difference either.
But since the old elder has released the prophecy, we all believe that you, Wuji, are the future of the Bai family."
Hearing this.
Bai Nong's face was a little unhappy: "Second brother! If everyone in the Bai family thinks like you, then what is the difference between the Bai family and other pedantic nobles? Although we don't consider ourselves to be the celestial race, we have saved the human race.
You are also from the older generation.
You know how powerful the demon race is today.
If our Bai family follows the crowd, when the day comes when the Zhuanxu Seal loosens, will the human race just surrender?"
When I heard him say this.
Many people in the hall nodded slightly.
There are even quite a few people who believe in prophecies.
Bai Ling did not give in at all: "But is welcoming the Celestials a good choice? Why did our Bai family take the initiative to break the barriers with the human race back then? Wasn't it because the Celestials were greedy? It was like this thousands of years ago. After being locked up in another world for thousands of years, will greed disappear?"
Bai Nong snorted: "No matter what, they all originated from the human race. Even if they are greedy, are they more harmful than the demon race?
What's more, we helped the human race at that time, but we were still exiled to the demon realm.
Even if the Celestials are really greedy, so what?
