Chapter 512: Zhenyuan Hou returns to the capital, attracting widespread attention
Bai Tianhao knew that this would be her reaction, so he was very patient.
"I've really wronged you in this matter, but don't get excited yet. I haven't finished what I'm saying yet."
Bai Xuening smiled bitterly. What else could she say? In the end, it was still about wanting her to marry him.
But then Bai Tianhao said, "I don't really want you to marry the Emperor of Jing. I just set up a trap to lure Xiao Ying to Jing."
"It is also a warning to Yue Nation, letting them know that Anlan Nation and Jing Nation have formed an alliance and are on the same side."
"So you just need to pretend to marry him. For this, Jingguo will give a betrothal gift worth 10 million taels. Our Anlan Kingdom will not lose out."
Bai Xuening's heart moved, and her expression suddenly relaxed a little.
"Grandfather, is this really just a show? I don't need you to really marry me?"
If that's the case, it doesn't matter.
Bai Tianhao sighed, "You are a master of the seventh level of Qi Refining. How could the ancestor let Jingguo get away with it?"
Bai Xuening finally felt relieved, and she said that the ancestor couldn't be so confused.
Thinking of something, she asked again:
"Ancestor, can we really lure Xiao Ying to Jingguo this time? Does Jingguo want to attack her?"
She hated that woman to the core. Not only did she steal her lover, but she also captured her alive and demanded a ransom from An Languo.
She had never lost so much face in her life.
If Jingguo could really kill Xiao Ying, she would be willing to cooperate even without the 10 million taels of betrothal gift.
Bai Tianhao nodded, his expression slightly cold.
"The Kingdom of Jing will use this marriage opportunity to invite her to the ceremony. Even if she has all the tricks up her sleeve, she won't be able to escape the full force of the masters from both countries!"
"Once we capture her alive, all her goodies will be ours."
Apart from anything else, the ferocious beasts at the eighth and ninth levels of Qi Refining are enough to attract people.
What's more, there are countless elixirs, spirit stones, and magic tools...
Just thinking about it made his heart burn with passion.
Bai Xuening also became excited after hearing this. It turned out that the masters of the two countries would join forces this time.
In this way, Xiao Ying will definitely not be able to escape, and she must take revenge for the humiliation she suffered!
"Ancestor, I am willing to cooperate."
"Okay, this is the responsibility that the children of my Bai family should have."
Bai Tianhao smiled with relief. Now everything was ready, he just had to wait for the opportunity to fall into the trap.
…
However, before the envoys from Jing State arrived in Shangjing, Marquis Zhenyuan returned first.
On the day of entering Shangjing, many people stood on both sides of the street, looking around curiously with expressions of reverence.
Marquis Zhenyuan is the war god general of Yue Kingdom, and everyone knows him.
What's more, he is the biological father of the National Master. This relationship alone is enough for everyone to talk about it.
Many people also remembered the incident in which the State Master and the Marquis of Zhenyuan's son were switched since childhood, and they all stood up for the State Master.
Now that the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan has finally returned, I'm afraid there will be some good show to watch.
Chen Xinghai's siblings and other members of the Chen family were also standing upstairs watching.
Zhenyuan Hou and his entourage happened to be passing by a glass shop, so they sat by the window on the third floor early in the morning.
They are the real relatives of Zhenyuan Hou, and they are still very curious about this grandfather whom they have never met.
But after all, it was their maternal grandparents' home, so it was not convenient for them to go directly to the Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion and wait.
Moreover, when generals returned from outside, they would usually go to the palace to see the emperor first.
"I don't know what my grandfather looks like."
Chen Xingyue supported her chin with one hand and looked at the street boredly.
Chen Xingyun pondered, "Grandma is so beautiful, so grandpa shouldn't be bad either, right?"
Chen Xinghai laughed: "I heard that my grandfather was a famous handsome man in the capital when he was young. The high-spirited young marquis must be extremely handsome."
Chen Xinghe said: "Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to give birth to someone as beautiful as you."
The four of them nodded together, and became even more curious about Zhenyuan Hou.
After a moment, Chen Xingyue asked again.
"What if grandpa insists on keeping Han Ye? Mother will definitely be angry."
The other three people all frowned, hoping that their grandfather would not be so stupid, otherwise they would just disown him.
"Look, here it comes."
Chen Xingyun suddenly opened his eyes wide, pointed at a group of people in front and exclaimed.
The other people also suddenly perked up, stood up and looked at it curiously.
On the wide street, a team of hundreds of people came marching in.
The soldiers walking in the front were all wearing armor and riding tall horses, looking very majestic.
Behind them was a long line of infantrymen, holding spears and carrying broadswords on their waists, with solemn expressions.
Cheers came from both sides of the street. The people were in high spirits and enthusiastically welcomed the return of the God of War.
Chen Xinghai and others noticed the Zhenyuan Marquis in the middle at a glance because he was too eye-catching.
Marquis Zhenyuan also rode on a large maroon horse, with an upright figure and a majestic air even without being angry.
He looked to be in his fifties, perhaps because he had been exposed to the wind and sun and fought on the battlefield for many years, so he looked a little older than his actual age.
His iron-blooded aura is frightening and intimidating.
However, you can still see the shadow of his youth, with handsome eyebrows and a high nose bridge.
"Grandpa looks so majestic."
Chen Xingyue couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. It was the first time she had seen such a person.
Even though she had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, she couldn't help but feel fear when facing her grandfather.
"You are worthy of being the God of War General of my Moon Country."
Chen Xinghe praised him generously, with admiration in his eyes.
Chen Xingyun asked doubtfully, "The one on the left looks a bit like my grandfather, so he should be my second uncle, right?"
She was talking about Han Xi.
Han Xi was riding a black horse. He looked to be in his early thirties, with a handsome appearance, like a Confucian general.
"The one on the right is the fake prince."
Chen Xinghai looked at Han Ye calmly. With just one glance, he could tell that he was different from the Han family.
Especially those eyes, with single eyelids and small size, they are very similar to that annoying Xiao Qing.
The only difference is that Xiao Qing is sinister and cold, while Han Ye is resolute and majestic, and his aura also reveals the ferocity and passion of a veteran in the battlefield.
Seeing Han Ye like this, the brothers and sisters felt complicated, but they couldn't even hate him.
Xiao Qing and He Qiuju's family are sarcastic and shameless, but good things have come out of the bad bamboo.
