Bai Ruochen was not interested in gifts.
After they left the yard, he went to his master's room.
Looking at his master sleeping soundly on the bed, he took a rope and tied his master around the bed several times, then he lay down beside him contentedly.
ah…
It’s better to stay with the master and feel safer.
In the south courtyard.
Several old men gathered together to drink tea.
The second uncle was showing off the health-preserving tea that Bai Yanyan had made for him, saying that it was a top-grade tea that he got from somewhere, and it was very precious, so he only gave it to them to taste because they were his brothers.
When Bai Yanyan came over, she saw the second uncle boasting about it to the skies, and then the uncles and the others drank and commented on it one by one.
"This tea has a floral aroma and is much better than the tea I had before."
"After drinking it, I feel a spiritual energy surrounding me, which makes me feel refreshed. I stayed up all night last night, but now I feel refreshed after drinking this tea. Second brother, where did you buy this tea? Can you give me some too?"
"That's right, Second Uncle, how could you keep such a good thing to yourself? Give me some so I can take it back to my father. He loves tea the most."
"Tea? What kind of tea?"
When Si Fei came over holding Bai Yanyan's hand, he heard their discussion. Then he curiously came over and took a cup and handed it to Bai Yanyan. Bai Yanyan recognized it after just one sip. This was the health-preserving flower tea she had prepared for the second uncle before.
The Bai family is a sword cultivator.
But the second uncle was just the second uncle, who drank tea and walked his birds all day long and had no practice at all, unlike the uncle. Moreover, his health was not good, after all, he was old, so she made him some health-preserving flower tea.
"Yanyan, you look so pretty today."
Afraid that Bai Yanyan would expose him, the Second Uncle quickly ran up to Bai Yanyan and whispered, "Your grandfathers and uncles are very rich, but they are very stingy. I, the Second Uncle, am trying to extort some dowry from them for you."
"I see..."
Bai Yanyan smiled brightly, then rummaged through her space ring, pulling out a variety of health-promoting scented teas. "Second Grandpa, I have a lot more here. Please give me some."
After successfully colluding with the second uncle, Bai Yanyan went to greet others sweetly and successfully received a lot of gifts.
"Hey, Junior Sister has a gift, what about mine?" Si Fei stretched out his hand.
"You don't have any. Go ask your master for a gift."
This brat Si Fei has been with Bai Yun the longest, and has been in the Bai family for more than 20 years. At the beginning, they liked Si Fei very much because he was fair-skinned and handsome, but they didn't expect that this brat was just like Bai Yun, with a black heart.
They don’t know how many times they have cleaned up Si Fei’s mess over the years, and they still want gifts? They’re dreaming!
"Tsk, so stingy!"
"There's no gift for me, but my fellow apprentices should have some. And, Xiao Liuzi is back. If you don't give me a gift, I'll ask Xiao Liuzi to ask you for it."
Everyone: “…”
That little Liuzi looks even more evil, mainly because he is not a human but very strong. If they are bewitched by him, they don't know what embarrassing things they will do.
Several people took out gifts and handed them to Si Fei.
Only then did Si Fei feel satisfied and pulled Bai Yanyan away.
"Bai Yun doesn't care about Si Fei either."
"Bai Yun's disciples were born under the same seal as him. How can we control this? It's impossible to control this! And Bai Yun won't come back for the New Year this year? Where does he go every year?"
"He brought Bai Yanyan back after the New Year two years ago. Could he bring back a wife this time?"
"But it's good too. Bringing back a wife is just right. She can give birth to a son who can inherit the Bai family in the future."
-
Hua family.
It’s not as lively as the Bai family.
The Hua family has few members, so it is not very lively and the whole Hua family is deserted.
When Si Fei brought Bai Yanyan to visit, Old Man Hua was out and not at home. Even Hua Mingyue was out.
"strangeness."
"Mingyue didn't tell me she was going out."
Si Fei was puzzled and went to Hua Mingyue's yard. Bai Yanyan handed the gift she brought to the housekeeper and wanted to go back first, but the housekeeper asked her to sit in the front hall.
"Miss Bai, my master went to the palace this morning and should be back soon."
"Enter the palace?"
Bai Yanyan asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Could it be that he entered the palace to treat Emperor Yongding?
The prince would show no mercy, so Emperor Yongding was dead.
Could it be that he was treating Xuanyuan Che?
That's even more inappropriate.
Xuanyuan Che was indeed useless. She had poisoned him after returning from the hunting ground. She pushed Xuanyuan Che out when she discussed the plan with the prince two days ago. Anyway, he was useless and there was no need for him to live.
She cured Xuanyuan Che's legs, drugged him, and allowed him to enter the palace and usurp the throne.
So... in order to prevent the truth from being revealed during yesterday's 'palace coup', the Crown Prince would have gotten rid of Xuanyuan Che.
"A letter from the palace says something has happened, but I'm not sure what it is." The housekeeper served Bai Yanyan tea and pastries. "But the master should be back soon. Miss Bai, please have some pastries and wait for a while."
"good."
-
In the palace.
Many people were indeed injured in what happened last night.
Emperor Yongding and Prince Ding died together, the Crown Prince was seriously injured, and several princes were also in trouble.
Not only the Hua family, but also the master of the Cangzhu alchemy were invited into the palace.
However, the person invited to the palace was Hua Mingyue, and Old Man Hua had heard that something had happened to Princess Yongning, so he insisted on entering the palace. He wanted to check on Princess Yongning's condition.
