Chapter 183
Chapter 183
Many people present wanted to see Bai Yi's jokes, and a pair of children was moving in a wheelchair, but they were standing side by side with them. This made many men feel uncomfortable psychologically, but they didn't expect the situation to change so fast, especially the main station of An Shaocheng. After being on Patriarch Bai's side, the second prince even forced Mr. Fan to apologize to Patriarch Bai.
Mrs. Xiao was gloating at the beginning, she covered her mouth with her handkerchief and pointed at Bai Yi with the people around her, but the next development made her almost exclaim, how could this happen?Was the Bai family so powerful in the past?Let the second prince also be polite to him?
Patriarch Xiao glared at his wife angrily, she really shouldn't have been brought out, other than embarrassing or dragging her back.
Mrs. Cai looked at Bai Yi, who was humiliated and did not show weakness at all, and sighed: "Patriarch Bai has not been easy these years, daughter, do you think you should stop fighting against Patriarch Bai, and don't take one bite at a time... ...The land is Patriarch Bai." Mrs. Cai was ashamed of her daughter, Ruiyang treated her daughter like a sister since she was a child, and her daughter may not really like Ruiyang after being entangled so far, but it seems like a kind of obsession and reluctance The attitude of admitting defeat, this daughter's temper is not at all like her, it's really worrying.
Cai Liyan said awkwardly: "Understood, mother, who was born by you, you should protect outsiders."
"Mother will accept it, it's not on your side." Mrs. Cai gave her daughter an annoyed look, and then looked at her son, who seemed to be more worried, what could she do?
In the viewing pavilion on the man-made hill, Lord An and Hezheng's grandfather and grandson are both here, and the scene below is unobstructed.
Master An didn't criticize his son for standing up for Patriarch Bai, but said: "My son is more serious than my father, and he is too serious. Fortunately, he is in Nan'an City. At the foot of the emperor, the street is full of rich and powerful families, how many people he will offend with his temper."
City Lord An shook his head while talking, and Hezheng laughed: "I like the temper of Young City Lord. Now how many young people can stick to what they believe in? See if I'm the same girl. It didn't take long for me to get into trouble , I almost lost my old face. Forget it, you girl, go out and talk to the young people, don't accompany me, an old man." He said and drove the great-granddaughter out.
He Yuemei got up and bid farewell to Lord An and her great-grandfather with standard etiquette, took the maids around her out of the Jingjing Pavilion, and walked slowly down the mountain.What happened just now was extremely ridiculous in her eyes, these stupid people wasted a lot of time on useless things, even the second prince who held this banquet and invited her here bored her, made her Talking to ladies who only talked about clothes and jewelry, men and children, she preferred to be alone.
Looking at He Yuemei's back, He Zheng sighed. Lord An didn't know whether to sympathize with him or envy him. After all, Fairy He is quite famous in the imperial city, and many people are optimistic about her promotion to become a fourth-rank alchemy Master, the grandparents and grandchildren are all fourth-rank alchemists, and even He Yuemei is more likely to go up because she is young and has more potential. Many people envy the He family to have such a talented alchemist, but he It can also be seen what worries He is having. His great-granddaughter lives more selfishly than his son, and also accepts the truth of death more, but the truth of death she believes in is probably not reasonable for ordinary people, and only she believes in it.
"What news did Elder He get?" Without outsiders, City Master An asked bluntly, "On my side, according to the information I got, a group of the second prince's men and horses were separated halfway, and their whereabouts are currently unknown. Behind the city lord's mansion, there are a few people with good skills who went out of the city to hunt on the pretext of hunting, but they haven't returned yet, so they should be looking for something."
He Zheng paused for a moment while stroking his beard. He and Lord An had the same heart to protect Nan'an City. He didn't want Nan'an City to change too much because of the arrival of the second prince and his party, and to be involved in the whirlpool of right and wrong. After hearing the news about City Lord An, his premonition became even worse: "I wrote to a few old friends, but I haven't replied yet." He didn't even mention this to his great-granddaughter, because the ideas of the grandfather and grandson were completely opposite. Although the great-granddaughter did not accept the second prince, she might not stand by his side.
"His Royal Highness still leads the troops in the border town and has not returned?"
City Lord An shook his head: "There has been no news for a while, that child would rather lead the army outside than come back, he finds it troublesome, this temper..." City Lord An smiled wryly, it would be great if he could get together with the second prince, "I'll leave it to him A letter, I hope he can bring a few people over quietly, so that he can prepare for anything, so that he won't be caught off guard."
He Zheng didn't say anything, how could Master An reveal such a confidential matter to him, how could he reveal it.What's more, the second prince may not be able to hide anything, there are some people with great supernatural powers outside of the Jin country on the mainland, but the more they are like this, the more worried they are about the situation in Nan'an City.
Lin Wen was very bored, but luckily there was Cai Xiaopang, a gossip next to him, he knew a lot of people and had a lot of gossip, and he whispered to Lin Wen that most of those people would not be able to get on the stage, Bai Yi also Hearing this, he managed to hold back his smile. The Great Elder's face calmed down, but when he saw the three of Bai Feng and his son huddled in the corner, his face quickly turned cold again. Bai Mingye saw his grandfather so capricious. He also had a terrible headache, so he had to drag Cai Xiaopang to talk together.
Originally, Bai Feng, father and son attended this banquet with the intention of wooing more people and pleasing the Second Prince and the people around him, but they didn't expect Cai Xiaopang's words to completely shatter their wishful thinking. I really want to strangle Cai Xiaopang and tear his stinky mouth to pieces.
Although there were also like-minded people present, who told Cai Xiaopang to directly rip their faces off, wouldn't it be an admission that he was the same as them if he joined them again?It is okay to have as many dark thoughts behind the scenes, but they just cannot be put on the table, so they tacitly kept a certain distance from them to show their innocence.
On the contrary, people from Bai Yi's side often come here, because Zhou Tingkai often comes here for a while, so the people who come are either negotiating business with the Bai family, or they just want to take the opportunity to see if they can build a relationship with the Zhou family. Others are more difficult to hook up with.
Just after dealing with a group of people, the Great Elder asked Bai Yi calmly: "The Patriarch has thought about how to deal with Bai Feng and the others?"
Thinking of the lessons the Bai family had received in the past, and seeing Bai Feng and his son brazenly sticking close to the second prince and possibly the Fan family, he was worried that the old things would happen again, and he could no longer soften his heart.
"Go back and discuss with the second elder, let's arrange a place for them to stay. Whether it will be good or bad in the future depends on their own abilities. Don't they always feel that I, the Patriarch, is blocking their way?" Bai Yi said lightly. Said, the Great Elder immediately understood that this was to completely divide the clan of the Third Elder and the others out, his hands were stiff, and he did not say anything against it after all. It is unknown if there is a chance of recovery, and he must not let the Bai family be destroyed in his hands.
Bai Mingye's ears were sharp, and he was delighted when he heard this. To be honest, he was also very disgusted with the brothers Bai Mingze and Bai Mingjiang. Treating himself as a direct descendant, if the Bai family really falls into their hands, they will not have a good life like their own.
"That's fine, if you don't stop, you'll be disturbed instead." The Great Elder said after pondering for a while.
Lin Wen did not deliberately listen to what the uncles were talking about, and stayed a little further away from Cai Xiaopang, but he clearly felt that the aura of the uncle and the elder had changed, as if he had made some decision. Could it be that the direction of Feng, father and son has something to do with them?
Suddenly there was excitement in one direction, and excited shouts came. Cai Xiaopang, who likes to be lively, looked around, and turned back to tell Lin Wen: "They must be playing beast fighting, do you want to watch it? But the scene is a bit bloody , or I'd better talk with you here."
Lin Wen almost burst out laughing, almost touched Cai Xiaopang's head and rubbed his hands a few times, and asked, "What is a fighting beast? Humans fighting monsters?"
"Yes, there are games in the city. I heard that this kind of game is very popular in other cities. Some people play in person, and some send their own powerful guards to play. The onlookers can bet on which side will win. Oh, this kind of game There are many ways to play, some people fight with beasts, and some beasts fight with beasts..." Cai Xiaopang is very good at talking about these fun aspects, and he talked for more than ten minutes without stopping, Lin Wen quickly took it A cup of tea was stuffed in his hand, so as not to dry up his mouth.
The Great Elder also heard the movement there, and said to Lin Wen and Bai Mingye: "You guys have to play in the past and play on your own. I am too old to play these things. Ah Wen has money on him, and he wants to place a bet." Let Mingye do it for you."
Bai Mingye sweated, this is his own grandfather, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a foreigner, Lin Wen is the one.
The First Elder worried again: "However, I don't know whether the scenes played by the Second Prince are big or small. If the scenes are too bloody, Ming Ye, you should quickly bring them back."
"Yes, grandfather." Bai Mingye secretly rolled his eyes, but still listened respectfully.
Bai Yi also smiled and said: "It's good to go and have a look, just feel free, if you don't want to see it, let's go back."
It happened that Zhou Tingkai came over and said, "Uncle, I'll take Cousin Sheng and Cousin Ming Ye." He came here specially to invite someone, but it seemed that uncle had no intention of going there, "Ting Kai will take good care of the two cousins and this It belongs to Fourth Young Master Cai."
"Alright, there's Lao Tingkai." Bai Yi said with a gentle smile, this title immediately lifted Zhou Tingkai's spirits.
