With the fog in the morning, the sky gradually becomes brighter.
Bai Yan woke up from the bed, got up and put on his clothes. There were faint sounds of laughter and chatter from many people outside the room. Apparently, some nobles from Pingyang City and the nearest Yongcheng City had already arrived at the Bai Family.
Bai Yan did not resist the nobles. After all, no matter which dynasty they were in, there would always be nobles. If you did not make good friends with them, you would drive these people to your opponents and enemies.
Those who have gained the right will be helped a lot, while those who have lost the right will have few. This sentence is not an appropriate description, but from it, we can see the importance of connections in ancient and modern times.
There are many forces in this, which may not be that great if put together alone, but if they are all put together, their power is absolutely frightening.
There was already a maid waiting outside the door. Seeing that Bai Yan had woken up, the maid went to fetch water and breakfast.
After Bai Yan washed up, he saw Bai Ping coming to the room.
Because he knew that it was Uncle Bai who asked Bai Ping to come here with the intention of introducing him to the noble guests coming to the Bai family, Bai Yan was not surprised.
After saying hello, they learned that Bai Ping had already eaten breakfast, so Bai Yan was not polite and started eating alone.
If you don't have some breakfast now, if you are busy dealing with the elders later, you won't have the chance to fill your stomach and you will starve in vain.
Speaking of which, when I first came to Baishi more than half a year ago, I got up late.
This time he slept particularly soundly. The expensive medicinal herbs Bai Yu had been drinking for healing seemed to be really useful.
At least the wound doesn't hurt as much as before.
Bai Yan was having breakfast.
the other side.
Outside the gate of the mansion, there are a large number of guests. The exquisite carriages show the extraordinary status of these visitors. Among the guests who come in droves, they are tall, short, fat and thin, ranging from long-haired to twilight years.
Today is a celebration for the Bai clan, so almost every noble clan that comes is a core clan member, either the clan leader or a respected old man in the clan with the younger generation of clan members.
"congratulations!"
"Zhong Yan, congratulations!"
A distinguished guest looked at Uncle Bai and Bai Yan who were standing at the gate to greet him, and they all held their hands and smiled.
Looking at the Bai family, almost everyone who came here couldn't help but be envious. After Bai Yu, the Bai family had another general, and he was still so young.
This Bai family is really a famous family!
"please!"
"please!"
Uncle Bai and Bai Yan reciprocated the courtesy while being warm and polite, and then asked the servants and maids to take the guests into the house.
Seeing one carriage after another coming from a distance, neither Uncle Bai nor Bai Yan felt strange. They both knew that if there were no accidents, the visitors would be at their peak in the evening. By then,
The whole clan is too busy.
When Bai Yu was knighted, the two of them had experienced it once.
Gulu gulu~!!
However, at this time, suddenly there was a steady stream of horse hoofbeats in the distance, which sounded very fast. Uncle Bai and Bai Yan instinctively turned their heads to look.
Not only Uncle Bai and Bai Yan, but also the nobles outside the mansion door, as well as the carriage that had not yet arrived at the door, all stopped in place.
Everyone felt that the sound was getting closer and closer.
With doubts.
A moment later, dozens of cavalry figures appeared in everyone's sight, rushing towards here quickly.
Those iron cavalry were obviously coming towards the Bai family.
Seeing this sudden scene, not to mention Uncle Bai, Bai Yan, and other members of the noble clan were a little confused.
"what's up?"
"Yes! Why do those cavalry come here?"
"strangeness!"
A man from the elite tribe whispered to each other, and some old men also looked at each other in confusion. Why would there be an iron cavalry coming today on the Bai family's big day?
"Go and tell father!"
Bai Yan, who had thickened cheeks, realized that something might have happened today, so he turned around and ordered his servants to inform his father.
Inside the Bai family's mansion.
In the yard, there were boxes of wooden boxes tied with red cloth. There were so many of them that one couldn't help but wonder what was inside.
Because Bai's family rarely had such a lively day, among the servants coming and going, the figures of children playing happily could be seen everywhere.
Some young noblemen from Yongcheng gathered together with the descendants of the Bai family who they knew well.
During the conversation, almost all the teenagers had one thing in common.
That is the women who look at the women not far away from time to time, or in other words, Bai Yingxue among those women.
beautiful!
It wasn't until this moment that many teenagers finally believed that the rumors about Bai Yingxue were true.
The throbbing of youth made these teenagers' hearts beat faster and they kept swallowing their saliva, imagining in their minds that Bai Yingxue would notice herself at a glance and look at her differently from other people.
But also because of this, these men didn't notice one thing while they were fantasizing.
That is to say, not to mention Bai Yingxue, but also those noble women who were standing and laughing with the Bai women. At the moment, without exception, not a single woman looked at those young men.
"Is she Bai Junzhu, who has unparalleled talent and learning?"
"hiss!"
"There is such a beautiful person in the world!"
Suddenly there was a commotion, causing a young girl to look. When she followed the dull expression of a young boy, she immediately saw Bai Junzhu taking the maid to deliver tea to the main hall.
See this.
The girls are already used to it. In terms of beauty, none of them can compare to Bai Junzhu at the moment.
In the main hall next to the courtyard, Bai Zhong and some respected old men were drinking tea, and Bai Yu was also accompanying him. After learning that Bai Yan was injured and recuperating, and had not yet woken up after drinking medicinal wine last night, these old men did not mind Bai Yan.
Not here.
During this period, many nobles kept asking about Bai Yu's injuries. After asking, these old men also gave Bai Yu the expensive herbs they brought.
Faced with the kindness sent by the respected old men, Bai Yu could not refuse.
At this time, when he saw Bai Junzhu coming in, an old man thought for a while and then looked at Bai Zhong.
"Zizhong, the Bai family has been friends with my clan for more than ten years. I heard that there are two daughters, Junzhu and Yingxue, in their mansion. They are about to reach their prime. It happens that my grandsons of the Meng family, Meng Yun and Meng Qing, have not married. Today, the two families may be together.
How about getting engaged?"
In the main hall, the old man Meng who was holding a cane spoke first, and the other old men laughed.
Only Bai Junzhu, who came in front of Bai Zhong, was a little nervous.
"Hahaha, Old Meng, you are so good at planning. The two talented women of the Bai family. As soon as you, the old man, came here, you wanted to marry them all back to the old Meng family. I admire you very much!"
"Old Mengtou, speaking of your old Meng family, the eldest son's daughter, Meng Qing, is also about to reach her age. Are you planning to betroth Meng Qing to Bai Yan this time?"
An old man stroked his long beard and looked at Old Man Meng with a half-smile.
None of the old men who can sit in the main hall and drink tea have a weak background, and most of them are from Yongcheng and know the basics.
As soon as Old Meng came here, he wanted to monopolize the two famous girls of the Bai family, and he had a big appetite.
"If Zizhong is interested, I, Old Mengtou, will naturally not refuse, hahahaha."
Hearing the laughter, Lao Mengtou, who was holding a cane, didn't mind and said with a smile.
One sentence made the other old men shake their heads in annoyance.
"You, old man Meng, have a big appetite. If you don't let my incompetent grandson Yingpei compete with those two boys from your family?"
An old man was about to speak, but before he could finish his words, a servant hurried in and told him about the cavalry coming from outside.
"What? Iron cavalry?"
"Cavalry? Where did the cavalry come from?"
"Why did the cavalry come to the Bai family at this time?"
One of the old men was puzzled, and then looked at Bai Zhong in confusion.
Bai Zhong was no better at the moment. Hearing the arrival of the cavalry, he also looked puzzled.
Bai Yu frowned, and then slowly stood up with the help of his tribe members.
Bai Zhong also stood up and walked towards the outside of the main hall with Bai Yu. Upon seeing this, the other old men looked at each other and also got up and walked towards the outside of the main hall.
Outside the main hall.
When Bai Zhong and others came out, a cavalry soldier wearing Qin armor and Qin sword in the distance, led by Uncle Bai and Bai Yan, had all arrived in the yard.
Under the gaze of a panicked young girl in the distance, the leading cavalry general hurriedly came to Bai Zhong and others, holding up an edict.
"Your Majesty, please give me an urgent order. Can Bai Yan, the concubine of Zuo, be here?"
The leading cavalry general spoke.
Only then did everyone realize that these iron cavalry were coming for Bai Yan.
"Hold on!"
Bai Zhong cupped his hands and said, although he quickly asked his servants to inform Bai Yan.
Bai Yu also stepped forward at this time, frowning slightly.
"I'm Bai Yu, can you tell me what's going on that makes you so anxious?"
Bai Yu asked, cupping his hands.
Because Bai Yu himself is a general, and he is also a member of the Bai clan and Bai Yan's uncle, so it is most appropriate for Bai Yu to speak, both emotionally and rationally.
Following Bai Yu's words, the cavalry general had no intention of hiding anything. After all, he would also tell Zuo Shu Zhang Bai Yan later.
"General Bai Yu, we don't know what happened. We only know that the king gave three urgent orders to Zuosu Chang Bai Yan to return to Xianyang immediately without any mistake."
The cavalry general wearing Qin armor and Qin sword said to Bai Yu.
One sentence.
In an instant, everyone around him started shouting loudly, and everyone looked at each other in shock.
The king issued three urgent orders!!!
Not to mention the young girls and boys in the distance, even Bai Zhong and the old men, their expressions changed drastically.
Bai Yu was also shocked when he heard the cavalry general's words. As a general, Bai Yu naturally understood the meaning of these three urgent orders.
What big thing happened?
Why is the king so anxious to see Bai Yan?
