Outside Feng Mansion, Bai Yan frowned when he heard Xi's words.
Bai Yan did not expect that Xi would meet Zhang's father and son, Zhang Xiao and Zhang Shuo in Xianyang City.
Xi is the maid next to the Bao family. Naturally, she has met many members of the Zhang family who have been living together for five generations. People from the Zhang family will not pay attention to a maid, but Xi remembers the faces of the Zhang family members.
So today when I was in the city, I accidentally saw the small window of a carriage. Zhang was looking at Xianyang inside.
Said father and son stepped out of the carriage.
"I will order someone to take my wife to Yanmen and Xi later. You go back to protect my wife first!"
Bai Yan said to Xi.
After understanding what happened, and after learning about Zhang Xiao, Zhang said that his father and son went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet Mi Qi, Lord Changping. At the moment, Bai Yan was not sure whether Lord Changping knew about the Bao family.
In the entire Xianyang City, Yao Jia was the only one who had ever seen the Bao family, but Bai Yan would never use the Bao family's safety to gamble on Yao Jia's character, even if Yao Jia was a saint with the highest moral standards.
In Bai Yan's heart, Bao's safety has never been a bet.
What's more, Xi once said that when she saw the way Yao Jia looked at his wife that day, she wished he could take her as his own. That greedy look was frightening given Yao Jia's high position and power.
It occurred to me that Zhang and his son had just arrived in Xianyang and had not seen the stream yet.
At this time, as long as the Bao family leaves Xianyang and goes to Yanmen, they will be safe and sound, and Bai Yan will not worry about what will happen next.
Even if things are exposed in the future.
"Okay, General! Xi will go back right now!"
Hearing Bai Yan's words, Xi nodded quickly.
not far away.
Bai Ping and others looked at Bai Yan, full of doubts. When they saw what Bai Yan told the woman, the woman kept nodding. Then Bai Yan handed the token to two civilian soldiers and asked them to escort the woman away.
Seeing Bai Yan coming back, Bai Ping thought for a while and stepped forward.
"Did something happen?"
Bai Ping looked at Bai Yan and asked.
Today is his big day, and even if there is the slightest disturbance, he can't help but get nervous.
"fine!"
Bai Yan did not tell Bai Ping about Zhang and his son.
This involves the Bao clan.
The reason why Xi came in a hurry in person was because he was worried that other people would know about the Bao family and Zhang family.
Thinking that the Bao family was in Xianyang City and would be in danger at any time, Bai Yan felt a little gloomy. If it was determined that Rui Wei did not dare to report to the official, two of the swords sent by Rui Wei should be reserved for the Zhang family and his son.
However, this thought disappeared from Bai Yan's mind in the blink of an eye.
Bai Yan knew very well that regardless of whether the Zhang family and his son were related to Lord Changping in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Zhang family and his son had indeed come to Xianyang to visit Lord Changping in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
If the Zhang family and his son died in Qin.
Lord Changping would order a thorough investigation even for the sake of reputation.
And with the number of officials of the Chu family in Qin, as well as the connections of the Chu family, it will lead to countless troubles at the end of the day.
Even regardless of the matter of the Bao clan or the murder, it would be put in front of Ying Zheng and the Chu clan would not let go.
"Welcome the bride first!"
Bai Yan looked at Bai Ping and said softly.
Then he took the lead and walked towards the Feng Mansion. The Bao family was still safe now, and the top priority now was the marriage between the Bai family and the Feng family.
Bai Yan, who was about to give an explanation just now, has already told Xi and asked Xi to tell the Bao family.
Inside the Feng Mansion.
Because of the marriage between the Feng family and the Bai family, there are also many people from other noble families in the mansion at the moment.
Under the leadership of the maid, Bai Yan quickly brought Bai Ping, Bai Junzhu, and Bai Yingxue to meet Feng Jie, the master of Feng Mansion, in the courtyard of Feng Mansion.
Previously, Bai Yan and Feng Jie were in Zhao, and they discussed with the leader of the army together in Yan. They often got along with each other. In the battle of Jingxing, the two of them went into battle together to kill the enemy. Therefore, when the two met now, they had no feelings for each other.
strangeness.
2. The relationship and experience we get together on the battlefield are far beyond the ordinary people we meet at a banquet of wine and meat.
Under the watchful eyes of all guests.
Bai Yan and Feng Jie exchanged gifts with each other very cordially.
However, unlike in Zhao Di, when Bai Yan saw Feng Jie now, he would change his name and call him Shi Bo.
And Feng Jie no longer calls Bai Yan a general, but instead calls him nephew.
After the ceremony.
Feng Jie looked at Bai Yan, although he felt a little regretful that he could not marry his daughter to Bai Yan.
But this thought only lasted for a moment, and soon passed away.
Compared to Bai Yan, who is young and has outstanding military leadership skills, perhaps it is a good thing for his daughter to marry Bai Ping, who has more mediocre qualifications.
Later.
Under the gazes of Bai Yan and Feng Jie, Bai Ping stepped forward, holding the bamboo slips in both hands, and presented it to Feng Jie.
After Feng Jie took the bamboo slip, he slowly opened it.
Bai Yan on the side saw this and knew that this was just a formality.
The etiquette had already been agreed upon when the marriage was first discussed. Neither Bai nor Feng actually cared about gifts, and giving too much was just for appearance.
At Bai Yu's mansion two days ago, Uncle Bai, Bai Yan, and Bai Yu were all there, and everything had been discussed clearly.
I came here today just to pick up the bride.
If you weren't worried about the nobles causing trouble, you wouldn't even need Bai Yan to come over.
really.
Under Bai Yan's gaze, Feng Jie simply looked at it for two or three times, then nodded and put away the bamboo slips.
From this point on, it means that Feng Jie will be Bai Ping's father-in-law in the future. In the future, Feng Jie and the Feng family will cultivate Bai Ping behind his back and become Bai Ping's support.
Think of this.
Bai Yan turned to look at Bai Ping, who had a happy face and was facing Feng Jieji again.
Bai Ping and Bai Yan also have some understanding. As a person, his character is not bad, but in terms of talent, he is not very good.
However, Bai Yan knew very well that even if Bai Ping's talents were somewhat mediocre, as long as the Bai family and the Feng family existed in the future, Bai Ping's achievements would not be low. In the political career, as long as he had enough qualifications, it would not be impossible for him to become Yaqing or even Zhengqing.
This also makes people sigh, this world has many decisions when it is born.
Ordinary nobles or declining nobles, in their lifetime, if they don't have great talents, they have no chance to go very high. They can even become a small official and make a living, which is already considered good.
However, for famous families, even if the children do not have any extraordinary talents, most of them can guarantee their future status through marriage, which will never be low.
Even if they are colleagues, even if they have the same status, they will still pay attention to their background in the eyes of the world.
This is still the gap between ordinary noble families and famous families.
If you are a farmer.
That is almost impossible, unless you are blessed by God like him.
Bai Yan knows this very well. There will never be another person like him in this world.
Not to mention, to reach this point, whether it is yourself, meeting Jin Gong and others, or even Zou Xing, Bai Yu, these people are indispensable.
If Zou Xing had not told him the secret out of revenge, even though he came to Qin, he would never have gone to the Bai family, and nothing would have happened later.
In the courtyard of Feng Mansion.
As Feng Jie nodded and gave the maid some instructions, the maid quickly stepped forward, came to Bai Junzhu and Bai Yingxue, said something, and then led Bai Junzhu and Bai Yingxue away.
"The Bai family is famous for its double beauty and is famous in Xianyang. It deserves its name!"
Feng Jie looked at the backs of Bai Junzhu and Bai Yingxue, then turned to Bai Yan and said.
Then Feng Jie turned to look at the two sons of Feng Wuze who were in charge of reception among the nobles who came to congratulate him in the distance. He saw that the two young men were worried about gains and losses, with a look of loss on their faces. Feng Jie was still comforting him two days ago, but now it seems that
, but I can understand why.
Even without mentioning the background of the Bai family behind them, the beauty of the two girls just now is enough to fascinate people.
"Feng Bo's praise!"
Bai Yan came back from his thoughts after hearing Feng Jie's words.
Because Bai Junzhu is not here, I can only replace Bai Junzhu and say humbly.
Bai Ping on the side had a strange expression on his face when he heard Bai Yan's words.
Then he couldn't help but look at Bai Yan.
Bai Ping knew very well that in the eyes of others, Bai Junzhu was a member of Bai Yan's clan, but in fact, Bai Junzhu was Bai Yan's fiancée.
Just then.
There was noise in the distance. Everyone heard the sound and went away. They saw a woman in red slowly appearing in everyone's sight, accompanied by Bai Junzhu, Bai Yingxue and a beautiful woman.
Bai Yan looked at the woman in red in the distance and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the tall and tall Feng Jie's daughter would be so slim and graceful, and she looked exactly like the beautiful woman next to him.
It seems that the woman should have inherited more from that woman than Feng Jie.
For that beautiful woman.
Bai Yan heard Uncle Bai and others mention it last night.
Regarding Feng Jie's first wife Ran Leng, Bai Yan was not surprised that Feng Jie could marry such a beautiful wife. Just like him, now that he has gained status, he is participating in the war to destroy the country, not to mention the women sent by other nobles.
, can meet a beauty like Bao Shi.
Even the Bai family thought of marrying Bai Junzhu to him after he gained status and ability.
As a general of the Qin State, Feng Jie had a Feng family background, so he was no exception.
Inside the Feng Mansion.
After Bai Ping saw his wife's appearance, the smile on his face became even bigger, and the corners of his cracked mouth could not be closed at all.
When Feng Hui, who was wearing red, came forward, Bai Ping and Feng Hui saluted each other.
Bai Yan watched from the side and did not get involved in the upcoming wedding. After all, Bai Ping, who was Feng Hui's husband, was responsible for the rest.
Wait for Bai Ping to lead Feng Hui towards the outside of the mansion.
Bai Yan looked at the guests around him. Under Feng Jie's introduction, he got to know the elders of the noble clan, and at the same time, he paid attention to the surrounding situation at all times.
Although he was at Feng Jie's residence, Bai Yan was really afraid of that blind person who would cause trouble even if he didn't care about his life.
"Feng Jing!"
"Feng Dai!!"
While Bai Yan was greeting the nobles, two young men came to Bai Yan, bowed their hands in a ceremony, and introduced themselves.
Because it was a marriage between the Feng family and the Bai family, and Bai Yan was related to the Bai family, the two Feng brothers did not call Bai Yan by his title, which further showed their closeness.
"Bai Yan!"
Bai Yan cupped his hands and returned the greeting.
Seeing the two Feng brothers in front of him, who had perfectly inherited Feng Jie's burly strength, Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Bai Ping was really lucky.
After Bai Yan chatted with the Feng brothers for a few words and saw that the sky was almost dark, the servant came over and informed Bai Ping that Feng Hui had been picked up in the carriage.
Bai Yan then said goodbye to Feng Jie and Feng Jie's wife Ran and left.
After Feng Jie and Ran returned their gifts, Bai Yan, Feng Jing, and Feng Dai brothers exchanged gifts and then walked out of the mansion.
But Bai Yan hasn't waited for Bai Yan to take two steps.
Suddenly, a servant came to Feng Jie with a hurried expression.
"Sir, the eldest son has arrived!"
The servant said to Feng Jie.
This sentence made Feng Jie look stunned. The Ran family, Feng Jing, and Feng Dai brothers on the side couldn't help being shocked, and they all looked at Feng Jie.
Why did the eldest son come to Feng Mansion?
"Did you hear that? Eldest Young Master!"
"Hiss, Young Master Fusu!"
"Young master Fusu actually came to Feng's house, this"
In the courtyard, because of Feng's connections and connections, many noble guests came to congratulate them, so when they heard that the eldest son Fusu had arrived, everyone was stunned.
What followed immediately was a steady stream of exclamations.
After all, they are not the only ones, almost everyone knows that the person who will succeed King Qin in the future will definitely be Young Master Fusu.
The eldest son has the support of the Chu family's huge officials and connections, unless Ying Zheng wants to repeat the same mistakes as King Wuling of Zhao, King Yan, etc., and plunge Qin into civil strife.
Once the eldest son is not appointed to help Su succeed to the throne, after Ying Zheng's death, the Chu officials of Qin will never agree with other sons who succeed him, and may even trigger a rebellion.
Without the suppression of the eldest son Fusu, apart from the young master who succeeded to the throne, the forces behind other young masters would also take the opportunity to plot to succeed.
Such a thing.
From ancient times to the present, it has been common in various vassal states.
That's why everyone's reaction was so great when they heard that the eldest son Fusu was coming.
Regarding the eldest son who could succeed to the throne and become the new King of Qin in the future, all the nobles' hearts became hot and their breathing became rapid. Everyone got to know the eldest son and gained his favor.
In the courtyard.
Accompanied by the noise and eager eyes of countless people, Feng Jie and Ran rushed to the corridor and saw that in the corridor, accompanied by servants and maids, the young master Fusu, dressed in luxurious silk clothes, had walked over.
.
"Feng Jie, meet the eldest son!"
"Bai Yan, meet the eldest son!"
Regardless of whether it was Bai Yan, Feng Jie or Ran Shi, when they saw Fusu, they quickly handed over their hands and made a ceremony.
Fusu stopped and raised his hands.
"Fusu, I have met two generals!"
Fusu returned the greeting.
After the ceremony, Fusu looked at Feng Jie, and then looked at Bai Yan aside, with a smile on his face.
I don't know if it's because of his age, or because he knows Bai Yan's experience in Gaonu, Shangjun.
For Bai Yan.
The goodwill and closeness in Fusu's heart were sudden and direct. This was something that had never happened to any Qin official or minister.
When Lian Fusu was free at night, he couldn't help but wonder when he recalled it, but when he thought of Bai Yan, a smile appeared on his face.
"Young Master is here today. Feng Jie is a little far away from us. I hope you will forgive me!"
Feng Jie looked at Fusu's eyes as he looked at Bai Yan, which was full of strangeness.
Why do you feel that the eldest son and Bai Yan are like old friends in the past? Could it be that they have known each other a long time ago?
Think of this.
However, Feng Jie began to deny it in his heart. If he had known him a long time ago, after the Yanmen incident, Bai Yan went on a killing spree against those nobles, and the Bai family would not have to be so anxious to seek marriage with the Feng family.
Bai Yan already has the trust and favor of Ying Zheng. If she has a good relationship with the eldest son, and with the connections and connections behind the eldest son, Bai will not have to worry about anything at all.
"Today is General Feng's happy day. Why come so far to welcome him? I'm sorry, but Fusu wants to congratulate General Feng!"
After hearing Feng Jie's words, Fusu turned his gaze from Bai Yan to Feng Jie, raised his hands and said.
Finished.
Fusu asked the servant behind him to take a roll of bamboo slips and handed it to Feng Jie.
"This is a gift from Fusu. I hope General Feng will not refuse!"
Fusu said.
When Feng Jie heard this, he quickly took Fusu's bamboo slips with both hands.
Bai Yan on the side saw this and looked at Feng Jie, and then when he looked at Fusu, who was younger than him, he saw Fusu's eyes full of intimacy.
For some reason, Bai Yan felt a little nervous.
Because Bai Yan is not stupid, he can clearly feel Fusu's closeness to him, and it doesn't seem to have any purpose.
Bai Yan couldn't figure it out after much thought.
At this time.
Fusu suddenly spoke.
"General Bai!"
After hearing this, Bai Yan came to his senses and saw Fusu looking at him with a smile on his face.
In the courtyard.
Because of Fusu's arrival, the gentry guests, young and old, who gathered in dense groups did not dare to speak loudly at this moment.
However, the scene in the distance still caused many people to whisper in private.
"Have you seen it? Why do you feel that the eldest son Fusu is very close to Bai Yan?"
