Chapter 399 Take the time to visit
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I will definitely bring it!" After the guard bowed to Lu Yuanpeng, he jumped on his horse, and quickly returned to Bai Qingyan's carriage, hunched over and replied to Bai Qingyan in the carriage.
Although Lu Yuanpeng knew that he would not be able to see the sister of the Bai family today, he did not leave in a hurry. He just stood there and watched the carriage of the Zhen Guo County Lord's Mansion leave slowly, feeling a little empty in his heart for no reason.
"Why do I have... a strange feeling." Lu Yuanpeng said to Sima Ping.
Sima Ping stood with his hands behind his back, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Probably... the decline of a prosperous dynasty has already appeared!"
"Ah?" Lu Yuanpeng was a little confused.
"Go back!" Sima Ping smiled and jumped on the horse.
The mighty chariot team of the Bai family silently walked slowly along the official road, and headed towards Shuoyang at a leisurely pace.
In the slightly bumpy carriage, Bai Jinzhi dragged his head with one hand, looked boredly at the gilt auspicious animal triangular incense burner placed on the table of the carriage, and said to the third wife Li: "Then don't let me go out to ride a horse, or I will go Eldest sister in the carriage?"
"Sit down for me! Let your elder sister have a good rest... chattering all day long! You don't look like a girl! Look at you... Nanjiang has not brought back this little face. The two days of traveling to and from Shuoyang It got even darker from the sun, darker than our guards!" The third wife, Mrs. Li, untied the lid of the incense burner, picked it with a silver needle, and added some spices.
Bai Jinzhi was impatient to see Mrs. Li fiddle with these things, so she opened the curtain and looked out.
The official road is fairly flat, with lush greenery on both sides. Bai Jinzhi rides horses every time he talks to Bai Qing to and from Shuoyang, so he is very familiar with this official road.
Now she is really eager to try to ride a horse.
"mother!"
"Sit quietly and read a book. Isn't your eldest sister also sitting in the carriage? Why don't you learn!" The third wife, Mrs. Li, made up her mind to grind Bai Jinzhi's temper, and insisted on suppressing Bai Jinzhi Get out of the carriage.
Bai Jin's cheeks were bulging with childishness, she simply leaned on the auspicious Ruyi double flower pillow, and picked up a book to read like her eldest sister.
The third wife, Mrs. Li secretly covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled, and against her will, she praised her children: "Well, this is what it looks like."
Even Madam Hu, who was serving by Mrs. Li's side, couldn't help covering her lips with a veil and laughing.
Bai Jinzhi, who had been firmly held down by Mrs. Li on the carriage for three days, was finally released from the carriage by Mrs. Li when he saw the gate of Shuoyang City on the third day of May.
When the eunuch led Zhou County Magistrate to welcome Zhen Guo Princess and his party outside the city gate of Shuoyang, the members of the Bai clan also led by Bai Qihe, who was the interim patriarch, greeted Zhen Guo Princess outside the city gate.
Seeing the majestic chariot and horse team of Zhen Guo Princess from a distance, the number of servants who came back was scary.
Bai Qihe's wife, Fang's palms tightened. She originally wanted to send her servants to the Bai family's ancestral house to make friends with Bai Qingyan, but it seems that Bai Qingyan brought back all the servants from the capital city. Now she has to think about it The solution is to start elsewhere.
Bai Qingping raised his eyes and looked at his mother who was twisting her handkerchief vigorously, and couldn't help but whispered: "Mother, most of the Bai family is different from our Shuoyang Bai family. Most of the Bai family is the real inheritance of the Bai family. The bells ringing and the food, even the daily utensils have a long history, let alone the ones that are really used by the side, they are all born in a serious family. Can't get it."
Fang's mind was suddenly picked on by his son, his heart was pounding, he looked around for a week, and then turned his head to look at his son: "Mother didn't mean that!"
"Does mother have this intention? My son does not suggest that mother mention the matter of giving someone away in front of Dadu Bai's family. It is best to avoid suspicion! Mother must not forget the lessons learned by grandfather. It is a fluke that father can accept the position of patriarch, and in the future Whether or not he can continue to be the patriarch depends on the will of Princess Zhen Guo!" Bai Qingping's voice was extremely low.
Mother Fang's mind was clear to Bai Qingping, and it was precisely because of her clarity that she spoke to remind her.
The Bai clan can no longer stand the toss, most of the men of the Bai family are dead, if the Bai clan of Shuoyang, which has been famous for hundreds of years, is not closely attached to the princess of Zhenguo and united as one, it may be their generation Afterwards, the Bai family in Shuoyang will be kicked out of the Bai family by most of the Bai family to establish their own family. The old Bai family in Shuoyang will be the same as the old Xie family in Qingzhou, and will no longer be ranked among the aristocratic families. .
Bai Qingyan, the princess of Zhen Guo, inherited the character of Bai Weiting, the king of Zhen, and Bai Qishan, the Duke of Zhen. As long as the Bai clan is not excessive, Bai Qingyan will never abandon the Bai clan.
Chuntao opened the curtain and took a look, and said to Bai Qing: "Miss, it seems that the Bai clan in Shuoyang has come! Shuoyang's parents and officials are here, and I look like they are still wearing official uniforms."
Bai Qingyan put down the bamboo slips in her hand, thought for a while and said to Nanny Tong: "Mama, please trouble Mama to get out of the carriage later, tell the Bai clan and parents and officials that I am not feeling well, and go straight back to Baifu, thank them for coming Greetings, the White House will prepare a banquet in a few days, and they are invited to come at that time."
"Someone tell the mother and aunts that they don't need to get out of the carriage, and they are still busy returning to the White House after a tiring journey, so they don't need to waste energy here."
As soon as Bai Qing finished speaking, Chuntao ordered someone to report to Mrs. Dong and the wives.
Bai Qingyan's eyes fell back to the bamboo slips in his hands, thinking of the eunuch, he felt that military training... could be used.
She rubbed the edge of the bamboo slips with her fingers, thought for a while and said, "Let Zeng Shanru quietly send a letter to Bai Qingping, asking him to come to the Bai family's ancestral house in two hours."
The prefect, county magistrate Zhou, and members of the Bai clan heard the news, said a few polite words, and hurriedly opened the city gate to allow the magnificent convoy of Zhen Guojun and his party to pass.
The people of Shuoyang talked a lot, and they were very excited. They never forgot that Princess Zhen Guo once said that...the money that the previous head of the Bai clan had corrupted would be used to suppress the bandits.
Those bandits became more and more rampant, even daring to loot the convoy of the princess of Zhen Guo. The people were afraid that those bandits would kill and set fire in the nearby villages, or even come to Shuoyang City.
After all, the government has been silent, and it is normal for the people to be anxious.
However, most people feel excited because Princess Zhen Guo returned to Shuoyang. After all... Princess Zhen Guo was the one who defeated Xiliang and the Nanyan Allied Forces in the southern border. People feel very at ease.
Before the Bai family returned to the White Mansion, Gu Gu had already arranged everything properly, and only placed the objects that the masters are used to every day in the master's yard. If the master doesn't like the color of the curtains displayed and decorated, change them tomorrow. That's it.
