The young man nodded slightly, neither humble nor arrogant nor arrogant, giving people a sense of calmness and a very gentle and polite voice: "Please lead the way."
He had such a demeanor at a young age. Wang Jiuzhou guessed that this young man was probably a young man with a good character and a good family, so he treated the young man more humble and respectfully.
After introducing the young man into Xiao Rongyan's study, Wang Jiuzhou retreated.
Xiao Rongyan was sitting in front of the stove, holding a chess piece in one hand and a book in the other, lowering his eyes to study the chessboard in front of him, and he didn't even look at the boy.
The young man was calm and stood quietly at the door, examining Xiao Rongyan openly, with a bit of arrogant attitude towards the princes of the aristocratic family.
This young man is no other person, he is the brother of the Bai family of Duke's Mansion, Xiao Shiqi's brother... Bai Qingjue.
The water on the stove was boiling and some of the water was poured on the charcoal fire, making a sniffle.
Only then did Xiao Rongyan put the book in his hand on the small table, and used a veil to pick up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, asking, "Can you play chess?"
"A little bit of it." Bai Qingjue replied with a bright and generous manner.
All the sons of the Bai family are the dragons among the people. Even if they are wandering and ragged, they cannot block the arrogant and arrogant nature in their bones.
Xiao Rongyan raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the boy, raised his hand and pointed to the position opposite the chessboard, and smiled and said, "Sit..."
Bai Qingjue was not polite, so he lifted up his hem and posed in a elegant manner. He knelt across from Xiao Rongyan.
Xiao Rongyan poured a cup of tea for Bai Qingjue who was looking at the chess with his eyes down, and smelled a faint smell of blood from the boy. He guessed that the boy was afraid he had any injuries on his body, but he couldn't tell at all just now.
"Young Master is from the Great Jin?" Xiao Rongyan asked with a smile.
Bai Qingjue raised his eyes from the chessboard, looked at the graceful and elegant Xiao Rongyan, nodded and told the truth: "Yes..."
"Young Master of the Aristocratic Family?" Xiao Rongyan asked again.
"I went to the battle with my father, but I never thought that the Jin army was defeated... I was lucky enough to be saved by a slave trader." Bai Qingjue replied very openly, but he did not intend to tell the truth about his name.
Xiao Rongyan nodded, put the teapot back on the stove, and carefully observed the boy's expression: "Xiao Rongyan, a merchant from the Great Wei Dynasty, recently followed the prince of Jin who led 50,000 reinforcements to the southern border... and arrived in Wanping City together.
”
"Crown Prince?" Bai Qingjue looked up, with a little confusion in his eyes.
"It's His Highness the King of Qi before!" Xiao Rongyan explained patiently.
I think this young man was injured and rescued and could not learn about the news of Jin State. It is also necessary to know that the King of Qi has been crowned the crown prince.
Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingjue's eyes that were very similar to Bai Qingyan, lowered his eyes and said, "Young Master, probably not yet knowing that King Xin, who forced the King of Zhen to go to war with a gold medal arrow, has been demoted to a commoner."
Bai Qingjue's eyes were quiet and he looked at Xiao Rongyan with a graceful temperament.
"The Duke of Zhenguo has been posthumously named King of Zhen. King Xin falsely accused the King of Zhenguo of the stubborn army. Who knew that the loyal servant of the Bai family actually sent back the bamboo slips recorded in the marching record. The eldest girl of the Bai family brought the bamboo slips to beat the drums...
With the people's feelings and grievances, the Emperor of Jin forced the Bai family to return justice."
When Xiao Rongyan talked about his elder sister, Bai Qingjue's eyes became darker. He suppressed the emotions that were surging in his heart and tried his best to restrain his expression and prevent him from showing any strangeness.
The elder sister is so weak, can she beat the drum?
But that is indeed what the elder sister’s nature will do, just... I don’t know how the elder sister is now.
Xiao Rongyan was walking on the edge of the teacup, looking at the calm Bai Qingjue with interest, feeling admiration... The descendants of the Bai family are indeed different things, but at the age of fifteen or sixteen, they actually have this kind of mountain collapse before.
He was so calm and composed that he did not change his temperament and did not insult his surname.
"When it comes to Miss Bai, he is really a hero among women." Xiao Rongyan said slowly, "This time, Miss Bai followed the prince to fight together, and walked with the army along the way, picking up the sun-shooting bow.
!The battle in Wengshan... It was only 50,000 Jin troops killed more than 100,000 Xiliang troops in Wengshan Canyon! I wonder if the young master saw the fires soaring into the sky in Wengshan, and the one burned there was the Xiliang army
Corpse.”
Bai Qingjue unconsciously gritted his teeth, his mind trembled. He felt his blood and energy rushed toward his head in waves. Why did the elder sister come to southern Xinjiang?! He also walked with the army with iron sandbags all the way?
He held the hem of his clothes tightly, and the dog emperor forced his elder sister?
No... With the elder sister's mind, if the elder sister is unwilling to be the dog emperor, she can't force the elder sister.
But how could the elder sister have the body... go to the battle?! Did grandmother and aunt not stop the elder sister?
Bai Qingjue's heart was irritated, and his slightly rapid breathing still leaked his emotions. His hands on his knee tightened and slowly loosened, and his emotions had stabilized. It was still unknown whether the news was true or false.
If you care, you will be confused.
Looking at Xiao Rongyan, who was sitting opposite, with a smile on his face, it was hard for him to believe that such a man with a pure and elegant demeanor would be a businessman full of stinking money, so Bai Qingjue did not fully believe in Xiao Rongyan's identity at this time.
Xiao Rongyan put down the teacup: "I forgot to ask, the young master took action to protect that girl today. Did that girl know her?"
"I don't know each other, I'm from Jin, so I can't just watch her be humiliated." Bai Qingjue looked at Xiao Rongyan deeply, "Why did you buy me, sir?"
"Xiao is a businessman, so he will naturally be bound to deal with aristocratic family in the future. Seeing that the young master is of extraordinary temperament and outstanding skills, he must be a child of aristocratic family. He wanted to make a good relationship, so... he asked the young master to come over." Xiao Rongyan was very kind in his words.
Please use it, "I don't know if the young master can tell you which young master it is, and Xiao can arrange someone to send the young master back to Jin State. Of course... If the young master is not convenient to disclose his family background, Xiao will not ask, if he is destined to do so in the future
When we met, I hope the young master will not dislike Xiao’s businessman’s background and can drink a glass of water and wine with Xiao.”
No one else's family said that, and made a special trip to point out grandfather and Duke Zhen's mansion... and the elder sister, Bai Qingjue understood in his heart that Xiao Rongyan was afraid that he already knew that he was a descendant of the Bai family.
Bai Qingjue is a smart person, so how could he not understand Xiao Rongyan's meaning?
Bai Qingjue picked up the teacup in front of him, raised his glass and said to Xiao Rongyan: "I owe you my kindness to you, and I will repay it myself. I will never dare to drag the family into it. I hope the teacher will understand."
Since Xiao Rongyan did not point out his identity, he did not intend to say it directly, but the Bai family has always been rewarded with kindness, so the slave trader saved him, so he did not escape and let the slave trader sell it...
Originally, he planned to leave by himself if someone bought it, as long as the buyer did not let him do anything confusing, he would repay his kindness.
Unexpectedly, he was rescued by Xiao Rongyan, a wealthy businessman in Wei. The name Xiao Rongyan can be said to be famous... Bai Qingjue has heard of it.
