As she returned, the elder sister had very little rest time, and almost always dealt with the government affairs sent by Lu Xiang to the elder sister. She had hardly seen the elder sister have had a good rest, and she followed the soldiers to eat.
Now that I have returned to the capital, my elder sister never stopped for a moment. After settling down my grandmother, I immediately summoned several important officials in the court whom I will rely on to discuss matters.
If this continues, Bai Jinxiu is worried that her elder sister will not be able to hold on.
Bai Jinxiu stood under the corridor, her brows tightened, and soon a secret guard came hurriedly, saluting Bai Jinxiu and lowered his voice and said, "Several vassal kings met the families of the Anxi Palace and Shuofang Palace outside the city, each of them
The oldest King Guang'an left without saying a word. However, King Hedong was stunned and smiled at the Shuofang Mansion. The family members of the Anxi Mansion were greeted by the princess Anxi and the prince.
He was stopped by the King of Hedong, and then he took his relatives back and settled down with King Shuofang."
After hearing the secret guard report in detail the reactions of the five vassal kings outside the capital gate, Bai Jinxiu's hands folded in front of her lower abdomen were rubbing it slightly. In this way, this King of Hedong was a bit interesting.
Bai Jinxiu turned around and looked into the study. From the open window lattice, she saw Bai Qingyan saying something to Lu Xiang, and asked the secret guard again: "Before leaving, I will send you to investigate these five vassal kings.
Have people with detailed information returned in various places?”
"Go back to the second girl, the man has returned three days ago, and the seventh girl has seen him." The secret guard looked up at Bai Jinxiu and asked again, "Do you want to call the man over... and report to the master and the second girl in person?"
Bai Jinxiu shook her head: "Look back and ask Xiaoqi, go... Send someone to keep an eye on the movements of these five vassal kings and report them at any time!"
"Yes!" The secret guard took the order and left.
Bai Jinxiu looked at the pure white lanterns and plain silk that were swayed by the wind in the Bai Mansion. She could vaguely hear the sad cry from the mourning hall in front of her. Compared to that day... Grandfather, uncle, father and younger brother were not there.
The coldness of the crying sounded, the more the more it made Bai Jinxiu realize what it means to be cold and weak in human nature.
When the Bai family was in trouble, there were twenty-three coffins in the courtyard. However, almost all the nobles said that the Bai family would not have a place in the capital in the future. They also took into account the emperor's dislike of the Bai family and did not dare to come to pay their respects. Only the people were in the palace.
Outside, he cried silently and shed tears for the Bai family.
Now, the grandmother is in great funeral, and the nobles in the capital are now the emperor of the Great Zhou because their elder sister is about to ascend the throne. The noble women who come to pay their respects are crying sadly one by one, and the crying sounds resound throughout the capital, but the mansion gates are still in the capital.
How many people who are watching the fun outside will really shed tears.
Bai Jinxiu felt that she could not put Xiaoqi alone in front to guard the spirits for her grandmother. She was about to go to the mourning hall in front when she heard the report from the mother-in-law Liu, saying that the second wife, Liu, had returned and brought Qin Lang and Wang Ge'er.
Since the rebellion of Liang King in March, Bai Jinxiu ordered Cuibi to hold Wang Ge'er and take Liu with Shen Baizhong to find Qin Lang until today, Bai Jinxiu has not seen Wang Ge'er for three months.
As a mother, how could she not want to look at her brother? Her eyes wet and she hurried out.

In the study, Dong Qingping, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, talked about the settlement of envoys from all countries who came to congratulate Bai Qingyan on the ascension of the throne.
Bai Qingyan was covered in dust, and now she was so blue, but she was still sitting straight and arrogant.
As soon as Dong Qingping finished speaking, Lu Xiang said to Bai Qing: "I heard that Emperor Yan issued an order to pass the throne to the prince Li who was once in Dadu, and the ascension of the throne was set on July 19th. The young lord of Yan State ascended the throne, and the lord was young. The country is suspicious, so... the old minister thought that the ninth prince of Yan, who rarely appears outside, came here in person this time. He thought that in addition to congratulating His Majesty on ascending the throne, he might also have the intention of establishing an alliance..."
"It's not just Dayan, but Xiliang may have this meaning. The envoy of Xiliang who came to Dadu City this time is still Li Zhijie, the King of Yan of Xiliang, and the eldest grandson of Yun Poxing... Listen to Li Zhijie's meaning, Yun Poxing's Changsun is here to apologize!" Dong Qingping had no concealment to Bai Qingyan, so he told him about Li Zhijie's gift, "Since the time when he arrived in the capital, he gave gifts everywhere... to Dong's mansion The gift is particularly generous!”
Lu Jinxian nodded: "King Yan also gave a generous gift to the Lu Mansion, but the Wei minister had already accepted the gift from Xiliang according to his father's instructions and turned over to the national treasury..."
"Even I received the gift from King Yan, and Lord Chen Jingzhong also received it! By the way... The Chen family also received the gift. Although Chen Zhaolu was ordered to go to Hancheng to preside over the new policy, King Yan was not allowed to do so. I still prepared a gift for Chen Zhaolu. I heard that... it was Chen Zhaolu who had been asking for it but couldn't get it to find the picture of plum blossoms!" Lu Jin's speech was slow and slow, with some meaning, "Oh... and Li Mingrui, whose father followed King Liang to rebel, was also aware of his rebellion. , The Yan King also gave a gift."
Bai Qingyan understood Lu Jin's words. Anyone who was entrusted with important tasks by Bai Qingyan, Li Zhijie gave gifts. She nodded: "It seems... the news about this King of Western Liang Yan in the capital, He is very versatile."
"The Great Wei was destroyed by Yan State and is now included in Yan State. The wealthy businessman Xiao Rongyan of the Great Wei Dynasty has also become a member of Yan State. This time, he came to the capital with Murong Yan, the ninth prince of the Great Yan State. The Yan King Li Zhijie still condescends to go there. When I met Mr. Xiao, I thought it was because I knew that Mr. Xiao had been kind to the Bai family and wanted to get close to him..." Dong Qingping looked up at Bai Qingyan, as if he wanted to judge whether Bai Qingyan was from Bai Qingyan's expression. He has feelings for Xiao Rongyan.
Seeing Bai Qingyan lowering his eyes, no turmoil, and quiet thinking, Dong Qingping said again: "This Ninth Prince of Dayan takes Mr. Xiao, probably because he knows that Mr. Xiao has had a kindness to the Bai family. Speaking of which... the ninth prince Murong Yan and Mr. Xiao Rongyan are so similar. Now that Wei is merged into Yan State, the ninth prince has never asked Mr. Xiao to avoid changing his name. If it weren't for the fact that the two had a very shallow relationship, they would be the ninth prince of the Great Yan I intend to use this Mr. Xiao.”
Lu Xiang nodded. He also reacted like this when he heard that the Nine Prince of the Great Yan brought Xiao Rongyan with him. Later, he learned that Xiao Rongyan's business in Yan State was taken care of by the Nine Prince of the Great Yan State. He wanted to have some friendship and wanted to use Xiao Rongyan. There are also some kindness to the Bai family.
Xiao Rongyan's brother has just left not long ago, and now her grandmother is gone...
They all understand the pain of losing a loved one.
Bai Qingyan's expression was dim and he endured the soreness of his eyes.
They once said that Yan State destroyed Wei... Xiao Rongyan came to propose marriage.
But now, no matter she or Xiao Rongyan, she has no intention of talking about marriage.
The Great Zhou Dynasty is in chaos, and the young ruler of Yan State ascended the throne, and neither country is stable yet...
She is about to ascend the throne, and Xiao Rongyan must not let go of Yan State.
