Bai Changkong arrived home and went straight to the backyard.
The north wall of Lan Tianyuan was smashed to pieces by Lu Qian and his men last night, and they were forced to use planks to build a row of crude wooden walls.
Bai Changkong looked at the leaky wooden wall, and then at Lan Tianyuan, which was almost burned to the ground. Even though he was very skilled in cultivating qi, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood again.
Gritting his teeth, ignoring his heartache, Bai Changkong went straight to the Lan Tianyuan, which he had spent a lot of effort to design every mountain, every stone, every flower and every grass. Bai Changkong went straight to the rockery where the small building collapsed, revealing the tunnel below.
Bai Lang and nine other second generations of the Bai family, including Bai Qiong who had lost his vitality and looked sickly, were standing on the hill.
Seeing Bai Changkong, a group of people hurriedly saluted.
Bai Changkong waved his hand and jumped down the tunnel without saying a word. He fell fifteen feet straight and found a spacious tunnel in front of him.
Walking along the corridor for a hundred feet, here is a large square room. The ceiling, floor, and walls are all decorated with extremely precious rosewood. There are carved caissons, large four-corner pillars, and exquisitely carved landscape patterns on the walls.
It's so beautiful, it's to the extreme.
This large house covers an area of one acre and uses a huge amount of rosewood. The cost of building this house alone is probably more than 3 million yuan.
This, the white sky with 'breeze on both sleeves'...
Bai Changkong entered the room alone, with a gloomy face and looked at an altar under the wall at the back.
It is also an altar carved from red sandalwood, with a gilded statue about ten feet high on it.
The protagonist of the statue is extremely weird. It is a ferocious man with three heads and six arms, wearing a lotus flame crown. There are several flame ribbons wrapped around the man's six arms, but other than that, he is completely naked.
The man's golden rooster is independent on one foot and raised on the other. Sitting on it is a beautiful girl, whose limbs are intertwined with the man's in an indescribable posture.
This is a statue that is not very serious.
Bai Changkong knelt in front of the altar, kowtowed three times to the statue, clasped his hands respectfully and muttered a few words.
In the corner of the big red sandalwood house, a wooden door that fit perfectly with the wall and no trace of it could be seen on the outside slowly opened. A tall man, almost eight feet tall, was a bit taller than Bai Changkong. He had a beautiful figure and was extremely tall.
A hot, beautiful girl wearing a gauze walked out slowly with a wisp of fragrance.
"What happened to the gongs and drums last night?"
The girl walked up to Bai Changkong, raised her bare feet casually, and kicked Bai Changkong in the face.
Bai Changkong snorted coldly, his right hand was like a knife, a dark golden light lit up, and with a 'chi-la' sound, he struck the girl in the heart of the foot with his palm.
There was a 'bang' sound, but Bai Changkong didn't move at all.
The girl's body swayed violently, and she staggered back several steps, with a look of shock on her beautiful face.
"Hey, I can't tell. You Bai Xingxing looks worse than the old man, but you are much more powerful than those strong men... What happened outside last night? Several of my maids died inexplicably.
some."
Bai Changkong stood up, took nine thin incense sticks from the sachet on the altar, lit the incense sticks with an ever-burning lamp on the altar table, and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner in front of the statue.
"You need to change places." Bai Changkong frowned: "Hao Jing, I'm a little unsettled these days."
"The Nine Yin Sect came out to cause trouble. Let's not mention this. They were touched by the palace guards. Trouble is bound to happen."
"However, hundreds of dead soldiers in Sijifang rose up and started killing people without any choice or purpose."
Shaking his head, Bai Changkong turned to the girl and said in a deep voice: "This is not right. In the past two years of peace, someone wants to cause trouble. Last night, even my Lantian Garden was burned down. Now I don't know how many people are staring at me. You
There are traces..."
The girl came close to Bai Changkong, stretched out her slender, snow-white, and as tender as onion fingers, and gently tapped Bai Changkong's nose: "Oh, if you show any trace, just say that I am your old friend..."
Bai Changkong glared at the girl: "Then, do you still want to enter the palace?"
The girl was stunned, rolled her eyes, and laughed: "Oh, I almost forgot about this. By the way, I have to go to the palace to find the emperor."
Casting a wink at Bai Changkong, the girl smiled leisurely and said, "How about I show my traces on purpose, stop entering the palace, and live with you as my partner?"
"It's no fun to serve a stupid king. You're old and you're old. You're very fierce in your bones. That palm just now was very powerful. Why don't your sons call me 'Mother' from now on!"
The girl laughed so hard that her whole body trembled, and she cast her charming eyes at Bai Changkong one after another.
Bai Changkong ignored her. He put his hands behind his back and frowned at the luxurious rosewood decorations around him. After a while, he sighed quietly: "What a headache. If this house cannot stand the inspection, it will fall into the eyes of those who are interested."
It's a problem here."
"These rosewood trees must be dismantled and transported as quickly as possible."
"With such a huge space underground, we need someone who can take the blame."
"The previous landowner who sold this house to me had a good relationship and it was difficult to do anything about it... Then, the previous landowner had no choice but to ask his entire family to die."
The girl's pupils were condensed, she put her hands on her hips and sneered at Bai Changkong: "You gentlemen who are studying are all so ruthless and shameless. Didn't you build this red sandalwood palace to please my master? And
What does the previous landowner have to do with it?”
Bai Changkong glanced at the girl and said calmly: "Save your coquettish energy to deal with the emperor. This place must be cleaned up as soon as possible. I will arrange for you to leave as soon as possible. You..."
Bai Lang rushed in in a hurry. He quickly raised his head, glanced greedily at the girl's extremely beautiful body, and said hastily: "Dad, outside the door, someone from the palace came in. They... they..."
Bai Lang's expression is very wonderful.
That expression is too wonderful to describe.
Bai Changkong's body swayed slightly and he took a deep look at Bai Lang. His eldest son had been carefully taught by him since childhood. Not only was his character and methods much better than those of his eight younger brothers, even in Haojing Among many wealthy families, among the new wealthy families in culture and education, he is considered a top figure compared to his peers.
Ordinary things would not make him so confused.
What's going on?
Bai Changkong hurriedly left the red sandalwood house. The tall and beautiful girl curled her lips, hummed softly, and walked around the huge room twice.
"Hey, this damn old man, if it weren't for the addition of beautiful girls in the palace after the first month, and his recommendation, I would have disturbed his family... I'm afraid, he has already done what he teaches, how can he pretend to be a serious person? Woolen cloth?"
The girl cast a wink at the ferocious statue on the altar: "My ancestor, do you think Nunu is right? Hey, we can't be considered good people!"
The girl suddenly covered her mouth, and 'Aqiu' sneezed.
She twisted her waist and slapped her hand, smearing the saliva and snot on the statue's feet.
Bai Changkong soared into the sky and rushed to the top of the hill.
He instinctively looked towards the north and saw Lu Qian.
Early in the morning, Lu Qian was squatting on the steps at the entrance of the Survey Department, holding a large bowl and sipping hot meat porridge.
Dahuang squatted next to Lu Qian, lowered his head and licked the already bare food bowl.
The plump rabbit was crouching at Lu Qian's feet with narrowed eyes. When he saw Bai Changkong suddenly appeared on the Lantianyuan hill opposite, the rabbit's body was covered with long hair, and he let out a "ha" sound.
Bai Changkong gave Lu Qian a deep look.
Lu Qian stood up and raised the sea bowl in his hand towards Bai Changkong in the distance: "Master Bai family, would you like some porridge? From now on, we will all be neighbors. If you have any use for me, just tell me!"
Bai Changkong smiled at Lu Yi, nodded, then turned and left.
His speed was extremely fast. After descending the hill, his figure was like the wind, and he reached the front yard in a few flashes. As he walked, he asked hurriedly: "Does the fire last night have anything to do with that puppy? Seriously. Check it out, I feel a little uneasy when I see that puppy’s face, so I need to check carefully to find out how the fire started.”
At the gate of the Bai family, a dozen eunuchs lined up in a row, blocking the frustrated Bai family housekeeper and several servants with a smile.
Two young eunuchs were busy at the left door frame of the Bai family's gate.
A little eunuch held the ladder, and another little eunuch stood on the ladder, holding a hammer and nails, and nailed a palm-sized gold medal to the door frame with a clanking sound.
The workmanship of the gold medal is extremely exquisite. In the middle are two small characters "Chu Xiu" made of broken jade!
Those who understand the rules of the Dayin royal family and the etiquette of the Dayin court will know that this is the 'Chu Xiu' gold medal. The gold medal is nailed to the door of whose house it means that there is an unmarried girl in that family. , the woman who has been designated as the emperor will be sent to the palace soon.
If you are not lucky, these little girls may stay in the palace for three to five years, and then leave the palace as ordinary palace maids. No one will care about you, whether you marry someone or become a monk.
If you are lucky, if you have been favored by the emperor but failed to give birth to a son and a half daughters for the emperor, you will have to be prepared to squat in the imperial city for the rest of your life and live in the cold palace for the rest of your life.
If you are more lucky, if you are favored by the emperor, given a palace title, and can give birth to a prince or princess for the emperor, then congratulations, you will have a lifetime of glory and wealth, including the glory and wealth of your relatives.
If a girl from the Bai family is named a concubine, according to convention, there will at least be a title of "uncle" waiting for Bai Changkong!
However, the fatal problem lies here. Among the three generations of the Bai family, there is only one eldest girl, Bai Lu!
When Bai Changkong rushed out with his sons, the young eunuch in charge of nailing the sign turned back and smiled proudly: "Jiancheng, look at this little sign, is it nailed straight and firmly?"
The little eunuch in purple robe giggled, as cheerfully as a hen that had just laid an egg.
He clapped vigorously and laughed loudly: "The nails are straight and the nails are strong... Oh, all the gentlemen, old and young, who are coming and going, have come to congratulate Mr. Bai Changkong... His girl Bai Lu is virtuous and pure.
, his literary talents are soaring, and his reputation has spread to the ears of the Queen Mother!"
"No, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, we have to add beautiful ladies to the emperor's side."
"The Queen Mother personally named Miss Bailu and added her to Chu Xiu's name book. From now on, Miss Bailu might be a concubine, or even a queen! How splendid the mother's ceremony is to the world!"
Bai Changkong and his sons rushed out covered in sweat.
After hearing what the little eunuch said, they all wanted to die!
