On this day, Princess Yazhi and Zhan Qi were getting married. Jia Cong went to attend the wedding because he was his godbrother. Gong San also ordered him to carry Princess Yazhi into the sedan chair. Jia Cong was not very willing, thinking about this old man.
For the sake of the couple, I still bear the burden. Beringen dragged his sick body over to see the bride in person. In fact, both parties are the remnants of Prince Yi Zhong, the Zhan family is considered the husband's family, and the Bai family is considered the maternal family.
Beringen sighed: "She should have been allowed to leave our house, but the funeral has just been held at home, and it is not peaceful. It is safer here."
Gong San also said: "The princess likes it here, just follow her wishes."
In the evening, after the banquet dispersed, Jia Cong returned to his residence and had just changed his clothes. Gong Sanyi sent someone to call him over. When he arrived at the old man's house, he saw a little boy of six or seven years old in the house, with eyes full of tears.
Like a rabbit, he was busy asking what was going on.
Gong Sanyi let out a long sigh and ordered someone to take the child out, saying, "This is Beringen's grandson, his name is Bai Zhengming."
Jia Cong blinked: "Are they given to you to raise?"
Gong Sanyi shook his head and said: "That Bai Lun, it's a pity that the princess didn't follow him.
!”
It turned out that when Bai Lun rushed back to Hong Kong that day, his home was in chaos, and the orphans and widowed mother were crying day and night. He was able to make arrangements for his grandmother, aunt, sisters and younger brother, and organize the funeral of the whole family in an orderly manner.
Beringen was already so sad that he almost died. When he heard about this, he was secretly glad that his eldest brother had left a good seed. He then sent someone to call him over and said: "The family is in a big crisis, and I am an old man who can't help but
I won't be able to help you much. You are not young anymore, and now you are the only pillar of your family."
Bai Lun wept and said, "Thank you, uncle, for your teaching. My grandnephew will have a good life, be filial to his grandmother, and take care of his younger siblings."
Bering Endao nodded and said: "This revenge must be avenged! I will go to Taiwan in a few days to borrow Dong Ming to investigate." He then told him a few words and let him go.
Before the funeral was finished, a boy suddenly came one night. He said in a cunning manner that he had something urgent to do and asked to see Beringen. Beringen ordered someone to let him in, and someone recognized the boy as being with Bai Lun. He asked Beringen to withdraw his surroundings.
, knelt down and kowtowed and said: "I was frightened by Master Lun the day before yesterday."
The night before yesterday, Bai Lun was upset, so he quietly changed his clothes and went to a dark kiln for a stroll. Because he was carrying a lot of filial piety on his back, he didn't dare to stay outside, so he secretly came out of the dark kiln before the time came.
Just as he turned out of the alley, a masked man in black appeared from the darkness, holding a simple knife and slashing at Bai Lun.
Bai Lun dodged the first blow on his horse and shouted: "Hero, stop it!"
The assassin ignored him completely, and struck out with his second sword. Bai Lun shouted in a low voice, "Is this hero a member of the King of Chu? You have found the wrong person! The second room is leading the troops!"
The assassin was startled when he heard this. Bai Lun knew that his guess was right and said hurriedly: "My grandfather has offended many people in his early years. I know that, as well as my father and uncle. Although his death was unexpected, he was not unjust. As the saying goes,
When will retribution begin? Our family originally thought that my grandfather was old and had experienced everything in his life, so he had never been to the white people. However, my uncle refused to give up. After searching for a long time, he could not find anything.
We went to the Taiwan government and borrowed a very powerful policeman to come here. The policeman Dong found out the root cause at that time and knew that it was the Chu State. Because we were afraid that our family could not afford to offend the Chu State, I told my uncle that he had not found out.
.Unexpectedly, Jia Lian did not stop the matter, and the matter came out from the woman's mouth. Our eldest brother said that the Chu State could not be offended, and there was no evidence. People cannot be resurrected after death, so they advised him to drop the matter. But he didn't give a damn.
Don't listen! We are all literati, so how can we carry out an assassination?"
The assassin's eyes flickered, he looked at him up and down for a long time, and then he actually walked away!
The boy was so frightened that he fell off his horse early and sat on the ground unable to move. Seeing that the assassin had left, Bai Lun breathed a sigh of relief and kicked the boy twice, urging him to get up and rush home.
middle.
The young man thought about it for two days, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his master was nothing, so he came to find Beringen at night to inform him.
Bai Lun's eyes turned dark after hearing this! The old man knew that what the young man said must be the truth, and he couldn't make it up. He was just thinking that the second wife was now powerful and wanted to join him to gain some benefits. It was just what Bai Lun said.
, although he was forced by the situation and was eager to survive, it was hard to guarantee that it was not what he had in mind. He was discouraged, and after a long time he waved his hand and ordered the boy not to tell anyone else. The boy hurriedly said: "I understand!"
He paid the young boy five taels of silver and sent him out. In the following days, he pretended not to know anything. After the funeral of the eldest son was completed, he had the bodyguard secretly kill the young boy.
Not long after, the princess's wedding was coming. Bai Lingen thought about it again and again, so he brought a young grandson from his family and entrusted it to Gong Sanyi.
Jia Cong frowned and said, "Since we know that the King of Chu will cause trouble for their family, why not be careful and take precautions?"
Gong San also sighed: "Regardless of the state of Chu, it is always true that Bai Lun's mind is not right, and his ambition is not small. Bai Lun is just in case."
Jia Cong thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, let's put this child in the barbarian tribe and raise it for the princess."
Gong Sanyi was stunned: "That's inappropriate. How old is the princess?"
Jia Cong said: "She was not asked to educate her personally! He was still young and was raised by a family named Zhan in the Man tribe. He was only said to be the adopted brother of the princess and was raised by the princess. He was considered as the princess's return to the Bai family.
nurturing grace
.Otherwise, if you were to take care of her in old age, would you have the energy to raise her? Such a young baby is not easy to teach."
Gong Sanyi heard that it made sense, and went to discuss with Bai Lingen the next day, and he agreed. The son stayed in the Barbarian tribe, and Gong Sanyi chose a family to educate him. Jia Cong breathed a sigh of relief. The Bai family was originally the one who caused trouble to his family.
.If Gong Sanyi raises their children, once they have feelings, it will definitely be chaotic in the future.
In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year again, and everything looked peaceful. A flying pigeon came from the capital, and Dai Quan went to Rongguo Mansion. However, he did not see Jia Zheng, but talked to Jia Huan. The Empress Dowager and King Yan
It has been discussed that Xu Xiaosheng will sell two titles in exchange for money to provide daily supplies for the palace.
Dai Quan said: "That monk did not mention this matter to the Empress Dowager after he returned to the capital. Later, he heard about it from somewhere and hurriedly sent a monk to the palace to persuade the Empress Dowager not to act rashly and asked about the idea.
Whose? The Zajia then said it was the Zajia’s idea."
Jia Huan said: "Don't he know that my father-in-law went to the south?"
Dai Quan said "Hey" twice: "The King of Yan doesn't even know, let alone him?"
Jia Huan praised: "My father-in-law is really doing things confidentially and properly."
After the two of them bargained for half a day, the Rongguo Mansion gave six thousand taels of silver to honor the Empress Dowager and the Little Saint. The Little Saint issued an edict to extend the three generations of Dukes of the Rongguo Mansion, and King Yan sealed the imperial edict with a jade seal.
The seal is on its way.
No one in the Rongguo Mansion knew that Waxiangzhu, who had caused the Bai family to be in chaos, had quietly entered the capital.
At that time, this woman was hiding in a small village in the Bai family. Suddenly she woke up one morning and found herself in a carriage with her hands and feet tied up. She had encountered this once before, so she knew in her heart - she was afraid that she would fall into the trap again.
In the hands of Ren Yazi. She had offended many people in the Bai family, but it was no longer possible to guess who sold her.
We walked on the road for a long time, and changed hands several times on the way, and settled down near the end of the year. Many flower houses wanted to buy a few beautiful pink heads before the New Year. Her appearance was rare, so the price for her teeth was extremely high, and she was sold for a long time.
It couldn't be sold. It wasn't until the New Year that a middle-aged man brought a customer who wanted to buy a beauty to show his master to come and see her.
When the man saw her, he blurted out: "Isn't this Miss Ma? I saw you at Mr. Ma's house in the early years!"
Laxiangzhu remembered this man as if he was a wood seller. When she first came to Ma's house, this man came to have a drink. At that time, her godbrother only said that she was a clan girl from her hometown. Thinking of the old things, she couldn't help but shed tears.
Bah bah la fell down and nodded to this person.
The man wondered: "Why are you here? Later I saw your brother again, and he said that you had entered Liu Tong's house."
With tears in her eyes, Waxiangzhu dipped her hands in tea and wrote on the case: "My wife was jealous and sold it out."
The man sighed: "It's like this. It's common among rich families." Then he said to Ren Yazi, "I know her brother. Please don't sell her to others first." Ren Yazi agreed repeatedly.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, the man brought another man to see her. This man's surname was Luo, and he was a staff member in Prince Yan's palace. Mr. Luo was in his forties, and he looked like a scholar.
Sibaolai from the study talked to Laxiangzhu for a long time, nodded, and walked away. After waiting for another two days, someone came to buy her, quietly put her in a carriage, and took her to live in a small courtyard. This courtyard
It was extremely quiet, and there was an old lady to take care of her, and she had bought a lot of clothes and utensils. She had been homeless for so long, and she was settled. However, Mr. Luo thought the word "Xiangzhu" was too tacky, so he changed her name to Ma Pianran.
After the Chinese New Year, Mr. Luo accompanied a young master to visit her and asked her to entertain her well. Although he did not explicitly say who the young master was, seeing Mr. Luo's appearance, it was obvious that he was the son of an important family. Ma Pianran scored twelve points.
I had the strength to accompany the young master. The young master often came over. At first, he only brought a sturdy bodyguard, and later he gradually brought two more young men. I heard the young man calling him "the third... master".
After a few days, the young master became more and more interested in Ma Pianran, and told her: "In a few days, I will take you into the house."
Ma Pianran wrote with tears in her eyes: "Although I don't know the identity of the third master, I have already guessed that he must be a good person. I am a commoner's wife and I am not worthy of the third master."
The young master smiled and said, "I say it's worthy."
!”
The next day, he sent someone to teach Ma Pianran the etiquette in their house. Ma Pianran learned that this son was actually the third son of King Yan Situ Pan! He couldn't help being shocked.
In the years since she was sold by her sister, she has long forgotten that she could have been a crown princess. She has been struggling hard in the Liu family and the Bai family, just to ask for a better life. She doesn't want to go around in circles, but finally wants to
Marry the Tian family! The ambition that had been secretly sinking into the bottom of my heart returned to the distance with a "boom": King Yan's son has a much brighter future than King Chen!
On the other side, because Beringen refused to tell his children and grandchildren what Bai Lun had done, even though he repeatedly warned him to be more vigilant, two sons and one grandson were still killed one after another. But he did not know that if he had not killed the boy that day, he would not have saved all three children.
Will die.
The King of Chu got what the assassin said, and an aide below said: "I have heard that the two families of the Bai family have been fighting for many years, and they have turned against each other a few days ago. Now it seems to be true. There is no need to kill this Bai Lun, he is very useful." Then he made a move.
Xizuo secretly contacts Bai Lun and wants to join forces with him. If he doesn't agree, he will kill him.
Bai Lun said: "Hong Kong was originally created by my grandfather, and their second wife just lived a good life. But they were so proud of each other that they took advantage of me! After they die, the Bai family will be mine. I still want to
I'm doing business with the King of Chu!" Then he agreed.
The young man who informed Beringen was his confidant. When he died, Bai Lun was a little suspicious. He no longer trusted others after contacting the Chu State and only went in and out alone. Because the big house was in decline, Bai Lun no longer cared about face and tried his best to win over others.
The second room owner only wanted to buy the second room, so he didn't dare to fight for it, so he would inevitably look down upon him. The people in the second room asked him to sell it one by one.
After losing three people, Beringen sighed and ordered his third son to quietly return to his hometown with his group of children. Life or death was left to their fate.
On this day, Beringen called the top generals and asked all his adult children to come to the house. He looked at them in order for half a day, except Bai Lun. After looking at them, he said: "I can't live anymore with my old bones."
How long has it been, but none of you can lead an army? When I die, you will have to live in Hong Kong, and you will not have to worry about the military camp." His grandsons looked at each other. They didn't care about the military camp! Because of this
I have been living a prosperous life for many years, and I have never thought about leading an army. Therefore, no one has any objections.
Bai Lingen became more and more disappointed and said: "I would like to hand over the affairs of the army to Princess Yazhi."
Bai Lun didn't know that his servant had informed Bai Ling'en. He secretly thought that his uncle wanted to hand over the military camp to him. He was shocked when he heard this: "She is just a female prostitute! How can I hand over the military affairs to her?"
Beringen said: "Although she is a daughter, she has a noble status. Besides, her husband is a talented man and can help her." He waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind, no need to say more."
Bai Lun hurriedly looked at the cousins and asked for help. Unexpectedly, although they all looked dissatisfied, none of them spoke. She couldn't help but stumbled and said: "Her husband is from the Zhan family, not the Bai family! If so,
If you lose her military power, wouldn't you give up the Bai family's troops to the Zhan family?"
Bai Lingen closed his eyes and said: "Before the princess got married, I had a discussion with the princess Zhan Qi. He is a child of an ordinary family, and he is not worthy of the princess. Now that he has become a noble person, he should be the eldest son of Prince Yi Zhong.
Incense. Zhan Qi has agreed. In the future, his eldest son will be named Situ, and he will recognize the prince as his great-grandfather and offer sacrifices to his ancestors."
One of his grandsons finally whispered: "After all, the soldiers and horses of the Bai family belong to the Bai family!"
Beringen glanced at him: "Can you lead the army?" Then he looked at the others and said sternly, "Can you lead the army?"
No one dared to say anything.
Bai Lun couldn't help but said: "I can lead troops!"
Bai Lun's eyes turned red, then he closed his eyes and said, "I don't know if you can lead troops, but I don't want to give them to you." Bai Lun was stunned.
After a long while, Bai Lingen sighed and waved them out, leaving only a room of generals to discuss matters. He then took out the military talisman and said: "The other half is in the hands of my grandson Bai Zhengming. This son has been given to Princess Yazhi to be raised in the Man tribe.
." All the generals immediately understood that the intention was to entrust the orphan, and they shed tears one after another. Beringen smiled bitterly and said, "Foreign enemies are easy to defeat, but internal rebellion is difficult to prevent." He gritted his teeth and said, "Bailun, don't kill him, just keep him alive.
He can't get anything by keeping his eyes open." (..)
