"You really don't care about his life or death?" Qi Zhen asked in a low voice after leaving the house.
"His grandson has just passed the examination to become a scholar. He is too happy to be happy and will not fall down." Bai Banxia said nonchalantly.
Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Just ignore him."
Originally, Bai Banxia didn't want to argue too much with the old man, but the old man wanted to touch the things that the Li family gave to the Zhang family, which offended her.
You can be flexible as a human being, but there are some things you can do and some things you can't.
The two of them delivered the things to Zhang's house without telling the old man's story, so as not to cause trouble to grandma and the others.
"How are Lu'er's parents doing?" Grandma asked warmly.
"It's good, but I'm not used to it. I miss my daughter a lot." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
"Let Lu'er and Tongsheng go over in a few days, and spend some time with Lu'er's parents." Grandma said with a smile.
Li Luer felt grateful in his heart, and thanked Mrs. Zhang and Bai Banxia.
Later, grandma asked Brother Erlang about the exam, and Bai Banxia said he passed the exam. Grandma also specially found a red envelope and wrapped a congratulatory gift for Bai Banxia to take back.
Bai Banxia and Qi Zhen did not stay for dinner. They briefly talked to the Zhang family and then went to Nanling Village.
After changing Mr. Nan's dressing and treatment, she talked about the situation at home and explained for Brother Erlang: "Otherwise, Brother Erlang must have come with us, but now that we are serving wine for him, he really can't get away."
Already."
"Your old man is too impatient." Mr. Nan sighed, but he couldn't say much.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Nan, Bai Banxia and Qi Zhen returned to Baoshan Village.
"After all, I can't bear the hard work of my parents. Let's go back and watch." Bai Banxia complained.
"I will arrange two cooks for you, so you don't have to worry about the kitchen." Qi Zhen said.
Bai Banxia shook her head hurriedly, "No, no, it's too obvious. I'm afraid you will reveal your identity."
"It's okay, I can't make you tired." Qi Zhen said insistently.
"Not at all, just make some simple dishes." Bai Banxia pulled his sleeve, "We are getting married at the end of the month, and it will be a big event. People in the village will understand. Then you can ask the cook to help. After all, we are getting married that day.
I can’t work anymore.”
When Qi Zhen heard the mention of the wedding, a smile appeared on his lips, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
When they got home, they found that the banquet had not been arranged. The old man finally realized that he couldn't arrange it, so he went from door to door in Baishan, saying that the family had not prepared enough and the banquet should be served later.
Bai Banxia secretly rolled her eyes. Look, the old man wouldn't be able to do it without their help. Even if he could direct it, there wouldn't be enough people to do the work.
At the same time, in the imperial palace in the capital, the imperial guards suddenly appeared in the emperor's study room and surrounded it.
The new emperor Qi Guangqing, who was correcting the memorial, raised his head with surprise and shouted: "What are you doing?"
A tall middle-aged man walked out from behind the commander of the Imperial Guards, and slowly took off his hood in front of Qi Guangqing, revealing a slightly thin but angular face. If Bai Banxia was present, he would definitely
You will find that this person is somewhat similar to Qi Zhen.
"Emperor...Brother Emperor, you, you..." The new emperor Qi Guangqing was so shocked that his words were useless.
Qi Guangji sneered, "What am I? Am I not dead?"
"Impossible! I saw with my own eyes that your liver and intestines were severed and your head was chopped off. How could you possibly..." Qi Guangqing came to his senses and hurriedly shouted towards the door, "Here comes someone, escort me!"
Qi Guangji, the late emperor, took a step forward and kicked the desk, "My good brother, you have no one left."
After he finished speaking, a secret guard appeared from behind and threw out a few bloody heads. The heads rolled on the ground, and Qi Guangqing's legs were so frightened that his legs went weak. A closer look revealed that they were all his confidants.
"How is it possible? How is it possible..." he asked overly frightened.
Qi Guangji laughed and said, "I have been trained by my father as a prince since I was a child. How can I not have a substitute? How can you know this?"
The new emperor's eyes widened, "Substitute, how is that possible? Even the injuries on your shoulders are exactly the same as those you suffered when you were a child!"
When he mentioned this, Qi Guangji's face turned dark. He grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
"You still have the nerve to mention the burns I got when I was a child. If I hadn't saved you, how could I have been burned by hot water? How could I treat you, but you want me to die!"
The new emperor was a little distracted and said: "Who doesn't want to be the emperor? Why is the glory and wealth all yours, and why does my father only value you? I have suffered so much, but everything is yours!"
Qi Guangji pushed him down, "Have I ever treated you poorly? When did you not treat me well?"
The new emperor laughed like crazy, "I don't have the throne. Since you regard me as your brother, why can't you give it to me?"
"My father said before his death that your talents are limited and you are not suitable to be a ruler." Qi Guangji seemed to be tired and waved his hand, "Take him down and put him in jail and interrogate him to see if he has any accomplices or treason."
No one can be left alive!"
"yes!"
Qi Guangji picked up the jade seal on the side, looked at it and said, "Have you found the whereabouts of Qi Zhen?"
The leader of the secret guard returned: "It has been found. It is in a village in the northwest."
"Pass on my oral instructions to summon him back to the capital."
…
On the Bai family side, the old man has also given in and spoke softly to Bai Banxia and the others.
"I'm old and confused. I'm too anxious about this matter. I'd better not get involved. You can make arrangements."
The banquet had already been pushed once and could not be pushed again, so Bai Banxia agreed and discussed with Brother Erlang that each table would have eight dishes and one soup, which would be enough for the main food tube.
Although the specifications are not as good as a wedding banquet, it is still enough. Moreover, the Bai family will host a wedding banquet at the end of the month, so it is impossible to do it too extravagantly now.
Brother Erlang had no objection, and asked Bai Banxia to try his best to choose dishes that were not troublesome to prepare, so as to save his family from hard work.
With Bai Banxia's arrangement and everyone's willingness to cooperate, things became smoother. Although the old man was feeling frustrated, in the end it was his face that was saved and he didn't say anything.
The banquet started in the afternoon of the next day, and many people from the village arrived. Tables of flowing water banquets were placed, making it very lively.
Not wanting to show off halfway, He Yunlan and Du Hui came.
"Panxia, we're here to play with you. We don't want your family to be having a banquet." He Yunlan said with a blushing face. She said she was here to look for Bai Banxia, but how could Bai Banxia not know the purpose of her visit?
There were so many people at this moment that Bai Banxia wouldn't tease her, so he held one of her hands and said, "It's better to come by chance than to come by chance. You can just enjoy the banquet hosted by my Erlang brother."
He Yunlan looked happy, "It seems like your family is happy?"
"Yes, my Erlang brother has been admitted as a scholar." Bai Banxia winked at her, good news for you is about to happen.
He Yunlan's face turned even redder, and she tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart. She said happily, "Congratulations to your family."
