Son of Heaven Assistance System

Chapter 185
Ji Gu's arrival was like a signal.

It seemed that it only happened for a moment, and the whole Bai family became lively, sweeping away the previous depressive atmosphere.

To be precise, the person who took the lead in coming to the Bai family to convey his wishes was not someone from the palace, but a clan brother of Emperor Jingde.

But even though they are just brothers, the royal Yang family has always had few heirs, especially the lineage of Emperor Jingde, which has been passed down alone for several generations.

Therefore, in the past, in the Yang family, even if it was only between brothers in the same clan, they could often get along as if they were cousins.

And the brother of Emperor Jingde who came to Bai's house this time is the "closest brother" who grew up with Emperor Jingde - An Junwang, Yang Quan, and the only prince currently enshrined in the Qi Dynasty.

Taking the lineage of Emperor Jingde as the direct lineage, Yang Quan's lineage has actually been in the fifth service and is definitely not qualified to be named a county king.

However, Yang Quan and Emperor Jingde were the same age, they were quite speculative when they were young, and they were even closer when they were adults.

In addition, more than ten years ago, Emperor Jingde was assassinated during a tour. It was Yang Quan who blocked the disaster for Emperor Jingde in time and was seriously injured.

Emperor Jingde was grateful for the love of his brother and added the grace of saving his life. In addition, Yang Quan had also devoted himself to assisting him in the court for many years, which eliminated many slander for him.

In the end, Emperor Jingde overcame all difficulties and granted Yang Quan the title of Prince An on the grounds that his life was not long.

At that time, Yang Quan lived up to the expectations of this title, and he survived slowly.

The emperor's order has been issued, and there is no reason to return to the world. The major families and officials in the court can only pinch their noses and recognize this "Anjun King". The only consolation is that this Anjun King is not hereditary. for.

So far, the Qi Dynasty has one more county prince in charge of real power, Prince An.

A county prince who has three completely different powers: the royal family, the aristocratic family, and the court.

And King An's sudden visit to Bai's house without any warning really surprised Uncle Bai very much.

Uncle Bai saluted King An and bowed slightly, with a somewhat respectful attitude, but never humble.

At the same time, he asked solemnly: "I don't know why the prince is here?"

Although he and Prince An are officials in the same dynasty, their respective powers are very different, and there is not much communication on weekdays.

Moreover, before Yang Quan became Prince An, he was just a low-ranking official in the eyes of Uncle Bai. Even though he had a royal background, he was just a side branch; even if he was still in charge of the Yang family, he However, in Uncle Bai's view, Yang Quan at that time was just a spokesperson for Emperor Jingde, just like the relationship between him and Jing Xin.

To put it bluntly, Uncle Bai at the time believed that he and Prince An, who was only Yang Quan at that time, were not in the same cards, and he did not need to condescend to befriend him.

And who would have thought that after this, in just a short period of ten years, the alliance of aristocratic families, which had been stable for hundreds of years, would be gradually disintegrated from within by the Yang family, a royal family that was born out of the aristocratic family.

What's more frightening is that this kind of disintegration is like a frog boiled in warm water, quietly and gradually eroding and penetrating, and by the time Kankan reacts, it is already in danger.

And if it is said that there is no handwriting of King An, who would believe it?
At least Uncle Bai would never believe it.

When Uncle Bai saluted, King An quietly turned half of his body to the side and only received half the salute.

Then, he quickly supported Uncle Bai, and said enthusiastically: "Brother Bai, you are too strict with the rules. You are almost a family, so why bother?"

family?

Uncle Bai's heart skipped a beat.

Thinking of the marriage contract casually promised by Emperor Jingde.

Is this what Emperor Jingde once said to Prince An, or is it?
Thinking of this, Uncle Bai was already full of thoughts, but his face still didn't show at all, he continued to probe, "I don't know what the lord's words mean?"

How could King An not understand the deep meaning in Uncle Bai's words.Simply put, he didn't come to hang out with the boss of the Bai family.

So King Anjun smiled and said bluntly: "The younger brother was ordered to propose marriage today. It is not easy for His Majesty to come in person, so he sent me here."

"Miss Twelfth of the Bai family came from an extraordinary background, and she was born delicate and exquisite. His Majesty wanted her to be the Crown Princess very much. However, His Majesty considered that the two children are still young, so there is only one handbook today, but His Majesty also made it clear that this Be it Na Cai, although the Yang family is a little different now, the rules of the aristocratic family must not be lost, and the six rituals that should be passed are not too small."

Uncle Bai nodded frequently: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful."

Emperor Jingde could have given his will generously, but now he came to propose marriage first, which put the Bai family on an equal footing.

In this way, Uncle Bai is both reassuring and ironing.

As he spoke, King An took out a raft from his sleeve, and placed it respectfully on top of the first case, obviously it was the handwriting.

Then with a gesture of the hand, outside the door, the attendants brought by King An from the palace filed in, all with gift boxes in their hands.

When Uncle Bai first arrived, because of Bai Jitong, he was in a very bad mood, so naturally he didn't have the heart to notice these things, but now that he took a closer look, these gift boxes alone were exquisite and hard to find items, and the value inside them was naturally Worse.

Now, Uncle Bai felt a little more settled in his heart.

At this time, King An Jun continued: "Although it's just a handwritten order, I think it's a happy event after all, and the prince and concubine are more expensive, and I have to trouble the elder brother of the Bai family to alert the elders in the family. It's a good time to get up and talk."

Uncle Bai stroked his beautiful beard with a relaxed and smiling face.

He said: "Naturally, this is naturally... a good thing, besides, although I am the head of the family, my parents are still there, so I should listen to their opinions and give advice to them."

After saying that, he got up and went to tell Jigu to start looking for people.

...

Half an hour later, the Bai family was well-off.

Surrounded by the old man and the old lady, they took the upper seat.

Except for the third son of the Bai family, whose whereabouts were erratic and not found, the other fourth masters of the Bai family and the wives of each house were also present.

The male grandchildren also waited behind their parents, including Bai Jitong, who was beaten up by Bai Jiyuan just now, and stood next to Bai Jiyuan reluctantly.

The moment the eldest lady saw King An, she had already guessed the reason, and she was naturally dissatisfied, but the current world is too complete, and she is not easy to get angry.

The second and third wives also had some guesses, but one of them had no daughter, and even if the other had one, it was impossible, so they all sat dignifiedly, waiting for development.

On the contrary, the four-bedroom couple looked at each other, a little at a loss.

At this time, Prince An stood up and went to the old man and his wife to accuse them.

"I shouldn't have disturbed the uncle and aunt, but there is no precedent for this matter. My nephew wanted to discuss it with his uncle and aunt."

The old man's eyes, which were half closed, slowly raised, and then said: "It doesn't matter."

So King An stepped forward to take the letterhead that he put on the case, and handed it to the old man.

"This is His Majesty's handwriting. I would like to ask Shibo to read it."

The old man took it, unfolded it, narrowed his eyes slightly, and read every word very carefully.

After a long time, he put down the letter in his hand.

He said slowly: "The Bai family has agreed to this matter. Your Majesty is interested."
