In the space, Wu Bai looked at the extra pavilion outside the study. He walked to the desk, picked up the new books that appeared on it, stepped out of the study door, walked to the pavilion along the stone path, sat on the stone bench, and breathed. With the fragrance from the surrounding flowers and grass, I slowly opened the pages and started to read.

The book is called "Emperors and Queens".

It tells the story of a prince who was feared by the emperor, retreated bravely, cheated to die at the border, and met the general's daughter. The two met and met on the battlefield. After several battles, the two knew each other and loved each other. Become the emperor, the story of the general's daughter becoming a queen.

Wu Bai opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed. He sat up, looked around, and found himself in a simple room.

After confirming that there was no danger around, Wu Bai lay back on the bed and began to receive the memory of the original body.

He was originally the eldest brother of the general judge of the capital, so it is not reasonable to live in such a dilapidated house, but his mother left early, and his father resumed life not long after. He lived under his stepmother since he was a child. Naturally, it is not as expected.

In such an environment, Yuanchen stumbled and grew up, and when Yuanchen longed to find a good husband in the future and break free from this quagmire, his father and stepmother married him to Prince Jingping's mansion for joy.

Naturally, this joy did not come to fruition. The prince died, and the original body became an embarrassing existence in the palace. The servants of the palace never took him seriously, and often made things difficult for him, such as deliberately making him take a cold bath, or Put bugs in his meals.

This kind of torture didn't end until one day Yuanshen accidentally heard the old princess talking to his confidant. He accidentally heard the old princess talking about the fact that the prince was not dead. whereabouts.

Afterwards he was caught by the confidant of the old princess, who took out the poison and poured it on him, completely ending Yuan's life.

After receiving the memory of the original body, Wu Bai sat up from the bed.

Just then someone knocked on the door, Wu Bai asked the door, "Who is it?"

"Master, it's me, are you awake?" A young woman's voice came from outside the door.

"You woke me up even if I didn't wake up." Wu Bai said impatiently.

He heard that the other party was Hanyan, Yuanshen's personal maid, and thought that after Hanyan accompanied Yuanshen to the palace, not only did he not protect the master of Yuanshen, but joined the servants of the palace to bully Yuanshen together, Wu Bai would treat her badly. good face.

Han Yan outside the door could hear the displeasure in Wu Bai's tone, she curled her lips and continued: "My lord, Madam just sent someone to invite you to the hall."

"Got it." Wu Bai said coldly.

He got up and took the coat on the shelf and put it on before opening the door.

Han Yan immediately leaned over and said, "My lord, I heard Madam called you over to choose a husband for you!"

"It's not picking a husband for you, why are you so excited!" Wu Bai glared at her.

"I'm just happy for you!" Han Yan stuck out her tongue and pretended to be playful.

In the hall, Wu Ran said to Wan Yasu with displeasure, "Mother, why are you so concerned about Wu Bai's marriage!"

Wan Yasu sneered: "You really think I'm so concerned about his marriage!"

Hearing this, Wu Ran pricked up her ears and asked, "Mom, what does this mean?"

"I originally planned to keep Wu Bai in the mansion to train him for a few years, but he is full now. A few days ago, my wife asked me about his marriage. I couldn't help it, so I made a list. No one asked me before. That's all, now that someone asks about it, I can't continue pretending to be deaf and dumb."

"Don't look at the people I selected for him. They look good, but there are big problems in them. For example, this prince, although he is the son of the third-rank minister of etiquette, he is a eunuch; and this Mr. Zhang, the elder He is handsome and unrestrained, but it is a pity that he is an inferior; and this Mr. Lu, the son of an imperial merchant, has a rich family, but he has already killed two wives." Wan Yasu said eloquently.

Wu Ran's eyes widened, he gave a thumbs up, and said in admiration, "My mother is the best, she even knows this news."

"Hahaha, although these things are secret, as long as you are willing to pay, you can still find out." Wan Yasu said with a smile.

"Actually, I did this for you." Wan Yasu looked at Wu Ran in front of her and said.

"Ah? What does this have to do with me?" Wu Ran asked in surprise.

"A few days ago, Prince Wang's mother asked me about your marriage, and I spent money to inquire about these things just because I was worried that you would fall into a pit." Wan Yasu explained.

Wu Ran was very touched and said, "Thank you mother for worrying about me."

"You are my son, so I naturally have to worry about you." Wan Yasu said naturally.

"Ma'am, the eldest son is here." A maid came in and said.

Wan Yasu and Wu Ran turned their heads and looked towards the entrance of the hall, only to see Wu Bai walking in slowly.

When they looked at Wu Bai in front of them, they always felt that the other party seemed to have changed somewhere, but when they looked carefully, they still looked the same, there was no difference.

"Madam, is there something for me?" Wu Bai asked lightly.

Wu Ran looked at Wu Bai's expression as if someone owed him money, and immediately said angrily, "There are no rules! You don't even know how to salute your mother!"

Wu Bai ignored Wu Ran, he looked at Wan Yasu and asked, "Madam asked me to come here for what?"

Wan Yasu frowned slightly when she heard this, she looked at Wu Bai, and said, "I came here this time for your marriage."

As she said that, she took out the portrait in front of her and handed it to Wu Bai, and said: "These are the portraits of young masters that are more suitable for you. You can take them back and have a look. If you like which one, just tell me, and I will answer them for you."

"My marriage will be decided by myself, so don't bother Madam to worry about it." Wu Bai refused.

"What's your attitude?" Wu Ran excitedly said, "Mother has worked so hard to choose someone for you, and you're just not grateful, but you dare to let your mother's hard work go to waste!"

"Since you love Madam's hard work so much, why don't you choose one of them as your husband, I believe that you are so filial, you will definitely not reject Madam's kindness." Wu Bai said seriously.

"You!" Wu Ran looked at Wu Bai strangely.

Wan Yasu asked tentatively, "Brother Bai, did you hear what someone said?"

Wu Bai shook his head and said: "I haven't heard anything from anyone." The other party is not worthy of being a human being.

"Then why did you reject the son I chose for you?" Wan Yasu asked in doubt.

"I don't like them." Wu Bai said.

"Brother Bai, you are really too ignorant, how can you say such words like liking." Wan Yasu said helplessly.

"You can say whatever you want, anyway, you don't care about my marriage." Wu Bai was about to leave the hall after finishing speaking.

"Where are you going?" Wu Ran stopped Wu Bai.

Wu Bai casually pushed him aside, and said coldly, "It's not up to you to care about where I go."

After saying this, Wu Bai disappeared around the corner in an instant.

Wu Ran got up from the ground, stomped her feet and said, "Mother, look at him! How dare he touch me!"

Wan Yasu comforted her: "Don't worry, he's just being arrogant for a while. When his marriage is settled, we'll see how he cries!"

"Did mother have an idea?" Wu Ran asked with blinking eyes.

"Well, but this matter can only be done after your father nods." Wan Yasu said.

"What exactly is it?" Wu Ran pestered her and continued to ask.

Wan Yasu leaned close to his ear and whispered, Wu Ran gradually showed a satisfied smile on her face.

Wu Bai left the hall and walked towards the door of the mansion.

Just when he was about to step out of the mansion, Hanyan grabbed him and said: "My lord, you forgot, Madam forbids you to go out, otherwise there will be no food."

"Hanyan, are you planning to find another job?" Wu Bai looked at Hanyan coldly and asked.

Hanyan was flustered by his eyes, and quickly explained: "Young master misunderstood Hanyan, I was just worried that you are hungry."

Wu Bai pulled her hand off, ignored her, and stepped out of the house without looking back.

Han Yan stood there for a while, but in the end she still didn't chase him out, but returned to the hall.

"Ma'am, it's not good, the eldest son has left the house." Han Yan shouted to Wan Yasu's mother and son.

Wan Yasu was shocked: "What did you say? Say it again?"

"The eldest son has left the mansion." Han Yan said again.

"Why don't you stop me!" Wu Ran complained.

Han Yan explained: "The Eldest Young Master insisted on going out, but the slaves didn't have time to stop him, so they had to report to Madam first."

"Don't take anyone to chase him back." Wu Ran said angrily.

"Yes." Yan Yan nodded.

Just when she was about to step out of the hall door, Wan Yasu said, "Wait."

Han Yan hurriedly turned around and asked, "Madam, what else do you want?"

"Forget it, you don't need to chase him, he will come back automatically when the curfew comes at night." Wan Yasu said.

"Yes, ma'am." Han Yanfu stepped back.

On the street, Wu Bai was wandering casually, when suddenly he was attracted by a notice.

Many people gathered around the notice, discussing it.

"The Jingping Prince's Mansion recruits a genius doctor to treat the prince."

"I don't know what kind of terminal illness he has. I heard that many imperial physicians were invited to see him but they were not cured."

"This old concubine is really pitiful. She lost her husband in the early years, and now her son is dying too."

"Go, go, talk nonsense, dare to curse the lord, be careful that I will arrest you all!" the servant of the palace guarding the notice said fiercely.

The common people like to watch the excitement, but they are more afraid of offending the palace, so they quickly dispersed on their own.

Wu Bai looked at the notice, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly had an idea.

He left here, went to a nearby clothing store, bought the clothes he needed, then entered the pharmacy to buy the medicinal materials he needed, and finally bought a beard from an old man on the side of the road.

After buying everything, Wu Bai hid them first, and then returned to Wu's mansion.

"Young master, the master is here to invite you."

As soon as Wu Bai entered the mansion, he was stopped by Han Yan who was waiting here.

He came to the hall with Hanyan, only to see Yuanchen's father sitting at the head with an ugly expression on his face.

"Nizi, kneel down!" Wu Honglang slapped the table hard and said angrily.

"What does father want me for?" Wu Bai did not kneel down, but asked standing up.

Seeing that he refused to kneel down, Wu Honglang immediately grabbed the tea cup at hand and threw it at Wu Bai.

Wu Bai turned sideways slightly, avoiding the teacup.

"Do you still take my father seriously?" Wu Honglang asked angrily.

"Did I take my father seriously? I think my father knows very well. Aren't you asking the question knowingly?" Wu Bai asked.

Wu Honglang naturally understood that Wu Bai regarded him as a father very seriously. Thinking of this, his anger subsided a little. He looked at Wu Bai and asked, "Why don't you agree to your mother showing you the marriage?"

"Father is angry because of this?" Wu Bai asked curiously.

Wan Yasu interjected: "Master is worried about your marriage, and he will only get angry when he is in a hurry."

"That's right." Wu Honglang nodded.

Wu Bai said lightly: "If father is angry because of this matter, there is no need for it. As the saying goes, marriage is predestined, and my marriage has its own destiny. Father doesn't have to be so angry."

"Nonsense. Since ancient times, marriage has been ordered by parents and the matchmaker's words." Wu Honglang said angrily.

"But my mother has passed away, and the fate of my parents is no longer fulfilled." Wu Bai said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Wu Honglang was still angry and said: "I'm not dead yet! Madam is still here, she is your mother!"

"If my father insists on doing this, then I have nothing to say, but if my father and mother forcibly decide on my marriage, then what you will send to the sedan chair will be a dead body. You can think about it yourself!" Wu Bai threatened. .

Of course, the corpse was definitely not his own.

But Wu Honglang and Wan Yasu heard what he said, it was Wu Bai who was threatening his life.

Wan Yasu really wanted to take this opportunity to force Wu Bai to death, but she didn't dare to say it.

She originally planned to use Wu Honglang to get Wu Bai to agree to the marriage, but she didn't expect Wu Bai to be so hot-tempered!

Wu Honglang looked at Wu Bai with anger on his face, and he said angrily, "Get lost!"

Wu Bai turned and left. Suddenly, he stopped, turned to look at Wan Yasu, and with a twitch of his mouth, he said to Wu Honglang, "Father, do you know who the husband candidates Madam chose for me?"

"Of course the master knows." Wan Yasu saw that Wu Honglang didn't want to talk to Wu Bai, so she answered for him.

Just now she had analyzed all the family backgrounds of those sons to Wu Honglang, and Wu Honglang was very satisfied with those candidates.

"In that case, does father know that this prince is Tianxie, that Mr. Zhang is a manly man, and that Mr. Lu beat his two wives to death?" Wu Bai continued to ask.

Hearing this, Wan Yasu's expression froze, her heart was in a bad mood, but she didn't mention this to Wu Honglang.

After Wu Honglang listened, he looked at Wan Yasu in surprise, and asked, "Is what Brother Bai said true?"

Wan Yasu hurriedly quibbled: "Master, don't listen to Brother Bai's nonsense, he heard the rumors from somewhere, and wants to blame me."

Wu Bai sneered, and said: "There is nothing wrong with it, if you say it's a rumor, it's a rumor!" After speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left.
