Chapter 398

"Heh! The attitude of admitting mistakes is positive. If you know you are wrong, you will rush over!? Do you still want this face?" Wei Huayin pinched his face angrily.

Bai Yuran breathed in pain, looked at her pitifully, "He owes a beating!"

Wei Huayin saw him looking for a beating, and was so pitiful, so she gave him a helpless look, "Sit here and wait!"

Seeing her go out, Bai Yuran smiled and sat obediently waiting for her.

Chen Yu and Hou Zhen glanced at him quietly, seeing that his eyes turned cold, they immediately retracted their eyes, saluted, and left.Master looking for this beating is like asking his wife to invite pets!
Wei Huayin came over with the medicine box, cleaned his wound, applied ice, and applied medicine, "See how you go out tomorrow!"

"I'm Muxiu!" Bai Yuran hurriedly explained.

"Then what about the rumors that you were fighting with the King of Tang?" Wei Huayin asked him squinting.

Bai Yuran rolled his eyes guiltily, and finally landed on her, "Yin Baoer~"

"Don't call me! Think for yourself!" Wei Huayin gave him a blank look, turned and went out.

Bai Yuran got up and followed her.

Liu Qingjiang and Fan Baoan were still at home, waiting to celebrate.He had to come forward to entertain.

Seeing him come out with this face, both of them were extremely shocked, and stared at him in disbelief, "What's going on with your jade dyeing your face?"

"Oh! A little injury, it's okay!" Bai Yuran replied indifferently.

"Who did you fight with? You... you are now a third-rank official, a servant of the household department, and your appearance is also an appearance. You are like this..." Liu Qingjiang wanted to reprimand him, but he glanced over casually, remembering that his official position was higher than his own. Too high, choked on words, and couldn't help reminding, "You will affect your reputation like this!"

Fan Baoan was also extremely curious. When he heard the secret report from his subordinates just now, his eyes were very menacing, but when he went out for a trip, he got into a fight with someone, resulting in bruises on his face.

"Don't worry about him, it's a convulsion!" Wei Huayin rearranged some dishes and let them celebrate by themselves.

Mian Mian came over during meal time, and seeing her father's face was bruised, they all gathered around, "Dad! Are you being beaten?"

"You seem excited?" Bai Yuran reached out and nodded her head.

"No! I just saw you being beaten, and my mother must be very distressed!" Seeing that he was fine, Mianmian smiled.

The three little ones also pestered him to ask who hit him, the younger brother poked the wound, the older brother yelled to hit the person who bullied his father, and the fourth little one wanted to give him a whimper.

Seeing how happy he was with the child, Liu Qingjiang looked at Wei Huayin embarrassingly.

Bai Yuran noticed it, and glanced over sharply, "What are you doing?"

Apart from studying, Liu Qingjiang is a bit rigid in his daily life, and he is not very good at explaining customs, "No! No!" Even though they are both close, he and Bai Yuran are not close enough to say anything.

Wei Huayin also thought that he was feeling a little uncomfortable seeing that their family was all there, and asked Mianmian and the younger ones to congratulate Uncle Biao's high school with tea instead of wine.

"Congratulations to Uncle Biao's high school! The official career is prosperous! The future is bright!" Mianmian stepped forward to be the representative.

"Good!" Liu Qingjiang finished his drink with a smile.

The three little ones also brought wine to him, "Congratulations to Uncle Biao's high school!"

"Biao uncle drinks!"

The whole family had a glass of wine, Liu Qingjiang drank a few glasses of wine, and soon passed out.

Fan Baoan looked a little embarrassed.

Mian Mian poured him another three cups, "Uncle Biao! After drinking these three cups, the past, present and future, the road of scientific research and official career will be smooth!"

Fan Baoan looked at Bai Yuran, he raised his eyebrows, Wei Huayin was peeling prawns for three little milk buns, and drank three glasses of wine accordingly.

"Three more cups to my uncle! Three years later, I will be named on the gold list! Feel proud!" Mian Mian poured three more cups.

Fan Baoan couldn't refuse, so he drank three more glasses.

Soon passed out too.

A table of dishes is not very good.

Bai Yuran directly called for someone to send the two of them away.

Wei Huayin coaxed the little ones to fall asleep after washing them. Seeing that he was applying ice to his wound again, he reached out and took an ice pack to help him, "This is a shame!"

"Someone is watching our house!" Bai Yuran whispered.

Wei Huayin paused, realizing that not only Tang Fengchu, but also Emperor Renxuan should have sent experts to watch them, and Bai Yuran's whereabouts may be under his nose.

The news of the fight between the two was quickly sent to the palace. Emperor Renxuan took the letter and thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't believe it. "The king of Tang is really coveting the beauty of the Wei family, and he still doesn't give up? Why did he fight with Bai Yuran?"

Li Side replied cautiously, "Your Majesty! This King Tang traveled abroad before, and he stayed in Ning'an County for a long time. The Wei family was abandoned by the Bai family before, because the dowry property was troubled by the government, and King Tang came forward to help. However, Mr. Bai resigned from office and returned to his hometown, fell out with his family, severed ties, and the two husband and wife reconciled."

Emperor Renxuan snorted, picked up the ocarina Tang Fengchu had given him, and played it while thinking.

Li Side didn't dare to say that he made the wrong choice. It's been so long, and the Bai family doesn't seem to have the heart or the ability to rebel.Just take the finger back, don't announce this matter to the outside world, give Bai Yuwen an official position, and send his family away!As for Bai Yuran, even if he stared under his nose, he couldn't make waves!

Now, the Bai family didn't get what they wanted, and Bai Yuwen also failed the ranking. I'm afraid there will be trouble.There is also Bai Yuran stuck in the front, the key is to save Sheng Jia, a hero who has made great contributions in the battle, it is already puzzling to be neglected, and dealing with him will cause those people to resent.

Emperor Renxuan couldn't remember, what kind of talent did Bai Yuran's wife have?Tang Fengchu thought about it for so long?I have always refused to marry a wife and accept a concubine!
After thinking for a long time, "Call for Beauty Ye!"

Li Side glanced at him and responded respectfully, and went to deliver the decree.This Ye Meiren, I heard that she said some good things about Bai Yuran and his wife, but the effect is just...
Although Ye Pianpian entered the palace, the number of times she visited the saint and served her bed was pitifully infrequent.But in the last two summons, she would always ask her about Bai Yuran and the Bai family.So she dresses up exquisitely every day and waits.Hearing that Emperor Renxuan summoned him, he changed his clothes and followed the order to the eunuch to face the saint.

Now her role in front of the emperor is only used for Bai Yuran and Wei Huayin.After the Bai family's matter is settled, if she doesn't play a role, she will be forgotten afterwards!There are too many beauties in the harem, each with their own strengths, talents, and family backgrounds. If she has no advantages, she will be overwhelmed soon!
"Pianpian has met the emperor! Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Renxuan's eyes fell on her, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ye Pianpian smiled, looking at Emperor Renxuan with faint admiration in her smiling eyes.

Emperor Renxuan looked at her hidden and shallow emotions. He had seen this kind of eyes in the eyes of too many women in the harem, but she was different. It's different, I suddenly wonder if the reason for her entering the palace is because of Bai Yuran?
His doubtful eyes were a bit obvious, and Ye Pianpian's heart was full of alarm bells, "Is the emperor's dinner ready? The concubine made wild vegetable soup, your majesty, would you like to try it?"

When Emperor Renxuan and Bai Yuran concealed their identities to avoid assassination, they suffered a lot. The pancakes with mixed noodles with wild vegetables were delicious with a bowl of broth.Thinking of Bai Yuran reminding him not to get close to women during the march, he presumably prevented Ye Pianpian from entering the palace as a servant.But Ye Pianpian seemed to speak for Bai Yuran in a nonchalant way.

"What wild vegetable soup did you make?" He asked.

Ye Pianpian stood up with a smile, "Let the concubine serve it."

Bai Yuran once made noodles with mixed wild vegetables and beef jerky. When Emperor Renxuan was hungry, he could drink two big bowls.

When the soup was served, Emperor Ren Xuan recognized it as wild vegetable noodle soup at a glance, but there were no noodles. His eyes fell on Ye Pianpian's outstretched hand, and he had a sharp insight for a moment.

"Rough tea and light food are nothing compared, it's rare that the emperor actually gives face to the concubine! The emperor quickly taste it, can you eat it?" Ye Pianpian urged with a nonchalant smile.

Emperor Renxuan drank it slowly, it was very similar to the wild vegetable noodle soup he had eaten, and he couldn't help but think of it as the most difficult and special experience in his life. Thinking of Bai Yuran's talent and wit, "Who are you and Bai Yuran's wife? A boudoir friend?"

Ye Pianpian's eyes moved, and she replied with a smile, "I met her when my concubine and younger brother went to seek refuge with my uncle. I can be regarded as a good friend. I am in charge of embroidery in her cloth shop."

Emperor Renxuan didn't care about her business, "When the Wei family was abandoned by the Bai family, I heard that the king of Tang wanted to marry him?"

Ye Pianpian raised her eyes in bewilderment, "This... the King of Tang has come forward to help and asked to marry me. I don't know about this concubine! His Highness the King of Tang actually..."

But the flicker in her eyes made Emperor Renxuan a little sure that Tang Fengchu and Wei Huayin must have entanglements, or else when he gave the ocarina, Wei Huayin was thrown out of the gate by someone, and Bai Yuran got him into a fight when he heard the news.

"Your majesty, why are you interested in these rumors? Is it because the concubine's wild vegetable soup is not good? Or is it too farm-like, making the emperor think you are sitting on the ridge of the field?" Ye Pianpian asked with a smile.

Emperor Renxuan laughed, "I have the feeling of a farmer!" Gossip?That's it!
That night Ye Pianpian stayed to serve her bed.

The next day after the court, Emperor Renxuan summoned Bai Yuran.

Mu Xiu was at home, and Bai Yuran, who was relieving his injuries, heard the order and looked at his face. Those scars could not be removed overnight, but they became more conspicuous after applying ice. palace.

Wei Huayin watched him go out worriedly, the emperor suddenly called him into the palace, it must be the result of the finger-pull.But is this result good or bad?

Bai Yuran was also worried. There was Tang Fengchu outside, Zhen Tai and those officials who were jealous of him when he was promoted, and Ye Pianpian who held a grudge in the harem!Emperor Renxuan suspected that his seeds had taken root no matter what he did.

Li Side came out to summon him, and secretly gave him a look.The situation is fine.

Bai Yuran didn't dare to take it lightly, Ye Pianpian wanted to frustrate him, Tang Fengchu wanted his life, the feeling of saving his life was long gone in Emperor Renxuan's heart.

Entering the imperial study room, I greeted respectfully, "My minister will see the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

Emperor Renxuan looked at him for a while, "Let's be flat!"

When he gets up, look around his face, "What's going on with your face?"

Bai Yuran lowered his head again, "Go back to the emperor! I accidentally competed with His Highness Tang Wang and lost."

"Oh? Are you sparring with King Tang? Why did you get hit in the face? I know you are good at martial arts!" Emperor Renxuan asked knowingly.

Bai Yuran looked as if he couldn't lift his head, "I told you not to use martial arts."

Emperor Renxuan looked at him for a long time, "Do you know why I haven't seen you these few days?"

Bai Yuran immediately knelt down again, "Your Majesty! Weichen's family has lived in the countryside for many generations, and they are all peasants. As far as we know, they only eat three meals a day. There is no one in the family who is successful! And that finger. I saw it when the tomb was being repaired, and I saw it on the portrait of Emperor Taizu before, so my minister said "

"You knew about finger pulling before?" Emperor Renxuan asked.

Bai Yuran looked up at him, and nodded seriously, "Yes! That's why I resigned."

Emperor Renxuan was silent.

He didn't ask, and Bai Yuran didn't dare to say too much.

After being silent for a long time, Emperor Renxuan asked again, "Then what do you think of Chang and the crown prince's ascension to the throne?"

Shi Jichang and the prince left a letter to escape from the palace on the day they ascended the throne, refusing to claim the title of emperor, and disappeared into the vast crowd ever since.But if there is no one to help, and the palace is guarded at all levels, how can he escape from the palace as a prince who will be enthroned the next day?
Emperor Taizong had no choice but to succeed to the throne, but was criticized by later generations. He assassinated the prince Changhe and created the illusion that the prince left a letter to escape. .

But there are still rumors that Emperor Taizong of the Southern Jin Dynasty seized the throne by killing his brother, and he used the worst and most ridiculous excuse!

Who would run away on the eve of ascension to the crown prince?Refuse to be emperor?How many people squeezed their heads and wanted that dragon chair, but he gave it up when it was within easy reach, who would believe it?
The whole country has been searching for more than ten years without stopping, but there is no real news. Instead, there have been many uprisings and rebellion in his name.

Knowing that he would definitely ask, Bai Yuran replied carefully, "Your Majesty! I have only read about the matter of Chang and the crown prince in the history books, but I have not seen the real truth with my own eyes." Seeing the change in his eyes, He continued, "I heard from Weichen's grandfather that great-grandfather likes to tend the crops very much, and is always happy when he is with the villagers. Apart from three meals a day, great-grandfather doesn't seem to have any worries and is very at ease."

Tell him that Prince Changhe back then was just an old man who liked farming and was content with a simple farm life!It was his own decision to give up his plan to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor!And sincerely, very satisfied!
Originally a puppet prince, he was controlled and restrained for 20 years. What he wanted was probably not the throne from the beginning. The only thing he wanted was to escape from the palace!Escape from the center of power disputes and be a farmer with idle clouds and wild cranes!Even if you worry about food and clothing for three meals a day, it's better than carrying your head every day and being killed without knowing it, and you will be notorious as a worthless wretch through the ages!Not all princes are committed to ascending the throne and becoming emperor!
Emperor Renxuan's eyes were unpredictable, "Then why did you save me?" Others were in the north, and it was impossible to save him by such a coincidence.

Bai Yuran smiled lightly, "The emperor is the emperor of the Southern Jin Dynasty! He is the emperor of the Southern Jin Dynasty! Saving the emperor is instinctive!"

Emperor Renxuan's complexion changed slightly.

"Who did you hear, Your Majesty, that this humble minister, like His Highness Tang Wang before him, has the intention of treason?" Bai Yuran asked with a smile.If you have doubts, he can't be tired by himself!Tang Fengchu's actual actions are much brighter than his!

Emperor Renxuan burst out laughing, "Then what do you think about the Southern Jin and Jin kingdoms uniting to destroy Liao?"

This is still a secret matter in the court, even though Bai Yuran is a third-rank servant, he has not yet participated in this matter.

Bai Yuran frowned, and tightened it tighter, "I'm afraid I can't agree! The emperor should know the strength of the Southern Jin Dynasty! The emperor has seen the strength of the Northern Liao Dynasty. But what about the Kingdom of Jin? The most important thing in the Southern Jin Dynasty is The common people rest and recuperate, even for two or three years. There is still military training, don’t hide it from the emperor, if the matter of destroying the Liao is rushed, I’m afraid it will backfire and lure wolves into the house!”

"Which wolf are you talking about?" Emperor Renxuan asked.

"Jinguo!" Bai Yuran said directly.

Seeing if he didn't believe it, Bai Yuran knelt and took a step forward, "Your Majesty! The Kingdom of Jin is not stronger than Beiliao, and it's not like people say that it drinks blood, but how many cavalry troops does the Kingdom of Jin have? Does the Emperor know how many people the Kingdom of Jin has? Cattle, sheep and horses. Can the Emperor know? What is the output? What are the forces of the Jin Kingdom? What is the relationship with the Northern Liao Dynasty? The Northern Liao Dynasty has a large area of ​​fertile land in the Northeast Plain, and it still covets the prosperity of the Southern Jin Dynasty. What about the Jin Kingdom? How to determine the true intention of the Jin Kingdom? How to determine whether the Northern Liao and the Jin Kingdom have joined forces to destroy us in the Southern Jin Dynasty!?"

Emperor Renxuan who asked these words was speechless, his sword eyebrows were tightly knit together, his face was dark, after a long time, "You back down!"

Bai Yuran looked puzzled, seeing his order, he had no choice but to retreat first, "Retire!"

Ask him about the matter of the Northern Liao Dynasty, what about the matter of pulling the fingers?
