Chapter 21: A Bright Future
Bai Qingyan mentioned the Marquis of Dingguo, Qin Lang immediately became transparent, and now the farce of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion is not because of this title.
The stepmother wanted Qin Lang's younger brother to inherit the title, but because of the ancestral etiquette, she couldn't say it clearly, but secretly made a lot of stumbling blocks for Qin Lang, forcing away the teacher who taught Qin Lang, and damaging his reputation. This time, in order to provoke him and the Zhenguo Mansion, he laid a black hand on Bai Jinxiu.
Seeing Qin Lang's face pale and his clenched fists jumping straight, Bai Qingyan knew that Qin Lang understood.
The thoughts of the Jiang family, the mother of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, Qin Lang understands better than Bai Qingyan. But what is the use, there is filial piety pressing, Qin Lang can't show it even if he has three heads and six arms.
Bai Qingyan felt that Qin Lang was not completely helpless, so he said slowly and calmly: "Taking copper as a mirror can be dressed, taking history as a mirror can know the rise and fall, and taking people as a mirror can know the gains and losses." In ancient times, there was Yao Shun Chan Rang, and now why not follow suit? After all...... The Marquis of Zhongyong has now become a false lord, and the prince has great ambitions, so why worry about not earning a brilliant future? โ
"Eldest sister!" Bai Jinzhi looked horrified.
Qin Lang's pupils trembled, and he suddenly looked up at Bai Qingyan, who had a calm face, what did she mean...... It was for him to ask himself to give up the position of the son of the world, how could she say such a terrible thing?!
Over the years, Qin Lang has not thought about resisting and coping, he is openly mixed with the capital city, and secretly he also works hard, wanting to win the first place in the imperial examination. But this is also to stabilize the position of the prince, and he never thought that he could not have this position.
Not only Bai Jinzhi was shocked by Bai Qingyan's words, but even Bai Jintong was shocked when he heard it.
Lu Yuanpeng, who was standing a little farther away with Xiao Rongyan, stared at Bai Qingyan, whose face was sinking like water, and asked Xiao Rongyan in a low voice: "Brother Xiao, can you hear what this eldest girl of the Bai family said to Qin Lang?" Why did Mama Jiang look panicked? Could it be to let Qin Lang and their second girl reconcile? โ
With a very faint smile on the corner of his lips, Xiao Rongyan dusted off the dead leaves that were blown off by the wind and stained on the big bar, and his gestures were extremely elegant: "It is rude to forcibly enter the Zhenguo Mansion. Eavesdropping on the corners of the wall is not a gentleman's doing. โ
Xiao Rongyan didn't expect that Bai Qingyan would have such a pattern and courage.
He looked at the people in high positions in the capital, and there were few who could compare to Bai Qingyan's vision of a daughter's family. It's just that Qin Lang grew up in the splendid pile of the capital, even if he has a good understanding of the affairs of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, it is really difficult to show the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat, I am afraid that Miss Bai's hard work will be in vain.
"The second girl is awake! The second girl woke up......"
The sound of the girl as crisp as a bell came from the backyard, and the entire Zhenguo Mansion seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the cries of "the second girl is awake" came and went.
Bai Qingyan couldn't hide his joy in his eyes, and the heaviness between his eyebrows was replaced by joy.
Qin Lang's throat rolled, and he also stretched his neck to look into the mansion of the Zhenguo Mansion.
"Eldest sister!" Bai Jinzhi glanced back in the direction of the inner house, and grabbed Bai Qingyan's arm with surprise, "Second sister is awake!" Let's go back and see! โ
The maid came all the way with a lantern, and saluted behind Bai Qingyan: "The eldest girl, the third girl, the fourth girl, the second girl is awake!" โ
Bai Qingyan bowed his head, looked back at Qin Lang and said, "It is unfilial piety to not be able to solve the mother's worries, and it is unrighteous to not be able to protect his wife!" The son of the world should know that it is not broken and does not stand! Or ...... Is the prince really for the sake of this false lord, would he rather be an unfilial and unrighteous person? That's all he says, the son of the world is good for himself. โ
After Bai Qingyan saluted, he unconsciously glanced at Xiao Rongyan deeply, and hurriedly walked to the backyard with Bai Jintong and Bai Jinzhi.
Mama Jiang made a gesture of invitation to Qin Lang: "Please sit down in the hall of the two sons, the prince...... Here, please! โ
"Mama Jiang......"
Lu Yuanpeng shouted, and was about to catch up and go to the inner house to join in the fun, but was stopped by Xiao Rongyan: "This is a private matter between the Zhenguo Mansion and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, you and I should not be involved." โ

When the three Bai Qingyan sisters arrived at Qingzhu Pavilion, Bai Jinxiu was leaning on the head of the bed, whispering softly to appease the tearful second lady Liu.
As soon as they entered the house, Bai Jintong and Bai Jinzhi threw themselves on the side of the bed, asking about Bai Jinxiu's physical condition, Bai Qingyan stood by the screen and had mixed feelings in his heart.
Although she knew that Bai Jinxiu was fine, Bai Jinxiu didn't wake up and there was a knife hanging in her heart, and now this knife is removed...... She was finally relieved.
Mama Jiang opened the curtain and came in, and after saluting the eldest princess, she said, "The eldest princess, the prince is already waiting at the Hanging Flower Gate." โ
The eldest princess fiddled with the Buddha beads in her hand and looked at Bai Jinxiu: "Second sister, if you don't want to see him, you won't see him." โ
Bai Jinxiu had a charter in her heart after this catastrophe, her eyes were clear, and she hooked the corners of her bloodless lips and said: "Grandmother, it's not the fault of the prince, I don't blame him, I want to ...... Talk to him alone. โ
Qin Lang and Bai Jinxiu are husband and wife in the end, and there is no disharmony when they get along alone, the eldest princess instructed her daughter-in-law Dong: "You concubines are all scattered, toss for a day, let the children go back to rest, Mama Jiang, you stay, and the prince will go to you for a while to send someone to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to say." โ
"Yes!" Mama Jiang responded.
Bai Jinxiu raised her eyes and saw Bai Qingyan's smile at the screen, becoming more and more beautiful, wanting to reassure her own sister, Bai Qingyan did not approach and smiled, but the corners of her eyes turned red.
For Bai Qingyan, as long as Bai Jinxiu is fine...... Nothing else matters.
Although Bai Jinxiu didn't wake up today, she knew everything outside the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, if it wasn't for Bai Qingyan's words today, she wouldn't know what kind of torture her mother-in-law would have to endure in the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion in the future.
After the ladies of the house appeased Bai Jinxiu, they came out of the Qingzhu Pavilion one after another, and Mama Jiang invited Qin Lang into the gate of the Qingzhu Pavilion.
Bai Jinzhi stood at the door of Bai Jinxiu's upper room, staring at Qin Lang who entered the door with red eyes, clenching the whip behind her back hard, seeing Mama Jiang shaking her head at her, she gritted her teeth and let go of the whip, and when she walked out of the eaves and left, she was still angry and hit Qin Lang with her shoulder.
Qin Lang entered the room and saw Bai Jinxiu, who was sitting at the head of the bed, her face was pale and her breathing was weak, she was ashamed, her lips were spurting and she wanted to ask Bai Jinxiu if she was okay, and she thought that she had never been to see her after Bai Jinxiu was injured, she was extremely stupid, and she suddenly had no face to speak.
It wasn't until the silver frost charcoal from the brazier in the house made an extremely slight explosion that Qin Lang hurriedly shook it to the end, and he couldn't say a word in his choked up.
"The prince is thinly dressed, and he is bothered by Mama Jiang to pick up a big cloak for the prince." Bai Jinxiu's soft voice was slow.
Mama Jiang immediately took off the thorns on Qin Lang's body, put a big coat on Qin Lang, served hot tea, and brought the brazier to Qin Lang, and then took the girls to retreat and guard the door.
After a while, Qin Lang, who had finished talking to Bai Jinxiu, came out of the upper room and said to Mama Jiang: "Qin Lang said goodbye, and came back another day to say hello to the eldest princess and mother-in-law!" โ
After speaking, without waiting for the lantern girl, she hurried out of the Qingzhu Pavilion.
