Chapter 182: Hitching up with the crown prince

The achievements of the Xu family in the business world have already made the Bai family very jealous. Now that Xu Huaiqing has won the tribute again, the Xu family is likely to make a difference in politics, and the Bai family has felt the crisis.

After everyone's discussions, Master Bai finally decided that before Xu Huaiqing took revenge on the Bai family, he would win over the powerful people in the court, which could be regarded as finding a backer for the Bai family.

"Now the government and the opposition seem to be calm, but in fact, there is an undercurrent. The battle for the throne may break out at any time, and if you stand on the throne at this juncture, you must keep your eyes open, otherwise it is likely that the Bai family will become a victim of the battle for imperial power. ”

Hearing this, Master Bai nodded thoughtfully, "Then according to what you see, which prince's power should we make friends with?" ”

"In terms of succession and longevity, today's princes are the first choice. What's more, the prince has done several errands recently, and his reputation in the court is quite high. ”

Thinking of this, Master Bai personally came to visit the powerful Gao. Official. He was not stingy with the assets of the Bai family, and used heavy money as a gift to cling to the powerful.

Now that the crown prince is in power, in the eyes of Master Bai, the prince is the most likely heir to the throne. In order to seek a long-term backer for the Bai family, the people he befriended were all henchmen of the prince.

After many inquiries, after knowing that Lord Wang was a popular person in front of the prince. Master Bai immediately prepared a generous gift and went to Lord Wang's mansion.

In the name of the crown prince, this king did not take bribes. In the face of Master Bai's thickness, he didn't even frown, but just casually ordered his subordinates to enter the treasury.

"The Bai family is in Fenchuan County, it is a well-known family, Wang should have come to visit a long time ago, but he didn't expect to be preempted by Brother Bai and sit." Lord Wang said in an official tone to Master Bai, "Sit, come, serve tea." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, my lord, Bai came here this time, if you want to discuss it, I don't know ...... adults"

"Ugh." Before Master Bai finished speaking, Lord Wang raised his hand and interrupted him, "Let's only talk about private matters today, let's taste my newly arrived Biluochun." Brother Bai, don't let me down. ”

The other party said this, obviously he didn't want to match, and Master Bai naturally didn't want to say anything more, and his face was blue and white for a while. After a long time, he stiffened out a smile, "What the adults said, what they said." ”

Picked up the teacup and took a sip, the tea is good tea, but unfortunately Master Bai has something hidden in his heart, and he doesn't have any thoughts, the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while and then left.

After the carriage drove some distance, Master Bai spat fiercely, "Phew! What the hell! It's just a dog's leg, if it weren't for the prince, who would take care of you. ”

Master Bai didn't realize that now he was working hard to be this dogleg.

The carriage slowly drove into the Bai family, and as soon as Master Bai got out of the carriage, a group of people surrounded him.

"Master, what's going on, did Lord Wang introduce you to the crown prince?"

"Yes, yes, did Lord Wang receive the gift? What did he say? ”

The buzzing noise made Master Bai have a headache, "Enough!" Noisy and noisy, what a system! ”

Seeing that Master Bai was angry, the clansmen around him suddenly lost their voices, and brushed to make way for Master Bai to walk.

Looking at this group of people who saw the wind and steered the rudder, the green tendons on Old Man Bai's forehead jumped suddenly. If this Bai family hadn't had him to support it, I'm afraid it would have been annihilated by other families long ago.

After snorting coldly, Master Bai returned to the study with his hands behind his back and a heavy face.

Although the path on Lord Wang's side is impassable, there is no other way for the Bai family to go now. The other party will accept his generous gifts, which can be seen that he is also greedy for money, as long as he spends a lot of money, he is not afraid that the other party will not let go.

After making up his mind, Master Bai went to visit Lord Wang every once in a while, and every time he would bring a box of rare treasures. The king accepted all of this, but did not mention anything about the introduction.

On this day, Master Bai, as usual, prepared a generous gift to visit the Wang's mansion. After entering the door, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. The original lord did not do it to the king, but a young man.

The young man was magnificent, and at first glance, he was either rich or expensive, and the old man Bai greeted the lord Wang who was under him, and looked at the young man quietly.

After discovering the dark lines on the other party's cuffs, Master Bai's pupils shrank slightly. That's a dragon pattern!

Looking at the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, except for His Majesty, there is only the crown prince left who can be decorated with dragon patterns.

Although the thoughtful old man Bai had already understood the identity of the person in front of him, he still pretended to be at a loss, "Lord Wang, I don't know who this is......"

"Master Bai, this is His Royal Highness the Prince." Lord Wang was worried that Master Bai would make a faux pas, so he hurriedly introduced.

I haven't received less filial piety from others before, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always turned a blind eye, why did he personally ask this time, could it be that behind the Bai family, what other backers are there?

Lord Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked at the white master under his eyes with fear.

After confirming the identity of the person in front of him, Master Bai didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly saluted, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I am the head of the Bai family." I have long heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise and powerful, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary. ”

Old Man Bai's words made the prince very useful, "The old man laughed, the reputation of the Bai family, even I, who lived in the palace, were like thunder. I should ask the old man to take care of me. ”

"Where is the prince, compared with the prince, our Bai family is like fireflies to Haoyue, and they can't be said at all. But if the prince said a word, how dare Bai not raise the strength of the whole clan to repay the prince's kindness. ”

The prince has long heard about the Bai family. Although the Bai family has gone through various changes, it has declined. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and if the Bai family helps, it will have a better chance of winning when fighting for the throne in the future.

He didn't care so much about the Bai family, but the intricate relationship behind the Bai family was worth his consideration. For so many years, Master Bai has devoted himself to making friends with powerful people and has had contacts with many officials in the capital.

At the banquet of the daughter of the Zhao family before, he also met Miss Bai Family, which shows that this Bai family is not simple.

"Old man, if you don't dislike it, can you come to the house with me?" The prince had the heart to win over the Bai family and invited Master Bai to his house to talk.

Hearing the prince's words, Master Bai was immediately flattered. He originally wanted to catch the line of the prince, but where would he refuse, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "His Royal Highness the prince is very loved, how dare Bai refuse?" To be appreciated by His Royal Highness is really a blessing for three lives. ”
