After Bai Yan learned that someone from the Qu clan of Chu State had come to visit, he learned from Bai Yan's mouth that the name of the person who came was Xiao Gu, and he was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and then he was full of joy.

Bai Yan didn't expect to meet his little uncle here in Xianyang.

Since leaving the Qi Kingdom, his little uncle is his only relative who is away, and in the past two years, Bai Yan has not missed it, but Bai Yan knows that he must not rush to send a letter to contact.

So these two years.

Even though Bai Yan knew that his little uncle was in the Qu clan of Chu State, he never dared to send a letter.

Now that he learned that his little uncle was here, how could Bai Yan not be happy.

However, Bai Yan also knew that the matter of the little uncle must not be known to others, so he learned from Bai Yan that the little uncle came to visit as Qu, and his first reaction was to hold back the excitement in his heart, and after Bai Yu chatted with Xin Sheng for a while and was ready to drink, he refused Xin Sheng's invitation on the pretext of being hurt, and waited for Xin Sheng to leave, before following Bai Yan to the front yard.

In the mansion.

On the way to the front yard, whether it was in the house or in the corridor, it was full of nobles and magnates dressed in silk clothes, young and old, all of whom came to visit from other places.

In the past few days, the courtyard has been filled with many chests, and there are also a lot of gold, silver and jade ornaments.

When these people saw Bai Yan and Bai Yan, they all bowed their hands with kindness, which also made Bai Yan and Bai Junzhu follow behind Bai Yan, and almost took a few steps to make a gift and return the gift.

When he finally came to the main hall, he just went in, and saw that there were people sitting behind more than a dozen tables on the left and right, and among these positions, the ones closest to Bai Zhong, Bai Yan saw his uncle who had been absent for two years at first glance.

"This son is Bai Yan!"

Bai Zhong saw Bai Yan behind Bai Yan, turned his head with a smile, and introduced the three of them, Yan Shou, and Qi Heng.

Looked at.

Xiao Gu pretended to have a look of sudden realization, and got up with Yan Shou and Qi Heng beside him.

"Zuo Shi Xiaogu, meet General Bai Yan!"

Xiao Gu raised his hands and slowly saluted Bai Yan, and when his eyes met the little nephew, he couldn't help but flash a smile, but when Yu Guang noticed Bai Junzhu in a Qin suit next to the little nephew, he couldn't help but take a breath in his heart.

What a beautiful woman!

Xiao Gu was in his heart, and he instinctively exclaimed.

Even in the delicate Shouchun of Chu women, similar to the beautiful woman in front of her, Xiao Gu has never seen a few people, not to mention that the feeling and temperament of the woman in front of her are far from those women, which makes people don't want to, if they can get this woman into their arms, it would be great.

After coming back to his senses, Xiao Gu immediately guessed that the woman must be the famous Bai sisters, but he didn't know if it was his sister or his sister.

Thinking of this, Xiao Gu looked at the distance between his little nephew and the woman, and his eyes became strange.

Others don't know, but he, who is an uncle, knows that his little nephew is not a child of the Bai family, that is to say, he has no blood relationship with the woman, and now he looks at her appearance and follows obediently......

And recall what my little nephew said two years ago, when I was in Xincheng.

She is the Bai Junzhu who has a marriage contract with her little nephew!

！

Attaboy!

！

Xiao Gu was amazed in his heart at this moment, the little nephew actually married such a beautiful beauty, if he was brought out, it would be enough to make other men envy to death.

But right now, Xiao Gu also has a thousand words in his heart that he wants to say to his little nephew, and he also has too many questions.

Two years ago, the little nephew once said that he had a marriage contract with the Bai family, so he got the surname Bai, but what is rumored outside and known to the world is that Bai Yan is a child of the Bai family.

Xiao Gu vaguely guessed that this was most likely the agreement between the little nephew and the Bai family, but he was also very puzzled about what the relationship between the little nephew and the Bai family was.

It's a pity that at that time two years ago, due to the urgency of time, he and his little nephew didn't have a detailed chat.

"Bai Yan, I've seen Lord Xiao!"

Bai Yan saw his little uncle making a gift, and hurriedly returned the salute in front of everyone.

Looking at the appearance of the little uncle in front of him wearing a silk robe and a sword at his waist, the little uncle deliberately revealed that his current identity was the Zuo Shi of the Chu State, which made Bai Yan very happy in his heart.

Zuo Shi is not in the court of Chu State, but in the ranks of the army of Chu State, under the general, after General Pi and before the right leader, he is an official at the level of military division, and he is an important position in the army.

After the ceremony.

Before Bai Yan could speak, under Bai Yan's introduction, he made salutes and returned the gifts to others.

There were so many visitors.

A sentence is not an exaggeration at all.

Xiao Gu saw that Bai Yan, the little nephew, was busy, so he continued to kneel behind the original wooden table, looking at the busy appearance of the little nephew, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After knowing that the envoy of Yan was an assassin, and assassinated Ying Zheng in the Xianyang Palace, he was finally stopped by the little nephew, and Xiao Gu was also startled, and learned that the little nephew saved Ying Zheng, and he was not happy, but he heard that Yan Envoy was smeared with poison in the dagger, and wanted to kill Ying Zheng in exchange for his life before he died, and the little nephew actually suffered the stab for Ying Zheng.

At that time, when he heard the news, Xiao Gu's whole person was stunned, and his head was a little dazed, so he almost fainted.

This is also why when he learned that his little nephew woke up, Xiao Gu couldn't wait to find an excuse and came to the Bai family with Yan Shou and Qi Heng.

Nominally, he was working with Yan Shou and Qi Heng to find out about Bai Yan's situation to see if Bai Yan was really fine, hoping that Bai Yan's injuries were as serious as possible, but in fact, Xiao Gu came to visit his little nephew with worries.

Right now, seeing that the little nephew is safe and sound, Xiao Gu's heart that has been hanging is finally able to let go.

It's okay!

"This kid doesn't know when he will return to Qi Kingdom!"

Xiao Gu knelt behind the wooden seat, looked at the back of his little nephew, and couldn't help but muttered to himself while feeling relieved.

The news of the fiefdom has been heard by the valley.

In the past few days, Xiao Gu's heart has been shocked to the point of numbness, and he doesn't know what to say about his little nephew, and he can't even find a word of praise.

Fief!

In the Qin State, which is more difficult to obtain a fief than other countries, it is still in the Hangu Pass.

For this little nephew who grew up watching himself wear clothes, Xiao Gu only had a wry smile in his heart, and he couldn't say a word.

When I saw my little nephew in Xincheng two years ago, I had a hunch that what my mother said at the beginning might be true, and my little nephew might really be a capable person.

However, two years have passed, and at this time, Xiao Gu just wants to tell his mother in person.

Mother, it seems that even you underestimated Yan'er, this kid!

！

With a bitter smile in his heart, Xiao Gu shook his head.

Recalling the time when he had not left his hometown in Linzi, I remembered that at that time, those villagers, regardless of men, women and children, were laughing at the little nephew, laughing at the little nephew for not having a good time, and now Xiao Gu wants to see what the little nephew will look like when he returns to the village, and will he be dumbfounded.

Although I don't know what the relationship between the little nephew and the Bai family is now, why he still calls himself a child of the Bai family.

But seeing the daughter of the Bai family obediently following Bai Yan's side, Xiao Shi knew that the Bai family had decided to let the woman be the wife of the little nephew.

The same is true.

Xiao Gu thought of those villagers at the beginning, and he was full of sneers.

At the beginning in my hometown, those villagers who used to laugh at their little nephew for not being able to marry a wife will be stunned when they see this Bai daughter in the future.

The women in the village, no, are in the city, but there are hardly any women who can be comparable to the daughter of the Bai family!

I just don't know when Yan'er, the little nephew, is going to return to Qi Kingdom, go back to see his mother, and see his eldest sister.

When the time comes, let the eldest sister see with her own eyes how beautiful her Zhong'er's wife is.

It is estimated that the eldest sister can't believe that Yan'er, who grew up in the village since she was a child, can actually marry the children of the Bai family, who are very famous in the Qin State.

Inside the main hall.

After relieving his heart, after having no worries in his heart, the whole person was much more relaxed, and when he heard Bai Zhong's voice, he turned his head to talk to Bai Zhong.

Yan Shou and Qi Heng looked like they were infatuated, and they would secretly look at Bai Junzhu from time to time.

"I don't know who this woman is?"

Yan Shou finally couldn't help it, and took the lead in asking Bai Zhong.

When Qi Heng heard Yan Shou's inquiry, he couldn't help but hold his breath, and looked at the old man Bai Zhong seriously, although he and Yan Shou were good friends, he was also extremely eager to have that woman one day.

Although Qi Heng also knew that his chances were not great, he did not have a trace of illusion.

"The daughter of my Zhong'er, her name is Junzhu!"

Bai Zhong heard Yan Shou's inquiry, and the old wrinkled face smiled.

Bai Junzhu suddenly heard his grandfather say his name, and turned his head to look at his grandfather with doubts.

Bai Yan also noticed at this time.

"I don't know if I can get married?"

Bai Junzhu didn't look back, but when he turned around, his black hair fluttered, and his beautiful face and watery eyes directly made Yan Shou's heart move, and he looked at Bai Zhong's voice when he spoke, because he was in a hurry, he couldn't suppress a little trembling.

And with Yan Shou's words.

Bai Zhong and Xiao Gu couldn't help frowning slightly, and even Bai Yan, who was not far away, looked at Yan Shou, who was a lot old and still delusional, and frowned.

"There's already a match!"

Bai Zhong smiled lightly.

However, while speaking, Bai Zhong's eyes did not look at Yan Shou, but looked to the side quietly, looking at Xiao Gu.

The Yan clan behind Yan Shou, and the scholar clan behind Qi Heng, although it is not small, it is not a big clan, and now the Bai clan does not talk about the background, that is, Bai Yu, who is a general, and Bai Yan, who is also a general and serves as the lieutenant of Yanmen County, has two people, and the Bai clan is enough to crush the scholar clan behind Yan Shou and Qi Heng.

What can really make Bai Zhong care about is Xiao Gu, who is the representative of the Qu family.

Bai Zhong knew very little about this valley, only that he had been a guest in the Qu family a long time ago, and he had won the trust of the Qu family.

Therefore, the phrase 'already married', Bai Zhong said it to Xiao Gu, and he also hoped that Xiao Gu would have other thoughts, even if it was Qu Shi, it was not necessary.

"Ahh

"Alas~!"

Yan Shou was surprised when he heard Bai Zhong's words, while Qi Heng on the side was full of regret and didn't seem to be too surprised.

Yan Shou looked distracted, and was about to ask, when Xiao Gu's voice suddenly sounded.

"Congratulations to Bai Lao!"

Xiao Gu bowed his hand to Bai Zhong with a kind face.

"Thank you!"

Bai Zhong smiled and returned the salute, and when he saw Xiao Gu's appearance, he was also relieved, glad that the expected trouble did not appear.

However, how did Bai Zhong know that Xiao Gu, who might have some trouble in his eyes, was already dissatisfied with Yan Shou and Qi Heng at this moment, which also laid the groundwork for the misery of the two in the future.

You must know that if Bai Junzhu really marries the Bai family, then it will be counted, Xiao Gu and their Bai family can have a trace of in-law relationship, and their niece and daughter-in-law will be remembered, and anyone will secretly hold a grudge in their hearts.

In the main hall.

At this moment, whether it was Bai Zhong, Bai Bo, Bai Yan, Bai Ping, or even Bai Junzhu beside Bai Yan, it was impossible for everyone to think about it, they had been wondering about the name of the young man before, and they were eager to know the origin of the young man, and now, the elders of the young man appeared in front of them, but they didn't know.

Even Bai Zhong has been talking to Xiao Gu all the time.

An hour later.

Seeing that it was not early, Xiao Gu, who had been talking to Bai Zhong, saw too many people, and never found a chance to meet his nephew secretly, so he turned his head Qi Heng and Yan Shou glanced at each other, ready to leave.

Although it is false that he does not regret it in his heart, Xiao Gu was actually prepared when he came, knowing that there are too many people in the Bai family, and there is no chance at all.

At the moment, Xiao Gu can only think about the long future, and in the future, there will be a chance to meet his little nephew.

When the time comes, I must persuade my little nephew to go home early.

After all, we can't wait until the day when the Qin State destroys the Qi State before returning to our hometown.

In case the Qin State has a chance to destroy the Qi State in a few decades, hundreds of years later, or even the Qin State has no chance to destroy the Qi State at all, it is impossible for the little nephew not to return to his hometown in this life!

Thinking that now the king of Chu is critically ill and will die violently at any time, when the new king succeeds to the throne, coupled with General Xiang Yan in charge, it is impossible for the Qin State to destroy the Qi State, because the Chu State has General Xiang Yan, and it is impossible for the Qin State to destroy the Qi State.

Xiao Gu knows very well that this is the bottom line of the Chu State and the bottom line of General Xiang Yan.

Therefore, we still have to find an opportunity to urge my little nephew to return to Qi Kingdom!

"Bai Lao, we are going to leave for Chu tomorrow, so we will leave first, and if we have the opportunity in the future, we will definitely come back to visit!"

Xiao Gu got up and saluted Bai Zhongji.

Bai Yan, who had been busy socializing not far away, was also a little anxious when he saw this, but there was no way, there were two people from the Chu State clan beside the little uncle, but anyone who showed his intention to be close to the little uncle's father would put the little uncle in danger, and there were too many people at the moment, and there was no chance to leave alone.

Hearing that the little uncle and Bai Zhong said that they would return to Chu tomorrow, Bai Yan knew that this was the little uncle taking the opportunity to talk to him.

I sighed in my heart.

After watching Bai Zhong return the salute, he asked Bai Ping to send his little uncle and his party away, Bai Yan could only stand in the crowd and talk to the scholars while watching his little uncle leave.

.........

Summer is approaching, and the sun is scorching.

May.

In the Linzi City of Qi State, Tian Ding, who had just returned to the mansion from the Qi State Court, and his eldest son Tian Cong, walked out of the carriage wearing the official uniform of Qi State, and just after entering the mansion, he saw a subordinate who saw the two of them and hurriedly walked over.

"My lord, today the Lu family sent a letter, sent by Xianyang of the Qin State, and specially instructed to hand it over to your lordship!"

The servant came to Tian Ding and Tian Cong, knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Xianyang Lu Clan?"

Tian Ding was surprised when he heard the servant's words.

Tian Cong beside her was also a little surprised, the Xianyang Lu clan of Qin State was her mother's clan, but since her mother passed away, although there were contacts, there were few letters.

Because thousands of miles away, Tian Cong has not seen his mother's relatives for many years, only Lu Qi occasionally comes to visit.

And right now, Lu Qi, who had just arrived in Qi two days ago, was in the mansion.

"Lead the way!"

Tian Ding looked at the servant, asked the servant to get up and lead the way in front, and showed him the bamboo slips.

Tian Cong was puzzled, and also followed behind his father Tian Ding, and walked towards the study with the servant.

A moment later.

When he came to the study, Tian Cong saw the servant bring the bamboo slips, and his father took the bamboo slips sent by the servant, opened them and looked at them for a while, then suddenly his eyes widened, his brows were tightly locked, and his face was full of disbelief.

With the tension and puzzle on his father's cheeks.

This is the first time Tian Cong has seen his father, who has always been steady, with such a look.

Looked at.

Tian Cong was even more curious in his heart, he didn't know what was written in the letter sent by the Xianyang Lu family, which could make his father show such a demeanor.

"Father, what's the matter?"

After Tian Cong saw his father put down the bamboo slips, he couldn't help but be curious and asked softly.

However, what Tian Cong didn't expect was that when Tian Ding heard his words, he suddenly turned his head and looked at him with straight eyes.

"My father asked you, was there anything unusual between Yan'er and Bai Yan in Yanmen before?"

Tian Ding looked at his eldest son with questions at the moment.

Thinking of the content of the bamboo slips, a trace of nostalgia and sadness appeared in his eyes, and when he thought of his beloved daughter, he was worried.

"Yanmen, Bai Yan?"

Tian Cong looked at his father with a stunned expression.

Where did the Xianyang Lu family send the letter, why did it involve Yanmen Bai Yan, and the little sister.

Tian Ding saw the appearance of his eldest son Tian Cong, saw Tian Cong's accident, did not sell much, and directly handed over the letter to his eldest son.

"Yan'er gave your mother's jade pendant to Bai Yan!"

Tian Ding said.

In an instant, Tian Cong, who was still puzzled and had just received the bamboo slip, suddenly raised his head in surprise, his eyes widened, and he looked at his father Tian Ding with a shocked expression.

At this moment, Tian Cong even doubted his ears!

"It can't be!

”

Tian Cong's head buzzed, and he opened the bamboo slip with a panicked expression.

In Tian Cong's mind, the little sister did go to Yanmen with her before, but the little sister, like him, was the first time to see the Qin general Bai Yan, in this case, it was impossible for the little sister to give her mother's jade pendant to that Bai Yan.

This is absolutely impossible.

You must know that Bai Yan is a disciple of the Bai family, a general of the Qin State, and he is one of the few famous generals.

"This!"

However, no matter how he denied it, when Tian Cong read the bamboo slips and learned what had happened, he was completely dumbfounded, and looked up at his father Tian Ding at a loss.

It turned out that Yan'er really gave her mother's jade pendant to the ...... Bai Yan!

But why is this matter, in Yanmen, even after coming back, Xiaomei never told him, who is a brother, and he, as a brother, doesn't know anything about it.

What the hell is going on? Why did Yan'er give that jade pendant to Bai Yan?

Inside the study.

Tian Ding looked at the eldest son, who had always been elegant, and now he looked sluggish, and he already knew that the eldest son was probably kept in the dark about this matter.

Thinking of this, Tian Ding's mind came to mind the appearance of his deceased wife, his eyes showed a touch of sadness, sighed, and turned around and walked towards the door.

Tian Cong saw his father leaving and knew that his father was going to look for his little sister, so he hurriedly followed behind with a bamboo slip.
