The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 518 Visit from a family member
Chapter 518 Visit from a family member
"Report to Major General, there is a visitor!"

At this moment, the attendant directly interrupted Bai Jingyi's thoughts.

guest?What kind of guests can we have at this time?
He had asked Li Er and the officials to discuss the matter between Li Er and the princes of the southern vassal state. If so, who else would come to him at this time?

It is impossible for Li Er to make a special trip to see his cold face, and the other ministers probably would not dare to visit him rashly.

Then who else will come to him at this time?

As if she understood Bai Jingyi's displeasure, Hua Mulan looked at the attendant and said, "Who is here?"

"The guests are people from aristocratic families. Because the major general didn't say to let them enter the mansion, they are still waiting at the door."

Those people from aristocratic families... I see.

Bai Jingyi sneered inwardly, if it wasn't for the fact that the princes in the southern vassal states were too out of touch recently, he shouldn't have completely forgotten about these people.

Now the princes of the southern vassal states have just left Chang'an not long ago, and it hasn't been long since Li Er got the evidence.

And those guys from the aristocratic family suddenly came to him at such a time, what is their intention?
The assassination in Chang'an City has just passed, and these life-saving guys finally left their nests for the benefit.It seems that the guys from these aristocratic families still can't sit still.

"Since they are from those families, let them come in."

Bai Jingyi didn't intend to let those foxes hang out for too long, but hoped that they would come to him quickly.

He intends to see what kind of good show those guys from the aristocratic family can put on for him.Anyway, at this time, Li Er and the princes of the southern vassal states are very free, and I happen to be bored.

People of great families just added a little fun to him.

People from aristocratic families came in groups, mighty and mighty, and those who didn't know thought it was some kind of party in the White House.

However, although there were enough people from the aristocratic family, none of them dared to make too much noise. Even if they wanted to speak, they would whisper in their ears, for fear of disturbing Bai Jingyi's cleanliness.

The guests who came today are basically butlers from various families.

However, although there is not much noise, it does not mean that there is no undercurrent surging underneath.

Today, when these people from aristocratic families came to look for Bai Jingyi, none of them came empty-handed, they basically came with all kinds of large and small boxes. Those who didn't know thought that these aristocratic families came here specially to give gifts.

But Bai Jingyi knew that these aristocratic families must have asked him for work, so they made this special trip.

And the people of the aristocratic family have already started to compare with each other.

"Look at that poor family. You can tell at a glance that there is nothing good in the box. They really have the nerve to send that kind of stuff out!"

"If you want me to say, the things we gave are better, high-quality, and rare. How can people from other aristocratic families compare with our gifts?"

"Looking at the poor appearance of those families, it is possible to get into the eyes of the King of Beiliang with just such a gift!"

Although those people from aristocratic families thought that their voices were low enough, Bai Jingyi still clearly listened to the words of those people from aristocratic families.

It seems that they have been preparing for their visit today for quite a long time, and they all came prepared.

Bai Jingyi casually glanced at the people from the aristocratic families below, and then said, "I don't know why you all came here today?"

Bai Jingyi didn't intend to listen to those princes flattering and wasting time here again, so before anyone from the aristocratic family could speak, he spoke first.

The people from the aristocratic family had already brought their compliments to their lips, but when they heard Bai Jingyi say that, they all swallowed their words back.

For a long time no one dared to speak first.

Just when Bai Jingyi was about to lose his patience, an old man from a relatively prestigious family suddenly jumped out and said, "Major General, we didn't come here today for anything else, but to report the number of people."

"Report the number of people?" No waves could be heard in Bai Jingyi's words.

The people from the aristocratic family said that today they came to report the number of people, but he never said that he needed those aristocratic families to count the number and report it to him. So what does the so-called report number mean?
While Bai Jingyi was deep in thought, the old man from the aristocratic family said again: "The number of people is the number of people who came to receive the woolen sweaters—"

Cardigans... that's what they were supposed to be for.

It's no wonder that the dignitaries in these families dare not pay a visit in person, and only dare to ask the housekeeper to represent the family. It turns out that it's because they themselves are not good at talking about this, and they don't want to lose face.

Bai Jingyi was still thinking about how it was possible for people from these aristocratic families to not talk to him about this matter for so long, but this is what happened.

"King of Beiliang, although we are here to report the number of people today, this gift cannot be forgotten, so each of our families has prepared some inconspicuous small gifts, and I hope you can accept them!"

Bai Jingyi waved his hand, and the attendants at the side began to count the gift lists of each family in full view.

The gift was so precious that it even made many members of the relatively small family red-eyed.

Bai Jingyi looked at this generous gift and sneered in his heart.

People from these aristocratic families must have spent a lot of money. It seems that they plan to report a lot of people today.

These old foxes.

After the gift list was counted, the box after box of gold, silver and jewelry was carried directly to the backyard, and the old man said again: "King of Beiliang, can we start registering the number of people?"

As soon as the old man said this, the people of the family below began to gear up one by one.

"You speak first."

Bai Jingyi's expression was indifferent, he couldn't see any sadness or joy, even he didn't show any signs of seeing so many treasures of heaven and earth just now.

The old man was a little apprehensive: "King of Beiliang, the old family has more than [-] people—"

More than ten thousand?
What the hell is this old guy talking about! ?
Is this old guy crazy, dare to talk so casually!Isn't he afraid of death!

The people of the aristocratic and powerful families immediately began to whisper to each other, and the noisy sound continued.

The old man didn't blush and his heart didn't beat, he stood straight in front of Bai Jingyi with a sincere look on his face.

If he had never seen the world, he might have been fooled by his expression.

But Bai Jingyi is obviously not the kind of existence who has never seen anything in the world.

Bai Jingyi frowned, the old man felt that something was going to happen when he saw it.

Unable to live, Bai Jingyi glanced at him lightly, with a bit of displeasure in his words: "Your aristocratic family has 10,000+ people? Why hasn't this king met your 10,000+ people?"

The old man broke into a cold sweat in his heart, and said with force of composure: "The king of Beiliang doesn't know something. The old family is so big and its branches are intertwined, that's why there are so many people!"
