I went to the temple after traveling through time, and he turned out to be a monk!

The marriage was discussed by several people in just a few words. In order not to attract Beichen's attention, they could only arrange it simply and secretly.

Zhuo Yao wanted to see Bai Zhi that day and tell her clearly, but Bai Zhi refused.

Zhuo Yao had no choice. He agreed to use these cities as betrothal gifts, so he set out overnight to meet up with Song Qian. He planned to capture these cities quickly with the minimum number of people, but he had to do it secretly.

Bai Zhi's heart was in a mess. She felt that this Black Tiger was not willing to marry her, and she was the one who forced her into a marriage by deceiving him.

There was also Meng Wenjing's mother. She hid from Mrs. Meng for several days, but she was finally caught.

Mrs. Meng appeared on the road she had to pass to do errands. A huge carriage stopped in the middle of the road. "Lord Baixue, I wonder if you have time to talk to me, an old woman?"

Her attitude was not as aggressive as expected, but rather graceful and calm.

It was early winter, and Mrs. Meng had a stove set up in a pavilion on the outskirts. She was accompanied by a small table and various kinds of food. It took half an hour just to prepare.

Until the water in the small teapot bubbled, the servants began to make tea for the two of them. The best tea leaves were put in the box and wrapped in a piece of fine silk. When the silk was opened, there was a lot of white tea between them. You can smell the refreshing aroma of tea.

"Wait a minute." Mrs. Meng suddenly said, "Make perilla tea for Miss Bai."

Bai Zhi didn't know why she wanted to make perilla tea, and frowned slightly.

Mrs. Meng keenly caught the change in Bai Zhi's expression and smiled faintly, "Girl, don't be surprised. This perilla tea is anti-abortion tea. I had difficulty conceiving before and was careful about everything, so I gained some experience. Just drink it, girl." Having a baby won’t do me any good.”

Bai Zhi felt slightly relieved.

After the tea was brewed, the whole pavilion could smell the aroma of tea, and the two of them took a sip.

Mrs. Meng pushed the snacks in the delicious food box in front of Bai Zhi, "This month is the time when the girl is happy. I asked my servants to prepare these snacks carefully. They are not greasy and just right."

"Mrs. Meng, you don't have to worry so much. Baixue's life is rough, and simple tea can handle it." Bai Zhi was still a little wary.

Mrs. Meng chuckled softly, smiling in a polite manner, "Girl, there is no need to be so nervous. I am not a heinous evil person. I think Wenjing was afraid of me, which caused you to misunderstand me."

"Madam, I misunderstood. That's not the case. It's just that I feel sorry for Wenjing." Bai Zhi smiled reluctantly.

"Girl, there is no need to feel guilty. I know everything about you and Wenjing. There is nothing wrong or right. You are not each other's lovers. It is just fate. The girl did not choose Wenjing. This is the wisest thing. Decide."

Bai Zhi lowered her head slightly, "Exactly."

Bai Zhi's attitude reassured Mrs. Meng little by little, "Since the girl is open-minded, it will be easy to handle. The purpose of my trip is to take Wenjing away, but he has to wait for you to get married before he is willing to leave. I can't help it, please." Girl, please don’t see him again for this period of time, and we will leave after you get married.”

"Understood." Bai Zhi answered very simply, without any sloppiness.

Mrs. Meng was surprised by her calmness, "Girl, you are so cold-hearted. It's a good thing you didn't choose to ask Jing. Otherwise, you would have asked that stupid head of Jing. I really don't know what to do!"

"Well, Wenjing is just a simple-minded person, and he is far from being called stupid."

Hearing such words, Mrs. Meng's whole aura softened, "He is stupid. He has been deceived a lot since he was a child. The master used to feel sorry for him and gave him all kinds of gold, silver and family heirlooms. It's good for him, but he was completely deceived."

Bai Zhi could feel Mrs. Meng's overflowing love for her son, and unconsciously said, "What happened next? Did you still give him a baby?"

"If you don't wear it anymore, if you give him such a valuable treasure, your family's wealth will be defrauded. Later, I didn't give Wenjing any money, and I didn't let him take care of the family's business. I gave everything to his brother. Sister, Wenjing doesn’t have to do anything, he can just live his whole life like this."

Bai Zhi was a little surprised by these words, "Did Madam deliberately prevent Wenjing from taking charge of family affairs? But this will leave him without the ability to protect himself..."

Mrs. Meng laughed after hearing this, "Haha, he doesn't need to be able to protect himself. Their brothers and sisters will keep him safe for the rest of his life."

Bai Zhi was a little in disbelief, "But...is this reliable?"

Mrs. Meng raised the corners of her lips lightly, with an arrogant look on her face, "For this reason, I treat every child in my family as my own, and every concubine as my biological sister. Even the master once wondered why I treated them so well. Like. All because of Wen Jing."

No wonder Meng Wenjing was raised like this! Although Bai Zhi felt that it was inappropriate, she felt that this was not a rare kind of luck. She could not even refute it.

"Girl, although Wenjing has been better in the past two years, there were about five times before he was eighteen years old that he couldn't wake up and was so breathless that even gods and Taoists couldn't save him. So he doesn't need anything, he just needs to live. "

"Girl, you are definitely not his lover. You are an extremely restless person. You want to fight for power, but he has no chance of it! Whether he blames me for being cruel or not, there is only so much I can do!"

"Miss Bai, do you understand what I mean?"

The strong threat in her tone was not deceptive, and the reason she used was not her family background, but Meng Wenjing's life. This reason fundamentally made Bai Zhi's feelings unable to gain a foothold.

Bai Zhi took a deep breath and said, "I understand."

Mrs. Meng smiled with relief, "That's good. Prince Ning is a good person, and Princess Ning also knows the general situation. If your city of Danning really rises, I, the Meng family of Nanyang, will naturally not abandon this place."

*

From that day on, Bai Zhi never saw Meng Wenjing again.

The wedding date was not far away, just one month after it was agreed upon.

Zhuo Yao calmly wiped out the bandits in several cities. After all, they were just stragglers and could not compete with Zhuo Yao's elite.

After he occupied the last city, it was already the day before the wedding.

Song Qian took the bandit's head and threw it in front of Zhuo Yao, "Come on, go and marry your wife!"

But Zhuo Yao always felt something was wrong. He paced around the room with his hands folded, "I'm going just like that? Did you find any jewelry? I want to go empty-handed?"

"There are no jewels, and I don't know where they are hidden, or there are no jewels at all! But these four cities belong to her! What else does she want?"

Zhuo Yao originally planned to invite Zhuo Ling, but the mountains were high and the roads were far away, and there was constant fighting on Zhuo Ling's side, so he gave up this idea.

Let’s get together in the future, with my brother, with Brother Salan’s children, and even with Xiao Yang.

There is always time to get together.

He originally thought that when he married his wife, it would have to be grand, with eight carriages and ten miles of red makeup. Why did it end up like this now?

That flashy Zhou Lifei took over this job, but now he doesn’t have any relatives, and he doesn’t even have a box of jewelry. Zhuo Yao feels rushed, shabby, and useless!

It makes him lose face!

Seeing his hesitant look, Song Qian was troubled and said, "Don't think about it! If you don't go back, you won't be able to catch up! If you really want to express something, you have to think about what this girl likes!"

These words woke up the dreamer, what does she like! Zhuo Yao understood instantly.

A fast horse galloped away.

On the wedding day, everyone was dumbfounded because the groom was not in his seat!

Bai Zhi asked Zhou Li in disbelief, "Brother Zhou! Have you finally reached an agreement?"

Zhou Li, who had always been calm, panicked, "It's settled! It's today! He still agreed."

Today's guests are all Bai Zhi's acquaintances in Danning City, most of them are girls, all of them look anxious.

"You're not running away from your marriage, are you?"

"Is he a liar?"

"Oh! Miss Snow, I just said you have bad taste!"

……

What can Bai Zhi do? She is also very anxious!
