Book of Disaster

"Thank you Lord for your grace!"

Bai Qi quickly took it and said respectfully.

In front of him, there was a black tray covered with a piece of silk. At first glance, it looked as if it was covered with a ball. However, upon closer inspection, the silk was soaked with some scarlet blood and there was a faint smell of blood.

And inside the silk was the head of the high priest of the Eye of the Abyss, one of the culprits of the "Blood Moon".

Bai Qi's main purpose of entering the new world was to investigate the mastermind sect that controlled the Cthulhu creatures to invade the Yuan Dynasty's capital. The Dark Saint naturally knew Bai Qi's purpose, and after she had settled everything, she took the initiative to hand over the high priest's head to Bai Qi.

——This is not only a severance, but also a complete severance of the relationship between the Eye of the Abyss Sect and the Blood Moon by the Dark Saint.

It was precisely because of this, and Bai Qi’s narration, that the Great Yuan Emperor turned a blind eye and did not delve into the guilt of the Eye of the Abyss sect.

"Bai Qi, you have made great contributions this time. You are neither arrogant nor impatient. You did not take all the credit. You did not take any credit or rush into anything. This is very pleasing to me. In addition, I have also ordered people to deliver the rewards for Xu Xuanji's daughter and the two boys from the Zhou and Zhang families to the mansion."

The Great Yuan Emperor said loudly:

"Bai Qi, you just returned to the Yuan Dynasty not long ago, I will not keep you for long, let Eunuch Chen see you off."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

……

Outside the Taiji Hall, in front of the white jade steps.

"Thank you, Eunuch Chen, for seeing me off."

Bai Qi smiled and said to Eunuch Chen beside him.

"That's not right, General Bai. It won't be long before Princess Lengli returns to the palace and General Bai will become a member of the royal family. It is only natural for me to serve the royal family."

Eunuch Chen smiled.

However, when Bai Qi heard this, his smile froze and his expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

On the other side, Eunuch Chen didn't seem to notice Bai Qi's unnaturalness and continued:

"Haha, General Bai has been very busy recently, so it's normal that he didn't remember about his marriage to Princess Lengli. Also, Princess Lengli left the palace for training a few days ago. You two haven't seen each other during this period, so you'll naturally forget."

"General Bai, you may not know that before the court session this morning, His Majesty and this old servant mentioned the marriage between Princess Lengli and General Bai. It looks like it will be on the agenda soon."

"I would like to congratulate General Bai in advance. General Bai, please don't forget to invite me to the wedding banquet."

Eunuch Chen joked, and as he spoke, he bowed and looked congratulatory.

On the other side, Bai Qi's expression was extremely interesting.

marriage?

Or the marriage with Princess Lengli?

Something is wrong!

He made great contributions in the New World and was deeply loved by the Human Emperor. How come it seemed that he had inadvertently accelerated the process of his marriage with Princess Lengli?

Is this the true reward from the royal family?

The twisted melon is not sweet!

They have no emotional foundation, okay?

He doesn't want to marry that unruly and willful princess!

Firmly oppose arranged marriages in ancient feudal society!

He is a free citizen of modern society!

"...But, she actually left the palace to gain experience? When did this happen?"

Bai Qi suddenly remembered something.

Isn’t it said that princesses in ancient times were kept in deep palaces and could not leave the palace easily?

Did he think wrong?

The royal princess of this other world is freer than you think?

However, it only took a moment for Bai Qi to come back to his senses.

"Thank you, Eunuch Chen. I have something else to do. Just drop me off here. I'll leave first."

Bai Qi was sweating profusely and didn't dare to respond at all.

Eunuch Chen had been in the palace for many years and had lived for decades. He knew what Bai Qi was thinking at a glance. He smiled kindly and did not expose Bai Qi's thoughts. He said:

"Haha, General Bai, be careful on your journey. I won't see you off."

Bai Qi bowed, then turned around and left quickly as if escaping.

When Eunuch Chen watched Bai Qi's back disappear completely behind the palace wall with a smile, he slowly turned around and returned to the Taiji Hall.

……

Xi Yuyu!

The carriage clattered, and soon Bai Qi returned to the Bai Mansion.

But before getting off the carriage, I heard a chattering noise in the courtyard, which came through the wall:

"The young master is getting married, and our Bai Mansion is going to welcome the young mistress!"

"Yes! The young master suffered a lot in the past, and everyone avoided him. I didn't expect that he would become the Martial Emperor now, and become a popular figure that everyone in the capital wants to fight for. It's really a changing world!"

"Hehe, if it weren't for the imperial concubine acting as a matchmaker, I don't know how many noble families would come to the Bai Mansion to seek matchmaking for their daughters who are about to get married."

"Yes, the Imperial Concubine is kind-hearted and generous. She specially sent a gift here. It looks like the happy event in our Bai Mansion is not far away."

……

They are the maids in the mansion.

Bai Qi's face turned green when he heard the voice.

We just sent Eunuch Chen away, and now a bunch of gossiping maids are here again.

Sure enough, is gossiping a woman’s nature?

It's the same in any world!

But...how come the news spread so fast?

Um, Madam Concubine?

Gift?

What do you mean?

Bai Qi was confused and simply walked over.

"Master."

Inside the mansion, when the maids saw Bai Qi coming in, they were immediately filled with joy and made faces at him.

"What's going on, Imperial Concubine? ...Also, how did you know about my affairs?"

Bai Qi spoke.

"Hehe, Master, you're not going to hide this from us, are you?"

"That's right, that's right. How many people in the capital don't know about this?"

……

The maids looked at each other and giggled, thinking that Bai Qi was shy.

"The young master is back!"

At this moment, a voice came into his ears. Bai Qi looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was the old butler of the Bai Mansion who seemed to have heard the noise in the front yard and hurried out from the backyard.

The old butler looked at Bai Qi and said quickly:

"Master, don't you know? Not long ago, when Concubine Zhao learned that you had successfully suppressed the rebellion in the New World and the culprit of the Blood Moon, she came to visit you in person and specifically mentioned this marriage to you."

The old butler spoke with a smile on his face.

"Foster mother?"

Bai Qi was stunned. This was something he had not expected.

Normally, concubines in the harem were not allowed to leave the palace. If they wanted to, they had to report in advance, explain the reason, and obtain permission. If they wanted to leave the palace temporarily... It seemed that his stepmother, Concubine Zhao, had more power than he thought.

But it only took a moment for Bai Qi to come back to his senses and asked hurriedly:

"What is your father's attitude?"

"The master didn't express his opinion, but judging from his pleasant expression, he must have tacitly agreed to this marriage."

The old butler said, with a kind and joyful look on his face.

He watched the young master grow up, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is his own child.

Moreover, the young master is becoming more and more handsome and outstanding. Besides, he is old enough to get married.
