Herb Family [Rebirth]

Chapter 49 Entering the Palace for the First Time

Bai Heng didn't find a chance to take out the note until he got on the bed to take a closer look.

Because he planned to read the note, he told the maids not to blow out the candles before going to bed. Seeing that he was young, the maids thought he was afraid of the dark, and smiled inwardly and said nothing.

After all the maids retreated, Bai Heng slowly took out the note.

Because there were maids outside at night, Bai Heng didn't dare to move too much, for fear of disturbing the maids outside.

He could only turn his body quietly, facing the flickering candlelight outside the bed, carefully read the note.

Fortunately, there were not many words on the note, only a few short sentences, but after Bai Heng read it, his heart was filled with anger, but at the same time, his back broke out in a cold sweat.

He never expected that the Xu family would have such a dirty idea.

No wonder Mrs. Lu tried her best to let him go with Lu Qi. Fortunately, he thought that Mrs. Lu was so sincere to Lu Qi, but the reality was so cruel.

Bai Heng put away the note, unable to calm down for a long time.

According to Lu Qi's note, the purpose of going to Su Wang's mansion tomorrow is to see him. If Su Wang or Su Wang's son takes a fancy to him, the Xu family will send him out to serve the nobles.

Although Tongcheng's atmosphere is conservative, so there are no such bad habits, but Bai Heng knows that the children of wealthy families in the capital now have the custom of raising young and handsome bookboys, and it is common for friends to give bookboys to each other.

What's more, there are quite a few scholars who often set foot in the small servants' houses, and some scholars simply keep a group of small servants at home, which is the same as keeping actors, all for entertaining guests and socializing.

In fact, the function of the book boy is the same as that of the little boy, but it is just to make the name more pleasant.

Therefore, as soon as he thought of him being treated by the Xu family as a young lady who could flirt with him at will, Bai Heng's heart would be full of anger.

It's just that what Lu Qi said is right, they are too weak now, even if they know what the Xu family is up to, they can't resist.

For the current plan, it is still necessary to rely on the power of Su Wangfu to leave the Xu family as soon as possible. ...

The next morning, Bai Heng got up early, washed up under the service of the maids, and saw the maids coming in with a brand new robe.

Bai Heng's movements paused, and he looked puzzled, but he sneered a few times in his heart. It seemed that the Xu family really put all their efforts into getting themselves into the eyes of the nobleman.

The leading servant girl smiled and said, "Young Master Bai, this is the old lady's order to make a new robe specially made by the mansion in the past few days, do you see if it fits?"

Bai Heng put on an innocent and ignorant look, thanked him cheerfully, and changed into new clothes under the service of the maids.

Not to mention, the material in Xu's mansion is naturally good, this new robe on the upper body makes Bai Heng's eyebrows more delicate, and he looks more energetic and more expensive than before.

Walking out of the mansion with this body, who can tell that he is a bumpkin from Tongcheng?

Those who don't know can't help but praise, which family's young master is so handsome.

Seeing that the effect was so good, the leading servant girl also nodded frequently. The old lady must be very satisfied when she saw it, and the people below are also easy to deal with.

After Bai Heng took care of himself, he was led to pay his respects to the old lady.

When Bai Heng arrived, Lu Qi was already there.

When Lu Qi saw the brand-new Bai Heng, he was obviously taken aback, and a gleam of light flashed quickly in his eyes, but immediately followed by deeper worries.

Seeing the worry in Lu Qi's eyes, Bai Heng felt comforted in his heart, so he smiled at him to comfort him, and then respectfully greeted the old lady.

Seeing Bai Heng after taking care of him, the old lady not only became more amiable, but also laughed out loud for the first time, "Hehe, which family's handsome boy is this, come and let me have a look."

Bai Heng had no choice but to walk up to the old lady, and she grabbed her to look up and down. The old lady's strange eyes made one's scalp tingle, Bai Heng resisted the urge to wave her away, and let her look at her.

It was not easy for the old lady to let go of Bai Heng, at this time several ladies also came to pay their respects.

When the wives saw Bai Heng, their eyes were naturally brightened. They did not expect that Bai Heng was so delicately dressed.

As for the eldest lady who heard a little sporadic news from her husband, her brain moved relatively quickly, and she guessed the old lady's plan at once. Apart from being horrified in her heart, she couldn't help feeling sorry for Bai Heng.

Such an exquisite young master, will he still be alive after entering Su Wang's mansion?

Although the other three wives didn't know the old lady's intentions, but seeing the old lady's generosity, they thought that Bai Heng should be useful, not just an idler as they thought.

Several wives each had their own thoughts, and after greeting the old lady, they left one after another.

After the old lady pulled Lu Qi and Bai Heng to have breakfast together, she led them and the servants who accompanied them, and went out to Su Wang's mansion in a mighty way.

After arriving at King Su's mansion, the old lady's carriage went directly from the corner gate to the second gate. After getting off the carriage, the old mother in front of Princess Su was already waiting there.

As soon as the old lady saw the old mother, she hurried forward and said: "How can I let my mother come out in person? It's just a matter of sending a little maid, and I have to work for my mother."

The mother's attitude towards the old lady was also very polite, she said with a smile: "The concubine has been talking about you, Mrs. Gong, and said that if the garden flowers hadn't bloomed, it would be really difficult to invite Mrs. Gong."

The old lady talked and laughed with the old mother, and then boarded the soft sedan chair waiting at the side.

Even if she saw Lu Qi in a wheelchair during the period, the old mother's expression did not change at all.

A group of people entered the backyard of the palace in a soft sedan chair.

The soft sedan stopped directly at the gate of the concubine's courtyard, and after the old lady got off the sedan chair, she seemed to inadvertently ask: "Today I came here in response to the concubine's post. I wonder if the prince or the prince is free?"

"Mr. Gong came by coincidence. Both the prince and the prince are free today." The old mother replied with a smile, and exchanged a look with the old lady after finishing speaking.

Smart people don't need to talk too much, just click on it.

The old lady knew what was in her mind, she straightened her spirits, and led Lu Qi and Bai Heng to greet the concubine.

After entering the main room, I heard hearty laughter, and the old concubine sitting in the middle said loudly: "I finally expect you to come to the door, why haven't you come to nest in your house for so long?"

Then I saw Lu Qi and Bai Heng who were following the old lady, and the old lady exclaimed again, "Oh, where did the little golden boy come from? You are so good-looking, you are here to covet me on purpose. .”

Although her tone was mostly admiration, Bai Heng keenly noticed that when the concubine saw Lu Qi's wheelchair, a look of displeasure flashed quickly in her eyes.

Bai Heng was standing beside Lu Qi, seeing this, he couldn't help stretching out his hand and gently pinched Lu Qi's shoulder.

Lu Qi didn't look back, and stretched out his hand to pat Bai Heng's hand on his shoulder. The two communicated quickly and silently for a while, and then hurriedly collected their minds to deal with the next situation.

The old lady didn't see the concubine's dislike for Lu Qi, she just listened to the concubine's continuous praise, and couldn't help but smile proudly on her face.

The old lady tried her best to restrain her emotions, and said respectfully: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and the concubine's complexion has improved a lot."

The concubine waved her hand, "When a person is old, what's the use of having a good complexion? Don't talk about those hypocrisy, just sit down quickly."

The old lady thanked the concubine, then sat down dignifiedly, and then said with a smile: "This is my unworthy grandson, who just entered Beijing a few days ago. Today I specially brought him here to see the world."

The concubine looked at Lu Qi, but the smile on her face faded, she nodded and said, "You look a bit like the Xu family, come and reward me."

The old lady's face froze, and then she pushed Bai Heng forward, "This is the young master of the Bai family who accompanied my grandson to Beijing. He understands medical principles at a young age, so he is a good one."

The concubine obviously had a much better attitude towards Bai Heng than Lu Qi. When she saw Bai Heng, she smiled and beckoned him to come forward.

The old lady was obedient and listened to the voice, so she hurriedly smiled and said: "If the concubine does not dislike it, let Heng'er serve you by your side, this is also Heng'er's blessing."

Bai Heng and Lu Qi were shocked at the same time when they heard the words, they thought they came to Su Wang's mansion today to let Su Wang or Su Wang's son see each other, why did the concubine come to see him?

Could it be that the concubine still recruits the people around him for Su Wang or Su Wang's son?

Before Bai Heng and Lu Qi were overwhelmed with surprise, the concubine had already agreed, "Then I won't be polite, don't go back on your word and ask me for someone."

Hearing the concubine's answer, Lu Qi began to feel anxious. He didn't have time to tell Bai Heng what to do, but now that Bai Heng was about to be left in Su Wang's mansion, what should he do?

At this time, Bai Heng was also in a hurry, he didn't expect that with just a few simple words, he would be left in Su Wang's mansion.

So what about Lu Qi?Thinking of the displeasure in the concubine's eyes just now, Bai Heng settled down, relying on his young appearance, he pretended to be innocent and asked, "Does the concubine want to let me stay and play?"

The concubine saw Bai Heng's delicate appearance, and said with a smile: "Yes, are you willing?"

Madam Xu's eyebrows twitched, she was afraid that Bai Heng would say something inappropriate, but she couldn't intervene at this time, so as not to offend the concubine, so she couldn't help feeling a little nervous on her face.

But I heard Bai Heng say: "If the concubine likes me, it will be my blessing, but I will miss third brother."

"Third brother? Is it the third brother in your family?" The concubine asked after being stunned.

"No, the third brother is brother Qi." Bai Heng pointed to Lu Qi, and said softly, "Can the concubine also keep the third brother to play with me?"

Mrs. Xu did not expect that Bai Heng would fight for Lu Qi. This was really an unexpected surprise. The smile on her face could hardly be restrained, but she could only force herself when she was concerned about the concubine sitting on it. He suppressed his joy.

The concubine did not expect that this seemingly innocent boy would beg her to keep Lu Qi.

She couldn't help but carefully looked at Xiaotong, trying to see some clues from the other's eyes, but no matter how she looked at him, the other looked innocent and ignorant.
