A White Lotus Host Who Does Not Want To Be a White Moonlight is Not a Good Host

Because Meng Yanbai is still young, it is not advisable to choose an heir too early, otherwise it is not a good thing.

Therefore, when the turmoil caused by this incident gradually subsided over time, the two people in the center of the vortex, Meng Yanbai and Bai Lianhua, did not take any further actions, but just waited for the future.

On the contrary, the members of the Bai clan became enthusiastic from this moment on, and strictly educated every child born after that, hoping that he would stand out among his peers in the future.

So Bai Lianhua discovered that this is actually beneficial... Putting the ownership of the throne on the table, most of the Bai family members instantly had a clear goal, and temporarily stopped their unnecessary resentment towards Meng Yanbai. to fight for.

——Meng Yanbai's limited scope is really broad, only saying that it is the blood of the Bai family... This has given rise to extravagant hopes for many side clans who had no chance of the throne in the previous dynasty.

Of course, there are also a small number of Bai family members who have more backbone and feel that Meng Yanbai's actions are like charity. Even if such a throne is won, it is meaningless, and it is legitimate to overthrow him.

However, although what he said is not unreasonable, there are very few people who actually agree, and most of the Bai family members are silent.

There are risks in trying to rebel, and there is no certainty of success or failure... Besides, Meng Yanbai used force to seize the throne and firmly held the military power. How could they have the strength to compete with Meng Yanbai, a group of former royal families who lost their power? .Want to forcibly restore?Dreaming, don't even think about spending a hundred years of accumulated strength in secret, it's better to take back the throne gently like this.

In particular, Meng Yanbai had clearly announced the decree to the people of the world, and he did not waver even at the moment when the court was most excited. He was not afraid of his repentance in the future, unless he did not want the face of the emperor, and would rather be majestic.

So the person who proposed this idea, seeing that everyone educates their children as they actually do, couldn't help feeling frustrated and stopped speaking out.

Otherwise, if he insists on planning a rebellion, he will definitely be regarded as a hindrance by the most outstanding heirs in the future.And decades later, if a child in the clan really succeeds in becoming a leader, will he continue to rebel or not?At that time, he also lost his reputation as righteousness.

Even the few courtiers who were nostalgic for the old lord and who had been in private contact with him were shaken, thinking that it would be safer to wait a few decades and still have a person named Bai sitting on the throne than committing a rebellion with unknown results.

Therefore, although the hearts of the Bai family were fluctuating, there were fewer small actions in private.

After more than ten years of observation, Bai Lianhua finds Meng Yanbai, and declares that he has chosen Bai Chengguang, the eldest son of Bai Lianyi and Tang's cousin, and thinks that he will be worthy of great responsibility in the future.

It's not just because of the closeness that comes with getting along often.

Bai Chengguang is not strong and brave, good at martial arts, nor eloquent, shrewd and resourceful. It can be said that he is not the most outstanding in any aspect among a group of children who are candidates, but he has clear eyes, good temperament, and tolerance. The amount of people, and know who to let do what.

The emperor doesn't need to know everything, otherwise what's the use of courtiers.Knowing people well is the greatest advantage of an emperor.

This result disappointed a group of teenagers who desperately wanted to show off their talents.

Meng Yanbai was also very satisfied with this candidate. After all, he had thought about it as early as the beginning, but he was not sure that he would not say it in the future. Now that Bai Chengguang is not crooked, it is naturally the best.

And compared to other boys surnamed Bai, he is the closest blood relative to Bai Lianhua. From his mother's side, he should call Bai Lianhua uncle, and from his father's side, he should be called Bai Lianhua. A cousin.

Because of Tang's daughter's relationship, this child has a good relationship with Bai Lianhua, and he really regards him as a teacher.

But looking sour, Meng Yanbai couldn't help but smile when he said that he didn't know how good Bai Chengguang was in other Bai family members.

"After so many years, you still have such a peculiar way of looking at people... like me in the past, and Bai Chengguang now."

They are all criticized.

Bai Lianhua smiled and replied: "I believe in my vision, you are, and so is Bai Chengguang."

——Bai Chengguang is a good boy.Bai Lianhua doesn't know if he can be a wise king and leave behind great achievements in the future, but he believes that he will at least be a successful king who is diligent and caring for the people.

……

Back then, in order to accumulate meritorious service as soon as possible, Meng Yanbai fought in all directions when he was young, disregarding his own safety, and suffered many hidden injuries, which damaged the foundation of his body. Later, when he was less than 50 years old, various hidden diseases broke out, and he was advised by the imperial physician that he must live well keep.

So Meng Yanbai discussed with Bai Lianhua and decided to abdicate to become the Supreme Emperor.

Bai Lianhua was very surprised when he heard this.

Is Meng Yanbai so relieved of Bai Chengguang?No, it's not that they don't get along well. Meng Yanbai has indeed been cultivating Bai Chengguang as his heir all along, but with Meng Yanbai's suspicious character, he should at least hesitate for a while, and be fully prepared before bringing up the matter. .

Meng Yanbai smiled at this: "You said that you believe in your vision. Similarly, I also believe in your vision."

What's more, Bai Lianhua has a characteristic that makes people who get along with him become kind.

Sure enough, after Bai Chengguang came to power, he didn't dare to show any disrespect to them.He respected Meng Yanbai and Bai Lianhua very much. In the early days of his administration, he often took the initiative to ask for advice when he encountered difficulties, but Meng Yanbai impatiently refused him to come back next time.

"You are the crown prince who was taught by the king of Qi and Zhen, but now you are enthroned as the emperor, but you don't even have this ability? Don't you feel ashamed? Don't expect us to help you again until the time of extreme difficulties."

Bai Chengguang's expression became solemn: "It's my son who is incompetent...I will never dare to live up to the expectations of the Tai Tuo and my father."

Regarding this, Bai Lianhua looked at a loss: "???"

no, did i say something?Young man, I am not disappointed in you.

……

Before dying, Meng Yanbai looked at Bai Lianhua and said, "Although I said when you first came back, I would never ask you about your identity...but that was a lie."

"Actually, I've always wanted to know, are you a human, a ghost, a spirit, or a fairy? Why did you come back... After all, you must have a purpose or an obsession when you come back from the dead."

"But after so many years, I haven't understood it."

"I wanted to ask, but I never dared to."

Bai Lianhua asked him back: "Then what do you want me to be?"

Meng Yanbai replied: "If I hope...whether it is a ghost or a ghost, it is very good. If it is a fairy, it will be even better."

Bai Lianhua was surprised: "Why do you say that?" Obviously, according to common sense, you should most hope that he is a normal human being, right?

"Because in this way, your life will be very, very long. I can feel that I am dying...but I don't want you to die."

Bai Lianhua was stunned, feeling astringent and bitter in his mouth.

After a long time, he shook his head and replied: "Actually, I can't say what state I am in now, but I can tell you one thing for sure, I came back for you...I have come here for you all my life."

"The whole life?" Meng Yanbai murmured, he was already a little bit downcast, "Including the very beginning, all for me from beginning to end?"

After finishing speaking, Meng Yanbai felt that he was really going to die, and he had already begun to lose his mind and started talking nonsense... Too greedy, really too greedy, to even think about the time before Bai Lianhua met him Occupation... is clearly impossible.

——Although for him, meeting Bai Lianhua back then was indeed a fate.

However, Bai Lianhua responded softly and firmly: "Yes, we met from the very beginning... from the beginning to the end, it was for you."

"Even if we didn't meet at Meng's house back then, you would still know me in another time and place."

"I will also take the initiative to reach out to you as I did back then."

Meng Yanbai, whose eyes had begun to slacken, suddenly smiled brightly, as if as long as Bai Lianhua said so, he would really believe it.

"It's great. In this life, I can meet you... I really have no regrets."

He looked at Bai Lianhua with a smile, and slowly closed his eyes.

……

According to historical records of later generations, Meng Yanbai had no concubines or descendants in the palace all his life, and in the end the throne was still in the blood of the previous dynasty.He and Bai Lianhua, who was the most controversial official in history as the prince of the former dynasty, had achieved each other, created a prosperous world, and finally passed away at the same time on the same day in the same year.

There are too many secrets about them.

For example, as the first unmarried emperor, what is the relationship between Meng Yanbai and Bai Lianhua, who is also the first unmarried minister? What kind of love and hatred did they have when they were young? If they were friends, why would Meng Yanbai He wants to overthrow the Bai family dynasty, and even kill several princes of the Bai family with his own hands. If it is an enemy, why does Meng Yanbai only trust Bai Lianhua all his life, and even let Bai Lianhua decide the candidate for the crown prince.

Another example is that the successor emperor Bai Chengguang has no blood relationship with Meng Yanbai, but is close to Bai Lianhua.Bai Chengguang's biological father is Bai Lianhua's cousin, and his biological mother is Bai Lianhua's cousin. No matter which side of the relationship is sorted out from both parents, the relationship between them is extremely close.

There are also miscellaneous historical rumors that Bai Chengguang's mother, the Miss Tang family and Bai Lianhua's cousin, once almost married Meng Yanbai, and then almost married Bai Lianhua. The true love in my heart gave birth to Bai Chengguang.

Look at who is related to her, a legendary emperor, a legendary minister, and a Mingjun who is a link between the past and the future, who is her own son, and was later regarded as the queen mother, enjoying life to the fullest Ronghua, who finally lived to be nearly a hundred years old before driving to the west of Hexi, can be called a winner in life.

Empress Dowager Tang is therefore called God's biological daughter by the good-for-nothings of later generations. According to her deeds, countless novels have been written, and countless movies and TV series have been filmed...

Whether these rumors are true or not, no one knows.

——Oh no, there is one thing that can be recognized among the various rumors, that is, Bai Lianhua has a good appearance.

When Meng Yanbai's personal eunuch Hui Jifu left the palace in old age, because the successor emperor valued him and had many disciples and grandchildren, he lived a very happy life.He has a wide range of friends, and his favorite thing is to lead others to reminisce about the past. Although he doesn't say a word that shouldn't be said, every time he talks about the old master, he can't help but sigh: "Our prince is like a fairy. Appeared!"

No one can understand the specific meaning of the second half of his sentence, and many conjectures have been derived from it, but the first half of the sentence is still easy to understand. Immortal, how can he be described as an immortal without outstanding appearance and high bearing?

This point was clearly recorded as an anecdote by many literati at that time, and it has been passed down to this day.
