Dragon Pattern Roll Set

It had been a while since the palace bell rang, the officials and the new princes had arrived long ago, but Bai Yutang was late.

Xuanyuan Jie didn't seem to care, chatting with the officials while waiting for Bai Yutang to come.Today's Xuanyuan Jie feels a lot more friendly than before, and... seems to be unwell, and looks a little weak.

Finally, at the gate of the palace, Huai Mi welcomed Bai Yutang who didn't really want to come.

Huai Mi stepped forward, "Your Highness's complexion is not very good, are you feeling unwell?"

Bai Yutang looked at him, suddenly smiled, and asked, "When did you see me look better?"

"Uh..." Huai Mi opened her mouth, thinking about it, it's true, Bai Yutang usually has no expression, but...Bai Yutang seems to be a little hostile today.

Bai Yutang didn't talk to him too much... According to his judgment, Huai Mi knew that Xuanyuan Jie would become Bai Ling'er at night, so was he loyal to Xuanyuan Jie?Or loyal to Bai Ling'er?Or, he is loyal to someone else.

Walking into the main hall of the imperial palace, the lazy Xuanyuan Jie saw Bai Yutang coming, and finally lifted his spirits, and a smile appeared on his face.

The princes who had just returned looked at each other in dismay - their memories were somewhat blurred. In their memory, Xuanyuan Jie's kind smile with a strong paternal love hadn't appeared for a long time.

But the smile and kindness that all the princes valued the most was what caused Bai Yutang the most headaches, he would rather Xuanyuan Jie speak harshly to him.

Bai Yutang walked up to the main hall. Anyway, he didn't have any official position and didn't care about government affairs, so he stood at the end of the two rows of courtiers, trying not to affect people's discussion of state affairs.

Xuanyuan Jie shook his head helplessly, and waved to him, "Yu'er, you are the crown prince, so naturally you stand at the front."

Bai Yutang was embarrassed and annoyed by this situation, but he didn't mind, he walked to the front and stood there.

Xuanyuan Jie asked, "Are you tired after running this trip?"

Bai Yutang shook his head, "It's okay, it's not too far away."

Bai Yutang considered whether to tell Xuanyuan Jie the results of the investigation of the corpses hidden in Binghe. Logically speaking, those corpses had already been sent to Xuanyuan Jie, and the case was reported, but Xuanyuan Jie didn't seem to be interested at all.

Xuanyuan Jie felt that Bai Yutang seemed to be in a bad mood, so he asked, "Yutang, are you tired?"

The other princes present looked at each other silently—they had been here for a long time, and they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and their father didn't greet them at all.Bai Yutang just had a bad complexion, Xuanyuan Jie put all his attention on him, and all the princes thought it was a bit funny, and they had hoped that Xuanyuan Jie would at least greet him after seeing each other in these years, but unexpectedly...he still hasn't changed at all.

At this time, among the princes, the oldest one stepped forward, "Royal father."

Xuanyuan Jie looked at him and nodded.

Bai Yutang heard what Suyi said before he came, and now that many princes have been re-arranged, the first prince's name seems to be Xuanyuan Xia, who is rather strong and old-fashioned.

"I heard that the father has found a new crown prince. I wonder if it has been verified that he is indeed of the royal blood?" As he spoke, the eldest prince glanced at Bai Yutang, "Forgive me, bluntly, Bai Yutang is not similar to anyone in my royal family. "

After listening to Bai Yutang, he felt that this sentence was quite pleasing to the ear. It was indeed different from your family's. Is it still the same? !

Thinking of this, Bai Yutang wondered why his tone was close to Zhan Zhao's when thinking about the problem?I always feel that there is that cat hidden in my head, and the way I think and speak is a bit like a cat...

Xuanyuan Jie's face darkened, obviously displeased, he looked at Xuanyuan Xia, and said, "Stop talking nonsense..."

"Father, please verify the authenticity of the crown prince!"

But before Xuanyuan Jie could finish speaking, all the princes, except Xuanyuan Lang and Xuanyuan Jue who hadn't arrived due to illness, all asked Xuanyuan Jie to prove that Bai Yutang was really the queen of the royal family.

Even many courtiers followed suit.

Xuanyuan Lang frowned and looked at the crowd, thinking to himself—it's not good!

Bai Yutang was also aware at this time, it seemed that the ten princes and most of the courtiers had conspired together and reached a consensus.Xuanyuan Jie's power is now on the sidelines... It seems that people's hearts are not with him.

Xuanyuan Jie's expression changed instantly, and he was about to explode when he heard Bai Yutang say, "I have no objection."

Everyone looked at him.

Bai Yutang said nonchalantly, "Originally, my condition for staying was the same, to prove my identity within one month."

Several princes looked at each other, and subconsciously glanced at Xuanyuanpo.

Xuanyuanpo showed no expression, and bowed her head in silence.

Bai Yutang had a panoramic view of the changes in everyone's expressions, and he knew it in his heart... In fact, what Zhan Zhao said was right, the struggle in the court is nothing more than observing the words and expressions.It's really not that difficult to observe words and demeanor, just take a look carefully, if you have a ghost in your heart, even if you froze your face, you can't hide that demonic aura.

Inexplicably, Bai Yutang thought of Zhan Zhao's expression when he said this. Although Zhan Zhao was not standing beside him, he felt that the cat in his head would come out to make jokes at any time.Thinking of this, Bai Yutang's mood improved a bit, as expected - he could be happier when he thought of Zhan Zhao.

"How to test?" Xuanyuan Jie looked at Xuanyuan Xia coldly.

"Bloody confession." The eldest prince said, "Besides, I heard that Mrs. Bai is also in Beihai, so it is necessary to confront her!"

The ministers nodded.

Xuanyuan Jie frowned, but unlike in the past, he was neither aggressive nor showed any killing intent.

But Bai Yutang said, "I have no objection to confessing relatives with blood, but it may be difficult to find my mother."

Xuanyuan Xia was puzzled, "What's the difficulty?"

"The difficulty is that she may not be willing to see you." Bai Yutang smiled.

Xuanyuan Xia waved his hand, "The matter is of great importance!"

"You're just important, she might not think how important it is." Bai Yutang felt that Zhan Zhao had come out again.

"Why not?" Xuanyuan Xia was puzzled.

"Why do you want to meet?" Bai Yutang asked back, "You mean that onion? My mother can even say that she doesn't see the emperor of Song Dynasty."

"puff."

Xuanyuan Lang couldn't hold back for a moment, almost laughed out loud, but fortunately he swallowed it back.

Xuanyuan Xia became angry, "Could it be that you don't want us to see her?"

Bai Yutang looked him up and down, "Why don't you ask her yourself, but she has rules, the younger generation will kowtow three times before seeing her."

"Bastard!" Xuanyuan Xia was annoyed.

"I don't even have a chance to meet a bastard. She despises a bastard the most." Bai Yutang was sure that he was good at playing tricks, probably because of Zhan Zhao's influence.

Xuanyuan Xia cupped his hands to Xuanyuan Jie, "Father..."

"Enough." Xuanyuan Jie glared at him.

Bai Yutang was a little surprised, how did Xuanyuan Jie control his internal energy so well today?And his temper seems to be better. In the past, at this time, his internal power should have leaked out, and he ordered to kill people... It's a bit strange.Could it be that you are patient because you know that you are controlled by others?But why can't Xuanyuan Jie's inner strength be felt at all? Is there something wrong with his body?

"Huai Mi." Xuanyuan Jie instructed Huai Mi, "You preside over the confession by blood."

Huai Mi immediately ordered people to prepare.

Before Bai Yutang came, Gongsun did give him some vinegar powder to deal with bloody confession, but at this time Bai Yutang didn't want to use it, and he didn't know why, anyway, he didn't want to use it.

But the strange thing is... Maybe it's really because of the same clan relationship as the real Yu'er?Bai Yutang's blood and Xuanyuan Jie's blood could be mixed together without congealing.

Several princes looked at each other, Xuanyuan Jie pointed to the red dot on Bai Yutang's finger, "Yu'er was born with this birthmark on her thumb, I will not remember it wrong."

The princes stopped talking, and at this moment, Xuanyuan Po took a step forward and cupped his hands at Xuanyuan Jie, "Congratulations, father, for finding the prince back."

Bai Yutang frowned slightly.

Several princes and a group of ministers also congratulated Xuanyuan Jie.

Xuanyuan Jie appeared to be in a good mood, nodded with a smile, and asked the ministers how their preparations for the sacrifice to heaven were going.

All the ministers said that it was almost done, and tomorrow would be an auspicious day.

Xuanyuan Jie nodded, seemed to be a little tired, so he waved his hand, signaling—to leave the court.

After Xuanyuan Jie got up, he asked Bai Yutang to have dinner at his place later, and left in a hurry.

Bai Yutang turned around and walked out of the palace with some puzzlement—what happened to Xuanyuan Jie today?And why dinner and not lunch?Xuanyuan Jie walked in a hurry, as if fleeing, his footsteps were vain, what about his internal strength?

At this time, Xuanyuan Lang ran up from behind, "Hello."

Bai Yutang looked at him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and thought that the arrival was just in time.

"I just asked someone to investigate. Those eight princes brought more troops than the sum of all the soldiers and horses in the imperial city... You see, the emperor can't do anything to them today!" Xuanyuan Lang's focus of concern is obviously different from that of Bai Yutang. ...

Before Bai Yutang could speak hastily, he heard someone chasing after him.

When Bai Yutang and Xuanyuanlang turned their heads, they saw that it was Xuanyuanpo.

Xuanyuanpo said to Bai Yutang, "Walking and chatting?"

Bai Yutang glanced at him, turned around, and asked Xuanyuanlang, "Walk while walking?"

The corners of Xuanyuan Lang's mouth twitched, feeling flattered that Bai Yutang actually invited him to chat while walking.

Bai Yutang ignored Xuanyuan Po directly, and walked towards the Prince's Hall together with Xuanyuan Lang.

Xuanyuanpo sighed, "I'll look for you later, some things cannot be avoided, you should understand."

Bai Yutang ignored him and continued walking.

Xuanyuan Lang looked behind, Xuanyuan Po was standing there looking at Bai Yutang's back, and several other princes came up behind him, and they seemed to be talking to Xuanyuan Po.

Xuanyuan Lang frowned, and asked Bai Yutang, "Is he looking for trouble for you?"

Bai Yutang shook his head and asked him, "Have you noticed that the emperor seems to be in poor health today?"

"Oh, he may have a cough." Xuanyuan Lang said, "Father will cough for a while every few months, and then people who are not in good health are weaker."

Bai Yutang frowned slightly, obviously this was Xuanyuan Jie's prevarication, how could a person with such high internal strength not be able to hold back a cough.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Xuanyuan Lang asked Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang looked at him and said, "I want to ask you a question."

"Ask." Xuanyuan Lang walked side by side with Bai Yutang with his hands behind his back, his previous hostility towards him was gone, and he looked quite relaxed.

"If we say..." Bai Yutang said, "Beihai is dead."

The corners of Xuanyuan Lang's mouth twitched, "Wow... You can't say such disrespectful words so arrogantly because your father loves you?"

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, "It's all said if."

"En." Xuanyuan Lang nodded, motioning for Bai Yutang to continue.

"If Beihai is subjugated and you become a commoner, what will you do?" Bai Yutang asked.

Xuanyuan Lang was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head, "How can I live... Well, I will depend on my father for my life."

Bai Yutang looked at him with some surprise, "Xuanyuan Jie doesn't love you? Are you still willing to take care of him and die?"

"Hey, don't you Central Plains people be kind and filial first?" Xuanyuan Lang sighed, "He doesn't love me and I'm also my father, and..."

"And what?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Do you think that if there is no throne, no country in the North Sea...would Father love me?" Xuanyuan Lang asked earnestly.

Bai Yutang froze for a moment, "Do you think he can love you?"

"That's right!" Xuanyuan Lang sighed, "I have always envied other people's fathers who are kind and filial. My father is good at everything, he is a person who does great things, so he doesn't care about us useless children... But I don’t know if he will change if he doesn’t have to do big things.”

Bai Yutang nodded, "Then remember what you said today."

After finishing speaking, the Prince's Mansion was not far ahead, and Bai Yutang said to him, "You are staying in the Prince's Mansion for the time being."

The corner of Xuanyuan Lang's mouth twitched, "Ah?!"

"It's safer." After Bai Yutang finished speaking, he entered the door.

Sure enough, Zhan Zhaozhen was sitting on the stone table in the yard waiting for him. Seeing that he had returned safely, he also heaved a sigh of relief and jumped off.

Bai Yutang tugged at Zhan Zhao, which means - let's go in and talk about it!

Zhan Zhao was a little puzzled, and was dragged into the room by Bai Yutang.

The second monk Xuanyuan Langzhang couldn't figure it out, but he just had an inexplicable feeling that Bai Yutang was definitely very attractive to women, he was handsome and talked, but he didn't allow others to resist.

After entering the room and closing the door, Bai Yutang said to Zhan Zhao and Tianzun Yin Hou, "Xuanyuan Jie seems to have a different internal force today."

"Different internal strength?" Yin Hou was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Bai Yutang talked about what happened in the hall today, "Also, Xuanyuan Po feels a little anxious."

"Hmm..." Tianzun touched his chin, "From this point of view, today may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, maybe it is!"

While talking, Fu Gao ran in, "His Royal Highness, the second prince is asking to see you."

Bai Yutang was about to push, but saw Fu Gao pointing at Zhan Zhao, and said, "The second prince asked to see Mr. Yin."

Zhan Zhao blinked, puzzled—see me?

Bai Yutang's face darkened, and he said, "Let him wait in the guest room."

Fu Gao nodded.

Zhan Zhao was about to go, but Bai Yutang dragged him away.

Zhan Zhao looked back at him.

Bai Yutang said, "I'll go."

Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "He said he was looking for me..."

Bai Yutang glared at him, "Just wait here obediently."

After finishing speaking, he left Zhan Zhao with his mouth open, turned around and went out.

Zhan Zhao turned his head to look at Tianzun and Yin Hou, what does that mean—who cares about this arrogant mouse.

It's just that Yin Hou and Tianzun raised their faces and pretended not to see it.

Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied and quietly followed him out.

Tianzun wanted to stop him, but Yin Hou gently pressed his wrist and shook his head, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

Tianzun looked at Yin Hou in puzzlement, "Yutang endured all this in order to protect Zhan Zhao, if you let Zhan Zhao go like this, if he hears something, wouldn't it be a waste of Yutang's hard work?"

Yin Hou laughed and nodded, "Yes."

"Then you won't stop your grandson?" Tianzun frowned, "You've been hiding it from him for more than 20 years, aren't you afraid he will find out?"

"It's still the same sentence, children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Yin Hou smiled, "Some things need two people to solve together."

Tianzun raised his eyebrows, "It sounds like you have so much experience."

"At least better than you!" Yin Hou glared at him.

Tianzun turned his face away, "Don't bother, it's okay, save my family Yutang from being angry alone."

"If Zhao eavesdrops outside, Yutang will notice, and Xuanyuanpo will never be allowed to say something that shouldn't be said, and even if he says it, he will be interrupted." Yin Hou poured himself a cup of tea, "I just want to give It's just a chance."

"What chance?" Tianzun was curious.

"The opportunity to get to know Bai Yutang better." Yin Hou smiled, "How good Yutang treats him, he has the right to know, and should know, what else..."

"Also?" Tianzun snatched his teacup to drink tea.

"Well, your Yutang is quite smart, but he is a little straight, and people can't turn." Yin Hou touched his chin, "My Jiazhao is different, he is much smarter than Yutang, and he is also more wicked. Cooperation can solve problems, are they a match made in heaven! The demon king said."

"That's true." Tianzun also nodded, feeling very convincing.
