"Brother Yuxian."
"Cousin Yuxian."
"Sir."
"Brother Xian is back."
At sunset, Bai Yuxian returned home after finishing his training outside the city. He spent the night at Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi's place in Tianxiang Tower last night, where he also happened to complete the progress of obtaining [Yi Xin] destiny.
The house was very lively because Qin and Liu Yiren's mother and daughter were also there, as well as their maids.
During this time, ever since Qin and Liu Yiren's mother and daughter came to live in Wuhou's mansion, they had been visiting the foreign mansion for a long time, and Qin chatted with Zhen.
Liu Yiren also gathered with the three girls Han Shiyin and Xiangling and their maids to talk about their daughter's family.
Especially Liu Yiren, since she gradually became familiar with Han Shiyin and Xiangling, and especially Bai Yuxian, she would bring her maid to the foreign mansion almost every day during the day. Even if Qin didn't come sometimes, Liu Yiren would come by herself. He took the maid and Han Shiyin out of the inner palace together.
"Aunt Liu, cousin Yiren."
Bai Yuxian also smiled and said hello to Qin, Liu Yiren and his daughter.
"Sir, I'm going to prepare a medicinal bath for you."
When the nun at home saw Bai Yuxian coming back, she hurriedly said, and started to prepare a medicinal bath for Bai Yuxian.
Not long after, the medicated bath was ready, Bai Yuxian immediately went to the bathroom, took a comfortable medicated bath, and then changed into clean clothes before walking out again.
"Brother Yuxian, do you play chess?"
Seeing Bai Yuxian come out of the medicinal bath, Han Shiyin asked.
Liu Yiren also immediately looked at Bai Yuxian with beautiful eyes and eager expectation.
During this time, the closest contact she had with Bai Yuxian was playing chess face to face with Bai Yuxian, which was also her favorite thing.
Although she was no match for Bai Yuxian every time she played chess, as long as she could play chess with Bai Yuxian and look at Bai Yuxian like this, she felt satisfied and willing to lose for the rest of her life.
At the same time, deep down in her heart, she also longed to be able to get closer to Bai Yuxian, but Bai Yuxian never showed any initiative towards her.
This also made Liu Yiren very distressed. As long as Bai Yuxian took the initiative, even just a little bit, she would never hesitate to refuse.
But Bai Yuxian never said anything.
Sometimes Liu Yiren even feels that Bai Yusheng in the inner palace is not useless. Although he is annoying, he is at least proactive. He always tries every possible means to get close to her. His thoughts in his heart can hardly hide all kinds of flattery. Although Bai Yusheng's performance makes her Feeling displeased or even disgusted.
But it would be great if this person was Bai Yuxian.
Liu Yiren knows that what she actually hates is not that men take the initiative to be attentive. She just hates that the person who takes the initiative to be attentive is not the one she likes.
If the person who offered the courtesy was not Bai Yusheng but Bai Yuxian, she would definitely agree immediately without hesitation.
However, Bai Yuxian has not shown any initiative so far. Although he has a good attitude towards her, it is more out of courtesy and gentlemanly courtesy.
Really, Cousin Yuxian doesn’t know how to take the initiative, he is not bad either.
Do you have to take the initiative yourself?
Liu Yiren was secretly troubled.
"Okay, I'll play a few more games today, but after today, I won't be able to play anymore for the time being. The autumn exam is coming soon, and I have to prepare for the autumn exam."
Faced with the invitation to play chess, Bai Yuxian did not refuse.
Although he has successfully obtained the [Chess Heart] destiny, it no longer means much to him to continue playing chess, but it doesn't hurt to play a few more games with a few girls tonight.
The women all nodded after hearing Bai Yuxian's words and said nothing.
After all, these girls know the importance of it, and they know that playing chess is just for fun, and there is no harm in playing it in their free time. But when there is serious business, especially compared with the autumn test, it is obvious at a glance which one is more important.
Although Liu Yiren was a little disappointed, I was afraid that there would be less opportunities to have such close contact with Bai Yuxian in the future, but he still expressed his blessing in his heart.
"With Cousin Yuxian's talent, there won't be any problems in this autumn test."
"Cheng Yiren's cousin Ji Yan."
Bai Yuxian responded with a smile, and then began to take turns playing chess with several girls.
But now when faced with several women, Bai Yuxian is always letting go. Otherwise, with Bai Yuxian's current chess skills, even if the women are added together, they will not be enough for him to beat with one hand.
If there are levels in chess skills, the current Bai Yuxian definitely belongs to the master level.
Down until nightfall.
Mother Qin, Liu Yiren and their daughter got up to say goodbye and returned to the inner palace. Bai Yuxian also took Han Shiyin and Xiangling back to her small courtyard.
"Brother Yuxian, dad will arrive in the capital the day after tomorrow."
In the courtyard, Han Shiyin and Xiang Ling were clinging to Bai Yuxian, one on the left and the other on the right. Han Shiyin's charming face looked up at Bai Yuxian and said happily.
However, this period of time passed, and Han Su finally returned to Beijing from Lingnan to report on his work. He would arrive in the capital the day after tomorrow.
"When will my uncle enter the city, I will pick him up." Bai Yuxian said immediately, feeling a little happy in his heart. His father-in-law was finally coming, so that if he became an official later, he would have a trustworthy helper in the court.
"No, dad said that after returning to Beijing, he will first go to the palace to report on his duties and wait for follow-up arrangements, and then he will come directly here."
"In that case, we will wait for uncle at home the day after tomorrow."
"Um."
At the same time, in the inner palace, mother Qin, Liu Yiren and her daughter returned to their residence.
"Mom, is there anything you want to tell your daughter?"
Liu Yiren looked doubtfully at her mother who had turned away the maids.
"Mom does have something she wants to ask and talk to you about. Mother also hopes that you can tell her what's in your heart truthfully." Ms. Qin said with a serious expression.
Seeing her mother look so serious for the first time, Liu Yiren's heart suddenly tightened: "Mother, please speak."
"My mother asked you, do you want to enter the palace in this draft?"
With a flick of the brush, Liu Yiren's face instantly turned pale.
Thinking of the draft entering the palace and the orders at home, I couldn't help but suddenly feel panic.
Before she came to the Bai family and met Bai Yuxian, although she was a little nervous about entering the palace through the draft, she was actually somewhat looking forward to it, and was not very repelled. After all, if the draft was really successful and the emperor favored her, , but there are few women in the world who don’t like the opportunity to truly fly on a branch and become a phoenix.
But now that she has seen Bai Yuxian, especially after getting along with her during this period, she thinks that once the draft enters the palace, she will never have the chance to be with Bai Yuxian again, and she may not even be able to see her in the future.
Liu Yiren didn't think about it anymore.
She doesn't want to be drafted into the palace, and she doesn't expect to have the chance to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. She just wants to be with Bai Yuxian every day like now, and even wants to be able to marry Bai Yuxian like Han Shiyin and Xiangling.
But if I say that I don’t want to be drafted into the palace, how can my family agree, especially my father and the Liu family? After all, my father and the entire family are counting on her to successfully enter the palace, so that in the future, with the help of her, she will be able to achieve success and make the entire Liu family... Take it to the next level and get rid of business status.
Thinking of this, Liu Yiren was instantly filled with fear. Thinking of her behavior towards Bai Yuxian during this period, she couldn't help but look at Qin Shidao.
"Is the mother reminding her daughter that she wants to be drafted into the palace and keep a distance from cousin Yuxian? If her daughter says she doesn't want to enter the palace, will the mother be angry?"
"Silly boy, once you enter the palace, it will be as deep as the sea. There are many hardships and dangers involved. Mother does not expect you to become a successful person. As long as you can happily marry into a good family, mother will be satisfied. How can she be angry because you don't want to enter the palace? , it’s not too late for mother to be happy.”
When Mrs. Qin heard this, she smiled softly.
"What mother means is that if you don't want to enter the palace, I think Brother Xian is an excellent candidate. He is a beautiful tree, good at both civil and military affairs, and he is motivated and well-educated. If you can marry Brother Xian, mother will be relieved, and Even if your father and the clan are unhappy, they won't object to it. However, my mother still needs to ask your opinion on this matter. If you agree, I will talk to your Aunt Zhen and see your Aunt Zhen and Brother Xian. What I meant."
"Mother!"
Liu Yiren was overjoyed for a moment, but then she couldn't help but blush and show shyness.
"Mother, everything you said is true."
"Of course it's true, but what do you mean?"
Liu Yiren was surprised and shyly lowered her head.
"A daughter obeys her mother."
"You, these days I can't wait to have my eyes on Brother Xian, and you still listen to me."
When Mrs. Qin saw this, she couldn't help but angrily revealed it.
It's not like she has no eyesight. How could she not see her daughter's behavior during this period, especially the look in her eyes when she saw Bai Yuxian.
But it has to be said that Bai Yuxian is indeed as good as a jade master and as impeccable as a banished immortal.
The more they got along with her during this period, the more she couldn't help but become more satisfied and fond of Bai Yuxian's senses.
That is to say, she is already married as a woman, otherwise she might have been tempted and fallen into love.
Liu Yiren immediately blushed and lowered her head and stopped talking, wondering if her thoughts had been so obvious these days.
