"You yourself are willing to participate in the draft and enter the palace."
Mrs. Bai immediately raised her head and looked at the five girls Bai Xue, Bai Yue, Bai Lan, Bai Qian and Bai Qian and asked.
The eyes of everyone present also fell on the five women.
Then Bai Xue didn't hesitate at all, knelt down and spoke directly.
"Xue'er and her sister do not want to enter the palace to participate in the talent show. They only want to be able to serve their grandmother and mother at home and ask their grandmother and mother to fulfill their wishes."
Bai Xue knew that if she didn't want to participate in the draft and enter the palace, now would be the best opportunity to get rid of this fate. At the same time, this opportunity was obtained with the help of her Yuxian brother. If she missed this opportunity, it would be really difficult later.
So Bai Xue didn't hesitate at all when hearing what Mrs. Bai said.
Bai Yue, who was still hesitant at first, immediately knelt down after hearing her sister Bai Xue's words.
"Yue'er doesn't want it either. I just want to be able to serve my grandmother and mother at home. I ask my grandmother and mother to help me."
Seeing this, Bai Yuxian couldn't help but glance at Bai Xue appreciatively.
Although Bai Xue is young and an immature girl, she is very decisive in doing things. Knowing that this is an opportunity, she does not want to participate in the draft and enter the palace, so she directly expresses her position without any hesitation.
Otherwise, if Bai Xue hesitates and misses this opportunity to express his position directly at this time, then there may not be such a good opportunity later.
After all, Bai Yuxian is present now, and the words were also spoken by Mrs. Bai. As long as she expresses her position now, even if Mrs. Bai is unhappy afterwards, she will definitely not be able to regret it.
"Lan'er doesn't want to either."
Then seeing Bai Xue and Bai Yue sisters expressing their opinions, Bai Lan, the youngest who also did not want to participate in the draft, immediately knelt down.
So among the five girls, only sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian are left.
In fact, the two sisters did not want to participate in the draft, but when they wanted to express their opinions, Mrs. Wang stared at them with a death stare, causing the two women to freeze up when they were about to kneel down.
They don't want to participate in the draft and enter the palace, but they have to submit to the pressure of their mothers.
Everyone present also instantly noticed Mrs. Wang's eyes and the expressions of sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian.
The scene suddenly seemed a little awkward.
Mrs. Bai also noticed the situation and spoke quickly.
"It's like this. If Xue'er, Yue'er, and Lan'er don't want to enter the palace, there's no need to force them. For this draft, sisters Qian'er and Qian'er will do it."
With the matter settled like this, Mrs. Bai was actually a little worried that sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian would also kneel down and say no, otherwise there would really be no one in Wuhou Mansion for this draft, and that would be a little bit. Hope is gone. Now Bai Yuxian is forced to speak. Bai Xue, Bai Yue and Bai Lan are not going, which is enough in the eyes of Old Taijun Bai.
Although there are only three people missing, Bai Qian and Bai Qian are the only ones left, but Mrs. Bai feels that the hope of sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian to participate will not be reduced much, because sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian are not only beautiful and outstanding in figure, but also the last The main thing is that the appearance of the two sisters is 70-80% similar. The effect of this combination is far more charming than one plus one.
How many men in the world would not like such a pair of beautiful and similar-looking sisters, even if that man is the emperor.
Hearing Mrs. Bai's words, Bai Qian's eyes instantly turned red, while Bai Qian reached out and held her sister's hand tightly to comfort her silently.
Although Bai Yuxian saw it, he couldn't say anything more at this time.
After all, even if she could no longer understand Mrs. Wang's behavior, Bai Qian and Bai Qian were both Mrs. Wang's own daughters and had nothing to do with him, Bai Yuxian. He had said this today, and it was really not easy to take care of it anymore. .
The three girls, Bai Xue, Bai Yue and Bai Lan, instantly looked happy.
Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Mi's expressions were slightly complicated, and they couldn't tell whether they were happy or sad.
Originally, the two of them wanted the three girls to participate in the draft and enter the palace. After all, if they were chosen by the emperor, they would instantly fly up a branch and turn into a phoenix. But now that things were decided, looking at the joy on their daughter's face, they realized that , although my mood is a bit complicated, I don't seem to be too angry or uncomfortable.
"I think it's getting late. Brother Xian, you guys have had a hard time moving in today, so just sit here for now, and come back when you have time tomorrow."
At this time, Mrs. Bai stood up again and said.
Bai Yuxian knew in his heart that Mrs. Bai did not want to stay any longer because of the draft that had just happened, but he was also happy in his heart and stood up.
"Okay, then I'll take you, old lady, to the door. If you have any problems in the future, come and sit with me more often."
After sending Mrs. Bai and others out of the house, the Tiance Mansion became quiet.
However, Liu Yiren and Qin's mother and daughter did not leave and stayed at Tiance Mansion until nightfall.
"I have already made arrangements for the draft. It will be fine if Yi Renqi participates normally, but then you will not be able to pass the draft normally."
When they were alone, Bai Yuxian also told Liu Yi about humanity.
Bai Yuxian asked Gao Lishi for help in this matter, and owed Gao Lishi a favor for this. However, Bai Yuxian was not worried about this. He never worried about owing a favor, he only worried that his favor would be looked down upon by others, especially Gao Lishi. How many people want to owe this kind of favor to the emperor's close servants and favorites, but still can't.
And this kind of thing is naturally easy for Gao Lishi. It is just a matter of one sentence. He only needs to say hello to the person in charge of the draft, and then he can find any reason to swipe Liu Yiren.
Moreover, Liu Yiren's business status is the best excuse.
At the same time, Gao Lishi is naturally very willing to accept Bai Yuxian's favor. After all, Bai Yuxian is highly valued by the emperor and has outstanding civil and military abilities. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Bai Yuxian's future is limitless. In this case, Gao Lishi naturally I am willing to sell white jade to immortals for favors.
Moreover, this in itself is not a big deal, it is just a small effort, even if it is exposed and the emperor knows.
Judging from the emperor's current regard for Bai Yuxian, I'm afraid he would just laugh it off, and he wouldn't even mind being a favor. After all, she is just a woman who has not yet entered the palace.
"After the draft, I will discuss with Aunt Liu and contact your Liu family to discuss our marriage."
"Well, everyone listens to my cousin."
When Liu Yiren heard this, she nodded obediently, feeling very sweet in her heart.
At the same time, in the Wuhou Mansion, there was a different scene, especially in the other courtyard where sisters Bai Qian and Bai Qian lived.
"Mother, my daughter doesn't want to enter the palace either." Bai Qian looked at Mrs. Wang with red eyes, almost pleading.
"No, in this draft, you must participate in entering the palace."
Mrs. Wang directly and sternly objected. After speaking, her tone softened as if she was distressed but helpless.
"Daughter, it's not that I don't love you because of my mother, but in the current situation, I have no choice but to do it for my mother."
"You can also see the situation at home now. Your father's situation in the court is becoming more and more difficult day by day. Our Wuhou Mansion is already getting worse day by day. Your brother Yusheng's autumn examination is also known as Luosunshan. Even if you want to wait until The next autumn exam will be in three years, and who can guarantee what will happen in three years."
"Time waits for no one. The situation in our Wuhou Mansion has reached a dangerous situation. Yusheng will inherit the Wuhou Mansion from now on, and he will also need someone to help him. But the whole family can count on someone to help Yusheng, except you two as sisters." Who else can we count on?”
"Mom also knows that you don't want to enter the palace, and I don't want to force you. But as the legitimate daughter of our Wuhou Mansion, for the sake of the entire Hou Mansion, and for your brother, mother has to do this even if she is heartbroken."
"Mom, I hope you can understand that I have wronged you for the sake of my Wuhou Mansion and for your brother."
Bai Qian burst into tears, filled with reluctance, but facing her mother's words, especially her expectant and pleading eyes, she didn't know how to speak.
Bai Qian's eyes also shone with tears, but compared to her younger sister Bai Qian, she seemed much more mature and calm, so she also spoke at this time.
"The daughter understands the mother's thoughts. The mother can rest assured that the daughter will participate in this draft and enter the palace and will not disappoint the mother."
Mrs. Wang immediately smiled when she heard this.
"Mother knows that you are sensible and will not let mother down."
Seeing that her daughter had been persuaded, Mrs. Wang didn't stay any longer, got up and left the courtyard.
"Sister, I don't want to enter the palace, and I don't expect to fly on a branch and turn into a phoenix. I just want to stay."
"I like Brother Yuxian, I just want to marry Brother Yuxian, I don't want to participate in the draft, wuwu."
As soon as Mrs. Wang left, Bai Qian couldn't help but hugged her sister and cried loudly, and she also said what was in her heart.
She didn't want to enter the palace, nor did she want something to fly up a branch and turn into a phoenix. The emperor was already over fifty years old, and she didn't want to serve an old man as old as her father.
There is only one person she likes in her heart, and that is her clan brother Bai Yuxian.
She just wants to marry her clan brother, even if she is a child.
Listening to her sister's cry, Bai Qian's tearful eyes could no longer hold back, and two lines of clear tears fell down.
What is in his sister's heart is not hers.
The emperor is already in his fifties and can be their father. On the other hand, his elder brother Bai Yuxian is not only as handsome as jade but also has both civil and military skills. Now he is a general of Tiance and has a bright future.
If possible, why would Bai Qian want to enter the palace?
But as the legitimate daughters of the Hou family, their fate is destined not to follow their own wishes.
Moreover, Bai Qian is older and more mature than her sister Bai Qian, and she has more to think about.
As the legitimate daughters of the Hou family, they have enjoyed the superior life and various enjoyments brought by the family since they were young. Therefore, when the family needs her now, Bai Qian feels that she should also bear the corresponding responsibilities and do everything for the family. Something, even if it’s something you don’t want to do.
As the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, she has enjoyed the benefits brought by her family since she was a child. So when the family needs it, she should naturally assume the corresponding obligations and bear the corresponding responsibilities.
However, as a sister, she should bear this responsibility alone.
