"No matter what the final result of the reward is, it is a worthwhile trip for me to successfully quell the turmoil in Hongqingshan and stabilize my current position." Bai Yuxian said.
Li Mi nodded when she heard this, and said with a smile: "And no matter what, with this battle alone, the emperor will definitely think more highly of Bai Lang in the future."
This is the most valuable point. After all, as long as you can get the respect of the emperor, it will not be easy to be promoted in the future. On the other hand, if you can't get the respect of the emperor, then no matter how high your position is now, it will be of no use. When did you go down?
"By the way, after Bai Lang went out to fight, Mingyue often came to my place." Li Mi suddenly said as if she thought of something, and raised her beautiful eyes to look at Bai Yuxian.
"Princess Mingyue?" Bai Yuxian's expression changed when he heard this, and he instantly guessed the identity of the person Li Mi was talking about. The only one who is qualified to come to Li Mi and be called Mingyue is the favored one in the Tang Dynasty. Princess Mingyue Li Mingyue.
Li Mingyue is the daughter of Li Longji and Li Longji's current favorite concubine Yu Fei. She is regarded as Li Mi's biological niece, and Li Mi is Li Mingyue's biological aunt.
However, in Bai Yuxian's impression, Li Mi had never told him about Li Mingyue before, and Li Mingyue had never taken the initiative to visit Li Mi. The relationship between the two did not seem to be very close.
Why now Li Mingyue suddenly started to run to Li Mi diligently.
Feeling Bai Yuxian's confused look on her, Li Mi couldn't help but angrily pinched Bai Yuxian's waist and said angrily.
"Do you know why Mingyue suddenly came to me so diligently?"
"Why, is it still because of me?"
Bai Yuxian suddenly thought of the way Li Mingyue looked at him when he met Li Mingyue.
After listening to Bai Yuxian's words, Li Mi couldn't help but give Bai Yuxian an angry look, wondering if it wasn't because of you or because of me.
Although she and Li Mingyue were aunt and nephew, their previous relationship was not very close and they could be regarded as strangers related by blood.
But after Bai Yuxian left for the war, Li Mingyue suddenly came to her, and he came every three or five after that.
Li Mi was still confused at first, but gradually, as Li Mingyue came to her more often and she became familiar with her and started asking her for news about Bai Yuxian, Li Mi suddenly understood that Li Mingyue came to see her not because of her. He came here entirely for Bai Yuxian.
Because now everyone in the capital knows that she has a close relationship with Bai Yuxian, and their relationship is both teacher and friend to the outside world. Bai Yuxian often comes to her to discuss Taoism. At the same time, she has the favor of supporting and recommending Bai Yuxian, so Bai Yuxian I often come to Yuzhen Temple to sit and discuss Taoism.
It was precisely because of learning this news that Li Mingyue took the initiative to come to Li Mi.
Li Mingyue wanted to get closer to Bai Yuxian through Li Mi.
"How Bai Lang plans to handle this matter."
Li Mi looked at Bai Yuxian with beautiful eyes, and at the same time she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Li Mingyue was worried and scared about Bai Yuxian's thoughts and ideas.
Because according to her original idea, she planned to announce the relationship between the two after Bai Yuxian became a marquis and became prime minister, and then she would openly ask her royal brother to marry Bai Yuxian.
But now Li Mingyue suddenly appeared and expressed her feelings for Bai Yuxian, and Li Mi couldn't help but worry, because according to her identity and bloodline, Li Mingyue was her biological niece.
It would be fine if it was another woman. After all, every powerful man in this world doesn't have three wives and four concubines in his house. She will not interfere with Bai Yuxian's finding other women, as long as they treat her well.
But Li Mingyue can't do it, because Li Mingyue is her niece. If Li Mingyue marries Bai Yuxian, how can she disclose her relationship with Bai Yuxian and marry Bai Yuxian in the future? When the time comes, the aunt and nephew will serve the same husband, even if they themselves are willing to Li Longji They will definitely not be willing to do so, and may even be so angry that they want to chop off Bai Yuxian's head.
But if Li Mingyue was really determined to like Bai Yuxian, she would even tell her brother the matter.
Based on his emperor's current love for Bai Yuxian, I am afraid he will be even more happy to see the result, and at the same time, he can win over Bai Yuxian's heart on a deeper level.
When Bai Yuxian heard this, he thought to himself, "Can I do it all?"
After all, my aunt and nephew are BUFF.
And both of them are princesses, and both of them are very charming.
Of course, Bai Yuxian would definitely not say this, but said with suspicion on his face.
"I remember that I have never met this Princess Mingyue. Could it be that Li Yueming, who was disguised as a man and accompanied King Ruyang at the Qionglin Banquet last time, is Princess Mingyue? But even if it is, it is just a one-time relationship. Is it us? There was a misunderstanding”
Li Mi was completely stunned when she heard this.
Looking at Bai Yuxian's beautiful and flawless face in front of him and the doubt on Bai Yuxian's face, he is obsessed with pride and helpless.
I thought to myself, why don’t you take a good look in the mirror? With your face, no woman would be confused by it. She herself didn’t control it at the first sight, and then she became even more thorough under Bai Yuxian’s several active attacks. Fall.
This is true for her, let alone other women.
Li Mi suddenly felt that it was not all a good thing that her man was too good, especially with such a handsome face.
That is to say, the era of the empress has passed. Otherwise, Bai Yuxian's face would have been directly captured by the empress and become a forbidden concubine in the palace.
"It seems that Bai Lang hasn't realized how attractive he is to our women. Although Ming Yue hasn't said it yet, I can tell that Ming Yue is probably deeply in love with Bai Lang."
"In this case, it seems that I need to avoid Princess Mingyue from now on, let alone let His Majesty know about it. Otherwise, His Majesty knows that if the marriage is really granted, how can I marry Mi'er openly in the future? It's really If not, let’s make our relationship public first.”
Bai Yuxian immediately said firmly.
Li Mi's heart suddenly trembled when she heard this, and she felt as if her whole heart melted in an instant.
I even suddenly felt that as long as I had Bai Yuxian's words and Bai Yuxian's affection, even if I had no status and could not marry Bai Yuxian openly, as long as I could be with Bai Yuxian, nothing else seemed to be that important.
And if Bai Yuxian explicitly avoids or rejects Li Mingyue like this, she may make Li Mingyue unhappy and offend Li Mingyue and even Li Mingyue's mother, Concubine Jade.
After all, as a woman, she knows very well that a woman can love someone to the core, but she can also hate a person to the core because of love.
If Bai Yuxian really gained an enemy like Li Mingyue because of this incident, the impact on Bai Yuxian would undoubtedly be huge, especially since Li Mingyue’s mother, Concubine Yu, is still the beloved concubine next to her imperial brother. The threat of speaking ill of Bai Yuxian is self-evident.
Thinking of this, Li Mi immediately shook her head.
"No, if Bai Lang offends Ming Yue so easily, it may even make Ming Yue hate you because of his love for Bai Lang, and Ming Yue is also deeply in love with you, Bai Lang. There is no need to deliberately avoid it, everything can develop naturally."
"If the imperial brother really gives Mingyue a marriage to Bai Lang, then we will remain as we are now. As long as I can be with Bai Lang, Mi'er and I will be satisfied."
"I said that in this life, I will definitely marry you, Mi'er, openly and honestly."
Bai Yuxian was silent for a while and said firmly.
The worst he can do is wait until he conquers the world and becomes the emperor before marrying. At that time, it will be meaningful to see who in the world dares to do so.
Don't say that Li Mi and Li Mingyue are just aunt-nephew, they can even be mother and daughter.
Who dares to say a word no.
Li Mi felt sweet and moved when she heard Bai Yuxian's words. Her delicate body, which had just recovered a little strength, also took the initiative to turn over and ride on Bai Yuxian.
Just take the initiative and start racing.
At sunset, Bai Yuxian left Li Mi in Yuzhen Temple.
At the same time, Bai Yuxian couldn't help but reflect on himself.
Are you a bit scumbag?
"General."
"General."
"Husband."
Not long after, Bai Yuxian returned all the way to Tiance Mansion's home and walked into the inner palace amidst the greetings from everyone in the mansion.
Dinner has been prepared at home and is waiting for him.
"Jade Immortal is back, hurry up and eat."
Seeing Bai Yuxian coming back, Mrs. Zhen immediately said happily.
"Okay, mother and mother-in-law, please sit down first. Don't worry about me. There are no outsiders at home and you don't need to worry about too many red tapes. Just be casual. Sit down and eat together."
Bai Yuxian also smiled and nodded, walked over and sat down on the main seat, and then her mother Zhen, mother-in-law Qin, and five concubines, Han Shiyin, Xiangling, Liu Yiren, Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi, took their seats one after another.
In fact, in wealthy families in this era, it is common for women not to serve at the table.
However, these rules are good and bad. You can learn and follow the good ones, but there is no need to follow the bad ones.
On weekdays, if there are guests at home, especially male guests, Bai Yuxian will naturally not let his mother, mother-in-law, and wife eat at the same table.
But when there are no outsiders, Bai Yuxian always advocates eating together at home and not paying too much attention to too many red tapes.
Zhen didn't object to Bai Yuxian's decision, because she also felt that it would be nice for the family to have dinner together on weekdays without outsiders, and it would be harmonious and lively.
As the heads of the family, Bai Yuxian and Mrs. Zhen have decided this way, and the other daughters will naturally not object, and all the daughters also like this harmonious family atmosphere.
"Mom, after dinner, I will go to my father-in-law's place. Shiyin will go with me."
At the dinner table, Bai Yuxian spoke again, planning to go to his father-in-law Han Su's place later.
"As it should be."
Mrs. Zhen nodded when she heard this. Now that Han Shiyin is Bai Yuxian's wife, the Han Mansion and the Tiance Mansion have a close relationship.
Bai Yuxian and Han Suweng's son-in-law were both officials in the same court and held important positions, and they complemented each other in culture and military affairs.
Whether it is emotional or rational, both sides should move more.
"But over at Wuhou Mansion, when the old lady left, she asked you to come over and sit down when you have time." Zhen said again, and then looked at Bai Yuxian.
Zhen knew that Bai Yuxian definitely didn't have much affection for Wuhou Mansion, especially for Mrs. Bai and others.
However, the clan relationship lies here. After all, they are both from the Bai family of Wuhou Mansion. This relationship is destined to be irresistible even if they want to, and Wuhou Mansion has always shown goodwill to Tiance Mansion.
Qin, Han Shiyin, Xiang Ling, Liu Yiren, Liu Hongxiu, and Li Shishi immediately looked at Bai Yuxian. Naturally, they all knew about the situation in Wuhou Mansion.
And they all knew in their hearts that the current Wuhou Mansion actually wanted to conquer their Tiance Mansion.
After all, Bai Yuxian is now at the height of his power. He has been favored by the emperor and given an important task. He has been appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Tiance Army and has been named the General of Tiance. This time, he has put down the turmoil in Hongqingshan, Xiangzhou. For such great achievements, both Zhen and Han Shiyin were awarded the title of Madam. .
This shows how smooth Bai Yuxian's career will be in the future.
On the other hand, the situation in Wuhou Mansion is getting worse and worse. Not only is Bai Zheng's situation in the court becoming more and more critical, but the key is that the entire Wuhou Mansion family has no successor. This is the most terrible thing.
Under such circumstances, it is reasonable for the Wuhou Mansion's family to want to conquer the Tiance Mansion.
Bai Yuxian pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"Well, after I get back from my father-in-law, I'll go to Wuhou Mansion again."
"That's fine."
