The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 18: 18past

Chapter 18 18. The past

Since he was injured and contracted tuberculosis, he has not appeared in public for nearly ten years. I heard that he only occasionally attends royal banquets.

Its really amazing that the Bai family can invite him today!

"He is the seventeenth emperor's uncle? The man who swore allegiance to the king of Southwest Ding's army to the death? Why is he a sick man?"

A few tables away, the childish young man quietly asked.

The words are full of confusion. For young people from aristocratic families, what they worship is Xiao Tingyi, the **** of war. He is a fierce figure who kills gods when gods stand in his way, and kills Buddha when he stands in the way of Buddha.

I really cant understand it.

Speak down, you can arrange a noble person like him at will?

Once the elder brother knew the truth, he immediately scolded him, and then talked about the past with tears in his eyes.

"I think that when His Majesty just ascended the throne and his position was not yet stable, South Vietnam invaded. Thirteen states in the southwestern region were captured by the Tiger Army. King Ding, who was only seventeen years old, was ordered to lead an army of 300,000 to defeat South Vietnam. The 700,000-strong army that came out fought fiercely for several months, not only regaining the lost ground, but also defeating the opponent to the point of defeat. For more than 70 or 30 times, South Vietnam was severely defeated, and this was how the peace and prosperity of the past few years came."

Speaking of excitement, I couldn't help but sob a few times.

Fortunately, they sat sideways and didn't attract anyone's attention.

Then, how could he...become like this?New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on novel(b)in(.)com

I dare not mention the word sick Yangzi again. For such a person to say such a thing, it is completely blasphemy.

Well, its a pity that King Ding was accidentally wounded by the rebel South Vietnamese assassin. If it hadnt been for the rejuvenation of Dr. Zhang at that time, he probably wouldnt have had the chance to appear in the Eastern Capital now.

"Since then, I have contracted tuberculosis, and the soup and medicine given by the emperor to Prince Ding are constantly being used all day long. There were also ministers in the court who wanted to send their daughters to the palace as concubines. Unfortunately, after three or four times in a row, their lives were hanging by a thread, so No one cares about the once famous King Ding anymore.

There was deep regret in his words.

What a pity that such amazing talent and brilliance only shone like a shooting star for a few months before disappearing into the dust of history.

"Hey, if he is still here, I will go with him to join the army, so that the world can see the true nature of my Dajin man!"

Seeing him like this, the people at the table couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly.

After all, he is young and energetic and has no idea about the current situation in the court.

Ever since the heavy defeat of South Vietnam in the First World War, Emperor Qi worked hard to govern for many years. Today, the Jin Dynasty has been daunted by its neighbors, and military generals have gradually been marginalized. There are more scenes of the emperor's disciples quarreling with their colleagues in the court.

Emphasis on culture over military affairs, but it only lasted ten years.

Therefore, most of the sons of aristocratic families devoted themselves to official careers, and few joined the army.

On the contrary, it is a poor family that is difficult to rise to the top and has many generals.

Nowadays, most of the important official positions in the court are in the hands of aristocratic families, those from poor families.

Xu Ge Lao is considered one of the best, so he has many followers from poor families, and his prestige among the people is also greater.

After a few people chatted, Prime Minister Bai had already raised their glasses, and the banquet officially began. Feng Jinyao and Bai Siruo were sitting together with their three aunts, but Bai Sihan sat next to Wei Lanxuan. The eldest lady Lin was a little unhappy, and was about to say a few words, but saw the third lady Shen taking the lead. say.

"Han'er has a good relationship with Miss Wei, and she had to be dragged over to sit down with her, so she didn't come over. Sister-in-law, you don't mind."

Before Mrs. Lin could speak, she immediately answered, "Sister-in-law is kind-hearted, so naturally she won't embarrass the younger generation, right?"

After all these words, if the eldest lady wants to find trouble in the future, and it turns out that she is mean, this third lady should not be underestimated.

"Third aunt, be careful. The Bai family and the Wei family have never had any friendship. Today is just the first time that the two of them have met. They can be so intimate without having to call her back. The master doesn't sit at the head table. Whats the point of being at the guest table? Do you feel like youre a guest?

Bai Siruo's words were spoken urgently and harshly, all directed at Bai Sihan and Mr. Shen. The words were almost scolding her for not knowing the rules.

"You..." Shen was furious and wanted to argue a few words, but was interrupted by Princess Wen Yi next to her.

Siruo must not be rude. She is an elder after all. Why are you being so aggressive?

The family in Prince Kang's Mansion was strict. Princess Wen Yi came from there, so she naturally had strict rules. Although she didn't like Shen and Bai Sihan, she didn't think Bai Sihan's behavior was so disgusting.

She is also a mother, and she also has only one daughter. Naturally, she hopes that she will have a good match. It is not a bad thing to want to marry well.

So he had to be extra tolerant towards the two of them, so he reprimanded Bai Siruo a few words.

Bai Siruo pursed her lips and lowered her head, the handkerchief stirring in her hand revealed her unwillingness.

Feng Jinyao patted her hand gently and whispered a few words to her in her ear. Soon her wrinkled little face relaxed and returned to its former cheerfulness.

Princess Wen Yi looked at her daughter who couldn't hide her thoughts and sighed in her heart. After all, she had been raised so pampered that she didn't know the consequences of getting into trouble. If she married like this, wouldn't she have to suffer a loss in her husband's family? Learn well.

Thinking of this, Princess Wen Yi became very upset. She raised her head to look at the male chairman where her husband was, and happened to glance at her nephew beside her.

I saw that he was tall and strong, and he looked a bit like his sister-in-law, but he was no less majestic. Suddenly, he had a plan in his mind, and even the banquet in front of him started to taste delicious.

On the contrary, Mr. Shen, who had been robbed of his white child, had a long face and looked at Bai Siruo with his eyes, full of jealousy and dissatisfaction.

Her husband is the concubine of Bai Xiang. He didn't get much love when he was a child. He was not promoted after becoming a Jinshi. He had to go to Qiongzhou to start from a small ninth-rank sesame official.

Fortunately, he was also very motivated. He worked hard for many years, managed everything, and made friends with his own family. With the help of his natal father, Lingzhou Zhizhou, he got the official position of Qiongzhou Zhizhou.

Although the eldest brother Bai Chaoan also holds a fifth-grade official position, he is an official in the capital and is a scholar of the Imperial Academy, so he is naturally higher than Bai Sanlang.

So in her opinion, Bai Xiangs father really didnt do a very good job. What happened to the bastard? Isn't it also his bloodline?

He just took care of the old pious woman of the Xu family and let them stay away for more than ten years.

This time I finally managed to wait until my husband could go to Beijing to report on his work. This time I had to find a way to stay in the Eastern Capital no matter what.

Seeing Princess Wen Yi eating happily, Mrs. Lin also accompanied Mrs. Bai with a smile on her face and toasted to the wives of dignitaries. Mrs. Shen felt as if her food was stuck in her throat and it was difficult to swallow.
