Chapter 223 Are you willing to marry me?

 The mourning hall of the Hua family was crowded with people.

 In the illumination of the lanterns in the hands of the servants, the court clothes worn by those people are particularly obvious.

 Baili Fengming stood in front of everyone, wearing a white auspicious cloud robe and a green jade pendant tied around his waist.

 Under the drizzle, he stood with his hands behind his hands, and his already handsome facial features showed a bit of immortality.

Fan Qingyao came slowly, accompanied by Yue Luo, and their eyes met. The look in those dark eyes was still familiar and restrained, but if you look closely, you can read the doting hidden in them.

Fan Qingyao should bow first and say, "My maid, please see His Highness the Crown Prince."

 Baili Fengming raised his hand for a moment and said, "I happened to be discussing with a few ministers about going to offer incense to the heroes of the Hua family, so I asked Miss Qingyao to lead the way."

Fan Qingyao stood up and made a gesture of invitation to the mourning hall in front of him.

The expressions of the ministers who were following Baili Fengming suddenly became subtle.

They don’t have much friendship with the tiger people from the Hua family. The reason why they can stand here now is just because they were ‘invited’ by the prince.

 After all, it is very unlucky for a dead person, even if it is a spiritual place.

It’s strange that these ministers feel happy when they hear that they want to go in to offer incense.

Baili Fengming seemed to see the dilemma of these ministers, and immediately said apologetically, "If you are not in a hurry, please wait here for a while, I will go back."

Although the ministers felt in their hearts that the prince was too clinging to the throne in order to curry favor with the emperor, they still did not dare to show it on their faces. They nodded and bowed their heads and said, "Your Highness, the prince, speaks volumes."

The emperor just came to Huajia during the day today. No matter what the reason was, it seemed to outsiders that the emperor still valued Huajia.

In the evening, as the prince, Baili Fengming not only came in a hurry, but also brought a group of civil servants with him. These civil servants are all good at handling the situation in the court. I am afraid that early tomorrow morning, the prince will follow the emperor to visit Hua Hua. Family matters will be spread in the court.

The more public Baili Fengming behaves, the more relieved that person becomes.



 As for the ministers present...

I'm afraid that this time the Hua family and his entourage will quietly stand behind Baili Fengming.

  After all, everyone hopes that the person they stand in line with can listen to others, so that they can continue to stand stably in the court, rely on their old age, and show off their power.

Fan Qingyao looked at Baili Fengming who showed modesty and prudence, but did not want to miss out on his loyalty to the emperor. He really killed two birds with one stone. Not only did he let that man down his guard, but he also bribed many ministers.

 What a plan!

When Fan Qingyao saw that the ministers were almost the same as Baili Fengming, he ordered, "Yueluo, please go to the front hall for a while, and then order someone to make a pot of tea and serve cakes to entertain you. "

 The spring rain was cold and cold, and these ministers were already feeling uncomfortable from being soaked in the rain.

As soon as they heard this, several people immediately followed Yue Luo towards the front hall.

 The mourning hall of the Hua family is quiet and quiet.

Baili Fengming respectfully offered incense to the several tablets placed there.

Fan Qingyao looked at the figure bending towards the memorial tablets of his uncles and said softly, "I know it well, so why is this necessary?"

 Baili Fengming carefully inserted the incense in his hand into the incense burner, then turned around and said, "A man from the Hua family is brave and loyal, and he serves the country with all his heart. He can certainly deserve the worship of anyone in Xiliang."

His narrow black eyes were honest and aboveboard, making no secret of his admiration and admiration.

Fan Qingyao had mixed feelings in his heart.

Had that person been able to face the Hua family in this way, the Hua family would not be where it is today.

"The uncles have settled in Huaishang. When the storm subsides, the Hua family will recruit soldiers again. Soon the Hua family army will return to the sight of the people of Xiliang. The Hua family army will exert great influence on the prince's political path. "Fan Qingyao looked at Baili Fengming and spoke bluntly.

The thoughts of Concubine Yu and Baili Rongze are clearly visible. Baili Fengming also needs private soldiers if he wants to ascend the throne.

 Baili Fengming had already calculated that Fan Qingyao secretly protected the Hua family man and would never let the Hua family man live an ignoble life, but he never thought that she would be so bold...

But he was even more fortunate for her outspokenness.

 This shows that she finally began to believe him.

 “What does Ayao want?”

"When the prince ascends the throne, the Hua Family Army will not surrender to the imperial court. As long as I, Fan Qingyao, are here, I will ensure that the Hua Family Army will not rebel. My Hua Family is dedicated to serving the people and the country. I, the Hua Family Army, will be a wise and benevolent king." He will definitely live up to it. After a hundred years, Hua Jiajun is willing to submit to the imperial court and become Xiliang's right-hand man."

 Supporting the crown prince's ascension to the throne is the only chance for the Hua family's army to see the light of day again and for the Hua family to rise again.

Fan Qingyao controlled everything within the time limit within his control. After all, after waiting for her for a hundred years, no one knew whether the continued Hua family would decay, so he handed over the Hua family army to the court in advance in exchange for a marquis position. First, it will not tarnish the name of the Hua family due to decay, and second, it can protect the peace of the Hua family's descendants.

 Baili Fengming looked at Fan Qingyao who had everything under control, but smiled without saying a word.

 Everyone else would take one step at a time and see one step at a time, but she managed to take one step at a time and see the ninety-nine steps. Even though he knew that she was still wary of him, he was not in a hurry.

Take it easy.

 This time, there is always time.

“In the Battle of Huaishang, the world only knows that the Hua family won a complete victory, but they don’t know that iron ore was discovered in several mountains near Huaishang. Although my father has not disclosed this matter yet, he is already secretly looking for candidates to oversee it.”

Fan Qingyao’s eyes widened and his heart surged.

Even knowing such a secret thing, I'm afraid Baili Fengming's hand has already touched the imperial palace.

 No wonder Baili Fengming came to offer incense with such fanfare. It turned out that he wanted to be trusted to take over the mining.

She only knew that her uncles' deaths could not be hidden from him, but she did not expect that he even knew about her plan to hoard troops.

As long as Baili Fengming accepts the mining, not only can his uncles be safe on Huaihe River, but he can also hide the Hua family and recruit troops.

Sure enough, when competing with such people in a battle of wits and courage, it is better to speak frankly and support each other for mutual benefit.

A gust of cool wind carrying moisture suddenly blew into the mourning hall.

The damp wind rolled up the skirts of the two people, and even blew the tablets placed on the incense table around.

Fan Qingyao quickly stepped forward to stabilize the tablet, but he never thought that Baili Fengming would also take action.

The next second, Fan Qingyao bumped into Baili Fengming's lean back.

 The rain was still falling, the wind gradually subsided, and the only sound in the mourning hall was the sound of each other's breathing.

The smell of Zishu Xiang filled his nose, and Fan Qingyao's heart beat suddenly as if it was about to be knocked out of his chest.

Sensing that Baili Fengming had turned around, Fan Qingyao quickly took a step back, but this time, he did not let her pull away. His slender fingers grasped her wrist first.

 Baili Fengming exerted his strength, and Fan Qingyao took another step forward, her plump forehead pressing against his lips.

He lowered his eyes slightly and looked at her who was close at hand. His breathing was slightly heavy, and he was obviously emotional.

Fan Qingyao's whole body was stiff, as if his acupuncture points had been tapped, and he had even forgotten how to dodge.

Baili Fengming looked at the gently trembling eyelashes and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Fan Qingyao, if you completely let down your guard against me, will you be my wife?"

Fan Qingyao wanted to retreat, "I don't want to."

She is standing here, not for the purpose of falling in love.

Baili Fengming took a step further, and the hand holding her wrist also wrapped its arms around her slender waist domineeringly.

 Smiling low, his lips brushed against her long curly eyelashes, "What should we do? I can no longer let you go alone."

Fan Qingyao clenched his hands.

 My throat was rolling, but I couldn't say a word.

In the last life, she also showed her heart to each other nakedly, but in the end, all she got in exchange was a broken corpse.

In this life, she does not dare to talk about love, and is only focused on enmity and debt.

 But he…

However, it became all the variables for her.

 A small, furry, fat ball-like thing crawled across the threshold awkwardly.

He was really so fat that when he landed on the threshold, he rolled directly to the feet of the two people in the mourning hall.

Fan Qingyao bent down and picked up Ta Xue, who was covered in white fur, and made a gesture to escape from Baili Fengming's control.

 She did not raise her head and only said, "Consider your Highness the Crown Prince."

 Baili Fengming straightened his sleeves, his breathing instantly returned to normal, and he was once again the gentle young man who had been banished to immortality.

Just when he was leaving, he lowered his voice again and said, "What I said is not child's play. You should think about it carefully."

After finishing his words, he glanced at Taxue who was being held in his arms, and stepped out.

Ta Xue looked pitifully at Baili Fengming's leaving figure, her ears hunched up like pig ears.

 Why do you suddenly feel abandoned?
