Chapter 68

Gongzi Huan, that is, Tian Huan, the second son of King Jian of Qi today.

Hearing the news of his arrival, Jimo Huaxue's face changed slightly.

She moved closer to Bai Yuan and whispered: "Today my father held a birthday banquet, just to celebrate it a little. In fact, only some relatives and friends with good relationship were invited to the banquet, and Prince Huan was not invited at all."

Bai Yuan showed a smile, took her hand and patted the back of her hand lightly.

He had already discovered what she said.

Although Jimoxi is a doctor in Jimo, with a high official position and real power in his hands, he is a good official, just and pragmatic, and he doesn't like extravagance and waste.

So even the birthday party was only held on a small scale and very low-key.

Now that young master Huan came here uninvited, I'm afraid he has some other purpose.

As for the purpose, Bai Yuan looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and the answer was self-evident.

"Don't worry, I'm here. Since Gongzi Huan is visiting, we naturally have to meet. Otherwise, it will be easy to follow the truth and it will be detrimental to the Jimo family."

Jimo Huaxue also nodded slightly, and the two walked towards the front hall holding hands.

At this moment in the front hall, Young Master Huan was chatting with Jimoxi.

The others watched from the side without saying much.

It was originally just a small banquet between relatives and friends, and everyone was very lively, but because of the arrival of Mr. Huan, it suddenly became quite deserted.

Everyone present was obviously a little uncomfortable.

Young Master Huan also realized this and smiled and said to everyone: "There is no Young Master today. I am just here to wish Uncle Jimo his birthday as a junior. You don't need to pay attention to me."

Although he said so, how dare everyone really ignore him?

However, he spoke, and everyone present had no choice but to cooperate.

Seeing that the scene was lively again, Gong Zihuan showed a satisfied smile.

He made an apologetic gesture towards Jimoxi: "I was a bit outrageous just now, and I hope my uncle will forgive me."

Jimoxi nodded slightly and smiled perfunctorily.

"My lord is serious!"

Young Master Huan opened his mouth and was about to ask Jimo Huaxue why she hadn't come yet when he saw her figure.

But the next moment, his face changed slightly.

Because there was a man more handsome than him who came with her, and the two of them held hands together!
Seeing this scene, it was not only him who changed his face, but also Ning Yan who was holding Xue'er.

She knew that Bai Yuan was taken to the backyard by Jimo Huaxue, and she guessed that the two of them would definitely talk about learning swordsmanship, so she didn't follow him.

But I didn't expect that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the two of them became so close. Although she did say yesterday that Bai Yuan should marry Jimo Huaxue, she still felt upset.

Judging from their current appearance, Jimo Huaxue must have not only agreed to learn swordsmanship from Bai Yuan, but may have also made her intentions clear.

So angry!Obviously she came first!
Han Fei, who was standing next to Ningyan, felt a sharp aura coming from her, and could not help but dodge to the side.

"Uncle Master, there is really no one around him who is simple."

He thought to himself, the aura just now cannot be possessed by an ordinary maid.

Looking at this posture, he can only pray for Bai Yuan, hoping that he can pass the night safely.

Unlike Gongzi Huan and Ningyan, Jimoxi's eyes almost lit up when he saw that they were holding hands.

It seems that Huaxue has also figured it out!

Bai Yuan and the others came to Jimo Xi and Gongzi Huan, and bowed slightly to Gongzi Huan.

"I've seen your son!"

Prince Huan looked at Jimo River, pointed at Bai Yuan and asked, "I wonder who this is?"

Jimoxi hurriedly introduced: "This is Mr. Bai Yuan, a disciple of the Taoist Tianzong, who is a student of Master Beiming."

"I didn't expect to be Master Beiming's high-ranking apprentice!" Young Master Huan Lu was a little surprised, and then a trace of doubt appeared on his face, "But I heard that Master Beiming hadn't accepted an apprentice for many years. When did he have another apprentice?"

Seeing him doubting Bai Yuan's identity, Jimo Xi showed a trace of displeasure.

Isn't he questioning his vision by saying this?

"Why do you need to tell others about Master Beiming's apprenticeship?"

At this time, Han Fei came out to speak for Bai Yuan,

Bai Yuan never thought that he would take the initiative to take this muddy water.

Young Master Huan looked at Han Fei, and then explained very calmly: "Master Beiming accepts disciples without telling others. I am just curious and have no intention of offending Master Beiming."

Jimoxi made a sound at the right time to smooth things over: "Mr. Bai Yuan's identity cannot be faked, and this was admitted by Confucian Master Xun himself."

Hearing that he had moved out of Xun Kuang, Gong Zihuan also knew that his suspicion was meaningless.

He quickly regained his composure and looked at Bai Yuan with a smile.

"Just now, I have offended you so much, sir, please forgive me!"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about it, young master."

The so-called reaching out and not slapping people with smiling faces, Bai Yuan would take the initiative to apologize when he saw him, so naturally he didn't pursue it.

Young Master Huan took another look at Jimo Huaxue, and found that her eyes had never left Bai Yuan, knowing that he came here for nothing today.

However, he still maintained the demeanor that he should have. On the surface, he seemed calm and breezy, as if he really just came to celebrate Jimoxi's birthday.

Tian Huan's performance made Bai Yuan a little confused.

If it were someone else, I'm afraid there will be a bloody drama here, but the demeanor shown by Gongzi Huan is really shocking.

He even finished a lunch here with a calm expression before taking people away.

He also didn't mention anything about Jimo Huaxue, and there was nothing wrong with the whole process.

But the more this happened, the more vigilant Bai Yuan became.

At the end of the day, the happiest place is naturally Jimo River.

Although there were some minor situations in the middle because of the arrival of Gongzi Huan, the result was very gratifying.

After seeing off the last guest, Jimoxi specially found Bai Yuan and planned to have a talk with him.

In the back garden, Jimo Xi and Bai Yuan sat in the pavilion, drinking tea and staying silent for a long time.

Jimoxi asked earnestly, "What does my nephew think of Young Master Huan?"

Bai Yuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that what Jimo Xi was most concerned about was not his affairs with Jimo Huaxue, but Gongzi Huan.

After thinking for a while, he only uttered eight words: "Hiding the front and keeping the clumsy, don't use Qianlong."

Jimoxi's eyes lit up, he stroked his beard and nodded slightly.

"The good nephew is indeed extraordinary. You are right. This young master Huan is usually very low-key and does not have much contact with my Jimo family. Today he suddenly came here. It was called birthday wishes. In fact, it was for Hua Xue, or in other words, for Hua Xue. It’s not easy to get support from the Jimo family!”

"I don't have any ambitions. I just want to protect the Jimo City for the Qi State. I don't want to get involved in too many disputes. Fortunately, my nephew is here this time to help the Jimo family escape this disaster."

Hearing this, Bai Yuan felt a little embarrassed.

Jimo Huaxue is the center of this incident, he was directly abducted by others, this is a way of helping.
"Uncle, Huaxue and I"

Bai Yuan originally wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jimo Xi's wave of his hand.

"I won't get involved in your affairs, and my nephew doesn't need to explain to me. Now that Hua Xue has made her choice, I also said that I won't stop her. I just hope you can treat her better."

Bai Yuan got up and saluted him.

"Please rest assured, uncle, I will take good care of her!"

"Good! Good!" Jimoxi helped Bai Yuan up, and then urged, "Nephew, although Young Master Huan seems to be polite to you today, you should pay more attention."

Bai Yuan nodded: "I will."
