After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 370 Matchmaking

For the sake of the Jiang family, no matter how painful and uncomfortable his heart was, he would bite it into pieces and swallow it with blood.

The most critical issue now is Chen Xingwei and Princess Yong.

The person in the Jiang family who knew about the incident is now dead. Chen Xingwei was a participant back then and an official appointed by the court. Killing him rashly would cause trouble.

As for Princess He Yong, we have to find a way to conceal it completely.

We can only start with Chen Xingwei.

Getting rid of him is equivalent to removing the biggest hidden danger.

Yuan Qing wandered outside Jiang's house for a long time and returned very late.

When he got up the next day, he heard An San coming to report that Jiang Qisheng had gone to Yunfeng Mountain with Old Madam Jiang to recuperate and would not return to the court for the time being.

After Chen Xingwei dealt with Wang Fugui, he inexplicably felt that there were several more eyes staring at him in secret.

His premonitions have always been accurate, so he kept a low profile for several days.

Some rumors gradually spread in the capital.

Chen Xingwei was nervous. Soon after the wind blew into the capital, he sensed the danger inside and took some measures in advance to divert the wind elsewhere.

His movement instead aroused Princess He Yong's vigilance, and she also reached out and stirred it.

There are other people involved.

No one paid attention to it at first, but as the news grew stronger, many people began to sense something different in it.

As a result, this trend became more and more powerful and chaotic, and finally blew onto the emperor's desk.

Yuan Qing had been keeping an eye on developments in various parts of the capital, so he naturally knew who had first spread the rumor.

But he was targeting Chen Xingwei, so of course she was happy to see it happen and to lend a hand.

But compared to Chen Xingwei, there was obviously someone who was even more frightened than him.

Bai Xianliang had not attended court for several days in a row. He was frightened to such an extent that he fell seriously ill and was bedridden.

Bai Ke didn't understand why his father was like this, so he could only serve him wholeheartedly every day.

The servant came to report: "Master, Young Master, and Princess Yong are here."

Bai Xianliang hurriedly climbed up from the bed, but he had not eaten or drunk anything for many days and his body was very weak. He only sat for a while before falling down again, breathing heavily.

"Master Bai is still ill, so please don't be so polite."

Bai Xianliang smacked his lips, and Bai Ke quickly poured some water and handed it to him.

After drinking some water, the dryness in my throat was relieved a little.

"How dare I trouble the princess to come and visit me in person?" Bai Xianliang knelt on the bed and bowed deeply. He pushed his son with his other hand and said, "Quick, find a seat for the princess and serve her tea."

Bai Ke put down the cup, bowed and went out.

Princess He Yong looked at Bai Ke with joy in her eyes, "I have heard for a long time that Lord Xiao Bai is elegant and handsome, and now that I see him, it is indeed true."

Bai Xianliang was in much better spirits at this time. After hearing Princess He Yong's praise, he said hurriedly, "My son is a mediocre talent and will never amount to anything. Princess, you are too kind to praise me."

Princess He Yong ordered the nanny to bring in the best medicinal herbs and said gently, "Master Bai works hard day and night. It's a good thing to worry about state affairs, but you can't ignore your own body."

Bai Ke personally brewed hot tea and served it to the princess first, then went to serve his father.

He did everything himself from beginning to end without any servants doing anything.

Although Princess He Yong didn't say anything, her eyes were always on Bai Ke, and she became more and more satisfied with him the more she looked at him.

Although the Bai family is not considered a prominent family in the capital, fortunately the family has a simple population and a good family tradition.

If Yao'er married into the family, she wouldn't have to suffer any bullying, nor would she have to worry all day about other women jeopardizing her status.

What's more, Bai Ke has always been fond of Yao'er. If he can persuade Yao'er to marry him, then this marriage will be a match made in heaven.

Even if he changes his mind in the future, with Yaoer's identity as Princess of the Yuan Dynasty, wouldn't it be easy for her to control the small Bai family?

From this perspective, Bai Ke is indeed a rare good husband and is qualified to be Yao'er's match.
