Transmigration: Save My Chastity

[19] Visit To Future In Laws

Emperor Xian Long Wei had informed General Bai Jian Yu that he would be visiting them today to formally ask for Zhan Chen's hand in marriage since he hadn't asked for Lady Bai's permission yet. The general was silent when he heard that and struggled to hold down his hand from pulling his sword and started to kill someone with the surname Xian. Even if the general looked grave and was about to murder someone, he still gritted his teeth and finally uttered a syllable, "En."

Xian Long Wei knew how hard it was for this loving father to allow a man to court his ger son and he was so nervous that General Bai would go back on his words.

But once he heard that forced, "En", he almost couldn't help himself from hugging the older man. Fortunately, he still remembered his position and the dark look from Bai Jian Yu himself stopped him.

So, today, adorning his most handsome, casual yet formal koi patterned black hanfu embroidered with highest quality of golden threads, Xian Long Wei put behind his grandiose yellow dragon robe to appear more sincere and yet handsome. He didn't want to look too formal in front of his Chen Chen's family.

Since, he didn't have a family, Xian Long Wei brought with him old Head Eunuch as his chaperon.

The Head Eunuch didn't ask anything as he just listened to what the Emperor ordered him to do. What he understood was, they were going to ask for some ger's hand in marriage.

Who is the ger?

His Majesty Xian Long Wei hadn't told him anything.

So, without knowing the candidate of Xian Dynasty's future Empress, Head Eunuch solemnly vowed to make sure that everything would move smoothly.

This is for the sake of Xian Dynasty's future heir ba!

It was the first time His Majesty was interested in someone and that ger must be someone great.

With that in his old mind, Head Eunuch boarded the second carriage behind the Emperor's carriage.

Together with the gifts, there were four carriages heading toward the General Bai's House. Though, it were four carriages, it didn't stand out much. They were only slightly bigger than normal.

It didn't take long for the journey to General Bai's house. After half an hour incense, they had arrived in front of the strong wooden gate.

The old Head Eunuch was surprised but he had heard before that His Majesty had brought some ger to his Palace. But, he didn't know that the ger would be General Bai's only ger son! This was a shock but also a pleasant surprise. General Bai's family was an upright people and it would be good for His Majesty to marry someone from Bai's family.

Old Head Eunuch watched from the window as one of the gatekeepers went to the coachman in the first carriage.

"May I know what is your business here?"

The coachman said in a steady voice, "The Emperor has an audience with General Bai."

At the same time, Emperor Xian Long Wei walked down from the carriage.

"Your Majesty!" the gatekeepers immediately kneeled down.

Xian Long Wei waved his hand, "Stand up. There is no need to kneel. Please tell General Bai that Zhèn has arrived."

"Also, Head Eunuch, please tell the men to bring the gifts with them. Be careful with the gifts."

Head eunuch who had came down before the emperor bowed a bit, "Yes, Your Majesty. This official understands Your Majesty's order."

One of the gatekeepers went to inform the household master and soon, General Bai, Lady Bai and Prime Minister Li went out to greet the emperor.

"Prime Minister Li, General Bai and Lady Bai. Zhèn hope this visit won't disturbing you three. It's nice to meet Prime Minister Li here, " Emperor Xian Long Wei smiled, he was surprised with the appearance of the Prime Minister but since they were all family, Lady Bai must have informed him.
