I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 764 Sun Kong, the leader of the Knights

Bai Mi was quite favored among the princes of the Bai family, and he had a smooth journey from the palace gate to the main hall.

The maid Patani was guarding outside the queen's bedroom. When she saw Bai Mi coming from afar, she immediately went to greet him.

"Your Highness, His Majesty is offering sacrifices. Please wait a moment."

Why are they burning incense when it's not a festival? The old lady is not someone who respects gods.

Bai Mi quietly retreated to the doorway, his arrogant expression subsiding considerably. The Bai family had many royal descendants, and Bai Mi's favor from the Queen stemmed not only from his eyes, which resembled those of Emperor Bai Pu, but also from his ability to judge people and serve them well.

The violent grandson is very well-behaved in front of his violent grandmother.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still no movement in the hall.

Bai Mi was stunned for a moment, looking towards the palace door. Finally, just as his patience was about to run out, a deep bell sounded from within the palace.

Patani, who had been looking at her nose and her heart a second ago, immediately reacted and bowed deeply to Bai Mi, "Your Highness, please."

Bai Mi lowered his head to adjust his clothes, and after making sure that he had not acted in a disrespectful manner, he took a deep breath and strode into the main hall.

Inside the hall, Baijula, dressed in an elegant traditional purple silk dress and holding a pure gold ladle, patiently watered a pot of rare orchids. Her posture remained upright, and her movements were slow and steady, showing no trace of old age.

The female official standing nearby knelt silently in greeting when she saw Bai Mi.

Bai Mi felt a little guilty for no reason and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty."

Bai Zhula didn't look back immediately until she had gently poured the last spoonful of water. Then she handed the golden spoon to the female official next to her, picked up a white silk scarf and slowly wiped her hands, "You two go out first."

The maids bowed again and carefully left the hall.

Bai Mi maintained his saluting posture until he heard the sound of the palace door closing. Then he cautiously looked up at Bai Zhula, "Grandma Shengjun?"

Bai Zhula turned around, picked up the golden spoon in his hand and slammed it on Bai Mi's forehead.

"?"

Bai Mi was caught off guard and fell to the ground in a daze. A small bump was visible on his forehead.

"You're so brave! Not only did you flee the hunting ground without permission, but you even went to the Li family's old house and killed and set fire to it?! Do you really think Li Ru is afraid of you?"

Bai Mi covered the bump on his forehead and said, "I just came from the old man's place. How did you know I went to the Li residence? That old man has a quick tongue!"

Seeing Bai Zhula's look of disdain, Bai Mi immediately reacted, somewhat unconvinced, "Your Majesty, that old bastard Li Ru has been secretly working against you, relying on his age. If he hadn't joined forces with the old-school nobles to petition you, would that pretty boy Bai Lie be worthy of sitting in the same seat as your uncle?"

Bai Zhula was not easy to fool, and raised his hand to dunk again, "Stop talking about him, I'm asking you now."

Bai Mi grimaced in pain, but didn't dare cry out because, according to past experience, the louder he cried, the harder he would be beaten.

"Your Majesty!" He covered his two symmetrical bags and spoke like pouring beans, "I received news that Shen Nian took Shen Guiling to the Li residence. Li Ru, that old fox, is full of evil intentions. I...I was afraid that my uncle would have no descendants, so I rushed to the Li family to ask for her!"

"You mean, you gave up your military merits and risked offending the Li family just for A Ling?" Bai Zhula narrowed his eyes and looked scrutinizing.

Aling?

You're calling me so affectionately even though I haven't come back yet?!

Bai Mi was afraid of being hit again, so he crawled three meters away and knelt down obediently. "I'm doing this for Grandma Shengjun! Aren't you still waiting for Shen Guiling to come back? If he gets harmed by that old bastard Li Ru, he won't be able to come back!"

Bai Zhula stared at him for a full minute, still a little bit unbelieving, "When did you become so kind-hearted?"

"..." Bai Mi was suddenly struck by a soul attack, and he was stunned. Right? When did he become so kind-hearted?

If Shen Guiling returned, he would definitely be the first choice for the crown prince, and even his mother would have to step aside. Logically, he should have wished for Shen Guiling's death.

The sudden silence made the atmosphere a little strange. Bai Mi glanced at Bai Zhula and said, "Is there... something wrong?"

Bai Zhula threw away the golden spoon and turned back to his throne. "Of course not. The Bai family has never been kind-hearted."

To consolidate his throne, Emperor Baipu killed sixteen of his compatriots; to secure her throne, Baijula ​​poisoned her own husband. The Bai family seems to be inherently indifferent to family affection, with only power, fame, and wealth in their sights. Otherwise, they wouldn't be known as the "Crazy Family."

Bai Mi also noticed something was wrong with him and rubbed his chin with a serious expression. Could it be that the foolish man from the Shen family had cast some kind of evil spell on him?

But he didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere?

Bai Mi temporarily suppressed his doubts and looked at the queen on the throne, "Grandma Shengjun, will you save me or not?"

Bai Zhula, "If he is really so useless that I need to take action, it is not worth my expectation."

He is indeed a saintly king, with a heart of stone towards everyone.

"but……"

Bai Mi was about to get up and say goodbye, but suddenly realized that there was something else to say, so he knelt back down.

Bai Zhula looked at the two bumps on his head and was silent for a moment before saying, "You don't need to get involved in this matter. I have my own ideas. Although A Ling doesn't need to be rescued by the Bai family, I will never allow the child that Xiao Mian and Lan Tiya protected with their lives to be humiliated under the family's royal flag."

"..."

Xiao Mian?

Bai Mi suddenly remembered a complaint his mother often made: the Queen had given all her precious tenderness to Prince Bai Mian. Only with the Prince's death did the Queen feel the pain of losing a son; the deaths of these people were, at best, just a passing experience.

Bai Zheng is the best example.

Bai Mi's expression was indescribable. "From what you said, you already knew that Shen Guiling had come to Country S?"

Bai Zhula glanced at Bai Mi and didn't respond.

She didn't just know, she had complete control. Her initial talk of letting Shen Guiling train in Country A was just a trick to deceive Bai Mi. In reality, she had already arranged a top-tier guard group around Shen Guiling, and if Shen Guiling was in danger, those people would automatically appear.

Now everything is safe and sound there, which means everything is still under the control of the child.

Bai Mi noticed something was wrong with the Queen and looked cautiously, "Your Majesty, you don't seem to be worried at all about Shen Guiling getting into trouble? Did you place someone around him?"

You little bastard, you have some brains.

Bai Mi howled upon seeing this, "You gave him personal guards?!"

If it weren't for her personal guards, the Queen wouldn't have this expression.

Bai Zhula frowned slightly, and said dignifiedly, "What are you yelling about?"

Bai Mi covered his mouth, indignant!

In Country S, only the princes in the royal family have their own guards, not even his mother.

But that wasn't the most infuriating thing. The most infuriating thing was that as members of the Bai family, they had been taught since childhood to stand up for themselves. He had almost been buried alive before, and the queen didn't send troops to rescue him. It was only by digging for three days and three nights that he rescued himself.

Originally thought that the queen would treat Li Ru differently by coming forward to educate him, but unexpectedly the old lady directly gave Shen Guiling a personal guard.

The saying "The clown is himself" is fully reflected in him.

Bai Mi stood up and bowed lazily, "Nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

"No hurries?"

Bai Mi stiffened his neck and asked, "Do you have any other instructions?"

Bai Zhula pinched his brows and said, "You passed the church test, but you haven't received the reward yet."

Bai Mi raised his eyebrows and said, "You're giving me a sweet reward after a beating. Are you training a dog?"

Bai Zhula pointed to the jewel box on the orchid stand and said, "I didn't know who to give it to. Since you're here, I'll treat it as a reward for passing the test."

Bai Mi turned his head to look at the box, hesitated for a moment, walked forward and picked it up, looked at Bai Zhula with a little doubt, and then opened the treasure box.

He was initially nonchalant, but when he saw the Knight's Medal inside, his expression froze instantly. The medal was engraved with two crossed knight's swords, with two dazzling gemstones, one red and one blue.

In Country S, the bond between a prince and the captain of the Knights Guard is far stronger than that between siblings. A sibling might take your life when you're weak, but the captain is someone who stands behind the prince.

Bai Zhula's voice came from above, "A Ling's personal guard is still short of a leader. I've been undecided about this person. Since you're here, I'll give it to you..."
