Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Went To The Banquet

Bai Family was known as a family who did not take any concubines. Even Old Master Bai married the current Old Madam Bai after the first Old Madam Bai died. Bai Guowei was the first one who broke the tradition.

"Let’s buy ingredients for dinner." Bai Xiang said, putting an end to the topic.

He did not care about what happened to Bai Guowei. It was his choice to take a mistress. He would not do something like that. He loved his wife deeply and did not dare to cheat on him.

They arrived home after one hour of buying the ingredients.

"Welcome home, everyone."

Yu Qi’s subordinates greeted them.

"Are you cleaning the bedroom which my father and brother would be staying in?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Yeah, Master." They answered.

"Good. Thank you." Bai Xifeng said.

"However, Master, we need to hire some people. There are a lot of areas that need to be cleaned." Yu Xiaohui stated.

"Father, what do you say?" Bai Xifeng looked at her father.

"Hmm... this house should be beautiful. But now, it has fallen into this state." Bai Xiang sighed.

"That woman only knows how to trim herself for that ba****." Bai Tingfeng said.

"Before I leave for war, I already hired a group of people to take care of this house. That bas**** must be chasing them out." Bai Xiang gritted his teeth thinking about that.

"Father, let’s hire them back. That is if they want to work back with us." Bai Tingfeng suggested.

"Hmm... " Bai Xiang nodded.

....

The night of the banquet was arrived. Bai Xifeng was reluctant to attend. However, her father told her that she needed to go since the emperor wanted them to show up.

As for the dress for Bai Xifeng to wear during the banquet, Bai Tingfeng prepared for it. Bai Xifeng was surprised. Because she used that excuse to tell her father that she did not have a new dress to wear for the banquet.

Bai Tingfeng told her that she did not need to worry about that and took out a dress from his storage runes. Bai Xifeng was speechless when she saw the dress.

The dress was kind of beautiful for her. She did not expect that her big brother would be this amazing when choosing a woman’s dress.

So, Bai Xifeng ended up attending the banquet with her father and brother. They rode the carriage. The road was packed with carriages which had the same destination which was the Palace.

When the people arrived at the entrance gate, all of them needed to get out of the carriage and would be going to walk into the Palace. It was now Bai Xiang’s term.

When the soldiers saw Bai Xiang get out of the carriage, they immediately stopped him from doing so.

"What?" Bai Xiang did not understand.

"As the guest of honor for today’s banquet, Your Excellency and the family could ride the carriage passing this entrance. No need for Your Excellency to walk." The soldier explained.

Other soldiers nodded. They were dying to see the strongest general ever. They could tell that his aura was real.

Bai Xiang entered the carriage back. When he was doing that, the soldiers caught a glimpse of a beautiful woman in the carriage. They wondered who.

They did not think it was Bai Xifeng, General Bai Xiang’s daughter because they knew that Bai Xifeng had gone missing half a year ago and still had not found her yet until this day.

The carriage moved past the entrance. The next carriage intended to go the same. However, they got stopped by the soldiers.

"Stop!" The soldiers shouted.

The carriage stopped. It was a carriage belonging to Hang Family, a minister. But it belonged to the son.

"What? Why are you stopping me from entering the Palace? We are invited for the banquet." A man came out of the carriage screaming at the soldiers.

The soldiers waited until the man stopped shouting and answered calmly. "Sir, from this point, you need to walk into the Palace."

"Then, tell me, why does that carriage in front of me get through this entrance? Did they pay you some money? Hey, I can pay you too. Tell me how much do I need to pay to pass this gate?" The man said arrogantly to the soldiers.

"Sir, you misunderstand the situation. They did not pay us anything. It was His Majesty’s order to let them pass the entrance gate using the carriage because they are the guest of honor for today’s banquet." The soldier explained.

"What? Guest of honor? Who are they?" The man asked in a taunt tone.

"His Excellency, General Bai Xiang." The soldier stated.

The man was quickly silent. He did not expect that.

"Sir, if you want to enter, please step out of the carriage and ask your driver to move the carriage. There are still a lot of people who need to enter the gate." The soldier ordered.

At this moment, the man obeyed the soldier’s words silently and walked past the entrance gate by walking inside with his family. He did not dare to criticize Bai Xiang’s family anymore.

Bai Xiang and his family did not know about that incident. They rode the carriage until they stopped in front of the building. They got off there. There was an eunuch who was waiting for them.

"Your Excellency, General Bai, I assume?" The eunuch asked.
