The Journey of Projection Upgrading
Chapter 161: Welcome

In a certain sense, these people really were heading towards her.

After all, she was Princess Liáng.

What a good target.

Liáng Yáo's identity was there after all.

Even though the powerful families like the Bái family didn't have much interest in her, they couldn't stop others from having different intentions.

After all, not everyone was on the same page.

Princess Liáng appeared to be just a figurehead, but in reality, she was quite valuable in certain situations.

For example, breaking relationships, even directly blaming others, and even doing some other sinister things.

Well, none of it was good.

The people causing trouble for her were not necessarily the local powerful families within the Shàngyuán County, they could also be outsiders.

But they did want to harm Princess Liáng, that was certain.

But obviously, Princess Liáng had some backbone to venture into a place like Shàngyuán County, which was full of turmoil, and she also had her own ways of dealing with things.

Facing wave after wave of people who saw her as a big prize, wanting to kill or rob her, she didn't flinch at all, not even showing a trace of panic.

But even so, she was starting to get a bit annoyed.

It was one thing not being able to cause trouble for you, but it was another thing to be annoyed by people.

These people kept coming one after another, although they didn't cause her too many problems, it was still really annoying.

At least Princess Liáng was starting to get a bit troubled at this moment.

If it were any other royal noble, after seeing this scene, most likely they would have given up.

After all, the people in Shàngyuán County were a bit too enthusiastic.

But Liáng Yáo was different after all.

She had a reason she had to go to Shàngyuán County.

"It's been about half a year, that should be enough for me to operate."

Sitting inside the luxurious carriage, Liáng Yáo looked at the distant scenery, silently had this thought in her mind.

She was still pondering, the carriage slowly moved forward, gradually arriving at the destination.

Outside Shàngyuán County.

When the Princess arrived at the city of Shàngyuán, the entire outskirts of Shàngyuán County suddenly erupted with excitement.

Both inside and outside the city of Shàngyuán, everywhere was packed with people.

This was normal, after all, watching the excitement was a natural impulse.

For Shàngyuán County, a princess from the imperial family arriving was indeed a rare event.

Everyone swarmed over was normal.

What was not normal was that envoys from several major families were also among the crowd, ready to welcome this Princess Liáng.

They had a tacit understanding of how to treat this princess.

Not too accommodating, but also not offending.

After all, she was a grand princess of the royal family, it wouldn't be good to directly contradict her, easily provoking a backlash.

But if they were to be overly cautious towards her, it also wouldn't be necessary.

So the best course of action was to send a few people over, make a show of it, and that would be enough.

The envoy from the Bái family was also there, and it was an old acquaintance.

Yes, it was Bái Chángrén.

As the son of the second branch of the Bái family, Bái Chángrén was definitely a mainline figure in the Bái family, his strength was hard to say, but his status was more than enough, which was just right in this situation.

He was leading a group of people to welcome, standing with other envoys from other families, not looking out of place at all.

For this trip, Bái Chángrén didn't really take it to heart.

Just need to put on a show.

After all, she was a princess, even if she came to Shàngyuán, what could they do, she wasn't going to specifically point fingers and go to their Bái family, right?

So in all likelihood, he, as an envoy, was just here for the show, someone who was needed but didn't have much use.

In this situation, Bái Chángrén naturally relaxed, without a trace of tension.

So his performance was very casual, just standing there, occasionally chatting and laughing with his family, chatting, without any hint of nervousness in welcoming the royal family.

Who knows if the King of Dàliáng would be pissed off if he saw this.

Probably not.

Because he couldn't even get angry.

Everyone present was like this.

Everyone thought they were just going through the motions, so they all behaved quite relaxed.

However, the unexpected happened.

This Dàliáng Princess proceeded a distance, and for some reason, she suddenly stopped right in front of Bái Chángrén.

At that moment, Bái Chángrén was stunned.

Wasn't I just here to watch the show?

How did I become the material for others to watch?

He was dumbfounded, and could only awkwardly go forward to welcome her.

Even when the entourage of the Princess arrived, he still hadn't come to terms with what was happening.

But in the end, Princess Chángpíng chose the Bái family, wanting to stay in the Bái family estate during her time in Shàngyuán County, using this to understand the family's style.

This news spread quickly, giving others continuous speculation.

Some people felt that Princess Chángpíng's actions might be to win over the Bái family?

This was the most likely scenario.

Of course, it was also possible that there was a previous connection with the Bái family, so she chose the Bái family, getting closer to them.

But no matter what, since Princess Chángpíng wanted to stay in the Bái family, the Bái family had to treat her well.

Don't hit people's faces.

After all, she was a princess, even if they quietly killed a few people, they still had to be warm on the surface.

Outwardly hospitable, secretly planning murders.

That was quite real.

The news quickly reached the Bái family.

"A princess wants to stay in the Bái family for a period of time?"

In the mansion, Chén Ān knew about this news, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Obviously, just like Bái Chángrén, he hadn't expected this outcome.

As an outsider in the Bái family, he didn't feel any animosity towards this princess, he just found it a bit strange.

Why did a princess just suddenly come?

But since she had come, he didn't think too much about it.

The matters of the Bái family were taken care of by the Bái family head and a few elders, it had nothing to do with Chén Ān.

He just had to sit on the side and watch quietly.

However, not long after, when the Princess truly arrived, he couldn't avoid being affected and had to go and welcome her.

Of course, it wasn't just him, Bái Zhǐlán, Bái Qīng, and other core figures of the Bái family also went to meet her, going to receive her together.

If Chén Ān wanted to, he could have avoided it, but after thinking about it, he didn't do so.

After all, it was just a meeting, there was no need to avoid it.

Everyone had a curiosity to watch, and Chén Ān was also interested in seeing what the princess looked like.

After all, she was a princess, and this status inherently carried a certain aura of expectation.

Chén Ān was just a normal person, he couldn't escape from being curious.

So he went over to take a look.

And there were probably quite a few others with the same mindset as Chén Ān.

Warriors were also humans, and they all had a gossipy heart.

In the end, Princess Chángpíng did not disappoint them.

Purely in terms of appearance, Princess Chángpíng might not be considered stunning, but she was definitely a good-looking woman. Her features were delicate, her skin was fair, and she had a unique nobility about her, making it hard for people to forget her at first glance.
