"Xuanyuan enters the hall—"

The guards conveyed the emperor's will layer by layer, and after a while, Xuanyuan Jue, dressed in fluttering white, walked into the Qi Tian Hall and stood in the center of the main hall, but he did not mean to kneel to the emperor, but just bowed and saluted: "Xuanyuan is determined to see Your Majesty." ”

The emperor said happily: "Xuanyuan Jue, where have you been these days, why don't you go back to Soul Capital with Xiao Zhang?"

Xuanyuan Jue smiled slightly: "Back to Your Majesty, the disciple is an idle cloud and wild crane, he has no fixed residence, the four seas are his home, and his temperament is also wild, and he failed to return to Beijing in time, please punish Your Majesty." ”

The emperor laughed: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later." Now that you're here, tell me what reward you want?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, what kind of merit did this Xuanyuan decide? Why did he have to be rewarded in the first place? What is going on?

Seeing that all the ministers were discussing, the emperor smiled and explained: "Actually, Xuanyuan's contribution is no less than Xiao Zhang's, if it were not for his secret assistance this time, it would be almost impossible for Xiao Zhang to destroy Xuanyuanmen." ”

The ministers were in an uproar! I see, this Xuanyuan decision turned out to be the emperor's inner line planted in the Xuanyuan Gate!

The emperor smiled: "Previously, I had not disclosed the true identity of Xuanyuan Decision, but now that the Xuanyuan Sect has been destroyed, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. ”

After all the ministers were shocked, they got up one after another and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty Shengming!"

The emperor nodded, looked at Xuanyuan Due, and asked again, "Xuanyuan Due, say, what reward do you want?"

Xuanyuan bowed down and said, "The disciple doesn't dare. ”

The emperor was slightly displeased: "Why don't you dare? You have made great contributions to the empire, and it is natural to ask for a reward!"

Xuanyuan was silent for a long time, and at a certain moment he finally raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, if you really want to ask the disciple what reward he wants, then the disciple will have the courage to say it." ”

The Emperor nodded, waiting for Xuanyuan's decision.

Xuanyuan Jue didn't say it immediately, but glanced at Xiao Zhang, and then said: "The disciple has only one request, that is, he hopes to marry Princess Lanxiang as his wife. ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly exploded!

Everyone knows that the emperor has designated Xiao Zhangnei as a concubine, that is to say, no matter what the outcome of this western expedition is, as long as Xiao Zhang can come back alive, he can marry Princess Lanxiang as his wife.

The relationship between Xiao Zhang and Princess Lanxiang is also well known, at the beginning, Xiao Zhang did such a big thing as breaking into the palace for Princess Lanxiang, to put it bluntly, as long as it was for Princess Lanxiang, Xiao Zhang could do anything.

And at this moment, Xuanyuan Jue actually raised this sensitive topic again, in fact, Xuanyuan Jue had also mentioned it once before, also in front of the emperor, but it seemed to be a half-joke at the time, and this time, Xuanyuan Jue's attitude was serious.

"This ......" The emperor was naturally embarrassed, frowning, and didn't know what to say.

Xuanyuan Jue looked at the emperor with a firm gaze, looking at the posture of not giving up if he did not achieve his goal.

At this moment, Xiao Zhang's face was not as ugly as everyone imagined, because his mind was not entirely on this matter, but still stayed on the matter of Soul Brewing Wine and Zuo Dongling.

This matter is indeed not small, in contrast, Princess Lan Xiang's matter can be put aside for the time being, because Xiao Zhang knows Lan Xiang, and he knows that Lan Xiang will never betray him.

Moreover, Xiao Zhang also knew that the appearance of Xuanyuan was undoubtedly to relieve him, you must know that his skill at the moment is only one percent, if there is really any accident, it will be more than lucky.

And Xuanyuan Jue may even help him, after all, Xiao Zhang also knows that Xuanyuan Jue has indeed fulfilled his promise and will not do anything unfavorable to him, and even helps him everywhere and all the time.

Therefore, Xiao Zhang didn't care about Xuanyuan Due's mention of Lan Xiang, he knew that Xuanyuan Jie was just talking about the topic and diverting everyone's attention.

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and said, "Xuanyuan decided, I have promised Xiao Zhang that I will marry Xiang'er. As for you, I have five princesses, and if you want, you can choose from any of them, what do you think?"

Xuanyuan resolutely shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the disciple has only admired Princess Lanxiang in his life. ”

A short sentence represents Xuanyuan's decisive attitude, which means that if Lanxiang does not marry, no matter what your emperor promised Xiao Zhang, I am on the same page with Xiao Zhang.

The emperor let out a long sigh, rubbed his eyebrows, and looked at Xiao Zhang, but saw that Xiao Zhang did not react much, his face was flat, and he even seemed to be indifferent to this matter.

"Xiao Zhang, what do you think about this matter?" the emperor asked tentatively.

Hearing the emperor's question, Xiao Zhang suddenly woke up from his thoughts, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Lan Xiang is your daughter, the minister doesn't dare to say more, or Your Majesty will decide it himself." ”

Xiao Zhang's attitude surprised the emperor, he thought that Xiao Zhang would be extremely excited to fight with Xuanyuan, but unexpectedly......

"Xiao Zhang, are you serious?" the emperor still couldn't believe it.

Xiao Zhang just nodded and did not speak.

This time the emperor is really in trouble, just now he has agreed to Xiao Zhang in front of the ministers, you have no jokes, if you change your mind temporarily, I am afraid that you will be ridiculed by the world. But if he continues to fulfill his promise, then Xuanyuan will not be able to solve it here.

At this time, Xuanyuan resolutely said: "Your Majesty, if you can't marry Princess Lanxiang, the disciple will withdraw from the elite group of the Western Expedition and travel all over the world." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall exploded again. However, the ministers were a little angry this time, isn't this clearly threatening Your Majesty?

The emperor was also immediately displeased: "Xuanyuan Decision, what are you talking about? Are you threatening me?"

Xuanyuan decided: "The disciple doesn't dare. ”

"And what do you want to do?" the Emperor asked angrily.

Xuanyuan thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the disciple is willing to give up Princess Lanxiang, just because the relationship between Xiao Zhang and Princess Lanxiang is extremely strong, even if I get Lanxiang's body, I can't get her heart." At the same time, the disciple should also give up the opportunity of this western expedition, relax a little, and ask Your Majesty for permission. ”

Emperor: "......"

Xuanyuan Du continued: "Over the years, the disciple has been tired of fighting openly and secretly, and he is physically and mentally exhausted, so please allow the disciple to relax temporarily. ”

The emperor pondered for a long time, and finally raised his head and said, "I'm ready." However, once you have relaxed, you need to come back in time. ”

Xuanyuan bowed down and thanked him.

The emperor said: "You have made a meritorious service this time, and I must always show something." I will reward you with a brocade dress, which can improve the strength of the body by a realm. ”

Xuanyuan never refused, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty." ”

A small eunuch carried a tray with a white garment neatly folded on it, which looked like a scumbag, and in terms of color and appearance, it was ordinary.

Xuanyuan Jue didn't take it, but said, "Your Majesty, can the disciple transfer this brocade robe to Xiao Zhang?"
