Book 2: If it is a family affection, it can be thrown away (39)

Early the next morning, Bai Xu had a hangover the day before, but on the second day, he still adhered to his usual habits and got up early. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Shizi, the Maharaja summoned, and the general asked you to go to the front. "There were not many idlers in his courtyard, and because he was accustomed to doing everything himself, there was no one else in the courtyard to serve him, except for a small handyman who conveyed the word.

Bai Xu straightened his shirt for a long time, "I know, I'll go." ”

When he arrived at the front hall, the little official who came to deliver the message was standing respectfully to the side and talking to General Pingyang. Bai Xujiu greeted his father, and then looked at the little official and said, "I'm tired of the little gentleman to run, you can go." ”

The little official has always been the most unpopular type of person in the Great Heavenly Palace, Bai Xujiu's politeness instantly made her smile and bend her eyes, "The little general is polite! Now that the little general is ready, let's go!"

On the way to the Maharaja's palace, the little official was even more flattering: "I haven't congratulated the little general yet, this time the Maharaja summoned him, he must go one step further!"

Bai Xujiu smiled: "Mr. Xiao is polite, he is still reflecting on it, but what did he do to make the prince unhappy!"

"The general has been in the community all these years, but the prince is full of praise for the general!" the little official revealed a sentence vaguely, but he didn't dare to say it too clearly.

Bai Xujiu had a measure in his heart, and he was not so worried about this summons of the Maharaja.

This generation of Loulan Maharaja succeeded to the throne when he was young, and he was only seventeen or eighteen years old when he inherited the throne, and he has been in power for more than 30 years now. It is probably the power of the perennial reigning superior, making him look majestic and solemn, but it is somewhat similar to the statue of the god-king on the round platform.

"My lord Wankang, the courtier Bai Xujiu pays a visit to the monarch!" Bai Xujiu saluted respectfully, buried his head deep in the ground, and did not dare to cross the slightest distance.

The Maharaja waved his hand: "Get up!"

"Thank you, Dajun!"

Looking at the young man below who had been thoughtful and had an outstanding bearing, a trace of remembrance flashed on the monarch's face, and he quickly disappeared.

"In the past few years, I have experienced the frontier, but what is the discomfort?"

Bai Xujiu's heart tightened, and when he asked about the frontier, he didn't dare to slack off at all: "Xie Dajun cares, the courtiers are all right, and there is no discomfort!"

Dajun's face showed a sad face: "Yes, your Pingyang Bai family, the past dynasties seem to be born for the battlefield, how can you not adapt..."

As if thinking of something, the Maharaja was silent for a long time before continuing: "But it's you who have been away all the year round, and your mother is afraid that she is not suitable for it... Have you ever thought about staying in the capital?"

Staying in the capital county? Bai Xu was nervous for a long time, and hurriedly knelt down: "The courtier is guilty and has failed to live up to my monarch's expectations, please punish the monarch!"

"Guilty, why are you guilty?" Knowing that he had misunderstood, the Maharaja did not explain, and asked by the way.

"Courtier... The courtier..."Bai Xu thought for a long time, he has been conscientious all these years, and he doesn't seem to have made a mistake: "The courtier failed to achieve the king's wish, and expanded the territory for my Loulan... Courtier..."

"Okay, okay!" The monarch waved his hand: "Benjun didn't want you to open up the territory, I summoned you here today, just to ask if you would like to stay in Dujun! After all, you have been in the frontier for ten years, and you should have moved the place a long time ago, and now that the Si Xing Temple is lacking a guard, Benjun will think of you!"

"The Si Xing Temple's... Guard?" Bai Xu was stunned for a long time, was his time in the capital too short, why didn't he know that there was a Si Xing Temple in this Great Heavenly Palace?

The Maharaja nodded, sighed and said: "It is the daughter of this monarch, Muyang, who was blessed by the god king a few days ago, and actually inherited the position of the goddess. This Si Xing Temple is the residence of the goddesses of the past dynasties, and there is usually no goddess living in the past, so naturally there is no need to guard the generals, but now that Muyang lives in, the gods who should be configured will naturally be matched. ”

Bai Xu was stunned for a long time, but he never expected that the Dajun actually wanted to send him to guard Bai Xun's residence. After reacting, there was another burst of surprise, even though he knew that the goddess could not be emotional, but he was very happy to think that he could always be by her side. But when he thought of staying in the capital and giving up his ambition to fight on the battlefield, he hesitated.

His silence seemed to the Maharaja like a silent refusal. The role of the Maharaja is immediately difficult to see: "You don't want to?"

Bai Xu was stunned for a long time, and hurriedly knelt down: "It is an honor for the courtiers to be able to protect the goddess." Thank you for your grace!"

He said this sincerely, and it was really sincere, and the Maharaja smiled with satisfaction: "In this case, you should go back first, the will of the conferment, and I will then ask someone to send it to the general's mansion." ”

"Yes!" Bai Xujiu bowed and retreated respectfully.

The Maharaja's movements were also very fast, and as soon as he returned to the general's palace on the front foot, the decree of the posthumous post was sent over. When the petty official who announced the decree finished reading the decree, the entire Pingyang General's Mansion was shaken.

Bai Xujiu's mother is naturally overjoyed, her son who has been absent for ten years can finally stay in front of him every day, although he is the god general of the Sixing Temple, he can't live at home, but at least he doesn't have to worry about his safety, it is naturally better. But General Pingyang was not so happy, and sent away the little official who announced the decree, and called Bai Xujiu to the study with a sad brow.

"What does the Maharaja mean?" General Pingyang asked bluntly, frowning.

Bai Xu didn't hide it for a long time, and repeated the conversation with the prince to his father word for word, and finally said: "Look at the meaning of the prince, it's not like he has doubts about us, it's just this frontier..."

General Pingyang is no longer worried at this time, if you talk about the understanding of the Maharaja, I am afraid that there is no one in this world who is more than him Bailuo. Growing up together since childhood, a smiling expression or a small sigh from the Maharaja, he can guess his true intentions, not to mention that when he talks to Bai Xujiu this time, the Maharaja does not hide it at all.

Seeing that his son was still a little worried, General Pingyang smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, the prince has no opinion on our garrison on the frontier! This time it should be to find a protector for his daughter, you can do it all for your life!"

Bai Xu nodded for a long time, and since he had his father's affirmation, he didn't think much about it, turned around and went back to his yard, and packed his luggage.

The guardian generals of the Si Xing Divine Temple are only the guards of the Great Heavenly Palace, but their authority is above all the generals. Because it is affiliated with the temple, it is the subordinate temple that the god general must live in the temple, so Bai Xujiu has just lived in the house for two days, and he has to pack his bags and move his seat again.

But fortunately, it has only been a few days since I came back, and many things have not been disassembled, so this salute was still quickly packed up, and it was sorted out in less than half a day.

Early in the morning of the second day, a minor official came to take him to the temple. Although Bai Xujiu knew where Bai Xun lived, he didn't want to go directly by himself, so he simply followed the little official and let him take him over.

Si Xing Temple, sure enough, is the one when I saw Bai Xun that day, in the old courtyard a few years ago, Bai Xujiu walked all the way, looking at the familiar scenery, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings.
