When the emperor opened the cloth bag and saw that it was empty, he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Where is your flying ball?" Where did it go? ”

Jiang Xiaobai said innocently: "Naturally, it's put away." ”

After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, he suddenly patted his head, walked over and took the cloth bag in the emperor's hand, dug it in, and took out a bottle of Jiang Xiaobai.

"Your Majesty, this is a good wine named after me by my master. This bottle will be given to you. ”

It's not good, this Jiang Xiaobai wanted to pit the emperor, Bai Yutang hurriedly ran over and helped the emperor open the wine bottle, and then stretched the wine bottle in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, although this wine is good, it is very violent." For the first time, you're going to take a small sip. ”

When the emperor smelled it, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Good wine, as soon as I smell it, I know that this wine must be terrible." You, the immortal master, are indeed immortal means! ”

After speaking, he took a sip of the wine, and suddenly felt a thrill all over his body: "Hahahaha...... Sure enough, it's a good wine, Jiang Xiaobai, Jiang Xiaobai, it's really a good name. ”

When Bai Yutang heard this, he immediately looked at Bao Longtu proudly, did you see it? The emperor said that our name is good, now see what else do you have to say?

The emperor is so happy at this time! He took another sip of wine, and then said loudly: "Spread my will, Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang have contributed to saving the second prince." I gave him the hereditary baron......"

Jiang Xiaobai was overjoyed, he came, and thought that this emperor was stingy! It turned out that there was just no reward before, but now it's finally here.

The Dahua Dynasty was divided into five lords, such as duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male, all of whom were hereditary. Now that he has a knighthood, everyone doesn't dare to say that he is a little son-in-law, right?

But before the emperor's words were finished, the old man Gao jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, by all means. Our Dahua has never had a precedent for giving a small son-in-law a knight! ”

Those people who were with Old Man Gao also hurriedly knelt down and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, our Dahua has never had a precedent for giving a small son-in-law a knighthood, and the emperor is tantamount to deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors!" ”

These ministers have the right to admonish, and the status of their sons-in-law is already low, and since the founding of the Dahua Dynasty, there has never been such a precedent. Therefore, they say that the emperor cannot send fire even if he has it.

Forehead?

Jiang Xiaobai became angry in an instant, these guys are so shameless, Lao Tzu has eaten your rice, right? Isn't it just a little baron? It's 108,000 miles away from you! You're all going to jump out and stop this?

At this time, the emperor was also a little embarrassed, and he suddenly forgot Jiang Xiaobai's identity as a son-in-law.

Old man Gao knelt there, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with a wicked smile, Jiang Xiaobai clenched his fists, was very angry, and was about to speak.

Chihiro, the boss of the brocade guard, walked over.

This brocade guard! To put it bluntly, it is a secret service department, which is not only responsible for protecting the emperor, but also responsible for inquiring about news and the like.

If you accidentally commit a crime and become the object of their suspicion and get caught, then you are miserable. Want to come up? If you don't die, you have to peel off your skin!

As soon as Chihiro came over, he ran to the emperor's side and whispered: "Your Majesty, the border flying pigeons have spread a word, saying that those Hu people are crazy and are gathering a large army and preparing to invade our Dahua. And it's blatant and menacing, and it's clear that it's going to be a desperate rhythm with us! ”

When the emperor heard this, he hurriedly asked, "How can this be?" Do you know why? ”

Chihiro said, "According to the biography of the flying pigeon, their second prince was killed by the people who went to save the second prince. ”

"What?"

The emperor suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaobai and smiled. The second prince who killed the Great Khan of the Hu Dynasty! This is a great military feat! I remembered that he had cured the Empress Dowager's illness, and every thing was a great achievement, this time, what else do you old guys have to say?

The emperor coughed and said again: "Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang not only rescued the second prince, but also killed the second prince of the Hu people. This is a military feat, so there's no problem with me rewarding him, right? ”

This is a military feat, if such a great military merit is not rewarded, then where will the soldiers dare to go to the battlefield in the future? There's no reward for killing a prince, so what's the use of them killing those soldiers?

At this time, if anyone dares to jump out to stop them, it is estimated that when they arrive at the barracks in the future, they will have to be shot with cold arrows.

Old man Gao's heart suddenly chuckled, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and he thought about it. Although the emperor asked him to hand over power, he still has three months of power.

Hurriedly jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, is the news accurate?" ”

The emperor said: "Now those Hu people and Tartars are crazy, and they have begun to gather soldiers and horses to prepare to invade my frontier, do you say the news is accurate?" ”

Old man Gao immediately shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, something is wrong. Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang have brought such a catastrophe to our Dahua, a big war is inevitable, and from then on, our frontier will be ruined, and how many people will be displaced because of this? Your Majesty, this Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang are executed because they can comfort the souls of the tens of millions of people who died due to this catastrophe! ”

What? Can you say the same? But what the old man said made sense.

The ministers were suddenly stunned. It turns out that Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang did not make meritorious contributions, but committed capital crimes!

Bai Yutang hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you must not listen to this old immortal demon to confuse the crowd and talk nonsense. Xiaobai, they killed the second prince of Hu Ren, which was originally a great achievement, how could they reverse black and white so much and talk nonsense? ”

Old man Gao hurriedly said, "King Pingnan, why am I talking nonsense to confuse the public? Wasn't this war caused by the fact that they killed the second prince of the Hu people? Tens of millions of people will be displaced and die in the war, who will carry this if they can't bear it? ”

"This?"

Bai Yutang was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to say it.

"This ......"

The emperor was also speechless. Although what this old man said is a bit far-fetched, what he said is also true! If you don't kill the second prince, will they go crazy and beat you?

Old man Gao said loudly: "Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to deal with this war, not to reward a sinner here!" Otherwise, millions of people will suffer. ”

The righteousness of what this old man said was awe-inspiring, and no one could refute it for a while. Who dares to refute it? People are now speaking from the moral high ground, and whoever dares to refute it is not loving the people.

The emperor asked helplessly: "Then you say, how to solve this matter?" ”

Old man Gao said loudly: "Your Majesty, the only way to solve this matter now is to immediately cut off Jiang Xiaobai and Bai Xiaojiang, and then give their heads to the Hu people, telling them that the murderer has been corrected on the spot, so that this war can be quelled." ”

"This ......"

The emperor was immediately stunned by him.

Jiang Xiaobai wanted to rush up and trample this tall old man to death, but he knew that it was different now. If he dares to step on people now, it will give them a reason to cut off his head.
