At the foot of the imperial stairs, Nangong Bao was already waiting here, and Lin Xiu came to the front and said respectfully: "The prince... The last general will be lucky to win, and I hope that the son of the world will not be angry! ”

Nangong Bao shook his head helplessly: "You kid, this defeat is all because my Qianniu guards have never fought and have poor blood, otherwise, you will definitely not be able to defeat me!" ”

"What the prince said is, that's why the last general won by luck!"

Lin Xiu is humble and not arrogant, and with Qin Yi, a handsome teacher, Nangong Bao will not be really angry, but it is the power of the tongue, and the two of them are waiting for kung fu, Nangong Bao approached and whispered: "Lin Xiu, I heard that my sister asked you for a piece of glass jade?" ”

"It's true!" Lin Xiu's face stiffened slightly: "Son, the county lord's kindness has been accepted by the last general, but the difference between the last general and the county lord's dignity is too great, such a valuable thing, the last general deserves it!" ”

When the words fell, Lin Xiu handed the jade pendant wrapped in silk cloth to Nangong Bao, but Nangong Bao blocked his face and said angrily: "Lin Xiu, the army is fighting, you are very smart, you can see the weak points of this son at a glance, but in the relationship between men and women, why are you so dull, like an old woman?" This son puts the words here, don't make my sister angry, otherwise this son will not be able to spare you! ”

At the end, Nangong Bao smiled meaningfully: "Zhong Yi, my sister has never cared about anything or anyone since she was a child, but your appearance is like a bright light in the night, so that Yan'er's heart is pointing to, here I mention you, seize the opportunity, if the love belongs, you are the best son-in-law of my Qing Prince's Mansion..."

Hearing this, Lin Xiu was stunned, Rao is Nangong Baoxiao turned back, in front of him, Huang An had already come down from the imperial steps: "Two generals, Your Majesty has a decree, summon the two generals, please come with our family!" ”

On the imperial steps, Emperor Xia'an's heart was open, only to ride and fight with Qianniuwei, the entire courtiers and princes would bet more than one million taels, and his royal treasury would enter another 300,000 taels of silver, so that Emperor Xia'an would rise and paced back and forth: "Ke'er, I found out this time that you also have a bit of a vision of military strategy, not bad, not bad!" ”

"Father's words are serious, this victory, the son is just a fluke guess, the root is still the father's heavenly power!" King Yan Jingyu was so sycophant that King Qin was disgusted.

"Your Highness, you are not happy, remember, remember!"

Jing Yuyin's appearance made Yang Mao can't help but remind, but Jing Yuyin is a general, upright and unyielding, how can he endure the undercurrent of the official eunuchs in the court? At this time, a small eunuch came with a silver platter.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, this is the money you have earned from your gambling, excluding the forty percent returned to the treasury, the remaining sixteen thousand taels, this is the ticket of the Yellow Court!"

"The old minister will accept it on his behalf!" Yang Mao hurriedly got up to get the ticket for the meeting, but just saw Huang An taking Nangong Bao and Lin Xiu to the imperial stairs, he was slightly stunned, turned around and whispered: "Your Highness, isn't it the old minister's dazzle?" Lao Chen's disciple Lin Xiu went up to the top to meet him? ”

Huang An led the two to the platform of Emperor Xia'an's Huagai Dragon Garden, and then retreated to the side, Lin Xiu and Nangong Bao immediately knelt on the ground, and knocked three times in a deep voice: "The last general Lin Zhongyi (Nangong Bao) has been favored by Tianwei and has been able to come here, long live long live Your Majesty!" ”

Emperor Xia An waved his hand and saluted: "You are the cornerstone of my Great Xia army, the cornerstone of the generals, praiseworthy and rewarded, flat!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Lin Xiu got up, he lowered his head and pointed to the dragon-patterned ground that was one step ahead of him and did not move, but Nangong Bao whispered slightly: "Zhong Yi, what do you want?" Your Majesty orders you to look up! ”

Lin Xiu was stunned, and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty Longwei Tianzi, the last general is a white-bodied young general, with a humble position, the first time I met him, my mind was unstable, the last general will know the guilt, the last will know the guilt..."

The incoherence for a while made Emperor Xia An laugh a few times: "Qingcong let go, I forgive you for your innocence!" Now look up and let me take a good look! ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiu slowly raised his head, when his eyes looked up slightly, an old man dressed in a dragon robe and wearing a nine-dragon crown came into view, and when he looked closely, Emperor Xia'an's skin was yellow and white, and the brown markings the size of his fingernails were embedded in the cheekbones like stars, and the eyebrows that were as white as ice and snow were floating on his cheeks at will, but under this twilight, the pair of dark and deep Mu Zi's essence burst out, and the coercion of the supreme made Lin Xiu feel anxious, and at a loss, Lin Xiu reacted, this may be the power of the emperor, There is no movement but there is thunder and anger.

"Lin Xiu, I heard that you were born in the country and entered the military on your own in the name of Zhong Yi?"

Emperor Xia An asked with a smile, and Lin Xiu breathed a sigh of relief: "Back to Your Majesty, the last general was originally a student of Shengde Academy in Licheng, Northern Xinjiang, studied under Yang Mao University, and when he returned to his hometown after suspension, it coincided with the Beiban going south, so he applied for conscription, and then he entered the army!" ”

Hearing this, Wei Huan and other courtiers behind Emperor Xia An shook their heads one after another: "Alas... This son is too immature, and what a good promotion opportunity was missed! ’

After a short period of silence, although Emperor Xia'an's face has not changed, his interest has obviously dissipated a lot, Rao is Lin Xiu still doesn't know that he has said the wrong thing, as for Yang Mao, who served beside Jing Yuyin, he also sighed and shook his head: "This son is upright..."

"Where's Scholar Yang?"

The cold emperor said this, and Yang Mao hurriedly trotted forward: "Your Majesty, the old minister is here!" ”

"This son turned out to be a student you taught?" Emperor Xia An asked with a smile, although it was a simple sentence, Yang Mao had a chill down his spine, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Yang Mao, who bowed to the ground, swallowed hard, kept his mind as steady as possible, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is true that this son is a student of Shengde Academy, but he is just one of the more than 300 students under the command of Lao Chen, this son can have today's achievements, all of which are his bloody nature in northern Xinjiang and self-hard work, and have nothing to do with the old minister, and the old minister is also very lieutenant in his heart, under the protection of His Majesty's grace, this son of the army wins, and it is really the green blood of the rising star of Great Xia!" ”

A sentence threw Lin Xiu's achievements back to his own ability, Emperor Xia An heard it, his heart was slightly relaxed, Rao is Jing Yutian, Jing Yuke, Jing Yuzi and others also sniffed out the deep meaning, but the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, and after thousands of miles, so when everyone thought that Lin Xiu was going to advance with his own talents, the order that made people puzzled came.

"This son does have some talent, but he is too young, so... You have to experience a lot... Wei Huan..."

Emperor Xia'an's words fell, and Wei Huan approached with the seal in his hand.

"Xiao riding a young general, fighting for Yingli, like a good horse galloping, that is, the general of Bei'an, stationed in northern Xinjiang, should be snowy!"

As soon as these words came out, all the princes and courtiers present were stunned, a young general with a white body and a six-rank cavalry captain, but he was just a middle- and lower-level general in the army, but he was inexplicably named a general, but in terms of generals, Bei'an General was no longer in the official ranks, neither a lord nor an official position, but Lin Xiu didn't know the deep meaning for a while, and immediately bowed down to thank him.
