058 The capable dwell

At noon on the Emperor Star, the sun is shining.

The Starship's originally planned landing site was exposed, and it could only be adjusted on the fly. Many students still complained about this, after all, the people who rushed to pick them up at home were in vain.

The new landing site is on an old platform in a nearby city, which was almost demolished more than a decade ago, but due to the delay in the renovation project, it was left unused, and now only scattered houses in the corners and half a circle of brick walls on the perimeter remain.

Before the starship docked, the captain considered Xi Luo's safety and arranged for Yin Fan to use a search machine to send people away in advance.

Outside the brick walls of the old platform stood two men and women in military uniforms, both armed with new high-end pistols at their waists, as if they had undergone rigorous training.

The two of them, who had been wandering in the distance for a long time, began to walk straight in the direction of Xi Luo, and finally stopped in front of the butler and gave a quick military salute: "General." ”

The butler looked at the two of them and nodded slightly.

The middle-aged man who walked in front first opened the identity certificate of the watch and put it in front of Xi Luo, and said seriously: "Hello, I am Jiang Lian, the captain of the first team of the Imperial Capital Guards. On the orders of the chief, you are invited to a small gathering in the conference hall of the Military Commission. ”

The woman who followed behind also showed her identification: "Qian Qian, the captain of the fourth team of the Imperial Capital Guard Army." ”

The butler's eyes swept over the watches of the two, leaning on Xi Luo's ear and whispering, "The identity is right." ”

"I just finished the college assessment, and now I'm very tired, I'm afraid I won't be able to go." Xi Luo expressed his wish euphemistically.

Jiang Lian seemed to have been prepared for Xi Luo's refusal, and bent down slightly: "The chief said, if you have any difficulties, please try to overcome them, and Mrs. Xi will also be waiting for you in the council hall." ”

"Mean, I can't say no, can I?"

"If you have a problem, please try to overcome it." Jiang Lian repeated tirelessly.

"Let's go." Xi Luo said indifferently.

"Okay, Admiral Trouble and Miss Xi will get on the hovercar with us."

"Yes."

The housekeeper pushed the wheelchair and followed behind Jiang Lian, while Qianqian walked last. Jiang Lian sat in the driver's seat, nodded to Qianqian outside the window, and motioned for them to sit in the back.

Several people were ready, and the hovercar was quickly started.

"Host, what did the chief ask you to do in the Military Commission Chamber? Why is Mrs. Xi also there? ”

"Hongmen Banquet." Xi Luo sneered, "I'm getting more and more curious, what this group of people want to do." ”

Jiang Lian's hovering car was hung with the special sign of the Central Military Commission, and there was no need to follow the air lane during driving, avoiding many detours. In just about 20 minutes, the hovering car drove to the door of the destination.

The area of the chamber of the Military Commission is at least the size of ten marshals' palaces, and it is said that the largest room can even accommodate a full 2,000 people at the same time. The exterior of the council chamber resembles that of the old high-roofed churches, with a more red color leaning, and a rotating cylindrical staircase corridor descends from the high platform on the top floor, where the staircase is wrapped with flowers to celebrate the time of year, depending on the season.

Although this place is very close to the Marshal's Mansion, this is indeed the first time Xi Luo has walked inside.

An elevator is installed on the ground floor of the conference hall, so it takes a few seconds to go to any floor you want to go to, and there is no sense of weightlessness for passengers. The environment inside is much more modest than the outside, with white walls and wooden tables, and only a few nostalgic photos hanging in the aisle as decoration.

At the end of the corridor is an oversized bust photograph.

The man in the military uniform in the photo looks like he is in his early twenties, his black hair is pressed down by the military cap, revealing his handsome facial features, his brown eyes have a gentle smile in his eyes, and the navy blue military uniform makes people more upright.

"Luoluo."

Xi Luo's grandfather's voice echoed in his ears again, time seemed to have changed a lot, and it seemed that nothing had changed.

"Little master?" The housekeeper called out in a low voice, "Marshal Xi rarely took pictures when he was young, and this is the only one that is best preserved." ”

"It's a great shot." Xi Luo's gaze lingered on the photo nostalgically, and there were too many memories that could be remembered.

The system looked at the photo, then turned to look at its host, and said faintly, "Host, I finally know who you look like." ”

History books always say that Marshal Xi is beautiful, and he really didn't brag about it.

"Let's go." Xi Luo stopped watching.

There were more than 20 people sitting in the conference hall, including many people who knew Xi Luo, the chief, the current *****, and several retired veteran generals......

"Let's take a seat when you're here." The chief greeted with a smile.

"Okay." Xi Luo responded lightly, and after Jiang Lian and Qianqian beside him gave a military salute, they took the door and exited the room.

Xi Luo's seat was next to Mrs. Xi, and the current head of the Yue family also came and sat behind them. It stands to reason that if it was just a simple military meeting, it would not be able to fight with the Yue family. Looking at this posture, it should be inseparable from those rumors on the Internet.

"Luoluo." The young man on the right waved at Xi Luo, and when he laughed, he looked like a big boy, and he could make people forget all their troubles.

"Second brother is good."

Only then did Xi Luo find out that Xi Xiangyang was also here, and sitting next to him was her sister Xi Xiaoling.

Xi Xiangyang is the closest to Xi Luo among the three children, his personality is more casual, he sees fame and fortune very lightly, but he is particularly friendly to his two younger sisters.

"What time is it, go ask Xi Tianqin where he is!" The chief frowned, and his tone became much more serious.

"Report." The door of the council hall was opened by two other military uniforms, "Chief, Lieutenant Colonel Xi said that he couldn't come because of something, but he asked me to bring this note to you, saying that the reason for his non-coming is written on it." ”

"Bring it." The chief quickly unfolded the blank paper, only to see that there was only a big word 'boring' written on the paper, and he suddenly became angry, "It's nonsense!" ”

The old general waited a little impatiently: "What happened?" Give us a word of approval, don't make us wait. ”

The chief coughed dryly, the old general's qualifications are the oldest here, and he can only laugh dryly: "I mentioned to you before, Marshal Xi's grandson, that is the very talented boy Xi Tianqin, there are some things in the army, I'm afraid I won't be able to come today." ”

"Can't come? Then disqualify. The old general had a tough attitude, "He doesn't care about himself, why should we care about him, hurry up." ”

The chief's face was a little embarrassed, and he hesitated and said: "Xi Tianqin has also had a record of this assessment before, since he doesn't have time to come, let's just use the previous results, what do you think?" ”

"I agree, that's fair." Cao Cong was the first to agree, and then several people who were not very senior agreed.

The old general didn't seem to expect this group of people to be able to play like this, so he simply snorted coldly and stopped talking.

"May I ask what the assessment is?" Xi Xiaoling still has a paralyzed face, and it is easy to think that she doesn't get along when she speaks.

"Don't worry, I'll take my time." The chief stood up, "Did anyone have an opinion on my proposal just now?" If not, I'll pass first. ”

"The main reason for calling you here this time is to select the next heir of the Marshal's Mansion, which is also based on the request of your father, Admiral Xi, in a word, it is four words - the capable live in it."

"Then I abstain, and I'm not interested, thank you." Xi Xiaoling refused without thinking about it.
