Chapter 43: Commander of the Taishen Army

These sudden royal ornaments made the hearts of the crown princes, and even the princes and kings, who had just cooled down, come alive again. At that moment, Bai Wuqiu squinted his eyes at the official and wrote Bai Wuqiu's name on the crown prince's column under the signal of no return, which made the two stunned almost cry with excitement.

Seven days later is the auspicious day, according to the rules should not return to the palace wearing the robe and crown. personally accepted Liu Xuan's canonization in front of the hundred officials, and then went to the altar in the palace to burn the watch and sacrifice to the sky under the guidance of the first emperor. Only then did he officially become a prince and king.

And Liu Xuan is also generous about whether to return or not, and gave the old mansion in Chang'an City before Wang Mang ascended the throne to return to the palace as the holy cultivation palace. After Wang Mang became emperor, there were people who smuggled horses to completely renovate this great Sima Mansion. I don't know if the original site was enlarged for a generation, and at that time, several newly sealed princes and kings wanted this big mansion, but I didn't expect that in the end, this old guy was cheaper.

Taking advantage of the fact that there were still seven days left, the ceremonial official simply lived in the new palace where he could not return. Teach the Holy Cultivator King and the Crown Prince to perform the ceremony, but they are characters who have lived for hundreds of years, and they came from the Zhou Dynasty. The old guy's Zhou etiquette is much more orthodox than that of the ceremonial official, and at that moment, the ceremonial official devoted all his thoughts to the body of the Holy Xiu Crown Prince.

To everyone's surprise, there was no disdain for complicated etiquette. The monster took the initiative to follow the ceremonial officer, repeating the boring movements over and over again. Because a certain action was not done several times, Bai Wuqiu actually took the initiative to be polite to the ceremonial officer: "Excuse me, you will point again." Look at the old ...... I...... This prince did this, what did the Lord of Rites think? ”

Seeing that the second stunned man could still speak human words, Xiao Ren San, who was sitting on the side and watching the excitement, fell directly from the small horse in shock. After the little guy got up, he shouted at Bai Wuqiu: "Big nephew, it's almost done." You have also worked hard these days, and our ginseng asked the cook to stew ten chickens for you to make up. ”

Bai Wuqiu turned his head, frowned and looked at his little third uncle, and said, "Uncle Ren, you Meng Lang, now I see that the canonization of the car is gradually increasing. It should be fasting and bathing, how can you be reckless? If it causes displeasure from the heavens, it will bring calamity to the realm of holy cultivation. What will happen to my father, King Shengxiu, and what will this prince do......"

After saying nothing, Xiao Rensan blinked his eyes and didn't react for a long time. After relieving for a long time, he took a sip at the position of the second stunned man and said, "Phew! If you don't eat, you deserve to starve. I've just been talking for two days, what's the big deal! The one who, you go and say to the cook: "Chicken stew!" Lao Tzu left two to drink, and the others were cheap for those who asked for food outside! ”

In the past few days, it has really been opened, and it has followed the ceremonial officer every day. When eating, I only eat half a bowl of corn rice with a few kinds of green vegetables, and let Bai Wuqiu eat such food in the past, that is, scold it again, it is not a monster. Now for the sake of the name of the crown prince of the Holy Cultivator King, the second stunned man actually grabbed the corn rice accompanied by the grass in his mouth one by one.

It was easy to survive until the auspicious day of the zodiac seven days later, and Bai Wuqiu, who had lost a lot of weight, shook his whole body and followed him into the palace. It was easy to grit his teeth and follow the guidance of the ceremonial officials, and saluted Liu Xuan, the civil and military officials, and the various princes. After finally surviving the whole day, when it was dark, he was taken to the main hall of Liu Xuanci's banquet by the chief attendant of the palace.

The banquet set by the first emperor was very sumptuous, and the position of the monarch and the minister was done. It's just that at such a banquet, the emperor doesn't open his mouth, and the courtiers are not allowed to move chopsticks. At the moment, Bai Wuqiu stared at the chicken, duck and fish in front of him and couldn't stop swallowing his saliva. It had not beaten its teeth for a whole day, and its already hungry body swayed back and forth. It's just that Liu Xuan and Gui Wu are talking non-stop, and neither the emperor nor the Holy Xiu King have moved their chopsticks, and no one takes it seriously.

Before the banquet, Liu Xuan smiled slightly, and said to the returnee: "When I first arrived in Chang'an City a few days ago, I had a misunderstanding with the noble friend of the Holy Cultivator King. I also hope that the Holy Cultivator King will mediate from it, and Mr. Wu Mian has known about it for a long time. If it weren't for the Holy Cultivator King saying that the Son of Heaven should not step on the danger lightly, I would have already befriended Mr. Wu Mian. It's a pity, such a good chance."

He said with a smile: "Your Majesty is serious, Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and Wu Mian is just a grass people." After a few graces, Wu Mian was obedient. But how can I be a good man, I will be given the title of Holy Xiu by His Majesty. Now my old man is still like falling into the clouds, I really can't imagine that the old man will become a prince. ”

After listening to the words of no return, Liu Xuan smiled slightly. After a pause, he withdrew from the chamberlain, palace maids, and guards who were waiting on the side. Except for a dozen or so personal guards, the rest of them were all driven out of the main hall by Emperor Gengshi.

After seeing that there were no outsiders in the main hall, Liu Xuan said to the Returning Immortal: "Don't hide it from the Holy Cultivation King, I also built a team similar to the Tiger Ben Army when I first learned from Emperor Wu. I gave the name of the Taishen Army, but looking at the entire situation, no one could be the commander of the Taishen Army. If the Holy Cultivator King does not dislike it, I am willing to worship the Saint Cultivator King as the commander of Taishen......"

Before Liu Xuan's words were finished, he saw Bai Wuqiu, who was already trembling with hunger, suddenly rolled his eyes, and fell straight on the table. This action of the Crown Prince of Saint Xiu startled Liu Xuan, and at that moment, the instinctive body of the First Emperor fell backwards. The dozen or so guards guarding behind him instantly surrounded Emperor Gengshi, and more than a dozen people pulled out their matching swords at the same time, all the tips of their swords pointing at the father and son.

From the gap in the guards, the crown prince fainted when he saw that the person who just didn't return. Liu Xuan shouted in a low voice: "Presumptuous, the father and son of the Holy Cultivation King are all my distinguished guests, how dare you draw your sword against each other?" Don't all give me a ...... to step down."

After hearing Liu Xuan's words, these guards put away their swords. Except for the two Liu Xuan's personal guards, the rest of the people retreated backwards from the palace with their heads down. At this time, Emperor Gengshi said to the returnee: "King Shengxiu, is your crown prince suffering from some emergency?" Do you need to summon a doctor to treat the crown prince? ”

"It's not necessary," he said with a grin, and walked up to Bai Wuqiu, bringing the meat soup on the table under his nose. After smelling the aroma of the broth, Bai Wuqiu's nose twitched twice, and he just closed his eyes and took the meat soup and poured it down his neck.

After a bowl of meat soup was served, Bai Wuqiu's eyes opened again. At the moment, there is nothing to ask for and no understanding. Directly reached out and grabbed the food on the table, and desperately stuffed it into his mouth. The second stunned man was eating, and at the same time, he gestured with his hand, asking Gui to bring the food on his own table.

The old guy is from Bigu, and he doesn't need to eat. At the moment, for the sake of his cheap son who had just fainted from hunger, he directly dragged his table full of delicious food over, and he didn't ask for anything cheaper.

Liu Xuan looked at Bai Wuqiu's gobbling up, smiled slightly, and asked the two personal guards behind him to bring the food on their tables to the second stunned man: "Holy Cultivation Prince, eat slowly." I'll let people cook again. Can't be hungry for you......"

"Shut up!" When Bai Wuqiu was gobbling up, he heard Liu Xuan talk endlessly. At that moment, while continuing to stuff food into his mouth, he glared at the first emperor and said, "If you hadn't stopped our old guy and talked about it, Lao Tzu would have eaten and drunk enough." And what kind of holy cultivation crown prince is this, Lao Tzu is not doing it anymore! Old guy, think about it, haven't you really raised a little wife and children somewhere recently? Cheap them, now old guy, you even have the princess. ”

Since Liu Xuan became emperor, no one has rushed to reprimand Liu Xuan like this. However, for the sake of the face of not returning, the first emperor suppressed his anger and ignored all kinds of wants. Said to the Returning Immortal Again: "Holy Cultivator King, have you thought about what I told you about the Taishen Army just now?" ”
