Chapter 140: Mysterious Woman
"Come in!" the king's voice rolled from the hall. Xiao Tian and the three of them walked into the hall, there were nearly a hundred generals standing on both sides, the last general was wearing a black iron armor, the person in front was wearing Mithril armor, and the first few people were pure gold armor, Lin Zhantian and Huang Zhan were in the ranks.
When the emperor saw the three of them entering the hall, he smiled and said, "In the battle of Wuyuan Mountain, you and other bloody battles have made me not lose a point in the territory, and I am very pleased." I wonder how you want me to reward you?"
"Your Majesty doesn't dare!" Xiao Tian and the others said at the same time.
"Hehe, since you don't say it, then let me arrange it!" he waved his hand, and the palace official next to him stepped forward to unfold the holy decree that had already been written.
"Wu Yuanshan General Lu Yunfei takes the order!" the palace officer raised his voice.
"Wu Yuanshan guard general Lu Yunfei has made outstanding achievements in retreating the demon clan thieves, and he has been specially awarded the title of Zhonglang General, the title of Earl of Jin Weiwu, and rewarded three earth-level exercises, two heaven-level exercises, one Xuan-level exercises, three hundred spirit stones, a thousand pills, and a pair of Mithril armor, which can be opened in the imperial city. Chin thisβ"
"Thank you, Lord Longen-" Lu Yunfei thanked him.
Then the palace officer on duty continued: "Sergeant Xiao Tian of Wu Yuanshan received the order! Sergeant Xiao Tian went deep into the hinterland of the demon clan to find out the misdeeds of the demon clan regardless of his safety, so that our dynasty could prevent trouble before it happened, and his contribution was indispensable. In the battle of Wu Yuanshan, he killed the enemy bravely and bravely, and specially canonized Xiaotian as Zhiyong Bo, Zhonglang General, a thousand quintals of spirit stones, a thousand pills, three earth-level exercises, two heaven-level exercises, and a pair of Mithril armor, which can build a clan and open a mansion. β
"Thank you!"
"Haha! Are you satisfied?" the emperor asked.
"The minister is very pleased!" replied the two.
The emperor then looked at Huang Zhan and Lin Zhantian meaningfully, "Are you still satisfied with my decision?"
The people in the palace all said in a deep voice: "My emperor is wise!"
Lin Zhantian frowned and took a step forward and said: "Qi Sheng, these rewards are enough to show that my emperor is a generation of wise and benevolent monarchs, and he is a model for ministers, but General Xiaotian is still young, and his time in the army is still short, if he is afraid that it is a little inappropriate to take charge of an army, it is best to hang a false post and experience it first, as the saying goes, Mu Xiu will be destroyed in the forest, and the minister is also a pity for talents, and I hope that the saint will think twice." β
The other generals in the palace also bowed their heads and said yes, Huang Zhan just wanted to fight, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh heavily, knowing that all the sects didn't want to see Xiaotian rise too early, so as to break the existing balance, and in order to take care of the overall situation and not become the target of the public, he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.
"Hmm!" The emperor nodded and said: "What Aiqing said makes sense, since this is the case, let's take the position of general in the military department first, don't be busy taking office, I will raise a general, and during this period, I will first talk about the matter of building a clan in the lower realm." β
"Your Majesty Xie!" Xiao Tian commanded, although he understood that Lin Zhantian was trying every means to exclude Xue Zang, but he had no power to refute, so he could only wait for the opportunity slowly.
Huang Zhan's mansion is located at the foot of Wuhuang Mountain, covering a vast area, pavilions and water pavilions are readily available, the two of them sit in the hall to send wine and food, and Huang Zhan sighed and said: "Alas! Today's junior brother is not surprised, senior brother has done his best!"
"Where! Although I haven't entered the court, I've heard about it, so I don't have to blame myself, I'm already very satisfied!"
Huang Zhan shook his head after drinking and said: "I am very relieved that my junior brother is empathetic, I really don't hide that if it weren't for the interests of the sect over the years, I would have resigned and returned to Guangyuan Sect." Okay now, you're here, it won't be long before you can be on your own, and then I can go back to the old man's house to find Master, and I've had enough of staying in this imperial city!"
"Oh, why did Senior Brother retreat?" Xiao Tian asked.
"Hehe! In the eyes of outsiders, I am highly respected in the imperial city, and who knows the hardships in my heart? We martial arts practitioners like the sea and the sky to be uninhibited, but now we live in intrigue and deceit every day, how can I endure it?"
After hearing this, Xiao Tian was quite touched, and said secretly in his heart: If it weren't for the purpose of exploring the whereabouts of his parents and the Tang family, why wouldn't he be? Thinking of this, he asked Huang Zhan: "Senior brother, do you know what the position of the military general is?"
After hearing this, Huang Zhan sighed and said: "There are one Shangshu, two attendants and three generals under the Ministry of War, and the so-called staff generals are all idle people who have been put on hold, as far as I know, there is indeed a vacant position in the Ministry of War now, which is an idle post for handling files." β
When Xiao Tian heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "The files of the previous military attaches are in this category?"
"Of course, what are you asking this for?"
"Nothing, just ask!"
"Forget it! Let's not talk about that, you better start preparing for the establishment of a family in the Nether! When the time comes, the Emperor will send someone to the Nether to help you issue a holy decree. You're going to live here these days before your mansion is settled!"
"Thank you, brother. Xiao Tian saluted.
"You and I are polite, you have worked hard all the way to the mansion to rest, and we will drink again another day!" Huang Zhan said after drinking the wine in the cup.
"No, I'm going to go out for a walk. β
"It's okay! This imperial city is still quite lively, and it is right to walk around and relax. β
"Senior brother, why is this imperial city like a city?" Xiao Tian said puzzled.
Huang Zhan said with a smile: "That is the way the kings of the past want to watch their people live under their protection at all times, so that they will have a sense of accomplishment, and to put it bluntly, it is meaning~ lewdness." Okay, I won't talk to you, I still have official business to deal with. β
"Senior brother is busy with you, I'll just take a walk at will!" Xiao Tian walked outside the mansion after speaking. Leaving the Yellow Mansion, he did not tour the city, but came to the beautiful mirror lake behind the imperial city, looking at the intoxicating scenery, he couldn't help but take a deep breath of coolness, and felt that the irritability of many days was also relieved. The Imperial City can only prohibit fighting, so he can rest assured here that he will not be plotted by Lu Yunfei.
Xiaotian lay comfortably on the grass and looked up at the blue sky, lazily counting the white clouds.
Suddenly, a light boat slowly fell from the sky, the exquisite carving of the light boat is not a mortal thing at a glance, and the seven treasures exquisite boat, which has always been regarded as the treasure of Xiaotian, is eclipsed on its side, and it is enviable after looking at it.
There is a woman standing on the boat, holding a brocade embroidered umbrella, her face is enchanting and charming, her outfit is gorgeous and refined, and the light gauze cloud belt flutters with the wind, like a nine-day Xuannu falling into the world, Tingting is envious of countless mortals.
Seeing this, Xiao Tian hurriedly hid behind a gourd tree, and secretly said in his heart: Only walking is allowed within three hundred miles of the imperial city, this woman dares to volley into the air, and her identity is naturally extraordinary, and it is best not to have too much intersection with such people when she first arrives here, so as not to burn herself.
The light boat under the woman's lotus feet landed on the surface of the lake, swinging in circles and rippling, and the fish playing under the surface of the water swam one after another. She smiled and shook her jade arm slightly, the cloud belt slapped on the water, the light boat rowed forward, the quiet lake surface sparkled ripples, and the graceful figure on the water surface rippled with the ripples, swaying like a spiritual snake, which made people reverie after watching it. But Xiao Tian didn't dare to covet the beautiful scenery, he quietly walked back while the woman was not paying attention, for fear of extraneous branches
