Chapter 201: Gifts
Temulan was silent.
I don't know why, my fist is a little itchy, and I want to beat someone for no reason.
Cao Yan was also dumbfounded: "You asked me to stay just to witness this?" ”
The purple-clothed county lord and Xiaoqing had expected it for a long time, and it was not unexpected.
"Alright, I'm done." Ye Xiaobai, who had just finished confessing, made a gesture of invitation to Tie Mulan as if he was nothing, "Iron Fairy, didn't you just say that you had something to say?" Now it can be said. ”
Temulan twitched in the mouth.
Even if he cultivated ruthless swordsmanship, he was still a little broken by Ye Xiaobai at this moment.
I didn't know how to speak for a while.
"Iron fairy?" Ye Xiaobai was puzzled: "Why don't you speak?" ”
Temulan took a deep breath and regained her indifference.
She stared at Ye Xiaobai expressionlessly: "I will send you a few things on the orders of Your Majesty." ”
Hearing this, Ye Xiaobai was surprised.
"The Empress?"
He didn't remember what he had in touch with the empress, what did the empress mean by sending things to him for no reason?
Wooing?
Test?
Or is it something else?
"This is 5 million taels of gold tickets." Temulan opened a wooden box, which contained a stack of large-denomination gold tickets, as well as a delicate jade bottle, "And this bottle, which was also given to you by His Majesty." ”
5,000,000 taels of gold!
The prince of purple clothes, Cao Yan, and Xiaoqing were all stunned by the empress's generosity.
Even with the identity of the Purple County Lord and Cao Yan, they have never seen such amazing wealth.
Although Ye Xiaobai was also a little surprised, he cared more about the delicate jade bottle.
There were a few drops of mysterious liquid in that jade bottle, which was the water of life that he had been thinking about!
Although it is not much, not even half of the water of life that the demon god Lu Qi gave to Fu Cai'er, there is no doubt about its value!
Of course, the value is still secondary, and the point is that Ye Xiaobai is currently in need of the water of life.
The empress's gift can be regarded as a gift to his soft underbelly.
"How does the Empress know I need the water of life?" Ye Xiaobai was both surprised and puzzled, "Why is she willing to give me such a precious thing?" ”
The value of the water of life, Ye Xiaobai knows it very well.
In comparison, the weight of 5 million taels of gold is a little worse.
After all, gold can be earned at any time, but the water of life is hard to find.
Although he didn't know what the empress had in mind, Ye Xiaobai still accepted the empress's gift, whether it was 5 million taels of gold or those few drops of water of life, he couldn't refuse.
"Thank you Empress for me, this gold and water of life should be lent to me by her, and I will pay her back in the future." Ye Xiaobai said solemnly.
Tie Mulan said lightly: "Your Majesty said to send, that is to send." You either take it or you reject it. ”
Ye Xiaobai groaned slightly: "Okay, I'll accept it." ”
It is impossible to refuse, whether it is for himself or for Fu Caier, it is impossible for him to refuse.
At this time, Tie Mulan said again: "Your Majesty asked me to tell you, Your Majesty admires you very much, if you are willing to quit the Heavenly Sword Sect and join the Great Zhou Imperial Court, Your Majesty is willing to make you a military minister, which is comparable to the status of Wen Xiang, second only to Your Majesty." If you have any other requirements, you can also ask Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will do his best to meet them. ”
As soon as these words came out, the Ziyi County Lord and several people were shocked.
"Wu Xiang!" Xiao Qing's eyes widened.
"Since the establishment of the Great Zhou Wu Dynasty, although there has been a position of military minister, it has been vacant, and no one has ever taken on this great responsibility, Your Majesty is willing to crown Xiaobai as the military minister!"
The purple-clothed county lord was a little incredulous.
Wu Xiang is the highest-ranking official position in the Great Zhou Imperial Court, under one person, above ten thousand, even her father has not been able to sit in this position.
She couldn't believe that the empress valued Ye Xiaobai so much, and directly promised Ye Xiaobai the position of military minister.
Before Ye Xiaobai could speak, Cao Yan objected fiercely: "No! ”
Everyone's eyes were on Cao Yan.
I saw that Cao Yan, who was still a little jealous of Tie Mulan, seemed to have completely forgotten the difference in strength between himself and Tie Mulan at this moment, and said loudly: "Elder Ye is the Elder of my Heavenly Sword Sect Battle Peak, and he is an inseparable part of my Heavenly Sword Sect, and it is absolutely impossible to join the Great Zhou Imperial Court!" Ti Mulan, you tell the empress directly, let her die of this heart! No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for our Heavenly Sword Sect to release people! ”
He said coldly: "If the empress insists on this, then we will have no choice but to tell the Sword Ancestor." ”
Others may not be worthy of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Empress to turn their faces.
But Ye Xiaobai is definitely worth it!
With the cultivation of the middle realm of the grandmaster, the cultivation of the extreme realm of the grandmaster, the unpredictable alchemy technique, and the alchemy technique of the supernatural spirit, these few points alone are enough to make the Heavenly Sword Sect die to protect Ye Xiaobai!
What's more, Ye Xiaobai has also practiced a heavenly decision, and his future achievements are limitless!
Temulan looked at Cao Yan indifferently.
Although Cao Yan was jealous in his heart, he refused to bow his head at all, and bravely looked at Temulan in the slightest.
This step must not be retreated, even if it is repaired by Tie Mulan, it cannot be retreated by half a step, the bottom line of the Heavenly Sword Sect cannot be trampled on by anyone!
"This is what Your Majesty means, if you have any opinions, you can go to Your Majesty to reason." Temulan said lightly.
Cao Yan froze, don't look at what he said so impassionedly just now, but if he really wanted him to say what he just said to the empress, he really didn't have the guts.
He decided in his heart that he would immediately revise a letter and inform the sect master Zong Que of this matter, and everything would be decided by the sect leader.
"Deputy Sect Master Cao, don't be impatient." Ye Xiaobai smiled and said: "Her Majesty the Empress just expressed her own thoughts, and did not force me to join the Great Zhou Imperial Court, whether or not to agree is up to me, not Her Majesty the Empress." As long as I don't agree, Her Majesty the Empress will not be able to force me to join the Great Zhou Wu Dynasty. ”
Hearing this, Cao Yan calmed down.
But when he thought of the empress's magnanimity, Cao Yan became uneasy again.
He wasn't sure if Ye Xiaobai could withstand such a temptation.
"I don't have the idea of leaving the Heavenly Sword Sect for the time being."
Ye Xiaobai said clearly: "No matter what, the Heavenly Sword Sect treats me well, and I have no reason to abandon the Heavenly Sword Sect." Of course, Her Majesty the Empress valued me so much that she gave me 5 million taels for gold alone, and in addition to that, there were a few more precious drops of water of life. In other words, shouldn't our Heavenly Sword Sect also have something to say? ”
Ye Xiaobai also vaguely sensed his own value.
Demon God Lu Qi obviously had the opportunity to kill him before, but he didn't do it, was it really because of the agreement between several martial gods?
Although the attitude of the Sword Ancestor towards him was not very close, his questions were almost always answered, and this kind of treatment could not be enjoyed by ordinary grandmasters.
The empress gave him 5 million taels of gold and a few drops of water of life for free, which was also something that other grandmasters could not enjoy.
He won't take the initiative to leave the Heavenly Sword Sect, but the Heavenly Sword Sect has to say something about it, right?
"This ......" Ye Xiaobai said it so clearly, of course Cao Yan couldn't pretend to be a fool, "I will ask the sect master for this matter, believe me, the Heavenly Sword Sect will definitely not treat you badly." ”
