Chapter 20

"..."

After entering the imperial city, Ouyang Shaoqing and Guanyue, who had been guarding the door all the time, immediately greeted them, their faces were full of anxiety, and they forcibly swallowed the nervous words on their lips because they saw Zhuge's smile.

"Two...Miss Zhuge!" Ouyang Shaoqing changed it immediately before the word "Master Uncle" was called out, just like him, those disciples and grandchildren who met Yuan Zun also hated that generation!

Zhuge nodded with a smile, and the others also clasped their fists and called her respectfully.

Guanyue immediately said seriously: "My lord, it's time for us to enter the palace!" In fact, it was very late, but their lord did not come for a long time and asked the Loulan king to wait for them. How rude?

Before Bai Xiuyu could speak, Zhuge smiled and said, "Since the prince is going to enter the palace, I will take my leave first."

"I'll see you off!" Bai Xiuyu blurted out.

Sihu almost bit off his tongue, Ouyang Shaoqing also widened his eyes, what did the prince sing?
Zhuge Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned, and smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, but there is no delay in entering the palace, so I dare not bother you!"

Bai Xiuyu's eyes deepened, and Guanyue also put away his embarrassment, and said to his master who was obviously not seen by others: "My lord, we can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet after we leave the palace!"

Bai Xiuyu glanced at him and nodded: "That's true." Then he smiled at Zhuge: "Be careful on the road!"

I'm careful about your sister!Zhuge Xiaoxiao almost couldn't help but swear.

On the way to the palace, the two generals and the four foxes were confused, especially when they saw their prince like this, so what is the best way to describe it?
Sichun?

Ouyang Shaoqing moved closer to Guanyue, and asked in a low voice, "Is the prince possessed by something unclean? How about we ask the priest of Loulan to exorcise the prince?"

Guanyue was very calm: "No need, because that 'evil' is the priest's younger sister."

"..."

Zhuge Xueying, the second son of the Zhuge family, the second elder brother of Zhuge Xiaoxiao, is also a god-like existence in the ancient kingdom of Loulan - the high priest!

Bai Xiuyu was welcomed into the main hall by the chief steward of the palace. As the Ninth Prince of the Xixia Kingdom, he has a noble status and extraordinary ability. When he came to see him at the Golden Luan Hall in the ancient Loulan Kingdom, he only needed to perform the ceremony of the Xixia Kingdom. Wouldn't say he was rude.In the same way, if the ancient kingdom of Loulan sent a prince to the Xixia kingdom, he would also only need to perform the rituals of his own country, without bowing down.

Bai Xiuyu's tall and straight body and his prestige made all the officials in the court look sideways. Seeing such a young Marshal of Soldiers and Horses, they also gave a thumbs up in their hearts and praised him for being young and promising!
But under the scrutiny of King Loulan, Bai Xiuyu didn't show any timidity, his demeanor was calm and unruly, which left a good impression on Nalan Xiao's heart.

Bai Xiuyu simply explained the purpose of his visit - 300 years after the founding of the Xixia Kingdom, Emperor Taizu tricked people to travel to various countries to establish friendly relations after the country was stable.

During the two years of traveling around the country, the envoy representing Emperor Taizu himself left a heavenly stone in the four most friendly countries.Each celestial stone symbolizes peace and friendship, and this celestial stone is extremely hard. In order to allow future generations to maintain friendly relations with other countries, Emperor Taizu used a special technique to write letterheads on the four celestial stones.It is also a warning he left for future generations.

This time, Bai Longyue, Emperor Renzong of the Western Xia Kingdom, asked Bai Xiuyu to come to the ancient country of Loulan. On the one hand, he wanted to get medicine to cure the empress dowager's chronic illness, and on the other hand, he sent the bored Bai Xiuyu to take their founding emperor and leave it to future generations. warning.

The Tianshi was kept by the high priest and placed in the palace where the emperor sacrificed.

King Nalan Xiao, together with Zhuge Xueying, brought someone from afar to the temple.

On the white jade platform is a plate-sized transparent crystal-colored stone (diamond) with many facets, which looks exquisite under the illumination of the night pearl.

The middle part is a whole plane with very subtle text on it, but it can be seen with the naked eye.

"My lord, can I rub the words on it?" Guan Yue asked with a glance.

Nalan Xiao looked at Zhuge Xueying, Zhuge Xueying maintained his cold face, but nodded, "Yes."

"Thank you." Bai Xiuyu and the others thanked them, then took out something and started rubbing.

Bai Xiuyu was a little curious about what this celestial stone was made of. Zhuge Xueying seemed to see his curiosity, and said, "This celestial stone was originally a diamond in the desert, but it was artificially carved into a celestial stone. This stone The number is rare, very few of them are so big, and they are extremely hard, and the internal strength of the person who engraved them is extraordinary."

"My lord, we saw it before in the Wala Desert, it's really small." Silver Fox reminded.

"I remembered, the emperor's sister-in-law's bedroom also has it. When I was young, I used to play birds with the emperor." Bai Xiuyu said suddenly.

Nalan Xiao coughed dryly, Zhuge Xueying gave him a meaningful look.Guan Yue and Ouyang Shaoqing acted as if they hadn't seen anything.

After the rubbings were finished, Nalan Xiao warmly invited them to participate in the Yu Lan Festival before leaving.

The Yulan Festival is the most important festival in the ancient country of Loulan, and it is also a favorite festival for unmarried men and women.

"Is the prince and Mr. Ouyang not engaged yet?" Nalan Xiao asked with a smile.

Bai Xiuyu nodded: "Not at all."

"If that's the case, then I would like to invite my lord to have a happy day with my Loulan children." Nalan Xiao waved his hand and asked someone to bring a large red tray with seven fang-shaped things inside.

Bai Xiuyu saw at a glance that these were real spikes, and looked at the moon in the encyclopedia: "My lord, these spikes are ornaments that unmarried men and women in Loulan wear on the Yulan Festival, which means auspicious happiness. We are guests. , you need to respect the customs here.”

Of course, Bai Xiuyu was not so pedantic, and saluted Nalan Xiao: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"It's our country's honor to have a good time, my lord!" Nalan Xiao was also very happy.
