Chapter 159

It was not pleasant to meet the saint for the first time. Bai Xian didn't dare to ask for any reward from the emperor, as long as she didn't punish her crime because of the false imperial edict. The uneasy Bai Xian returned to the room. Days of fatigue made her fall asleep quickly. It was hot and irritable in the summer afternoon. She didn't hear someone sneak into her room and go out.

In the afternoon, Lan Shi, who returned to Zhuangzi, rushed to Bai Xian's room: "sister Bai Xian, wake up. The holy Master said to hold a celebration banquet in the Palace tomorrow night and ask you to go with the general."

The confused white fairy was shaken up by her. Hearing this, her sleepiness immediately disappeared: "did you say that the emperor asked me to go to the celebration banquet with the general?"

Lan Shi nodded excitedly: "it's an oral instruction from the palace. The general asked me to tell you quickly."

Bai Xian nodded. It seemed that the emperor was not really angry. She thought of the scene when Princess Shuya pulled Shaoyue when she left in the morning. She said casually, "are you from the house? Has Princess Shuya gone back with the general?"

Lan Shi looked at Bai Xian in surprise: "how do you know? Could it be that you were entangled by her at the gate of the palace. This princess Shuya ran with the master all day. She's really not reserved at all."

Bai Xian felt a pain in her heart. Sure enough, Princess Shuya had a deep love for Shaoyue. As soon as he returned to Luodu's house, she followed him eagerly. She reluctantly showed a smile and knocked Lan Shi's head: "well, people are princesses. Don't speak ill of people behind their backs."

Lan Shi saw the injury in Bai Xian's eyes and hurriedly hugged Bai Xian's arm: "sister Bai Xian, you are a hundred times better than Princess naloshi. Don't worry, the master doesn't like her. No one in the government likes her, but I'm sorry to tear my face in person."

On the way back to Luodu, Bai Xian once asked Shaoyue and the guards about Luodu. Therefore, Bai Xian knew a lot about the important officials in the court, several factions and several high-ranking concubines in the palace.

Although the holy emperor seems very unhappy with the queen and the crown prince, he dotes on Princess Ping'an and Princess Huixin. In addition, there are a lot of courtiers who are interested in the legitimate and common people in the court. The holy emperor will not let any Princess marry the Shao family who holds the power of the army at this time.

Bai Xian understood the joints, but she thought that Princess Shuya could show her admiration for Shaoyue openly, but she could only press her feelings at the bottom of her heart. She felt a little wronged and her eyes couldn't help getting wet.

In front of Lan Shi, she had to cover up quickly. Bai Xian said, "did the old general scold the general?"

Lan Shi shook his head reluctantly: "the old general called the master directly to the study. We can't hear anything outside."

Bai Xian was worried that he had made a bad impression on the Shao family because he had a false imperial edict. He used very little for dinner. After dinner, Shen Yunqing took Bai Xian for a walk in Zhuangzi. Su Qingliu wanted to keep up, but he gave up when he saw Bai Xian's face.

Bai Xian regarded Shen Yunqing as a good friend before. Now they have become sisters. Their feelings are naturally deeper than before. Seeing the unhappy Bai Xian, Shen Yunqing said, "sister, why are you unhappy today?"

Bai Xian smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm afraid the holy master will blame the general for using the false imperial edict. They all blame me for being too reckless and bringing trouble to the Shao family."

Although Bai Xianbai's mother and Shen Yunqing borrowed from Shaoyue's Chuang Tzu, Shen Yunqing still put Bai Xianbai in front of Shaoyue. Hearing Bai Xianbai's remorse, she said seriously, "elder sister, no, the holy master won't be so confused. You saved a lot of people."

Bai Xian hurriedly covered Shen Yunqing's mouth: "you, you, you can't talk nonsense. Do you know?"

They walked back to the yard hand in hand. As soon as they entered the door, Bai Xian saw Shao Yue standing in the yard. Today, he just came home and wanted to do a lot of things. Unexpectedly, he would take the time to come here. Bai Xian greeted him: "general, come here at this time, but what's important?"

Shao Yue saw Bai Xian dressed in women's clothes. Even if the human skin mask blocked her beautiful face, it couldn't stop her temperament. He always felt that Bai Xian was like an orchid, always open and fragrant.

But at the moment, Bai Xian's alienation made him unwilling. Shao Yue smiled and said, "for the dinner in the Palace tomorrow, would you change into a woman's dress and go with my mother?"

Let alone Bai Xian, everyone in the hospital was stunned. As a counselor of the Shao family, Bai Xian wanted to wear men's clothes at the dinner tomorrow, so that others wouldn't gossip because he had been in the military camp for a long time, but Shaoyue came all the way to make himself dress up in women's clothes. What's the purpose of this?

"General, I'm a counselor of the Shao family. I should obey the general's arrangement, but isn't it wrong to wear women's clothes?"

The worry of Bai Xian is too much. If she changes into a woman's dress, she will follow the Shao family's entry into the palace. It will certainly attract more attention. Otherwise, she will say that the princess Shu Ya, who has been coveted by Shao Yue for a long time, will surely be more elusive than the white fairy stick. If he opens the golden mouth, the woman should not enter the barracks, then all her efforts will become bubbles.

Shao Yue took Bai Xian to one side and looked at Bai Xian's slightly wrinkled eyebrows. How he wanted to stretch out his hand to help her heal, but he was not qualified to do so. At least now he is not qualified: "xian'er, don't think too much. It's your grandfather's decision. Let's listen to him."

Hearing that it was general Shao's arrangement, Bai Xian reluctantly agreed. In fact, she was worried too much. Although in ancient times, gender discrimination was much more serious than in modern times, in Dayin, a strong country, people's customs were quite open. It often happened that those excellent women were granted female officials by the holy emperor.

"Well, I'll wait for you at the gate of the Palace tomorrow. Also, general, call me Bai Xian in the future. I don't want too many people to know my real name."

Shao Yue shook his head firmly: "xian'er, go back to Shao's house with me today. Pay special attention to the matching of clothes when attending the Palace Banquet. There are not all things here. You'd better go home with me first to avoid any mistakes."

Today's Shao Yue seems to have figured out something. When facing Bai Xian, she is a little less shy and retreat, and more firm and determined. Bai Xian's face is red, which makes her say to her mother and the people: "general, why don't I go to Shao's house early tomorrow morning and don't bother today."

Shao Yue raised his head and saw the white mother and Shen Yunqing who were not worried, and Su Qingliu who was standing by and wanted to stop talking. He sighed helplessly: "well, ask Xiaolan to take you to Shao's house early tomorrow morning. I will wait for you at the door."

Seeing Bai Xian finally nodded, Shao Yue planned to leave. Unexpectedly, Su Qingliu suddenly ran over and stopped them: "young master, young grandmother, no, two masters, please let Liu Niang stay here. Master Bai saved my life. I'll be master Bai's servant and serve her all my life."

Bai Xian was most afraid of someone kneeling in front of him. These ancient people didn't seem to take kneeling as a serious thing. They always knelt at others. No, as soon as Su Qingliu finished speaking, he fell on his knees and startled Bai Xian.

Bai Xian immediately came forward to help Su Qingliu, but Su Qingliu seemed to be iron hearted. She couldn't get up without hearing Bai Xian's accurate words. She couldn't help Su Qingliu several times. Bai Xian, tired and sweating, had to ask Shaoyue for help.

Looking at Bai Xian's begging eyes, Shao Yue wanted Su Qingliu to swallow his words elsewhere. He nodded helplessly: "then you'll stay here."
