Catch a thief to warm the bed

This seemed to be the first time that Baichucheng knelt down in front of the emperor since the first emperor allowed Baichucheng not to kneel.

"Your Majesty!" Bai Chucheng yelled these two words with internal strength, Bai Chupei was powerless, his chest hurt from the shock, and the jade pen in his hand was crushed by him, but he didn't show any discomfort on the surface.

Bai Chucheng knew that Bai Chupei didn't want to show weakness in front of him, so he continued: "I have been in the army for ten years, experienced countless battles, big and small, and suffered from many diseases in my body. Now I am peaceful and peaceful, and strong enemies dare not attack. Please resign .”

Bai Chucheng yelled out every word with internal force. Although he controlled the intensity to ensure that Bai Chupei's life would not be hurt, it would not make Bai Chupei feel better.

After finishing speaking, he ignored Bai Chupei who was stunned on the chair, put the general's seal on the table with a "dang", put on the bamboo hat and went out.

When they reached the outer hall, Bai Chucheng stopped.

I saw Bai Chucheng's chest trembling slightly, and then heard a few muffled groans from the roof.

Bai Chucheng didn't stay for long, and he didn't leave through any palace gate, but directly used Qinggong to return to the general's mansion.

Bai Chucheng still didn't go through the main entrance, he flew into the general's mansion like a gust of wind, and landed steadily in front of Jingning's house.

Although the door on the first floor of Jingning Residence was locked, it was not locked.

Bai Chucheng pushed open the door, and all he could see were layers of curtains.The curtain divides the first floor of Jingning Residence into two parts, one part is where Baichucheng stands now, and it is as wide as the stairs.Baichu City parted the curtain, revealing a huge iron gate.Bai Chucheng knocked on the door a few times seemingly casually, and then a jade flute slipped out of his cuff and fell into his hand. Obviously this jade flute was the key to open the door, and it was the Xuanbing that Lin Pei had been looking for so hard. Jade flute!

One end of the Xuanbing Jade Flute is the keychain, and there is a "click", and the iron door makes a dull sound, and the door slides open to both sides, revealing the world behind the door.

A piece of white and soft light slowly flowed out from behind the door, casting a layer of haze on Baichu City.

Bai Chucheng stepped into the small room behind the door, and with a wave of his hand, the door closed automatically.

There are no candles in the room, and there is no window. Although there are a few holes on the wall the size of an adult's little finger, they can't illuminate the room—the only light source in the room is a grown man's thumb-sized hole on the roof. This pearl was given to him by Bai Chucheng's father, Bai Qihan.

The bright pearl can't illuminate the room as if it were daytime, and the misty light makes people feel calm - this is the wonder of this Ning Xin Pearl, and it is also the main reason why Bai Qihan gave the pearl to Bai Chucheng.

The room was without any furniture, and the floor was covered with a cashmere carpet.The carpet hadn't been cleaned for a long time, and a thick layer of dust had already accumulated, but Bai Chucheng didn't mind, he sat down casually.

Bai Chucheng looked at Ning Xinzhu on the roof, and his thoughts suddenly went back to when Bai Qihan handed the beads to him.

In the Battle of Baiguan seven years ago, Baichu City led troops to repel Dayun's attack, and Dayun's envoy followed him back to Beijing. This Ning Xinzhu was presented to Bai Qihan by Dayun's envoy.

That night, Bai Qihan summoned Bai Chucheng and told Bai Chucheng that he was planning to make Bai Chupei the crown prince, and hoped that Bai Chucheng could fully assist his brother.

"Chenger." The old voice was full of majesty. Although Bai Qihan was in his twilight years, he did not look old at all. Bai Chucheng even believed that if his father wanted to compete with him, even if he went all out, he might not be able to win his father. Emperor.

Bai Chucheng stood in front of Bai Qihan with his head bowed, his expression was cold, and there was a little unwillingness in his eyes.

"I know you are unwilling. Compared with your Peier, your intelligence is more suitable to be the emperor of Dajing." Bai Qihan's voice softened, and his tone was more loving, "It's just that although Dajing has countless people who govern the country Good talent, but after General Han, there is no other general talent. In this battle of Baiguan, you and the Bai family army have become famous, which will undoubtedly deter those who want to eat away at my Dajing."

When Bai Qihan said this, Bai Chucheng already understood what his father was thinking.

Bai Qihan only has two sons, him and Bai Chupei. If he inherits the throne, the border is invaded by enemies and it is difficult to resist. When he has to lead the army, it will be the most critical moment of Dajing; if Bai Chupei inherits the throne, he will be in a maneuver In this state, if someone dared to attack, he didn't mind blood staining the rivers and mountains.

It is impossible to say that Bai Chucheng has no desire to fight for the throne, after all, he is better than Bai Chupei in every aspect, except...

Thinking of this, Bai Chucheng smiled wryly. There are some things that he knows he can't do.

Of course, Bai Qihan's words could not make Bai Chucheng change his mind immediately.

"I know you have always thought that the throne should be yours. After all, you are better than Pei'er in all aspects. But, I don't need an emperor who can't help my Bai family." Bai Qihan looked serious, his cold eyes fell On the back of Baichucheng's neck, Baichucheng shuddered involuntarily.

After slapping him, he would naturally give him a sweet date, and the sweet date Bai Qihan gave was this Ning Xinzhu.

"Ning Xinzhu has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. I give it to you not only in the hope that it can calm your mind, but also in the hope that you can calm me down." With supreme majesty, he held Ning Xinzhu up in front of Bai Chucheng with both hands, and Bai Chucheng knelt down in fear to catch Ning Xinzhu.

Back at the General's Mansion, Bai Chucheng hung Ning Xinzhu on the roof of the first floor of Jingningju - the three characters Jingningju were inscribed by Bai Qihan, hoping that Baichucheng could protect Dajing and peace.

Except for those who built Jingning Residence, no one would have thought that this small three-story building made of wood and stone is actually built of fine iron walls.

Probably because of Ning Xinzhu's effect, Bai Chucheng's mind, disturbed by Bai Chupei, regained his peace.When Bai Qihan handed Ning Xinzhu to Bai Chucheng, he expected that Bai Chucheng would be uneasy due to too many killings and knots.

"Father, since my son promised to protect the Bai family's country, as long as I survive for one day, Dajing will never perish."

This was the oath that Bai Chucheng made to Bai Qihan before Bai Qihan passed away - what if he didn't unify the Three Kingdoms for a day, and didn't have a family for a day, these were Bai Chucheng's excuses for not marrying a wife.

Gathering his mind, Bai Chucheng exhaled a foul breath, then got up and left the small room on the first floor.

Bai Chucheng unlocked the door from the first floor to the second floor, and the second floor was opened.

As soon as Bai Chucheng stepped onto the second floor, Junxiu's eyebrows were knitted together, and the Xuanbing Jade Flute was tightly held in his hand, and at the same time, a chilling aura spread around his body.

There was an indistinct fragrance floating in the air, Bai Chucheng smelled it as soon as he opened the door, it was not a familiar smell to him.

The closer you go to the center of the room, the stronger the smell becomes.Bai Chucheng couldn't figure out how long that person stayed in his room, but he remembered the aura of this person, as long as he appeared by his side, he would definitely be able to catch him.
