After the prisoner presentation ceremony ended, it also marked the complete end of the turmoil in Hongqingshan, Xiangzhou.
At the same time, the news that Bai Yuxian had been promoted to the third rank of Imperial Guard General Tiance spread like a hurricane throughout Chang'an City.
The news soon reached Tiance Mansion, and there was an instant excitement.
The entire Wuhou Mansion next door also learned the news.
"General!"
Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Wang and others couldn't help but sigh in their hearts again, and at the same time they felt a little complicated.
This is a general, a third-grade general, and a general with real power who leads an army.
With such a prominent status and power, even since the founding of the Wuhou Mansion, it can be said that only a handful of people have reached this level.
And being able to reach this point undoubtedly means that Bai Yuxian has completely entered the highest level of the core of the Tang Dynasty.
The most important thing is that Bai Yuxian is only twenty-one years old now.
The 21-year-old General of the Forbidden Army, how far can he go in the future?
Become a marquis and worship a prime minister? !
"Husband."
After the prisoner presentation ceremony, Bai Yuxian quickly returned to Tiance Mansion.
At this time, mother Zhen and her five concubines Han Shiyin, Xiangling, Liu Yiren, Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi had already been waiting at the door with the entire Tiance Mansion for a long time.
"Congratulations to my son on his promotion!"
"Congratulations to your husband on your promotion!"
"Congratulations on your promotion, General!"
"."
Seeing Bai Yuxian coming back, everyone under the leadership of Zhen also congratulated one after another. Their faces couldn't help showing excitement and surprise, especially the leader Zhen, Han Shiyin, Xiangling, Liu Yiren, Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi are the five daughters.
At the same time, Mrs. Qin who was present couldn't help but feel excited and happy, and she was even more glad that she had chosen the right son-in-law, Bai Yuxian.
"The child has seen his mother."
"I met my mother-in-law."
Bai Yuxian also held up his hands and smiled, feeling equally happy in his heart.
After all, he was promoted to general, and from then on he became one of the core high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty. He also had real power to command an army. This made him unhappy.
At this moment, the formal appointment of the reward in the palace also arrived. A group of eunuchs and palace envoys riding on tall horses arrived, headed by a white-faced eunuch who looked to be in his fifties. From a distance, he saw Bai Yuxian raising the imperial edict in his hand and speaking.
"Tiance General Bai Yuxian accepted the order."
"Your Majesty Bai Yuxian accepts the order."
Bai Yuxian immediately bowed his hands to the eunuch's imperial edict.
Behind him, everyone in the Tiance Mansion also hurriedly followed Bai Yuxian to worship.
Seeing this, the eunuch opened the imperial edict in his hand and read loudly.
"Tiance General Bai Yuxian is loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and good at both civil and military affairs. He has done a great job in pacifying the unrest in Hongqingshan, Xiangzhou. Today, the Jin Dynasty has specially appointed the fourth-rank Tiance General Bai Yuxian as the imperial court's third-rank forbidden army Tince General. He has removed the former Tiance Center With the post of General Lang, he will continue to command the Tiance Army with full authority, and he will also be given a white python robe."
"Appreciate this!"
As the last two words of the imperial edict, "I admire this", fell, the eunuch closed the edict and immediately handed it to the White Jade Immortal with a warm smile.
"General Bai, take the order."
"I accept the decree from Bai Yuxian and thank Your Majesty for your kindness."
Bai Yuxian immediately bowed and thanked him again, then stood up and respectfully received the imperial edict.
"Congratulations to General Bai on his promotion. From now on, he will be called General."
The eunuch smiled and congratulated again, and then left with the people.
"Brother Bai, congratulations, congratulations to Brother Bai for your promotion."
"General Bai, congratulations. A small gift is not disrespectful. Congratulations to General Bai on your promotion."
"No, from now on I should change my name to General."
"."
As the imperial edict was completed, the entire Tiance Mansion soon became completely lively.
First of all, Wuhou Mansion and Han Mansion, which have the closest relationship with Tiance Mansion, arrived immediately and congratulated each other.
Mrs. Bai took a group of female relatives from the inner palace of Wuhou Mansion.
The Zhou family also brought a group of female relatives from the Han family.
And they all brought congratulatory gifts.
In addition, there are Bai Yuxian’s friends Li Bai, Cui Zongzhi, Su Jin, Du Fu, Wang Yanlin, Song Xiuwen and others.
Then some other classmates from the Imperial Academy and many civil and military dignitaries in the capital, and even many people whom Bai Yuxian had never socialized with before, all came to congratulate him and bring gifts.
However, these Bai Yuxian did not reject them. As long as they came to congratulate them, no matter whether they knew them before or not, they all registered their names and accepted the gifts.
After all, that's the unspoken rule.
If everyone accepts it but he doesn't accept it, wouldn't it be unsociable?
And people who don't fit in with the crowd are destined to be excluded.
Besides, if he didn't accept it, given his current status, those who gave the gifts would probably be afraid, worrying whether they had offended him in some way.
The entire Tiance Mansion instantly became crowded.
It wasn't until the afternoon that the entire Tiance Mansion slowly calmed down.
At this time, another group of palace envoys came to the gate of Tiance Mansion, bringing a carriage with them.
"General Bai, Your Majesty invites you."
The envoy looked at Bai Yuxian and said with a smile.
However, the visitor was sent by Li Longji from the palace to summon Bai Yuxian to the palace for an audience.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Bai Yuxian also smiled and said politely to his family before getting into the carriage.
At the same time, he couldn't help but guess whether Li Longji's purpose of recruiting him into the palace was simply because he was satisfied with himself and happy to put down the turmoil in Hongqingshan this time, or there were other purposes.
But it's definitely not a bad thing when you think about it.
And it just so happened that Bai Yuxian also needed to see Li Longji for something.
For example, Qin Yuniang, Li Sanlang and Sun Wuzhou under his current command, as well as some other former Hongqingshan rebels who were selected by Li Sanlang and Sun Wuzhou to persuade them to surrender and now surrendered to the Tiance Army, he still needed to report these matters to Li Longji and at the same time ask Li Longi’s blessing.
In addition, Bai Yuxian also plans to expand the Tiance Army to a size of no less than 30,000 Yulin and Yulin armies. He will definitely need to report this to Li Longji.
Finally, there are Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi. He also plans to take this opportunity to ask Li Longji to give the two women an imperial edict to promote them to his wives and remove their original status as concubines.
——
Half an hour later;
royal palace;
royal garden;
Bai Yuxian was brought to Li Longji.
"Your Majesty, bring General Bai here."
"Jade Immortal is here, come and sit quickly."
Seeing Bai Yuxian's arrival, Li Longji, who was sitting in the pavilion, stood up and took the initiative to come forward and said enthusiastically with a smile on his face.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty, and to the Jade Concubine."
Bai Yuxian immediately bowed respectfully to Li Longji, and at the same time, Concubine Yu was with Li Longji.
Concubine Jade is dressed in a silver-white palace dress with a pink jade belt around her waist. She looks mature and beautiful, with a charming face of about thirty years old, a plump and tall figure, and a dignified and noble temperament.
Bai Yuxian somewhat understood why Concubine Yu was so loved by Li Longji.
Because this is a top-notch beauty whose appearance, temperament, and figure are nearly 90%.
If anyone can overwhelm Yu Fei, even with Bai Yuxian's perspective, only Yang Yuhuan can overwhelm her.
Yang Yuhuan is really the only one, the proper reincarnation of Su Daji.
The female version of Bai Yuxian really thought she was joking.
"Haha, Jade Immortal doesn't need to be polite. Come and sit down and say, you gave me a big surprise in this battle at Hongqingshan."
Seeing Bai Yuxian's humble and respectful appearance, Li Longji couldn't help but like him more and more. He stepped forward and took Bai Yuxian's hand enthusiastically.
Being held by Li Longji, Bai Yuxian felt disgusted in her heart, but she remained calm on the surface.
"Eating the emperor's salary, being loyal to the emperor, and serving your majesty are the responsibilities that I should fulfill. It is also the honor of the Jade Immortal to make your majesty happy and live up to your majesty's high expectations."
Concubine Yu, who was following Li Longji, was looking at Bai Yuxian calmly. She couldn't help but marvel in her heart, thinking that there was such a handsome man in the world, and he was so outstanding in all aspects of civil and military talents. Really? The banished immortal descended to earth, no wonder Mingyue was fascinated.
Although this was not the first time she saw Bai Yuxian, every time she saw Bai Yuxian, she couldn't help but be amazed by it.
How can any woman in the world not be tempted by such a man?
Concubine Yu naturally knew about her daughter Li Mingyue's situation with Bai Yuxian.
"General Bai is loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and good at both civil and military affairs. It is a great blessing for our Tang Dynasty to have such an extraordinary person like General Bai."
"In my opinion, Your Majesty won General Bai, just like the Han Dynasty won the championship in the past."
Concubine Yu said.
Li Longji couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Because although Concubine Yu's words were comparing Bai Yuxian to the champion and then praising Bai Yuxian, Li Longji was also compared to Han Wu by Concubine Yu.
Anyone who knows Li Longji knows that in Li Longji's heart, he has always benchmarked himself against Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
