"General Yuchi, I will not accept this decree!”
Bai Lie shook his head and said casually.
"What?"
But when Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Chumo heard it, it was like a clap of thunder.
"What?"
"Bai Lie, did you reject His Majesty's decree?”
Yuchi Jingde even dug his ears, looking as if he had misheard.
"That's right!"
"General Yuchi, I really do not accept this edict.”
Bai Lie shook his head again with a determined expression.
"Big Brother Bai, this is His Majesty's decree.”
"Moreover, this is the position of Marquis, the noble title of the invincible Champion Marquis."
Cheng Chumo stood beside Bai Lie and shouted anxiously.
As the famous Little Demon King in Chang 'an, he knew Chang' an too well.
Even though Bai Lie was born in a humble family, the title of Marquis Champion could cover up all flaws and make him a rising star in the circle of nobles.
Cheng Chumo couldn't understand why Bai Lie would refuse the title of the invincible champion.
Even Yuchi Jingde was so angry that his face turned green and white. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
A moment later, he suddenly snorted and looked at Bai Lie."Bai Lie, this is His Majesty's edict. Do you think you can accept His Majesty's edict as you wish and not as you wish?”
Bai Lie looked at Yuchi Jingde, who was about to explode from anger.
He smiled bitterly and scratched his head.
Ever since this Yuchi Jingde saw him, he treated him as a nephew. He could naturally sense it.
Therefore, afraid that Yuchi Jingde would fall ill from anger, Bai Lie hurriedly waved his hand and said,"
"General Yuchi, please listen to me."
"Although I, Bai Lie, have rendered meritorious service in saving the people of Ying Province and even killed the Eastern Turkic Great Khagan Ashina Tuli by a fluke, it is only right for me to be rewarded.”
"However, do you think this is enough to make him the invincible Marquis Champion?”
After he finished speaking, Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Chumo fell silent.
Bai Lie was right.
To be honest, when he first saw the news of this reward, his heart also jumped suddenly. He felt that this reward was too generous.
"But, Big Brother Bai, since this reward has already been given and His Majesty has personally issued an edict, it would be a waste if we don't accept it.”
Cheng Chumo said.
"Cheng Chumo, don't you know that you're not fit for your position?”
"I, Bai Lie, naturally know that killing the Eastern Turkic Great Khagan in this battle is a great merit. If the other marquises were offered, then so be it, but if it's the title of Marquis Champion, I, Bai Lie, don't dare accept it.”
"You must know that the title of the invincible champion is the Great Han Huo Qubing. He expelled the Xiongnu and killed in all directions.”
"And my contribution is not worthy of the title of Marquis.”
Bai Lie waved his hand.
He said to Yuchi Jingde,"Uncle Yuchi, I really don't dare to accept Your Majesty's reward."”
Yuchi Jingde looked at Bai Lie, and the admiration in his eyes grew stronger.
To be able to put oneself in the right place,
It was rare.
He patted Bai Lie's shoulder and said,"You, Bai Lie, are not bad."
"I only understood this when I was forty-seven years old.”
"If it weren't for your engagement, this old man would have betrothed my daughter to you!”
Suddenly, when Yuchi Jingde said this, Cheng Chumo waved his hand at Bai Lie, afraid that Bai Lie would agree.
Yuchi Jingde turned his head and glanced at Cheng Chumo. He said angrily,"You brat, my Baoyu can't marry you no matter what.”
"Thank you, Uncle Yuchi, for letting me go."
Cheng Chumo quickly bowed.
Yuchi Jingde angrily kicked Cheng Chumo, but Cheng Chumo suddenly panicked and dodged.
" Not bad, kid!" Yuchi Jingde scolded with a smile." You've been following Bai Lie for a few days, yet you're actually able to dodge my ferocious tiger kick."”
As he spoke, he pointed at Bai Lie and said,
"Cheng Chumo, you should learn more from Bai Lie in the future.”
With that, he turned around and left.
"All of you should stay in Ying Prefecture City for now. I know that you can't stay idle, Bai Lie, so I'll give you a pass token. If you run far away, you can use the pass token to come back faster.”
Yuchi Jingde laughed loudly and said,"
"I have accumulated enough merits. Naturally, I will return to Chang 'an City to accept the reward that should have belonged to me.”
"Haha, I'm going to show off in front of Cheng Yaojin when I get back.”
As he spoke, he added,
"Bai Lie, you brat, you disobeyed the decree and refused to accept the reward. This is a major crime.”
"I'm going back to wipe your ass.”
