Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Light in the Night of the Ages

"This barbecue must be mastered by the heat, and the most important thing is to stay away from the open flame, because the meat is cooked with the heat of the fire, not by the fire. "Around the bonfire, a group of soldiers surrounded Pei Zonghao, all of whom came to ask why Pei Zonghao's meat was so fragrant.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, your status is honorable. Do you still have to cook your own meals on weekdays?" asked one of the soldiers.

"That's not it. Pei Zonghao replied.

"Then why is your barbecue so fragrant?

"It's useless, I'm all on my own. Pei Zonghao thought for a while and replied.

"Okay, I'm done. I'll take this one, and you'll bake it and eat it yourself." Pei Zonghao took the roasted eagle and got up from the pile of people and left.

In the carriage, Pei Zonghao handed the roasted eagle meat to Mu Xueye.

"Give. ”

looked at it, Mu Xue didn't move at night, and Pei Zonghao thought that she couldn't move at all.

Pei Zonghao took out a knife from the Qiankun bag, cut off a piece of the eagle meat in his hand, and fed it to Mu Xueye's mouth.

"What kind of meat are you?" asked Mu Xueye.

"Eagle meat. ”

"I don't eat it, it's good. ”

"Is there one?" Pei Zonghao took the meat to his nose and sniffed it, "This, I haven't eaten it before, I didn't expect it to be so fat." ”

"Then what should I do, I'll go find something to bake from scratch?" Pei Zonghao said.

"Forget it, I'll just drink a bowl of porridge. ”

After Mu Xue drank the porridge at night, she fell asleep, and the team cleaned up and repaired, and continued to set off.

Three days later, at noon.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, we are about to enter Beijing in half a day's journey. The voice of a cavalry centurion came from outside the window.

"Half a day? Okay, after entering Beijing, let's go to Shenxiao Palace first. Pei Zonghao said.

"Yes, my subordinates obey. ”

"This place is only half a day's trip from the capital, after sending her back to Shenxiao Palace, where should I go first? Do I go to my father's sworn brother first, General Chen Chu? Pei Zonghao thought in his heart.

"Little prince, the front is the capital. ”

The voice of the cavalry centurion came from outside the car again, and after Pei Zonghao heard it, he stretched out his hand and lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside.

A giant city that was taller and more majestic than Yunchuan City appeared in his eyes, "This is the capital? Where the emperors of all dynasties lived? This capital is also called the Dragon City, which means the place where the true dragon and the son of heaven live." ”

"Hehe, but it's really ridiculous, the demon dragon destroyed my home and killed my people. In ancient times, those people were naΓ―ve to think that dragons were divine beasts that would protect us and bless us. I think these beasts should all die! or they should all be enslaved! for my human race to drive!" Thinking of the demon dragon, Pei Zonghao's heart was filled with hatred.

"Stop! Where are you in the team, and what are you doing in Beijing?"

The soldiers at the gate of the city saw that in the ranks of Pei Zonghao and his party, the crossbowmen were holding arrows in their hands, and the infantry shield soldiers were unsheathed. At first glance, it was a team with real swords and guns, and with a solemn expression, he immediately asked.

"We are the troops waved by the Han Langcheng cavalry general Niu Tongtie, and this time we received the task to escort important people into Beijing. ”

"This is my military card. The centurion took off his military badge from his waist and dismounted and handed it to the soldiers defending the city. He didn't say that the person sitting in the car was Pei Zonghao, because before leaving, the general specially explained that none of them were allowed to tell the identity of the prince until His Royal Highness the crown prince did not identify himself.

"What kind of person? The soldier defending the city took the military card and glanced at the team, then continued to ask.

In Dayu, the princess and the concubine travel, generally use eight sedan chairs, ten palace maids, ten eunuchs, fifty crossbowmen, fifty foot soldiers, fifty cavalry, and fifty long knife hands.

The team in front of him was all ready, except for the eunuchs and palace maids, which made the soldiers guarding the city feel that this team had violated the king's law.

"This," said the leading cavalry centurion, who was momentarily speechless, not knowing whether to answer or not.

At this time, Pei Zonghao, who was in the car, heard the conversation between the two, and not only deepened the image of Niu Tongtie again, but also took precautions against this person's scheming. Sending troops to escort him into Beijing not only made proper arrangements for all daily necessities, but also took into account the etiquette of travel. This is really like wanting to be in front of others.

"Look here. Pei Zonghao took out the Shoulder to Shoulder King token and stretched out of the window from the carriage.

The soldiers guarding the city looked at Pei Zonghao's token, and they were not sure for a while, so they ran a few steps forward, and took a few closer looks.

"Bang!" the soldier immediately knelt down, and the armor on his body made a sound of rubbing against the ground. "Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Seeing his commander kneeling, the soldiers guarding the city didn't know what was happening. Immediately after, everyone knelt down with Wu Chang and bowed their heads gently.

"Okay, don't make a noise, let it go. Pei Zonghao said softly.

"Yes!"

"Clear!" the soldier shouted to his soldiers as he got up.

When the team entered the city, Pei Zonghao couldn't help but lift the curtain of the carriage and look out.

This capital is indeed not comparable to Yunchuan City, and the road in the middle of the city is ten zhang wide, all paved with stone slabs carved from rock. The towering restaurants, shops, inns, pawnshops, etc. on the left and right sides are endless. Everywhere is bustling, everywhere is hustle and bustle.

The crowd rubs shoulders on the wide road, and if you don't pay attention, you will step on the heels of the person walking in front.

"Wow! This capital is really prosperous, this is the first time I've seen it. For a while, Pei Zonghao felt as if he had become a frog at the bottom of a well, and when he came out, he found that the world was really big.

"Little Lord, shall we go directly to Shenxiao Palace?"

"Do you know the way?" Pei Zonghao asked the cavalry centurion.

"I don't know, but just ask someone and you'll know. ”

"In the capital, Shenxiao Palace is very famous. The centurion replied.

"Well, I'll leave that to you. ”

"Yes, the subordinates must be arranged. With that, the centurion rode to the front of the group.

At this time, the whole team also relaxed slightly, the long knife was back to the sheath, the arrow was back to the bag, and when they entered the capital, they generally no longer worried about the danger, and the tense nerves of the soldiers were also relaxed, but they still did not relax their vigilance.

"Xue Ye, have you grown up in this capital since you were a child?" Pei Zonghao asked Mu Xue Ye, who was lying beside him.

Mu Xue Ye didn't answer Pei Zonghao, and after a while, Mu Xue Ye asked, "Are you really the crown prince? Pei Zonghao, the only son of Pei Chengfang, the king of Yunchuan, the little prince who led the Yunchuan defenders to repel the beast tide siege?"

Pei Zonghao looked down at Mu Xueye and asked rhetorically, "What's the matter?"

"No, it's not. ”

"I thought that the little prince who is now known to the world should be a strong man with a strong body, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a beard at a young age. ”

"No, I didn't expect it...."

"I didn't expect me to be so handsome, right?" Pei Zonghao said after Mu Xueye's words.

Hearing Pei Zonghao say this, Mu Xueye's whole face suddenly turned red, and his pale face turned bloody.

"I really didn't expect that I'm so famous now. Seeing Mu Xueye's expression, Pei Zonghao felt a lot of pride in his heart for a while.

Now the entire Dayu people know that Pei Zonghao, the only son of the king side by side, is young and promising, brave and mighty, has the courage to crown the world, and has the wisdom of reincarnation. ”

In the face of the endless beast tide, he did not choose to retreat and escape, but led the Terran army to resist desperately and save the people of Yunchuan City from fire and water. ”

In the end, he also took the lead in the charge, chasing and killing the Purple Gold Shaking Heavenly King among the ten thousand beasts, forcing back the beast tide. ”

"This is a record that has never appeared in the history of the human race, Pei Zonghao can be said to have lit up a starlight when the long night was as dark as ink, giving hope to our human race. ”

"These have long been sung on people's lips. Mu Xueye regained her spirit as she spoke, but when she looked up at Pei Zonghao, she felt that her face had begun to burn.

"Oh, I'm a savior. Won't I be the hope of our Dayu whole human race from now on?"

"Did you know that you almost dashed the hopes of our Terran before? Pei Zonghao deliberately quipped.

"This, I, people didn't know before!" Mu Xueye's face was shy at this time, if her hands and feet could move, she would definitely touch her face with her hands, so as not to expose her lotus-like shame in front of Pei Zonghao.

Looking at Mu Xueye's shy expression, Pei Zonghao couldn't help but be attracted to this woman again.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you have arrived at the gate of Shenxiao Palace in front. The voice of the cavalry centurion outside the car came, waking Pei Zonghao up.

"Well, got it. Pei Zonghao replied.

When the team came to the gate of Shenxiao Palace, it slowly stopped.

"Where are you from the army, is there anything wrong with coming to my Shenxiao Palace?" The disciples of Shenxiao Palace behind the door saw this team stopping at the gate of Shenxiao Palace, so they opened their mouths to ask, and their tone was quite peaceful, after all, it was an army, and the disciples of Shenxiao Palace could not shout at will.

The cavalry centurion did not answer, but was waiting for Pei Zonghao.

Pei Zonghao hugged Mu Xueye and got off the carriage slowly. He glanced up at the Shenxiao Palace in front of him, and suddenly sighed in his heart, "Heh! This Shenxiao Palace is really powerful, it doesn't even have a wall." ”

Looking at the Shenxiao Palace in front of him, there was not even a wall around it, and six huge stone pillars formed a simple gate, and a stone-paved road behind the door led directly to the towering palace. Bursts of light smoke drifted around, covering the ground, leaving only the stone path, which looked full of fairy spirit.

"Who are you!Put her down!" At this time, a disciple of Shenxiao Palace in a white robe shouted at Pei Zonghao.

Pei Zonghao glanced at this person, and saw that this person was about twenty years old, with a handsome face, his sword eyebrows were furrowed, and his right hand was already holding the hilt of the sword at this time.

"I told you to put him down!" The handsome young man shouted angrily at Pei Zonghao, pulled out the long sword in his hand, and pointed the sword at Pei Zonghao.

"Bold!" the cavalry centurion shouted.

"Boom!" "Goo-goo-goo!" two neat voices came out, and at this time, the long knives of the infantry shield soldiers were unsheathed, and the crossbowmen were all full of bows.
