"Your Majesty, the ministers are soldiers, and there are difficulties in the frontier, my emperor is willing to go to the sky, guard Yanyang City, and will inevitably recapture Ningzhou, even if the blood stains the battlefield, he will die to repay the emperor's kindness." At this time, the emperor strode out and bowed to the queen, and his tone was extremely generous. It's just that when he said this, the emperor quietly glanced at the eldest prince Ao Zheng opposite.

And the eldest prince Ao Zheng obviously noticed the gaze of the emperor, but pretended not to see it, and lowered his head to Her Majesty the Queen, looking calm and composed, but the corners of his mouth were sketched with a smile.

"Okay, now I know that you are the general of Zhengxi, commanding the Zhenxi Army, and I also allow you to transfer 20,000 Praetorian Guards and rush to Yanyang City together, I hope you can quickly rectify the Zhenxi Army and don't let me down." And at this time, the queen exhaled secretly, and looked at the emperor Xingtian and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huangfu Xingtian knelt down deeply, and after the queen raised her hand, she stood up and strode out of the main hall.

"The emperor Xingtian left Kyoto, and the position of the commander of the Praetorian Guard was vacant, ladies and gentlemen, what are your proposals?" Watching the emperor leave, the queen's gaze was slightly complicated, and then she slowly spoke.

At this moment, an official standing behind the eldest prince, after secretly and quickly exchanging glances with the eldest prince Ao Zheng, hurriedly walked out, knelt there and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zheng Guang, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, can succeed him, Zheng Guang is strong and has the material of a general, and he is the most suitable candidate." ”

As soon as these words came out, the other officials all nodded secretly. At the same time, in the queue of generals, a tall man also walked out quickly, kneeling in front of the queen, his expression calm, but he couldn't hide his excitement between his eyebrows, it was Zheng Guang, the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard.

However, the queen looked at Zheng Guang, but did not nod immediately, a pair of autumn-like eyes, revealing extremely solemnity at the moment, looked at the eldest prince Ao Zheng: "What does the eldest prince think?" ”

The eldest prince Ao Zheng looked at Zheng Guang and said in a respectful tone: "In the past few years, Zheng Guang has been under the command of Huangfu Xingtian, rectifying the Praetorian Guard, protecting the safety of the imperial city, and being loyal, so that he can succeed Huangfu Xingtian's position, I have no opinion. ”

"Okay, that's it! Zheng Guang, from now on, you are the supreme commander of the Praetorian Guard, and the security inside and outside the imperial city depends on you, I hope you can be loyal to your duties. The queen nodded, and her gaze immediately fell on Zheng Guang's body.

"Zheng Guang thanks Your Majesty for your grace, and the minister will not disappoint Her Majesty's expectations." At this moment, Zheng Guang hurriedly kowtowed, and his tone trembled a little because of excitement.

"Alright, let's all step down." The queen smiled, although the smile was enough to turn everyone upside down, but the majesty between her eyebrows was not close to her, and then, the queen stretched out her slender hand, rubbed her eyebrows, and got up and left the hall. Immediately, the civil and military attachés immediately knelt down and bowed to each other. At this moment, if there are outsiders present, in addition to sensing the majesty and majesty of the queen in the main hall, you can also perceive a subtle atmosphere that envelops the main hall.

The queen dispersed the court meeting, and the non-civil officials all left the hall one after another, and at this time, Zheng Guang, who was newly qualified as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, was almost full of spring breeze, and when there were few people, he walked quickly to the side of the eldest prince and said politely: "Zheng Guangneng has today, and thank the eldest prince for his support." ”

The eldest prince smiled, but his gaze was a little cold, and he did not speak.

Zheng Guang immediately realized something, and hurriedly whispered: "Zheng Guang will come to visit in the evening, and then listen to the teachings of the eldest prince, and he will retire at the end." After saying that, he quickly kept his distance from the eldest prince.

And the eldest prince Ao Zheng smiled slightly, and his elegant face showed an unusual depth at the moment, and then left the palace like no one.

At this moment, Xiaoice and Lu Chengying and I, after flying at the speed of Xiaoqi for several hours, also arrived outside Kyoto.

After landing, I put Xiao Qi away, and I heard Xiaoice standing there and let out a heartfelt voice of admiration: "It's so big, it's so spectacular, it's so beautiful." ”

I followed Xiaoice's line of sight, and was immediately deeply shocked, in front of us, there is a huge city, the city is full of high-rise buildings, lively, standing here you can hear the voices of people inside, and beyond the heavy pavilion, you can vaguely see the center of the city, the majestic and magnificent palace, in the sun, the glazed tiles on the layers of palaces, reflecting a brilliant golden light, magnificent, revealing a sense of majesty.

I looked at it blankly, and I knew in my heart that this was Kyoto in Qingbing Country, where power was most concentrated.

However, compared to the amazement of me and Xiaoice, Lu Chengying was full of calmness, but soon I understood that this kid was originally from Kyoto, and his hometown was here, which was not unusual or strange.

Next, under the leadership of Lu Chengying, we entered the city gate, the guards at the city gate, the armor is distinct, I don't know how much higher than Ningzhou City, but on their bodies, I feel a little less bloody. It's no wonder that no matter how strong the Praetorian Guard here is, it can't be compared with the Zhenxi Army when it is of the same level of ability, after all, the Zhenxi Army is on the front line and often fights with the enemy.

With Lu Chengying's leadership, we quickly entered the city, I have to say, Lu Chengying, this kid doesn't know what method to use, originally I was evacuated from the military, I and Xiaoice have no identity cards, but when at the city gate, Lu Chengying smiled and followed the captain of the janissaries guarding the door, I don't know what he muttered, and secretly stuffed something, the captain of the janissaries didn't say anything, and directly let me and Xiaoice in.

Walking through the bustling street, Lu Chengying took us to eat something in a restaurant, and then took us to the outside of a huge mansion in the west of the city. There are two big characters written on the door, which is very magnificent.

"it." At this moment, I was stunned, looked at the smiling Lu Chengying, and couldn't help but speak: "This is your home?" ”

Xiaoice, who was holding my arm tightly, couldn't tell the surprise at the moment.

"yes." Lu Chengying smiled, at this time, the two domestic servants at the door of the mansion hurried over, respectfully saluted Lu Chengying, and called Gongzi, and then, Lu Chengying led me with a confused face, and Xiaoice, into the inner courtyard of the mansion.

"My grandfather used to be an official in the court, and in my father's generation, although he is no longer an official, his father is also a famous talisman master in the capital, hehe, so the family background is quite solid. In my generation, my father died early, I was also alone, and my mother was very fond of me, so it also created my unrestrained character, and my mother couldn't control me, so she let me travel everywhere. At this moment, Lu Chengying told me about his family background while walking, and his tone was very casual.

And I, looking at the quiet and elegant environment around me, Nima, such a big mansion, or in Kyoto, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money, right? I secretly thought in my heart, and at the same time, I was extremely shocked, I really never expected that Lu Chengying would have such a family background, Nima, if this is placed in the Apocalypse Continent, it will be an absolute rich second generation.

No, it should be the second generation of officials.

"Brother, what did your grandfather do? It's huge, right? At this time, I was a little curious, so I couldn't help asking.

"You really think about it, my grandfather was just a petty official back then, in this Kyoto, the bigger the official lived, the closer it was to the palace, you also saw it, our Lu Mansion, but on the edge of Kyoto." Lu Chengying smiled and said.

While talking, Xiaoice and I were taken to the front welcome hall, and then we met Lu Chengying's mother, a very friendly middle-aged woman, very well maintained, very friendly to people, very good to me and Xiaoice.

After meeting Lu Chengying's family, we were arranged in a separate small courtyard at the back, with a small garden and a pond, and the environment was very good.

"Tang Hu, you will live here in the future, I have deployed a formation outside this small courtyard, what are you doing here, no one outside can hear it, haha." At this moment, Lu Chengying deliberately glanced at Xiaoice and said it to me.

Damn, this guy!

I smiled along, but Xiaoice blushed with shame. Soon, after settling us, Lu Chengying left, saying let us rest first, and wait for the opportunity to take us to the street.

After Lu Chengying left, Xiaoice and I were a little embarrassed against each other, although we already had negative distance contact, but this is not my general's mansion after all, how to say it is also under the fence.
