"Princess Ning'er, the country is fragrant, delicate and beautiful, and the beauty is beautiful. Recently, the emperor's health is not safe, stubborn diseases have recurred, play the day to pray for peace and joy, the prince selected the horse, and is willing to celebrate the princess's wedding, and protect the emperor's longevity and health.

Under the whole world, the four poles of the world, all men who are above the age of sixteen, under the age of thirty, official eunuchs, seven meritorious names, Wentao Wuluo, handsome and elegant, healthy, and good-looking can enter the forbidden city to participate in recruiting relatives.

Those who participate in the recruitment need to pass the preliminary round, the preliminary round, the semi-final, the final, the finals, and the finals, as long as they stand out in the finals, they can become the princess's concubine, and at that time, the royal family will reward a territory as a princess dowry. ”

This good news was sent out by the imperial capital a month ago, when Ling Xia and they were lurking and marching in the juniper wood territory, although there was a notice posted on the city wall to recruit the princess, but Ling Xia and they were busy dealing with the inspection of the war guards, so they didn't pay attention to the content at all.

When they passed through the cypress frontier and entered the Yuxia frontier, they heard about the princess's recruitment of relatives, and unveiled a notice, looking at the content on it, Ling Xia's expression was a little complicated, and Xia Ning'er's peerless and beautiful figure appeared in his mind.

"Captain, now that we have entered the imperial capital, what should we do next?" The crowd gathered around him with a look of inquiry.

"Go and rob the princess." Ling Xia stuffed the notice into his arms, stood up with a sigh of shame, and looked at everyone with a confident face: "How about I snatch the princess over?" ”

"You?" Everyone looked at Ling Xia in amazement, and then they all said with a happy face: "Of course, if you become a concubine, a few of us will definitely follow suit, go and go, you have to go, we support you." ”

Hearing that Ling Xia was going to run for the horse, everyone at the scene, including Peng Lie, all encouraged Ling Xia to participate in the recruitment competition, especially Peng Lie, who was not like words, he not only encouraged Ling Xia to participate, but even offered to cooperate, willing to help Ling Xia domesticate some small animals to please the princess.

"Why are you so positive?" Ling Xia looked at Peng Lie with a wary expression.

Hearing this, Peng Lie laughed dryly with a cramped face: "I didn't have any hope for you before, but after you brought me to the imperial capital safe and sound, I suddenly looked at you, with your ability, I can't really marry a princess, I look forward to you being able to forgive me after you become a concubine." ”

"Good eye, you've found the right person this time." praised Peng Lie, Ling Xia didn't see it, and casually ordered: "Help me train two tigers first, if you can ride that, I'll give it to the princess as a mount when I go back." ”

"Tiger? That's not appropriate. Peng Lie shook his head: "Although I can tame a tiger, how can I send a girl a tiger?" What does this mean? Does it mean that the girl is a tigress? It's not suitable, it's not suitable, if you want me to see it, it should be good to train a parrot or thrush. ”

"Well, that makes sense." Ling Xia nodded in agreement: "Fortunately, you reminded me, otherwise I would have made a joke, tigers are indeed inappropriate, however, the princess doesn't like birds like parrots and thrushes, she should like birds of prey, so you can help me tame a bird of prey." ”

After instructing Peng Lie, Ling Xia called Lao Cui and Liu Piaoyi over, he quietly instructed, and when he heard Ling Xia's order, Liu Piaoyi looked at him with a solemn expression: "Are you going to deceive the official?" Oh my God, is that okay? If the other party ...... you"

"There's no way, it's clearly written on the notice, if you want to marry a princess, you must be a child of an official eunuch family or a person who is famous in the seventh grade, I am only the eighth grade now, and I am two levels away from the seventh grade, in order to qualify for the competition, I have to raise the rank."

Speaking of this, Ling Xia patted Liu Piaoyi's shoulder: "As long as you follow my plan and hide your whereabouts, everything will be fine, the more dangerous the place, the safer, you go to hide in the place I said, the Praetorian Guard will definitely not find you." ”

……

At the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Xia Yuanxiao was checking the military situation reports of the war guards in various places, and suddenly, a personal soldier hurriedly ran in, and as soon as they met, the other party reported to Xia Yuanxiao: "Lord Qi Shangshu, the S.H.I.E.L.D., Tiger Division, Xiang Kunlun's 10,000-person team, the original Yi Haojie's 1,000-person team, the 100-person team under his command, and the captain Ling Xia ask to see." ”

"Who? Who sees me? Hearing such a big title, Xia Yuanxiao was a little unable to come back to his senses for a while, and after he calmed down for a while and digested those titles, Xia Yuanxiao shook his head: "Ling Xia? The Ling Xia who escorted Peng Lie into the imperial capital? Quick, bring him in. ”

After a while, Ling Xia was escorted into Xia Yuanxiao's lobby by several soldiers, looked at Ling Xia carefully, looked left and right, Xia Yuanxiao couldn't help frowning: "Why is it just him?" What about Peng Lie? ”

"Lord Qiyu, he is the only one who has come, and the last general has never seen anyone else accompanying him." The officer in charge of guarding the yamen of the Ministry of Guards reported truthfully.

"You're Ling Xia?" After seeing Ling Xia nodding and confirming his identity, Xia Yuanxiao asked him in a deep tone, "How did you come to the imperial capital?" Why didn't I find you along the way? What about Peng Lie? Where did you send him? ”

"My lord, you asked so many questions at once, I don't know which one to answer you." Shrugging his shoulders, Ling Xia pretended to look at Xia Yuanxiao with an aggrieved face: "I'm here to ask you for an errand?" How do you treat me like a prisoner? ”

"Delivery?" Snorting coldly, Xia Yuanxiao looked at Ling Xia coldly: "The notice I asked you to hand over Peng Lie was sent out a few months ago, if you really want to hand over the errand, just hand over the people to the battle guards along the way, how can it be delayed until now?"

I have to say, you have some skills, so many battle guards along the way to check and intercept, and even the Praetorian Guards mobile patrol, but both of us actually didn't stop you, you can come to me unconsciously, I really admire. ”

"Thank you, sir, for the compliment." After thanking him, Ling Xia sighed and pretended to be apprehensive: "My lord doesn't know, after I saw the notice from the Ministry of War, I wanted to hand over Peng Lie to those battle guards nearby."

But I don't know what's going on? There was always a group of unidentified people following us, chasing us along the way, fearing that after Peng Lie was handed over, he would be killed, so I didn't dare to show my face, so I did this to personally hand over Peng Lie to the adults. ”

"You're saying someone is chasing you along the way?" Hearing this, Xia Yuanxiao thought for a moment, and then questioned: "You are obviously quibbling, there are so many battle guards along the way, after they receive Peng Lie, they will protect his safety, do those people still dare to kill people from the hands of the war guards?" ”

"My lord doesn't know, that group of mysterious forces not only has strange whereabouts, but also has strong martial arts, not to mention killing people from the hands of the battle guards, I think they even dare to kill the war guards, have you forgotten the two hundred-man teams that covered up our whereabouts? They've all been killed.

I suspect that the men who are tracking me must be in a gang with the people who attacked and killed the two centurion guards in White Rock Province. If I really handed over Peng Lie, the tragedy of the Baishi Provincial War Guards would be repeated, so I didn't show up to ensure the safety of the mission. Ling Xu argued.

Originally, Xia Yuanxiao was a little suspicious of Ling Xia, but after hearing this, he felt that there was some truth, and after muttering for a while, he looked up at Ling Xia: "Okay, even if what you say has some truth, then now that you have entered the imperial capital, can you hand over Peng Lie to me?" ”

"It can be, but ......" Speaking of this, Ling Xia looked at Xia Yuanxiao with an embarrassed expression: "I remember that the adults said in the previous notice that if I hand over Peng Lie to the Ministry of War, I will be able to be promoted to the next level, I don't know if this counts?" ”

"You mean that?" Glancing at Ling Xia contemptuously, Xia Yuanxiao instructed the soldier beside him: "Go to Zuo Shilang, just say that I ordered Ling Xia's rank and promotion to the seventh rank, and those ten captains under him will also be promoted to the rank." ”

"Yes, the last general commands." After hearing the order, the man quickly ran towards a house on the left side of the front hall, and after a while, the man returned to Xia Yuanxiao: "Lord Zuo Shilang has issued a promotion order, this is the token." After speaking, the man handed Ling Xia a token from the seventh-rank official rank.

"I've met your request, now you can hand over Peng Lie." Xia Yuanxiao said expressionlessly.

"Peng Lie? He's not in my hands, is he? Ling Xia blinked his innocent eyes: "I just consulted the adults and didn't count the content on the notice, and I didn't say that I would hand over Peng Lie." ”

After Xia Yuanxiao was stunned, he suddenly slapped the table angrily: "Presumptuous, you dare to play with me!" ”
