The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, and all their words were in this smile.

Turned over the horse, galloped all the way, and went straight to Wuxing City.

The border under the rule of the East King, covering an extremely wide area, 20 cities, divided into four areas, respectively in different directions, Rong Bao City is the closest to the East Wangfu, about 200 miles away. Wuxing City is slightly farther away, about 300 miles away from Dongwangfu, and more than 100 miles away from Rongbao City.

It took two hours to gallop before he got out of the range of the five cities of Rongbao, and it can also be seen that the five cities of Rongbao cover a wide area.

The horses raised in the Dongwangfu are excellent, the endurance is extremely strong, galloped for two hours, slightly trimmed, and then ran for two hours, far away, you saw Wuxing City.

This Wuxing City looked from afar, but it was much smaller than the Rongbao City I saw before. Wuxing five cities, mainly used to train soldiers, daily Dongwang under the rule of the city of the people, if you want to join the army, will come to this Wuxing city, including Rongbao five cities, Dongxuan five cities, Pingjin five cities.

Under the rule of the Eastern King, there were 20 cities, with a population of about 2 million, and the cities had different roles and were responsible for different parts. Rong Baocheng is responsible for military salaries and taxes, Wuxingcheng is responsible for new soldiers, Dongxuancheng is responsible for logistics grain and grass, and Pingjincheng is responsible for military armor and sword soldiers.

Although the direction of regional responsibility is different, the people under its rule still live and work in peace and contentment, and each does its own thing. However, the focus and direction are different.

The people of Rongbaocheng do more business, because of the convenient conditions of Rongbaocheng, they are also handy when they sit up and do business. In Wuxing City, most people still farm for a living, but with the convenience of guarding Wuxing City, it is much more convenient if they want to join the army and earn fame.

Wuxing City covers an area not as vast as Rongbao City, but the city wall is almost as high, the two brothers rode horses to the gate of Wuxing City, but did not see any additional streets at the gate, there are only a few small stalls in front of the city gate, selling some tea and snacks and the like. There are not many pedestrians on the road. It's almost dusk, and although it looks early, it's already sunset.

After a day's journey, the two brothers were already tired, and the water and rice had not been eaten for a day, and at this moment, Huang Yuchen looked at the dim sum sold on the roadside stalls, and he couldn't walk.

Huang Yuanwu did not stop, pulled the reins of the horse, and went straight to the city gate, and Huang Yuchen had to follow behind.

Huang Yuanwu showed the Dongwang token to the sergeant guarding the door, and several sergeants immediately knelt down on one knee to meet the little prince. Huang Yuanwu was in no mood to speak, just waved his hand and motioned for Huang Yuchen to follow.

The two entered Wuxing City, followed the main street, and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion in front of them.

The streets of Wuxing City, compared to Rong Baocheng, are much more deserted, although there are also many shops on the left and right sides, there are many commodities, and there are many quantities, but there is no Wuxing City that is full of people and bustling. Huang Yuchen looked left and right, the streets of this Wuxing City are quite wide, and the ground is also paved with bluestone, which is very neat, compared with Rongbao City, it is a little less lively and a little more solemn.

After walking forward for a short time, I came to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the structure of this City Lord's Mansion was similar to Rongbao City, and there was nothing special about it. It's just that the doorkeeper stone beast at the door is no longer the lion before, but has become a class tiger, looking lifelike.

Huang Yuanwu and the two were already a little exhausted, Huang Yuchen stepped forward and knocked on the door, after a while, the door opened, and a servant poked his head out of the door, looked at the two with a puzzled face, and when he saw Huang Yuanwu, he was shocked, and immediately came out of the door, knelt on one knee, and shouted: "I've seen the little prince." ”

"Hurry up, is your city lord in the mansion?" Huang Yuanwu asked in a low voice.

"I was here, I received the news of the little prince, and the lord of Ye City counted that the little prince would come today, so he never went out. So saying, the servant stood up, stepped forward to take the reins of the two horses, and said, "Little prince, go in quickly." ”

Huang Yuanwu nodded, and entered the City Lord's Mansion from the main gate, with Huang Yuchen following behind him. And the servant took the two horses, and went into the courtyard through the side gate, and went to serve them.

The City Lord's Mansion of Wuxing City, looking at the City Lord's Mansion of Baocheng City, is more lively, at least the people who can see the activities in the courtyard, several servants saw Huang Yuanwu, and knelt down on one knee, Huang Yuanwu didn't say anything, followed the bluestone road, and went straight into the main room, Huang Yuchen followed, and the servants who knelt on one knee outside got up and went their own way.

As soon as I entered the main hall, I saw a person sitting on the main seat drinking tea, this person had gray hair and beard, a white face, a slightly short beard, and no wrinkles on his face, but looking at his face, he looked like a middle-aged man in his early thirties, and his eyes were indifferent. looked gentle and elegant, calm and unhurried. Seeing Huang Yuanwu and the others coming in, he smiled, got up to greet him, and said, "Yuanwu boy, I haven't seen you for a long time." Listening to the voice, it was a little old and hoarse.

Huang Yuanwu hurriedly took a few steps forward, grabbed the man's outstretched hands, and said earnestly: "Senior Ye, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Hahaha. Ye Guan laughed, raised his eyes and glanced at Huang Yuchen, Huang Yuchen only felt that a fine light shot out of the eyes of this Ye City Lord, straight into his eyes, and he couldn't help but close his eyes and no longer looked directly.

"Is this your new lieutenant, it looks a little familiar. Ye glanced at Huang Yuchen and asked Huang Yuan Martial Arts with a smile.

"Yes, yes. Huang Yuanwu laughed and said, "Newcomer, bring it out to experience and experience." ”

"Okay! Sit down!" Ye Guan laughed and motioned for Huang Yuanwu to take a seat, Huang Yuanwu took a few steps forward and sat down directly on Ye Guan's hand, but he was not sitting on the main seat. Huang Yuchen took a few steps forward, stood respectfully behind Huang Yuanwu, and said nothing.

"Tell me, I'm in such a hurry this time, but is there anything important?" Ye Guan sat down, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and asked.

"Senior Ye, don't talk about this yet. Huang Yuanwu saw that Ye Guan was unhurried, a little worried, and said: "We galloped all the way from Rong Baocheng, and we didn't stop on the road, we were already hungry, and when we arrived at Ye Senior's territory, why don't we take care of a meal first?"

"Haha, I was negligent. Ye Guan smiled when he heard this, and said, "I've already prepared it for you, go to the back and eat it yourself." After that, Ye Guanye didn't get up, and drank tea by himself. Seeing this, Huang Yuanwu stood up directly and walked to the back of the front hall, Huang Yuchen hurriedly followed, he was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he heard that there was food behind, so much care.

Bypassing the front hall, I walked a few steps forward, and there was a side hall, and I saw a table inside, on which all kinds of food had been placed at the moment, and it was steaming, presumably prepared just now.

Seeing this, Huang Yuanwu said to Huang Yuchen: "It's been a day, let's eat together today." ”

"General Xie!" Huang Yuchen's voice was slightly louder, as if he was deliberately trying to let Ye Guan outside hear it.

After that, the two of them sat down straight, and they didn't care about any image, and they ate nonsense, and their voices were everywhere.

In a moment, the table of food in front of him had been counted into the stomachs of the two of them, Huang Yuchen burped slightly, and then looked at Huang Yuchen, his face was full of red light, as if he was still a little unfinished. But looking at the table, everything that could be eaten has been counted, and he pouted, so he can only give up.

Huang Yuanwu smiled lightly, didn't say anything, wiped his mouth with a napple, no longer cared about Huang Yuchen, stood up, and went back to the front hall.

Seeing this, Huang Yuchen hurriedly wiped his mouth, followed behind Huang Yuanwu, and returned to the front hall.

Ye Guan was still sitting in the main hall at the moment, drinking tea unhurriedly, looking very calm. Only then did Huang Yuchen begin to carefully observe the main hall.

This main hall looks at it, but it is a little simple, not to mention compared with the City Lord's Mansion of Rongbao City, even if it is the wooden house in Qingfeng Village in his impression, the layout inside seems to be more luxurious than here.

The chairs on both sides seem to have been used for a long time, the original floating paint has fallen off, revealing the mottled wood inside, and the small table on one side is the same.

Ye Guan sat on the main seat, drinking tea slowly, wearing a simple robe, and he couldn't see the appearance of the city lord.

If this person met him on the street, he might think that he was a down-and-out scholar, but he would definitely not think in the direction of the city lord of Wuxing.

"Are these four city lords all strange people?" Huang Yuchen frowned slightly, followed Huang Yuanwu a few steps forward, and stood behind Huang Yuanwu.

Huang Yuanwu sat down on Ye Guan, picked up the teacup, took a sip gently, put down the teacup, smiled at Ye Guan, and said, "Good tea." ”

"What a fart. Ye Guan smiled softly and said, "My thing is the cheapest tea on the roadside, where is it?"

"The things of Ye seniors are good things. Huang Yuanwu smiled, picked up the teacup, and took another sip.

"Don't interrupt, you kid. Ye Guan smiled and said: "Let's say, what is the matter with you coming here this time? The issue of the new source of troops has its own officials docking with me, and it is not your turn to ask the little prince in person." ”

"This ......" Huang Yuanwu pursed his lips, not knowing whether he should tell the truth or not.

Seeing Huang Yuanwu's appearance, Ye Guan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter, there are also things that your Huang Yuanwu can't talk about? What trouble did you encounter? Xiao Yibo, that old boy bullied you again?"

"No, no, no. Huang Yuanwu waved his hand again and again, Xiao Yibo and Ye Guan had a little bad temper, they were tense when they met on weekdays, and they never spoke politely, they didn't want to get involved in this troubled water.

"Since it's not that, what is it, tell me the truth. Ye Guan stared at him, looking at Huang Yuanwu's appearance, as if he was a little annoyed.

"Senior Ye, you have a sharp mind, and you are an old man in Dongfu again, if I tell you, you must not be impulsive. Huang Yuanwu said tentatively.

As soon as these words came out, Ye Guan immediately frowned, glared at Huang Yuanwu, and said, "Say! Is something wrong with the prince?"

Huang Yuanwu was obviously stunned, before his words came out, Ye Guan had already guessed a seven, seven, eighty, eight ”

When Ye Guan heard this, he didn't speak, his brows were tightly locked, and his thoughts were flying. did not jump like thunder as Huang Yuchen expected, and directly stepped forward to rescue his father, but thought about it carefully.

"A person with the same name as the predecessors of the Demon Knower. Huang Yuchen looked at Ye Guan quietly, and said secretly in his heart: "I don't know how he will deal with this matter." ”

The surroundings suddenly became silent, and Ye Guan frowned and fell into deep thought. Huang Yuanwu sat quietly in his chair and didn't say a word.

After a while, Ye Guan spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, as if he had said this sentence with great difficulty: "Lord Wang...... Is it already deceased?"

Huang Yuanwu did not speak, nor did he move, his father's life and death are uncertain now, but he is besieged in the inner city, and it should be more auspicious. But from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to believe that his father had died.

"What about Ning Yi, what is he eating?" Ye Guan suddenly raised his eyebrows, glared at Huang Yuanwu, and asked, "He's here, how can he let the prince be in danger alone?"

Huang Yuanwu shook his head and said, "There is too little news from the front, and it is still unknown what the Demon Seniors are doing now. ”

"Rabbit cub!" Ye Guan suddenly slapped the table and said loudly: "I have already told the prince that this Yang Lan has ill intentions, let His Majesty pay more attention to it, how can he really let him succeed?"

Huang Yuchen was suddenly startled, the eldest brother didn't say anything to this Ye Guan, how did he know that it was Yang Lan who rebelled?
