Standing alone on the scorched rock, let the wind blow and waves, when the coastline gradually turned white, it turned into flames and flew back to Canglong City silently. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When he returned to the room, he found that Bian Yuzhu was still asleep, so Qi Yue did not bother, but went out of the house to pick up a branch and practice a set of ordinary swordsmanship in the courtyard.
After a set of swordsmanship was completed, Jian Yi just walked in with a person from outside the courtyard, and the two of them walked quickly to him and bowed down and said, "Your Highness, someone has already brought"
After waving his hand to signal the arrow to retreat, Qi Yue's gaze fell on the person who came, the other party was about thirty years old, dressed in black clothes unique to Poseidon Guard, and his face maintained a cold face that was thousands of miles away.
This person is Nangong Ze's commander who stayed in Canglong City to garrison Cover Hai, who is responsible for some secret things in the city on weekdays, and acts as a city guard at critical moments, as well as in charge of prisons and other duties, which is why Qi Yue came to him.
He didn't need to hide anything in front of his own people, and directly instructed him: "Go to the heavenly prison and prepare ten strong death row prisoners for me, don't say anything, and take them to the inner courtyard of the palace for me."
Originally, this kind of arraignment of prisoners had to go through the government office, but Qi Yue's identity determined that he had this privilege, and Fu Hai was expressionless when he heard this, but he just bowed down and said yes, and the person disappeared into the courtyard.
As soon as Fu Hai walked for a while, the door behind Qi Yue was pushed open, and Bian Yuzhu slowly walked out from inside.
"Why did you wake up so early?Do you have something to do?" Because she went to bed early last night, she didn't know that Qi Yue hadn't slept at all, so she rubbed her eyes and asked in a daze.
The girl just got up, her temples were scattered, her clothes were not neat, and the whole person was still half asleep and half awake, she walked and shook, and almost fell off the steps, which looked particularly cute.
Seeing this scene, Qi Yue quickly came to him and grabbed the jade hand, regardless of whether the other party agreed or not, he directly took her outside the courtyard: "Go, I'll show you my palace!"
......
Speaking of the imperial palace in the future, it is actually the inner city that was directly used after the renovation of the original imperial city.
Before, all the people who lived here were high-ranking officials and nobles, famous families, since the news of the city lord's mansion to build the imperial city, no one dared to live in it, and they all dragged their families to move to Dongcheng District to live, but it also saved Yu Ke a lot of hands.
The City Lord's Mansion was only a few hundred meters away from the main gate of the Imperial Palace, and there were guards in the distance.
"See Your Highness, are you going to enter the palace?"
Inevitably caused the people to besiege, Qi Yue deliberately changed into civilian clothes when he went out today, thinking that he would be stopped outside the main gate, but he didn't expect to recognize him as soon as he came out.
After looking at the person, it suddenly dawned on me. The person who came was not confused, with a beard and a rough voice, and when he saw Qi Yue, his eyes were full of reverence, and he couldn't help but take a few more steps forward.
"Yu Wei, didn't you go north with a large army, how could you guard the imperial city again?" Qi Yue seemed to be very familiar with each other, and his face showed concern.
Hearing this, the other party reached out and grabbed the back of his head, pointed to his empty right arm and smiled: "Some time ago, during the Battle of Quling, I accidentally broke an arm, although His Royal Highness tried his best to turn the tide and survive, but General Nangong said that he would not let me stay on the front line anymore, so I had to return to Canglong City on duty, and by the way, I would find some plastic talents for His Highness to send to the northern battlefield."
Although what he said was light, but it was not a taste in the center of Qi Yue's ears, a general who fought bloodily on the front line, but after being wounded, he could only return to the imperial city to guard the door, which made his face as a prince not very good-looking.
While the two were talking, many young soldiers surrounded them, all with their immature faces writing their admiration for the rumored prince with superb martial arts, standing far behind the commander but not daring to step forward.
Seeing this, Qi Yue beckoned to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old janitarian guard, signaling the other party to come to him.
Maybe he didn't expect the prince to summon him, the young man looked a little nervous, the spear in his hand was clenched tightly, and his back was even straighter, but from time to time he peeked at Qi Yue with his spare eyes, waiting for the prince's order.
Qi Yue showed a kind smile on his face, patted the young man on the shoulder at the same time, and asked, "What's your name, where does you live, and what is the army?"
As soon as he heard the prince ask his name, the young man's heart was as excited as you can imagine, and he quickly turned his head to Yu Wei and cast an inquiring look.
Yu Wei already knew the prince's intentions at this time, so he gave the young man an encouraging look and nodded slightly.
After receiving the order, the young man raised his head and said loudly, "Go back...... My name is Li Hu, the head of the family is in Xibailing Town, Canglong City, and the family has been a prodigal citizen for generations, and I heard that His Royal Highness is going to lead the Canglang people to restore the country, so my father asked me to reimburse the court."
Qi Yue deliberately used the system to check when he spoke, and found that although the other party's attributes were mediocre, he unexpectedly had a loyalty of up to 91 points, and immediately felt happy in his heart, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Very good, worthy of being my prolonged man, from today onwards, you will be my personal guard, and you will go to the City Lord's Mansion to report in a while!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Hu's companions were all proud of him, but he didn't expect that he would be favored by the prince on weekdays, and he was personally named the prince's personal guard, once the prince ascended the throne in the future, he would be a minister of the dragon, at least he could be a commander of the forbidden army, and they all sighed in their hearts that the other party had taken the **** luck.
After the young man recovered from the news, he found that Yu Wei had already walked into the palace with the prince and princess, and when a group of brothers came up to celebrate, he came to his senses: "I am favored by the prince! hahaha...... I'm going to be the prince's personal guard!"
......
Canglang is a thousand-year-old country, the nature of its palace is different from that of ordinary royal families, Qi Yue has also seen the palace of Yanting, which can already be regarded as boundless, but when he approached his palace, he found that he was actually lost.
Fortunately, Yu Wei and others followed at the critical moment, otherwise he would really lose an adult in front of Bian Yuzhu today.
The three of them walked through the walls of the palace to the garden where a large area suddenly appeared, and the strange flowers and plants everywhere filled the air with a fragrant fragrance, and the various koi fish in the pond roamed in patches, jumping from time to time, bringing the screams of young girls.
Letting the girl chase bees and butterflies and insects and fish in the garden, he turned around and pointed to his eyes and asked, "Is this the Imperial Garden?"
Yu Guang, as the commander of the forbidden army, although he has only been in office for a short time, these at least these places are still clear, so he pointed to the nearby buildings and introduced them one by one: "This was originally the imperial garden, but over the years it has been circled as a medicine garden by some people from the family, so a lot of exotic flowers and plants have been planted, and later Lord Nangong ordered people to move in some more cherished medicinal herbs, and this has become a forbidden place in the palace, and even our forbidden army cannot come in without your Royal Highness's orders."
When Qi Yue heard all his thoughts, he raised his eyes and found that this imperial garden covered a huge area, and with the palace ladies taking care of it, it was indeed a good place to cultivate elixir.
"It's really good, let's go inside and have a look," he said, reaching out to recall Bian Yuzhu, who was catching fish with his bare hands, and led her Rou Yi and the two of them strolled inside.
The two talked and laughed along the way, not feeling the passage of time at all, until the Yu Wei behind them reminded them, and then looked up with their eyes.
I don't know when the surrounding flowers and plants have gradually become scarce, except for some decorative plants, there are only palaces left in front of me, each palace has its own name, it seems to be a place where many people live.
"This is the forbidden place of the harem, and after His Royal Highness ascended the throne, the ladies and ladies all lived here, and the concubines in the main hall in front of him were forbidden to enter" Yu Wei already knew the buildings in the palace and explained casually.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as these words came out, some people suddenly looked gloomy and their mood became very depressed.
Qi Yue immediately noticed Bian Yuzhu's expression, and hurriedly comforted him in a hurry: "Don't worry, even if I ascend the throne, you can move around everywhere and don't have to pay attention to these rules."
As soon as he heard this, Yu Wei instinctively wanted to admonish, but he was directly glared back by Qi Yue's eyes, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything.
Although Bian Yuzhu's face was softened, there were tears in his eyes, and he looked at Qi Yue in a daze and said with a cry: "You...... Will you have many concubines in the future?"
A sentence suddenly made Qi Yue stunned in place, he wanted to say the word "of course", but he didn't say it, not to mention that he had already promised Chu Le'an that he would marry his daughter, and even the women he couldn't let go of until now in his heart were not less than three, how could he answer.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Yu Wei was stupid and wouldn't stay where he was, so he found an excuse to say that he was going to inspect, and hurriedly retired to leave the space for the two.
Looking at the girl's tender gaze, Qi Yue seemed to be about to melt into it, but in the end, he didn't say those two words, just held her shoulders with both hands, and said softly: "Don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, your status in my heart will never change."
After speaking, without waiting for the girl to cry, he rubbed her into his arms and hugged her tightly, and the two stood quietly in the inner courtyard of the palace for a long time, no one said anything, and the air only echoed with bursts of sobbing.
Tired of crying, Bian Yuzhu slowly fell asleep in Qi Yue's arms, she seemed to be very sleepy, and it seemed that whenever she was sad in her heart.
"Sleep, maybe this will make you feel better"
......
When Fu Hai entered the palace with ten death row prisoners, Qi Yue had already sent the girl back to the City Lord's Mansion, leaving nine arrow guards to guard, and only Jianyi received these people.
Cold Palace, this was originally a prison that dealt with criminal concubines in the past, because it was rumored that there were unjust souls in this place, so no one cared about it all year round, even during the reign of the family, and no one used it, and today it happened to be used by Qi Yue for experiments.
The ten people in front of him are all extremely vicious death row prisoners, who were thrown into death row by the iron-faced and selfless Ji Ping for committing rape and robbery, murder and stealing goods, etc., and after being released at this moment, they naturally tried their best to escape.
Because they heard Fu Hai call Qi Yue His Royal Highness when they were handed over, these death row prisoners suddenly felt a little cautious in their hearts, and some of them even began to discuss something in private.
