In the north of Daxia Imperial City, the guards of honor of the Northern Mongolian royal family are slowly approaching. The Northern Mongolian emperor and the queen are personally approached, thousands of elite guards guard each other, and countless royal family worship is hidden in it. The scene is extremely shocking.
When an emperor entered another dynasty, both dynasties attached great importance to it, and no one dared to make a mistake.
The four Marquis of Wu went out of the city to greet them in person, and a battalion of forbidden troops cleared their way along the street. The atmosphere in the entire imperial city became tense. Countless soldiers and soldiers came and went in groups and groups to investigate all possible hidden dangers.
"Wuhou"
Su Yi passed by, and the soldiers immediately knelt down and saluted, respectfully.
"get up"
Ning Chen opened his mouth and said calmly, "Don't be too nervous, just patrol as usual."
"Yes"
A soldier took orders and got up to continue to inspect.
Ning Chen stepped forward and walked towards the North City Gate. According to the time, Mingyue and the others should have arrived.
At the north gate of the imperial city, ten miles away, the flags were flying, the Northern Mongolian guards opened the way, and around the royal guard of honor in the middle, the palaces enshrined and protected each other, and they never dared to relax along the way.
As the team approached, in front of the North City Gate, Su Yi stood still, and the four Marquis saluted in unison.
"No need to be more polite, you are already the Marquis of Daxia, you don't need to bow to me again"
Ning Chen looked at the four of them and said calmly.
Kong Yu, Changsun Yunxuan, Marquis Anling, Marquis Toshiba got up and stepped back half a step, none of them surpassed half a point.
Although the person in front of him has already relinquished the position of Marquis Wu, there is no one in the world who is more qualified to hold the word Marquis Wu than the former. Even if the current Xia Huang sees him, he will bow, let alone them.
"coming"
The sound of the wheels, the dust and sand flying gently, entered the eyes, and the looming canopy surrounded the team and quickly approached.
"Come on, let's meet the guests from afar"
Ning Chen said.
"Yes"
The four of them responded and went up together.
The Northern Mongolian team, the commander of the Imperial Guard, saw Su Yi walking towards him, and his heart was shocked. He immediately recognized the identity of the latter, and he didn't dare to be careless. He immediately raised his hand to stop the team and dismounted to show courtesy.
The next moment, the team separated, and under the canopy, a figure walked out and walked towards.
After a lapse of more than ten years, seeing each other again, the appearance remains the same, and everything has changed too much.
Looking at the girl dressed as an emperor in front of him, a gentle smile appeared on Ning Chen's face, and said softly, "Mingyue, are you alright?"
Familiar faces, familiar voices, tears overflowing in Mingyue's eyes, resisting the urge to rush forward, smiled brightly, and said, "It's always been good" strange greetings, although the worshippers around Beimeng feel strange, But no one dared to say much. The Marquis of Ming Dynasty in Daxia was not an ordinary person. His Majesty stayed by his side for a long time when he was young, and he must have learned a lot under his words and deeds.
Something they don't understand.
"I have seen Hou Ye"
Behind Mingyue, Amethyst saluted and said respectfully.
Ning Chen looked at the former, smiled, and said, "Amethyst, I haven't seen you for so many years, why haven't you entered the state of perfection?"
"Amethyst's aptitude is dull, making Hou Ye laugh"
Amethyst bowed her head.
"Oh, just joking, let's go, advanced city"
Ning Chen said with a smile, then turned around and led the way towards the imperial city.
Mingyue followed and did not return to the royal team.
The worshipers and guard commanders in Beimeng chose to remain silent, unwilling to upset His Majesty on this matter.
In the team, Ling Xiao frowned unconsciously when he saw this scene, but also suppressed his emotions, and followed the team to the Daxia Imperial City.
In the imperial city, the whole city was strictly forbidden, and the forbidden army lined up to welcome the arrival of the northern Mongolian team.
At the front, Ning Chen and Mingyue walked side by side, one dynasty Wuhou, one dynasty emperor, marching side by side, so natural, just like more than 30 years.
The once little girl has now grown into a famous Northern Mongolian emperor, with power all over the world.
"Can I still live in the Hou Mansion?"
Mingyue looked at the people around her, her delicate little face full of hope.
"Not this time"
Ning Chen smiled and said, "This time you are coming to my wedding with Xinyu as the emperor of Northern Mongolia. After all, it will be arranged by Hongluqing of Daxia to enter the Concierge Court"
"I do not want to go"
A look of dissatisfaction flashed across Mingyue's face.
"You can't be self-willed, now you are the emperor of Northern Mongolia, and it's just normal. This time, you must follow the rules."
Ning Chen persuaded softly.
"All right"
Seeing that the people around her refused to agree, Mingyue knew that this time she really couldn't live in the Hou Mansion without following the rules, so she could only give up.
After thinking about it, Mingyue glanced at the team behind her out of the corner of her eyes, and whispered, "Bad man, can I ask you something?"
"Let's talk," Ning Chen replied.
"Beimeng is now growing the Ling family. Although the Queen and the Wang family are holding them back, the strength of the Ling family is growing too fast. I feel that the Wang family and the queen are almost unable to hold back." Mingyue whispered.
"How to check and balance powerful officials, I should have taught you, why would such a powerful family like the Ling family appear?" Ning Chen asked in confusion.
"Behind this Ling family is Yang Hou," Mingyue replied.
"Yang Hong?"
Ning Chen frowned slightly and said, "If you don't say anything, I'm also about to ask why Yang Hong didn't come this time. Now he should be the strongest person in Northern Mongolia."
"Yanghou has been in seclusion for seven years, and he has not yet come out. One of the Ling family's generation is a disciple of Yanghou. Therefore, the power has grown rapidly, and the people in Beimeng do not dare to offend easily," Mingyue said honestly. "Cultivating and balancing powerful ministers is only a temporary method. The two most important things must not be lost. People's hearts still have military power. You are the emperor of Northern Mongolia. military power
In the hands of those people? "Ning Chen asked.
"I have 30% of the military power in my hands, 20% are in the hands of the descendants of the old Shangshu, and the remaining 50%, the Yang family's faction accounts for 30%, and the Wang family's faction accounts for 20%," Mingyue said briefly.
"Thirty percent of the military power is too much, Beimeng's troops are too concentrated, it is better to deal with it earlier," Ning Chen reminded.
"The military power in the hands of the descendants of the old Shangshu is good to say, but the power of the Yang family and the Wang family has taken root in the court, and almost half of the courtiers are inseparable from these two factions. If you want to take back this part of the military power, it is easier said than done" Mingyue said Sadly.
"Have I told you the story of releasing Bingquan with a glass of wine?" Ning Chen calmly asked.
"I did," Mingyue nodded. "Disposing of meritorious officials will arouse criticism from the court and the common people. This is not a wise move. However, officials who take advantage of power are different from loyal and meritorious officials. As long as they are willing to investigate, they will definitely have a handle of anger and resentment in their hands.
Whether you want to harm the nine clans, or keep your life, keep your name, seal the king and leave the army, it is up to you to choose between the two methods." Ning Chen said softly.
"How did Yanghou explain it?" Mingyue was a little confused.
"Yang Hong is the most loyal person in Northern Mongolia. As long as the evidence you have found confirms it, he won't say anything, but"
Speaking of which, Ning Chen looked at Amethyst on the side, and said with a smile, "It's not right to put trust in others. If Amethyst's strength is enough to deter those who are interested, you can also relax a lot."
Amethyst heard the words, a look of shame flashed in her eyes, her cultivation was still too low after all.
"Amethyst, take a few more trips to the Hou Mansion these days," Ning Chen said with a chuckle.
Amethyst was stunned for a moment, then she showed a happy expression, gave a respectful salute, and said, "Thank you, Marquis."
"I'll go too" Mingyue said dissatisfiedly.
"Amethyst's identity is just a girl, and coming to the Hou's mansion won't cause too much trouble. As an emperor of a dynasty, you can move your whole body. Do you want my Hou's mansion to become a vegetable market?" Ning Chen didn't feel good.
"too annoying"
Mingyue shook her head vigorously, and said, "I don't want to be an emperor for a long time. If the throne hadn't been passed on, I really wanted to go away."
"Ah"
Ning Chen chuckled, he really can't do anything about this, even if Fan Lingyue is alive, he can't solve this problem.
Seeing the smile on the former's face, Mingyue was even more dissatisfied, and quietly reached out and pinched him in revenge.
Ning Chen took a deep breath of cold air in pain, but he didn't dare to say a word, and he couldn't care about the girl beside him, so he could only hold back his voice.
Mingyue was a little happy in her heart, but she didn't show it, she put down her hand quietly, and continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
In front of the protocol house, Ning Chen sent Beimeng and his group to Hongluqing, who had been preparing for many days, and went forward to arrange the people's accommodation in detail, and did not dare to neglect.
"I'm back, Hou Mansion still has a lot of things to deal with, you rest first, and after the two Chi'er, there will be a banquet to entertain you," Ning Chen said.
"That kid Xia Chi, hmph, I'm angry when I see him," Mingyue said, curling her lips.
Ning Chen smiled lightly, and didn't say much, the palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh, and that little guy Chi'er was also grown up by him, so he couldn't be beaten up just because Mingyue looked at him unhappy.
"gone"
Ning Chen waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the Hou residence.
In the palace, Tianyu Hall, a Dark Dragon Guard appeared, knelt down and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the Northern Mongolian team has arrived at the Protocol Courtyard, and it was delivered by Lord Zhiming Hou personally, and there was no problem along the way."
On the dragon chair, Xia Chi heard the words, put down the memorial in his hand, nodded, and said, "I told the Marquis of Toshiba to ensure the safety of Beimeng and his party. I don't want to see anything happen at this time!"
"Yes"
His Royal Highness Dark Dragon Guard respectfully led the order, and then the figure disappeared and disappeared.
Hou Mansion, Ning Chen came back, and when the bright moon rose in the sky, he stood in the courtyard and waited quietly.
When Zi Shi arrived, a stream of light flashed over the Hou residence, and amethyst appeared, appearing in the Hou residence.
"See Lord Hou," Amethyst said in a salute.
"No need to be polite, Mingyue has a rest?" Ning Chen asked.
"Your Majesty has fallen asleep," Amethyst nodded.
Ning Chen waved his hand, and a red-colored sword flew out from the study and swept in front of him.
"There is not much time, there is no shortage of exercises and other things in Beimeng, and I don't need to teach them. Swords are killing weapons, so all I teach you are killing techniques." Ning Chen said sternly.
"Please give me your advice," Amethyst said respectfully.
"Need my help?"
At this moment, above the void, the streamers converged, and a beautiful and noble shadow came out, with a majestic breath, more than ever.
"Lady, stay safe." Seeing the person coming, Ning Chen said with a smile on his face.
