Chapter 47

Are kings, princes, generals and ministers of different species?

At the end of Xuanwu Street is the majestic Imperial City! The towering red walls and the enormous Chaotian Gate, even from a distance, are still incredibly impressive.

Even though they were veterans of hundreds of battles and would not frown even under overwhelming pressure on the battlefield, the cavalry guards who were fortunate enough to follow the commander-in-chief into the city also began to breathe heavily!

The majesty of the emperor for thousands of years has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of every Chinese!

Liu Buqi frowned slightly. The Youzhou soldiers, including Yue Lingxi, were suppressed by the approaching imperial city and no longer looked like a mighty army!

Perhaps this was normal in the imperial era! But for her, who had traveled through time, this was just the emperor's residence!

In my previous life, the Forbidden City, which was much more magnificent than this one, was surrounded by tall buildings. Although its elegance was still there, it had long lost its aura of dominating the world!

Although the risks of Yue Lingxi and I's trip to the capital are high, the expected benefits are even greater!

In today's world, the more resilient Youzhou is, the more likely it is to seize the upper hand! Now that the armies that have fought for a hundred battles are intimidated by the imperial city's aura, what's the point of being tough?

"Lingxi, if it weren't for people like us guarding the border, the emperor in the imperial city wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully for a single day, right?"

The seemingly simple question was heard from far away, drawing Yue Lingxi's "angry stare"!

"Don't speak without restraint! The Imperial City is full of shadow guards. If His Majesty hears what you said, it will be a crime of disrespect, punishable by death!"

Liu Buqi sneered in response, "What's the big deal? Do the princes, generals, and ministers have any courage? Without our group fighting hard to maintain the situation, if the grassland barbarians and Yehe savages come charging over, the men in this imperial city may not be as courageous as the men in Youzhou!"

These words were extremely vulgar and bold, and could even be said to be heartbreaking! But "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different races?" This was an expression that Liu Buqi was familiar with.

But it really shocked Yue Lingxi and the Youzhou cavalry behind him!

Even Wang Sheng, Wang Changling's adopted son, who was known in Youzhou for his steadiness, was muttering to himself, "Hey, if it comes to military achievements, I'm worthy of being a general!"

Not to mention people like Xiao Junzi and Xiao Dengzi, who had a high possibility of being soldiers their whole lives, but were assigned to the same flag with Yue Lingxi by chance, and then stood out and became the leaders of the general flag!

Yue Lingxi's eyes looking towards the imperial city had become even deeper!

The gloomy and depressed look on this group of people was swept away, and even the horses' hooves seemed to be cheerful!

Yes! Are kings, princes, generals and ministers of different species?

Liu Buqi watched the changes with satisfaction, but this was not enough. The strength of Youzhou should not be based on ambition, but confidence!

The carriage was suddenly stopped. The eunuchs and female officials leading the way walked a long way before they realized that the Marquis of Anguo and his party behind them had stopped. They hurried back and found out.

Mrs. Anguo, who had been "causing trouble" since the morning, actually got off the carriage with her maid, took a warhorse capriciously, and jumped on it!

Under Yue Lingxi's inquiring gaze, Liu Buqi winked at him and laughed heartily, "It's really boring to be sauntering along in the carriage. Let's go, riding horses and whipping them is the true nature of us in Youzhou!"

After saying that, he took the lead and rushed towards the imperial city!

Yue Lingxi had already come to his senses somewhat, and hurriedly shouted, "Canglang, attack!"

This team of more than fifty people rushed forward like an arrow, passing by the stunned eunuchs and ladies-in-waiting and heading straight for the imperial city!

At this time, in front of the moat of the imperial city, the Regent Crown Prince Yue Chengqiu and several officials from the Crown Prince's Mansion were waiting here leisurely!

The current actual ruler of the Taiyue Dynasty is a slightly plump man who is less than 30 years old.

When a family is large and prosperous, it is sometimes harder for a son to inherit his father's business than to start from scratch! In the past two years, Yue Chengqiu has felt the contrast deeply!

When his father was alive, he had never condescended to personally welcome a foreign prince! But he could only, and must personally welcome this Youzhou Commander who had risen to fame in a short period of time!

Although we knew that he was able to escape the confiscation of property and extermination of the family back then, he must have hidden a lot of secrets, maybe even the thing that his father had to hide when he was killing people!

But Yue Wuji put too much pressure on himself! Even if I can't own this chess piece of Youzhou, I can never leave it to others!

Sudden!

With a whistle, the Royal Guards on guard outside surrounded Yue Chengqiu from all directions!

He was confused, and then he heard the sound of galloping horses!

When the sound of horse hooves got closer, he saw that it was a thin knight in black official uniform, approaching him quickly!

"Is this man crazy? He intends to assassinate me at this place and at this time?"

Yue Chengqiu’s inner monologue represents the doubts of the entire Imperial Guards at this moment!

But just before the knight was about to collide with his guard, the knight suddenly pulled the reins, and the white horse under his crotch suddenly raised its front hooves, roared, and then landed its front hooves steadily on the ground, and the man and the horse just stopped there!

The knight dismounted with a graceful somersault, clapped his hands a few times, and caressed the white horse affectionately. His indifferent look annoyed the royal guards who had just been frightened by the leaping white horse and were retreating repeatedly!

"Who are you? How dare you be so presumptuous in front of His Highness! Come on, capture me!"

A general in golden armor who looked like a commander shouted loudly, and several royal guards beside him were ready to step forward and capture this arrogant and rebellious guy!

At this moment, a team of black-armored knights rushed over following the white-horse knights!

The leader wore a black robe with a golden python as the background, and behind his cloak fluttered in the wind, a black flag with a gray wolf was held high by his guards. His speed did not slow down at all until he approached the Royal Guards' formation!

Although the commander of the Royal Guards was somewhat frightened, he did not take any more extreme actions because of the lesson learned from the Knight on the White Horse.

The Youzhou Canglang Flag has spread throughout the world with storytellers and Youzhou escorts!

The person who came was Yue Lingxi, Marquis of Anguo and Commander-in-Chief of Youzhou!

On the galloping horse, Yue Lingxi straightened up, lightly tightened the reins with one hand and raised the other hand slightly. The fifty cavalrymen behind him slowed down and stopped beside Liu Buqi.

The uniform dismounting movements and the rustling sound of armor came to an abrupt end after the team of people stood still. Only the "whoosh! whoosh" breathing sounds of the horses could be heard between the black and gold armor!

The Yanjing Iron Cavalry and the Youzhou Gray Wolves, who are disciplined and skilled in horse fighting, appeared in front of the imperial city for the first time with an indomitable momentum!

"Yue Lingxi, the commander-in-chief of Youzhou, has been ordered to return to the capital to report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Regent!"

Yue Lingxi's strong and powerful voice, accompanied by the military salute of hammering his right hand on his chest, foreshadowed that for the first time, the Youzhou forces would appear in the Taiyue Imperial City, the center of the empire, with an unprecedented tough attitude!
