Volume 1, Chapter 211: The Imperial Guard Commander Chu Ge
Two days later in the morning.
Ye Tingmu was reading Sun Tzu's Art of War on the eaves in the morning as usual.
Feng He was still the same as always, sheathing the knife, drawing the knife, and swinging the knife.
The sound of the broadsword breaking through the air and his grunting echoed in this medium-sized courtyard.
Suddenly, there was a sound of heavy footsteps outside the door, and if you listened carefully, you could hear the sound of armor colliding.
Ye Tingmu and Feng He stopped what they were doing vigilantly.
They all looked towards the door at the same time.
Only a moment later.
A group of soldiers appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
And Dongfang Yuan was also among the crowd.
"Commander-in-Chief, this is it."
Upon hearing this, the soldiers rushed inside one after another.
Each of them was dressed in black iron armor and wore an iron helmet with feathers reaching into the sky.
With a broadsword across his waist, the heavy armor made a sound with every step he took.
And the leader was even worse.
In addition to wearing the same clothes as everyone else, he also had a red cape on his back.
It matches his armor perfectly.
He is estimated to be nearly two meters tall, with broad shoulders and a thick waist.
He had a sharp face that exuded majesty without even being angry, and the eyebrows above his eyes were unusually thick.
Under the gaze of Ye Tingmu and Feng He, they walked straight into the yard and stopped in front of Feng He.
When the leader saw Feng He, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes, followed by joy.
He looked at Feng He for a few seconds.
Then he placed one hand on his left chest and suddenly knelt down on one knee.
Bow the bird's head.
He said in a clear voice: "I am Chu Ge, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial City Guard, and I pay my respects to His Highness Chao Yi."
The people behind him also knelt on one knee in unison.
Shan shouted, "We are here to see His Highness Chao Yi."
Although there were only dozens of them, they had very loud voices.
Such a shout.
Echoing throughout the Dongfang Mansion.
Dahei, who was sleeping soundly, was the closest and was woken up first.
He mooed twice to express his dissatisfaction.
At this time, several little guys in the house were also awakened. They curiously stuck their heads out and watched everything through the crack in the door.
Jinghong said: "They knelt down before Second Brother. Second Brother is indeed a tough guy."
Qingfeng said: "You know nothing, didn't you hear my eldest brother say that our second brother is a prince?"
Feng He was bewildered and looked at Ye Tingmu in confusion.
The other party knelt down as soon as he was told to do so, and he was not mentally prepared at all.
Ye Tingmu naturally knew the other party's identity at this time.
This was the second son that Dongfang Shuo had mentioned as his useful one.
Commander of the Imperial Guards, Chu Ge.
Now seeing this formation, he could only say it was reliable.
Including Chu Ge, there are nearly forty people in this scene.
They are all in the True Yuan Realm. Wow, this scene is even bigger than the one at Chao Yu.
Moreover, the leader Chu Ge has actually reached the third level of the Saint Realm, although he is slightly inferior to Xu Ping'an.
But we can't help but feel that they have military power.
He landed gracefully.
Came to Fenghe's side.
Said: "Let them get up."
"Oh oh... well my brother will let you guys get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The uniform tone and uniform movements all demonstrate the word "domineering".
After standing up, Chu Ge focused his eyes on Ye Tingmu and scanned him up and down.
"Your Highness, who is this?"
Facing the other party's question, Feng He replied without hesitation: "This is my eldest brother."
Chu Ge had received news before that the Fourth Prince had an older brother who raised him, named Ye Tingmu.
He asked, his tone somewhat respectful.
"You must be Ye Tingmu, Mr. Ye."
Edited by Ye Tingmu,
"Commander Chu, you are too kind. I am not a gentleman at all. I am just a first-class scholar."
Chu Ge clasped his fists.
"Thanks to your guidance, His Highness is safe and sound. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Ye. Please accept Chu Ge's greetings."
As he said this, he was about to bend down.
Ye Tingmu was quick to support his shoulders.
He laughed and said, "Commander-in-chief, I can't do that. I'm just a junior and can't handle that."
"You deserve it. You saved His Highness, so you are my benefactor. I must kowtow to you."
Ye Tingmu's face twitched when he heard this. Damn it...
No one would kowtow to others for no reason.
Besides, even if you, a saint, kowtow to me, I can’t bear it.
He quickly grabbed him.
"No, Commander-in-Chief, please don't. Feng He is my brother, and it is reasonable for me to protect him. What's the point of you kowtowing to me? My brother will still have to rely on you in the future."
Chu Ge didn't hesitate after hearing this and expressed his opinion immediately.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ye. Your Highness's mother has been kind to me. I, Chu Ge, will go through fire and water for Your Highness without hesitation. From now on, my life belongs to Your Highness."
"We will go through fire and water for your Highness, and we will not hesitate."
Ye Tingmu looked solemn.
It seems that Chu Ge is really a man of temperament.
Dongfang Shuo did not lie to himself. He could use Xu Ping'an and Chu Ge with confidence.
"Don't be polite. You've all been working so hard. Why don't you let your men go and rest? We'll rest for a day before setting off again."
Chu Tian clasped his fists.
"Mr. Ye, we are all practitioners, so we are not tired. Let's set off immediately to avoid any more trouble."
Ye Tingmu curled the corners of his mouth.
"Leaving now...isn't it a bit too hasty?"
It seems that this guy is not only a hot-tempered person, but also an impatient one.
They just arrived and set off without even taking a rest.
At this time Xu Ping'an also walked out from the side yard.
"Mr. Ye is right. We are indeed a little anxious."
When Chu Ge saw Xu Ping'an, he quickly took two steps at a time and trotted over to him.
Just get ready to give each other a hug.
However, Xu Ping'an predicted it in advance and took a step forward, leaving Chu Ge empty-handed.
"Hahaha...Brother Xu, what are you doing?"
"His Highness is here, Brother Chu, please be mindful of the occasion."
"Okay, as you wish."
Feng He was still a little confused.
But he didn't care. He listened to his elder brother anyway and did whatever his elder brother told him to do.
At this time Xu Pingan said: "Brother Chu, let your men go down to rest and eat, and don't disturb His Highness."
Chu Ge said: "Okay...but when do we leave?"
Xu Ping'an smiled.
"No hurry, no hurry, let's set off at sunset."
Ye Tingmu was speechless. Damn, this is not urgent. It's late at night...
He asked weakly, "Can't we leave tomorrow?"
Xu Ping'an smiled.
"Let's find a place to sit down and talk."
Chu Ge waved his hand.
"All of you go down and let the brothers have a meal. You will be on standby at any time."
"promise....."
After all the soldiers left.
Several people went into the house to discuss.
It was finally decided to march at night.
Xu Ping'an said that he could use the starlight to improve his strength at night, and even if Wang Changsheng came, he could hold off for a while.
The other party must have taken action.
So they chose to march at night and find a place to rest during the day.
It is 3,000 miles from here to Kyoto.
If we march quickly, we will arrive in 4 or 5 days.
But now, with Ye Tingmu and others and the carriage, it will take at least a month.
Xu Ping'an knew that Feng He and Ye Tingmu would definitely not agree if he abandoned the children.
So we choose to march at night and rest during the day.
Ye Tingmu did not object.
Instead, he ordered Xiao Hei to pack his luggage.
After learning about this, Wan Jin ran back home and packed his luggage.
