As the central location of the Chu State, Kyoto is strictly guarded. Under the strict layout, the entire Kyoto actually has three indestructible walls. The three walls completely divide Kyoto into three. The outer nine cities live in ordinary people, while the inner nine cities are the mansions of generals and ministers and the forbidden palaces.

After midnight, the residents of Kyoto had already slept peacefully, and there was no light in the city. On both sides of the flat road paved with gravel were various ancient courtyard walls and houses.

A luxurious carriage was driving slowly. Outside the window was a bright full moon. Ye Junji could see the scenery outside the carriage through the thick gauze curtain.

Although it was midnight, Ye Junji was famous in Kyoto. Moreover, it was easy to enter the nine cities outside, but it was a bit difficult to enter the nine cities inside.

However, during the day, I had a way to deal with it with Pei Ji in the maple forest. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I will be confident to enter.

The carriage went forward and soon saw a city gate tower that was two feet tall in front of it, blocking a large moonlight. This city gate and the city walls on both sides were completely different from the houses in the city. They were made of huge stones, tall and sturdy, exuding a simple and majestic atmosphere. The ancient and mysterious relief runes on the city wall show that this city wall was blessed by a lot of talismans and magic, and had strong defense capabilities.

Several torches were lit on the city gate tower, and the guards guarding the city were straight and without any slackness. At a glance, you can tell that they were elites who had been strictly trained. In terms of their demeanor and appearance, these soldiers were much better than those of the city gate guards in the outer nine cities.

"Stop!" A guard shouted loudly. Then there was a jog. The guard ran to the car lightly, with a rigorous tone without being arrogant. "The city gate has been closed long ago, and no one is allowed to enter and exit the inner nine cities at midnight!"

"Bold!" Pei Ji, wearing a hat and wearing a black robe, scolded: "Don't you recognize the carriage of the Duke of Qi's Mansion? The carriage is General Zhang, who was ordered to go to Beijing to pay tribute to the old lady of the Pojun Hou's Mansion!"

"They are just doing their duty." A lazy voice came from the carriage, and then a token from the Duke of Qi's Mansion was handed out.

Zhang Tian, ​​the son of Duke of Qi, was appointed as the chief supervisor of Hexi Road, and was close friends with the Marquis of Pojun Yeju. Now that the old lady of the Hou Mansion family has passed away, it is the etiquette to send a son to pay his respects.

The token had been seen, and the guard did not suspect that he was there. He hurriedly gave a military salute and wanted to release it.

Just as Pei Ji was secretly relaxed, he suddenly heard the sound of his hooves coming like thunder, alarming the world.

At the same time, a pair of guards in the building in the city looked alert, and they lined up in a font shape, and ran out in neat steps.

As the horse stepped on like thunder, more than ten horses came and came to the wind.

Although there are not many people, their momentum is as strong as thousands of troops. People are like tigers and horses. Horses are like dragons. On the horse's back, there are large bows on the left and scimitars on the right. Several generals with silver armor and silver helmets and white strips on their arms are solemn.

As they approached, a strong and solemn aura suddenly came, and the guards were all frightened.

They all looked at each other, and even the chariots and horses of the Duke of Qi's mansion were ignored in their eyes.

"I am Duan Xiaotian. I'm here to see the old lady of Ye's mansion go on a journey and open the city gate quickly!" The leader's voice was powerful and the shocking guards couldn't come back to their senses.

"Duan Xiaotian?" Ye Junji in the carriage narrowed his eyes slightly, and he already knew the identity of the visitor.

"But Xuzhou Right General Duan Xiaotian?"

“That’s right!”

The guard's eyes swept over several cavalry, and his expression was clear. These generals were all wearing the former Snapdragon Army armor, and were probably the generals under the Pojun Hou. Now that the old lady of the Hou's Mansion has passed away, how could they not come?

Without hesitation, he immediately waved: "Let go!"

As the city gate opened, Duan Xiaotian and others rode their horses in, without saying anything more. Pei Ji did not hesitate and followed in.

Ye Ju may not be considered a person in the Ye family's original sect. But Ye Ju is the most prominent among the military generals in Chu State. Even though he has been dead for a long time, now that his mother has passed away, many generals in the army still rushed to Kyoto to pay their respects, which shows their reputation.

Pojun Hou Ye Ju had a brilliant record. The Snapdragon Army under his command was the main force of the Chu State. No one dared to snatch the attack wherever the Snapdragon Army flag went. On the border guarded by the Snapdragon Army, people holding the Snapdragon Army flag could say a word that was more effective than the imperial edict of the Emperor of Chu State.

Such an invincible brigade, accompanied by Ye Ju's death, has now been disbanded. All the soldiers' robes are divided and returned to various military camps.

Under the bright moonlight, Ye Junji's carriage and horse slowly drove into the north area of ​​the inner Jiucheng. The north area was full of the general's mansion, which meant that the Beidou master killed.

These generals' houses are all extraordinary, and most of them are glaring lions outside the door.

As the carriage drove along, Ye Junji's hand holding the curtains became tighter and tighter. He was so familiar with everything here. But now, everything here is so far away from him.

"Pojun Hou Mansion!"

When the carriage drove past his home gate, Ye Junji felt mixed feelings. In his eyes, there seemed to be sadness and hatred.

"Father, although you have left and the Snapdragon Army has been disbanded, the military spirit of the Snapdragon Army has not disbanded! General Duan and others now perform their respective duties, are valued and taken over. You still have your beliefs in their hearts. This time, grandma passed away, and they also came to pay their respects.

After my son avenges you, I hope you can rest in peace!”

In the side alley of the Hou Mansion, Ye Junji looked a little cold: "Pei Ji, if the sky turned white, I hadn't arrived at the Liu family iron shop..."

Before Ye Junji could finish his words, Pei Ji had already knelt on one knee, and his voice choked: "Young Master, Pei Ji will definitely wait for you."

"You..." Looking at Pei Ji's pair of tiger eyes shed tears, Ye Junji felt sad: "Pei Ji, although our name is Master and servant, you and Qingwen have grown up with me since childhood, and their love is like brothers and sisters. If I say, if I can't come back, Qingwen, I'll ask you to take care of you!"

As he said that, Ye Junji stepped forward and hugged Pei Ji, and jumped into the Marquis' Mansion.

A high wall seems to be isolated from life and death.

Under the pale moonlight, Pei Ji's shoulders twitched slightly. Under the hat, there was an iron-blooded guard. But now, his eyes were filled with tears.

Since he was a child, he had been trained by the Marquis! Now that the young master is revenge alone, he can only go to a safe place to wait for news.

As early as Yunzhou, when Ye Junji sent him to Kyoto to handle the matter, Pei Ji had already seen the anger and plan in the young master's heart. The only thing he did not expect was that the young master actually wanted to avenge the marquis alone.

In the end, Ye Junji convinced Pei Ji. But for Pei Ji, this was undoubtedly a difficult torture.

"Young Master, if you can't come back, even if Pei Ji fights his life, he will avenge you and the Marquis!!! Even for ten or twenty years!" Pei Ji, who gritted his teeth, sweared silently in his heart, and then disappeared into the side alley in the carriage.
