Therefore, throughout the dynasties, the area within two feet of the king's body was an absolute restricted area.
If you are not a confidant, don't get close.
Anyone who comes close will be killed.
And He Long has obviously stepped into this red line.
Ogawako's rebellious words made He Long abruptly take back the steps he had taken.
Perhaps it was not just because of Ogawako's words, but also because of the sound of sharp blades being unsheathed by the surrounding Jinyi guards.
Biting his cheek, He Long suppressed his anger, clasped his fists at Li Chen and said: "At last, the commanders of Gansu and Shaanxi gather together to see His Highness the Crown Prince. Because he is wearing military armor, it is inconvenient for him to salute. Please forgive me."
The Qin Empire had many rules that exempted people from etiquette. Among them, generals who were performing military duties were not allowed to kneel down and pay homage.
But most of the time, in order to show respect and respect, generals will at least kneel down on one knee.
At this time, He Long stood straight up and saluted with his fists clasped. Although it was in line with etiquette, there was no doubt that this was a sign of power to Li Chen.
Looking at the three or five generals still riding horses behind them, the sense of power is even greater.
Li Chen did not reply to He Long's words, but glanced at Xiaochuanzi.
He said calmly: "Xiaochuanzi, who can not dismount before the king rides?"
Xiaochuanzi did not expect that His Highness would ask him this question at this juncture. Without any hesitation, Xiaochuanzi replied almost instinctively: "It is the law of this dynasty that those who are over the age of seventy should not kneel before the court. Those who have made great contributions to the country of this dynasty,
It can be seen that you do not kneel down. It is clear that you do not kneel down. If there is only a widow among the loyal and loyal family, it can be seen that you do not kneel down."
"If you don't dismount when you see you, unless it is authorized by your Majesty, otherwise you will be regarded as contempt of your Majesty and shall be punished!"
Li Chen asked again: "Why didn't those generals dismount their horses and salute when they saw me?"
As soon as these words came out, He Long's pupils suddenly narrowed.
But Xiaochuanzi immediately came back to his senses, and a hint of evil flashed in his clear eyes.
He understood that this was a test that the prince gave himself in response to He Long's majesty.
If I don't have the guts to save face for the Crown Prince, then I will be the next to die.
After thinking about this clearly, Xiaochuanzi did not hesitate and borrowed a long knife from a Jinyi guard. Holding the long knife with a cold light in his hand, Xiaochuanzi quickly walked to the generals who were still riding horses and were at a loss.
"If you don't dismount when you see you, it will be considered as contempt for you... and you will be punished!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ogawazi raised his hand and stabbed the knife directly into the heart of the current general.
Although the general watched Xiaochuanzi coming, until the tip of the knife pierced his heart, he thought that Li Chen was not so courageous, and the little eunuch in front of him was not so courageous. All this was just
A scene that will definitely be stopped at the last moment.
The call to stop was called a stop, but it was a pity that He Long was the one who called the stop.
"stop!!!"
He Long's teeth were about to burst, and before he let out a roar, the tip of Xiaochuanzi's knife pierced the general's heart. The white knife went in, and the red knife came out, bringing out a handful of hot blood, which sprayed hot blood all over Xiaochuanzi's head and face.
scarlet.
The hot blood covered half of Xiaochuanzi's body. He was holding a sharp knife, his face was full of bloodthirsty madness, and his eyes were shining like a ferocious beast, and he kept walking towards the next general.
At this moment, the general saw everything happening and no longer dared to take chances, shouting: "Commander, save me!"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, others also rolled off their horses.
