After all, he was a soldier guarding the imperial capital, so he knew Qiao Ye. He quickly apologized and said, "Your Highness, I am ignorant of Mount Tai, so I will go ask for instructions right now!"
There is a time limit for the opening and closing of the city gate. There is also a curfew in the imperial capital. Therefore, whether the city gate can be opened or not is not a matter of course for a soldier. He must ask for instructions. Qiao Ye nodded and was not annoyed.
, waving his hand to signal the other party to go quickly.
The soldier ran away in a hurry, and after about half a quarter of an hour, the soldier returned to the tower, smiled apologetically and said: "Your Highness, the city gate really cannot be opened before this hour, but my lord has said,
You can put a hanging basket down, what do you think, Your Highness?"
Qiao Ye said indifferently: "Okay!"
Qiao Ye just wants to return to the city now. As for how to go back, as long as he can enter the city.
The huge hanging basket was quickly lowered. Qiao Ye stood in the hanging basket. The soldiers at the top of the city dragged the rope and quickly pulled the hanging basket up.
Arriving at the top of the city tower, Qiao Ye looked around and frowned slightly.
There are quite a lot of soldiers on this city tower, at least thirty or forty. Generally, there is no need for so many people on night watch. It is enough to arrange about ten people to guard the city gates on each city wall with four walls.
This is the imperial capital of Xuanning Kingdom, and it is not a border city. There is no danger at all.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Although he had doubts in his heart, this was a matter of the city gate order. It was the other party's business to arrange as many people as they wanted to guard on the tower. Qiao Ye didn't bother to care about it. After saying this, he planned to walk towards the tower, but here
At that moment, the soldier from before stood in front of Qiao Ye with a smile and stopped Qiao Ye.
The armored man said: "Your Highness, my lord has said that it is not time to open the city gate yet. If you want to enter the city, you should wait until the time comes. For now, please go to the city tower to have a cup of hot tea and rest for a while."
Qiao Ye's expression instantly darkened.
This is simply nonsense. It's hard for the other party to come up with such a lame excuse.
If you don't let yourself enter the city, why bother to use a hanging basket to pick yourself up? Let yourself go up to the tower but don't let yourself enter the city. This is obviously inconsistent...
Suddenly, Qiao Ye raised his eyebrows and understood the other party's intention. Did he want to put him under house arrest?
Qiao Ye pondered for a moment and said directly: "Who is the city gate commander on duty tonight? Let him come out to see me!"
After all, he is the prince of Shenwu. There is no way that a group of soldiers guarding the city gate would dare to deliberately make things difficult for him, let alone intend to put him under house arrest. It can only be an order from their immediate superiors. These soldiers are just following orders.
Just follow the orders, and the entry and exit of the city gate will naturally be controlled by the city gate order.
The soldier hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Highness, please don't embarrass us. Let us go to the city tower to rest for a while."
"It's not me who is embarrassing you now, but you who are embarrassing me." Qiao Ye glanced at the other party and said, "I would like to advise you, while I am still planning to talk properly, call me the city gate order."
A soldier said disdainfully: "Why are you pretending to be majestic here? In the entire Xuanning City, no one knows what kind of thing you are, and you are still showing off your power..."
boom!
Before the soldier could finish his words, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. However, without any warning, Qiao Ye raised his foot and kicked the soldier in the chest, sending him flying away.
The surrounding soldiers were shocked for a moment. They didn't expect Qiao Ye to take action as soon as he wanted to, without any warning. They quickly drew out their sabers.
A fierce light flashed in Qiao Ye's eyes. The moment the soldiers drew their swords, their ankles suddenly twisted and spun like a top. Then they jumped up and kicked the soldiers' chests continuously.
Without giving the opponent a chance to raise his sword, he kicked all the soldiers in the surrounding circle away.
After the blow, Qiao Ye reached out again, grabbed a soldier's head, and pushed him out of the wall. The soldier was half hanging in the air, looking at the ground below, and suddenly screamed in fear.
"Didn't I tell you..." Qiao Ye looked around coldly and said: "While I am still planning to talk properly, do as I say, either get out of here or call me the city gate order.
."
"Qiao Ye, do you really want to see me?"
At this time, a joking voice sounded, and a young man walked up the stone steps on the side of the city tower, looking at Qiao Ye with a look of disdain on his face.
Qiao Ye raised her eyebrows, threw the captured soldier aside and said, "Qiao Yuan, it turns out to be you!"
Qiao Yuan, the legitimate son of King Hengshan, was not weak in cultivation. He had already reached the eighth level of physical training when he turned eighteen. Unlike most of the playboys in the royal family, he entered the military training early.
Speaking of which, if His Majesty wants to choose someone from among the sons of princes, Qiao Yuan is also a good candidate. However, this guy and Qiao Jing wear the same pants, and the relationship between their parents is very good, so Qiao Yuan and Qiao Jing
Naturally, the relationship between Jing and Jing is also very good. Both of them have the same enlightenment master in martial arts. If Qiao Jing wants to become the prince, Qiao Yuan will definitely stand behind Qiao Jing.
Qiao Ye looked at Qiao Yuando and said, "I want to go to the city."
Qiao Yuan clasped his hands and said, "Yes, but not now. When the time comes, after today's morning court, I will naturally let you into the city."
Qiao Ye frowned. Although there was indeed a set time for opening the city gate, since he was allowed to go up to the city tower, what reason was there for not allowing him to enter the city? If it was purely to embarrass himself, just block himself outside the city gate and let himself
Going up the tower, but not allowing yourself to enter the city, the meaning is more like being under house arrest, rather than embarrassment...
Why do you want to let yourself into the city after the morning court?
Qiao Ye had already made some guesses. It seemed that Qiao Jing thought he was dead and planned to attack in the morning.
Qiao Ye took a deep breath and said, "I'm going to enter the city now."
Qiao Yuan said contemptuously: "Are you deaf? I said, no!"
Qiao Ye said: "Then don't blame me for being rude."
"You're not welcome?" Qiao Yuan couldn't help laughing, pointing at Qiao Ye and said: "You want to be rude to me? You actually want to be rude to me?"
Qiao Yuan smiled wildly, seemingly crazy, but in fact it was full of irony.
"Qiao Ye, who in Xuanning City doesn't know who you are? Why are you pretending to be in front of me?" Qiao Yuan smiled enough, showed disdain, looked at Qiao Ye and said: "You want to fight with me? You
Do you dare to fight with me? Are you worthy of fighting with me?"
As Qiao Yuan spoke, he stretched out a finger provocatively towards Qiao Ye and shook it.
"Qiao Ye, if you really dare to fight me." Qiao Yuan snorted: "I can crush you to death with one finger!"
