Murong Yunqing walked through the streets with people coming and going. Looking at the shops on both sides of the street and the vendors selling goods along the street, Murong Yunqing actually felt like he was in another world.
Without the familiar feasting and feasting, and the piercing sound of horns and whistles, it seemed that there was even a feeling of traveling back to ancient times. The feeling of Youcheng to Murong Yunqing this night was more like the crowds on the Immortal Islands back then.
Fairy City.
Thinking of the Immortal City, Murong Yunqing suddenly realized that some years had passed since his cultivation path.
After spending three cents, he bought a bunch of candied haws on a stick from a vendor. Murong Yunqing ate it, walked around, and listened to the discussions of the people around him.
Yeyou City is the largest city in Xiqi.
Of course, due to year-round battles and year-round military support, Qizhou is far less wealthy than Luzhou and Qingzhou in the east. But in terms of military strength and bravery and prowess, Qizhou’s half-million demon-suppressing army
, is recognized as the strongest army.
Not only in the Taisho Dynasty, even if we look at the entire Tianzheng Continent, there is no army that dares to challenge the Demon Suppressing Army head-on.
Qizhou is located on the border, bordering the Monster Clan. Although there are indeed many good things in the Monster Mountain Range, for the people, a stable life is the most important. Coupled with the remote terrain, the area of Qizhou
Although it is large, its population is the smallest among all the states in the Taisho Dynasty.
Therefore, behind the seemingly huge number of demon-suppressing troops is the will of the entire people of Qizhou. Especially in Yeyou City, almost every household has soldiers.
As Murong Yunqing walked along the street, what he heard the most was that his son was from a certain family, how he was doing in the army, and his nephew was from a certain family, and what military achievements he had made. These seemingly ordinary conversations were heard.
Murong Yunqing, an outsider, couldn't help but feel a different kind of emotion.
In the tea shop in Gesang Town, after listening to the music played by the blind old man, Murong Yunqing felt that although he was in this Yeyou city that had almost become a legend of the Taisho Dynasty, what he felt was the sadness behind the glitz.
In this quiet city at night, Murong Yunqing saw that nearly fifty percent were women and children, and the men were mainly old people, mostly children, and very few young adults. Out of ten, there were only about two or three, and among these few
Among the few young adults, many have more or less disabilities and defects.
Seeing this scene, Murong Yunqing couldn't help but think of a poem he had read before: I believe it is evil to have a boy, but it is good to have a girl. If you have a girl, you have to marry your neighbor, but if you have a boy, you will be buried under the grass.
Murong Yunqing didn't know how many of those young men who had joined the army would come back in the end. If one day there really was a war with the demon clan, and the city would be filled with white tombs, Murong Yunqing felt a little sad just thinking about it.
However, Murong Yunqing also subconsciously did not think deeply about that aspect, perhaps for her, there might be better hopes for the future.
Different from Murong Yunqing's wandering after entering Ye You City, outside the Demon Suppressing Prince's Mansion, Ye Jinxin kicked open the half-closed door and strode toward the Demon Suppressing Prince's Mansion in a menacing manner.
The servants who were busy in the mansion were so frightened when they saw the angry look of their young master that they even dared not flatter him. They quickly moved out of the way one by one, for fear of accidentally provoking this young master at this moment.
Ancestors.
You must know that Ye Jinxin's reputation as a playboy is extremely famous in Qizhou and even the entire Taisho Dynasty. Others may not be able to realize it, but they, the servants and stewards of the Demon Suppressing Prince's Mansion, know it all too well.
Usually in this situation, if you accidentally make this little ancestor unhappy, a beating would be a minor offense. If you are not careful, you will have to go home and retire.
Ye Jinxin passed through a large number of servants, and under the astonished eyes of everyone, she kicked open a door with a fierce kick.
In the room, more than a dozen people were gathering together, with serious faces, as if they were holding some kind of meeting. But Ye Jinxin's kick made everyone in the room turn their heads and look at them with some anger.
No sudden intrusion
A quick guest.
However, when they found out that the person who came was Ye Jinxin, the No. 1 dandy in Xiqi Tianzi, most of them pretended not to see it and turned their heads again. Some of them smiled.
He shook his head and paid no attention to it. However, there were still several elders who looked at Ye Jinxin with unkind expressions, their eyes showing anger and disdain without concealing it at all.
"Hey, His Royal Highness is back!"
Sitting in the main seat, an old man who looked to be in his sixties saw Ye Jinxin suddenly come in. He quickly stood up, his round face full of a flattering smile, hunched over, and walked quickly to Ye Jin.
In front of Xin, he pulled Ye Jinxin to his previous seat.
The old man comforted the Crown Prince, stood aside and said with a smile: "What kind of wind has brought the young master back? If you come back, say hello in advance, so that I can be prepared."
While the old man was talking, he poured a cup of half-warm tea and handed it to Ye Jinxin: "The young master seems a little unhappy? Come on, come on, I just got the best tea from the Monster Mountain Range a few days ago.
Absolutely top quality, drink a cup of tea to calm down, don’t make yourself angry, it’s not worth it!”
Ye Jinxin took the tea handed by the old man and swallowed it in one gulp without looking at it. After drinking it all, he slammed the teacup on the table and said directly: "Ye Tao, if you don't give me anything today,
I’ll give you an explanation, don’t you think I’ll demolish this night mansion.”
After saying this, Ye Jinxin looked at the people in the room again. Regardless of their fearful, disdainful or thoughtful gazes, she directly opened her mouth and shouted: "What are you looking at? Is there anything good to see?
Why don't you all get out of here, my prince?"
When everyone in the room heard this, their eyes unconsciously fell on the hunched old man standing in front of Ye Jinxin. The old man waved his hand: "You go to my study first. We will talk about the previous matters later."
After everyone heard this, they didn't say anything more. They stood up directly and left the room without looking back.
Seeing that everyone had dispersed, the old man hunched over and sat on a chair next to him. He smiled and said, "Xin'er, what's going on? You're so angry all of a sudden."
Ye Jinxin looked angry: "You old guy, don't you know what's wrong with me? Without further ado, are there any masters in the house? Give me a hundred or so to borrow for a while."
After saying that, Ye Jin thought for a while and added: "An innate master."
"Hey, my young master!" The old man's originally calm face immediately turned into a bitter look after hearing what Ye Jinxin said: "Master, you think all innate masters are just cabbages.
Ah. It’s not like you don’t know how many people there are in our house. There are about a hundred or so. You can’t even tear down my old bones, let alone demolish the house!”
"I don't care. Damn it, I almost didn't give an explanation this time. I just want to wander around outside. The guards along the way were really weak. There were dozens of them, and only Qi Lan was left.
There is also that old bald-nosed man who runs faster than this prince when he encounters danger. He has almost reached Yeyou City, and he was assassinated. If this prince hadn't been so prosperous, he would have been punished long ago."
Ye Jin murmured in his heart and reached out to pour himself a cup of tea.
"Ye Tao, please stop talking nonsense to me. I know that you have cultivated many masters over the years! Hurry up and bring out all the good and masters you have hidden for me. I don't care.
You were transferred from the army, and you are still one of those secretly trained dead soldiers. If you don't give me a beating, do you believe that I will demolish the house right now!"
The old man hunched over and lowered his head, listening carefully to Ye Jinxin's words. When he heard the assassins, a cold light burst out from his eyes. However, in just an instant, the cold light disappeared, and the old man raised his head.
He started and looked at Ye Jinxin eagerly.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry!" The hunchbacked old man quickly comforted him, with a flattering smile on his face: "His Royal Highness, if you don't do this, those assassins who don't know how to live or die,
Just leave it alone for now. I will immediately send 20,000 demon-suppressing troops to wipe them all out. If you are still not relieved, then find out all the forces behind them and kill them all to vent your anger.
What do you think?"
"That's more or less the same! However, this prince wants a lot of masters!" Ye Jinxin said, his face suddenly became serious, and he looked straight at the old man.
The old man was a little embarrassed by Ye Jinxin's gaze, and asked timidly: "Jinxin, what's wrong?"
"Old man, I want to practice martial arts!"
"Practice martial arts?" The old man looked at Ye Jinxin's face that looked so much like his mother, and was a little surprised by his words. However, it was only for a moment. The old man smiled slightly: "What's the matter? You suddenly want to practice martial arts? Practicing martial arts can be a blessing.
bitter
Yes, are you sure you can handle it? Let me see, if you don’t listen to your second sister and learn more about military law and tactics, our family has 500,000 demon-suppressing troops, what else are you doing for a common man?
Why do you work so hard to please?"
When Ye Jinxin heard the old man mentioning his second sister, he waved his hand quickly: "Don't try to fool me with the second sister's tricks. Now in the entire Taisho Dynasty, who doesn't know that she taught Taixue Confucianism the benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, and wisdom?"
, Loyalty, filial piety, and brotherhood are directly at odds with the military strategist’s strategy, art of war, and Zhi Ge. I guess I have to be like her, but I don’t want to be scolded to death by the people in the world!"
"Oh!" The old man suddenly said in surprise: "His Royal Highness, you are actually afraid of being scolded by everyone in the world?"
When Ye Jinxin heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless.
…
The old man was sitting in the house, sipping freshly brewed tea. Shortly after Ye Jinxin left, an old figure in ragged clothes entered the house.
The old man who just came in looked like he was in his seventies or eighties. He didn’t have a few gray hairs left, and he was very slovenly. He was totally incompatible with the luxurious manor of the Demon King’s Mansion. In addition, the most impressive thing was
Yes, this sloppy old man's nose is actually bald, which adds a bit of joy.
The slovenly bald-nosed old man came into the house, closed the door behind him, and saluted the old man: "Your Majesty!"
The bald-nosed old man was none other than the old horseman who packed up his bed and ran away when he encountered danger when he was traveling with Murong Yunqing and Ye Jinxin.
And the prince in his mouth is none other than the real master of the demon-suppressing palace. He once expanded the territory for the Taisho Dynasty and defeated the demon clan forcefully, laying the foundation for the centuries-old prosperity of the human race.
The Monument is the only king of the opposite sex in the Taisho Dynasty, the Demon-Suppressing King, and the Night Eater!
"Old Wang, did the Crown Prince encounter anything when he was traveling this time?"
Ye Tao looked at this sloppy old man who was even older than him, with no trace of disgust in his eyes. When he spoke, it was as if he was chatting with an old friend.
"Well, it's nothing. A lot of people may have died, so I feel bad for you!" The bald-nosed old coachman replied with a smile: "Besides, this time, I also met a very interesting girl."
"Oh?" Hearing the old coachman's words, Ye Tao seemed to suddenly become more energetic, his eyes were full of smiles, and even his stooped back straightened up a little unconsciously: "Even you find it interesting,
It looks really good. Come on, tell me, what has this kid done along the way?"
Ye Tao and the bald-nosed old coachman chatted for a long time. When the bald-nosed old coachman talked about things outside Yeyou City, Ye Tao frowned slightly and said, "An innate master with extremely strong cultivation?"
The bald-nosed old coachman nodded, and his eyes gradually became serious: "Well, in terms of cultivation, he should not be weaker than me."
Hearing this, Ye Tao was even more surprised: "Oh? Wearing black armor and using a gun? If such a master is really a master of my human race, I should not know at all. Could it be that he is from the demon race?
Is there another demon king born?"
"It shouldn't be the human race." The bald-nosed old coachman shook his head: "But it doesn't look like the witch clan or the demon clan. The power behind the woman named Murong Yunqing may be extraordinary."
